Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of foot bath technology, specifically to a foot bath pipe sterilization structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, foot bath devices typically use UVC ultraviolet lamps for sterilization. Their main structural feature is a through-hole between the circuit board compartment and the foot bath compartment, with a UVC ultraviolet lamp board positioned above the through-hole. A quartz glass window and a sealing ring separate the lamp board from the circuit board compartment. The UVC lamp board is connected to the control board via a power cord. The advantages of this design are its simple structure, easy assembly, and low cost. However, its disadvantage is that UVC ultraviolet light is open-type and can cause harm to the human body when exposed. Therefore, it is necessary to design that foot bathing and sterilization cannot be used simultaneously; the sterilization lamp should not activate when the device is in use. This is detrimental to the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a foot bath pipe sterilization structure that solves the defect that foot bath and sterilization cannot be used at the same time, thereby improving the consumer's user experience.

[0005] Furthermore, the sterilization structure includes a UVC ultraviolet lamp plate disposed inside the circuit board compartment and a T-shaped pipe disposed below the circuit board compartment corresponding to the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate. The bottom of the T-shaped pipe is connected to the water supply pipe through a stop, and the top of the T-shaped pipe is connected to the circuit board compartment through a stop and covers the outside of the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the circuit board compartment is provided with a transparent quartz glass material at the bottom corresponding to the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the circuit board compartment is provided with a connecting pipe outside the quartz glass for connecting with the tee pipe through a stop.

[0009] Furthermore, the material of the tee tube includes, but is not limited to, single material or composite material of plastic, stainless steel, and aluminum alloy.

[0010] Furthermore, the circuit board compartment is equipped with a control circuit board for controlling the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention solves the defects of the prior art by setting a sterilization structure in the circuit board compartment, and the sterilization structure is used to sterilize the water in the water supply pipe in the circulating water pipe.

[0016] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model discloses a foot bath pipe sterilization structure. The foot bath 1 includes a base 11, a circulating water pipe 12 disposed in the base 11, a foot bath shell 13 disposed on the base 11, and a circuit board compartment 14 disposed on the top of the foot bath shell 13. The circulating water pipe 12 includes a water pump 122 disposed in the base 11 with its inlet connected to the foot bath shell 13 via an inlet pipe 121, and an outlet pipe 123 disposed at the outlet of the water pump 122 and connected to the foot bath shell 13. The foot bath shell 13 is provided with a water delivery pipe 15 for communicating with the inlet pipe 121. The sterilization structure 2 is disposed in the circuit board compartment 14 for sterilizing the water in the water delivery pipe 15.

[0018] When in use, water for foot bath is poured into the foot bath shell 13. The water is pumped out of the foot bath shell 13 by the water pump 122 and the water inlet pipe 121, and sent back into the foot bath shell 13 through the water outlet pipe 123 into the water supply pipe 15. At this time, the water in the water supply pipe 15 is sterilized by the sterilization structure 2. The sterilization structure 2 corresponds to the water supply pipe 15, so it will not shine on the user. The sterilization operation of the foot bath water can be achieved during the foot bath.

[0019] In one embodiment, the sterilization structure 2 includes a UVC ultraviolet lamp plate 21 disposed within the circuit board compartment 14 and a T-shaped pipe 22 disposed below the circuit board compartment 14 corresponding to the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate 21. The bottom of the T-shaped pipe 22 is connected to the water supply pipe 15 through a stop, and the top of the T-shaped pipe 22 is connected to the circuit board compartment 14 through a stop and covers the outside of the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate 21. This design allows for sterilization of the water inside the water supply pipe 15 by using the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate 21. The T-shaped pipe 22, covering the outside of the UVC ultraviolet lamp plate 21, prevents ultraviolet radiation from irradiating external users, solving the problems existing in the prior art. Furthermore, the design of the T-shaped pipe 22 facilitates the return of water from the water supply pipe 15 to the foot bath shell 13.

[0020] Furthermore, a transparent quartz glass 23 is provided at the bottom of the circuit board compartment 14 corresponding to the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21. This design, by providing the quartz glass 23 at the bottom of the circuit board compartment 14 corresponding to the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21, prevents water from flowing into the circuit board compartment 14 during the operation of the circulating water pipe 12. Additionally, the transparent quartz glass 23 facilitates the sterilization of the water inside the water supply pipe 15 by the ultraviolet rays generated by the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21.

[0021] Preferably, the circuit board compartment 14 has a through hole 141 at the bottom of the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21, and the quartz glass 23 is disposed above the through hole 141 with a sealing ring 142 between it and the through hole 141. This design allows the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21 to be used for irradiation and sterilization by providing the through hole 141, while the sealing ring 142 enhances the seal between the quartz glass 23 and the through hole 141, preventing water from the bottom from entering the circuit board compartment 14.

[0022] Furthermore, a connecting pipe 24 for connecting to the tee pipe 22 via a stop is provided at the bottom of the circuit board compartment 14 outside the quartz glass 23. This design facilitates the stop connection with the tee pipe 22 by providing the connecting pipe 24, and by providing the connecting pipe 24 at the bottom of the circuit board compartment 14, the quartz glass 23 can be protected from ultraviolet radiation.

[0023] In one embodiment, another outlet of the tee pipe 22 is provided with a spray head 25 for spraying via a stop. This design provides a spraying function, facilitating the use of the foot bath 1.

[0024] In one embodiment, the material of the tee pipe 22 includes, but is not limited to, single or composite materials such as plastic, stainless steel, and aluminum alloy. This design ensures the strength and sealing performance of the tee pipe 22.

[0025] In one embodiment, the circuit board compartment 14 is provided with a control circuit board 16 for controlling the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21. This design, by providing the control circuit board 16, facilitates the control of the foot bath 1 or the UVC ultraviolet lamp panel 21 as needed, enabling sterilization during the foot bath process, and achieving high sterilization efficiency during water circulation.

[0026] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
