[0033] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0034] As Figures 1 to 8As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a body steam device, which includes a fumigation chamber 11 that can be filled with steam, and a cover plate assembly 30 covering the top of the fumigation chamber 11; the cover plate assembly 30 includes a control device 36 and a receiving space 34 for receiving the control device 36, and the receiving space 34 is defined by at least one side wall and at least one bottom wall 321; a heat insulation chamber 35 is formed below the bottom wall 321, and the heat insulation chamber 35 is defined by the bottom wall 321 and at least one inner lining plate 33. The heat insulation chamber 35 is configured to reduce the heat transferred from the high-temperature steam to the control device 36, thereby providing heat insulation protection for the control device 36, and at the same time preventing the high-temperature steam from invading into the control device 36, ensuring the use effect of the control device 36.

[0035] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the body steam device further includes a housing 1 and a steam generating device 2. The housing 1 includes an outer shell and an inner shell. Among them, the inner shell defines the fumigation chamber 11, and a device chamber 12 for accommodating the steam generating device 2 is defined between the outer shell and the rear wall of the inner shell. The steam generating device 2 is configured to be able to deliver steam into the fumigation chamber 11 for fumigating the user's body. The tops of the device chamber 12 and the fumigation chamber 11 are both open, and the cover plate assembly 30 is attached to the tops of the device chamber 12 and the fumigation chamber 11. In this embodiment, a water tank 4 is further included. The water tank 4 uses a pump to deliver water to the steam generating device 2, thereby generating high-temperature steam that is delivered into the fumigation chamber 11 for fumigating the body. It should also be noted that the temperature of the high-temperature steam generated by the steam generating device 2 refers to the temperature higher than the surface temperature of the human skin; its high-temperature steam temperature is about 45°C - 65°C, and preferably, the temperature is about 50°C - 55°C. The steam generating device 2 can be a commercially available steam generator, which is convenient to use.

[0036] As Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the control device 36 is electrically connected to the steam generating device 2 by a wire to control the start and stop of the steam generating device 2. The control device 36 has a positioning protrusion 36b extending into the heat insulation cavity 35. A wire passing hole is formed in the positioning protrusion 36b, and a wire passing groove 333 for the wire to pass through is provided on the inner lining plate 33, so that the wire passes through the wire passing hole and the wire passing groove 333 in sequence and is electrically connected to the control device 36 and the steam generating device 2 respectively. The wire passing groove 333 is horizontally offset from the fumigation cavity 11. Preferably, it is located above the equipment cavity 12, so that the wire can directly penetrate into the equipment cavity 12 and be electrically connected to the steam generating device 2, thus avoiding the intrusion of high-temperature steam in the fumigation cavity 11 into the control device 36 to a certain extent. Further, a through hole 323 for the positioning protrusion 36b to pass through is formed on the bottom wall 321. The through hole 323 can be configured as an oval hole to better enable the positioning protrusion 36b to pass through, reduce the error influence generated during product processing, and improve the installation efficiency between the control device 36 and the bottom wall 321.

[0037] To ensure the heat insulation and waterproof protection effect of the control device 36, the cover plate assembly 30 further includes a mounting seat and a cover plate 37 pivotally connected to the mounting seat. The cover plate 37 is used to open or close the top opening of the fumigation cavity 11 so that the user's legs can extend in. As Figures 4 - 8 shown, the receiving space 34 is formed on the mounting seat. Specifically, the mounting seat includes an upper seat cover 31, an upper seat body 32, and an inner lining plate 33 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The upper seat body 32 has a bottom wall 321 and a plurality of side walls. The receiving space 34 is defined between the bottom wall 321 and the plurality of side walls. The upper seat cover 31 is attached to the receiving space 34, and the upper seat cover 31 has a positioning cavity 31a for positioning the control device 36 to fix the control device 36. The inner lining plate 33 has a cavity formed by being recessed downward. Its top end is open and is hermetically connected to the bottom wall 321 of the upper seat body 32 to define the heat insulation cavity 35. The heat insulation cavity 35 can reduce the heat transferred from the high-temperature steam to the control device 36, thereby protecting the control device 36 in the receiving space 34. Further, the control device 36 is arranged in the receiving space 34 and offset from one side of the fumigation cavity 11. In this way, the area overlapping with the fumigation cavity 11 in the vertical direction can be reduced, and further the amount of high-temperature steam contacting the heat insulation cavity 35 can be reduced, thereby reducing the heat transferred to the control device 36.

[0038] Further, as Figures 2 - 6As shown, the inner lining plate 33 has an arc-shaped bottom wall portion 331. The distance between the arc-shaped bottom wall portion 331 and the bottom wall 321 gradually decreases from the side away from the fumigation chamber 11 towards the side close to the fumigation chamber 11. With the above design, on the one hand, one end of the arc-shaped bottom wall 321 can be gradually transitioned to a horizontal state, so as to be hermetically connected with the upper seat body 32; on the other hand, the height of the heat insulation chamber 35 on the side of the equipment chamber 12 is greater than the height of the heat insulation chamber 35 on the side of the fumigation chamber 11. This design increases the heat insulation distance between the control device 36 in the top area of the equipment chamber 12 and the steam generating device 2, reducing the heat transferred from the steam generating device 2 to the control device 36; and the bottom of the inner lining plate 33 in the top area of the fumigation chamber 11 is in a horizontal state, which will not affect the height inside the fumigation chamber 11; and, as Figure 2 shown, there is a heat dissipation space between the steam generating device 2 and the inner lining plate 33, which can improve the heat dissipation effect of the steam generating device 2, so as to ensure the normal temperature when the control device 36 is working.

[0039] It should be noted that a sealing structure is provided between any two adjacent ones of the upper seat cover 31, the upper seat body 32 and the inner lining plate 33. The sealing structure includes a sealing groove and a sealing protrusion that are hermetically connected with each other. This design not only aligns and installs the two, but also ensures the sealing between the two; further, in order to improve the sealing between any two, a sealing rubber strip is also provided to improve the overall sealing of the mounting seat.

[0040] As a preferred implementation manner, the control device 36 has a protruding portion 36a extending into the fumigation chamber 11. A lighting device and / or a disinfection device are arranged in the protruding portion 36a. A first through groove 322 for the protruding portion 36a to pass through is provided on the bottom wall 321, and a second through groove 332 for the protruding portion 36a to pass through is provided on the inner lining plate 33. And there is a wall portion extending in the vertical direction between the first through groove 322 and the second through groove 332 to position the protruding portion 36a, so as to ensure the installation accuracy of the control device 36 and the mounting seat. Preferably, the wall portion includes a first wall portion extending downward from the edge of the first through groove 322 and a second wall portion extending upward from the edge of the second through groove 332. The first wall portion and the second wall portion are in abutting connection to surround the protruding portion 36a and position it. It should also be noted that the lighting device can be configured as an ambient light to increase the aesthetic feeling of the device; the disinfection device can be configured as an ultraviolet germicidal lamp for sterilizing the inside of the fumigation chamber 11 to ensure the hygiene of the device; preferably, the control device 36 also has a protruding portion 36a extending upward, and an ambient light can be arranged in the protruding portion 36a, which can emit corresponding ambient light from the outside to increase the aesthetic feeling of the device.

[0041] The mounting base further has a pivot seat for connecting the cover plate 37, and the cover plate 37 has a pivot shaft that cooperates with the pivot seat, so that the cover plate 37 can be turned over, which is convenient for the user to open the cover plate 37 during use and then extend into the fumigation chamber 11 for fumigation. There is no need to separately remove and place the cover plate 37, making it more convenient to use.

[0042] In this embodiment, the body vaporizer is used to fumigate the user's feet and legs. During use, the user can turn over and open the cover plate 37, then let the legs extend into the fumigation chamber 11 through the top opening, and control the steam generating device 2 to work through the control device 36 to continuously deliver high-temperature steam into the fumigation chamber 11, so as to fumigate the legs. The operation is simple and convenient. Of course, the body vaporizer in this embodiment can also be used to fumigate the whole body, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0043] As described above, only the specific embodiments of the present invention are provided, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
