Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to personal care products, and more particularly to electrical stimulators. Background Technology
[0002] Electrical stimulation devices are widely used in fitness and body shaping, warm-up and relaxation, relief of neuropathic pain, improvement of muscle atrophy, and promotion of motor rehabilitation for stroke patients. However, existing electrical stimulation devices generally have the problem of taking up a lot of space, which to some extent limits their convenience of use and storage, making them inconvenient to carry around or put in a bag.
[0003] For example, CN221964081U provides a solution with detachable electrode patches, allowing users to remove the electrode patches from the main unit for separate storage after use to prevent damage. However, the main unit itself still occupies a considerable amount of space, making storage inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an electrical stimulator that can be folded and stored for easy storage and carrying by users.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a foldable and retractable electrostimulator, including: an electrostimulator body and a control box. The electrostimulator body is divided into a first part, a second part and a connecting part connected to the first part and the second part. The first part and the second part can be moved towards each other to a folded position or away from each other to an unfolded position along the connecting part. The control box is located on the first part or the second part to avoid the connecting part.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment: the first part and the second part are respectively provided with a first conductive fastener for electrical connection with the replaceable electrode.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment: the first part or the second part is further provided with a second conductive fastener that is electrically connected to the control box; the second conductive fastener is located on the side of the first part or the second part opposite to the first conductive fastener.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment: the electrical stimulator body is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer, the first conductive fixing member is disposed in the upper layer, and the second conductive fixing member is disposed in the lower layer.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment: the electrical stimulator body further includes a conductive material disposed between the upper and lower layers; the conductive material is divided into two segments, which are electrically connected to two first conductive fasteners respectively, and the two segments of conductive material are insulated from each other.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment: there are two second conductive fasteners, which are electrically connected to the two sections of conductive material respectively.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment: the conductive material is conductive adhesive tape.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment: the first part and the second part are respectively provided with magnetic connectors; when the first part and the second part move toward each other to the folded position, the first part and the second part are fixed in the folded position by the magnetic connectors.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment: the control box includes a circuit board and a battery; the positive and negative output terminals of the circuit board are electrically connected to the second conductive fixing member, and the battery is connected to the input terminal of the circuit board.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a storage bag is also included.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] This invention provides a foldable and portable electrostimulator. By changing the placement of the control box from the center to one side, interference with the folding of the electrostimulator is avoided, enabling foldable storage and reducing the overall size of the electrostimulator for easier storage and portability. Furthermore, the two replaceable electrode pads are stored together facing each other, thus effectively protecting them. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the technical solution and features of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are only for illustrating this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. After reading this utility model, any modifications of this utility model by those skilled in the art in various equivalent forms fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
[0024] refer to Figures 1-7 This embodiment provides a foldable and retractable electrical stimulator, including: an electrical stimulator body 1 and a control box 2. The electrical stimulator body 1 is divided into a first part 11, a second part 12 and a connecting part 13 connected to the first part 11 and the second part 12. The first part 11 and the second part 12 can be moved towards each other to a folded position or away from each other to an unfolded position along the connecting part 13. The control box 2 is located on the first part 11 or the second part 12 to avoid the connecting part 13.
[0025] The aforementioned foldable electrostimulator achieves foldable storage by repositioning the control box 2 from the center to one side, thus avoiding interference with the folding of the electrostimulator. This reduces the foldable size of the electrostimulator, making it easier for users to store and carry. An additional storage bag 3 can also be provided for users to place the folded electrostimulator inside.
[0026] To achieve the function of the electrical stimulator, in this embodiment, the first part 11 and the second part 12 are respectively provided with first conductive fixing members 111 and 121 for electrical connection with the replaceable electrode patch 14. The first part 11 is also provided with a second conductive fixing member 112 for electrical connection with the control box 2; of course, the second conductive fixing member 112 can also be placed in the second part 12, which is a simple replacement in this embodiment. The second conductive fixing member 112 is located on the side of the first part 11 opposite to the first conductive fixing member 111. In this way, the control box 2 and the replaceable electrode patch 14 are respectively located on both sides of the electrical stimulator. In this embodiment, the control box 2 includes a housing 21, a button 22, a circuit board 23 and a battery 24; the positive and negative output terminals of the circuit board 23 are respectively electrically connected to the second conductive fixing member 112, and the battery 24 is connected to the input terminal of the circuit board 23. In this way, the two replaceable electrode patches 14 are one positive and one negative. When the electrical stimulator is attached to the human body, the two replaceable electrode patches 14 are electrically connected through the human body to form a complete circuit, thereby realizing the function of the electrical stimulator.
[0027] To enable the control box 2 to electrically connect the two first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 respectively, the electrostimulator body 1 in this embodiment is divided into an upper layer 15 and a lower layer 16, and a conductive material 17 disposed between the upper layer 15 and the lower layer 16. The first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 are disposed on the upper layer 15, and there are two second conductive fasteners 112 disposed on the lower layer 16. The conductive material 17 is divided into two segments, which are electrically connected to the two first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 respectively, and the two segments of conductive material 17 are insulated from each other. The function of the conductive material 17 is to electrically connect the two first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 to the second conductive fasteners 112 respectively. Since the first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 are respectively disposed in the first part 11 and the second part 12, while the second conductive fastener 112 is only disposed in the first part 11, the first conductive fastener 121 disposed in the second part needs to be introduced into the second part 12 where the second conductive fastener 112 is located through the conductive material 17. This allows both first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 to be electrically connected to the two second conductive fasteners 112 respectively. Furthermore, the two first conductive fasteners 111 and 121 cannot be directly electrically connected together in the electrical stimulator body 1, so the two sections of conductive material 17 need to be insulated from each other.
[0028] In this embodiment, the conductive material 17 is conductive adhesive tape. This embodiment uses double-layer conductive tape for easy fixation; it can be directly attached between the upper layer 15 and the lower layer 16.
[0029] Furthermore, the first part 11 and the second part 12 are respectively provided with magnetic connectors 113 and 122; when the first part 11 and the second part 12 move towards each other to the folded position, the first part 11 and the second part 12 are fixed in the folded position by the magnetic connectors 113 and 122. As a simple alternative to this embodiment, other structures such as buttons, buckles, and Velcro can also be used to fix the folded position.
[0030] The above is only one specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the design concept of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantial modifications made to the present utility model using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the present utility model.
