Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of intelligent wearable technology, in particular to an electric heating wearable EMS device. Background Art

[0002] The EMS (electric muscle stimulation) electric stimulation massage and heating function clothing products currently on the market adopt an innovative design solution to improve user experience and therapeutic effects. These products place a circle of heating material around the conductive sheet in contact with the human body, thereby achieving the function of heat therapy around the part of the human body that receives electrical stimulation, rather than performing heat therapy on the same part of the body that receives electrical stimulation. The uniqueness of this design solution is that it combines electrical stimulation and heat therapy to bring users a more comprehensive comfort experience and therapeutic effect. By adding heating material around the conductive sheet, users can feel the warm heat therapy effect while receiving electrical stimulation, thereby relieving muscle fatigue and enhancing the therapeutic effect.

[0003] However, although this implementation solution brings a certain degree of comfort and therapeutic effect to users, it also has some limitations. One of the main limitations is that the parts receiving electrical stimulation and the parts receiving thermal therapy cannot completely overlap. This means that during use, users may not be able to maximize the effects of electrical and thermal therapy because there is a certain lack of overlap in the range of action of the two therapies. In view of the problem that the parts receiving electrical stimulation and the parts receiving thermal therapy cannot completely overlap in existing EMS electrical stimulation massage and heating clothing products, it is necessary to propose a new EMS electrical stimulation massage and heating clothing product.

[0023] The following describes the specific implementation of the embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the embodiment of the present invention.

[0024] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, directional words such as "up, down, left, right" generally refer to the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or position relationship in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use.

[0025] The terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used for distinction and description and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0026] Terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "overhanging" do not necessarily mean that a component must be absolutely horizontal, vertical, or overhanging. A slight tilt is permitted.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1This embodiment provides an electrically heated wearable EMS device, which includes: a sandwich structure consisting of a textile layer 10, a heating module layer 20, and a conductive module layer 30; the conductive module layer 30 is arranged on the side close to the human skin, and an insulating layer 40 is arranged between the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30; the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 each have an independent power supply circuit.

[0030] In an embodiment of the present invention, the present invention achieves the dual functions of electrical stimulation and thermal stimulation by arranging a heating layer and a conductive layer at the same position and isolating them through an insulating layer 40. The conductive layer adheres to the human skin to perform electrical stimulation, and at the same time can conduct the temperature of the heating module layer 20 to achieve thermal stimulation of the human skin, thereby achieving two therapeutic effects at the same time in the same part. This design not only improves the comprehensiveness and comprehensiveness of the therapeutic effect, but also saves the user's time and cost, making the muscle stimulation effect more efficient and convenient. Secondly, the power supply lines of the heating module and the conductive module are processed separately and do not affect each other, ensuring that both the high-voltage and low-voltage modules can work well. This design ensures the stability and safety of the device, avoids circuit interference and failure, and ensures the normal operation of the electrical stimulation and heating therapy functions. In a possible embodiment, the textile layer 10, the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 are bonded or sutured.

[0031] Preferably, a thermal insulation layer 50 is provided between the textile layer 10 and the heating module layer 20 .

[0032] In this embodiment of the present invention, in addition to the co-positioned heating and conductive layers, an insulation layer 50, described as thermal insulation cotton, is also provided between the textile layer 10 and the heating module layer 20. This design decision aims to improve the product's heating efficiency and reduce temperature loss, thereby further optimizing the user experience and therapeutic effects.

[0033] Specifically, the selection of the thermal insulation layer 50 is critical because it directly affects the heat locking ability of the heating wire 202 and the heating efficiency of the product. The thermal insulation cotton as the material of the thermal insulation layer 50 has good thermal insulation performance and heat retention capacity, which can effectively reduce heat loss and dissipation. By adding thermal insulation cotton between the textile layer 10 and the heating module layer 20, the influence of the external environment on the heating module can be effectively isolated, the temperature stability of the heating wire 202 can be maintained, and the heating efficiency and stability of the product can be improved. The role of thermal insulation cotton is not only to reduce temperature loss, but also to improve the heating speed and uniformity of the product. Since the thermal insulation cotton has good thermal insulation performance, it can effectively concentrate the heat generated by the heating wire 202 in the treatment area, speed up the heating speed, shorten the treatment time, and improve the heating efficiency of the product. At the same time, the thermal insulation cotton can also achieve uniform distribution of heat, avoid local overheating or overcooling, and ensure the consistency and stability of the treatment effect.

[0034] Furthermore, the addition of thermal insulation can improve user experience and comfort. As a soft, comfortable material, thermal insulation effectively reduces friction and discomfort between the product and the skin, enhancing wearing comfort. This creates a sense of warmth and comfort, enhancing the soothing and pleasurable feeling of treatment, and ultimately increasing user satisfaction and trust in the product.

[0035] Preferably, the heating module layer 20 includes an insulating heat-conducting module 201 and a heating wire 202 embedded in the insulating heat-conducting module 201 .

[0036] Preferably, the heating wire 202 is any one of composite fiber wire, carbon fiber wire, carbon nanotube and graphene.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present utility model, composite fiber filaments, carbon fiber filaments, carbon nanotubes and graphene are one of the preferred materials for the heating filament 202. Composite fiber filaments have good softness and high temperature resistance, can be heated quickly and maintain a stable temperature, and are suitable for scenarios that require rapid heating and long-term temperature maintenance. Carbon fiber filaments have excellent electrical conductivity and high temperature resistance, can achieve efficient heating and uniform heating, and are suitable for application scenarios that have high requirements for heating speed and heating uniformity. Carbon nanotubes and graphene have unique advantages as materials for the heating filament 202. Carbon nanotubes have high thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity, can achieve rapid heating and efficient heat transfer, and are suitable for scenarios that have high requirements for heating speed and energy consumption. Graphene has excellent electrical conductivity and flexibility, can achieve efficient heating and stable heating, and is suitable for application scenarios that have high requirements for heating efficiency and product stability.

[0038] Preferably, the heating wire 202 is fixed in the insulating heat-conducting module 201 by any one of sewing, hot pressing, high frequency and gluing.

[0039] In the embodiments of the present invention, sewing is a traditional fastening method. By sewing the heater wire 202 and the insulating thermally conductive module 201, a relatively secure connection is achieved, ensuring that the heater wire 202 does not loosen or fall off. This fastening method is simple, easy to implement, and low-cost, making it suitable for applications where fastening is not particularly demanding. However, it may affect the product's appearance and flexibility. Hot pressing uses hot pressing technology to bond the heater wire 202 to the insulating thermally conductive module 201, creating a strong connection. Hot pressing improves the stability and durability of the fastening, ensuring a tight bond between the heater wire 202 and the insulating thermally conductive module 201, thereby improving heating efficiency and uniformity. High-frequency fastening is a highly efficient fastening method that uses high-frequency technology to bond the heater wire 202 to the insulating thermally conductive module 201, creating a strong connection. High-frequency fastening offers rapid curing, improving production efficiency and product quality, while ensuring a tight bond between the heater wire 202 and the insulating thermally conductive module 201 and enhancing product stability and safety. Gluing is a simple and easy fixing method, in which the heating wire 202 is bonded to the insulating thermal conductive module 201 using a special glue. Gluing can achieve fast fixing and is suitable for some scenarios where the fixing requirements are not particularly high, but it may be limited by the high temperature resistance and bonding strength of the glue.

[0040] Preferably, the conductive module layer 30 includes a conductive material layer 301 and a conductive silver cloth 302 which are stacked; the conductive material layer 301 is arranged on the side close to the human skin.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present invention, the conductive material layer 301 is arranged close to the human skin to ensure that the conductive properties are directly transmitted to the human skin, thereby improving the conductive efficiency and heating uniformity. At the same time, the arrangement of the conductive material layer 301 close to the skin can reduce energy loss and improve heating efficiency, thereby achieving a faster and more effective heating effect. The conductive silver cloth 302 is arranged between the conductive film group layer and the heating module layer 20 to play a connecting and supporting role. The conductive silver cloth 302 has good conductive properties and softness, and can effectively conduct current and evenly distribute heat. By arranging the conductive silver cloth 302 between the conductive film group layer and the heating module layer 20, the effective transfer of conductive properties and the optimization of the heating effect can be achieved, while maintaining the softness and comfort of the product.

[0042] Preferably, the conductive material layer 301 is made of any one of carbon fiber, conductive glue, conductive PU and metallic silver fiber.

[0043] Preferably, the heating module layer 20 includes a plurality of heating modules arranged at intervals; and the conductive module layer 30 includes a plurality of conductive modules arranged at intervals.

[0044] In the embodiments of the present invention, although each layer structure provided by the present invention is a flexible layer structure, its flexibility is limited and cannot guarantee that it will conform to all parts of the human body when used as clothing material. Based on this, the present invention arranges the heating module and the conductive module in an interval, with a certain gap between each module. This ensures that the overall material has greater flexibility, and the corresponding interval positions can be folded and completely, ensuring that the finished clothing can conform to human skin.

[0045] Preferably, each heating module is provided opposite to a conductive module.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present invention, the technical effect that the present invention intends to achieve is to realize simultaneous heating and electrical stimulation of the same part. Therefore, when the modules are arranged at intervals, it is still necessary to ensure that there are corresponding heating modules and conductive modules facing the same part, that is, the two need to be set facing each other one by one.

[0047] Preferably, the side edges of the electrically heated wearable EMS device are hemmed by hot pressing or sewing; the power supply circuits of the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 are led out from the side edges of the EMS device and integrated into a power control box; the power control box is connected to the power supply circuits of the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 via elastic wires.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, the side edges of the electrically heated wearable EMS device are hemmed using heat pressing or sewing. The power supply circuits for the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 are simultaneously connected and integrated into a power control box. Furthermore, the power control box is connected to the power supply circuits for the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 via elastic conductors. This design combines multiple technical elements to achieve multiple technical effects, with the following features:

[0049] 1) Edge binding improves appearance and durability: Side binding, either through heat pressing or sewing, not only enhances the appearance of the EMS device but also enhances its durability and abrasion resistance. Edge binding effectively prevents edge cracking and loose threads, extending the device's lifespan.

[0050] 2) Integrated Power Supply Circuit Simplifies Structure: The power supply circuits for the heating module layer 20 and the conductive module layer 30 are integrated into a single power control box, simplifying the device's structure and layout. This integrated design not only saves space but also reduces wiring complexity, improving overall system stability and reliability.

[0051] 3) Elastic Wires Increase Flexibility: Elastic wires connect the power control box to the power supply circuit. These wires are flexible and resilient, adapting to the device's bending and stretching without breaking or damaging. This increases flexibility and comfort, making the device more comfortable for the user.

[0052] 4) Improved safety and stability: The integrated power supply circuit and flexible wire connection not only simplify the device structure, but also reduce the risk of poor contact or short circuit, thereby improving the safety and stability of the device. Users can feel more assured and at ease during use.

[0053] 5) Optimizing the User Experience: Taking into account factors such as appearance, durability, flexibility, and safety, this design solution optimizes the user experience, making wearing EMS devices more comfortable, convenient, and practical. Users can better enjoy the convenience and comfort brought by the electrically heated wearable device.

[0054] The above describes in detail the optional implementation methods of the embodiment of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above implementation methods. Within the technical concept of the embodiment of the present invention, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention can be subjected to various simple modifications, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0055] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the embodiments of the present utility model will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0056] Those skilled in the art will understand that all or part of the steps in the above-mentioned embodiments can be implemented by instructing the relevant hardware through a program, which is stored in a storage medium and includes a number of instructions for causing a single-chip microcomputer, chip or processor to execute all or part of the steps of the methods described in each embodiment of the present application.
