[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. It will be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, the drawings only show parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] In this utility model, the terms "first," "second," and the like are used to distinguish between different objects, not to describe a specific order. Furthermore, the terms "including," "having," and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus comprising a series of steps or elements is not limited to the listed steps or elements but may optionally include steps or elements not listed, or may optionally include other steps or elements inherent to the process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0025] References to "embodiments" herein mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0026] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the present invention's therapeutic belt 1. The belt body 10 comprises a back skin layer 11 and a skin-near layer 12; a therapeutic component 20 at least partially disposed between the back skin layer 11 and the skin-near layer 12, comprising at least one of a heating component 21 and a massage component 22. The back skin layer 11, the skin-near layer 12, and the therapeutic component 20 are secured by adhesive.

[0027] In this embodiment, the back skin layer 11, the skin-near layer 12, and the therapy component 20 are bonded together, eliminating the need for any stitching on the therapy tape 1. This significantly increases user comfort while ensuring a smooth, seamless surface, enhancing the tape's aesthetics. To ensure a more secure and reliable bond and minimize the thickness of the tape body 10, hot pressing is employed. This not only ensures a more secure and reliable bond, but also reduces curing time, shortening production cycles and ultimately reducing production costs.

[0028] It should be noted that the physiotherapy component 20 is at least partially arranged between the back skin layer 11 and the near-skin layer 12. On the one hand, the wires of the physiotherapy component 20 are not exposed, and the overall aesthetics of the physiotherapy belt 1 can be maintained. On the other hand, as a product that needs to be powered, the physiotherapy component 20 can prevent the safety risks caused by direct contact with the skin and provide a comfortable physiotherapy effect when used.

[0029] Furthermore, the back skin layer 11 and the near-skin layer 12 are identical in shape and are superimposed and bonded together to increase the thickness of the belt body 10, giving the physical therapy belt 1 an overall appearance of an integrated molding, a more aesthetically pleasing appearance, and a better visual effect. Furthermore, during bonding, to better secure the physical therapy component 20 and prevent it from moving within the belt body 10, the back skin layer 11 and the near-skin layer 12 are fully bonded together. This effectively secures the physical therapy component 20 and prevents it from stretching excessively with the belt body 10, potentially damaging it.

[0030] The back skin layer 11 and the skin-near layer 12 can be made of the same or different fabrics. In principle, a more skin-friendly fabric is used as the skin-near layer 12, which can enhance the user's comfort during use. In addition, in terms of fabric selection, both the back skin layer 11 and the skin-near layer 12 are elastic.

[0031] See the attached drawings in the specification Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown.

[0032] In one embodiment, when the physical therapy component 20 includes a massage component 22 and a heating component 21, the massage component 22 includes electrodes 221 and a massage control component (not shown), and the heating component 21 includes a heating element 211 and a heating control component (not shown). The electrodes 221 and the heating element 211 are integrated through circuit integration to form a physical therapy sheet 23. This can reduce circuitry, ease assembly difficulty, increase user comfort, and improve the safety and stability of the physical therapy sheet.

[0033] In this embodiment, the electrode 221 and the heating element 211 are integrated on a therapeutic sheet 23, which is also an integrated flexible circuit board. The flexible printed circuit board (FPC) is a highly reliable and highly flexible printed circuit made of polyimide or polyester film as a substrate. Integrating the electrode 221 and the heating element 211 and related connecting wires into a flexible circuit board can, on the one hand, reduce the complexity of the circuit. On the other hand, since the original wires and components are integrated on a circuit board, it is more convenient and quick to assemble the therapeutic belt 1, and it is not easy to cause damage to the circuit board, which can extend the service life of the circuit board.

[0034] Furthermore, the electrode 221 is connected to the massage control element via a wire or a contact; the heating element 211 is connected to the heating control element via a wire or a contact;

[0035] In this embodiment, the massage control component and the heating control component are respectively controlled by the electrode 221 and the heating component 211, and the massage control component and the heating control component are respectively arranged with the electrode 221 and the heating component 211. The two are directly connected by a wire or connected by a contact. The utility model adopts a magnetic contact method for connection, which is convenient for charging. You only need to remove the end with the power supply to charge, without removing the entire product for charging.

[0036] Furthermore, the physiotherapy belt 1 also includes a power supply (not shown in the figure), and the power supply, the massage control component and the heating control component are all connected to the contacts of the physiotherapy component.

[0037] In this embodiment, the therapeutic belt 1 can be powered by either a direct plug-in power source or a mobile power source. Alternatively, the power supply and control components can be integrated into a controller, which provides greater convenience and allows the belt 1 to be used at any time, whether walking, sitting, or lying down, without being restricted by power supply. This embodiment illustrates the integration of the power supply and control components into a controller, but this power supply method is merely an example and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Specifically, the power supply, massage control element, and heating control element are all connected to the contacts of the therapeutic assembly.

[0038] In another implementation scenario, between the back skin layer 11 and the near-skin layer 12, at least one first compression layer 13 is provided on the side close to the back skin layer 11, and the first compression layer 13 is used to compress a concave and convex shape; the bonding is hot pressing bonding, and the concave and convex shape is convenient for visual beauty and forming a fixed shape to better fit the shape of the human abdomen, and the concave and convex shape is achieved by compression, which can further reduce the use of redundant materials such as sewing thread or embroidery thread, thereby improving the comfort of users.

[0039] Preferably, at least one second compressed layer 14 is provided between the back skin layer 11 and the near-skin layer 12, on the side closer to the near-skin layer 12. The density of the second compressed layer 14 is lower than that of the first compressed layer 13. When different objectives are to be achieved, the use of compressed layers of different densities can be used to achieve the desired purpose, ultimately resulting in a better effect. The first and second compressed layers 13, 14 can be made of sponge material. Sponge material can be easily formed into a specific pattern through high-temperature hot pressing to meet users' specific requirements for aesthetic appearance and structural performance.

[0040] Preferably, the physiotherapy component 20 is at least partially arranged between the first compression layer 13 and the second compression layer 14. Since the first compression layer 13 and the second compression layer 14 need to be formed into a concave and convex shape by hot pressing and bonding, and attention needs to be paid to the visual appearance, the physiotherapy component 20 is arranged between the first compression layer 13 and the second compression layer 14 to better ensure the beauty of the physiotherapy belt 1.

[0041] In another implementation scenario, a fixing layer 15 is further provided between the first compression layer 13 and the second compression layer 14 to reduce the elasticity of the physiotherapy belt 1 in the belt body 10 to prevent damage to the physiotherapy component 20 due to excessive elasticity. Since the elasticity of the physiotherapy component 20 is less than the elasticity of the back skin layer 11, the first compression layer 13, the second compression layer 14 and the skin-near layer 12, in order to prevent the physiotherapy component 20 from being torn when stretched together with the back skin layer 11, the first compression layer 13, the second compression layer 14 and the skin-near layer 12, thereby reducing the service life of the physiotherapy belt 1, a fixing layer 15 is provided between the first compression layer 13 and the second compression layer 14 while ensuring the elasticity of the outer side of the belt body 10. The elasticity of the fixing layer 15 is less than the elasticity of the back skin layer 11, the first compression layer 13, the second compression layer 14 and the skin-near layer 12. A non-woven fabric with less elasticity can be used as the fixing layer 15, or other alternative materials with a certain elasticity but less elasticity than the elasticity of the back skin layer 11, the first compression layer 13, the second compression layer 14 and the skin-near layer 12, but which can be stretched in a small range together with the back skin layer 11, the first compression layer 13, the second compression layer 14 and the skin-near layer 12 can be used.

[0042] In other implementation scenarios, the physiotherapy sheet 23 includes at least one heating area 231. When the number of the heating areas 231 is greater than or equal to 2, the heating areas 231 are connected in series and / or in parallel; the heating control component controls at least one heating area 231 to heat up each time, that is, multiple heating areas 231 can heat up individually, or several of them can be heated, or all of them can heat up together, which has high operational flexibility.

[0043] In this embodiment, the heating element 211 is located in the heating area 231. When the therapy belt 1 is worn on the human abdomen, the heating area 231 corresponds to the position of the uterus acupoint, and the heating area 231 is symmetrical with respect to the midline of the abdomen. In this embodiment, there are six heating elements 211, with three on each side of the abdomen, with the midline passing through the navel as the dividing line. The heating control unit can control the heating of all six heating elements 211. In this case, the six heating elements 211 can also be arranged into a single heating area, which can reduce the number of wire connections and simplify the circuit. It is also possible to control the heating of any one heating element 211 individually, or to control any two, three, four, or five of them to heat together. The specific setting is based on actual needs and is not limited here. The heating control unit controls the heating of different numbers of heating elements 211, allowing users to perform targeted hot compress therapy on a part of the abdomen or the entire abdomen according to different needs. While ensuring the basic hot compress effect and a fixed power consumption, the single use time of the portable therapy belt 1 can be extended.

[0044] Preferably, a temperature detection element 232 is further provided in the heating area 231 for detecting the instantaneous heating temperature of the heating element 211 , so as to better control the temperature and reduce the risk of burns.

[0045] In this embodiment, the temperature detection element 232 can be a temperature sensor, which is used to detect the temperature of the heating element 211 during operation. When there are multiple heating elements 211 and all the heating elements 211 are connected in series, or there is only one heating element 211, the temperature detection element 232 only needs to be set on any heating element 211. If multiple heating elements 211 are connected in parallel, a temperature detection element 232 can be set on each heating element 211, or a temperature detection element 232 can be set between adjacent heating elements 211, so as to more accurately measure the real-time temperature of all heating elements 211, better control the heating of the heating element 211, and prevent the temperature from being too high, causing skin burns, and causing safety problems.

[0046] In another implementation scenario, at least one pair of electrodes 221 is provided on the physiotherapy sheet 23, and each pair of electrodes 221 corresponds to at least one massage stimulation layer 222; the control component controls the transmission of electric pulse stimulation to the massage stimulation layer 222; the electric pulse stimulation is transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation.

[0047] In this implementation scenario, the number of heating elements 211 can correspond to the number of electrodes 221, or the number of heating elements 211 can be greater than the number of electrodes 221. For example, in this real-time scenario, the number of heating elements 211 is 6, and the electrodes 221 can be 1 pair, 2 pairs, or 3 pairs. When the number of electrodes 221 is 1 pair or 2 pairs, the massage stimulation layer 222 of the electrodes 221 is located above the heating elements 211, and the massage stimulation layer 222 can transmit the electrical pulse signal on the electrodes 221 to the human skin. Specifically, the physiotherapy sheet 23 is two layers of PI film (thin film insulating material) with wires and electronic components sandwiched between the two layers of PI film. The electronic components include the heating elements 211 and the electrodes 221. The massage stimulation layer 222 is a contact window opened on the PI film, so that the electrical stimulation on the electrodes 221 is transmitted to the human skin or transferred to an area of ​​the human skin via other conductive materials.

[0048] In addition, the electric pulse stimulation is transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. That is, the massage component 22 massages and stimulates the human body through TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation). The massage component 22 cleverly uses TENS technology to send mild current pulses to specific acupuncture points or muscle groups of the human body in a non-invasive manner. These precisely controlled current pulses can penetrate deep into the skin, stimulate and activate deep nerve endings, thereby effectively relieving muscle tension, stiffness and pain. Users can adjust the current intensity and frequency according to personal needs and enjoy a variety of massage experiences from gentle relief to strong relaxation. This technology is not only safe and painless, but also promotes blood circulation and accelerates the recovery process. It is a popular high-end massage solution in modern homes and physical therapy centers.

[0049] Preferably, a window 121 is provided on the skin-near layer 12 ; a contact layer 223 is provided at the window 121 , the contact layer 223 is connected to the electrode 221 , and the contact layer 223 is conductive.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to allow the contact layer 223 to better contact the skin and generate electric current stimulation to the skin, a window 121 is provided on the near-skin layer 12, and the contact layer 223 partially covers the window 121, and the edge portion is hidden between the near-skin layer 12 and the back-skin layer 11, that is, the contact layer 223 is partially provided between the near-skin layer 12 and the back-skin layer 11, and partially provided on the side of the near-skin layer 12 away from the back-skin layer 11. The contact layer 223 is in direct contact with the skin to conduct the electric pulse stimulation transmitted by the electrode 221. The contact layer 223 can be a film made of PU film (PU film is a polyurethane film, which is a non-toxic, harmless, waterproof and environmentally friendly material that does not cause any harm to human skin), or other environmentally friendly materials that are conductive, waterproof and do not cause any harm to human skin.

[0051] Preferably, a conductive layer 224 is further provided at a position corresponding to the window 121 , and the conductive layer 224 is in contact with the electrode 221 . The conductive layer 224 is used to transfer the current on the electrode 221 to the contact layer 223 , and then to the human skin by the contact layer 223 .

[0052] Specifically, the conductive layer 224 can be a conductive cloth, which can electrically connect the electrode 221 with the contact layer 223, that is, the massage stimulation layer 222 is connected to the conductive layer 224, and then the conductive layer 224 transmits the electrical pulse stimulation to the contact layer 223, so as to more stably realize the massage stimulation of the massage component 22 on the human skin.

[0053] Preferably, each heating area corresponds to the conductive layer 224 and the contact layer 223 ; a support layer 225 is provided between the conductive layer 224 and the contact layer 223 .

[0054] Specifically, to better ensure contact between the contact layer 223 and the skin and prevent it from detaching from the skin due to walking or other excessive movements, which could cause the massage assembly 22 to cease functioning, a support layer 225 is provided between the conductive layer 224 and the contact layer 223. The support layer 225 is arranged to protrude relative to the skin-near layer 12, with the protrusion located on the side of the skin-near layer 12 away from the back skin layer 11. The support layer 225 can be a layer of a certain thickness made of a soft material such as sponge. The thickness can be uniform or uneven, thick in the middle and thin at the edges, depending on the aesthetics and user comfort.

[0055] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the utility model, several variations and improvements can be made, which all fall within the scope of protection of the utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
