Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, specifically to a foot bath tub with a reminder function. Background Technology
[0002] Foot soaking is a traditional Chinese medicine health practice. Soaking feet in a foot bath helps to unblock the meridians in the feet, promote blood circulation, relieve fatigue, relax the mind and body, and achieve the purpose of disease prevention and treatment. In particular, the effect is even better when some medicines are added to the foot bath. The water used for foot soaking is usually boiled water that has been cooled to a suitable temperature. Users often need to measure the temperature with a thermometer, which is very inconvenient. There are also foot baths on the market that display the temperature, but nurses in wards or TCM clinics need to frequently test the water temperature or walk close to check the temperature display, which increases the workload of nurses. Users with poor eyesight also have the same problem. If the time interval for checking the water temperature is not well controlled, the foot soaking time will be reduced if the water temperature is too low, or boiling water will be added and the water temperature will be readjusted, which is troublesome. To enhance the therapeutic effect, herbal packets are placed in the foot bath tub. However, some packets float on the surface, resulting in insufficient contact between the packets and the water, thus reducing the effectiveness of the medicine. Additionally, the packets move and rub against the feet during the foot bath, which is uncomfortable and can even break the packets, causing the medicine to spill into the water, affecting the enjoyment of the foot bath and making subsequent cleaning more difficult.
[0003] Most foot bath tubs are open, and when the water temperature is adjusted to a suitable level, it cools down before the soaking time is up, especially on cool days. Utility Model Content
