Description

Portable far infrared light wave therapy device

[0001] The utility model relates to a traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy device, in particular to a far-infrared light wave physiotherapy device which is easy to carry.

[0002] Far infrared radiation is a wavelength in the solar spectrum that lies beyond the visible red wavelength. Its key properties include thermal and resonance effects, and its wavelength ranges from 0.76 microns to 1000 microns. Far infrared radiation has a wide range of applications in medicine, military, communications, and detection.

[0003] Far infrared therapy is a method of achieving therapeutic effects through far infrared irradiation, which can promote blood circulation, relieve pain, and have anti-inflammatory effects.

[0004] The effects of far infrared therapy mainly include the following aspects:

[0005] 1. Promote blood circulation: Far infrared rays can penetrate deep into the skin, accelerate blood circulation, improve tissue oxygen supply, and facilitate tissue repair and regeneration.

[0006] 2. Relieve pain: Far infrared rays can stimulate nerve endings, speed up nerve conduction in the painful area, and promote the secretion of analgesic substances such as endorphins to relieve pain.

[0007] 3. Anti-inflammatory: Far infrared rays can promote the activity of white blood cells, enhance the body's immunity, inhibit the reproduction of bacteria and viruses, and relieve inflammation.

[0008] 4. Improve skin condition: Far infrared rays can promote the metabolism of skin cells, enhance skin elasticity and improve skin condition.

[0009] Existing far-infrared therapy devices generally use relatively high-power far-infrared therapy bulbs, which are installed on the far-infrared therapy device. After turning it on, it is directed towards the area requiring therapy to irradiate the far-infrared rays. This traditional far-infrared therapy device is relatively bulky and inconvenient to use, and it needs to be connected to the mains for power. In addition to traditional far-infrared therapy devices, there are also forms that combine far-infrared therapy with massage products on the market, such as installing far-infrared therapy devices on massage chairs or massagers. However, although the above designs do not use traditional far-infrared therapy bulbs, but instead use far-infrared LEDs, the accompanying products usually still require mains power to operate, making them not convenient to carry.

[0010] In response to the above-mentioned deficiencies in the existing technology, the present invention provides a portable far-infrared light wave therapy device, which users can conveniently bind to the therapy area and is powered by a mobile power supply, so that the user can conveniently carry it with them and perform far-infrared light wave therapy at any time.

[0011] The utility model is realized by the following technical means:

[0012] A portable far-infrared light wave therapy device includes a portable main body with an infrared light wave emitting device inside; the portable main body is provided with a binding device to fix the portable main body at a therapy position, and the light-emitting surface of the infrared light wave emitting device is in contact with the therapy position; the infrared light wave emitting device is connected to a mobile power supply for power supply.

[0013] Preferably, the binding device is an elastic band, and both ends of the elastic band are respectively connected to the portable body.

[0014] Preferably, the elastic strap is further provided with a movable buckle for adjusting the length of the elastic strap.

[0015] Preferably, the portable body is provided with a back clip for fixing the mobile power supply, the back clip is provided with an opening, and the mobile power supply is placed into the back clip through the opening.

[0016] Preferably, a fixing belt is provided at the opening of the back clip to prevent the mobile power supply from falling out of the back clip.

[0017] Preferably, the portable main body is composed of a composite of multiple layers of materials, which include a skin-friendly layer in contact with the therapy position, an infrared light wave emitting layer and an insulating heat dissipation layer in sequence. A far-infrared light wave emitting device is arranged in the far-infrared light wave emitting layer, which is a far-infrared light wave emitting light strip, and the back of the light strip is glued to the insulating heat dissipation layer for fixation.

[0018] Preferably, a scattering layer for scattering the far-infrared light waves is provided between the far-infrared light wave generating layer and the skin-friendly layer.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model include a far-infrared light wave emitting device installed within the portable body. This device typically uses a relatively energy-efficient far-infrared LED as its light source, and can therefore be powered directly by a mobile power supply. To facilitate convenient attachment of the portable body to various parts of the human body, such as arms and legs, the portable body is conveniently secured to the corresponding treatment area via a binding device. Users can conveniently carry this portable far-infrared light wave therapy device with them or attach it directly to the treatment area for convenient far-infrared light therapy sessions.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1

[0021] It is a structural diagram of the present utility model. Figure 2

[0022] It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model from another perspective. Figure 3

[0023] It is a cross-sectional view of the utility model.

[0024] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the portable far-infrared light wave therapy device includes a portable main body 1, which is provided with a far-infrared light wave emitting device; the portable main body 1 is provided with a binding device to fix the portable main body 1 at the therapy position, and the light-emitting surface of the far-infrared light wave emitting device is in contact with the therapy position; the far-infrared light wave emitting device is connected to a mobile power supply 5 for power supply. The far-infrared light wave emitting device provided in the portable main body 1 generally adopts a more energy-saving far-infrared LED as a light source, so it can be directly powered by a mobile power supply 5. In order to facilitate the portable main body 1 to be conveniently fixed to various parts of the human body, such as arms, legs, etc., the portable main body 1 is conveniently fixed to the corresponding therapy position through a binding device for therapy operation. Users can conveniently carry this portable far-infrared light wave therapy device with them or directly fix it to the therapy position to conveniently complete the far-infrared light therapy course.

[0025] Considering that the thickness of the arms and legs varies greatly from person to person, the physical therapy device needs to be able to adapt to different outer diameters and be well fixed to the physical therapy area. The binding device uses an elastic band 2, the two ends of which are connected to the portable body 1. Because the length of the elastic band 2 can be expanded and contracted according to the outer diameter of the bound object, and the friction between the elastic band 2 and the physical therapy area is increased by contraction, the portable body 1 and the physical therapy area are well fixed.

[0026] In addition, in order to further adjust the length of the elastic strap 2 to better adapt to the binding needs of different positions, the elastic strap 2 is also provided with a movable buckle 3 for adjusting the length of the elastic strap 2, so that the user can conveniently adjust the elastic strap 2 through the movable buckle 3.

[0027] To facilitate integration of the power bank 5 with the portable body 1, the portable body 1 is provided with a back clip 4 for securing the power bank 5. The back clip 4 has an opening through which the power bank 5 is inserted. To prevent the power bank 5 from slipping out of the back clip 4, a securing strap 6 is provided at the opening of the back clip 4 to prevent the power bank 5 from falling out. The securing strap 6 is also made of an elastic material. First, pull the securing strap 6 apart to allow the power bank 5 to be inserted into the back clip 4. Then, release the securing strap 6. The elastic action of the securing strap 6 allows the power bank 5 to recover and secure the position of the power bank 5 at the opening of the back clip 4 to prevent it from slipping out. Remove the power bank 5 and pull the securing strap apart to remove the power bank 5 from the back clip 4.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3, the portable body 1 is made of a composite of multiple layers of material, which includes, in sequence, a skin-friendly layer 7 that contacts the treatment area, a far-infrared light wave emitting layer 8, and an insulating heat dissipation layer 9. A far-infrared light wave emitting device is provided within the far-infrared light wave emitting layer 8, which is a light strip that emits far-infrared light waves. The skin-friendly layer 7, which contacts the treatment area, is usually made of a silicone lamp material, making the material softer and increasing wearing comfort. Far-infrared light wave light strips are generally made of far-infrared LEDs. Since the light emission of LEDs is relatively concentrated, the far-infrared rays emitted by them need to be scattered so that they can cover a larger area. To this end, a scattering layer 10 is provided between the far-infrared light wave generating layer and the skin-friendly layer 7 to scatter the far-infrared light waves. The insulating heat dissipation layer 9 is intended to prevent the far-infrared LEDs from directly contacting the outside world to protect them. At the same time, the heat emitted by them can be conducted to the insulating heat dissipation layer 9 for heat dissipation. A protective layer 11 is usually provided outside the insulating heat dissipation layer 9, and the back clip 4 is provided outside the protective layer 11.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the aforementioned embodiments. As long as the technical effects of the present invention are achieved by the same means, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included within the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Within the scope of protection of the present invention, its technical solutions and / or implementation methods may be modified and varied in various ways.
