For example, the functional device may include but is not limited to a low-frequency pulse current generating device, a motor, an air pump, or a heating device. The peripheral component 300 may include one or more functional devices. For example, the peripheral component may include a heating device and a motor to achieve hot compress and physical massage; the peripheral component may also include a low-frequency pulse current generating device and a heating device to achieve hot compress and current stimulation massage; the peripheral component may also include an air pump and a heating device to utilize the airbag bag to quickly inflate and deflate, expand and contract to generate a squeezing force to achieve the effect of massaging the human body and achieve hot compress. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the peripheral component 300.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the host 200 can be detachably connected to the peripheral component 300.

As another example, the detection module 208 may include a user input device, and the user input device is disposed on the main body 201. The user input device generates an identity indication signal in response to a user operation. For example, a plurality of user input devices are disposed on the main body 201, and each user input device corresponds to an external component of a certain identity, for example, a plurality of buttons are disposed, and each button corresponds to an external component of a certain identity, and any button generates a corresponding identity indication signal in response to a user's pressing operation. Alternatively, the user input device generates a plurality of identity indication signals in response to a plurality of user operations, and each identity indication signal corresponds to an external component of a certain identity.

[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 2As shown, the control system also includes a storage module 210 disposed on the main body 201, which is used to store functional instructions corresponding to the peripheral component 300. The control circuit 204 can read the functional instructions corresponding to the peripheral component 300 connected to the main body 201 from the storage module 210 based on the identity indication signal of the detection module 208, and send the functional instructions to the peripheral component 300 connected to the main body 201 through the first communication interface 202, so that the peripheral component 300 executes the functional instructions and generates corresponding interactive operations. In some examples, when the control circuit 204 does not store the functional instructions of the peripheral component 300 connected to the main body 201 in the storage module 210, the functional instructions of the peripheral component 300 are downloaded through the communication module 209, and the functional instructions are sent to the peripheral component 300 connected to the main body 201 through the first communication interface 202, and the downloaded instructions can be stored in the storage module 210.
