Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of physiotherapy equipment technology, and in particular to a foot physiotherapy device. Background Technology

[0002] With the accelerating pace of modern life, people not only enjoy a fast-paced, high-quality lifestyle, but also experience corresponding stress. The feet contain a large number of nerves, and strain on the feet can manifest as fatigue in the body. Therefore, to ensure people's health, a range of foot care devices have emerged. The most common type is the foot massager, which stimulates the soles of the feet through mechanical structures. There are also technologies that utilize mugwort fumigation of the feet, such as the fumigation device disclosed in patent application CN202221789424.7; or the thermotherapy foot care tub disclosed in patent application CN202120227100.3. These devices use far-infrared heating plates and far-infrared heating technology, applying the concept of thermotherapy. Utilizing the penetrating effect of far-infrared rays, they penetrate the skin and directly act on the deeper layers of the body, resonating with human cells to raise the temperature of subcutaneous tissue and warm the body. An ozone ion generator periodically sterilizes, penetrating deep into crevices and corners for thorough and effective disinfection. The foot massager provides foot massage while simultaneously providing thermotherapy, promoting blood circulation and enhancing the therapeutic effect. There are also technical solutions for massaging the soles of the feet through electrical stimulation, such as a foot massager disclosed in patent document CN201921275081.0, which uses electrical stimulation to massage the soles of the feet, mainly by repeatedly stimulating the soles of the feet with high-frequency pulsed current to achieve health care effects.

[0003] Using a hot foot care tub can effectively care for the feet. However, because the far-infrared heating plate is placed vertically to accommodate the tub's structure, it encroaches on the tub's internal space to some extent. To leave more space for the legs and feet, the size of the tub needs to be increased, resulting in a relatively large overall structure. Furthermore, the vertically placed far-infrared heating plate mainly targets the calves, while its effect on the feet is relatively limited. Utility Model Content

[0026] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the foot physiotherapy device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a physiotherapy device base 100, a far-infrared heating plate 200 horizontally disposed inside the physiotherapy device base 100, a panel 300 connected to the top of the physiotherapy device base 100, and a cover 400 connected to the top of the physiotherapy device and covering the panel 300. A flow gap 500 is provided between the cover 400 and the panel 300. The far-infrared heating plate 200 is located on the central axis of the physiotherapy device base 100 and below the panel 300. A guide hood 600 is connected between the panel 300 and the far-infrared heating plate 200. The outer periphery of the top of the guide hood 600 abuts against the inner wall of the cover 400. The air outlet of the guide hood 600 communicates with the flow gap 500. The air inlet of the guide hood 600 is disposed on the periphery of the far-infrared heating plate 200. A cooling fan 700 is connected to the air inlet. Multiple air inlet grilles 110 are provided on the bottom of the physiotherapy device base 100.

[0027] In actual use, the far-infrared heating plate 200 is used to treat the feet. At the same time, the air guide 600 and the cooling fan 700 can blow out the heat generated by the far-infrared heating plate 200 through the airflow gap 500 to keep the feet warm and increase the therapeutic effect.

[0028] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the cover 400 has a left foot notch and a right foot notch, thereby dividing the panel 300 into a left foot area 301 and a right foot area 302.

[0029] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: a partition 610 is provided on the central axis of the air guide 600, the partition 610 adapts the air guide 600 to the left foot area 301 and the right foot area 302 to form a left air outlet channel 620 and a right air outlet channel 630, the left air outlet channel 620 is connected to the flow gap 500 of the left foot area 301, and the right air outlet channel 630 is connected to the flow gap 500 of the right foot area 302.

[0030] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: two air inlets are provided and are respectively connected to the left air outlet 620 and the right air outlet 630, the two air inlets are respectively located on both sides of the far-infrared heating plate 200, and two cooling fans 700 are adapted to be provided and are respectively connected to the two air inlets.

[0031] The design of the partition 610 effectively optimizes the airflow, ensuring that the airflow from the left foot area 301 and the right foot area 302 is not significantly different, thus providing the same experience for both feet.

[0032] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the panel 300 includes a pressure plate 310, a heat-conducting layer 320 and a contact layer 330 connected sequentially from bottom to top.

[0033] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the heat-conducting layer 320 is a graphene vapor chamber plate, and the contact layer 330 is a pad with a thickness of 20mm-40mm. During the operation of the foot therapy device, in addition to generating far-infrared rays, the far-infrared heating plate 200 also exchanges heat with the surrounding air, causing the surrounding air to heat up. The air guide 600 with the cooling fan 700 blows the high-temperature airflow out from the flow gap 500. In this process, the high-temperature airflow also exchanges heat with the graphene vapor chamber plate, causing the graphene vapor chamber plate to heat up. The graphene vapor chamber plate can evenly transfer heat to the entire plate surface, so that the temperature difference of the foot in contact with the plate 300 is not large at various positions, thereby effectively improving comfort.

[0034] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the pressure plate 310 uses a metal plate with high structural strength and good thermal conductivity. The specific metal plate can be selected according to actual market demand, and is not limited here.

[0035] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the material of the mat is sponge, latex, or rubber. Sponge, latex, or rubber are all commonly used materials in the prior art. They have the characteristics of being soft, and a thicker mat will not hinder heat conduction on the one hand, nor will it cause the possibility of burns to the feet after prolonged contact with the mat.

[0036] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: a waterproof membrane (not shown in the figure) is wrapped on the contact layer 330. By setting the waterproof membrane, liquids such as foot sweat are prevented from seeping into the mat, thereby improving the overall durability and service life and reducing the number of times the mat needs to be replaced.

[0037] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the bottom of the physiotherapy device base 100 is connected to multiple foot pads 120. The height of the foot pads 120 is 20mm-30mm. Through this design, the multiple evenly arranged foot pads 120 provide stable support points for the physiotherapy device base 100 after the center of gravity is raised, thereby ensuring stability. At the same time, the inlet grille set at the bottom of the raised physiotherapy device base 100 can smoothly draw air from the outside, ensuring air circulation inside the physiotherapy device base 100.

[0038] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features: the far-infrared heating plate 200 is a graphene electric heating plate.

[0039] It should be noted that the graphene heating plate and the cooling fan 700 are both commonly used technical solutions in the prior art, and their specific structures and principles will not be described in detail here. Both the graphene heating plate and the cooling fan 700 are electrically connected to the power supply (not shown in the figure) connected to the physiotherapy device base 100.

[0040] Working principle or working process:

[0041] By energizing the graphene heating plate, far-infrared rays are generated. Utilizing the penetrating effect of far-infrared rays, they penetrate the human skin and act directly on the deep layers of the body, resonating with human cells to raise the temperature of subcutaneous tissue, warming the body and achieving a sub-high temperature heat circulation from the soles of the feet to the whole body's blood and body fluids. This promotes the dilation of human blood vessels and opens up various microcirculations in the body.

[0042] During this process, the heat generated by the graphene heating plate or the airflow driven by the cooling fan 700 is blown out from the flow gap 500 under the action of the flow guide 600. Since the flow gap 500 is set around the left foot area 301 and the right foot area 302 respectively, the high-temperature airflow blown out from the flow gap 500 will keep the feet warm during the physiotherapy process.

[0043] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
