DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present invention.

[0020] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the utility model provides an ultra-low temperature cold bath treatment device based on air expansion refrigeration, including a cold bath treatment system and an air expansion refrigeration system. The cold bath treatment system includes a deep low temperature cold chamber 101, a medium low temperature cold chamber 102, a low temperature cold chamber 103, and a rest room 104 that are independent of each other; a valve 105 is provided at the air supply port of the rest room 104, the low temperature cold chamber 103, the medium low temperature cold chamber 102, and the deep low temperature cold chamber 101; the air expansion refrigeration system includes a compressor 106, a heat exchanger 107, a regenerator 108, and an expander 109; the compressor 106 is connected to the heat exchanger 107, the heat exchanger 108, and the ... The outlet of the compressor 106 is connected to the heat exchanger 107, the first inlet of the regenerator 108, and the inlet of the expander 109 in sequence; the outlet of the expander 109 is connected to the inlet of the valve 105 through a branch pipe; the exhaust ports of the lounge 104, the low-temperature cold chamber 103, the medium-low-temperature cold chamber 102, and the deep-low-temperature cold chamber 101 are connected to the second inlet of the regenerator 108 and the inlet of the compressor 106 in sequence through branch pipes; the valve 105 is electrically connected to the control system, and the control system adjusts the opening of the valve 105 to change the ambient temperature in the cold bath therapy system.

[0021] Temperature measuring modules are installed in the lounge 104, the low-temperature cold chamber 103, the medium-low-temperature cold chamber 102, and the deep-low-temperature cold chamber 101 respectively. The temperature measuring modules are connected to the control system by electrical signals. The temperature measuring modules monitor the temperature changes in the cold bath therapy system in real time. The control system controls the opening of valve 105 and adjusts the low-temperature air flow rate according to the real-time temperature feedback to keep the temperature in the cold bath therapy system at a predetermined temperature.

[0022] It can be understood that in summer, valve 105 controlling the air supply port of rest room 104 is opened, and low-temperature air enters rest room 104 for cooling, thereby forming a suitable rest environment; by adjusting the opening of valve 105, the temperature can be controlled according to the actual needs of the user.

[0023] The operation process of the cold bath therapy system and air expansion refrigeration system is as follows:

[0024] S1. First, the compressor 106 and the expander 109 are running. The high-temperature air at the outlet of the compressor 106 is cooled and depressurized by the heat exchanger 107, the regenerator 108, and the expander 109. The low-temperature air from the expander 109 enters the cold bath treatment system to cool down the ambient air.

[0025] S2. The user enters the low temperature cold chamber 103, the medium and low temperature cold chamber 102, and the deep low temperature cold chamber 101 as needed, and the user is exposed to the cold air environment for cold bath treatment; specifically, the user enters the low temperature cold chamber 103 and the medium and low temperature cold chamber 102 respectively to initially adapt to the low temperature, and gradually removes the moisture retained on the body surface at different ambient temperatures; then enters the deep low temperature cold chamber 101 for cold bath treatment; the control system monitors the ambient temperature in the cold bath treatment system in real time, and changes the air flow by adjusting the opening of valve 105 to ensure the effect of cold bath treatment;

[0026] S3. The user finally enters the rest room 104 and acclimates to a suitable ambient temperature for recovery.

[0027] The low-temperature air in the air expansion refrigeration system directly enters the different rooms of the cold bath therapy system for heat exchange, so no additional heat exchange equipment is required, there will be no frost problem, and the equipment is economical.

[0028] As a specific implementation, the heat exchanger 107 is an air-cooled fin heat exchanger. The high-temperature air from the compressor 106 is cooled by heat exchange with ambient air.

[0029] The heat exchanger 107 can also use a cooling medium for heat exchange, which is specifically implemented as follows: the hot side of the heat exchanger 107 is connected between the outlet of the compressor 106 and the first inlet of the regenerator 108; the cold side inlet of the heat exchanger 107 is connected to an external cold water device, and the cold side outlet of the heat exchanger 107 is connected to the hot water supply pipe of the rest room 104. The high-temperature air from the compressor 106 enters the heat exchanger 107 to heat the external cold water, and after its own temperature is reduced, it enters the regenerator 108 and the expander 109; the hot water flows from the cold side outlet of the heat exchanger 107 to the rest room 104, supplying the rest room 104 with hot water for washing and heating all year round.

[0030] Compared with the steam compression refrigeration and liquid nitrogen evaporation refrigeration used in existing cryotherapy, this equipment uses air expansion refrigeration, which is safe, environmentally friendly, energy-saving and efficient. It recycles and reuses the heat energy of the air expansion refrigeration system, improves the overall performance coefficient, and meets the user's heat needs during cold bath therapy.

[0031] The exhaust ports of the rest room 104, the low temperature cold chamber 103, the medium and low temperature cold chamber 102, and the deep low temperature cold chamber 101 are all provided with a check valve 110, and the outlet of the check valve 110 is connected to the second inlet of the regenerator 108. The set check valve 110 allows the air to flow in one direction in the cold bath treatment system, effectively preventing the air in the cold bath treatment system from flowing back to the air expansion refrigeration system, affecting the refrigeration efficiency.

[0032] A connecting pipe is provided between the second inlet of the regenerator 108 and the outlet of the expander 109, and a second valve 111 for controlling the on-off is provided on the connecting pipe. The control system is electrically connected to the second valve 111 to control and adjust the opening of the second valve 111. The second valve 111 plays a bypass adjustment role to adjust the total air flow entering the cold bath treatment system.

[0033] Cameras, emergency stop buttons, and emergency telephones are installed in the rest room 104, low-temperature cold chamber 103, medium-low-temperature cold chamber 102, and deep-low-temperature cold chamber 101. The emergency stop button, control system, and valve 1 are interlocked. The user can quickly close valve 1 through the emergency stop button to block the entry of low-temperature air; the user can maintain information communication with the outside world through the emergency phone; external staff can obtain the real-time situation of the user through the camera. The installed cameras, emergency stop buttons, and emergency telephones greatly improve the safety of the cold bath treatment process.

[0034] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the description of the specific embodiment is only used to better understand the concept of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements or equivalent substitutions can be made according to the principle of the present invention, and these improvements or equivalent substitutions are also considered to fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
