Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wearable medical products, and more particularly to a meridian stimulation device. Background Art

[0002] With the current economic boom, people are increasingly focusing on health preservation. Rather than waiting until illness strikes, it's better to maintain good health on a regular basis. Massage is now a popular trend, and treatments like hot compresses and ultraviolet light therapy are also becoming increasingly popular. These methods offer excellent ways to maintain health, relieving fatigue and enhancing physical function.

[0003] However, massage typically only exerts force on the surface, limiting the penetration of internal body energy. Because the human body is a conductor, electricity can flow through it and transfer energy from one part of the body to another through the meridians. Therefore, some electrical stimulation devices on the market simply couple the control circuitry within a sheet-like hydrogel patch, which is then applied to the desired area for treatment. However, these devices are complex to operate, have limited functionality, and offer limited stimulation effects.

[0004] In addition, there are many brands of portable ECG monitors on the market. Although these products focus on data collection and analysis, such as heart rate monitoring, to help users understand their physical condition, they lack direct physiological feedback and therapeutic mechanisms.

Those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations and deductions based on actual application situations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should not be limited by the content of this specific embodiment.

[0023] The accompanying drawings are schematic diagrams of embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the drawings are merely examples and are not drawn to scale, and should not be used to limit the actual scope of protection claimed in the present invention.

The data monitoring module and the electrical stimulation module are connected for transmission. The data monitoring module 100 and the electrical stimulation module 200 interact with each other in real time. The data that can be interacted with include electrical stimulation plans.

[0025] The data monitoring module 100 includes a body data monitoring unit and a first communication unit, wherein the body data monitoring unit is connected to the first communication unit. The body data monitoring unit is used to monitor the user's body data and obtain an electrical stimulation plan based on the real-time body data. The body data includes human health data such as heart rate data and blood pressure data.

[0026] The body data monitoring unit may include a photoelectric device, which includes a light emitter, a light receiver, and a lens. The light emitter is used to emit a specified light beam, the light receiver is used to receive the specified light beam reflected by the skin, and the lens is used to guide the emitted specified light beam into the wearer's skin or guide the specified light beam reflected by the skin to the light receiver. The body data monitoring unit controls the light emitter to emit the specified light beam and converts the light signal of the specified light beam received by the light receiver into data of specific indicators in the body data, such as heart pulse data, blood pressure data, blood sugar data, and other body data related to human health. The number of the light emitters is n, where n is an integer greater than or equal to 2. The number of the light receivers matches the number of the lenses and the number of the light emitters.

[0027] The first communication unit realizes data transmission with the electrical stimulation module 200. The first communication unit is preferably a Bluetooth transmission device.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the electrical stimulation module 200 includes a stimulation center module and a stimulation channel, wherein the stimulation center module is connected to the stimulation channel. The stimulation center module controls the stimulation voltage output by the stimulation channel according to the electrical stimulation scheme. The stimulation channel is a circuit for transmitting sensing information and control information, and can specifically be a signal line.

[0029] The stimulation channel is connected to the stimulation contacts, which include a positive contact 204 and a negative contact 205. The stimulation channel is connected to the positive contact 204 and the negative contact 205, respectively. When the positive contact 204 and the negative contact 205 are in contact with the user's skin, the stimulation center module inputs a stimulation voltage to the stimulation channel, thereby forming a stimulation path for electrical stimulation. The stimulation contacts can be provided with multiple protrusions to ensure contact with the user's skin.

[0030] The stimulation channels include three or more, and the stimulation center module is connected to each stimulation channel respectively. Each stimulation channel is connected to the positive contact and the negative contact respectively.

[0031] Here, three stimulation channels are used as an example: the stimulation center module is connected to the three stimulation channels, namely, the first stimulation channel, the second stimulation channel, and the third stimulation channel. The stimulation center module is connected to the three stimulation channels, namely, the first stimulation channel, the second stimulation channel, and the third stimulation channel. The stimulation center module controls the stimulation voltage output by the first stimulation channel, the second stimulation channel, and the third stimulation channel according to the electrical stimulation scheme.

[0032] Each stimulation channel is connected to the positive contact 204 and the negative contact 205, respectively. Specifically, the first stimulation channel is connected to the first stimulation contact, which includes a first positive contact and a first negative contact, and the first stimulation channel is connected to the first positive contact and the first negative contact, respectively. The second stimulation channel is connected to the second stimulation contact, which includes a second positive contact and a second negative contact, and the second stimulation channel is connected to the second positive contact and the second negative contact, respectively.

[0033] The electrical stimulation module 200 also includes a power storage unit 203 and a processor. The power storage unit 203 is connected to the processor, and the processor is connected to the stimulation center module. The power storage unit 203 is the power source of the electrical stimulation module 200. The processor sends electrical stimulation commands to the electrical stimulation module 200 based on the electrical stimulation plan of the data monitoring module 100. The electrical stimulation commands include the stimulation voltage, stimulation frequency, and single stimulation time for each stimulation channel. The power storage unit 203 can be a lithium battery, which is not specifically limited here.

[0034] A power monitoring device is connected between the power storage unit 203 and the processor, and the power monitoring device monitors in real time the remaining power of the power storage unit 203. The power monitoring device is connected to the stimulation center module to provide power to the stimulation center module.

[0035] The processor is connected to a control button 206 , and the control button 206 controls the working state of the electrical stimulation module 200 , that is, controls the on / off state of the electrical stimulation module 200 .

[0036] The processor includes a second communication unit, which realizes data transmission with the data monitoring module 100. The second communication unit is preferably a Bluetooth transmission device.

[0037] The following is an explanation based on a preferred embodiment of a meridian stimulation device.

[0038] A meridian stimulation device may also include a connecting device 300, which forms a ring-shaped whole with the data monitoring module and the electrical stimulation module, and the data monitoring module and the electrical stimulation module are arranged at positions opposite to the connecting device. Specifically, the mutually symmetrical sides of the data monitoring module 100 are respectively provided with a first fixing device, and the connecting device 300 includes a second fixing device that matches the first fixing device. The connecting device 300 forms a wearable ring-shaped whole with the data monitoring module 100 and the connecting device 300 through the first fixing device and the second fixing device. In this case, the electrical meridian stimulation terminal can be worn on the wrist.

[0039] The electrical stimulation module 200 is positioned symmetrically with respect to the center of the annular whole between the connecting device 300 and the data monitoring module 100. That is, the electrical stimulation module 200 and the data monitoring module 100 are positioned symmetrically. When the electrical meridian stimulation terminal is worn on the wrist, the data monitoring module 100 is located on the outside of the wrist, and the electrical stimulation module 200 is located on the inside of the wrist.

[0040] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the electrical stimulation module 200 includes a stimulation housing 201. The side of the stimulation housing 201 opposite the data monitoring module 100 is called the wrist contact surface, and the stimulation contacts are arranged on the wrist contact surface of the stimulation housing 201. When the watch is worn on the wrist, the wrist contact surface contacts the wearer's wrist, that is, the stimulation contacts contact the wearer's wrist. The power storage unit 203, the power monitoring device, the processor, the stimulation center module, and the stimulation channel are respectively fixed in the stimulation housing 201.

[0041] The wrist contact surface includes a first acupoint zone 211, a second acupoint zone 212, a third acupoint zone 213, and a fourth acupoint zone 214. The first acupoint zone and the third acupoint zone 213 are located at opposite ends of the wrist contact surface in the direction in which the connection device 300 extends. The second acupoint zone 212 and the fourth acupoint zone 214 are positioned between the first acupoint zone 211 and the third acupoint zone 213. Positive contacts are distributed across the first acupoint zone 211, the second acupoint zone 212, and the third acupoint zone 213. The positive contacts on the first acupoint zone 211, the second acupoint zone 212, and the third acupoint zone 213 are distributed throughout the first acupoint zone 211, the second acupoint zone 212, and the third acupoint zone 213. The positive contact of the first acupoint partition 211 is a first positive contact, the positive contact of the second acupoint partition 212 is a second positive contact, and the positive contact of the third acupoint partition 213 is a third positive contact.

[0042] The width of the first and third acupoint zones 211 and 213 in the direction of the connecting device 300 is measured; their lengths perpendicular to the direction of the connecting device 300 are measured. The widths of the first and third acupoint zones 211 and 213 are 3 mm to 7 mm, and their lengths are 15 mm to 20 mm. The optimal dimensions of the first and third acupoint zones 211 and 213 are 6.6 mm in width and 18.6 mm in length. The minimum distance between the first and third acupoint zones 213 is 30 mm to 40 mm, with an optimal value of 36 mm.

[0043] The length of the second acupoint zone 212 in the direction of the connecting device 300 is 10 mm to 20 mm, preferably 12.6 mm. The width of the second acupoint zone 212 in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the connecting device 300 is 4 mm to 7 mm, preferably 6.6 mm. The minimum distance between the second acupoint zone 212 and the first acupoint zone 211 is 6 mm to 7 mm, preferably 6.2 mm. The minimum distance between the second acupoint zone 212 and the third acupoint zone 213 is 6.5 mm to 7.5 mm, preferably 6.8 mm.

[0044] The shapes of the second acupoint partition 212 and the first acupoint partition 211 and the third acupoint partition 213 can be the same. It should be noted that the second acupoint partition 212 is placed between the first acupoint partition 211 and the third acupoint partition 213, and the extension lines of the two ends of the second acupoint partition 212 are respectively perpendicular to the extension lines of the first acupoint partition 211 and / or the third acupoint partition 213.

[0045] The negative contacts of the three stimulation channels are respectively arranged in the fourth partition 214, including a first negative contact, a second negative contact and a third negative contact, and the negative contacts of the three stimulation channels are adjacent and do not touch each other, that is, the first negative contact, the second negative contact, and the third negative contact are adjacent and do not touch each other. Specifically, the fourth partition 214 may be circular, the first negative contact, the second negative contact, and the third negative contact are respectively fan-shaped, and the first negative contact, the second negative contact, and the third negative contact are arranged in sequence in the fourth partition 214, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, while ensuring the distance between the first, second, and third negative contacts, the contact area between the negative contacts and the skin is ensured. The first, second, and third negative contacts have the same shape and size. The maximum width of the first, second, and third negative contacts is 4 mm to 7 mm, preferably 6.2 mm, and the maximum length is 9 mm to 12 mm, preferably 10.5 mm.

[0046] The minimum distance between the negative contact of the fourth partition 214 and the first acupoint partition 211 is 5mm-6mm, and the optimal distance is 5.42mm. The minimum distance between the negative contact of the fourth partition 214 and the second acupoint partition 212 is 3mm-4mm, and the optimal distance is 3.5mm. The minimum distance between the negative contact of the fourth partition 214 and the third acupoint partition 213 is 4.5mm-5.5mm, and the optimal distance is 4.9mm. The distance between the negative contacts of the fourth partition 214 is greater than or equal to 1mm, and the optimal distance is 2mm.

[0047] When the watch is worn on the wrist, the wrist contact surface contacts the wearer's wrist. At this point, the first acupoint zone 211 contacts the wearer's Jingqu acupoint, the second acupoint zone 212 contacts the wearer's Neiguan acupoint, and the third acupoint zone 213 contacts the wearer's Lingdao, Tongli, and Yinxi acupoints. The fourth acupoint zone 214 contacts the acupoint-free area between the wearer's Jingqu, Neiguan, and Lingdao, Tongli, and Yinxi acupoints. When the watch is worn on the wrist, once any one of the first acupoint zone 211, the second acupoint zone 212, and the third acupoint zone 213 matches the position of the corresponding acupoint, the remaining acupoint zones can then be matched to the positions of the corresponding acupoints.

[0048] The stimulation contacts on the first acupoint partition 211 , the second acupoint partition 212 , and the third acupoint partition 213 , as well as the first cathode contact, the second cathode contact, and the third cathode contact are made of conductive rubber.

[0049] The electrical stimulation module 200 may be provided with third fixing devices 202 at both ends of the connecting device 300 in the direction of extension. The connecting device 300 removably fixes the stimulation housing 201 to the connecting device 300 via the third fixing devices. The electrical stimulation module 200 may also be fixed to the side of the connecting device 300 facing the wearer's wrist, without specific limitation herein. The control button 206 may be provided on the side of the stimulation housing 201 not provided with the third fixing devices 202.

[0050] The stimulation housing 201 is further provided with a charging contact 207 , which is connected to the power storage unit 203 . The charging contact 207 may be provided on one side of the third acupoint partition 213 , specifically on the side adjacent to the first acupoint partition 211 .

[0051] A meridian stimulation device ensures the stimulation effect of the electrical stimulation module by combining the electrical stimulation module with the data monitoring module; multiple groups of stimulation contacts, especially three groups of stimulation contacts, are set up, corresponding to different acupoints, further ensuring the electrical stimulation effect, while reducing the user's discomfort through the coordinated cooperation of multiple groups of stimulation contacts; and the specific position of the stimulation contacts is precisely designed to ensure the accurate positioning of the stimulation contacts and acupoints.

[0052] The above content is an explanation of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, which can help those skilled in the art to more fully understand the technical solutions of the present invention. However, these embodiments are merely illustrative, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation methods of the present invention are limited to the description of these embodiments. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several simple deductions and transformations can be made, which should be deemed to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
