[0034] A foot bath device is a foot physiotherapy instrument. Generally, a physiotherapy component is provided on the foot bath device. Conventional physiotherapy components include a hot compress head or a massage head, etc. The hot compress head can perform hot compress on the local skin to relieve the soreness or pain of the user's skin. The massage head can massage the local skin to relieve muscle soreness. Generally, users will soak their feet in water in the foot bath device and cooperate with the physiotherapy component to perform leg massage. However, during use, the physiotherapy component is very likely to fall into the water. At this time, if continued to be used, on the one hand, it will cause damage to the hot compress head, and on the other hand, it may also pose an electric shock risk.

[0035] In view of this, please refer to Figures 1 - 4 , the present utility model provides a physiotherapy component 100 and a foot bath device 10.

[0036] According to the physiotherapy component 100 provided by the present utility model, it includes a housing 110, a skin-friendly member 120 and a water entry detection member 130 provided on the housing 110. The water entry detection member 130 is used to turn off the physiotherapy component 100 when it is confirmed that the housing 110 has fallen into the water. By providing the water entry detection member 130, the present utility model can detect whether the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water and turn off the physiotherapy component 100 in time when it is detected that the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water, which can effectively avoid the risks of damage and electric leakage.

[0037] In an alternative embodiment, the housing 110 adopts a split design, including a first housing and a second housing. The first housing and the second housing are detachably connected. The first housing and the second housing can be connected by the cooperation of a jack and a plug, or can be connected by the cooperation of a buckle and a slot. The split design of the housing makes the disassembly and assembly of the physiotherapy component simpler and more convenient. The skin-friendly part 120 is provided on the second housing and is detachably connected to the second housing. A contact surface is formed on the side of the skin-friendly part 120 facing away from the second housing. It should be noted that the contact surface is used to contact the human body. In an alternative embodiment, the skin-friendly part 120 can dissipate heat. When the user brings the skin-friendly part 120 close to the skin, such as the skin of the leg or the knee, the contact surface can hot compress the local skin of the user and relieve the pain or soreness of the user's local skin. In this embodiment, the skin-friendly part 120 can be made of a heat-conducting material, such as a rubber plate or a ceramic plate, etc., and a heating rod or a heating wire is arranged therein for heating; or a heating rod or a heating wire can be arranged near the skin-friendly part 120, and heat is transferred through the air medium to increase the temperature of the skin-friendly part 120. In other alternative embodiments, the skin-friendly part 120 can be set as an electrode. By being electrically connected to the micro-current module, it has an electrotherapy function. The current can stimulate the local skin of the user, which is beneficial to relieving discomfort such as soreness and pain. In another alternative embodiment, the skin-friendly part 120 is set as an electrode, and elements such as a heating wire are further arranged in the electrode, so that the skin-friendly part 120 has a heating function on the basis of the electrotherapy function. While hot compressing, current stimulation can be carried out, which can expand the application range of the physiotherapy component 100 and improve the user experience when used in cooperation with the foot bath 10.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the water inlet detection part 130 includes a pressure sensor 131 and a controller. The pressure sensor 131 is arranged on the outer wall of the housing 110, and the controller is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 131. It should be noted that when the physiotherapy component 100 is used normally, the pressure value of the housing 110 sensed by the pressure sensor 131 will not change greatly. When the physiotherapy component 100 accidentally falls into the foot bath 10, if there is liquid in the foot bath 10 at this time, during the process of the physiotherapy component 100 falling to the bottom of the foot bath 10, the pressure value sensed by the pressure sensor 131 changes continuously, and there will be a large pressure difference during the period of falling into the water. Further, the controller is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 131, and the controller will receive the pressure value information transmitted by the pressure sensor 131. When the controller calculates that the change in the pressure value exceeds a preset value within a preset time, it can be determined that the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water, and the physiotherapy component 100 is promptly turned off. The preset time can be set to 1 - 3 s, and the preset value can be set according to the cross-sectional area of the foot bath 10 combined with the density of the liquid.

[0039] It should be noted that an installation groove can be formed on the outer wall of the housing 110, a pressure sensor 131 can be arranged at the installation groove, and a waterproof layer can be encapsulated on the surface of the installation groove, so as to achieve the effect of waterproof installation of the pressure sensor 131. Of course, it is also convenient for the disassembly of the pressure sensor 131. In other alternative embodiments, the pressure sensor 131 can also be integrally formed with the housing 110 by secondary injection molding, so that the pressure sensor 131 and the housing 110 are integrally arranged, which makes the installation of the pressure sensor 131 more stable and the test effect better.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 2 , according to an embodiment of the present invention, the water entry detection member 130 includes a temperature sensor 132 and a controller. The temperature sensor 132 is used to detect the temperature of the housing 110, and the controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 132. Generally, the temperature of the housing 110 of the physiotherapy assembly 100 is at room temperature. For a few physiotherapy assemblies 100 with a hot compress function, affected by the temperature of the skin-friendly member 120 during heating, the temperature of the housing 110 may slightly increase, but it will also remain within 3-5°C near room temperature. When the physiotherapy assembly 100 is used in cooperation with the foot bath 10, the liquid contained in the foot bath 10 is heated, and the temperature of the liquid will be between 40-60°C. When the physiotherapy assembly 100 falls into the foot bath 10, the temperature of the housing 110 will increase under the action of hot water. At this time, it can be determined whether the housing 110 has fallen into the water through the temperature change of the housing 110. During actual use, the temperature sensor 132 will collect the temperature value information of the housing 110 in real time, and the controller will receive the temperature value information transmitted by the temperature sensor 132. When the temperature value reaches the preset temperature, it can be determined that the physiotherapy assembly 100 has fallen into the water and the physiotherapy assembly 100 can be turned off in time. The preset temperature can be set to any value between 40-60°C, and the user can set it according to their own usage habits of hot water temperature.

[0041] As described above, the temperature sensor 132 is used to sense the temperature of the housing 110. In an alternative embodiment, the temperature sensor 132 is arranged inside the housing 110 and close to the side wall of the housing 110, so that the temperature of the housing 110 can also be sensed. Specifically, please refer to Figure 2, the physiotherapy component 100 includes a circuit board 140 disposed within a housing 110. The temperature sensor 132 and the controller are both disposed on the circuit board 140, and the upper end surface of the circuit board 140 is disposed close to the inner wall of the housing 110. This arrangement is more convenient for installation, and the housing 110 also provides further protection for the temperature sensor 132. It should be noted that the circuit board 140 mainly functions to integrally install circuit components, and the controller, as one of the control components, is integrally installed on the circuit board 140. In other alternative embodiments, the temperature sensor 132 can also be disposed on the inner wall of the housing 110, and the temperature sensor 132 and the housing 110 can be integrally formed by secondary injection molding, so that the temperature sensor 132 and the housing 110 are integrally provided.

[0042] It should be noted that the physiotherapy component 100 provided by the present utility model can be used independently of the foot bath 10 or in cooperation with the foot bath 10. In the above embodiments, the opening and closing of the physiotherapy component 100 are controlled by the controller of the physiotherapy component 100 itself. When used in cooperation with the foot bath 10, it can also be electrically connected to the foot bath 10, and the opening and closing of the physiotherapy component 100 are controlled by the controller on the foot bath 10. The present utility model does not limit this.

[0043] Furthermore, the present utility model also provides a foot bath 10, which includes a foot bath body and a physiotherapy component 100. The physiotherapy component 100 is movably connected to the foot bath body. By movably connecting the physiotherapy component 100 to the foot bath body, it is possible to conveniently move the physiotherapy component 100, so that the physiotherapy component 100 can correspond to various parts of the human body, and the application range of the physiotherapy component 100 is improved.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 3, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, the water entry detection component 130 includes a Hall sensor 133 and a controller. The Hall sensor 133 is disposed inside the housing 110, and the controller is electrically connected to the Hall sensor 133. A magnetic member 210 is provided on the foot bath device body, and the Hall sensor 133 cooperates with the magnetic member 210. When the magnetic member 210 is provided on the foot bath device body, the Hall sensor 133 on the physiotherapy component 100 can sense the magnetic field of the magnetic member 210, and the strength of the magnetic field changes with the distance between the Hall sensor 133 and the magnetic member 210. Since the physiotherapy component 100 is movably provided, during normal use, the magnetic field intensity sensed by the Hall sensor 133 will change within a certain range. When the physiotherapy component 100 falls into the water, the magnetic field intensity sensed by the Hall sensor 133 is not within the preset magnetic field intensity range, so it can be determined whether the physiotherapy component 100 falls into the water. Specifically, the physiotherapy component 100 includes a circuit board 140 disposed inside the housing 110, and both the Hall sensor 133 and the controller are disposed on the circuit board 140. This setting is more convenient for installation, and the housing 110 also provides further protection for the Hall sensor 133.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the foot bath device body has an opening 220, the magnetic member 210 is disposed on the inner wall of the foot bath device body near the opening 220, and the physiotherapy component 100 is movably disposed at the opening 220. The magnetic member 210 is disposed near the water level line of the foot bath device body. Generally, when the physiotherapy component 100 is movably disposed at the opening 220, the distance between the two changes little, so the change in the magnetic field intensity sensed by the Hall sensor 133 is not large and is within the preset magnetic field intensity range. When the physiotherapy component 100 accidentally falls into the water, the distance between the two becomes larger, and the magnetic field intensity sensed by the Hall sensor 133 becomes smaller and is less than the preset magnetic field intensity range, so it can be determined that the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water. Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, in an embodiment provided by the present utility model, the foot bath device body includes a cover plate 230 movably disposed at the opening 220, and the physiotherapy component 100 is movably disposed on the cover plate 230. The cover plate 230 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the foot bath device body at the opening 220. The structure of the cover body limits the distance between the physiotherapy component 100 and the magnetic part 210 within a certain range. Therefore, the magnetic field intensity sensed by the Hall sensor 133 is also within a certain range. When the physiotherapy component 100 accidentally falls into the water, the distance between the physiotherapy component 100 and the magnetic part 210 becomes larger, and the magnetic field intensity will change greatly. Thus, it can be determined that the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water. In this embodiment, the physiotherapy component 100 can be connected to the cover plate 230 by a buckle, which is convenient for disassembly and repair. The physiotherapy component 100 disposed on the cover plate 230 can perform physiotherapy on the knee part, or the cover plate 230 can be rotated to attach the physiotherapy component 100 to the thigh or calf for physiotherapy. In other alternative embodiments, the physiotherapy component 100 can also be connected to the foot bath device body through a wire, and attention should be paid to the length of the wire not exceeding the height of the water level line.

[0046] It should be noted that the above several embodiments of the water entry detection component 130 can be used selectively or multiple of them can be used simultaneously. The present utility model does not limit this. The physiotherapy component 100 provided by the present utility model, by providing a water entry detection component 130 on the physiotherapy component 100, the water entry detection component 130 can detect whether the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water, and can timely turn off the physiotherapy component 100 when it detects that the physiotherapy component 100 has fallen into the water, which can effectively reduce the risks of damage and electric leakage, and improve the service life and use safety of the physiotherapy component 100.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model, rather than to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that various combinations, modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present utility model do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model, and should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
