[Figure 6]FIG. 2 is a structural schematic diagram of an output surface of an energy output structure according to some embodiments of the present application; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] Hereinafter, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is clear that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor according to the embodiments of the present application fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0010] In the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, it may be a direct connection, it may be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it may be an internal communication between two elements, it may be a communication connection, or it may be an electrical connection. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above term in the present application according to the specific situation.

[0011] 1 and 2, Fig. 1 is a structural exploded schematic diagram of a liquid ejection structure and an energy output structure according to an embodiment of the present application, and Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram taken along the line AA in Fig. 1.

[0012] As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, in some embodiments, the liquid ejection structure 1 includes a liquid storage member 10, a base 20, and a first connection member 30. The liquid storage member 10 is used to store liquid and release the liquid when pressed. The base 20 is used to accommodate the liquid storage member 10, and is provided to surround one energy output structure 40, and energy output by the energy output structure 40 is transmitted to the skin through the liquid storage member 10. The first connection member 30 is provided on the side of the base 20 away from the liquid storage member 10 or is provided within the base 20, and the first connection member 30 detachably connects the base 20 and the energy output structure 40.

[0013] In the present application, the liquid storage member 10 of the liquid ejection structure 1 stores a liquid, which may be a beauty serum. When the beauty device is used, the liquid storage member 10 is pressed by the force generated between the beauty device and the skin, causing the liquid storage member 10 to release the beauty serum. Since the energy output by the energy output structure 40 can be transmitted to the skin via the liquid storage member 10, the beauty device outputs energy and the beauty serum can be applied to the skin by the liquid ejection structure 1, making skin care for the user easier and quicker.

[0014] Wherein, the energy output structure 40 can be used to output electric energy. For example, the energy output structure 40 can be used to output microcurrent. When the energy output structure 40 outputs electric energy, the energy output by the energy output structure 40 can be transmitted to the skin via the liquid storage member 10, and the ions in the liquid stored in the liquid storage member 10 can improve the conductivity of the liquid storage member 10, so that the energy output by the energy output structure 40 can be transmitted to the skin via the liquid storage member 10.

[0015] The liquid stored in the liquid storage member 10 may be, but is not limited to, liquid gel, liquid water, liquid emulsion, or foam.

[0016] In some embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 is a sponge, the material of which includes at least one of polyurethane sponge, PVC sponge, latex sponge, shape memory sponge (Viscoelastic foam), polystyrene sponge and natural rubber sponge.

[0017] The sponge is absorbent and can be used to store liquid, and its interior is porous with many fine gaps and tubes, so that when pressed, it can release liquid more uniformly than a liquid storage member with only one or a few liquid discharge holes. In addition, the sponge is soft and can adapt to different surface shapes, so that it can adhere better to the skin. The pore size of the sponge can be adaptively designed according to the actual situation.

[0018] In some embodiments, the thickness of the liquid storage member 10 is between 0.1 and 5 mm. Preferably, the thickness of the liquid storage member is between 0.5 and 3 mm.

[0019] When the thickness of the liquid storage member 10 is 0.1 to 5 mm, the amount of stored liquid is suitable for completing one facial care session. When the thickness of the liquid storage member is 0.5 to 3 mm, the amount of stored liquid is more suitable for completing one facial care session.

[0020] In some other embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 is a mask fabric, which has water absorption properties and can store liquid. The material of the mask fabric may be, but is not limited to, paper, cloth, or spunlace nonwoven fabric.

[0021] In some embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 is of monolithic construction, i.e., the liquid storage member 10 is one single, integral piece.

[0022] Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a structural schematic diagram of a split type liquid storage member according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 3, in some other embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 comprises a first liquid storage member 11 and a second liquid storage member 12, the first liquid storage member 11 and the second liquid storage member 12 are provided separately, and the liquid storage member 10 is joined by the first liquid storage member 11 and the second liquid storage member 12.

[0024] In some embodiments, the area of ​​the first liquid storage member 11 is larger than the area of ​​the second liquid storage member 12, and the first liquid storage member 11 and the second liquid storage member 12 act on different skin areas, for example, the first liquid storage member 11 is used to act on a face area, and the second liquid storage member 12 is used to act on an eye area.

[0025] In some embodiments, the first liquid storage member 11 stores a first type of liquid, the second liquid storage member 12 stores a second type of liquid, and the first type of liquid and the second type of liquid are different liquids.

[0026] The skin of the eye area has less fat content, pores, and oil content than the skin of the face, so the skin of the eye area is more fragile than the skin of the face. When using a beauty essence, the skin of the eye area and the skin of the face have different tolerances. Therefore, the first type of liquid is stored in the first liquid storage member 11. By storing a second type of liquid in the second liquid storage member 12, it is possible to use an eye beauty serum on the skin around the eyes and a facial beauty serum on the skin around the face, thereby achieving more precise skin care.

[0027] In some embodiments, the first liquid storage member 11 and the second liquid storage member 12 are both sponges, and the pore size of both sponges is the same.

[0028] In some other embodiments, both the first liquid storage member 11 and the second liquid storage member 12 are sponges, but the pore size of the sponge of the first liquid storage member 11 is smaller than the pore size of the sponge of the second liquid storage member 12. This is because the smaller the pore size of the sponge, the stronger the ability to absorb and store liquid, and the larger the pore size of the sponge, the stronger the filtering ability, and the better the filtering of large-sized impurities. When the first liquid storage member 11 acts on the face region and the second liquid storage member 12 acts on the eye region, the face region is larger than the eye region, so the first liquid storage member 11 needs to store more liquid than the second liquid storage member 12, and the skin of the eye region is more fragile, so the filtering ability of the second liquid storage member 12 needs to be stronger, and therefore the pore size of the sponge of the first liquid storage member 11 needs to be smaller than the pore size of the sponge of the second liquid storage member 12.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the first connecting member 30 is any one or a combination of a magnetic material, a locking groove, and a locking button.

[0030] In some embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 and the base 20 are integrally molded. In this case, the liquid storage member 10 and the base 20 may be disposable products, and the liquid ejection structure 1 in the beauty device needs to be replaced after each skin care is completed, which is more convenient for users.

[0031] In some other embodiments, the liquid storage member 10 and the base 20 are detachably connected. In this case, only the liquid storage member 10 is a disposable product, and the base 20 can be washed after each skin care is completed, so that only the liquid storage member 10 needs to be replaced, which can further save resources. Specifically, when the liquid storage member 10 and the base 20 are detachably connected, the connection method may be, but is not limited to, adhesion, fastening, etc.

[0032] 1 and 4 in combination, FIG. 4 is a structural schematic diagram of a liquid storage member according to some embodiments of the present application, in which the concave surface faces upward.

[0033] As shown in Figures 1 and 4, in some embodiments, the shape of the liquid storage member 10 is concave, and the surface 13 of the liquid storage member 10 has opposing inner concave surfaces 131 and outer concave surfaces 132, as well as an edge surface 133 located between the inner concave surface 131 and the outer concave surface 132, and the inner concave surface 131 has a flat surface 1311 and a folded surface 1312, and the flat surface 1311 covers the surface of the energy output structure 40, and the folded surface 1312 and the edge surface 133 cover the surface of the base 20.

[0034] In some embodiments, the base 20 has a boss-shaped cylindrical shape, the base 20 has a first cylindrical portion 21 and a first flange portion 22, the first flange portion 22 has a first base portion 221 and a first protruding portion 222, the folding surface 1312 covers the surface of the first protruding portion 222 facing away from the energy output structure 40, the edge surface 133 covers the surface of the first base portion 221 facing away from the energy output structure 40, and the first protruding portion 222 surrounds the output surface of the energy output structure 40.
