[0036] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the features in the following embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9As shown, the present application discloses a steam bath device 100 with a drug fumigation function, which can generate drug vapor to fumigate the body, achieving the health care purposes of promoting blood circulation, relieving fatigue, massaging and physiotherapy, and relaxing the body and mind. In some embodiments, the steam bath device 100 is mainly used to fumigate the limbs of the human body. For example, in one embodiment, the steam bath device 100 is a foot bath machine, which can fumigate the lower limbs of the human body, that is, the legs and feet; in another embodiment, the steam bath device 100 can be used to fumigate the upper limbs of the human body, that is, the arms and hands.
[0038] The steam bath device 100 with a drug fumigation function includes a steam bath chamber 101 and a steam delivery channel for delivering steam to the steam bath chamber. A support pedal 13 is arranged in the steam bath chamber 101, and the support pedal 13 is used to support a human body part. For example, in this embodiment, the support pedal 13 is used to support the feet of the human body. A drug release chamber 130 communicating with the steam delivery channel is formed below the support pedal 13. A drug release device 14 is also arranged in the steam bath chamber 101, and the drug release device 14 is arranged in the drug release chamber 130; wherein, the drug release chamber 130 is configured to be able to hinder the flow of the steam to strengthen the contact between the steam and the drug release device 14.
[0039] The steam bath device 100 with a drug fumigation function provided by the present application, by arranging the drug release chamber 130, makes the flow of the steam in the drug release chamber 130 slow, so as to strengthen the contact between the steam and the drug release device 14 and improve the drug release effect.
[0040] In one embodiment, the steam bath device 100 includes a steam bath chamber 101 and a steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 fluidly connected to the steam bath chamber 101. The steam bath chamber 101 is for accommodating body parts, and steam is introduced into the steam bath chamber 101 to fumigate the body parts. The body parts are, for example, the lower limbs, upper limbs, etc. described above, and of course, other parts are also possible. The steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 is adapted to adjust high-temperature steam to suitable-temperature steam and deliver it to the steam bath chamber 101. It should be noted that the suitable-temperature steam refers to steam whose temperature is suitable for fumigating the body, and its temperature range is not absolute and can vary from person to person and from environment to environment. For example, in one embodiment, the temperature of the suitable-temperature steam is between 35°C and 55°C. The steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 includes a first steam channel 1021, a second steam channel 1022, and at least a pair of flow-dividing protrusions 111. Among them, the first steam channel 1021 is adapted to configure the suitable-temperature steam to be input from the bottom of the steam bath chamber 101; the second steam channel 1022 is adapted to configure the suitable-temperature steam to be input from the upper part and / or the middle part of the steam bath chamber 101; the pair of flow-dividing protrusions 111 are arranged at a set distance interval, and the first steam channel 1021 is defined between the pair of flow-dividing protrusions 111, and the second steam channel 1022 is defined outside the flow-dividing protrusions 111. When the suitable-temperature steam flows in the first steam channel 1021, it can partially cross the flow-dividing protrusions 111 and enter the second steam channel 1022. In this embodiment, the steam delivered to the steam bath chamber through the first steam channel 1021 flows through the drug release chamber 130, and the steam delivery channel includes the first steam channel 1021.
[0041] The steam bath device 100 provided in this application can make a part of the suitable-temperature steam be input from the bottom of the steam bath chamber 101, and a part be input from the middle or upper area of the side of the steam bath chamber 101, so that the suitable-temperature steam can quickly fill the steam bath chamber 101, reduce the temperature difference between the upper and lower areas in the steam bath chamber 101, and improve the fumigation effect on the body and the use comfort. Moreover, the steam entering the second steam channel 1022 comes over the flow-dividing protrusions 111, and the flow-dividing protrusions 111 have a blocking effect on this part of the steam, which can slow down the flow rate of this part of the steam and avoid the discomfort of the user caused by the relatively fast speed hitting the middle and upper parts of the steam bath chamber 101; at the same time, the blocking effect can also play a role in disturbing the flow, which is beneficial to making the temperature of this part of the steam entering the second steam channel 1022 be more appropriately adjusted, and avoiding the discomfort of the body caused by insufficient or uneven temperature adjustment of the steam, resulting in overheated, overcooled or uneven hot and cold steam.
[0042] In this embodiment, a flow-blocking convex portion 41 for slowing down the flow of the suitable-temperature steam in the second steam channel 1022 is further provided in the second steam channel 1022. The suitable-temperature steam in the second steam channel 1022 passes over the flow-blocking convex portion 41 and is input into the steam bath chamber 101. The flow-dividing convex portion 111 and the flow-blocking convex portion 41 are arranged in an alternating manner to construct a zigzag flow channel. By further providing the flow-blocking convex portion 41 in the second steam channel 1022, which constructs a zigzag flow channel with the flow-dividing convex portion 111, the flow rate of the steam input from the second steam channel 1022 into the steam bath chamber 101 can be further slowed down, and further turbulent flow mixing can be achieved, avoiding the rapid impact of the steam flow and the insufficient or uneven temperature distribution of the steam, resulting in discomfort caused by overheated, overcooled or uneven hot and cold steam. A drainage inclined surface 411 for guiding the suitable-temperature steam to flow out of the second steam channel 1022 is provided on the flow-blocking convex portion 41.
[0043] Please refer to Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the steam bath device 100 has a cavity surrounded by several walls and a partition 4 disposed in the cavity. The partition 4 divides the cavity into the steam bath chamber 101 and the steam temperature adjustment cavity 102. By providing the partition 4 in the cavity to divide it into two chambers, namely the steam bath chamber 101 and the steam temperature adjustment cavity 102, the structure is simple. Specifically, the cavity has a front wall facing the user during use and a rear wall away from the user. The partition 4 is disposed close to the rear wall and has a certain distance from the rear wall to form the steam temperature adjustment cavity 102 therebetween. It can be understood that the partition means that the steam bath chamber 101 and the steam temperature adjustment cavity 102 are two distinguishable parts of space, and it does not mean that they are isolated and not connected. On the contrary, in this embodiment, the steam temperature adjustment cavity 102 and the steam bath chamber 101 are in fluid communication with each other, and air can flow in and out between the two.
[0044] Please refer to together Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the partition 4 is integrally plate-shaped, and the flow-blocking convex portion 41 is provided at positions close to the left and right edges thereof. In this embodiment, the flow-blocking convex portion 41 has a certain width and is a hollow convex rib protruding towards the rear wall of the cavity and extending in the up and down directions; such a setting enables the partition 4 to be fixed to the rear wall by means of the flow-blocking convex portion 41 at the same time. Since the flow-blocking convex portion 41 is closer to the rear wall, several screw posts can be provided on the flow-blocking convex portion 41 or at positions on the rear wall opposite to the flow-blocking convex portion 41, and the partition 4 is fixed to the rear wall of the cavity by screws passing through the screw posts. In other embodiments, the flow-blocking convex portion 41 can also be provided as a thin plate-shaped convex plate.
[0045] There is a distance between the left and right side edges of the partition plate 4 and the rear wall to form side outlets 402 for the steam in the second steam passage 1022 to flow into the steam bath 101. The side outlets 402 are the outlets of the second steam passage 1022, which are elongated outlets extending vertically. In this embodiment, the elongated outlet extends from top to bottom and its length is not less than half of the height of the steam bath 101; thus, steam can enter the steam bath 101 from positions such as the upper part, the middle part, and the lower-middle part on the side, enabling the steam to fill the steam bath 101 faster and allowing steam to enter the steam bath 101 at various heights on the side, avoiding the feeling of steam stratification. In this embodiment, the side outlets 402 extend from the upper end to the lower end of the partition plate 4. In this embodiment, at least part of the area of the elongated outlet is provided with grid strip plates 42, and a number of grid holes are formed in the grid strip plates 42. The provision of the grid strip plates 42 facilitates the uniform dispersion of steam flowing out through the grid holes.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the steam bath 100 further includes a temperature measuring element 81 for detecting the temperature of the suitable-temperature steam, and the temperature measuring element 81 is arranged in the second steam passage 1022. Since the steam entering the second steam passage 1022 is blocked and turbulently flowed by the diversion convex portion 111, its mixing is relatively sufficient. By arranging the temperature measuring element 81 in the second steam passage 1022, the temperature measurement is more accurate. In this embodiment, the temperature measuring element 81 is arranged outside the flow blocking convex portion 41, so that the steam measured by the temperature measuring element 81 is the steam turbulently flowed through the zigzag flow passage formed by the diversion convex portion 111 and the flow blocking convex portion 41. The steam at this place is more fully mixed and the temperature measurement is more accurate. The temperature measuring element 81 is a temperature measuring probe, which protrudes into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 through the rear wall of the chamber.
[0047] The lower end of the partition plate 4 is provided with a bottom outlet 401 for the steam in the first steam passage 1021 to flow into the steam bath 101. The bottom outlet 401 is the outlet of the first steam passage 1021. In this embodiment, the bottom outlet 401 is formed by a distance between the middle part of the lower end edge of the partition plate 4 and the bottom wall of the chamber. The partition plate 4 is provided with an air suction port 403 near the upper end. The air suction port 403 communicates the steam bath 101 and the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102, and is used to suck the steam in the upper part of the steam bath 101 into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 to be adjusted into suitable-temperature steam, and then input it into the steam bath 101 from the bottom outlet 401 and the side outlets 402.
[0048] Since high-temperature steam is introduced into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102, in order to prevent the partition plate 4 from being too hot and causing scalding when contacting a human body part, a scald prevention part 43 is provided on the side of the partition plate 4 facing the steam bath chamber 101. In this embodiment, the scald prevention part 43 includes a plurality of protrusions configured to reduce the contact area between the limb and the partition plate 4 when the user's limb touches the partition plate 4. In one embodiment, the protrusion can be a solid column. The solid column has poor thermal conductivity and is relatively thick, which can reduce the risk of the partition plate 4 scalding the user. In this embodiment, the protrusion is a rib plate. The rib plate can be in the shape of a strip, an arc, a circle, a spiral, etc. While reducing the contact area when the user touches it, it can also form a pattern to enhance the aesthetics. For example, in this embodiment, the protrusion includes a plurality of arc-shaped and circular rib plates arranged in a plurality of diffused water wave shapes. It should be noted that the scald prevention part 43 in this embodiment prevents scalding by reducing the contact area; in other embodiments, the scald prevention part 43 can also be achieved by heat insulation means, such as setting heat insulation parts, coating heat insulation materials, etc.; in some other embodiments, it can also be that the partition plate 4 is wholly or partly made of heat insulation materials.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the steam bath device 100 includes a housing 1 and a cover body 2 covering the housing 1. An operation panel for operating the steam bath device 100 is provided on the cover body 2, and a recess for supporting the human legs is provided at the upper front side of the housing 1. The housing 1 encloses a chamber. The housing 1 includes an inner housing 11 and an outer housing 12 located outside the inner housing 11. Please refer to Figures 7 to 9As shown, in this embodiment, the inner shell 11 is a semi-frame shell with openings at the upper end and the front end, and the inner shell 11 forms a part of the wall of the chamber. The flow-dividing convex portion 111 is formed on the wall of the chamber, specifically on the inner surface of the rear wall of the inner shell 11. In other embodiments, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 may also be formed on the partition plate 4. In this embodiment, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 has a certain width and is a hollow rib protruding towards the partition plate 4 and extending in the vertical direction. In other embodiments, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 may also be arranged as a thin plate-shaped convex plate. In this embodiment, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 is further arranged on the bottom wall of the inner shell 11, that is, each flow-dividing convex portion 111 is in an L shape, and the pair of flow-dividing convex portions 111, that is, two, are arranged in a substantially parallel manner. The flow-dividing convex portion 111 and the flow-blocking convex portion 41 are also arranged in a substantially parallel manner. Of course, in other embodiments, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 and the flow-blocking convex portion 41 may not be parallel to each other or to themselves, for example, the pair of flow-dividing convex portions 111 may be in a trumpet shape that becomes wider or narrower from top to bottom. In this embodiment, the flow-dividing convex portion 111 is a continuous rib in the vertical direction. In other embodiments, it may also be arranged intermittently, so that a part of the steam can enter the second steam channel 1022 through the small openings at the intermittent joints to increase the amount of steam distributed to the second steam channel 1022. The steam passing over the flow-dividing convex portion 111 described in this application includes embodiments in which the steam passes through the holes and grooves on the flow-dividing convex portion 111 to pass through the flow-dividing convex portion.
[0050] In this embodiment, the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 is configured to be suitable for inhaling the low-temperature steam in the steam bath chamber 101 to mix with the high-temperature steam to form the suitable-temperature steam. The steam in the steam bath chamber 101 flows in from the bottom up and from both sides, and after fumigating the human body's limbs, the temperature decreases; especially near the upper part of the steam bath chamber 101, because it is connected to the outside through the knee position of the human body, the steam temperature here is relatively low. In this application, the low-temperature steam is inhaled into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 to mix with the high-temperature steam introduced into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 to form the suitable-temperature steam and then input into the steam bath chamber 101. In this way, the steam in the steam bath chamber 101 can be recycled. Compared with the air inhaled from the outside of the steam bath device 100, the low-temperature steam still has relatively high thermal energy that can be utilized, so that the energy consumption of the steam bath device 100 can be reduced. In other embodiments, the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102 may also be temperature-adjusted in other ways, such as by electrically heating the inhaled low-temperature steam or by using a refrigerant heat exchange method, etc.
[0051] In this embodiment, both the low-temperature steam and the high-temperature steam are introduced into the first steam channel 1021 for mixing. Specifically, a fan 5 for sucking in the low-temperature steam and a steam discharge port 61 for inputting the high-temperature steam are provided in the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102. Both the fan 5 and the steam discharge port 61 are between the pair of diversion convex portions 111. Among them, the fan 5 is disposed above the steam discharge port 61, and it drives the low-temperature steam to flow downward to mix with the high-temperature steam. The high-temperature steam has an upward tendency, and the low-temperature steam mixes with the high-temperature steam from top to bottom, resulting in a better mixing effect. In this embodiment, both the steam discharge port 61 and the air outlet of the fan 5 face downward, so that the low-temperature steam and the high-temperature steam are mixed during the process of flowing downward in the first steam channel 1021, and a part is discharged from the bottom outlet 401, and the other part passes over the diversion convex portion 111 and the flow blocking convex portion 41 and is discharged from the side outlet 402. In this embodiment, the fan 5 is a vortex fan, and its air outlet faces the steam discharge port 61. The vortex fan drives the low-temperature steam to enter the air axially and exit tangentially. The air volume is concentrated and the wind speed is high, and it has a good mixing effect when impacting into the high-temperature steam.
[0052] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, a support pedal 13 for supporting the limbs is provided in the steam bath room 101. Through holes are formed in the support pedal 13, and the outlet of the first steam channel 1021, that is, the bottom outlet 401, is located below the support pedal 13. The appropriate-temperature steam discharged from the bottom outlet 401 passes through the through holes and flows upward. In this embodiment, the support pedal 13 is for the user to step on with the feet, and a massage portion is further provided on the support pedal 13, which can massage the soles of the feet. The massage portion can be a protrusion, an electric pulse emitter, an electrically controlled massage head, etc., for stimulating the acupoints on the soles of the feet.
[0053] Below the support pedal 13, a drug release chamber 130 communicating with the steam delivery channel is formed. The drug release chamber 130 has a side air outlet 1301, and the airflow flowing out of the drug release chamber 130 through the side air outlet 1301 intersects with the airflow delivered to the drug release chamber 130. In this embodiment, the airflow direction delivered to the drug release chamber 130 is in the front-back direction, and the airflow direction flowing out of the drug release chamber 130 is in the left-right direction, and the two are vertically intersecting. By changing the airflow directions of the incoming and outgoing air in the drug release chamber 130, the flow of steam can be obstructed, enabling the steam to come into sufficient contact with the drug release device 14 and enhancing the release of the drug. In this embodiment, the support pedal 13 has a top wall 131 and a side wall 132, and the side air outlet 1301 is a plurality of air holes opened on the side wall 132. In this embodiment, the top wall 131 is airtight to prevent steam from directly flowing out of the drug release chamber 130 through the top wall 131. In another embodiment, the top wall 131 may also be provided with openings through which steam can pass, and the total area of the openings is not greater than half of the total area of the top wall 131. In this way, although a part of the steam can flow out through the top wall 131, most of the steam is still blocked and restricted within the drug release chamber 130 to come into sufficient contact with the drug release device 14.
[0054] Further, the drug release chamber 130 is configured such that the steam therein flows out of the drug release chamber 130 in a tortuous manner. Specifically, the drug release chamber 130 is surrounded by the support pedal 13 and the bottom wall of the steam bath chamber 101. Among them, on the steam flow path on the support pedal 13 and / or the bottom wall, there are riblets 133 that obstruct the steam flow. In this embodiment, the riblets 133 include a pair of riblets 133 provided on the bottom wall of the steam bath chamber 101 and a pair of riblets 133 provided on the support pedal 13. Among them, the pair of riblets 133 provided on the support pedal 13 are located outside the pair of riblets 133 provided on the bottom wall of the steam bath chamber 101, and the drug release device 14 is located between the pair of riblets 133 provided on the support pedal 13.
[0055] In this embodiment, the support pedal 13 is removably assembled in the steam bath 101, and the drug release device 14 is installed on the support pedal 13 so as to be adapted to be assembled in the steam bath 101 and removed from the steam bath 101 together with the support pedal 13. In this embodiment, the rear end of the support pedal 13 is inserted into the rear wall of the steam bath 101, and the front end of the support pedal 13 is clamped on the front wall of the steam bath 101 by a clamping member 134. The drug release device 14 includes a medicinal material containing frame, the top opening of the medicinal material containing frame is attached below the support pedal 13 to prevent the medicinal materials placed therein from falling, and the bottom wall and the peripheral side wall of the medicinal material containing frame are provided with hollow holes. One end of the medicinal material containing frame is pivotally connected to the support pedal 13 through a pivot shaft 142, and the other end is connected to the support pedal 13 through a buckle 141. When the support pedal 13 and the drug release device 14 are assembled in the steam bath 101 together, the drug release device 14 is suspended, that is, there is an air flow gap between the drug release device 14 and the bottom wall of the steam bath 101, which is beneficial to the entry and exit of steam in the medicinal material containing frame. In this embodiment, the buckle 141 adopts a button self-locking buckle, and the clamping and release of the clamping can be realized by pressing this end of the drug release device 14, and the operation is convenient. After the release of the clamping, the drug release device 14 can be rotated and opened from the support pedal 13. In other embodiments, the drug release device 14 can also be assembled under the support pedal 13 by other means, such as screws, hooks, etc.
[0056] The drug release device 14 is arranged close to the outlet of the first steam channel 1021. The drug release device 14 contains medicinal materials with health care or therapeutic effects, such as traditional Chinese medicinal materials like mugwort. After being infiltrated by steam, their medicinal properties can be better released into the steam to achieve steam fumigation of the human body and promote physical health. In this embodiment, the drug release device 14 is configured in the narrow space below the support pedal 13, and the steam output from the bottom outlet 401 enters this narrow space. Due to the blocking effect of the support pedal 13, the steam will form a certain aggregation in the narrow space where the drug release device 14 is located, forming a certain air pressure, which is beneficial to strengthening the contact between the steam and the medicinal materials and the extraction of the medicinal effect.
[0057] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the steam bath device 100 includes an inner shell 11 that encloses a chamber and an outer shell 12 disposed outside the inner shell 11. A steam generating assembly is arranged between the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12. In this embodiment, the outer shell 12 includes a front shell 121, a rear cover 122, a right shell 123, a left shell 124, and a bottom shell 125. An installation frame 3 is provided between the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12. The installation frame 3 includes a plurality of installation cavities that are separately arranged. The steam generating assembly includes a steam generator 6 and a water tank 7 for supplying water to the steam generator 6. The steam generator 6 and the water tank 7 are installed in different installation cavities. The steam generating assembly further includes a circuit board 8, and the circuit board 8 is also installed in an installation cavity different from the steam generator 6 and the water tank 7. Thus, by separately installing the steam generator 6, the water tank 7, and the circuit board 8 in different cavities, the mutual influence of each component can be avoided, and the safety of each component can be ensured. In this embodiment, the rear cover 122 is configured to be openable and closable. When it is opened, the water tank 7 can be exposed, and when it is closed, the water tank 7 is covered. The water tank 7 is detachably installed and can be removed from or assembled onto the installation frame 3 after the rear cover 122 is opened. The detachable arrangement of the water tank 7 facilitates taking it down to add water.
[0058] When in use, the user sits on the front side of the steam bath device 100, places the legs in the steam bath chamber 101, starts the steam bath device 100 to work. The steam generator 6 generates high-temperature steam and inputs it into the steam temperature adjustment chamber 102, where it is mixed with the low-temperature air flow inhaled by the fan 5 to form a suitable-temperature steam. The steam is transported to the steam bath chamber 101 through the first steam channel 1021 and the second steam channel 1022. The steam passing through the first steam channel 1021 also flows through the drug release device 14, so that steam with medicinal properties is generated in the steam bath chamber 101 to achieve fumigation of the user's legs and feet.
