[0020] This invention proposes a multifunctional therapeutic pad based on infrared photonic crystal heating technology.

[0021] like Figs. 1 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the multifunctional therapeutic pad based on infrared photonic crystal heating technology includes a flexible outer cover 100, a flexible infrared radiation heating element 200, and a controller 300. The flexible outer cover 100 has an accommodating cavity with an opening and a zipper at the opening. The flexible infrared radiation heating element 200 is embedded in the accommodating cavity. The flexible infrared radiation heating element 200 includes a flexible substrate 201, a reflective coating 202, and a photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating 203. The reflective coating 202 is disposed on the lower end wall of the flexible substrate 201. The injection-molded heat coating 203 is disposed on the upper wall of the flexible substrate 201. The controller 300 is electrically connected to the flexible infrared radiation heating sheet 200 via a cable. The controller 300 contains a main control board (not shown), which is equipped with an infrared radiation driving circuit. The infrared radiation driving circuit is electrically connected to the photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating 203. The photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating 203 excites and radiates far-infrared light. The upper end of the controller 300 is equipped with a temperature adjustment button 301. One end of the controller 300 is equipped with a power cord 302, and the end of the power cord 302 is equipped with a first power plug 303.

[0022] Specifically, it also includes a second power plug 400, which is electrically connected to the flexible infrared radiation heating element 200 via a cable. The other end of the controller 300 is provided with a socket 304, and the second power plug 400 is detachably inserted into the socket 304. The second power plug 400 is electrically connected to the socket 304. The plug-in plug and socket design makes it more convenient and faster to plug and unplug the controller.

[0023] Specifically, the flexible outer cover 100 includes a natural cotton layer 101 and a knitted cotton fabric layer 102. The natural cotton layer 101 is located at the lower end of the knitted cotton fabric layer 102. The knitted cotton fabric is soft and delicate to the touch, comfortable against the skin, and improves comfort. The natural cotton layer provides good warmth retention.

[0024] Specifically, it also includes a non-woven fabric layer 103, which is disposed on the lower end wall of the knitted cotton fabric layer 102 to further provide good warmth retention.

[0025] Specifically, it also includes moxa wool pads (not shown), which are detachably embedded in the cavity and located at the upper end of the flexible infrared radiation heating pad 200. Traditional moxibustion relies on burning moxa wool to generate heat and medicinal properties, while the moxa wool pad of this invention releases heat through the flexible infrared radiation heating pad, activating the components of moxa through high temperature to achieve a heat effect that simulates moxibustion, but without the need for an open flame, reducing the risk of burns. Combined with far-infrared rays penetrating the skin, it promotes blood circulation and relieves problems such as muscle soreness and joint pain, which can further enhance the therapeutic effect and increase the functionality of the therapeutic pad.

[0026] Specifically, the far-infrared light emitted by the photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating 203 has a wavelength range of 8.0μm to 14μm, which is consistent with the optimal wavelength range for human biological effects. It can generate heat more quickly and evenly, and the energy of infrared radiation is concentrated and stable, which significantly improves the heating effect, significantly improves the accuracy and energy utilization of thermotherapy, and can effectively improve the physiotherapy effect.

[0027] Specifically, it also includes an LCD screen (not shown) and a temperature sensor (not shown). The LCD screen is embedded in the upper wall of the controller 300, and the temperature sensor is embedded in the flexible infrared radiation heating element 200. The controller 300 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, which can detect the temperature of the flexible infrared radiation heating element in real time and display the temperature value in real time through the LCD screen, making it more intuitive and convenient.

[0028] Specifically, it also includes a power indicator light (not shown), which is embedded in the upper wall of the controller 300 and can intuitively display the working status of the controller.

[0029] Specifically, the mechanism by which this invention excites far-infrared light radiation through a photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating is as follows: A photonic crystal is a material with a periodic refractive index or dielectric constant. The periodic structure of the photonic crystal can interact with the plasmon resonance effect on the surface of a metal thin film, thereby enhancing light of a specific wavelength on the surface. By adjusting the structural parameters of the photonic crystal, the resonance frequency can be adjusted, thereby exciting the radiation of infrared light. Furthermore, the emitted infrared band can be flexibly controlled by changing the lattice size of the photonic crystal. The photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating, through a three-dimensional photonic crystal structure design, introduces a photonic bandgap and is designed to achieve efficient heating of specific wavelengths based on the infrared absorption peaks of different materials. It utilizes the infrared radiation effect of the photonic crystal to achieve high efficiency, low energy consumption, and uniform heating.

[0030] Specifically, the working principle of this utility model is as follows: A flexible outer casing provides a cavity with an opening and a zipper. A flexible infrared radiating heating element is embedded within this cavity. The flexible infrared radiating heating element includes a flexible substrate, a reflective coating, and a photonic crystal infrared radiating heating coating. The reflective coating is located on the lower wall of the flexible substrate, and the photonic crystal infrared radiating heating coating is located on the upper wall. A main control board within the controller contains an infrared radiation driving circuit electrically connected to the flexible infrared radiating heating element. The photonic crystal infrared radiating heating coating excites and radiates far-infrared light. A temperature adjustment button is located at the top of the controller. One end of the controller... Equipped with a power cord and a primary power plug, this device utilizes a photonic crystal infrared radiation heating coating to efficiently and precisely emit far-infrared rays (8-14 micrometers) within the optimal wavelength range for human biological effects. This allows for faster and more even heat generation, resolving the uneven heating issue common with electric blankets. The concentrated and stable energy of the infrared radiation significantly enhances the heating effect, improving the precision and energy utilization of heat therapy while reducing energy consumption. The deep and efficient far-infrared heat therapy effectively improves blood circulation, relieves muscle fatigue, activates cells to promote metabolism, clears meridians, dispels wind and dampness, relieves pain and cold, and enhances the body's disease resistance. It is safe, convenient, and has a long-lasting effect, promoting blood circulation in recovering patients and those who have been bedridden for extended periods. It can be used as a cover or a mat, making it suitable for various scenarios.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
