Memory-replaceable healthcare smart band

[0001] The present invention relates to a healthcare smart band that can provide biostimulation of a frequency set differently according to one or more pieces of information selected from among user characteristic information including gender or age, user health status information, and disease type information by simply replacing a frequency-specific memory chip while wearing the healthcare smart band on various parts of the body including the wrist, and that provides a configuration for receiving a bio-responsive electromagnetic wave signal through wave projection (electrical wave projection, electromagnetic wave projection) onto the human body, thereby enabling three-dimensional understanding of the health status / stress status / disease progression status, etc. of biological tissues / organs / cells, and that provides a structure in which a functional expansion main body unit that can be composed of a biostimulation-memory module for biostimulation and a bioanalysis wave-memory module for bioanalysis, etc., is detachably connected to a connecting band, thereby enabling the replacement of a plurality of types of main body units that exhibit various functions.

[0002]

[0003] In recent years, interest in health has been steadily increasing amidst the backdrop of a materially affluent civilization. Furthermore, changes in dietary habits and the rise of various adult diseases due to lack of exercise have fueled a growing interest in health. Consequently, various functional and diverse beauty devices have been developed and widely used. Electrotherapy devices are one such device.

[0004] Electrotherapy can be defined as a field of medical science that diagnoses and treats diseases using electricity, such as current, direct current, alternating current, and pulsed current.

[0005] Types of electrical therapy include medical galvanism, iontoporesis, electrical stimulation therapy (EST), transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), functional electrical stimulation (FES), interferential current therapy (ICT), shortwave diathermy (SWD), microwave diathermy (MWD), and ultrasound.

[0006] Electrotherapy is used to treat musculoskeletal injuries and diseases, nervous system injuries and diseases, circulatory disorders, skin diseases, internal diseases, and chronic inflammatory diseases. The greatest advantage of this type of treatment using electromagnetic energy is that it utilizes the body's phenomena and characteristics to induce electrical changes in the body through external electrical stimulation, which is beneficial for treatment.

[0007] However, the functions of electrical therapy vary significantly depending on the frequency, waveform, current, current intensity, and application site.

[0008] Conventional electrotherapy typically delivers regular low-frequency signals with identical frequency characteristics to the body to deliver electrical stimulation. However, since low-frequency current is delivered only through patch-type electrode pads directly attached to the affected area of ​​the recipient, the range of electrical stimulation delivery is narrow, making it somewhat insufficient to expect therapeutic and massage effects through electrical stimulation. In addition, the electrical stimulation delivered through the electrode pads is somewhat strong to the recipient, causing the problem of physical stimulation being directly transmitted to the recipient.

[0009]

[0010] Accordingly, the present invention aims to provide a smart band having a structure in which a frequency-specific memory chip is detachably mounted on a bio-stimulation-memory module having a chip-mounting slot, thereby improving the problems of the prior art, thereby providing a new type of memory-replaceable healthcare smart band that allows the user to receive bio-stimulation of a frequency set differently according to one or more pieces of information selected from among user characteristic information including gender or age, user health status information, and disease type information simply by replacing the frequency-specific memory chip while wearing the band on various body parts including the wrist.

[0011]

[0012] And the present invention provides a new type of memory-replaceable healthcare smart band that can three-dimensionally identify the health status / stress status / disease progress status of biological tissues / organs / cells by providing a configuration in which a functional expansion main body unit fixed to a connection band is configured as a bio-analysis wave-memory module composed of a main body module for wave generation or a main body module for external wave transmission, and receives a biological response electromagnetic wave signal through wave projection (electrical wave projection, electromagnetic wave projection) into the human body.

[0013]

[0014] In addition, the present invention provides a new type of memory-replaceable healthcare smart band that can easily and conveniently implement functional expansion by providing a structure in which a functional expansion main body unit, which can be composed of a bio-stimulation-memory module for bio-stimulation and a bio-analysis wave-memory module for bio-analysis, is detachably connected to a connecting band, thereby enabling replacement of a plurality of types of main body units that exhibit various functions.

[0015]

[0016] The present invention comprises a configuration including a connecting band (100) in a belt shape that is worn while wrapping around various body parts including the wrist area; a functional expansion main body unit (200) that is fixed to the connecting band (100) and performs a setting function;

[0017] The above-mentioned functional expansion main body unit (200) provides a memory-replaceable healthcare smart band characterized by being one selected from among a frequency-designated bio-stimulation-memory module (210) that performs generation, output, and control of a microcurrent signal that performs bio-stimulation by outputting an electromagnetic wave of a designated frequency; a bio-analysis wave-memory module (220) that controls self-generation of waves and projection into the human body or projection into the human body of waves transmitted from the outside, and controls reception or analysis of a bio-responsive electromagnetic wave signal to the waves;

[0018]

[0019] According to the memory-replaceable healthcare smart band of the present invention, by simply replacing the frequency-specific memory chip, bio-stimulation of a frequency set differently according to one or more pieces of information selected from among user characteristic information including gender or age, user health status information, and disease type information can be provided, thereby maximizing the stimulation effect while simplifying the device configuration, thereby increasing durability and operational stability, and minimizing device operation, thereby improving user convenience. In addition, according to the memory-replaceable healthcare smart band of the present invention, since the function-expansion main unit, which can be composed of a bio-stimulation-memory module for bio-stimulation and a bio-analysis wave-memory module for bio-analysis, is structured to be detachably connected to the connecting band, a plurality of types of main unit exhibiting various functions can be replaced and used, thereby achieving the effect of simply and easily implementing function expansion.

[0042] After the above usage permission time has elapsed, the use of the frequency-designated biostimulation-memory module (210) is completed, and the frequency-designated information of the microcurrent signal can be removed.

Meanwhile, in the drawings and detailed description, illustrations and references to structures and operations that are easily understood by those skilled in the art have been simplified or omitted. In particular, in the drawings and detailed descriptions, detailed descriptions and illustrations of specific technical structures and operations of elements not directly related to the technical features of the present invention have been omitted, and only technical structures related to the present invention have been briefly illustrated or described.

[0053]

[0054] A memory-replaceable healthcare smart band (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured to include a connection band (100) and a function expansion main body unit (200) as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

[0055]

[0056] The connecting band (100) is formed in the shape of a belt that wraps around various body parts including the wrist area of ​​the human body, and is worn in a form that wraps around the entire body parts including the wrist area.

[0057]

[0058] The functional expansion main unit (200) is fixed to the connection band (100), and the functional expansion main unit (200) is provided in a number of types to perform various functions such as bio-stimulation function, bio-analysis function, etc. For this purpose, the functional expansion main unit (200) may be formed of a frequency-designated bio-stimulation-memory module (210) or a bio-analysis wave-memory module (220). The frequency-designated bio-stimulation-memory module (210) or the bio-analysis wave-memory module (220) is formed in a thin block shape so as to be smoothly connected to the connection band (100), while minimizing discomfort when worn on various body parts including the user's wrist.

[0059]

[0060] The frequency-designated bio-stimulation-memory module (210) is a module that generates, outputs, and controls microcurrent signals that perform bio-stimulation by outputting electric and electromagnetic waves of designated frequencies. Here, the frequency-designated bio-stimulation-memory module (210) according to an embodiment of the present invention generates and outputs microcurrent signals of designated frequencies by replacing frequency-specific memory chips (230) provided in multiple types as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The frequency-specific memory chip (230) is a chip in which frequency-designation information of the microcurrent signal is set and stored, and the frequency-specific memory chip (230) has frequency-designation information that is set differently according to one or more pieces of information selected from user characteristic information including gender or age, user health status information, and disease type information.

In this way, the bio-responsive electromagnetic wave signals emitted by biological tissues / organs / cells show different output patterns depending on the biological tissue or organ, and also show different output patterns depending on the health status / stress status / disease progress status of the biological tissue / organ / cell. Therefore, through the reception and analysis of the bio-responsive electromagnetic wave signals generated in response to the waves, the health status / stress status / disease progress status of each biological tissue / organ / cell can be three-dimensionally identified.

Here, if the frequency of the waves projected onto the human body is increased to increase the stimulation resolution, bioanalysis at the chromosome level or DNA level beyond the cell level may become possible.

[0066]

[0067] Meanwhile, the bioanalysis wave-memory module (220) may be equipped with a wave projection strap (223) as shown in FIG. 7. The wave projection strap (223) is connected to the wave generation main body module (221) or the external wave transmission main body module (222), and is arranged along the connection band (100) to project waves to the entire area surrounding various body parts including the wrist area. Through this, the generation efficiency of the bioreaction electromagnetic wave signal and the reception efficiency of the bioreaction electromagnetic wave signal can be increased.

[0068]

[0069] In addition, the bioanalysis wave-memory module (220) may be equipped with a biosignal detection sensor (224) that receives a bioreaction electromagnetic wave signal emitted by a living tissue or cell in response to a wave. The biosignal detection sensor (224) may be formed as a connection band-coupled sensor (224a) separately arranged in a connection band (100) as shown in FIG. 8, or may be formed as a body module-coupled sensor (224b) coupled to a body module (221) for wave generation or a body module (222) for external wave transmission.

[0070]

[0071] Here, the functional expansion main body unit (200) can be detachably fixed to the connection band (100). To this end, the connection band (100) is provided with a main body unit mounting block (120) having a main body unit detachment button (110) as shown in FIG. 9, so that the functional expansion main body unit (200) can be fixed to the main body unit mounting block (120).

[0072]

[0073] Meanwhile, the memory-replaceable healthcare smart band (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention can perform precise bio-analysis by transmitting information from the bio-analysis wave-memory module (220) to the outside through an analysis device (400) that can be configured with an analysis computer (410), a smartphone (420) with an analysis app (430) installed, etc., as shown in FIG. 10.

[0074]

[0075] The present invention, configured as described above, provides a smart band having a structure in which a frequency-specific memory chip (230) is detachably mounted on a frequency-specific bio-stimulation-memory module (210) having a chip-mounting slot (211), so that, while worn on various body parts including the wrist, the user can receive bio-stimulation of a frequency set differently according to one or more pieces of information selected from among user characteristic information including gender or age, user health status information, and disease type information, thereby maximizing the stimulation effect while simplifying the device configuration, thereby increasing durability and operational stability, and minimizing device operation, thereby improving user convenience.

[0076] And the memory-replaceable healthcare smart band (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured with a bio-analysis wave-memory module (220) in which a function-extending main body unit (200) fixed to a connection band (100) is configured with a main body module (221) for wave generation or a main body module (222) for external wave transmission, and provides a configuration for receiving a bio-reaction electromagnetic wave signal through wave projection (electric wave projection, electromagnetic wave projection) to the human body, so that the health status / stress status / disease progress status, etc. of biological tissues / organs / cells can be three-dimensionally identified, and by implementing this as a smart band structure, low cost, high functionality, and improved user convenience are promoted.
