[0025] The middle part of the heel pad 10 is the padding area 11. The heel pad 10 has foot side panels 12 formed on both sides of the front end of the padding area 11. One end of the instep band 30 is integrally connected to one of the foot side panels 12, and the other end of the instep band 30 is detachably connected to the other foot side panel 12.

[0026] The instep band 30 includes an instep arm 31 integrally connected to the end of the foot side band 12 and an elastic strap 32 connected to the end of the instep arm 31. A conductive sheet 33 is provided on the outer surface of the instep arm 31. The conductive sheet 33 is provided with a plurality of conductive contacts 331.

[0027] The heel and instep support plate 20 is arranged along the rear edge of the foot pad area 11. The two sides of the heel and instep support plate 20 are connected to the rear edge of the two foot side panels 12, and the heel and instep support plate 20, the foot pad area 11 and the two foot side panels 12 form a receiving cavity 101 for accommodating the heel.

[0028] The foot pad area 11 is provided with a heating element (not shown), a knitted cotton layer (not shown), and a cushioning silicone pad (not shown) from top to bottom. Several conductive TPU films 14 are provided on the top surface of the foot pad area 11 and the inner surface of the foot side panels 12 on both sides. Several conductive contacts 331 are electrically connected to the heating element and the conductive TPU films 14.

[0029] The controller 40 has a power supply (not shown) and a control board (not shown) inside, and an operating surface on its outer surface. The controller 40 has a magnetic contact 41 on its bottom surface corresponding to each conductive contact 331, so that the controller 40 can be detachably installed on the outer surface of the foot arm 31. In this embodiment, it is a magnetic type, where the magnetic contact 41 is magnetically attracted to the corresponding conductive contact 331. The power supply provides energy to the heating element and the conductive TPU film 14, and the control board controls the functional operation of the heating element and the conductive TPU film 14 to realize the hot compress and / or electrical stimulation massage of the sole of the foot.

[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there are two conductive TPU films 14, which are arranged side by side in the receiving cavity 101. Each conductive TPU film 14 has a first conductive segment 141 extending from the front end of the top of the foot pad area 11 to the rear end, and a second conductive segment 142 extending from the foot pad area 11 to the adjacent foot side panel 12.
