[0060] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a cryotherapy machine, including: a base 1, a first body 2, a second body 3, a height adjustment mechanism 5, an air distribution assembly 6, and a drying assembly 7. The first body 2 and the second body 3 are both located on top of the base 1, and are positioned opposite each other. When the first body 2 and the second body 3 are closed together, a treatment chamber 4 is formed in the middle. The height adjustment mechanism 5 is located on top of the base 1 and inside the treatment chamber 4; during adjustment, the height adjustment mechanism 5 moves up and down along the height direction of the treatment chamber 4. The air distribution assembly 6 is located inside the first body 2 and the second body 3, and its air outlet communicates with the treatment chamber 4. The drying assembly 7 is located inside the first body 2 and the second body 3 and is used to dry the water vapor inside the treatment chamber 4 after the cryotherapy machine has been used.
[0062] During use, the first body 2 and the second head separate to facilitate the user's entry into the treatment chamber 4. Once the user is inside the treatment chamber 4, the first body 2 and the second body 3 close, and external equipment supplies liquid nitrogen to the gas distribution assembly 6, allowing the liquid nitrogen to enter the treatment chamber 4.
[0063] Because users have different heights, the height adjustment mechanism 5 located on the top of the base 1 is used to adjust the height so that the user's head is outside the treatment chamber 4.
[0064] After use, some water mist will adhere to the side wall of the treatment chamber 4, so it needs to be dried by the drying component 7.
[0065] When external equipment supplies nitrogen to the treatment chamber 4, a gas distribution assembly 6 is provided to ensure that the nitrogen temperature is more suitable and that the nitrogen enters the treatment chamber 4 more evenly. The gas distribution assembly 6 includes: an air inlet pipe 61, a buffer 62, multiple protrusions 64, multiple air outlet pipes 65, and a valve 66.
[0066] An air intake pipe 61 is installed on the outer casing of the first body 2 and the second body 3, and the air intake pipe 61 on the outer casing is connected to external equipment. A buffer member 62 is installed inside the first body 2 and the second body 3 and is connected to the air intake pipe 61. The buffer member 62 has a buffer chamber 63 in its middle. Multiple protrusions 64 are provided on the side wall of the buffer member 62 near the treatment chamber 4, and an air outlet pipe 65 is provided between four adjacent protrusions 64. The multiple air outlet pipes 65 connect the buffer chamber 63 and the treatment chamber 4. Each air outlet pipe 65 is provided with a valve 66.
[0067] During use, the external device supplies nitrogen to the buffer 62 through the air inlet pipe. The nitrogen enters the buffer 62 for adjustment. When the temperature of the nitrogen entering the buffer chamber 63 meets the preset value, the valve 66 is opened and the nitrogen enters the treatment chamber 4 through the air outlet pipe 65.
[0068] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the cryotherapy machine further includes an adjustment component 8, which is disposed within the base 1 and extends out of the base 1 at both ends. The first body 2 and the second body 3 are respectively connected to the two ends of the adjustment component 8.
[0069] In order to facilitate the opening and closing of the first body 2 and the second body 3 during use, an adjustment component 8 is provided in the base 1. The adjustment component 8 can drive the first body 2 and the second body 3 to move.
[0070] More specifically, the adjustment assembly 8 includes a two-way cylinder 81 and a mounting base 82. The two-way cylinder 81 is mounted on top of the base 1, and its piston rod extends out of the base 1 after installation. The mounting base 82 is mounted on the ends of the two piston rods of the two-way cylinder 81, and the first body 2 and the second body 3 are respectively disposed on top of the mounting base.
[0071] When the treatment chamber 4 of the cryotherapy machine is opened, the bidirectional cylinder 81 extends outward, causing the first body 2 and the second body 3 to move in opposite directions. When the treatment chamber 4 is closed, the piston rod of the bidirectional cylinder 81 retracts, causing the first body 2 and the second body 3 to move relative to each other until the treatment chamber 4 is completely closed.
[0072] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to improve the heat preservation effect of the cryotherapy machine, the cryotherapy machine further includes: a heat preservation layer, which is disposed on the side of the first body 2 and the second body 3 away from the treatment chamber 4.
[0073] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the height adjustment mechanism 5 includes: a mounting plate 51, a lifting component 52, and a standing platform 53. The mounting plate 51 is mounted on the top of the base 1. The fixed end of the lifting component 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 51, and its movable end is vertically upward. The standing platform 53 is fixedly connected to the movable end of the lifting component 52.
[0074] Once the user stands on the standing platform 53, the lifting mechanism 52 adjusts according to the user's height so that the user's head is completely outside the treatment chamber 4. Then, the gas distribution assembly 6 supplies nitrogen to the treatment chamber 4.
[0075] To improve the smoothness of use of the height adjustment mechanism 5, the lifting component 52 has three parts, which are distributed in an isosceles triangle on the top of the mounting plate 51.
[0076] It should be noted that the lifting component 52 is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, electric lifting rod, or other lifting mechanism capable of linear motion.
[0077] In another embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drying assembly 7 includes a heating element 71, a temperature sensor 72, and a controller 73. The heating element 71 is disposed inside the first body 2 and the second body 3, and is located near the treatment chamber 4 after installation. The temperature sensor 72 is installed on the inner wall of the first body 2 and the second body 3 to detect the temperature inside the first body 2 and the second body 3. The controller 73 is electrically connected to the heating element 71 and the temperature sensor 72.
[0078] After use, the water mist in the treatment chamber 4 needs to be treated to prevent bacterial growth. Therefore, a heating element 71 is installed, and the controller 73 controls the heating element 71 to work, so that the water mist on the side wall of the treatment chamber 4 is quickly evaporated. The temperature sensor 72 detects the temperature inside the first body 2 and the second body 3 in real time for easy adjustment.
[0079] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
