[0002] At present, the treatment methods of tumors mainly include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and the like, but all have corresponding shortcomings, such as side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and killing of normal cells. The use of electric field to treat tumors is also one of the current research frontiers, and tumor electric field treatment is a tumor treatment method for generating a low-intensity, medium-high frequency alternating electric field by a special electric field generator to interfere with the mitotic process of tumor cells. Studies have shown that electric field treatment has a significant effect in the treatment of diseases such as glioblastoma, non-small cell lung cancer and malignant pleural mesothelioma. The electric field applied by this method can affect the aggregation of tubulin protein, prevent spindle formation, inhibit the mitotic process, and induce apoptosis of cancer cells.
[0003] A common tumor electric field treatment device for tumor electric field treatment includes an electric field generating device and a pair of electrode patches. The electrode patches are attached to the body surface at the tissue region where the patient's lesion is located. The electric field generating device generates an alternating current signal and transmits the alternating current signal to the electrode patches to alternately generate an alternating electric field between each pair of electrode patches, thereby treating the tissue region where the patient's lesion is located. Chinese patent No. CN219290450U discloses an electric field generating device including a shell, an MCU circuit board and a battery, etc. The MCU circuit board and the battery are arranged side by side in the shell.

The electric field generating device 100 includes at least one open shell (not numbered) and a cover (not numbered) arranged at the opening of the shell (not numbered) and closing the opening. The shell (not numbered) includes a first shell (not numbered) and a second shell (not numbered) arranged with the first shell (not numbered). In this embodiment, the first shell (not numbered) is also referred to as the upper shell 20, and the second shell (not numbered) is also referred to as the lower shell 30. The upper shell 20 and the lower shell 30 are assembled and fixed in a top-to-bottom manner to form a cylindrical structure with front and rear openings. The cover (not numbered) includes a front cover assembly 10 and a rear cover assembly 40. The front cover assembly 10 is fixed at the front end opening of the upper shell 20 and the lower shell 30, and the rear cover assembly 40 is fixed at the rear end opening of the upper shell 20 and the lower shell 30. The front cover assembly 10, the upper shell 20, the lower shell 30, and the rear cover assembly 40 are arranged together to form a cavity (not numbered). The electric field generating device 100 further includes an inner support assembly (not numbered) located in the cavity (not numbered). The inner support assembly (not numbered) includes an inner support 60 and a plurality of circuit boards 70 fixed on the inner support 60. The plurality of circuit boards 70 includes a power supply board 71, a main board 72, and a high-power circuit board 73. The electric field generating device 100 further includes a battery assembly 50 detachably arranged in the shell (not numbered). The battery assembly 50 is used to supply power to the circuit boards 70.
[0028] In combination Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown, the power supply board 71, the main board 72, and the high-power circuit board 73 are all installed on the side of the inner support 60 facing the upper shell 20 through screws. The power supply board 71 is arranged at the edge of the inner support 60 close to the front cover assembly 10, and can be connected to an external power source to supply power to the main board 72 and the high-power circuit board 73. The inner support assembly (not numbered) further includes a socket assembly 80. An external power adapter (not shown) passes through the socket assembly 80 and is connected to a power socket (not numbered) on the power supply board 71. The socket assembly 80 can also seal the gap between the front cover assembly 10 and the circuit boards 70, and has a waterproof function. The power supply board 71 and the main board 72 are distributed in a left-to-right manner at one end of the inner support 60 close to the front cover assembly 10. The high-power circuit board 73 is arranged at one end of the inner support 60 close to the rear cover assembly 40 and has a substrate 731 and a plurality of high-power electronic devices 732 arranged on the substrate 731. The inner support assembly (not numbered) further includes a heat sink 74 located on the high-power circuit board 73 and facing the upper shell 20, which is used to help the high-power circuit board 73 dissipate heat quickly.
[0029] In reference Figures 4 to 6and in combination with Figure 2 As shown in the figures, the inner support 60 has a first battery compartment 61 located at the bottom side thereof, and the lower shell 30 is provided with a second battery compartment 31 corresponding to the first battery compartment 61. When the inner support 60 is assembled with the lower shell 30 in an up-down manner, the first battery compartment 61 and the second battery compartment 31 jointly form a battery compartment 101 for accommodating the battery assembly 50. The inner support 60 further has a first heat dissipation compartment 62 located at the bottom side thereof, and the lower shell 30 is provided with a second heat dissipation compartment 32 corresponding to the first heat dissipation compartment 62. When the inner support 60 is assembled with the lower shell 30 in an up-down manner, the first heat dissipation compartment 62 and the second heat dissipation compartment 32 jointly form a lower heat dissipation compartment 102 close to the rear end of the shell (not numbered). The inner support 60 further has an opening 63 penetrating therethrough and located at the rear portion thereof. The opening 63 is arranged corresponding to the high-power circuit board 73 but has a size slightly smaller than that of the substrate 731 of the high-power circuit board 73. The high-power circuit board 73 is fixed to the side of the inner support 60 facing the upper shell 20, and the electronic devices 732 on the side of the high-power circuit board 73 facing the inner support 60 are arranged in the lower heat dissipation compartment 102 through the opening 63.
[0030] The inner support 60 further has a first partition rib 64 located at the bottom side thereof and between the first battery compartment 61 and the first heat dissipation compartment 62, and the lower shell 30 further has a second partition rib 33 located between the second battery compartment 31 and the second heat dissipation compartment 32 and corresponding to the first partition rib 64. The first partition rib 64 and the second partition rib 33 are in up-down abutment, jointly partitioning the battery compartment 101 and the lower heat dissipation compartment 102, i.e., partitioning the high-power circuit board 73 and the battery assembly 50, to avoid heat on the high-power circuit board 73 from being transferred to the battery assembly 50.
[0031] The inner support 60 further has a third partition rib 65 on the top side thereof, and the upper shell 20 further has a fourth partition rib 21 on the bottom side thereof and corresponding to the third partition rib 65. The third partition rib 65 is substantially aligned with the first partition rib 64 in the up-down direction, and the power board 71 and the main board 72 are both on the same side of the third partition rib 65, and the high-power circuit board 73 and the heat sink 74 are both on the other side of the third partition rib 65. After the inner support 60 and the upper shell 20 are assembled, the third partition rib 65 of the inner support 60 and the fourth partition rib 21 of the upper shell 20 together divide the space enclosed by the inner support 60 and the upper shell 20 into an upper heat dissipation compartment 103 on one side of the third partition rib 65 and a receiving cavity (not numbered) on the other side of the third partition rib 65 for receiving the power board 71 and the main board 72. The substrate 731 of the high-power circuit board 73 and the heat sink 74 are located in the upper heat dissipation compartment 103, and the power board 71 and the main board 72 are located in the receiving cavity (not numbered) and isolated from the upper heat dissipation compartment 103. That is, the high-power circuit board 73, the power board 71 and the main board 72 are separated by the third partition rib 65 and the fourth partition rib 21. In this way, heat generated by the high-power circuit board 73 can be prevented from being transferred to the power board 71 and the main board 72. The upper heat dissipation compartment 103 and the lower heat dissipation compartment 102 can be collectively referred to as a heat dissipation compartment (not numbered). The upper heat dissipation compartment 103 is located at the rear side of the receiving cavity (not numbered), and the lower heat dissipation compartment 102 is also located at the rear side of the battery compartment 101.
[0032] Returning to Figure 2 As shown in the drawings, the upper shell 20 and the lower shell 30 are respectively provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes 104 located on the left and right opposite sides thereof and close to the rear cover assembly 40. The heat dissipation holes 104 are in communication with the corresponding lower heat dissipation compartment 102 or upper heat dissipation compartment 103. External air enters from one side of the heat dissipation holes 104, flows through the high-power circuit board 73 and the heat sink 74, and flows out from the other side of the heat dissipation holes 104, thereby carrying away the heat generated by the high-power circuit board 73 during operation. The electric field generating device 100 further includes a waterproof pad (not shown) provided in the heat dissipation compartment (not numbered) and corresponding to the heat dissipation holes 104, so as to prevent external water vapor, dust and the like from entering the heat dissipation compartment (not numbered) through the heat dissipation holes 104 and affecting the performance of the high-power circuit board 73. The electric field generating device 100 further includes a fan 75 provided on the inner support 60. The inner support 60 further has a fan holder 66 for fixing the fan 75. The fan 75 is fixed in the fan holder 66 and close to the heat dissipation holes 104, so as to accelerate the exchange of air in the lower heat dissipation compartment 102 and the upper heat dissipation compartment 103 with external air, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the high-power circuit board 73.
[0033] The electric field generating device 100 of the present application separately locates the high-power circuit board 73 in the heat dissipation compartment (not numbered), so as to prevent the power board 71 and the main board 72 from being affected by the heat generated by the high-power circuit board 73, and at the same time improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the high-power circuit board 73.
[0034] The above merely provides preferred implementation of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
