[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0024] The technical means in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings of the embodiments. It will be clear that the following embodiments are only some, and not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort based on the embodiments of the present invention are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present invention, all directional indicators (e.g., up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are used to interpret the relative positional relationships and motion conditions between each component in a specific orientation (e.g., as shown in the drawings), and when that specific orientation changes, the directional indicators also change accordingly.

[0026] In this invention, unless otherwise specified, terms such as "connection" and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixed" may be a fixed connection, a removable connection, or an integral connection, a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, a direct connection, an indirect connection via an intermediate medium, or an internal communication between two elements or an interaction relationship between two elements, and is not particularly limited. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] Furthermore, descriptions of "first," "second," etc., in this invention application are merely for the purpose of explaining the objective and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance, nor as implicitly indicating the number of specified technical features. Therefore, the "first" and "second" features may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In addition, "and / or" appearing throughout the text includes three parallel solutions, and taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, or solution B, or a solution that satisfies both A and B simultaneously. Furthermore, while the technical means between each embodiment can be combined with each other, they must be achievable by a person skilled in the art, and if a combination of technical means is not mutually contradictory or achievable, such a combination of technical means should be considered nonexistent and not included within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0028] Many existing therapeutic devices can only be used for a single treatment method when treating the human body. If a user wants to experience different treatment methods, they need to purchase different types of therapeutic devices, which increases the user's purchase cost and degrades the user experience.

[0029] Therefore, the present invention is An interface module 10 for coupling with at least one type of treatment head, An operating module 20 is electrically connected to the interface module 10, A main control module 60 is electrically connected to the operating module 20, and the operating module 20 is driven and coupled by the interface module 10 to control the treatment head. We provide a handle for a therapeutic device, including the following:

[0030] Furthermore, there are many types of treatment heads used in therapeutic devices, including ultrasonic treatment heads, radiofrequency treatment heads, and light irradiation treatment heads.

[0031] In this embodiment, the handle for the treatment device may be provided with a mounting structure for attaching and securing the coupled treatment head. The interface module 10 may be provided within the mounting structure such that, when the treatment head is coupled to the mounting structure, multiple connection terminals on the treatment head are coupled to the interface module 10 to achieve electrical connection with each other.

[0032] In this embodiment, the interface module 10 is implemented by standard connectors such as female sockets, male headers, and board-to-board connectors, or by multiple conductive materials such as metal pogo pins, metal electrode posts, and metal electrode sheets.

[0033] Selectively, the interface module 10 may be provided with multiple connecting members, such as connectors or conductive materials, for realizing electrical connection functions. Here, each connecting member can be connected to correspond to one type of treatment head.

[0034] Selectively, the number of components in the interface module 10 for realizing electrical connection functions, such as connectors or conductive materials, may be at least one and less than or equal to the number of types of treatment heads. In other words, the structure of the connection points for coupling with the interface module 10 in some different types of treatment heads is exactly the same, meaning that these two types of treatment heads share a certain connection component on the interface module 10. This effectively simplifies the structure of the treatment device handle and reduces the manufacturing cost and process difficulty of the treatment device handle.

[0035] In this embodiment, the main control module 60 can be implemented by a main controller such as an MCU, DSP (Digital Signal Process chip), FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array chip), PLC, or SOC (System on Chip).

[0036] In this embodiment, the main control module 60 can control the operation module 20 to output a corresponding drive signal and drive the coupled treatment head. Selectively, the operation module 20 may include a plurality of corresponding sub-operation modules 21 (for example, at least two of an ultrasonic energy output module, a high-frequency energy output module, and an optical energy output module) depending on the type of actual treatment head. When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the main control module 60 can operate the coupled treatment head by controlling the operation of the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the type of coupled treatment head, thereby outputting a corresponding drive signal to the treatment head. For example, when an ultrasonic probe is coupled, the main control module 60 can control the ultrasonic energy output module to output an ultrasonic drive signal to the ultrasonic probe via the interface module 10. After receiving this ultrasonic drive signal, the ultrasonic probe can emit the corresponding ultrasound to act on the human body.

[0037] Selectively, the operating module 20 can be implemented by directly using a variable power supply module, for example, by a programmable power chip or a DC-DC circuit consisting of multiple switches. When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the main control module 60 controls the variable power supply module to output an operating voltage (i.e., a drive signal) corresponding to the type of treatment head to the treatment head, thereby turning on the power to the treatment head and putting it into operation. For example, if the operating voltage required for the photoirradiation treatment head to be coupled is 12V, after the photoirradiation treatment head is coupled, the main control module 60 can power the photoirradiation treatment head by controlling the variable power supply module to output an operating voltage of 12V to the photoirradiation treatment head via the interface module 10. In this case, the user can operate a trigger on the photoirradiation treatment head to emit an optical signal corresponding to the photoirradiation treatment head and act on the human body.

[0038] In this invention, the main control module 60 can communicate with the treatment head connected via the interface module 10 to determine the type of treatment head and then perform subsequent operations, or it can determine the type of currently connected treatment head based on an external signal and then perform subsequent operations.

[0039] With the above setup, as shown in Figures 22-24, the treatment device handle 200 of the present invention can be coupled with different types of treatment heads 100. After different types of treatment heads 100 are coupled, the operating module 20 can be controlled to drive the different treatment heads 100 and operate them, providing the user with a variety of treatment experiences. Thus, in actual use, by purchasing the treatment device handle 200 and many different types of treatment heads 100 that are compatible with this handle, the user can switch between various treatments without having to purchase a separate treatment device for each treatment, and the user experience with the treatment head 100 is greatly improved.

[0040] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, the handle for the therapeutic device further includes a trigger module 40. The trigger module 40 is electrically connected to the signal receiving terminal of the main control module 60. When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the trigger module 40 is triggered and transmits a coupling signal to the main control module 60, or it transmits a trigger signal to the main control module 60 when triggered by the user.

[0041] In this embodiment, the trigger module 40 may optionally be a contact trigger module, such as a microswitch. The trigger module 40 may be provided within the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. When the treatment head is stably coupled to the mounting structure and its signal terminal is stably electrically connected to the interface module 10, the treatment head presses the trigger module 40 provided within the mounting structure, thereby causing the trigger module 40 to transmit a coupling signal to the main control module 60. For example, the trigger module 40 includes a microswitch. One end of the microswitch is grounded, and the other end is electrically connected to a pull-up circuit and the main control module 60, respectively. When triggered, the microswitch outputs a low-level signal to the main control module 60, and when not triggered, it outputs a high-level signal to the main control module 60. Selectively, the trigger module 40 may be a non-contact trigger module, such as a Hall sensor module. A magnet may be provided at the bottom of the treatment head. When the treatment head is coupled to the mounting structure, the Hall sensor module detects the magnetic field from the gradually approaching magnet on the treatment head and outputs a coupling signal with a corresponding voltage value. When the voltage value of the coupling signal reaches a predetermined voltage threshold, the main control module 60 can confirm that the treatment head has already been fully coupled to the treatment device handle. Here, the predetermined voltage threshold is obtained by the R&D personnel through multiple tests during the R&D period. In this way, with the above setup, when the main control module 60 receives the output coupling signal, it can confirm that the treatment head is now coupled to the predetermined state and then perform the subsequent operation. If the output coupling signal is not received, the main control module 60 can remain in a sleep state, thus saving power consumption of the treatment device handle and improving the operating time of the treatment device handle. Alternatively, the treatment device handle may be further provided with a presentation module. The presentation module may be an optical signal presentation module, such as an LED light or display, or an audio presentation module. Specifically, if the current coupling state information confirms that the treatment head is not fully coupled, the main control module 60 controls the presentation module to maintain the presentation state.For example, if the indicator module is an LED light and the treatment head is not connected, the main control module 60 controls the LED light to remain constantly lit, and then controls it to turn off the LED light when it is confirmed that the treatment head has been connected. This achieves the purpose of indicating to the user whether or not the treatment head has been properly inserted.

[0042] Furthermore, the main control module 60 currently controls the operating module to enter a stopped state if it confirms, based on the coupling status information, that the treatment head is not fully coupled. For example, the main control module 60 currently outputs a low-level signal to the enable terminal of the operating module to cause the operating module to maintain the stopped state. In this way, in actual use, even if the user accidentally triggers the trigger switch electrically connected to the main control module 60 on the treatment device handle when the treatment head is not coupled, or if the external terminal accidentally clicks the function area indicating "start operation" on the external terminal, causing the external terminal to send a signal to the treatment device handle indicating "start operation," the operating module 20 in the treatment device handle will not start. That is, it will not output any electrical signals via the energy interface. This effectively guarantees the safety of using the treatment device.

[0043] The therapeutic device handle of the present invention includes an interface module 10, an operating module 20, and a main control module 60. Here, the interface module 10 is used to connect at least one type of therapeutic head. The main control module 60 is used to drive the operation of the connected therapeutic head by controlling the operating module 20 and outputting a drive signal to the connected therapeutic head via the interface module 10. This allows the user to experience different treatments by connecting and driving different types of therapeutic heads with the therapeutic device handle of the present invention, without having to purchase a full set of therapeutic devices separately. According to the present invention, the application of various types of therapeutic heads to the therapeutic device handle is achieved, and the user experience and convenience of the therapeutic device are effectively improved.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the interface module 10 includes at least one communication interface 12 and at least one energy interface 11. The energy interface 11 is electrically connected to the operating module 20 and used to couple with the signal terminal of the treatment head. The communication interface 12 is electrically connected to the main control module 60 and is used to connect to the communication terminal of the treatment head. When the interface module 10 is connected to the treatment head, the communication terminal of the treatment head establishes an electrical connection path with the main control module 60 via the communication interface 12.

[0045] In this embodiment, the energy interface 11 and the communication interface 12 can be realized by connecting members such as standard connectors or conductive materials as in the above embodiment. Here, the energy interface 11 and the communication interface 12 may be integrated into the same standard connector or realized by the same conductive material. For example, carrier communication may be used to provide power output voltage to the treatment head while simultaneously transmitting communication signals using the same conductive material.

[0046] Furthermore, the communication interface 12 may be multiple and have a one-to-one relationship with multiple types of treatment heads, or one or more communication interfaces 12 may be coupled to the communication terminals of at least two types of treatment heads.

[0047] In this embodiment, the communication interface 12 is electrically connected to the main control module 60. That is, when a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the communication end of the treatment head establishes an electrical connection path with the main control module 60 via the communication interface 12. In other words, a communication connection is established between the treatment head and the main control module 60, enabling mutual transmission of data. The main control module 60 can control the operation module 20 to perform the corresponding operation by determining the type of treatment head currently in operation through communication, or by determining the drive signal required for the current treatment.

[0048] Selectively, in one embodiment, there are multiple energy interfaces 11. Each energy interface 11 is used to couple with one type of treatment head. The operating module 20 includes multiple sub-operating modules 21. The output terminals of the multiple sub-operating modules 21 are electrically connected one-to-one with the multiple energy interfaces 11.

[0049] In this embodiment, the sub-operation module 21 may be a drive module 23 corresponding to a certain type of treatment head, such as an ultrasonic energy output module, a high-frequency energy output module, and an optical energy output module.

[0050] Specifically, referring to Figure 14, we will explain using the example that there are three energy interfaces 11 in Figure 14, there are three types of treatment heads A, B, and C, the sub-operation modules 21 correspond to the three types A, B, and C, and the three types of treatment heads are communication terminals that correspond to the same communication interface 12.

[0051] When a user wants to use treatment head A, the user simply needs to attach treatment head A to the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. In this case, the energy interface 11A is electrically connected to the signal terminal of the treatment head, and the communication interface 12 is electrically connected to the communication terminal of the treatment head. The communication terminal of the treatment head may also include a communication power terminal and a communication data terminal. When the communication terminal of the treatment head is coupled to the communication interface 12, its internal control circuit receives the operating voltage from the treatment device handle via the communication power terminal and establishes communication with the main control module 60 in the treatment device handle via the communication data terminal. The main control module 60 outputs a query signal to the outside at regular intervals via the communication data terminal. When a treatment head is coupled, the control circuit in the treatment head receives this query signal and returns a feedback signal, allowing the main control module 60 to confirm that the current treatment head has already been coupled. In this case, the main control module 60 communicates with the treatment head to confirm the correspondence of the treatment head.

[0052] The main control module 60 further includes a signal receiving terminal for receiving trigger signals. The main control module 60 is also used to activate the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the coupled treatment head when it receives a trigger signal and to output a drive signal to the coupled treatment head. Optionally, as shown in Figure 20, the signal receiving terminal may be electrically connected to a trigger module 40 on the treatment device (e.g., a touch panel, button, button array, etc.) so as to receive the trigger signal output by the trigger module 40 when the user operates the trigger module 40. Optionally, as shown in Figure 21, the signal receiving terminal may be electrically connected to a communication module 50 (e.g., a WIFI communication module 50, a 4G / 5G communication module 50, a CAN communication module 50, an RS485 communication module 50, etc.) so as to receive trigger signals transmitted via the communication module 50 from an external terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or other terminal device.

[0053] After receiving a trigger signal, the main control module 60 controls the start of operation of the corresponding sub-operation module 21 based on the trigger signal and outputs a corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head, thereby starting the treatment head to operate. For example, if the current treatment head A is a high-frequency treatment head and the sub-operation module 21 is a high-frequency drive module 23, and the user attaches treatment head A, the main control module 60 identifies that the currently coupled treatment head is treatment head A, and upon receiving a trigger signal, controls the sub-operation module 21 to output a corresponding high-frequency signal to treatment head A via the energy interface 11A. After the high-frequency signal is output to treatment head A, it is emitted externally via high-frequency electrodes on the treatment head and acts on the human body to treat it.

[0054] Furthermore, the user can trigger the trigger module 40 or operate an external terminal to stop the current operation of the sub-operation module 21, or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., via the main control module 60.

[0055] Selectively, in another embodiment, the number of energy interfaces 11 is at least one, and at least one energy interface 11 is used to be coupled with at least two types of treatment heads. The operating module 20 includes a switch module 22 and a plurality of sub-operating modules 21. Each of the switch modules 22 is electrically connected to the output terminals of the plurality of sub-operating modules 21 and to at least one energy interface 11. The controlled terminals of the switch module 22 are electrically connected to the main control module 60. The main control module 60 is used to conduct electricity between the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the treatment head and the energy interface 11 by controlling the operation of the switch module 22 when the treatment head is coupled.

[0056] In this embodiment, the switch module 22 may be composed of a plurality of switch tubes, such as IGBTs, MOS transistors, etc., or it may be implemented by a gate chip.

[0057] Specifically, referring to Figure 15, we will explain using the example that the treatment heads in Figure 15 are of three types, A, B, and C, the sub-operation modules 21 correspond to these three types, the three types of treatment heads have signal terminals corresponding to the same energy interface 11, and the three types of treatment heads have communication terminals corresponding to the same communication interface 12.

[0058] When a user attempts to use treatment head B, treatment head B is coupled into the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. In this case, after the main control module 60 confirms that the currently coupled treatment head is treatment head B, it controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct electricity through the passage between the sub-operation module 21B and the energy interface 11. In this case, as described in the above embodiment, when the main control module 60 receives a trigger signal via the signal receiving terminal, it starts the operation of the sub-operation module 20B, which outputs a drive signal to treatment head B via the switch module 22 and the energy interface 11, thereby causing treatment head B to begin treating the user.

[0059] Furthermore, the user can stop the current operation of the sub-operation module 21 or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., by triggering the trigger module 40 or operating an external terminal.

[0060] Selectively, in another embodiment, the number of energy interfaces 11 is at least one, and at least one energy interface 11 is used to couple with at least two types of treatment heads. The operating module 20 includes a plurality of sub-operating modules 21. The plurality of sub-operating modules 21 are electrically connected to the main control module 60.

[0061] In this embodiment, in all energy interfaces 11, at least one energy interface 11 is electrically connected to at least two sub-operation modules 21. The main control module 60 checks the type of treatment head currently coupled and then controls the corresponding sub-operation module 21. It drives the operation of the coupled treatment head by outputting the corresponding drive signal to the treatment head via the electrically connected energy interface 11. It also controls the other sub-operation modules 21 to maintain a stopped state.

[0062] In a selectively chosen embodiment, the operating module 20 includes a drive module 23 and a switch module 22. The switch module 22 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the drive module 23 and to at least one energy interface 11, respectively. The controlled terminal of the switch module 22 is electrically connected to a main control module 60. When a treatment head is coupled, the main control module 60 is used to conduct electricity through the passage between the energy interface 11 corresponding to the treatment head and the drive module 23 by controlling the operation of the switch module 22.

[0063] In this embodiment, the drive module 23 is implemented by the variable power supply module in the above embodiment and can provide operating voltages corresponding to different types of treatment heads. Alternatively, the drive module 23 can be implemented by an integrated chip that can simultaneously output different drive signals (for example, a signal drive chip that can output ultrasonic signals and high-frequency signals).

[0064] Specifically, referring to Figure 16, we will explain using the example that the treatment heads in Figure 16 are of three types, A, B, and C, the energy interface 11 corresponds to A, B, and C, and the three types of treatment heads are all connected to the same communication interface 12.

[0065] When a user attempts to use the treatment head C, the treatment head C is coupled to the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. In this case, communication is established between the treatment head C and the main control module 60. After the main control module 60 confirms that the coupled treatment head is the treatment head C, it controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct electricity through the passage between the drive module 23 and the treatment head C. As described in the above embodiment, the main control module 60 further includes a signal receiving terminal for receiving a trigger signal. After receiving the trigger signal, the main control module 60 is also used to output the corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head by putting the drive module 23 into an operating state.

[0066] Furthermore, the user can stop the current operation of the drive module 23 or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., by triggering the trigger module 40 or operating an external terminal.

[0067] Furthermore, in actual use, the interface module 10 may not have a communication interface 12 and may include only at least one energy interface 11. Selectively, in one embodiment of the present invention, the interface module 10 includes a plurality of energy interfaces 11. Each energy interface 11 is used to connect one type of treatment head. The operating module 20 includes a plurality of sub-operating modules 21, and the output terminals of the plurality of sub-operating modules 21 are electrically connected one-to-one to a plurality of energy interfaces 11. The main control module 60 has a signal receiving terminal for receiving a trigger signal and is used to output a drive signal to the coupled treatment head by activating the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the trigger signal when the trigger signal is received.

[0068] In this embodiment, the energy interface 11 and the sub-operation module 21 can be realized using the same components and modules as described in the above embodiment.

[0069] Specifically, referring to Figure 17, we will explain using the example that there are three energy interfaces 11 in Figure 14, there are three types of treatment heads (A, B, and C), and the sub-operating modules 21 correspond to these three types (A, B, and C).

[0070] When a user connects treatment head A, they can send a trigger signal to the communication module 50 connected to the signal receiving terminal in the above embodiment by operating the trigger module 40 connected to the signal receiving terminal as described in the above embodiment, or by operating an external terminal. After receiving the trigger signal, the main control module 60 can output a drive signal to treatment head A by driving the operation of the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the currently connected treatment head. For example, if the user has now connected an ultrasonic treatment head, after connection, the user can trigger button A on the treatment device handle that indicates "ultrasonic treatment head". After receiving the trigger signal from button A, the main control module 60 drives the start of operation of the ultrasonic signal operation module 20 corresponding to the ultrasonic treatment head, thereby outputting the corresponding ultrasonic signal to treatment head A via the energy interface 11A.

[0071] Furthermore, the user can stop the current operation of the sub-operation module 21 or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., by triggering the trigger module 40 or operating an external terminal.

[0072] In a selective embodiment, the interface module 10 includes at least one energy interface 11, and the at least one energy interface 11 is used to connect at least two types of treatment heads. The operating module 20 includes a switch module 22 and a plurality of sub-operating modules 21. Each of the switch modules 22 is electrically connected to the output terminals of the plurality of sub-operating modules 21 and to at least one energy interface 11. The main control module 60 has a signal receiving terminal for receiving a trigger signal, and when it receives a trigger signal, it controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct electricity to the passage between the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the treatment head and the energy interface 11, and is used to output a drive signal to the coupled treatment head by putting the sub-operation module 21 corresponding to the trigger signal into an operating state.

[0073] In this embodiment, the switch module 22 may consist of multiple switch tubes, such as IGBTs, MOS transistors, etc., or it may be implemented by a gate chip. At least two signal terminals of different types of treatment heads can be perfectly matched and coupled to the same energy interface 11.

[0074] Specifically, referring to Figure 18, we will explain using the example that the treatment heads in Figure 18 are of three types, A, B, and C, the sub-operating modules 21 correspond to the three types A, B, and C, and the signal terminals of the three types of treatment heads correspond to the same energy interface 11.

[0075] After the user connects the treatment head C to the treatment device handle, the user can similarly send a trigger signal to the communication module 50 connected to the signal receiving terminal in the above embodiment by operating the trigger module 40 connected to the signal receiving terminal as described in the above embodiment, or by operating an external terminal. After receiving the trigger signal, the main control module 60 controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct the passage between the sub-operation module 21C and the energy interface 11, and controls the start of operation of the sub-operation module 21C to output a corresponding drive signal to the treatment head C connected via the switch module 22 and the energy interface 11.

[0076] Furthermore, the user can stop the current operation of the sub-operation module 21 or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., by triggering the trigger module 40 or operating an external terminal.

[0077] In a selective embodiment, the interface module 10 includes at least one energy interface 11. The operating module 20 includes a drive module 23 and a switch module 22. The switch module 22 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the drive module 23 and at least one energy interface 11, respectively. The main control module 60 has a signal receiving terminal for receiving a trigger signal, and when it receives the trigger signal, it controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct electricity to the passage between the energy interface 11 corresponding to the treatment head and the drive module 23, and is used to output the corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head by putting the drive module 23 into an operating state.

[0078] In this embodiment, the drive module 23 is implemented by the variable power supply module in the above embodiment and can provide operating voltages corresponding to different types of treatment heads. Alternatively, the drive module 23 can also be implemented by an integrated chip that can simultaneously output different drive signals (for example, a signal drive chip that can output ultrasonic signals and high-frequency signals).

[0079] Specifically, referring to Figure 19, we will explain using the example that the treatment heads in Figure 19 are of three types, A, B, and C, and that the energy interface 11 corresponds to these three types, A, B, and C.

[0080] After the user connects the treatment head C to the treatment device handle, the user can similarly send a trigger signal to the communication module 50 connected to the signal receiving terminal in the above embodiment by operating the trigger module 40 connected to the signal receiving terminal as described in the above embodiment, or by operating an external terminal. After receiving the trigger signal, the main control module 60 activates the switch module 22 to conduct electricity to the passage between the drive module 23 and the energy interface 11C, and then controls the drive module 23 to output a drive signal corresponding to the treatment head C, so that this drive signal is output to the treatment head C via the energy interface 11C and starts the operation of the treatment head C.

[0081] Furthermore, the user can stop the current operation of the sub-operation module 21 or adjust the strength of the drive signal, etc., by triggering the trigger module 40 or operating an external terminal.

[0082] The present invention provides a method for controlling a therapeutic device handle. The therapeutic device handle includes an interface module and an operating module.

[0083] As shown in Figure 7, the handle of the treatment device is further equipped with a control device for storing and executing the above control method. The control device can be implemented using a main controller such as an MCU, DSP (Digital Signal Process), FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), PLC, or SOC (System on Chip).

[0084] In this embodiment, the handle for the treatment device may be provided with a mounting structure for attaching and securing the coupled treatment head. The interface module 10 may be provided within the mounting structure such that, when the treatment head is coupled to the mounting structure, multiple connection terminals on the treatment head are coupled to the interface module 10 to achieve electrical connection with each other.

[0085] Selectively, the interface module 10 may be provided with multiple connecting members, such as connectors or conductive materials, for realizing electrical connection functions. Here, each connecting member can be connected to correspond to one type of treatment head.

[0086] Selectively, the number of components in the interface module 10 for realizing electrical connection functions, such as connectors or conductive materials, may be at least one and less than or equal to the number of types of treatment heads. In other words, the structure of the connection points for coupling with the interface module 10 in some different types of treatment heads is exactly the same, meaning that these two types of treatment heads share a certain connection component on the interface module 10. This effectively simplifies the structure of the treatment device handle and reduces the manufacturing cost and process difficulty of the treatment device handle.

[0087] There are many types of treatment heads used in therapeutic devices, including, for example, ultrasonic treatment heads, radiofrequency treatment heads, and light irradiation treatment heads.

[0088] As shown in Figures 1 and 7, in one embodiment of the present invention, the above method includes the following steps. Step S10: Obtain the type of the current treatment head connected to interface module 10. Selectively, in this embodiment, the control device can acquire the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module 10 based on the received external signal.

[0089] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, the treatment device handle includes a trigger module, and the step of obtaining the current treatment head type coupled to the interface module 10 is, specifically, Step S11: The step of obtaining a trigger signal from the trigger module, Step S12: Based on the trigger signal, the step of obtaining the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module 10, Includes. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 8, the trigger module 40 is electrically connected to the control device 30 and can be implemented by a touch panel, buttons, a button array, etc. After the user connects the treatment head to the interface module 10, the user operates the trigger on the trigger module 40 corresponding to the current treatment head, causing the trigger module 40 to output the corresponding trigger signal to the control device 30. After the control device 30 receives this trigger signal, it determines the type of the current treatment head connected to the interface module 10 based on the trigger signal and a trigger signal-treatment head type mapping table pre-configured by the developer.

[0090] In addition to the ability for the user to set the treatment head by operating the trigger module 40 on the treatment device handle, the user can also set the type of the coupled treatment head by operating an external terminal connected to the treatment device handle. Specifically, in another embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the step of obtaining the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module 10 is: Step S13: A step of obtaining an installation signal from an external terminal, Step S14: A step to determine the type of treatment head currently coupled to the interface module 10 based on the installation signal, Includes.

[0091] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 9, a communication module 50 electrically connected to the control device 30 may be further provided inside the handle of the treatment device. The communication module 50 can be implemented by a wireless communication module, such as a WIFI communication module 50 or a 4G / 5G communication module 50, or by a wired communication module, such as a CAN communication module 50 or an RS485 communication module 50. The control device 30 can establish a communication connection with an external terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet, or other terminal device, via the communication module 50.

[0092] After the user connects the treatment head to the interface module 10, they can operate an external terminal, for example, by touching the corresponding function area in an app corresponding to the treatment device handle on a mobile phone, which allows the external terminal to output the corresponding installation signal. After receiving the installation signal via the communication module 50, the control device 30 can determine the type of the current treatment head connected to the interface module 10 based on the current installation signal and an installation signal-treatment head type mapping table pre-installed by the developer.

[0093] In a different embodiment, the control device may also obtain the type of the currently coupled treatment head from the coupled treatment head by spontaneously communicating with the coupled treatment head. Specifically, as shown in Figure 4, the step of obtaining the type of the currently coupled treatment head to the interface module 10 is: Step S15: When the treatment device handle identifies that the treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, it establishes a communication connection with the treatment head. Step S16: Obtain parameter information of the treatment head from the treatment head, and obtain the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module 10 based on the parameter information of the treatment head. Includes.

[0094] In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 10-12, the interface module 10 may be provided with a communication interface 12. The communication interface 12 is electrically connected to the control device 30, and when the treatment head is connected, the communication interface 12 can establish an electrical connection with the communication terminal of the treatment head, thereby enabling the control device to establish a communication connection with the treatment head via the communication interface.

[0095] Furthermore, the communication interface may be multiple and have a one-to-one connection with multiple types of treatment heads. Alternatively, one or more communication interfaces can be coupled to the communication terminals of at least two types of treatment heads.

[0096] Specifically, the control device 30 outputs a question signal to the outside via the communication interface at regular intervals. When a treatment head is coupled, the control circuit within the treatment head receives this question signal via its own communication terminal and returns a feedback signal, thereby allowing the control device 30 to confirm that a treatment head is currently coupled. In this case, the control device 30 achieves mutual data transmission by performing handshake communication with the treatment head, obtains parameter information of the treatment head from the treatment head, and confirms the type of currently coupled treatment head based on the parameter information of the treatment head. In this way, the user does not need to perform any further operations to confirm the type of currently coupled treatment head of the treatment device handle, effectively improving the convenience of using the treatment device handle.

[0097] Step S20: Depending on the type of treatment head, the operating module is controlled to output a drive signal to the coupled treatment head via the interface module 10, thereby driving the operation of the coupled treatment head.

[0098] In this embodiment, the operating module 20 may optionally include several types of corresponding sub-operating modules 21 (for example, at least two of the following: an ultrasonic energy output module, a high-frequency energy output module, a low-frequency energy output module, a medium-frequency energy output module, and an optical energy output module) depending on the actual treatment head type. As shown in Figure 5, the step of controlling the operating module according to the treatment head type and outputting a drive signal to the coupled treatment head via the interface module to drive the operation of the coupled treatment head is, specifically, Step S21: A step to determine the sub-operation module corresponding to the type of treatment head, depending on the type of treatment head, Step S22: A step of controlling the corresponding sub-operation module and outputting the corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head via the interface module to drive the operation of the coupled treatment head, Includes.

[0099] When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the control device 30 determines the sub-operation module corresponding to the current treatment head according to the type of treatment head, and controls the operation of the sub-operation module corresponding to the type of coupled treatment head, thereby outputting a corresponding drive signal to the treatment head and operating the coupled treatment head. For example, when an ultrasound probe is coupled, the control device 30 can control the ultrasound energy output module to output an ultrasound drive signal to the ultrasound probe via the interface module 10. After receiving this ultrasound drive signal, the ultrasound probe can emit the corresponding ultrasound and act on the human body.

[0100] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in Figure 10, the interface module 10 may include a plurality of energy interfaces 11. Each energy interface 11 is used to couple one type of treatment head. Each of the plurality of energy interfaces 11 is electrically connected to a plurality of sub-operation modules 21. After determining the current type of treatment head, the control device 30 can drive the operation of the coupled treatment head by controlling the corresponding sub-operation module 21 and outputting the corresponding drive signal to the treatment head via the correspondingly electrically connected energy interface 11.

[0101] In a selective embodiment, at least two types of treatment heads can be coupled to at least one energy interface 11 in the interface module 10. In other words, two types of treatment heads can be coupled to the same energy interface 11. Multiple sub-operation modules 21 are each electrically connected to their corresponding energy interface 11. After determining the current type of treatment head, the control unit 30 drives the operation of the coupled treatment head by controlling the corresponding sub-operation module 21 to output the corresponding drive signal to the treatment head via the correspondingly electrically connected energy interface 11. It also controls other sub-operation modules 21 to maintain a stopped state.

[0102] In a selective embodiment, the operating module 20 can be implemented by directly using a variable power supply module, such as a programmable power chip or a DC-DC circuit consisting of multiple switches. When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module 10, the control device 30 turns on the power to the treatment head by controlling the variable power supply module to output an operating voltage (i.e., a drive signal) corresponding to the type of treatment head to the treatment head, based on the current type of treatment head and a predetermined treatment head type-operating voltage mapping table. For example, if the operating voltage required for the phototherapy head to be coupled is 12V, after the phototherapy head is coupled, the control device 30 can power the phototherapy head by controlling the variable power supply module to output an operating voltage of 12V to the phototherapy head via the interface module 10. In this case, the user can operate a trigger on the phototherapy head to generate an optical signal corresponding to the phototherapy head and act on the human body.

[0103] In this way, as shown in Figures 22-24, the treatment device handle 200 of the present invention can be coupled with different types of treatment heads 100, and after different types of treatment heads 100 are coupled, the operating module 20 can be controlled to drive the different treatment heads 100 and operate the treatment heads 100, providing the user with a variety of treatment experiences. Thus, in actual use, by purchasing the treatment device handle 200 and many different types of treatment heads 100 that are compatible with this handle, the user can switch between various treatments without having to purchase a treatment device individually for each treatment, and the user experience with the treatment heads 100 is greatly improved.

[0104] Furthermore, in one embodiment of the present invention, prior to the step of obtaining the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module, the method further includes the following steps: The interface module acquires information on the current coupling status of the treatment head. After confirming that the treatment head is fully coupled to the interface module based on the coupling status information, the step of obtaining the type of the current treatment head coupled to the interface module is performed, or If, based on the coupling status information, it is confirmed that the treatment head is not fully coupled to the interface module, the system will either present it or control the operating module to enter a stopped state.

[0105] In this embodiment, the treatment device handle may be further provided with a trigger module. The trigger module 40 is electrically connected to the control device 30. When a treatment head is coupled to the interface module, the trigger module 40 is triggered, causing the trigger module 40 to output a coupling signal to the control device 30, which in turn allows the control device 30 to acquire information about the current coupling state of the treatment head based on the coupling signal it has just received.

[0106] Specifically, the trigger module 40 may selectively be a contact trigger module, such as a microswitch. The trigger module 40 may be provided within the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. When the treatment head is stably coupled to the mounting structure and its signal terminal establishes a stable electrical connection with the interface module 10, the treatment head presses the trigger module 40 provided within the mounting structure, causing the trigger module 40 to output a coupling signal to the control device 30. For example, the trigger module 40 includes a microswitch. One end of the microswitch is grounded, and the other end is electrically connected to a pull-up circuit and the control device 30, respectively. When the microswitch is triggered, a low-level signal is sent to the control device 30, while when it is not triggered, a high-level signal is sent to the control device 30.

[0107] Selectively, the trigger module 40 may be a non-contact trigger module, such as a Hall sensor module. A magnet may be provided at the bottom of the treatment head. When the treatment head is coupled to the mounting structure, the Hall sensor module detects the magnetic field from the gradually approaching magnet on the treatment head and outputs a coupling signal with a corresponding voltage value. When the voltage value of the coupling signal reaches a predetermined voltage threshold, the control device 30 can confirm that the treatment head has already been fully coupled to the treatment device handle. Here, the predetermined voltage threshold is obtained by the R&D personnel through multiple tests during the R&D period.

[0108] When the control device 30 obtains the current coupling status information of the treatment head according to the process of the above embodiment, it performs a corresponding operation based on the current coupling status information. Specifically, if the current coupling status information indicates that the treatment head is fully coupled, the control device 30 begins to execute step 10 above, that is, begins to obtain the type of the currently coupled treatment head, and controls the operation of the operating module 20 according to the type of treatment head.

[0109] Furthermore, the treatment device handle is further equipped with a display module. The display module may be an optical signal display module, such as an LED light or a display, or an audio display module. Specifically, if the current coupling status information confirms that the treatment head is not fully coupled, the control device 30 controls the display module to maintain the displayed state. For example, if the display module is an LED light and the treatment head is not coupled, the control device 30 controls the LED light to maintain a constantly lit state, and when it is confirmed that the treatment head is coupled, it controls the LED light to turn off. This achieves the purpose of informing the user whether or not the treatment head is properly inserted.

[0110] Furthermore, if the control unit 30 confirms, based on the coupling status information, that the treatment head is not fully coupled, it controls the operating module to also enter a stopped state. For example, the control unit 30 outputs a low-level signal to the enable terminal of the operating module to cause the operating module to maintain the stopped state. In this way, in actual use, even if the user accidentally triggers the trigger switch electrically connected to the control unit 30 on the treatment device handle when the treatment head is not coupled, or if the external terminal accidentally clicks the function area indicating "start operation" on the external terminal, causing the external terminal to send a signal to the treatment device handle indicating "start operation," the operating module 20 in the treatment device handle will not activate. That is, it will not output any electrical signals via the energy interface 11. This effectively ensures the safety of using the treatment device.

[0111] The method for controlling a therapeutic device handle according to the present invention includes the following steps: The type of the current therapeutic head coupled to the interface module is acquired; the operation module is controlled according to the type of therapeutic head and a drive signal is output to the coupled therapeutic head via the interface module, thereby driving the operation of the coupled therapeutic head. This allows the user to experience different treatments by coupling and driving different types of therapeutic heads with the therapeutic device handle, without having to purchase a full set of therapeutic devices separately. According to the present invention, the application of various types of therapeutic heads to the therapeutic device handle is achieved, effectively improving the user experience and convenience of the therapeutic device.

[0112] In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 11, the interface module 10 includes at least one energy interface 11 for coupling with at least two types of treatment heads. The operating module 20 further includes a switch module.

[0113] In this embodiment, the same energy interface 11 can also be used for at least two different types of treatment heads. In this way, the number of energy interfaces 11 can be effectively reduced and the structural integration can be improved in the structural design of the interface module 10 of the treatment device handle.

[0114] In this embodiment, the switch module 22 may be composed of multiple switch tubes, such as IGBTs, MOS transistors, etc., or it can be realized by a gate chip.

[0115] Specifically, the step of controlling the corresponding sub-operation module and outputting the corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head via the interface module 11 to drive the operation of the coupled treatment head is: The process involves controlling the operation of a switch module according to the type of treatment head, thereby establishing a pathway between a sub-operation module corresponding to the type of treatment head and an energy interface for coupling the treatment head, The process involves controlling a corresponding sub-operation module and outputting a corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head via a switch module and energy interface to drive the operation of the coupled treatment head. Includes.

[0116] Referring to Figure 11, we will explain, as an example, that the treatment heads in Figure 11 are of three types, A, B, and C, that the sub-operation module 21 corresponds to the three types A, B, and C, and that the energy interface 11 can be coupled with two types of treatment heads.

[0117] When a user attempts to perform treatment using treatment head B, treatment head B is coupled into the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. In this case, the control device 30 confirms that the type of currently coupled treatment head is treatment head B and confirms that the currently required sub-operation module is sub-operation module B based on a predetermined treatment head type-sub-operation module mapping table. Subsequently, the control device 30 conducts the passage between sub-operation module 21B and the energy interface 11 by controlling the operation of the switch module 22, and drives the operation of the coupled treatment head B by controlling sub-operation module 21B to output the corresponding drive signal to the coupled treatment head B via the switch module and the energy interface.

[0118] In this way, the above installation saves space that would otherwise be required to provide multiple energy interfaces on the treatment device handle, thereby effectively improving the integration density of the treatment device handle.

[0119] In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 6 and 12, the interface module includes at least one energy interface for coupling a treatment head. The operation module includes a switch module and a drive module. The step of driving the operation of the coupled treatment head by controlling the operation module according to the type of treatment head and outputting a drive signal to the coupled treatment head via the interface module is, specifically, Step S23: A step of controlling the operation of the switch module according to the type of treatment head to conduct electricity to the passage between the drive module and the energy interface for coupling the treatment head, Step S24: A step of controlling the drive module and outputting a drive signal corresponding to the type of treatment head to the coupled treatment head via the switch module and energy interface to drive the operation of the coupled treatment head, Includes.

[0120] In this embodiment, the drive module 23 is implemented by the variable power supply module in the above embodiment and can provide operating voltages corresponding to different types of treatment heads. Alternatively, the drive module 23 can be implemented by an integrated chip that can simultaneously output different drive signals (for example, a signal drive chip that can output ultrasonic signals and high-frequency signals).

[0121] In this embodiment, the number of energy interfaces may correspond to the number of connectable treatment heads; that is, each energy interface is used to connect to one type of treatment head. Alternatively, the number of energy interfaces may be less than the number of treatment heads; that is, at least one energy interface can be connected to at least two types of treatment heads.

[0122] In this embodiment, the control device 30 acquires the current treatment head type, determines the energy interface 11 to which the treatment head is currently coupled, and controls the current switch module to conduct electricity through the passage between this energy interface 11 and the output terminal of the drive module 23. Subsequently, it controls the drive module 23 to output a drive signal corresponding to the treatment head type to the coupled treatment head via the switch module and the energy interface, thereby driving the operation of the coupled treatment head.

[0123] Specifically, referring to Figure 12, we will explain using the example that the treatment heads in Figure 12 are of three types, A, B, and C, and that the energy interface 11 corresponds to these three types, A, B, and C.

[0124] When a user attempts to use the treatment head C, the treatment head C is coupled to the mounting structure of the treatment device handle. In this case, the treatment head C establishes communication with the control device 30 via the communication interface 12. Once the control device 30 confirms that the coupled treatment head is the treatment head C, it controls the operation of the switch module 22 to conduct electricity through the passage between the drive module 23 and the energy interface C11, and controls the drive module 23 to output a drive signal corresponding to the treatment head C to the treatment head via the switch module 22 and the energy interface C11, thereby driving the operation of the treatment head.

[0125] Thus, the above installation reduces the wiring area of ​​the operating module-related circuits inside the treatment device handle, saving internal space in the treatment device handle and improving its structural integration.
