Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of design and manufacturing of wearable products, and more specifically, to a heating device, a physiotherapy component, a physiotherapy device and a belt. Background Art

[0002] Wearable products with heating functions have become increasingly popular in recent years. However, the heating effect of related wearable products is often not uniform enough, resulting in inaccurate temperature control and even the adverse consequence of scalding users. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to make the heating effect more uniform, one aspect of the present application provides a heating device, including a heating unit and a heat-conducting component, wherein the heating unit has a first side and a second side, the first side can approach the target object to transfer heat, and the second side is used to install the heat-conducting component. The heat-conducting component is fixed to the second side. In such a design, the first side and the second side work together to achieve uniform heat distribution. In other words, the first side is responsible for providing heat to the target object, while the second side ensures the uniformity of the heat transfer process by combining with the heat-conducting component. This structural design helps to reduce the risk of discomfort or burns that may be caused by uneven heat distribution.

[0004] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the thickness of the heating unit is smaller than the length or width, and the first side surface and the second side surface are located on two sides of the heating unit that are away from each other in the thickness direction. The purpose of such a design is to minimize the distance between the first side surface and the second side surface, so as to enhance the effect of the heat-conducting member on evenly distributing heat on the first side surface.

[0005] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the orthographic projection of the heat-conducting member on the heat-generating unit covers the second side surface. By ensuring that the orthographic projection of the heat-conducting member on the second side surface completely covers the surface, heat can be transferred over the entire area of ​​the second side surface, thereby improving the uniform distribution of heat on the first side surface of the heat-generating unit.

[0006] In some embodiments of the present application, the heat conducting member is optionally attached to the second side surface. The heat conducting member is closely combined with the second side surface of the heat generating unit to ensure that the contact area between the two is maximized, reduce thermal resistance, and thus improve heat energy transmission efficiency.

[0007] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the heating device further includes a temperature sensor disposed between the second side surface and the heat-conducting member, and the sensitive portion of the temperature sensor is in close contact with the second side surface. In this design, the heating device increases the ability to monitor the temperature of the device by integrating the temperature sensor between the second side surface and the heat-conducting member. The sensitive portion of the temperature sensor is in close contact with the second side surface of the heating unit, which optimizes the accuracy and response speed of temperature detection, can monitor and accurately reflect the temperature changes of the heating unit in real time, and reduces delays and errors in the temperature detection process.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the heat conducting member has a groove on one side close to the second side surface, the opening of the groove faces the second side surface, and the temperature sensor is arranged in the groove, so as to ensure that the sensor directly monitors the actual temperature of the heating unit, rather than the temperature of the surrounding environment. In this way, the interference of environmental factors on temperature measurement can be reduced, and the accuracy of temperature monitoring can be improved.

[0009] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the opening size of the groove is 1-5 times the outer diameter of the temperature sensor. While ensuring that the groove can accommodate the temperature sensor and leaving enough space for installation and removal operations, it is ensured that there is as large a contact area as possible between the heat-conducting member and the second side surface, thereby optimizing heat transfer.

[0010] Another aspect of the present application provides a physical therapy component, including a heating device and a first electrode sheet and a second electrode sheet with an electric potential difference, wherein the first electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet are respectively stacked on the first side surface, and are used to contact a target object to form a circuit. The physical therapy component of the present application integrates a heating function and an electrical stimulation function, and is intended to achieve a more effective physical therapy effect by providing a dual treatment method of heat therapy and electrical therapy.

[0011] Another aspect of the present application provides a physical therapy device, characterized in that it includes a jacket structure and the aforementioned physical therapy component, wherein the physical therapy component is arranged inside the jacket structure. This design allows the physical therapy component to be effectively positioned and protected inside the jacket structure, while ensuring the accuracy of treatment and the portability of the device.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the jacket structure has a through hole, and the first electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet are exposed from the through hole. The electrode sheets exposed through the through hole can directly contact the target treatment area (such as skin), which helps the current of electrotherapy treatment to be more directly and effectively conducted to human tissue, thereby improving the treatment effect. This design allows the rest of the jacket structure to maintain a soft wrap around the user's body, and only hard or semi-rigid electrode sheets are used in necessary treatment areas, improving comfort when wearing. In addition, the design of exposing the electrode sheets makes them easy to clean and disinfect after use, which helps to keep the equipment hygienic.

[0013] Another aspect of the present application provides a waist belt, comprising the aforementioned physiotherapy device. The waist belt can provide heat therapy, electrotherapy or a combination of the two to the user through its built-in physiotherapy component, aiming to relieve waist pain, promote blood circulation, help muscle relaxation, etc. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following are preferred implementations of the present application. It should be noted that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1. In order to make the heating effect more uniform, one aspect of the present application provides a heating device, including a heating unit 1 and a heat-conducting component 2, wherein the heating unit 1 has a first side 11 and a second side 12, the first side 11 can approach the target object to transfer heat, and the second side 12 is used to install the heat-conducting component 2. The heat-conducting component 2 is fixed to the second side 12. Specifically, a heating device is a device for generating and transferring thermal energy. In the field of wearable technology, a heating device can be a small electric heating element embedded in clothing or wearable products. These elements can provide heat under user control to protect the target object from the cold environment or provide hot compress therapy to promote blood circulation. The heating unit 1 is the part of the heating device responsible for generating heat. The heating unit 1 can be based on different heating mechanisms, such as resistive heating, chemical reaction heating or other methods.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 The heating unit 1 has a first side surface 11 and a second side surface 12, wherein the first side surface 11 is the side of the heating unit 1 that is in direct contact with the target object, and its main function is to transfer heat. This side surface is designed to be close to or very close to the target object (such as a human body, clothing, or any object that needs to be heated) so as to effectively transfer heat energy directly to it. The second side surface 12 is located on the other side of the heating unit 1, opposite to the first side surface 11. The second side surface 12 is used to install or fix the heat-conducting member 2, and is connected to the heating unit 1 through the second side surface 12, so as to help the heat diffuse from the heat source to the entire heating unit 1, and ensure that the heat is distributed as evenly as possible on the first side surface 11 to avoid local overheating and uneven heating problems. In such a design, the first side surface 11 and the second side surface 12 work together to achieve uniform heat distribution. In other words, the first side surface 11 is responsible for providing heat to the target object, while the second side surface 12 ensures the uniformity of this heat transfer process by combining with the heat-conducting member 2. This structural design helps to reduce the discomfort or burn risk that may be caused by uneven heat distribution.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1. In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the thickness of the heating unit 1 is less than the length or width, and the first side 11 and the second side 12 are on two sides of the heating unit 1 that are away from each other in the thickness direction. In such a design, the heating unit 1 is configured to be flat, and the first side 11 and the second side 12 respectively constitute two opposite sides of the flat heating unit 1 along the thickness direction. The purpose of such a design is to minimize the distance between the first side 11 and the second side 12 as much as possible to enhance the effect of the heat-conducting member 2 on the uniform distribution of heat on the first side 11. Specifically, the heat-conducting member 2 receives the heat from the heating unit 1 through the second side 12, and after evenly distributing the heat in the heat-conducting member 2, the heat is fed back to the second side 12, thereby making the heat distribution in the heating unit 1 more uniform. If the second side 12 is far away from the first side 11, then the feedback of the heat-conducting member 2 to the second side 12 will not be so direct on the first side 11, and the temperature distribution on the first side 11 will not be so uniform. On the contrary, if the second side 12 is closer to the first side 11, the feedback of the heat-conducting component 2 to the second side 12 will eventually be more directly reflected on the first side 11, and the heat-conducting component 2 can more effectively conduct heat from the second side 12 to the first side 11 and promote uniform distribution of heat along the first side 11.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the orthographic projection of the heat-conducting member 2 on the heat-generating unit 1 covers the second side surface 12. Specifically, "orthographic projection covers the second side surface 12" means that when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the second side surface 12 of the heat-generating unit 1 (i.e., the line of sight is perpendicular to the second side surface 12), the projection of the heat-conducting member 2 completely covers the entire area of ​​the second side surface 12. By ensuring that the orthographic projection of the heat-conducting member 2 on the second side surface 12 completely covers the surface, heat can be transferred over the entire area of ​​the second side surface 12, thereby improving the uniform distribution of heat on the first side surface 11 of the heat-generating unit 1.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, the heat conducting member 2 is optionally attached to the second side surface 12. Specifically, the heat conducting member 2 is closely combined with the second side surface 12 of the heat generating unit 1 to ensure that the contact area between the two is maximized, reduce thermal resistance, and thus improve the efficiency of heat energy transmission. This close attachment can be achieved by physical attachment, using thermal conductive adhesive, etc.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 3. In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the heating device further includes a temperature sensor 3 disposed between the second side 12 and the heat-conducting component 2, and the sensitive portion of the temperature sensor 3 is in close contact with the second side 12. In this design, the heating device increases the ability to monitor the temperature of the device by integrating the temperature sensor 3 between the second side 12 and the heat-conducting component 2. The sensitive portion refers to the area or component of the temperature sensor 3 that is responsible for directly detecting or sensing temperature changes. The sensitive portion of the temperature sensor 3 is in close contact with the second side 12 of the heating unit 1. This configuration optimizes the accuracy and response speed of temperature detection, can monitor and accurately reflect the temperature changes of the heating unit 1 in real time, and reduces delays and errors in the temperature detection process. The real-time temperature information provided by the temperature sensor 3 can be used as feedback to optimize the operating parameters of the heating device, including adjusting the heating intensity, duration, and heating mode.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the heat-conducting member 2 has a groove 21 on one side close to the second side 12, the opening of the groove 21 faces the second side 12, and the temperature sensor 3 is disposed in the groove 21. In this design, the groove 21 of the heat-conducting member 2 provides a dedicated space for placing the temperature sensor 3. Placing the temperature sensor 3 in the groove 21 of the heat-conducting member 2 close to the second side 12 can ensure that the sensor directly monitors the actual temperature of the heating unit 1, rather than the temperature of the surrounding environment. This can reduce the interference of environmental factors on temperature measurement and improve the accuracy of temperature monitoring.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 . In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the opening size of the groove 21 is 1-5 times the outer diameter of the temperature sensor 3. On the one hand, the opening size of the groove 21 needs to ensure that the groove 21 can accommodate the temperature sensor 3 and leave enough space for installation and removal operations. On the other hand, if the opening size of the groove 21 is too large, the contact area between the heat-conducting member 2 and the second side 12 will be reduced (in this part of the opening of the groove 21, the heat-conducting member 2 cannot contact the second side 12), thereby hindering the heat from being transferred in the entire area of ​​the second side 12; ideally, this space should be minimized to ensure that there is as large a contact area as possible between the heat-conducting member 2 and the second side 12, thereby optimizing heat transfer. In other words, an overly large opening size will leave an unfitted area between the heat-conducting member 2 and the second side 12, which may affect the efficiency of heat transfer through this area. Ideally, the design should minimize this area to ensure that there is as large a contact area as possible between the heat-conducting member 2 and the second side 12, thereby optimizing heat transfer.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 . Another aspect of the present application provides a physical therapy component, including a heating device and a first electrode sheet 41 and a second electrode sheet 42 with a potential difference, wherein the first electrode sheet 41 and the second electrode sheet 42 are respectively stacked on the first side 11, and are used to contact the target object to form a loop. Optionally, the first electrode sheet 41 and the second electrode sheet 42 are respectively electrically connected to the first side 11 through a conductive cloth 43. The physical therapy component of the present application integrates heating function and electrical stimulation function, and aims to achieve a more effective physical therapy effect by providing a dual treatment method of heat therapy and electrotherapy. In the physical therapy component of the present application, the heating device transfers heat to the target object through its first side 11 to help relax muscles, relieve pain, and promote blood circulation. When the first electrode sheet 41 and the second electrode sheet 42 contact the target object, due to the potential difference between the two, a current loop can be formed in the target object, and this current stimulation helps to treat pain and promote muscle contraction and relaxation. The electrode sheet is directly stacked on the first side 11 of the heating device. This design not only saves space, but also enables electrotherapy and thermal therapy to act more accurately on the same treatment area, thereby enhancing the synergy of the treatment effect. This physical therapy component is suitable for a variety of medical and rehabilitation scenarios, such as sports injury recovery to accelerate the recovery process and reduce pain and swelling. It can also be used for chronic pain management, such as arthritis, cervical spondylosis, low back pain and other pain relief. It can also be used for muscle relaxation and strengthening, promoting muscle contraction and relaxation through electrical stimulation, which helps to enhance muscle strength and flexibility.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 . Another aspect of the present application provides a physiotherapy device, characterized in that it includes a coat structure 5 and the aforementioned physiotherapy component, and the physiotherapy component is arranged in the coat structure 5. This design allows the physiotherapy component to be effectively positioned and protected inside the coat structure 5, while ensuring the accuracy of treatment and the portability of the device. As the outer protection and support frame of the physiotherapy device, the coat structure 5 is designed to accommodate and fix the physiotherapy component, ensuring that the physiotherapy component is accurately positioned on the body part that needs treatment, thereby improving the treatment effect. At the same time, according to the use requirements, the coat structure 5 may have a certain flexibility, elasticity or rigidity. The design of the coat structure 5 can also take into account the user's comfort and portability, as well as easy to put on and take off. The physiotherapy component is designed to act on the target object inside the coat structure 5. Integrating the physiotherapy component into the coat structure 5 not only makes the treatment device easy to carry and use, but also protects the physiotherapy component from direct damage from the outside, thereby extending the service life of the device.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2. In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the jacket structure 5 has a through hole 51, and the first electrode sheet 41 and the second electrode sheet 42 are exposed from the through hole 51. The electrode sheets exposed through the through hole 51 can directly contact the target treatment area (such as skin), which helps the current of electrotherapy treatment to be more directly and effectively conducted to human tissue, thereby improving the treatment effect. This design allows the rest of the jacket structure 5 to maintain a soft wrap around the user's body, and only hard or semi-rigid electrode sheets are used in necessary treatment areas, thereby improving the comfort when wearing. In addition, the design of exposing the electrode sheets makes them easy to clean and disinfect after use, which helps to keep the equipment hygienic.

[0032] Another aspect of the present application provides a waist belt, comprising the aforementioned physiotherapy device. The waist belt can provide heat therapy, electrotherapy or a combination of the two to the user through its built-in physiotherapy component, aiming to relieve waist pain, promote blood circulation, help muscle relaxation, etc.
