[0034] The following is combined Figures 1 to 7 This invention describes the foot bath device provided by this utility model.

[0035] This utility model provides a foot bath device, including: a tub body 100, a heating chamber 200, a heating component 300, an atomizing component 400, and a first water guiding component 500.

[0036] A first water storage chamber 110 is formed inside the barrel body 100; a heating chamber 200 is disposed inside the barrel body 100, and a second water storage chamber 210 is formed inside the heating chamber 200; a heating assembly 300 includes a heating element 310, which is disposed inside the heating chamber 200 and is used to heat the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210; an atomizing assembly 400 includes an atomizing chamber 410 and an atomizing element 420, wherein the atomizing chamber 410 is provided with an atomizing groove 411, and the atomizing element 420 is disposed in the atomizing groove 411 to atomize the liquid in the atomizing groove 411 to form atomized gas; a first water guiding assembly 500 includes a first guide A water channel 510 and a first water pump 520 are provided. The first water pump 520 is located in the first water channel 510 and can pump the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411. The first end of the first water channel 510 is connected to the second water storage chamber 210, and the second end of the first water channel 510 is connected to the bottom of the atomizing tank 411. The second end of the first water channel 510 is located above the first end of the first water channel 510. When the atomizing element 420 stops working, the first water channel 510 and the first water pump 520 can cause the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 to flow into the second water storage chamber 210.

[0037] The foot bath device provided by this utility model can heat the liquid in the heating chamber 200 and guide the heated liquid into the atomizing tank 411 using the first water guiding channel 510 and the first water guiding pump 520. Under the action of the atomizing component 420, the heated liquid forms atomized gas with a certain temperature. The atomized gas can be used to fumigate the upper part of the user's calves and knees, etc., to meet the user's fumigation therapy needs. Since the second end of the first water guiding channel 510 is connected to the bottom of the atomizing tank 411 and the second end of the first water guiding channel 510 is located above the first end of the first water guiding channel 510, when the fumigation function is completed and the first water guiding pump 520 is turned off, the residual water in the atomizing tank 411 can flow back to the second water storage chamber 210 under its own gravity along the first water guiding channel 510, avoiding the long-term stagnation of liquid in the atomizing tank 411 and causing the water to smell bad, thus ensuring that the atomizing component 400 remains clean and hygienic.

[0038] Specifically, the foot bath device provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a tub 100, a heating chamber 200, a heating component 300, and an atomizing component 400.

[0039] The tub body 100 includes a main body 120, a base 130, a cover 140, and an insulated cover 150. A first water storage chamber 110 is formed within the main body 120, serving to hold water and provide space for a foot bath, with a certain volume to accommodate the user's feet. The base 130 is detachably mounted on the bottom of the heating chamber 200, providing support for the main body 120 and mounting specific components required for the foot bath. The cover 140 seals the heating chamber 200 area and includes an electronic control module and a heating chamber 200 cover 160 for opening or closing the second water storage chamber 210. The insulated cover 150 is used to open or close the first water storage chamber 110.

[0040] The heating chamber 200 is used to store liquid. The heating component 300 heats the liquid to increase its temperature, so that it can be atomized into a vapor at a certain temperature under the action of the atomizing component 420. The liquid can be tap water or medicine, etc., and there are no special restrictions.

[0041] In some embodiments, medicine (such as medicine packets or medicinal materials) can also be added to the heating chamber 200. Under the action of the heating element 310, the liquid in the medicine can be raised to a higher temperature (such as above 50°C), which can fully extract the active ingredients in the medicine. At this time, the second water storage chamber 210 can be connected to the first water storage chamber 110, so that the high-concentration, high-temperature medicinal liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 can be introduced into the first water storage chamber 110 to mix with the low-temperature water, thereby obtaining a foot bath solution with a suitable temperature and sufficient efficacy.

[0042] The heating assembly 300 is used to heat the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 to a high temperature (e.g., greater than 50°C). The heating assembly 300 includes a heating element 310, which can rapidly heat the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 when energized. The heating element 310 can be a heating body, heating wire, or heating tube, etc., and there are no special limitations on it.

[0043] The atomizing component 400 is used to atomize the liquid introduced into the atomizing tank 411 from the second water storage chamber 210 to form atomized gas, and can also export the atomized gas into the first water storage chamber 110 to fumigate the upper and middle parts of the user's calves and knees. The atomizing component 400 includes an atomizing chamber 410 and an atomizing element 420. The atomizing chamber 410 is provided with an atomizing tank 411, which is used to temporarily store the liquid introduced into the first water storage chamber 110. The atomizing element 420 is used to atomize the liquid in the atomizing tank 411. The atomized gas can be naturally dispersed or driven by a fan 430 to be exported into the first water storage chamber 110.

[0044] It should be noted that the atomizing element 420 can convert liquid into atomized gas through the principle of ultrasonic vibration. When an electric current passes through the vibrator inside the atomizing element 420, it can generate high-frequency ultrasonic vibration, causing tiny ripples to form on the liquid surface, thereby breaking the surface tension of the liquid and dispersing the liquid into fine mist particles to form atomized gas.

[0045] The first water guiding component 500 is used to connect the second water storage chamber 210 and the atomizing tank 411, so as to guide the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411, or to return the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 to the second water storage chamber 210. The first water guiding component 500 includes a first water guiding channel 510 and a first water guiding pump 520. The second end of the first water guiding channel 510 is connected to the bottom of the atomizing tank 411, and the second end of the first water guiding channel 510 is located above the first end of the first water guiding channel 510. This allows the residual water in the atomizing tank 411 to gather at the bottom of the atomizing tank 411 and flow back into the second water storage chamber 210 under its own gravity when the fumigation function is finished and the first water guiding pump 520 is turned off. This prevents the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 from remaining for a long time and causing the water to smell bad, and ensures that the atomizing component 400 remains clean and hygienic.

[0046] It should be noted that the first water guiding channel 510 can be a channel formed by pipes or a channel formed by a water channel plate structure, etc., and there are no special limitations on this. See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure, as an example, the first water guiding channel 510 in this embodiment is a channel formed by a pipeline.

[0047] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first water pump 520 is a one-way pump. When the first water pump 520 is working, it can pump the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411. When the first water pump 520 stops working, the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 flows into the second water storage chamber 210 under the action of gravity through the first water channel 510 and the first water pump 520.

[0048] By setting the first water pump 520 as a one-way pump, the one-way pump remains on while the atomizing element 420 is working, continuously pumping liquid from the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411. Furthermore, when the atomizing element 420 stops working, the one-way pump can be switched off. Since the one-way pump does not act as a check valve for the liquid in the first water channel 510, the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 can naturally flow back to the second water storage chamber 210 under gravity. In other words, by setting the first water pump 520 as a one-way pump, the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 can naturally flow back to the second water storage chamber 210 after atomization, without being obstructed by the first water pump 520.

[0049] Specifically, a unidirectional pump can use a pump body with a non-checking structure, such as a centrifugal pump, so that liquid can flow through the pump body when it is closed.

[0050] See Figure 1 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the atomizing chamber 410 is provided with an overflow structure 412, and the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 can overflow to the second water storage chamber 210 through the overflow structure 412.

[0051] By providing an overflow structure 412 that connects to the second water storage chamber 210 on the atomizing tank 411, excess liquid can be returned to the second water storage chamber 210 through the overflow structure 412 when the liquid level in the atomizing tank 411 exceeds the lowest point of the overflow structure 412. At this time, the first water pump 520 continuously introduces the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411 without the need for frequent opening or closing.

[0052] Meanwhile, by controlling the height of the lowest point of the overflow structure 412, the volume of the atomizing tank 411 can be precisely controlled, ensuring that the liquid depth within the atomizing tank 411 is always within the optimal working range of the atomizing component 420. Specifically, when the liquid depth within the atomizing tank 411 is too large or too small, the atomizing component 420 cannot achieve its optimal atomization effect. For example, when the liquid depth within the atomizing tank 411 is too large, it will cause uneven atomization or reduced atomization efficiency by the atomizing component 420; if the liquid depth is too small, the atomizing component 420 will not function properly, resulting in poor atomization.

[0053] Furthermore, since the atomizing chamber 410 is equipped with an overflow structure 412, the first water pump 520 can be set as a simpler and lower-cost one-way pump without a check structure. The control method of the first water pump 520 can also be simplified, that is, the first water pump 520 only needs to work continuously or be turned off.

[0054] The overflow structure 412 can be implemented in various ways known in the prior art. For example, an overflow hole can be opened at a certain height on the side wall of the atomizing tank 411 as the overflow structure 412, or the top port of the atomizing tank 411 can be used directly as the overflow structure 412; there is no particular limitation on this. The overflow structure 412 can be connected to the second water storage chamber 210 through a pipe or channel, or the atomizing tank 411 can be directly located in the upper middle part of the second water storage chamber 210, and the liquid can flow directly out into the second water storage chamber 210 through the overflow structure 412.

[0055] See Figure 1 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the vertical distance between the atomizing element 420 and the lowest point of the overflow structure 412 is ( Figure 1 The thickness of H3 is 5mm to 50mm (preferably 25mm to 30mm).

[0056] By setting the vertical distance between the atomizing element 420 and the lowest point of the overflow structure 412 to 5mm to 50mm, the atomizing element 420 can always operate within the optimal water depth range, thereby improving the atomization effect.

[0057] Specifically, since the atomizing tank 411 is equipped with an overflow structure 412, when the first water pump 520 is working continuously, the liquid level in the atomizing tank 411 is always at the lowest point of the overflow structure 412. At this time, the vertical distance between the atomizing element 420 and the lowest point of the overflow structure 412 can always be maintained between 5mm and 50mm, so that the atomizing element 420 always works in the optimal water depth range.

[0058] As an example, the vertical spacing between the atomizing element 420 and the lowest point of the overflow structure 412 can be 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 25mm, 30mm or 50mm, etc.

[0059] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first water pump 520 is a bidirectional pump used to pump liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 into the atomizing tank 411 or to pump liquid in the atomizing tank 411 into the second water storage chamber 210.

[0060] By setting the first water pump 520 as a bidirectional pump, during atomization, the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 can be pumped into the atomizing tank 411, ensuring that the atomizing tank 411 always has a sufficient liquid volume for atomization. At the end of atomization, the residual liquid in the atomizing tank 411 can also be pumped into the second water storage chamber 210, preventing the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 from remaining for a long time and causing the water to smell bad, thus ensuring that the atomizing component 400 remains clean and hygienic.

[0061] Specifically, a bidirectional pump can be a diaphragm pump. The operating principle of a diaphragm pump as a bidirectional pump is based on the reciprocating motion of a diaphragm, which changes the volume of the pump chamber to achieve liquid intake and discharge. During operation, the movement of the diaphragm causes a pressure change on one side of the pump chamber. When the diaphragm moves to one side, liquid enters the pump chamber through the inlet valve; when the diaphragm moves in the opposite direction, the pressure inside the pump chamber increases, the inlet valve closes, the outlet valve opens, and the liquid is discharged.

[0062] See Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the atomizing component 400 further includes a liquid level sensor 460, which is disposed in the atomizing tank 411 and is used to detect the liquid level height in the atomizing tank 411; the liquid level sensor 460 is communicatively connected to the atomizing element 420 and the first water pump 520 to control the operation of the atomizing element 420 and the first water pump 520.

[0063] By installing a liquid level sensor 460 inside the atomizing tank 411, the liquid level height inside the atomizing tank 411 can be detected in real time, thereby determining the liquid volume inside the atomizing tank 411. Simultaneously, the liquid level sensor 460 is communicatively connected to the atomizing element 420 and the first water pump 520, enabling feedback adjustment of the atomizing element 420 and the first water pump 520. For example, when the amount of liquid in the atomizing tank 411 is less than a set range, the atomizing element 420 can be shut off to prevent it from burning dry and avoid damage. Alternatively, the operating frequency of the first water pump 520 can be controlled so that the amount of liquid in the atomizing tank 411 always meets the atomization requirements of the atomizing element 420. Or, when the atomizing element 420 stops atomizing, the first water pump 520 can be controlled to work to drain the liquid in the atomizing tank 411, preventing residual liquid in the atomizing tank 411 from causing an odor. After the liquid in the atomizing tank 411 is drained, the first water pump 520 can be stopped to prevent it from running dry.

[0064] It is understandable that the liquid level sensor 460 can communicate with the atomizing element 420 through the controller of the foot bath. After the liquid level sensor 460 transmits the liquid level data to the controller, the controller can adjust the operation of the atomizing element 420 and the first water pump 520 according to the liquid level data.

[0065] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the first water storage chamber 110 includes a lower limb accommodating area 111, and the atomizing component 400 further includes a steam outlet structure 440. The steam inlet of the steam outlet structure 440 is connected to the atomizing groove 411, and the steam outlet of the steam outlet structure 440 is connected to the first water storage chamber 110. The steam outlet structure 440 is disposed on the side wall of the atomizing chamber 400 facing away from the lower limb accommodating area 111.

[0066] By setting up a steam outlet structure 440 and placing it on the side wall of the atomizing chamber 400 opposite to the lower limb receiving area 111, steam from the atomizing tank 411 can be guided into the first water storage chamber 110. This allows users to enjoy steam treatment on their legs while taking a foot bath, thus enhancing the user experience. Simultaneously, the location of the steam outlet structure 440 on the side wall of the atomizing chamber 400 opposite to the lower limb receiving area 111 ensures that the steam outlet is far from the user's legs, allowing sufficient time for the steam to cool down and preventing high-temperature medicinal steam from directly affecting the user's legs.

[0067] The steam outlet structure 440 can be a hollow structure such as a steam outlet hole or a steam outlet groove, and there is no special limitation on it. For example, in this embodiment, the steam outlet structure 440 is a steam outlet hole.

[0068] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the atomizing component 400 further includes a fan 430, which drives the atomized gas through the steam outlet structure 440 into the first water storage chamber 110. The fan 430 is located above the atomizing tank 411.

[0069] By setting up the fan 430, the atomized gas can be driven to be discharged into the first water storage chamber 110. Positioning the fan 430 above the atomizing tank 411 allows the atomized gas to reach the fan 430 more effectively, preventing it from escaping to other unwanted areas and thus increasing the amount of atomized gas entering the first water storage chamber 110.

[0070] Specifically, since the liquid temperature in the second water storage chamber 210 is high, it is atomized into gas under the action of the atomizing element 420. Its density is low, so it can rise rapidly and reach the position of the fan 430, which makes it easy to guide the atomized gas into the first water storage chamber 110 through the fan 430.

[0071] The fan 430 is preferably a waterproof fan, which ensures its long-term stable operation and prevents short circuits or corrosion caused by atomized gas. The steam inlet of the steam outlet structure 440 is connected to the atomizing tank 411, and the steam outlet is connected to the first water storage chamber 110. The fan 430 can be installed using a fan 430 bracket.

[0072] In some embodiments, a gas channel for guiding the atomized gas can also be provided inside the barrel 100, which can guide all the atomized gas to the fan 430 and prevent it from escaping to other unwanted areas.

[0073] See Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the atomizing component 400 further includes a first temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the atomized gas, the first temperature sensor being disposed inside the barrel 100; the first temperature sensor is communicatively connected to the fan 430 to adjust the rotational speed of the fan 430; and / or, the first temperature sensor is communicatively connected to the heating element 310 to adjust the heating power of the heating element 310.

[0074] By setting a first temperature sensor, the temperature change of the atomized gas in the outlet area of ​​the steam outlet structure 440 can be monitored in real time, and the operating parameters of the fan 430 and / or the heating element 310 can be adjusted according to the actual temperature to improve the user experience. For example, when the first temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the outlet area of ​​the steam outlet structure 440 exceeds a preset range, the heating power of the heating element 310 and / or the speed of the fan 430 can be appropriately reduced; correspondingly, when the first temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the outlet area of ​​the steam outlet structure 440 is lower than the preset range, the heating power of the heating element 310 can be appropriately increased and / or the speed of the fan 430 can be appropriately reduced.

[0075] It should be noted that the foot bath is equipped with a controller (not shown in the figure). The first temperature sensor can be connected to the fan 430 and / or the heating element 310 through the controller. After the first temperature sensor transmits the temperature data to the controller, the controller can adjust the speed of the fan 430 and / or adjust the heating power of the heating element 310.

[0076] See Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the top of the first water storage chamber 110 is provided with a port, the steam outlet structure 440 is provided on the side wall of the heating chamber 200, and the lowest point of the port is located below the lowest point of the steam outlet structure 440.

[0077] By positioning the lowest point of the top port of the first water storage chamber 110 below the lowest point of the steam outlet structure 440, it can be ensured that when the liquid level in the first water storage chamber 110 is at its highest point, the liquid will not overflow from the first water storage chamber 110 through the steam outlet structure 440 into the heating chamber 200, thus preventing the foot bath liquid in the first water storage chamber 110 from contaminating the fumigation liquid in the heating chamber 200. Simultaneously, when the user pours out the water, the residual high-temperature liquid in the heating chamber 200 can flow out from the steam outlet structure 440, preventing it from flowing out from the face cover 140 and thus preventing scalding of the user.

[0078] See Figure 2 As shown, the lowest point of the top port of the first water storage chamber 110 can be referenced. Figure 2 As shown in H1, the lowest point of the steam outlet structure 440 can be referenced. Figure 2 As shown in H2.

[0079] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, it further includes: a second water guiding component 600, the second water guiding component 600 including a second water guiding channel 610 and a second water guiding pump 620, the second water guiding pump 620 being disposed in the second water guiding channel 610, the first end of the second water guiding channel 610 being connected to the first water storage chamber 110, and the second end of the second water guiding channel 610 being connected to the second water storage chamber 210.

[0080] By setting the second water guiding component 600, the second water guiding channel 610 in the second water guiding component 600 can connect the first water storage chamber 110 and the second water storage chamber 210, so that the medicine liquid in the first water storage chamber 110 and the second water storage chamber 210 can flow and mix with each other. At the same time, the second water guiding pump 620 can apply driving force to the liquid in the second water guiding channel 610, so that it flows in a preset direction.

[0081] For example, after the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 is heated to a set temperature, it can be introduced into the first water storage chamber 110 by the second water pump 620 to mix with water at a relatively lower temperature. Alternatively, the second water pump 620 can also introduce water from the first water storage chamber 110 into the second water storage chamber 210 for mixing. At this time, medicine (such as medicine packets or herbs) can be added to the second water storage chamber 210 of the heating chamber 200. The heating element 310 heats the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 to a higher temperature, which can fully decoct the herbs and extract their effective components. While the medicine is being decocted, the liquid can be introduced into the first water storage chamber 110 to mix with water at a relatively lower temperature, achieving the function of decoction and foot bath simultaneously. Alternatively, the liquid can be introduced into the first water storage chamber 110 all at once after the medicine has been decocted, achieving the function of foot bath after decoction.

[0082] Similarly, the second water guiding channel 610 can be a channel formed by a pipe or a channel formed by a water channel plate structure, etc., without special limitations. See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, as an example, the second water guiding channel 610 in this embodiment is a channel formed by a pipeline.

[0083] See Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, a mixing chamber 170 is formed inside the barrel 100, the mixing chamber 170 is connected to the first water storage chamber 110, and the second water storage chamber 210 is connected to the first water storage chamber 110 through the mixing chamber 170.

[0084] By setting up a mixing chamber 170, the liquid in the second water storage chamber 210 can be heated to a higher temperature and then introduced into the mixing chamber 170 to mix with low-temperature water to cool it down before entering the first water storage chamber 110, which can prevent scalding of the human body.

[0085] Specifically, the mixing chamber 170 is located in a part of the tub 100 that does not come into contact with the human body, such as the bottom or side area of ​​the tub 100, or an area covered by components within the tub 100; there are no special limitations on this. As an example, in this embodiment, a massage disc 180 is provided at the bottom of the first water storage chamber 110, and the mixing chamber 170 is located below the massage disc 180. During the foot bath, the user's feet come into contact with the massage disc 180, but the mixed water below the massage disc 180 will not directly contact the feet, thus preventing scalding.

[0086] The mixing chamber 170 and the first water storage chamber 110 can be connected by pipes, channels or water passage structures. For example, a corresponding hole (water passage structure) can be provided on the massage plate 180 to connect the mixing chamber 170 and the first water storage chamber 110.

[0087] In some embodiments, an anti-scalding grille can also be provided at the outlet of the second water storage chamber 210. The inner side of the anti-scalding grille serves as the mixing chamber 170, which can also prevent the feet from directly contacting the hot water.

[0088] See Figure 7 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the foot bath also includes a filter chamber 700. At least a portion of the filter chamber 700 is disposed within the heating chamber 200 and is detachably connected to the heating chamber 200. A filter cavity 710 is formed within the filter chamber 700, and a filter structure 720 is provided at the bottom of the filter cavity 710. The filter cavity 710 is connected to the second water storage cavity 210 through the filter structure 720.

[0089] By setting up a filter chamber 700 and configuring it to be detachably connected to the heating chamber 200, the medicine can be directly placed into the filter chamber 700 during use. During the decoction process, solid impurities can be retained in the filter chamber 710 by the filter structure 720 and will not enter the second water storage chamber 210, thus preventing blockage of the pipes or components connected to the second water storage chamber 210. Furthermore, the filter chamber 700 can be periodically removed from the heating chamber 200 for cleaning (e.g., after each decoction), ensuring the foot bath is in optimal hygienic condition.

[0090] The filter structure 720 can employ structures such as filter holes or filter screens. For example, when the filter structure 720 is a filter hole, holes can be directly made at a lower position (such as the bottom or a side wall near the bottom) of the filter chamber 700. The aperture of the filter hole can be designed according to the particle size of the solid impurities produced by the medicinal materials or medicine pack. When the filter structure 720 is a filter screen, an opening can be first set at a lower position of the filter chamber 700, and the filter screen can be fixed at the opening (such as by clipping or fixing with threaded connectors). Similarly, the aperture of the filter screen can be designed according to the particle size of the solid impurities produced by the medicinal materials or medicine pack.

[0091] There are several ways to detachably connect the filter chamber 700 and the heating chamber 200. For example, an outer edge can be provided at the top port of the filter chamber 700, and the outer edge can be directly overlapped with the port of the heating chamber 200; or, a snap-fit ​​structure (such as a slot) can be provided on the side wall of the heating chamber 200, and a matching snap-fit ​​structure (such as a snap-fit ​​part) can be provided at the corresponding position on the side wall of the filter chamber 700, so that the two can be snap-fitted together.

[0092] See Figure 1 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the foot bath further includes: a second temperature sensor 800, wherein at least one of the first water storage chamber 110, the second water storage chamber 210 and the mixing chamber 170 is provided with the second temperature sensor 800; the second temperature sensor 800 is communicatively connected to the second water pump 620 to adjust the water flow rate of the second water channel 610, and / or the second temperature sensor 800 is communicatively connected to the heating element 310 to adjust the heating power of the heating element 310.

[0093] By installing a temperature sensor in at least one of the first water storage chamber 110, the second water storage chamber 210, and the mixing chamber 170, the liquid temperature changes in the first water storage chamber 110 and / or the second water storage chamber 210 and / or the mixing chamber 170 can be monitored in real time. The power of the second water pump 620 is adjusted based on temperature change feedback to control the amount of high-temperature medicinal liquid entering the mixing chamber 170, thereby keeping the temperature of the diluted medicinal liquid entering the first water storage chamber 110 from the mixing chamber 170 within a suitable range to prevent scalding. It should be noted that the foot bath is equipped with a controller (not shown in the figure). The second temperature sensor 800 is communicatively connected to the second water pump 620 through the controller. After the second temperature sensor 800 transmits temperature data to the controller, the controller can adjust the opening degree of the second water pump 620.

[0094] For example, if a second temperature sensor 800 is installed in the mixing chamber 170, when the temperature in the mixing chamber 170 is higher than a preset range, the second temperature sensor 800 will detect the temperature change and feed the signal back to the second water pump 620. At this time, the second water pump 620 will automatically adjust its operating power to slow down the flow rate of the high-temperature liquid entering the mixing chamber 170 until the temperature drops to a safe range. Correspondingly, when the temperature in the mixing chamber 170 is low, the sensor will instruct the control valve to increase the flow rate of the liquid to ensure that the water temperature in the mixing chamber 170 is maintained within a suitable range. The same principle applies when the second temperature sensor 800 is installed in the first water storage chamber 110 and the second water storage chamber 210, and will not be described in detail here.

[0095] Similarly, the first temperature sensor can be connected to the second water pump 620 and / or the heating element 310 via the controller. After the first temperature sensor transmits the temperature data to the controller, the controller can adjust the operating power of the second water pump 620 and / or adjust the heating power of the heating element 310.

[0096] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
