In addition, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples.
[0032] A foot bath device is a physiotherapy device for washing and soaking feet. It usually has a container that can hold water or a medicated bath and has enough space for both feet to be fully immersed. Usually, the bottom of the foot bath device has functions such as massage and heating to provide a physiotherapy experience for users.
[0033] In the related technology, in order to cooperate with foot bath physiotherapy, an external hot compress device is often used to perform hot compress physiotherapy on a local area of the human body, so as to help users achieve physiotherapy on multiple areas of the body while soaking feet, thereby improving the physiotherapy effect. Traditional hot compress devices often have a fixed hot compress area, which causes some users to either not be fully covered during physiotherapy or have additional heat generation outside the area that needs physiotherapy, wasting energy consumption and reducing the user experience.
[0034] In view of the problems in the related technology, as Figure 1 shown, the present utility model provides a physiotherapy component, including a housing 10, a heating module, and an electronic control board 20. The housing 10 has an installation cavity, and a contact surface 1022 is formed on one side of the housing 10; the heating module is arranged in the housing 10, and the heating module is used to heat the contact surface 1022; and the heating module includes a plurality of heating modules 30, and the heating area of each heating module 30 corresponds to a different area of the contact surface 1022; the electronic control board 20 is arranged in the installation cavity, and the plurality of heating modules 30 are all electrically connected to the electronic control board 20, and the electronic control board 20 is used to control each heating module 30 to heat independently. When the hot compress device performs hot compress work, it expands blood vessels by providing a warm stimulus, increases the blood flow rate, promotes local blood circulation, which helps to transport nutrients and oxygen to tissues, promotes metabolism, accelerates tissue repair and waste excretion, so as to relieve symptoms such as muscle soreness, inflammation and swelling. An effective heat coverage area can achieve precise physiotherapy and avoid waste of energy. In this embodiment, the setting of a plurality of heating modules 30 can provide a more personalized, precise and safe hot compress effect to meet the needs and treatment requirements of different users, and solves the problem that it is difficult to meet the diversified needs of users in the related technology.
[0035] It should be noted that "multiple" described in this specification refers to two or more. For example, the multiple heating modules 30 in this embodiment refer to two or more heating modules 30.
[0036] It can be understood that independent control of multiple heating modules 30 can independently adjust the temperature of each module as needed, enabling users to select different temperature settings according to personal preferences and treatment requirements. This can provide a more personalized hot compress experience and meet the needs of different users. Moreover, local treatment can be achieved, that is, concentrating heat on a specific area for treatment. This is very beneficial for users who need to treat pain, inflammation, or muscle problems in specific areas targeted. Additionally, independent control of multiple heating modules 30 can also achieve temperature difference adjustment in different areas. For example, certain areas may require a higher temperature to accelerate blood circulation, while other areas may require a lower temperature to avoid overheating. This temperature difference adjustment can better meet the treatment needs of different areas. And independently controlling multiple heating modules 30 also helps to save energy and improve safety. Users can choose to only turn on the required heating modules 30 to avoid wasting energy. In addition, independent control can effectively prevent overheating in the hot compress area and improve the safety of use.
[0037] In this embodiment, the specific number of the heating modules 30 is not limited, and the number can be limited according to design requirements and different application scenarios during setting. Among them, the contact surface 1022 is divided into multiple different heating areas, and different heating areas are heated by different heating modules 30. By controlling the heating of different heating modules 30, the adjustment of the hot compress area on the contact surface is achieved.
[0038] During specific setting, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, it includes three heating modules 30, and the three heating modules 30 are respectively for three different hot compress areas. Users can select the size of the hot compress area based on the different parts of use. For example, when used for the knee, the overall area to be covered is relatively small at this time. Turning on a large-area hot compress will instead cause ineffective stimulation of healthy areas and waste of heat energy. At this time, one hot compress area of the hot compress head can be turned on to effectively cover the area to be physiotherapied and improve the safety of use. When used for abdominal hot compress, the area to be hot compressed is relatively large at this time, and a single hot compress area is difficult to meet the requirement. At this time, multiple hot compress areas of the hot compress head can be turned on to increase the hot compress area, so as to achieve full coverage of the area to be physiotherapied.
[0039] It can be understood that multiple hot compress areas in this embodiment can cooperate with a control program to achieve automatic adjustment of the hot compress area. For example, in the electronic control board 20, multiple hot compress modes can be set based on different use parts. Based on different hot compress modes, one or more hot compress areas can be automatically controlled to be turned on. Of course, the switches of the hot compress areas can also be manually adjusted, that is, by manually turning on the heating modules 30 of the relevant areas in different hot compress modes to achieve adjustment of different hot compress areas in different modes. Of course, as Figure 2 shown, in some scenarios, when it is necessary to perform hot compress on two areas at a certain interval, the hot compress areas at both ends can be independently controlled to work, while the hot compress area in the middle stops working, so as to achieve personalized adjustment of the hot compress area and meet the diversified needs of users.
[0040] In an embodiment provided by the present invention, continuing as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, a lens 40 is further provided on the physiotherapy component. The lens 40 is arranged on the side of the housing 10 in contact with the human body to form a contact surface 1022. The lens 40 can concentrate and focus heat energy, improving the hot compress efficiency and comfort of the physiotherapy component. Further, the lens 40 can help concentrate the heat energy in a specific area, increasing the temperature of the hot compress area, so as to more effectively transfer heat to the part to be treated, accelerate local blood circulation, and promote recovery. Through the focusing effect of the lens 40, the physiotherapy component can form a more concentrated and uniform heat distribution in the hot compress area, avoiding heat dissipation in the air and improving the hot compress effect. In addition, the lens 40 can also help reduce the heat dissipation of the heat energy to the surrounding environment, making the user safer and more comfortable during use and avoiding affecting the healthy areas outside the hot compress area.
[0041] In specific applications, the lens 40 can be made of glass materials such as quartz glass, which can withstand high temperatures and has good structural stability. It can also be made of some high-temperature-resistant plastics or silicones and other materials.
[0042] According to an embodiment provided by the present invention, an opening 1021 communicating with the installation cavity is provided on one side of the contact surface 1022, and the lens 40 is arranged at the opening 1021. The lens 40 and the housing 10 are fixedly connected by an assembly method. In this embodiment, the lens 40 is installed at the opening 1021, which is beneficial for the installation in the early stage and the maintenance and disassembly in the later stage.
[0043] Specifically, the lens 40 is a slightly inwardly concave structure as a whole, which enables the lens 40 to be in good fit with the human skin, facilitating the rapid transfer of heat and providing the utilization rate of heat energy.
[0044] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, a seal is provided on the periphery of the edge of the opening 1021, and the lens 40 is hermetically connected to the opening 1021 through the seal. The opening 1021 communicates with the installation cavity inside the housing 10, which makes it easy for some impurities, dust, etc. to enter the installation cavity through the opening 1021, resulting in a short service life of the components in the installation cavity and even affecting the normal function. In this embodiment, through the use of the seal, after the lens 40 is installed, the space between the edge of the lens 40 and the opening 1021 is sealed, thereby preventing a large amount of dust or impurities from entering the installation cavity and improving the service life of the components.
[0045] Specifically, the seal can be an O-ring, which is connected to the periphery of the edge of the opening 1021, and the edge of the lens 40 contacts the seal. During installation, the edge of the lens 40 presses the seal to cause a certain amount of deformation of the seal, thereby achieving a sealed connection.
[0046] In specific applications, the seal can be made of rubber (such as nitrile rubber, propylene rubber, fluororubber, etc.), and the rubber material can have good chemical corrosion resistance and temperature resistance. Silicone material can also be used.
[0047] It can be understood that when the physiotherapy component is used in cooperation with the foot bath, the water vapor in the foot bath is likely to corrode the internal components in the physiotherapy component. In this embodiment, through the use of the seal, a large amount of water vapor can be prevented from entering the installation cavity, protecting the components in the installation cavity and improving the service life of the components.
[0048] Specifically, the lens 40 has a hot compress area formed by a plurality of contact parts, and the plurality of contact parts are sequentially connected to form the contact surface 1022. Each hot compress area is provided with a plurality of heating modules 30. When performing hot compress on different parts, different hot compress areas are required to cooperate for hot compress physiotherapy. In this example, a plurality of hot compress areas are provided on the lens 40, and the lens 40 is directly in contact with the human skin to achieve heat transfer. Each hot compress area realizes independent heating control through different heating modules 30, improving its applicability.
[0049] It can be understood that different numbers of heating modules 30 can be set in different hot compress areas, and different temperatures can be regulated in different areas through different numbers of heating modules 30. For example, the number of heating modules 30 in the middle hot compress area is more than that in the surrounding area, which enables the middle area to provide a higher heating temperature. Of course, when controlling the plurality of heating modules 30 in the middle area, some of the heating modules 30 can be controlled to work to further adjust the heating modules 30 in the middle area.
[0050] In a specific example, such asFigure 2 As shown, the lens 40 is composed of three identical contact parts 401, namely the first contact part, the second contact part and the third contact part. A heating module 30 is arranged in each contact part 401 area. That is, each contact part 401 area represents a hot compress area, and each heating module 30 can realize the area heating of the lens 40 within its respective area.
[0051] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, the heating module set is arranged in the installation cavity, and the heating module set faces the contact surface 1022. That is, the heating end of the heating module set faces the contact surface 1022, so that it transfers heat to different areas of the contact surface 1022 through the air medium. For example, a lens 40 is arranged on the contact surface 1022, which enables the heating module set to transfer heat to the lens 40, so as to realize the transfer of heat through the lens 40.
[0052] It can be understood that by setting the heating module set independently, its setting is more flexible, and the absence of direct contact can avoid some thermal contact problems, such as oxidation, corrosion or mechanical contact failure, etc., thereby improving the reliability and stability of the physiotherapy component. And in this way, the heat reception in the same heating area of the contact surface 1022 can be made more uniform, thus improving the uniformity of heat distribution. As can be seen from the above, when selecting the connection method of the heating module set, it can be flexibly arranged according to needs to meet the design requirements.
[0053] In another embodiment of the connection of the heating module set, the heating module set is connected to the contact surface 1022. That is, different heating modules 30 are directly connected to different areas of the contact surface 1022, and the heating end of the heating module set is directly connected to the contact surface 1022, and the transfer of heat is realized through the direct connection method.
[0054] It can be understood that the direct connection can minimize the thermal resistance, thereby improving the efficiency of heat transfer. Through direct contact, heat can be transferred from the heating component to the component faster, making the heat conduction of the whole system more rapid. And it simplifies the design and structure of the physiotherapy component, reduces the contact resistance or heat transfer contact resistance between components, and improves the reliability and stability of the system.
[0055] According to an embodiment provided by the present utility model, the housing 10 includes a first cover body 101 and a second cover body 102, and the first cover body 101 and the second cover body 102 are fixedly connected to form the installation cavity. The components are arranged in the installation cavity. Through the installation cavity, the components can have a relatively stable working environment, and once problems occur in the internal components, maintenance or replacement will be required. In this embodiment, the housing 10 is formed by connecting two independent cover bodies, so that the installation cavity can be easily opened by disassembling the two parts of the housing 10. Such a design makes the maintenance and repair work more simple and fast.
[0056] In specific settings, the first cover body 101 is provided with a protruding plug, and correspondingly, the second cover body 102 is provided with a socket, and the plug and the socket are cooperatively inserted. This method is conducive to disassembly and assembly. Among them, the side where the opening 1021 is located is the contact surface 1022, and the contact surface 1022 is configured as a concave arc surface structure so as to be able to fit with the skin. By increasing the contact area with the body contact surface 1022, the pressure on the local skin is reduced, the discomfort and abrasion are reduced, and the product is made more comfortable.
[0057] In a specific example, the first cover body 101 and the second cover body 102 are made of the same material. Since a certain amount of heat needs to be withstood during use, a material with good heat resistance that can withstand high temperatures without deforming or releasing harmful substances is usually selected. Specifically, the first cover body 101 and the second cover body 102 can be made of one of ABS plastic, polypropylene (PP) or silica gel. Of course, the first cover body 101 and the second cover body 102 can also be made of metal materials such as stainless steel.
[0058] Another aspect of the present utility model further provides a foot bath device, including: a foot bath device body, and at least one physical therapy component as provided in any one of the above embodiments, and the physical therapy component is received in the foot bath device body.
[0059] Among them, the physical therapy component can be connected to the foot bath device body in a wired or wireless manner. Specifically, when connected to the foot bath device body in a wired manner, a flexible connecting member is used to connect the physical therapy component and the foot bath device body. When connected wirelessly, the foot bath device body realizes the transmission of data of the physical therapy component through a wireless transmission method.
[0060] Through the description of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can clearly understand that in each embodiment, by setting the heating module to have a plurality of heating modules 30, and the plurality of heating modules 30 are all electrically connected to the electronic control board 20, this enables the electronic control board 20 to separately control each heating plate to perform a heating operation, which enables the user to select the heating area and heating area according to their own specific scenarios, improves the applicability, and meets the needs of diversified scenarios. Further, by dividing different hot compress areas, different hot compress areas can be separately controlled, which improves the applicability and the safety of use.
[0061] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and are not intended to limit them; although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present utility model.
