Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of foot bath technology, and in particular to a foot bath with a detachable water outlet component. Background Technology
[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of health awareness, foot baths, as a convenient and effective health regimen, are increasingly favored by consumers. Foot bath devices, as key equipment for realizing the functions of foot baths, primarily function to promote blood circulation, relieve fatigue, and improve sleep through soaking, massaging, and water circulation of the feet. Currently, foot bath devices on the market are usually equipped with a water circulation system, which keeps the water in the foot bath cavity flowing, enhancing the foot bath experience. The water circulation system generally includes a water generator for drawing water out and returning it to the foot bath cavity, circulation pipes for transporting water, and a water outlet component for returning water to the foot bath cavity. As the terminal component where the water returns to the foot bath cavity, the structure and performance of the water outlet component directly affect the distribution of water flow, the impact force, and the comfort of the foot bath. In daily use, the water outlet component is in direct contact with water, and dirt, impurities, dead skin, and residues of conditioning ingredients added during the foot bath process can easily adhere to the surface and interior of the water outlet component. Meanwhile, as the circulating water flows through the water outlet components, some impurities are carried into the gaps and channels of the components. Over time, this can lead to blockages and bacterial growth, affecting not only the water flow and hygiene of the foot bath but also potentially shortening its lifespan. Therefore, regular cleaning and maintenance of the water outlet components are crucial for ensuring the normal use and hygiene safety of the foot bath.
[0003] In existing foot baths, the water outlet component is mostly fixedly connected to the main body. This fixed installation structure has several drawbacks in practical use. First, it is difficult to clean. Since the water outlet component cannot be removed from the main body, users can only wipe or rinse it inside the foot bath cavity. However, the internal channels, gaps, and dead corners where it connects to the main body are difficult to clean thoroughly, allowing dirt and bacteria to accumulate. Second, maintenance and replacement are inconvenient. When the water outlet component is damaged (such as deformed outlet or blocked internal channels), because it is fixedly connected to the main body, it cannot be replaced separately. Users often need to replace the entire foot bath or undergo complex repairs, which not only increases the user's operating costs but also wastes resources. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a foot bath with a detachable water outlet component.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A foot bath device with a detachable water outlet component includes a main body and a water circulation system. A foot bath cavity is formed within the main body, and the water circulation system includes: The water outlet component, the water flow generator, and the circulation pipe for connecting the water outlet component and the water flow generator, wherein the water flow generator is configured to draw water out of the foot bath cavity and return it to the foot bath cavity via the water outlet component; The body has a connecting structure adapted to the water outlet component, the connecting structure having a connecting feature that allows the water outlet component to be detachably assembled to the body, and the water outlet component is adapted to be detachably engaged with the connecting structure.
[0006] Furthermore, the combined structure forms an installation cavity with an opening through which the water outlet component can be slidably inserted or removed for replacement.
[0007] Furthermore, the combined structure includes a limiting part for restricting the sliding of the water outlet component, and the water outlet component abuts against the limiting part for limiting.
[0008] Furthermore, the circulation pipeline is provided with a docking part, and the water outlet component has a mating interface that can be detachably and sealed to the docking part.
[0009] Furthermore, the mating portion has a sealing opening, and the mating interface is sealed by a sealing element abutting against the sealing opening.
[0010] Furthermore, the water outlet component includes a base and a mounting portion detachably attached to the top of the base, the interface being disposed on the mounting portion.
[0011] Furthermore, the water outlet component also includes a water filter component, which is detachably positioned between the base and the mounting portion.
[0012] Furthermore, the water outlet component has a release chamber suitable for releasing functional materials.
[0013] Furthermore, the release chamber is disposed at the bottom of the water filtration component.
[0014] Furthermore, the interface is configured on the water filtration component.
[0015] Due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. The main body of this utility model has a connecting structure, and the water outlet component can be detachably connected to the connecting structure. This design allows users to easily detach the water outlet component from the foot bath body for comprehensive and thorough cleaning. In daily use, scale, stains, and other impurities easily accumulate inside the foot bath. The detachable water outlet component allows users to deeply clean all parts, effectively removing hidden dirt and ensuring the hygiene of the foot bath, providing users with a healthier and more comfortable foot bath experience. Furthermore, because the water outlet component is detachable, when it becomes damaged or ages, users do not need to replace the entire foot bath; only the water outlet component needs to be replaced. This not only reduces operating costs but also significantly saves maintenance time and effort.
[0016] 2. The water outlet component of this utility model can also be equipped with a detachable water filter component. The water outlet component is cleverly detachably sleeved onto the outside of the water filter component, and the water filter component is detachably connected to the circulation pipeline. In this way, when the user needs to change the functional material, they only need to disassemble the water outlet component from the connection point, and the water filter component will be removed simultaneously. At this time, the inside of the water filter component can be cleaned and the filter element replaced. When installing new functional materials, the water outlet component with the functional materials installed is reinstalled onto the connection point, and the water filter component is installed simultaneously. This design greatly simplifies the operation process, eliminating the need for additional water filter component processing steps, significantly improving the ease of use of the foot bath, and allowing users to enjoy the foot bath process more easily and smoothly.

[0031] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-8This utility model discloses a foot bath with a detachable water outlet component, mainly composed of a body 100 and a water circulation system 200. The body 100 is the basic frame of the foot bath, forming a foot bath cavity 110 inside to accommodate the feet and foot bath water. The shape of the foot bath cavity 110 conforms to the physiological structure of the human foot, and the bottom is provided with multiple massage protrusions of different shapes and heights, which can massage and stimulate acupoints on the soles of the feet during the foot bath, enhancing the comfort and health benefits. The water circulation system 200 is the core part for realizing the circulation of foot bath water, including a water outlet component 210, a water flow generator, and a circulation pipe 220. The water flow generator is a silent water pump, and its power is set according to the capacity of the foot bath. The water outlet end of the water flow generator is connected to the circulation pipe 220. One end of the circulation pipe 220 is connected to the water flow generator, and the other end extends to the connecting structure 120 on the body 100, forming a docking part 130 at the end. The water generator draws water from the foot bath cavity 110, which is then transported to the water outlet component 210 via the circulation pipe 220, and finally returned to the foot bath cavity 110, forming a complete water cycle. The connecting structure 120 on the main body 100 is a key component enabling the detachable installation of the water outlet component 210. It is adapted to the water outlet component 210, and through specific connecting features, the water outlet component 210 can be securely and detachably assembled onto the main body 100, allowing users to easily replace water outlet components 210 with different functions as needed. The connecting structure 120 has an installation cavity 121, which is the space for accommodating and installing the water outlet component 210. The installation cavity 121 has an opening facing the inside of the foot bath cavity 110, the size and shape of which match the cross-section of the water outlet component 210, ensuring that the water outlet component 210 can be smoothly inserted or removed through the opening. The installation cavity 121 contains a sliding groove 1211 and a through groove 1212. The groove portion 1211 extends along the depth direction of the mounting cavity 121, forming a smooth guide surface. The width of the groove portion 1211 is adapted to the sliding arm 214 on the water outlet component 210. The through-groove portion 1212 is located above the groove portion 1211, and its length is consistent with the depth of the mounting cavity 121. When the water outlet component 210 slides into the groove portion 1211 via the sliding arm 214, the interface 310 can pass through the through-groove portion 1212 and smoothly connect with the docking portion 130 of the circulation pipe 220, avoiding obstruction of the movement of the interface 310 by the inner wall of the mounting cavity 121. The water outlet component 210 is installed and disassembled with the mounting cavity 121 by sliding. Sliding arms 214 extend outward from both sides of the base 211 of the water outlet component 210. When installing the water outlet component 210, the user simply aligns the sliding arms 214 with the inlet of the groove 1211 and pushes the water outlet component 210 into the mounting cavity 121 along the groove 1211. During this pushing process, the sliding arms 214 slide along the guide surface of the groove 1211. Due to the small gap and smooth surface of the two parts, the pushing process is smooth and effortless. After the water outlet component 210 is fully inserted into the mounting cavity 121, the end of the sliding arm 214 abuts against the stop 122 at the bottom of the mounting cavity 121, completing the installation. When disassembling the water outlet component 210, the user simply grasps the exposed part of the water outlet component 210 and pulls it outward. The sliding arms 214 will then slide along the groove 1211 and be pulled out from the opening of the mounting cavity 121, achieving quick disassembly. To further improve the smoothness of sliding, a small amount of food-grade grease can be applied to the contact surface between the sliding arm 214 and the groove 1211 to reduce wear and friction resistance after long-term use. Specifically, the limiting part on the structure 120 is the stop 122 at the bottom of the mounting cavity 121. When the water outlet component 210 slides along the groove 1211 to the bottom of the mounting cavity 121, the end of the base 211 abuts against the stop 122. At this time, the water outlet component 210 cannot continue to slide into the mounting cavity 121, thus limiting the sliding stroke of the water outlet component 210 and preventing over-insertion that could lead to improper docking between the interface 310 and the docking part 130, ensuring the accuracy of the docking. Simultaneously, to prevent the water outlet component 210 from accidentally sliding out of the mounting cavity 121 due to water flow impact during the operation of the foot bath, a magnet assembly 400 is provided between the sliding arm 214 and the stop 122. When the water outlet component 210 is installed in place and the base 211 abuts against the stop part 122, the magnet assembly 400 is snapped into the slot under magnetic attraction, thereby further fixing the water outlet component 210. The connecting portion 130 at the end of the circulation pipe 220 is a cylindrical protrusion with a sealing port 221 at its end. In this embodiment, the circulation pipe includes a connecting pipe 500, and the sealing port 221 is formed at the water outlet end of the connecting pipe 500. The water outlet component 210 is provided with a connecting interface 310. When the water outlet component 210 is installed in place, both the sealing port 221 and the connecting interface 310 are sealed and abutted against the sealing member 600, achieving a fixed connection between the two. During the sealing and fixing process, the sealing member 600 is squeezed by the end of the sealing port, undergoes elastic deformation, and tightly fits against the outer peripheral surface of the sealing port 221 and the bottom and inner wall of the connecting interface 310, achieving a sealing effect and preventing water leakage at the connection point. When the mating part 130 mates with the mating interface 310, the sealing element 600 is compressed between the sealing port 221 and the bottom of the mating interface 310. Due to the elastic properties of silicone, the sealing element 600 generates sufficient elastic force to ensure a tight fit between itself and the contact surfaces of the sealing port 221 and the mating interface 310, thereby blocking the leakage path of water flow. This sealing method is a floating seal. When the water outlet component 210 undergoes slight displacement due to manufacturing errors, assembly errors, or slight vibrations during installation or use, the sealing element 600 can compensate through its own elastic deformation, always maintaining a tight fit with the contact surface and ensuring that the sealing effect is not affected.
[0033] Please see Figure 9 In the first embodiment, the water outlet component 210 includes a base 211 and a mounting portion 212. A water outlet 213 is formed between the base 211 and the mounting portion 212, and the water outlet 213 extends outward from the sliding arm 214. The water outlet 213 includes a lower guide portion 2131 and an upper water-blocking portion 2132. The guide portion 2131 is an inclined arc-shaped plate, integrally formed with the base 211, and has a certain inclination angle. It guides the water flowing from the water filter component 300 to the central area of the foot bath cavity 110, i.e., the foot placement position, so that the water flow can directly impact the foot, enhancing the massage effect. The surface of the guide portion 2131 is smooth, reducing water flow resistance and ensuring smooth water flow. The water-blocking portion 2132 is an arc-shaped baffle adapted to the guide portion 2131, disposed on the mounting portion 212, and integrally formed with the mounting portion 212. The water-blocking part 2132 is located above the flow guide part 2131, forming a water flow channel between them. The arc shape of the water-blocking part 2132 matches the arc shape of the flow guide part 2131, effectively preventing water from splashing upwards and avoiding water splashing out of the foot bath chamber 110 during water circulation, thus keeping the environment around the foot bath clean. The mounting part 212 is provided with a connection interface 310 configured on the water filter component 300. The water outlet component 210 is provided with a release chamber 221, which is used to place and release functional materials such as foot bath salts, essential oils, and traditional Chinese medicine packs to enhance the health benefits of the foot bath. Please see Figure 1In another embodiment, the water outlet component 210 further includes a water filter component 300, which is detachably positioned between the base 211 and the mounting portion 212. In this embodiment, the release chamber 221 is disposed at the bottom of the water filter component 300. When water flows through the water filter component 300, some water seeps into the release chamber 221, comes into contact with the functional material and dissolves or carries its effective components. Then, it flows out through the mesh of the water filter component 300 and enters the foot bath chamber 110 through the outlet 213, so that the functional material is evenly distributed in the foot bath water and fully exerts its effect. In this embodiment, the interface 310 is disposed on the water filter component 300, located at the top of the water filter component 300, and is integrally formed with the water filter component 300. The interface 310 cooperates with the docking portion 130 of the circulation pipe 220, which is the channel for water to enter the water filter component 300. When the water outlet component 210 is installed in place, the interface 310 and the docking part 130 are sealed together. The water flow from the circulation pipeline 220 enters the interface 310 through the docking part 130, and then flows into the water filter component 300. After filtration and the action of functional materials, it flows out from the mesh of the water filter component 300 and then returns to the foot bath cavity 110 through the water outlet 213. The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
