Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of breast pumps, specifically a breast pump with a heating structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, breast pumps on the market typically incorporate heating elements in the bra area to alleviate breast engorgement and improve user comfort. However, these heating elements are directly mounted on the bra, which, as the part in direct contact with the breast, often accumulates milk residue in its internal milk channels after each use. This necessitates frequent cleaning to maintain hygiene and prevent bacterial growth. During cleaning, moisture inevitably comes into contact with the conductive terminals of the heating element, leading to corrosion and oxidation. This reduces the conductivity of the terminals, potentially causing short circuits or poor contact.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a breast pump with a heating structure to solve the problem of frequent cleaning of the heating components. Utility Model Content

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] Please see Figure 1-9 The present invention discloses a breast pump with a heating structure, including a main unit 1, a milk bowl 5, and a bra 2 connected to the main unit 1. It also includes a heating component 3 connected to the main unit 1. The heating component 3 is provided with a connection terminal 31 that is electrically connected to the main unit 1. The bra 2 is provided with a milk suction channel 21 and a contact part 22 for contacting the breast. The heating component 3 is detachably disposed on the side of the main unit 1 that contacts the breast. The heating component 3 and the bra 2 together form a contact surface 4 that contacts the breast.

[0036] This invention sets the heating component 3 to be connected to the main unit 1 and places the heating component 3 on the side of the main unit 1 that contacts the breast, so that the heating component 3 and the bra 2 together form the contact surface 4 that contacts the breast. This not only achieves the heating effect of the heating component 3 on the breast, but also realizes the separation structure of the heating component 3 and the bra 2, so that the user can remove the bra 2 separately for cleaning. This avoids problems such as short circuits or poor contact that may occur due to corrosion and oxidation of the connection terminal 31 caused by frequent cleaning of the heating component 3.

[0037] In existing breast pumps, the heating element is typically fixed to the breast shield body, with its conductive terminals exposed on the shield. As the key component that directly contacts the breast and collects breast milk, the breast shield inevitably accumulates milk residue in its pumping channels after each use. Therefore, frequent disassembly and cleaning of the breast shield are necessary to maintain hygiene and prevent bacterial growth. However, during cleaning, moisture or cleaning solutions can easily seep into the conductive terminals, causing them to be corroded by moisture. This can lead to oxidation and corrosion, affecting conductivity and even causing electrical faults such as short circuits and poor contact, thus reducing the safety and lifespan of the breast pump.

[0038] This invention separates the heating component 3 from the bra 2, ensuring that the heating component 3 can heat the breast normally while allowing the two components to operate independently. After pumping, the user only needs to remove the bra 2 for cleaning, avoiding corrosion and oxidation caused by prolonged contact between the connecting terminal 31 and water due to frequent cleaning of the heating component 3. This reduces electrical faults such as short circuits and poor contact in the heating component 3. Furthermore, the heating component 3 is made of a flexible material, which has good flexibility and fit, better adapting to different breast shapes and improving wearing comfort. It also facilitates the even distribution of heat and improves the heating effect. In addition, by setting up a milk bowl 5 connected to the main unit 1, the pumped milk can flow into the milk bowl 5 through the milk suction channel 21, ensuring the hygiene and convenience of milk collection and storage.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The present invention relates to a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the heating component 3 is provided with a connecting part on one side of the main unit 1, and the main unit 1 is also provided with a docking part that cooperates with the connecting part, and both the connecting part and the docking part are provided in multiple portions.

[0040] This invention achieves a detachable connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1 by providing a connecting part on one side of the heating component 3 and a mating part on the main unit 1. This further enhances the independence and ease of use of the heating component 3. This design not only ensures that the heating component 3 can be stably installed on the main unit 1, but also facilitates quick disassembly by the user when cleaning or replacement is required. Furthermore, multiple connecting parts and mating parts are provided, making the connection more secure and evenly distributed, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure and the reliability of the electrical connection.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The present invention relates to a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the main unit 1 is further provided with a power supply slot 11 into which the connection terminal 31 extends, and a power supply terminal 12 that is electrically connected to the connection terminal 31, the power supply terminal 12 being elastically arranged.

[0042] This invention ensures a stable and reliable electrical connection between the connecting terminal 31 and the power supply terminal 12 by providing a power supply groove 11 on the main unit 1 into which the connecting terminal 31 extends. This not only improves the stability of the electrical connection but also effectively prevents poor contact caused by accidental collisions or vibrations, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the heating component 3. Furthermore, by adopting an elastic setting for the power supply terminal 12, the reliability of the electrical connection is further enhanced. The elastic power supply terminal 12 can automatically adjust according to the position of the connecting terminal 31, ensuring that the two always maintain close contact, thereby ensuring a stable electrical connection. Furthermore, in this embodiment, by setting the power supply terminal 12 on the inner side wall of the power supply groove 11, the power supply terminal 12 is connected to the side wall of the connecting terminal 31, ensuring the stability of the electrical connection.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the connecting part is a connecting post 32, and the mating part is a connecting groove 13 into which the connecting post 32 extends and fits, and the depth H1 of the connecting groove 13 is greater than the length H2 of the connecting post 32.

[0044] This invention features a connecting post 32 on one side of the heating component 3 located on the main unit 1, and a connecting groove 13 on the main unit 1 into which the connecting post 32 extends. This creates a detachable connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1, allowing users to quickly disassemble and install the heating component 3 for cleaning or maintenance. Furthermore, multiple connecting posts 32 and connecting grooves 13 are provided, enhancing the stability and reliability of the connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1. This ensures the heating component 3 is firmly fixed to the main unit 1 during use, preventing poor contact due to loose connections. Additionally, by setting the depth H1 of the connecting groove 13 to be greater than the length H2 of the connecting post 32, a certain amount of space remains after the connecting post 32 is inserted into the connecting groove 13. This design ensures that during breast pumping, when the breast presses against the heating component 3, the reserved space provides a buffering effect, preventing direct rigid contact between the connecting post 32 and the breast, thus enhancing user comfort.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The present invention relates to a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the connecting post 32 is provided with a protruding elastic abutment 321 around its periphery, the elastic abutment 321 being used to abut against the inner wall of the connecting groove 13.

[0046] This invention provides a protruding elastic abutment part 321 around the connecting column 32, which abuts against the inner wall of the connecting groove 13. When the heating component 3 is connected to the main unit 1, the elastic abutment part 321 can generate a certain elastic deformation force, thereby pressing the inner wall of the connecting groove 13, enhancing the tightness of the fit between the connecting column 32 and the connecting groove 13, effectively preventing the connecting column 32 and the connecting groove 13 from loosening due to vibration or external force during use, and improving the stability of the connection between the connecting column 32 and the connecting groove 13.

[0047] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The breast pump shown has a heating structure, wherein the contact portion 22 of the bra is provided with a mating end 221 for cooperating with the heating component 3, and the heating component 3 abuts against the mating end 221 so that the contact surface 4 is flared in cross section.

[0048] The mating end 221 is provided with a support portion 222 for supporting the heating component 3.

[0049] This invention achieves a tight fit between the heating component 3 and the bra 2 by providing a mating end 221 around the contact portion 22 of the bra 2 for cooperating with the heating component 3, and by having the heating component 3 abut against this mating end 221. This forms an integral structure that directly contacts the breast. This design not only allows the heating component 3 to fit securely against the breast surface, improving wearing comfort, but also enhances heat conduction efficiency, ensuring that heat is evenly distributed across the entire contact surface, providing a comfortable experience for the user. Furthermore, the tight contact between the heating component 3 and the mating end 221 not only facilitates heat transfer but also enhances the stability of the overall structure, preventing issues during use. The heating component 3 and the bra 2 form a flared contact surface 4, which better fits the breast, further improving user satisfaction and comfort. Furthermore, the present invention enhances the structural stability of the connection between the heating component 3 and the bra 2 by providing a support portion 222 on the mating end 221 to support the heating component 3. The support portion 222 provides support for the heating component 3 during use, preventing it from sagging, deforming, or shifting due to gravity or external pressure, thus ensuring that the heating component always fits tightly against the breast surface, maintaining good heating effect and wearing comfort.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the heating component 3 includes a flexible contact 33 and a heating element located inside the flexible contact 33, and the flexible contact 33, the connecting part and the heating element are integrally formed by overmolding.

[0051] The heating component 3 of this invention includes a flexible contact 33 for conforming to the breast, and a heating element located inside the flexible contact 33. The flexible contact 33, the connecting part, and the heating element are integrally connected by a rubber coating. This design not only improves the overall sealing performance of the heating component 3, effectively preventing moisture and other impurities from entering and affecting the operation of electrical components, thus avoiding short circuits or corrosion caused by moisture intrusion; furthermore, the integral rubber coating design can effectively simplify the assembly process, thereby improving production efficiency; furthermore, this design gives the heating component 3 higher structural strength and stability, further extending the product's service life; furthermore, this design ensures a tight bond between the heating element and the flexible contact 33, which helps to transfer heat more evenly to the breast surface.

[0052] Example 2:

[0053] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the connecting part and the docking part are connected by magnetic attraction.

[0054] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, the connecting post 32 does not need to have a protruding elastic abutment part 321 on its periphery to abut against the inner wall of the connecting groove 13 to achieve the connection between the connecting part and the mating part. Instead, a magnetic connection structure is adopted between the connecting part and the mating part, so that the connecting post 32 can be magnetically connected after being inserted into the connecting groove 13. This improves the convenience and stability of the connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1. This setting not only allows users to easily complete the installation and disassembly of the heating component 3, but also facilitates the user's cleaning and maintenance work in daily use. At the same time, it ensures that the electrical connection between the two is stable and reliable, avoiding poor contact problems caused by loose connection.

[0055] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-9 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the connecting part is a connecting post 32, the docking part is a connecting groove 13, the connecting groove 13 is provided with a first fixing groove 131 on the side away from the connecting post 32, and the connecting post 32 is provided with a second fixing groove 322 on the side close to the first fixing groove 131. The first fixing groove 131 and the second fixing groove 322 are used to install magnets so that the connecting post 32 and the connecting groove 13 are connected by magnetic attraction.

[0056] This invention achieves a magnetic connection between the connecting post 32 and the connecting groove 13 by providing a first fixing groove 131 on the side of the connecting groove 13 away from the connecting post 32, and a second fixing groove 322 on the connecting post 32 near the same side. Magnets are installed in the first fixing groove 131 and the second fixing groove 322. This design effectively improves the convenience of connecting the heating component 3 and the main unit 1, allowing users to easily complete disassembly and installation operations. Furthermore, this design also enhances the stability of the connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1, preventing accidental detachment due to external vibration during use.

[0057] Example 3:

[0058] In this embodiment, not only is a protruding elastic abutment part 321 provided around the connecting column 32 to abut against the inner wall of the connecting groove 13 to realize the connection between the connecting part and the mating part, but also the connecting part and the mating part are connected by magnetic attraction, so that after the connecting column 32 is fixed in the connecting groove 13 by the elastic abutment part 321, the connection can be strengthened by magnets, which further enhances the stability of the connection between the heating component 3 and the host 1.

[0059] Example 4:

[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-12 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the connecting part is a magnetic connector 34 and the docking part is a magnetic adsorption member 14 that is magnetically connected to the magnetic connector 34.

[0061] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the connecting part in this embodiment is a magnetic connector 34, and the mating part is magnetically connected to the magnetic connector 34 by a magnetic adsorption component 14, thereby realizing the magnetic connection between the heating component 3 and the main unit 1. This setting not only simplifies the user's installation and disassembly process, making the operation more convenient and faster, but also ensures a stable and reliable connection between the two, avoiding loosening or falling off due to accidental collisions or external forces. Furthermore, the uniform arrangement of multiple magnetic connectors 34 and magnetic adsorption components 14 can also provide a uniformly distributed attractive force, further enhancing the stability of the connection and the reliability of the electrical contact.

[0062] Furthermore, such as Figure 1-12 The illustration shows a breast pump with a heating structure, wherein the heating component 3 is provided with a through hole 35 for the contact portion 22 to extend into, and the heating component 3 is arranged in a ring.

[0063] In this invention, the heating component 3 and the contact portion 22 do not contact each other. Instead, a through hole 35 is provided on the heating component 3 for the contact portion 22 of the bra 2 to extend into, and the heating component 3 is arranged in a ring shape, so that the heating component 3 surrounds the outside of the contact portion 22. This arrangement not only further increases the contact area between the heating component 3 and the breast, but also ensures that the heat can be evenly distributed in the area around the breast, thereby improving the user's comfort and the heat therapy effect. Furthermore, the ring-shaped heating component 3 can better adapt to the shape and size of different users' breasts, and at the same time, it is also conducive to maintaining all-round contact between the bra 2 and the breast.

[0064] The above examples are merely illustrative of the technical content of this utility model to facilitate reader understanding, but do not imply that the implementation of this utility model is limited to these embodiments. Any technical extensions or re-creations made based on this utility model are protected by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the claims.
