[0080] Fig. 2 is a schematic perspective view of a light irradiator (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 3 is a schematic bottom perspective view of a light irradiator (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to Figs. 2 and 3, the light irradiator (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention can be coupled to a massage device (1000). For example, the light irradiator (1) can be coupled to the upper rear surface of a body massage unit (1100).

[0081] The light irradiator (1) can perform treatment by irradiating light onto the user's scalp or face as the slide moves. For example, the light irradiator (1) can provide the user with low-level laser therapy (LLLT) that stimulates metabolism in the relevant area and activates tissue function by irradiating light of a specific wavelength onto the scalp or face.

[0082] The light source (1) may include, for example, a mount portion (100), a slide portion (200), and an optical module (300).

[0083] The mount unit (100) may be coupled to the body massage unit (1100) or may constitute a part of the body massage unit (1100). In other words, the mount unit (100) may be provided integrally with the rear cover of the body massage unit (1100).

[0084] A slide unit (200) can be connected to the upper part of the mount unit (100). The slide unit (200) can slide forward and backward while being connected to the mount unit (100) (see FIG. 20). When the slide unit (200) is positioned at the rear (scalp care mode, see the left drawing of FIG. 20), the light irradiator (1) can irradiate light to the user's scalp, and when the slide unit (200) is positioned at the front (facial care mode, see the right drawing of FIG. 20), the light irradiator (1) can irradiate light to the user's face. The user can slide the slide unit (200) forward or backward by holding one side of the slide unit (200). In addition, it is also possible to provide an actuator to the slide unit (200) or the mount unit (100) and slide the slide unit (200) by driving the actuator.

For example, when the slide unit (200) is positioned at the rear of the mount unit (100) and the optical module (300) irradiates light to the user's scalp, the optical module (300) may irradiate light of a wavelength band effective for scalp care or hair loss prevention to the user's scalp. In addition, when the slide unit (200) slides forward and is positioned at the front of the mount unit (100), the optical module (300) may irradiate light of a wavelength band effective for whitening or wrinkle improvement to the user's face. Below, the detailed configuration of the light source (1) is described with reference to the drawings.

[0086] Fig. 4 is a schematic perspective view of the mount part (100), Fig. 5 is a schematic bottom perspective view of the mount part (100), Fig. 6 is a schematic exploded perspective view of the mount part (100), and Fig. 7 is a schematic exploded bottom perspective view of the mount part (100).

[0087] Referring to FIGS. 4 to 7, the mount portion (100) may include a body part (110), a connecting bracket (120), a mount lower housing (130), and a mount upper housing (140).

[0088] The body part (110) may be provided by including at least one of an injection molded material or a metal material, and may be coupled to the body massage unit (1100). For example, the body part (110) may be coupled to the upper rear surface of the body massage unit (110). Here, the body part (110) may be provided as a component of the body massage unit (110). In other words, the body part (110) may constitute at least a portion of the rear cover of the body massage unit (110).

[0089] The body part (110) may be provided with a connecting bracket coupling member (111) having a hollow formed on the inside. The connecting bracket coupling member (111) may be provided to protrude upward or downward from the inside of the body part (110). A connecting bracket (120) may be detachably inserted and coupled into the connecting bracket coupling member (111). To this end, a first catch (121) may be provided to protrude on the outer circumference of the connecting bracket (120), and a second catch (111a) may be provided to protrude on the inner circumference of the connecting bracket coupling member (111) to selectively engage with the first catch (121) in the vertical direction depending on the rotation angle of the connecting bracket (120). The connecting bracket (120) is inserted into the connecting bracket coupling port (111) so that the first catch (121) of the connecting bracket (120) and the second catch (111a) of the connecting bracket coupling port (111) do not overlap vertically, and the connecting bracket (120) is rotated so that the first catch (121) and the second catch (111a) overlap vertically, thereby fixing the connecting bracket (120) to the connecting bracket coupling port (111). The connecting bracket (120) can be separated from the connecting bracket coupling port (111) through the reverse process of the above-described process. The structure for detachably coupling the connecting bracket (120) to the connecting bracket coupling port (111) can be changed to a structure commonly used in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, such as a screw fastening method, a hook fastening method, a fastening member use method, etc.

[0090] The connecting bracket (120) can connect the mount lower housing (130) and the body part (110). For example, the connecting bracket (120) can be connected to the mount lower housing (130) by being inserted and fixed into the connecting bracket joint (111) of the body part (110) after the upper part is connected to the mount lower housing (130). A hollow space can be formed on the inside of the connecting bracket (120). The hollow space on the inside of the connecting bracket (120) can provide a space in which wires, flexible printed circuit boards, and other electronic components are arranged.

[0091] The height of the connecting bracket (120) can be adjusted according to the user's physical condition. For example, the connecting bracket (120) may be provided with a plurality of connecting brackets (120) having different heights, and a connecting bracket (120) having a height corresponding to the user's height may be selected and mounted. If the user's sitting height is high, a problem may occur in which the head touches or collides with the light irradiator (1) when sitting on the massage device (1000). In this case, a high-height connecting bracket (120) manufactured to fit the user's height may be mounted on the light irradiator (1). Conversely, if the user's sitting height is low, a problem may occur in which the light irradiated from the light irradiator (1) is not transmitted to the body with sufficient intensity. In this case, a low-height connecting bracket (120) manufactured to fit the user's height may be mounted on the light irradiator. That is, connecting brackets of various heights can be manufactured / provided in various sizes according to the user's body, and the user can use the light irradiator by selecting / installing a connecting bracket of an appropriate height according to his / her height. The mount lower housing (130) can be fastened to the connecting bracket (120). For example, the mount lower housing (130) and the connecting bracket (120) can be fastened using a separate fastening member or through a mechanical structure. In addition, the mount lower housing (130) and the connecting bracket (120) can be provided as an integral part. For example, the mount lower housing (130) and the connecting bracket (120) can be integrally injection-molded. An opening (131) can be formed in the mount lower housing (130). When the connecting bracket (120) is fastened to the mount lower housing (130), the opening (131) can be provided to communicate with a hollow space inside the connecting bracket (120). The front end of the mount lower housing (130) may be provided with a first receiving groove part (132) that is retracted inward. The first receiving groove part (132) may provide a space in which an optical module (300) is placed.

[0092] Referring to Fig. 8, a cover member (133) may be detachably coupled to the bottom surface of the mount lower housing (130). The cover member (133) may be provided to prevent mechanisms, electronic components, etc., arranged inside the mount lower housing (130) from being exposed to the outside. The cover member (133) may include a cover plate (133a) and a magnet (133b). The cover plate (133a) may be provided as a structure bent in the shape of the letter 'L' overall. A magnet (133b) may be provided on one surface of the cover plate (133a). The magnet (133b) may be coupled to a metal material, such as a screw, coupled to the mount lower housing (130) through magnetic force. It is also possible to provide a metal material on one surface of the cover plate (133a) and couple a separate magnet to the mount lower housing (130). Additionally, it is also possible to attach the covering member (133) to the mount lower housing (130) using a separate fastening member or through a hook structure.

[0093] Referring again to FIGS. 4 to 7, the mount upper housing (140) can be coupled to the upper portion of the mount lower housing (130). A slide slit (141) can be formed in the mount upper housing (140). The slide slit (141) can be formed by cutting the inner side of the mount upper housing (140) in the longitudinal direction, and can expose the slide rail (150) to the outside. The roller assembly (230) of the slide unit (200) can pass through the slide slit (141) and be connected to the slide rail (150). The slide slit (141) can provide a path along which the slide unit (200) slides together with the slide rail (150). That is, the slide unit (200) can slide forward and backward along the slide slit (141).

[0094] A flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (or receiving space, receiving portion) (143) may be provided on the inside of the slide slit (141). The flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) may be provided with a through hole (143a) through which a flexible printed circuit board (or wire) (322, see FIG. 19) is introduced or withdrawn when the slide portion (200) slides. The flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) may provide a space in which a flexible printed circuit board (322) is received. A detailed description of the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) will be described later.

[0095] The front end of the upper mount housing (140) may be provided with a second receiving groove part (142) that is retracted inward. The second receiving groove part (142) may be formed at a position corresponding to the first receiving groove part (132). The second receiving groove part (142) may provide a space in which the optical module (300) is placed. In other words, when the upper mount housing (140) is coupled to the lower mount housing (130), a receiving groove (S1) may be formed at the front end of the mount portion (100) by the first receiving groove part (132) and the second receiving groove part (142). The receiving groove (S1) may provide a space in which the optical module (300) is received when the slide portion (200) slides rearward. That is, the optical module (300) may be received inside the receiving groove (S1).

[0096] Referring to FIG. 9, the slide rail (150) can provide a movement path of the slide unit (200) and can be coupled to the bottom surface of the mount upper housing (140). However, it is also possible to couple the slide rail (150) to the mount lower housing (130) as long as it has a structure that can provide a movement path of the slide unit (200). The slide rail (150) can be formed of a metal material or an injection molded material. The interior of the slide rail (150) can be exposed to the outside through the slide slit (141). Therefore, the roller assembly (230) can be connected to the slide rail (150) by penetrating the slide slit (141).

[0097] A stopper (153) may be provided at the front end of the slide rail (150) to prevent the roller assembly (230) from being dislodged from the front end of the slide rail (150). A buffer member (153a, see FIG. 17) that can alleviate impact when the roller assembly (230) collides may be provided on one side of the stopper (153) facing the slide rail (150).

[0098] Referring to FIG. 10, the slide rail (150) may include a base part (151) extending forward and backward and a side part (152) bent upward on both sides of the width direction of the base part (151). The side part (152) may be provided by being bent multiple times. For example, the longitudinal cross-sectional shape of the side part (152) may be provided in an overall 'ㄷ' shape. A first roller part (233a, see FIG. 16) of a roller assembly (230) may be arranged on the inside of the side part (152), and a second roller part (233b, see FIG. 16) of the roller assembly (230) may be arranged on the upper side of the side part (152).

[0099] At least one positioning hole (152a) may be formed in the side part (152). For example, the positioning hole (152a) may be provided at the front and rear ends of the side part (152). The positioning hole (152a) may be provided to determine the position of the roller assembly (230). In other words, when the roller assembly (230) slides, the position of the roller assembly (230) may be determined when the roller assembly positioning member (233c) is inserted into the positioning hole (152a). Thereafter, when a predetermined external force is applied to the roller assembly (230), the roller assembly positioning member (233c) may be detached from the positioning hole (152a) and may become capable of sliding.

[0100] Referring to FIG. 11, a position sensor (154) for sensing the position of the roller assembly (230) may be disposed at at least one of the front end or the rear end of the slide rail (150). For example, the position sensor (154) may be disposed at the rear end of the slide rail (150). The position sensor (154) may be directly coupled to the rear end of the slide rail (150) or may be disposed at the rear end of the slide rail (150) while being coupled to the mount lower housing (130) or the mount upper housing (140).

[0101] The position sensor (154) may be provided with, for example, at least one of a micro switch, a reed switch, a proximity sensor, a light sensor, and a hall sensor. When the position sensor (154) is provided with a micro switch, it can detect whether the roller assembly (230) has been contacted, thereby determining whether the roller assembly (230) is positioned at the rear or front end of the slide rail.

[0102] When the position sensor (154) is equipped with a reed switch, the reed switch may be equipped in the mount upper housing (140) corresponding to at least one of the front or rear ends of the slide rail (150). For example, the reed switch may be equipped in at least one of one side of the mount upper housing (140) corresponding to the front end of the slide rail (150) or one side of the mount upper housing (140) corresponding to the rear end of the slide rail (150). However, the reed switch may be directly equipped in at least one of the front or rear ends of the slide rail (150), or may be equipped in the mount lower housing (130) corresponding to at least one of the front or rear ends of the slide rail (150). Meanwhile, the roller assembly (230) may be equipped with a magnet that can turn the reed switch on / off. For example, the magnet may be fixed to the roller assembly (230) by a separate magnet bracket. When the roller assembly (230) slides along the slide rail (150), and the magnet provided in the roller assembly (230) is positioned opposite the reed switch, the reed switch can be turned on. In addition, when the magnet moves away from the reed switch, the reed switch can be turned off. The control unit can determine the position of the roller assembly (230) by determining whether the reed switch is on or off.

[0103]

[0104] The control unit can control the wavelength and amount of light irradiated from the optical module (300) based on the position information of the roller assembly (230) received from the position sensor (154). For example, when the roller assembly (230) is located at the rear end of the slide rail (150) (when it is in contact with the position sensor (154), the control unit can control the optical module (300) to irradiate light of a wavelength and amount of light suitable for scalp care of the user in the scalp care mode. Conversely, when the roller assembly (230) is located at the front end of the slide rail (when it is not in contact with the position sensor (154), the control unit can control the optical module (300) to irradiate light of a wavelength and amount of light suitable for facial care of the user in the facial care mode. At this time, the amount of light (or intensity of light) irradiated in the scalp care mode may be greater than the amount of light (intensity of light) irradiated in the facial care mode (for the purpose of protecting the user's eyesight).

[0105]

[0106] Fig. 12 is a schematic bottom perspective view of the slide part (200), Fig. 13 is a schematic side view of the slide part (200), Fig. 14 is a schematic exploded perspective view of the slide part (200), and Fig. 15 is a schematic exploded bottom perspective view of the slide part (200).

[0107] Referring to FIGS. 12 to 15, the slide unit (200) may include a slide lower housing (210), a slide upper housing (220), and a roller assembly (230).

[0108] The slide lower housing (210) is a member that constitutes the lower portion of the slide portion (200), and may be provided with at least one of an injection molded material or a metal material. An optical module coupling port (211) may be provided on one side of the slide lower housing (210). For example, the optical module coupling port (211) may be provided at the front end of the slide lower housing (210). An optical module (300) may be inserted and coupled into the optical module coupling port (211). The bottom surface of the optical module (300) may be exposed to the outside through the optical module coupling port (211). The optical module coupling port (211) may be provided to protrude a predetermined length from the lower portion of the slide lower housing (210). Therefore, a user can slide the slide portion (200) forward or backward after gripping the optical module coupling port (211). For the user's easy gripping, the optical module coupling member (211) may be provided with a gripping portion (212). For example, the gripping portion (12) may be provided at the lower front end of the optical module coupling member (211). The gripping portion (212) may be provided with a material that can prevent slipping. For example, the gripping portion (212) may be provided with a rubber material.

[0109] A roller assembly through-hole (213) may be provided on the other side of the slide lower housing (210). The roller assembly (230) may be connected to the mount portion (100) by passing through the roller assembly through-hole (213). For example, the roller assembly (230) may have an upper portion coupled to the slide upper housing (220) and a lower portion exposed to the outside by passing through the roller assembly through-hole (213). At least a portion of the lower portion of the roller assembly (230) exposed to the outside may be inserted and connected to the mount portion (100). The slide lower housing (210) may include at least one first rigidity reinforcing rib (214). The first rigidity reinforcing rib (214) may be provided to improve the mechanical rigidity of the slide lower housing (210) and may be provided to protrude from one surface of the slide lower housing (210). The first stiffness reinforcing rib (214) may be provided in multiple numbers spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal or transverse direction of the slide lower housing (210). The arrangement configuration of the first stiffness reinforcing rib (214) is not limited thereto, and may be provided at various locations of the slide lower housing (210) as long as it corresponds to a configuration capable of reinforcing the stiffness of the slide lower housing (210). In addition, the first stiffness reinforcing rib (214) may be provided integrally with the slide lower housing (210). In other words, the first stiffness reinforcing rib (214) may be injection-molded integrally with the slide lower housing (210). In addition, the first stiffness reinforcing rib (214) may be manufactured separately using a resin material, a metal material, or the like, and then coupled to the slide lower housing (210).

[0110] The slide upper housing (220) is a member that constitutes the upper portion of the slide part (200), and may be provided by including at least one of an injection molded material or a metal material. The slide upper housing (220) may be coupled to the upper surface of the slide lower housing (210). By coupling the slide upper housing (220) and the slide lower housing (210), the overall outer shape of the slide part (200) may be formed. An optical module (300), a flexible printed circuit board (322, see FIG. 19), and other electronic components may be placed in the inner space formed between the slide upper housing (220) and the slide lower housing (210). For example, the optical module (300) may be placed in front of the space formed between the slide upper housing (220) and the slide lower housing (210), and the flexible printed circuit board (322) may be provided such that one end is connected to the optical module (300) and the other end passes through the roller assembly through hole (213) across the inner space.

[0111] The slide upper housing (220) may include at least one second stiffness reinforcing rib (221). The second stiffness reinforcing rib (221) may be provided to improve the mechanical rigidity of the slide upper housing (220) and may be provided to protrude from one surface of the slide upper housing (220). A plurality of second stiffness reinforcing ribs (221) may be provided to be spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal direction or the width direction of the slide upper housing (220). In addition, the second stiffness reinforcing rib (221) may be provided integrally with the slide upper housing (220). In other words, the second stiffness reinforcing rib (221) may be injection-molded integrally with the slide upper housing (220). In addition, the second stiffness reinforcing rib (221) may be manufactured separately using a resin material, a metal material, or the like and then coupled to the slide upper housing (220).

[0112] A roller assembly (230) may be coupled to the slide upper housing (220). For example, the roller assembly (230) may be coupled to the bottom surface of the slide upper housing (220). The roller assembly (230) may connect the slide upper housing (220) and the mount portion (100). For example, one side of the roller assembly (230) may be coupled to the slide upper housing (220), and the other side may pass through the slide lower housing (210) and be connected to the slide rail (150) of the mount portion (100). The roller assembly (230) may slide forward and backward along the slide rail (150). As the roller assembly (230) slides, the entire slide portion (200) may slide on the mount portion (100) (see FIG. 20).

[0113] Referring to FIG. 16, the roller assembly (230) may include, for example, a joining panel (231), a side panel (232), and a roller (233).

[0114] The joining panel (231) can be joined to the slide upper housing (220). For example, at least one fastening hole (231a) can be formed in the joining panel (231), and a separate fastening member, such as a screw, can pass through the fastening hole (231a) and be joined to the slide upper housing (220). The method of joining the joining panel (231) to the slide upper housing (220) is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be changed to various commonly used methods.

[0115] The side panel (232) may be provided on both sides of the width direction of the joining panel (231). For example, the side panel (232) may be provided by bending downwards on both sides of the width direction of the joining panel (231). In addition, the side panel (232) may be manufactured separately and may be joined to both sides of the width direction of the joining panel (231) by welding or the like. The lower end of the side panel (232) may be formed to extend rearward in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, the side panel (232) may be provided in an 'L' shape overall. By forming the lower end of the side panel (232) to extend rearward in the longitudinal direction, the joining force between the roller assembly (230) and the slide rail (150) may be improved.

[0116] The side panel (232) may be provided with at least one shaft (232a). The shaft (232a) may be provided to protrude outwardly in the width direction of the side panel (232). A roller (233) may be rotatably connected to the shaft (232a). For smooth rotation of the roller (233), at least one washer may be provided between the shaft (232a) and the roller (233).

[0117] The roller (233) may be connected to the slide rail (150). The roller (233) may include, for example, at least one first roller part (233a) provided on the lower side of the side panel (232) and arranged on the inside of the slide rail (150), and a second roller part (233b) provided on the upper side of the side panel (232) and arranged on the upper side of the slide rail (150). A plurality of first roller parts (233a) and second roller parts (233b) may be provided spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal direction of the side panel (232).

[0118] The first roller part (233a) may be arranged on the inside of the slide rail (150). For example, the first roller part (233a) may be arranged on the inside of the side part (152) of the slide rail (150). The second roller part (233b) may be arranged on the upper part of the slide rail (150). For example, the second roller part (233b) may be arranged on the upper part of the side part (152) of the slide rail (150). By arranging the first roller part (233a) and the second roller part (233b) on the inside and upper part of the side part (152) of the slide rail (150), respectively, when the roller assembly (230) slides along the slide rail (150), the roller assembly (230) may be stably supported on the slide rail (150).

[0119] A roller assembly positioning member (233c) may be provided on the lower part of the side panel (232) to press the inner surface of the slide rail (150), that is, the inner side of the side part (152), and to press the inner surface of the slide rail (150). The roller assembly positioning member (233c) may be provided as, for example, a ball plunger. Meanwhile, at least one positioning hole (152a) may be formed in the side part (152) (see FIG. 10). For example, the positioning hole (152a) may be provided at the front and rear ends of the side part (152). The positioning hole (152a) may be provided to determine the position of the roller assembly (230). In other words, when the roller assembly (230) slides and the roller assembly positioning member (233c) is inserted into the positioning hole (152a), the position of the roller assembly (230) may be determined. Afterwards, when a predetermined external force is applied to the roller assembly (230), the roller assembly positioning member (233c) can be separated from the positioning hole (152a) and become capable of sliding movement.

[0120] Referring to Fig. 17, the connection structure of the roller assembly (230) and the mount portion (100) will be described. Referring to Fig. 17, the slide rail (150) can be exposed to the outside through the slide slit (141). At this time, a gap of a predetermined distance can be formed between the upper inner end of the side part (152) of the slide rail (150) and the upper mount housing (140). The roller assembly (230) can be inserted into the slide rail (150) from the front of the upper mount housing (140) so that the side panel (232) is arranged in the gap. At this time, the roller assembly (230) can be inserted so that the first roller part (233a) is arranged on the inner side of the side part (152) and the second roller part (233b) is arranged on the upper side of the side part (152).

[0121] When the roller assembly (230) is inserted into the slide rail (150), a stopper (153) may be coupled to the front end of the slide rail (1520). The stopper (153) may prevent the roller assembly (230) from moving forward from the slide rail (150). In addition, a buffer member (153a) may be provided on one side of the stopper (153) facing the slide rail (150) to alleviate impact when colliding with the roller assembly (230).

[0122] After the stopper (153) is coupled, a covering member (133) can be detachably coupled to the bottom surface of the mount lower housing (130). The covering member (133) can prevent mechanisms such as the stopper and other electronic components arranged on the inside of the mount lower housing (130) from being exposed to the outside.

[0123]

[0124] Fig. 18 (a) is a schematic perspective view of an optical module, and Fig. 18 (b) is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along line D-D' of Fig. 18 (a).

[0125] Referring to FIG. 18, an optical module (300) may be provided to irradiate light onto a user's scalp or face. The optical module (300) may irradiate a low-power laser to the user by irradiating light of a specific wavelength onto the scalp or face, thereby promoting metabolism in the relevant area and activating tissue functions.

[0126] The optical module (300) may include a diffuser plate (310), a light-emitting module (320), and a light-emitting module cover (330).

[0127] The diffuser plate (310) can be coupled to the slide lower housing (210). The bottom surface of the diffuser plate (310) can be exposed to the outside by penetrating the slide lower housing (210). In other words, when the diffuser plate (310) is coupled to the slide lower housing (210), the bottom surface of the diffuser plate (310) can be exposed to the outside through the optical module coupling port (211) of the slide lower housing (210). The diffuser plate (310) can evenly distribute light generated from the light-emitting element and eliminate hot spots. The bottom surface of the diffuser plate (310) can include an inclined surface (311) that is provided to slope upward from the edge of the diffuser plate (310) toward the inner center of the diffuser plate (310). Therefore, the diffuser plate (310) can be provided in a shape in which the center is concave.

[0128] The light-emitting module (320) may include at least one light-emitting element (not shown) and a printed circuit board (321). The light-emitting element may be, for example, a light-emitting diode (LED). When the light-emitting element is a light-emitting diode, the light-emitting diode may be provided in combination with a red light-emitting diode that emits red light and a blue light-emitting diode that emits blue light.

[0129] Referring to FIG. 19, the printed circuit board (321) can be electrically connected to the control unit through the flexible printed circuit board (322). The flexible printed circuit board (322) can have one end connected to the printed circuit board (321) and can be arranged to penetrate the inner space of the slide unit (200), the roller assembly through-hole (213), and the mount unit (100). For example, the flexible printed circuit board (322) can have one end connected to the printed circuit board (321) and the other end penetrate the inner space of the slide unit (200) and the roller assembly through-hole (213) and be inserted into the through-hole (143a, see FIG. 17) of the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143). The other end of the flexible printed circuit board (322) inserted into the through hole (143a) can pass through the flexible printed circuit board receiving space (143b, see FIG. 17) and the connection bracket joint (111) inside the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) and ultimately be connected to the control unit. The flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) can prevent the flexible printed circuit board (322) from being twisted when the slide unit (200) slides along the slide rail (150). In other words, the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143) can prevent the flexible printed circuit board (322) from being twisted by providing a flexible printed circuit board receiving space (143b) into which the flexible printed circuit board (322) can be inserted or extracted when the slide unit (200) slides. That is, when the slide unit (200) slides to the rear, the flexible printed circuit board (322) can be introduced into the flexible printed circuit board receiving space (143b), and when the slide unit (200) slides to the front, the flexible printed circuit board (322) can be withdrawn out of the flexible printed circuit board receiving space (143b). In addition, by the upwardly protruding separation prevention protrusions on both sides of the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover (143), the flexible printed circuit board can be stably introduced / withdrawn through the receiving space (143b) between the separation prevention protrusions without detaching from the flexible printed circuit board receiving cover.

[0130] The light emitting module (320) can irradiate light of various wavelengths corresponding to the position of the slide unit (200). For example, when the slide unit (200) is positioned behind the mount unit (100) and irradiates light to the user's scalp (scalp care mode), the light emitting module (320) can irradiate light of a wavelength band effective for scalp care or hair loss prevention to the user's scalp. In addition, when the slide unit (200) slides forward and is positioned in front of the mount unit (100) (facial care mode), the light emitting module (320) can irradiate light of a wavelength band effective for whitening or wrinkle improvement to the user's face. For example, the light emitting module (320) can selectively irradiate light of a wavelength band of 420 to 480 nm, 630 to 690 nm, or 850 to 940 nm to the user's scalp or face.

[0131] The light emitting module cover (330) can be coupled to the diffuser plate (310). The light emitting module cover (330) can prevent the tube module (320) from being contaminated with foreign substances or damaged by external impact. At least one heat dissipation slit (331) can be formed in the light emitting module cover (330).

The second position may be the rear side of the massage device (1000), as illustrated in Fig. 22.

[0136] Referring to the drawings, a support member (1500) according to an embodiment of the present invention is rotatably coupled to the upper end of a body massage unit (1100) and can swing from a first position supporting the user's upper body to one side of the massage device (1000) and rotate to a second position located outside the body massage unit (1100), and the opposite operation is possible. The second position may be the rear side of the massage device (1000) as illustrated in FIG. 22.

[0140] The head cushion (1610) is positioned on the upper part of the backrest of the body massage part (1100). The backrest is the part of the body massage part (1100) that supports the user's back, and the user's head comes into contact with the upper part of the backrest. In the description of the embodiment of the present invention, the backrest refers to the part that supports the user's back and head as a whole, and the upper part of the backrest supports the head.

[0141] The head cushion (1610) is formed to support the user's head, including a head support portion (1611) that directly corresponds to the head portion when the user sits on the massage device (1000). The head support portion (1611) of the head cushion (1610) is formed with a neck rest (1612) protruding so as to contact the user's neck portion and provide support.

[0142] The sub cushion (1630) is placed on the backrest of the body massage unit (1100). The head cushion (1610) is coupled to the front of the sub cushion (1630) and is supported by the sub cushion (1630). According to the swing-type support member (1600) according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the head cushion (1610) is fixed to and integrated with the sub cushion (1630). The sub cushion (1630) may be a seat cushion that supports the back of the user.

[0143] The swing strap (1620) extends to the upper portion of the sub cushion (1630) and has a rotational coupling portion (1625) at an end thereof. The rotational coupling portion (1625) is rotatably coupled to the upper portion of the body massage unit (1100).

The rotational coupling portion (1625) of the swing strap (1620) is rotatably coupled to the upper coupling portion formed at the upper portion of the body massage unit (1100).

[0144] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the upper coupling portion of the body massage unit (1100) may be the connecting bracket coupling portion (111) illustrated in FIG. 7. Referring to FIG. 7, the connecting bracket coupling portion (111) is formed in a circular shape and is formed to protrude from the body part (110) coupled to the body massage unit (1100). A rotation coupling portion (1625) in the form of a through-hole of the swing strap (1620) is rotatably coupled by being fitted into the outer circumferential surface of the connecting bracket coupling portion (111). By the rotation coupling portion (1625), the swing strap (1620) can rotate while being supported by the connecting bracket coupling portion (111). According to an embodiment of the present invention, the upper coupling portion of the body massage unit (1100) is not limited to the connecting bracket coupling portion (111). That is, it includes various parts formed at the upper end of the body massage unit (1100) and to which the rotation coupling portion is rotatably coupled. The method of rotatably connecting the rotational joint (1625) of the swing strap (1620) to the body massage part (1100) of the massage device (1000) can be equally applied to the swing-type support member of another embodiment described later.

[0145] According to the swing-type support member (1600) according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the support member can be positioned at the upper part of the backrest to support the user's head or positioned at the rear side of the massage device in a manner that the support member as a whole is rotated between the first position and the second position.

[0146] Referring to FIG. 24, a swing-type support member (1700) according to a second embodiment of the support member of the present invention includes a head cushion (1710), a swing strap (1720), and a sub cushion (1730).

[0147] The head cushion (1710) includes a head support (1711) and a position adjustment strap (1715).

[0148] The head support part (1711) is formed to support the user's head as a part that directly corresponds to the head when the user sits on the massage device (1000), and the neck support part (1712) is formed to protrude to provide support by contacting the neck part.

[0149] The position adjustment strap (1715) is a strap that is connected to the head support (1711) and extends upward, and is formed so that the position of the head support (1711) can be adjusted using the strap ring (1722) of the swing strap (1720).

[0150] The swing strap (1720) is positioned on the rear side of the head cushion (1710), and the head cushion (1710) is connected so that its position can be adjusted.

[0151] The swing strap (1720) has a strap loop (1722) in the form of a belt into which a position adjustment strap (1715) of a head cushion (1710) is inserted. The end of the position adjustment strap (1715) is inserted into the inside of the strap loop (1722) so that the position of the end is adjusted up and down, thereby adjusting the position of the head support (1711) of the head cushion (1710). An attachment means such as Velcro is provided at the end of the position adjustment strap (1715) so that it can be detachably attached to the rear of the head support (1711).

[0152] The swing strip (1720) may have a strap lower extension (1728) that extends downward and is positioned at the rear of the head support portion (1711) of the head cushion (1710). The strap lower extension (1728) is positioned between the sub cushion (1730) and the head support portion (1721) to support the head support portion (1721).

[0153] The swing strap (1720) extends upward and has a rotational coupling portion (1725) at the upper end. The rotational coupling portion (1725) may be formed as a through hole that penetrates the swing strap (1720) and is rotatably fitted to the upper coupling portion of the body massage unit (1100). The rotational coupling portion (1725) is rotatably coupled to the upper coupling portion of the body massage unit (1100). Therefore, the swing strap (1720) is selectively positionally movable between a first position and a second position while being coupled to the head cushion (1710).

[0154] A sub cushion (1730) is arranged on the back of the swing strap (1720). The sub cushion (1730) is arranged on the backrest of the body massage unit (1100) and includes a sub cushion sheet (1731) that supports the head cushion (1710). In addition, the sub cushion (1730) includes an attachment part (1732) that is connected to the upper portion of the sub cushion sheet (1731) and detachably connects the sub cushion (1730). By the attachment part (1732), the sub cushion (1730) can be attached to the backrest of the swing strap (1720) or detachably attached to the backrest of the body massage unit (1100). The attachment part (1732) may be formed of a Velcro type or the like, and the Velcro attachment part may be formed corresponding to the portion to which the attachment part (1732) is attached.

[0155] The sub-cushion (1730) is formed to buffer the massage vibrations coming from the massage device (1000). Therefore, users who dislike strong massage sensations can use the device with the sub-cushion (1730) placed on the backrest, and users who prefer strong massage sensations can use the device without the sub-cushion (1730).

[0156] According to a second embodiment of the present invention, by rotating the swing strap (1720) coupled with the head cushion (1710) between a first position and a second position, the head cushion (1710) can be positioned on the upper portion of the backrest of the body massage unit to support the user's head in the first position, and can be positioned on the outside of the massage device (1000) in the second position. At this time, the sub cushion (1730) is attached to the rear of the swing strap (1720) and can move to the second position together with the swing strap (1720). In addition, the sub cushion (1730) can be used by being separated from the swing strap (1720) and attached to the backrest of the body massage unit (1100). That is, only the sub cushion (1730) can be maintained in a state where it is positioned at the first position. In addition, the sub cushion (1730) can be used in a separated and removed state.

[0157] FIG. 25 is a modified example of a swing-type support member (1700) according to a second embodiment of the present invention, in which, compared to FIG. 24, the swing strap (1720) is formed in a short shape without a strap lower extension (1728). The swing strap (1720) may be a long shape having a strap lower extension (1728) arranged between a head cushion (1710) and a sub cushion (1730), as shown in FIG. 24, or a short shape without a strap lower extension (1728), as shown in FIG. 25, and are optionally used.

[0158] Referring to FIG. 26, a swing-type support member (1800) according to a third embodiment of the present invention includes a head cushion (1810), a swing strap (1820), and a sub cushion (1830).

[0159] The head cushion (1810) and the swing strap (1820) of the swing-type support member (1800) according to the third embodiment of the present invention may be formed identically or similarly to the head cushion (1710) and the swing strap (1720) of the swing-type support member (1700) according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

[0160] The head cushion (1810) includes a head support portion (1811) having a neck support (1812) and a position adjustment strap (1815). The position adjustment strap (1815) is configured to be able to adjust the position of the head support portion (1811) by being inserted into a strap loop portion (1822) of a swing strap (1820) and having a length that is adjusted.

[0161] The swing strap (1820) extends upward and has a rotational coupling portion (1825) formed at the upper end. The rotational coupling portion (1825) may be formed as a through hole that penetrates the swing strap (1820) and is rotatably fitted into the upper coupling portion of the body massage unit (1100). The rotational coupling portion (1825) is rotatably coupled to the upper coupling opening of the body massage unit (1100). Therefore, the swing strap (1820) is selectively positionally movable between a first position and a second position while being coupled to the head cushion (1810).

[0162] According to a swing-type support member (1800) according to a third embodiment of the present invention, a sub-cushion (1830) is provided with a sub-cushion sheet (1831) that is arranged on the backrest of the body massage part and supports the head cushion (1810) and a swing strap part (1834) that extends to the upper portion of the sub-cushion sheet (1831). The swing strap part (1834) includes a second rotational coupling part (1835) that is rotatably coupled to an upper coupling part of the body massage part (1100), for example, a coupling part of a body part. The second rotational coupling part (1835) may be formed as a through hole that penetrates the swing strap part (1834) and is rotatably fitted into the upper coupling part of the body massage part (1100). Therefore, the sub-cushion (1830) can rotate independently with respect to the swing strap part (1820) between a first position and a second position.

[0163] According to a third embodiment of the present invention, the head cushion (1810) can be used in a state where it is positioned on the user's head or positioned outside the massage device (1000) by rotating the swing strap (1820) coupled to the head cushion (1810) between a first position and a second position. In addition, the sub cushion (1830) can be positioned on the backrest or positioned outside the massage device (100) by independently rotating the sub cushion (1830) between the first position and the second position using the swing strap portion (1834).

[0164] FIG. 27 is a modified example of a swing-type support member (1800) according to a third embodiment of the present invention, in which, compared to FIG. 26, the swing strap (1820) is formed in a short shape without a strap lower extension (1828). The swing strap (1820) may be a long shape having a strap lower extension (1828) positioned between a head cushion (1810) and a sub cushion (1830), as shown in FIG. 26, or a short shape without a strap lower extension (1828), as shown in FIG. 27, and are optionally used.

[0165] While the technical concepts of the present invention have been described above, along with the accompanying drawings, this merely exemplifies preferred embodiments of the invention and does not limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, it is readily apparent that anyone skilled in the art will be able to make various modifications and imitations without departing from the scope of the technical concepts of the present invention.

[0166] Furthermore, the massage device configuration and functions of this specification can be extended and applied to various (wearable) healthcare devices that can provide healthcare functions (e.g., massage / massage functions, bio-signal measurement functions, etc.). Accordingly, it goes without saying that the "massage device" of this specification can be replaced with the term "(wearable) healthcare device."
