[0002] In recent years, with the increasing health awareness and technological advancements, home healthcare products have gradually gained popularity, among which physiotherapy devices have become a hot product in the market due to their portability and effectiveness. Physiotherapy devices mainly act on the human body through physical factors (such as electricity, light, sound, and magnetism) to achieve effects such as relieving pain, promoting blood circulation, and enhancing muscle strength.

[0003] Currently, there are many types of physiotherapy devices on the market, including but not limited to ultrasonic therapy devices, electromagnetic wave therapy devices, and infrared therapy devices. However, many existing physiotherapy devices have a relatively fixed structure, especially the foot pedals used for foot therapy. These pedals are usually fixed to the bottom of the device. This fixed structure requires users to sit upright in front of the device to place their feet on the pedals for treatment. However, prolonged sitting can cause fatigue and discomfort, especially for the elderly and those with mobility issues. Because they cannot move or lie down, these users cannot enjoy the treatment and may even suffer unnecessary harm with long-term use, thus reducing the therapeutic effect and the user's recovery speed.

The x-axis arrow direction is referred to as the "right" direction in the following text, and the y-axis arrow direction as the "back" direction in the following text; however, in the actual application of this application, these are not limiting.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a physiotherapy device 100, which includes: a support device 110 and a physiotherapy pedal 113, a control console 114 and an electrical connection cable connecting the control console 114. The support device 110 is used to support the entire physiotherapy device 100; the physiotherapy pedal 113 is mounted on the bottom of the support device 110 and can be detached from the support device 110; the control console 114 is mounted on the support device 110; and the electrical connection cable is used to electrically connect the physiotherapy pedal 113 and the control console 114. The control console 114 can control the operation of the physiotherapy pedal 113 via the electrical connection cable whether the physiotherapy pedal 113 is mounted on or detached from the support device 110.

[0036] Preferably, in this embodiment, the physiotherapy pedal 113 is designed to be detachable from the support device 110, and is electrically connected to the control console 114 via an electrical connection cable. This allows the control console 114 to control the physiotherapy pedal 113, enabling it to operate whether it is mounted on or removed from the support device 110. Thus, when a user wants to use the physiotherapy pedal 113 for foot therapy, whether sitting in front of the physiotherapy device 100, lying down, or in another posture, the physiotherapy pedal 113 can meet the user's needs. This allows the user to choose a more suitable posture during therapy, eliminating fatigue and exhaustion from prolonged therapy. For the elderly and those with mobility issues, this allows them to enjoy foot therapy in a more comfortable state, thereby improving the therapeutic effect and the user's recovery speed.

[0037] Preferably, the electrical connection includes a first electrical connection 121 and a second electrical connection 122. The first electrical connection 121 is installed inside the support device 110 and electrically connected to the control console 114. The second electrical connection 122 is installed outside the support device 110 and electrically connected to the control console 114. The control console 114 is electrically connected to the physiotherapy pedal 113 via either the first electrical connection 121 or the second electrical connection 122. It is understood that the purpose of designing two electrical connection wires, the first electrical connection 121 and the second electrical connection 122, is that the first electrical connection 121 is installed inside the support device 110, thus serving as a concealed connection to the control console 114. 4. The first electrical connection wire 121 is electrically connected to the physiotherapy pedal 113, while the second electrical connection wire 122 is plugged into the outside of the support device 110, thus allowing for easy removal and greater flexibility. In some embodiments, only the first electrical connection wire 121 can be installed, and the first electrical connection wire 121 can be designed to extend and retract outward within the support device 110. This ensures that when the physiotherapy pedal 113 is removed, the first electrical connection wire 121 and the physiotherapy pedal 113 are not disconnected, so that the physiotherapy pedal 113 remains electrically connected to the control console 114 when it is removed from the support device 110, thereby controlling the operation of the physiotherapy pedal 113. In another embodiment, it is also possible to... By installing only the second electrical connection wire 122, the physiotherapy pedal 113 can be electrically connected to the control console 114 whether it is removed or assembled onto the support device 110, thereby controlling the operation of the physiotherapy pedal 113. In a third embodiment, both the first electrical connection wire 121 and the second electrical connection wire 122 can be designed to exist simultaneously. In this design, one of the first electrical connection wire 121 and the second electrical connection wire 122 can be used to achieve electrical connection to the physiotherapy pedal 113 to maintain power supply between the physiotherapy pedal 113 and the control console 114. In this case, no additional electrical connection wire is required. The first electrical connection line 121 is designed to extend outward or retract within the support device 110, or the length of the first electrical connection line 121 extending outward or retracting within the support device 110 is designed to be less than 3cm, so that when the first electrical connection line 121 is electrically connected to the physiotherapy pedal 113, the extension and retraction function of the first electrical connection line 121 can buffer the movement of the physiotherapy pedal 113; optionally, in the above three embodiments, the user can customize according to their own needs, and the electrical connection line may include only one or both of the first electrical connection line 121 and the second electrical connection line 122, which is not limited here.

[0038] In the above scheme, preferably, the support device 110 is provided with a through hole 11b communicating with the interior of the support device 110. The first electrical connection line 121 is electrically connected to the physiotherapy pedal 113 through the through hole 11b. It can be understood that the purpose of designing the through hole 11b is to limit the portion of the first electrical connection line 121 extending to the outside of the support device 110, so as to prevent the first electrical connection line 121 from moving arbitrarily. Furthermore, the first electrical connection line 121 can extend outward from the through hole 11b. Preferably, the length of the first electrical connection line 121 extending outward is between 0.2 and 2 meters. In this embodiment, when only the first electrical connection line 121 is designed, the length of the first electrical connection line 121 extending outward is 2 meters. When the first electrical connection line 121 and the second electrical connection line 122 exist at the same time, the length of the first electrical connection line 121 extending outward is 0.03 meters.

[0039] Preferably, it also includes a plug-in plate 116, which is installed on the outside of the support device 110 and electrically connected to the control console 114. One end of the second electrical connection line 122 is plugged into one of the plug-in interfaces of the plug-in plate 116, and the other end is pluggable and detachable to the physiotherapy pedal 113. It is understood that the plug-in plate 116 is designed with multiple plug-in interfaces. One plug-in interface is used for one end of the second electrical connection line 122. The other end of the second electrical connection line 122 is electrically connected to the physiotherapy pedal 113 to realize the control of the physiotherapy pedal 113. The other plug-in interfaces on the plug-in plate 116 can be plugged into physiotherapy devices for physiotherapy of other parts of the user's body. Optionally, one plug-in interface can be plugged into a waist and abdomen massage belt, one plug-in interface can be plugged into a pelvic management device, one plug-in interface can be plugged into a back physiotherapy device 100, one plug-in interface can be plugged into a neck physiotherapy device 100, and other physiotherapy devices 100 can also be plugged into, which are not limited here.

[0040] Preferably, the length of the second electrical connection wire 122 is greater than or equal to the length of the first electrical connection wire 121 extending outward from the through hole 11b. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the length of the second electrical connection wire 122 is designed to be equal to the length of the first electrical connection wire 121 extending outward from the through hole 11b, both of which are designed to be 2 meters long, so as to improve the flexibility of the physiotherapy pedal 113 after it is removed from the support device 110.

[0041] Preferably, the physiotherapy pedal 113 includes a metal upper shell 131, a graphene heat-conducting sheet 132, and a mounting shell 133. The graphene heat-conducting sheet 132 is installed on the side of the metal upper shell 131 facing the mounting shell 133. It is understood that traditional heat-conducting sheets are usually designed as silicone heat-conducting sheets, which have slow heat conduction speed and are prone to wear after long-term use. The design of the graphene heat-conducting sheet 132 utilizes the excellent thermal conductivity of graphene material, a novel polymer material whose greatest advantage is its fast heat conduction speed. When used as a heat source, graphene can gently transfer heat to the metal upper shell 131 through powerful energy conversion. This non-metallic property makes the temperature generated by graphene gentle and without a burning sensation, providing users with a comfortable thermotherapy experience. Furthermore, graphene's uniform heating and flexible conductor mean that even if the foot moves during use, the heating effect will not be affected, ensuring comfort. Additionally, the metal upper shell 131 is designed to directly adhere to the user's sole for heating. The mounting shell 133 has a recessed groove 13a, within which the metal upper shell 131 is installed, allowing the mounting shell 133 to assemble the graphene heat-conducting sheet 132 and the metal upper shell 131 to form a complete therapeutic pedal 113. Furthermore, the recessed groove 13a has a recessed hole 13b, and the therapeutic pedal 113 also includes an infrared lamp 134 installed at the recessed hole 13b. Optionally, in this embodiment, it is designed as an infrared irradiation lamp. By irradiating the user's sole with infrared light, the thermal effect generates infrared radiation, which, after being absorbed by the subcutaneous tissue of the foot, can dilate blood vessels, accelerate blood flow, and effectively improve microcirculation. This thermal effect can also promote local metabolism, enhance local metabolism, aid in inflammation absorption, and relieve pain and swelling. Furthermore, the loading housing 133 is provided with two mounting slots 13a, and each mounting slot 13a is provided with at least two infrared lamps 134. In this embodiment, each mounting slot 13a has two infrared lamps 134 for illumination at the bottom, resulting in a more uniform illumination effect.

[0042] Preferably, the support device 110 includes a support platform 111 and a support base 112. The support base 112 is installed at the bottom of the support platform 111, the control console 114 is installed at the top of the support platform 111, and the plug-in plate 116 is installed on the support platform 111 and located below the control console 114. The support base 112 is provided with an assembly groove 11a, and the physiotherapy pedal 113 is installed in the assembly groove 11a. It can be understood that the support platform 111 and the support base 112 are designed as an assembly structure. The bottom of the support platform 111 is designed with a connecting frame, and the two are assembled by inserting the connecting frame into the support base 112.

[0043] Preferably, the bottom of the assembly groove 11a is provided with limiting ribs 141, and multiple limiting ribs 141 are provided; wherein, at least two limiting ribs 141 are arranged intersectingly, at least two limiting ribs 141 are arranged parallelly, and any two adjacent limiting ribs 141 are spaced apart; optionally, in this embodiment, there are seven limiting ribs 141 along the first direction and two along the second direction, and the limiting ribs 141 along different directions are interlaced to form a limiting bottom frame, and adjacent limiting ribs 141 are spaced apart, thereby limiting the physiotherapy pedal 113 installed in the assembly groove 11a. In addition, the support base 112 also includes a support base 112 located in the assembly groove 11a. The sealing ring 142 is located on the periphery of the bottom of the assembly groove 11a and on the outside of all the limiting ribs 141. It can be understood that the purpose of the sealing ring 142 is to play an anti-slip role for the physiotherapy pedal 113. When the physiotherapy pedal 113 is installed into the assembly groove 11a, the sealing ring 142 is pressed against the periphery of the bottom of the physiotherapy pedal 113, thereby squeezing the sealing ring 142 between the bottom wall of the assembly groove 11a and the bottom of the physiotherapy pedal 113. This further increases the moving friction of the physiotherapy pedal 113 and seals the bottom of the physiotherapy pedal 113, thereby playing a role in waterproofing, dustproofing and anti-slip of the bottom of the physiotherapy pedal 113.

[0044] In summary, this utility model provides a physiotherapy device. By designing a detachable physiotherapy pedal from the support device and electrically connecting the control console and the pedal via an electrical connection cable, the control console can control the pedal. This allows the physiotherapy pedal to operate whether it is attached to or detached from the support device. Therefore, when a user wants to use the physiotherapy pedal for foot therapy, whether sitting, lying down, or in another position, the pedal can meet the user's needs. This allows the user to choose a more suitable posture during the therapy, eliminating fatigue and exhaustion from prolonged therapy. For the elderly and those with mobility issues, this allows them to enjoy foot therapy in a more comfortable state, thereby improving the therapeutic effect and the user's recovery speed.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
