[0002] The present application claims priority to and the benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 202411281728.6 and 202411281481.8, filed on September 12, 2024, in the China National Intellectual Property Office, and which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of personal care, in particular to an energy output control method and device of an epilator, an epilator and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0004] With the rapid development of the personal care field and electronic technology, in order to meet the growing personalized personal care needs of users, a series of high-tech personal care devices have emerged in the market, among which the epilator is one of the representative products. Through advanced energy output technology, the epilator can effectively remove excess hair and restore smooth and delicate skin. At present, the epilator may cause discomfort to the user or the epilation effect may not meet the user's expectations when performing epilation, affecting the user's experience. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application discloses an energy output control method and device of an epilator, an epilator and a storage medium, which can reduce the discomfort caused by the energy output of the epilator to the user and improve the epilation effect of the epilator, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0006] The present application discloses an energy output control method of an epilator, the epilator comprising a care module; the method comprising:

[0007] determining an energy output parameter corresponding to the care module;

[0008] controlling the care module to output a combined energy at a current skin position according to the energy output parameter, the combined energy comprising a plurality of sub-energies, and there being a time interval between two adjacent sub-energies.

[0009] In the embodiment of the present application, the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is determined, and the care module is controlled to output a combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter, the combined energy including a plurality of sub-energies, and there being a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies. The hair removal instrument can output a plurality of sub-energies at one skin position interval, which can avoid the case of skin discomfort or damage caused by too large energy output of the hair removal instrument at one time, can reduce the discomfort of the user caused by the energy output of the hair removal instrument, and the output of a plurality of sub-energies can improve the hair removal effect of the hair removal instrument, providing the user with more accurate and comfortable use experience.

[0010] As an optional implementation, the energy output parameter includes at least one of the number of sub-energies included in the combined energy, the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy, and the duration of continuous output corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy.

[0011] In this implementation, the energy output parameter can include a plurality of specific parameters to flexibly control the output of the sub-energy, and the control accuracy can be improved by adjusting these parameters, thereby realizing more accurate energy output.

[0012] As an optional implementation, the combined energy includes a first part of sub-energies and a second part of sub-energies, and the output time of the second part of sub-energies is later than the output time of the first part of sub-energies.

[0013] The energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the first part of sub-energies; and / or,

[0014] The duration of continuous output corresponding to each sub-energy included in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the duration of continuous output corresponding to each sub-energy included in the first part of sub-energies.

[0015] In this implementation, the sub-energies included in the combined energy are divided into two parts, the second part of sub-energies being different from the first part of sub-energies, realizing multi-level energy output, and the energy intensity of the second part of sub-energies being greater than that of the first part of sub-energies, or the duration of continuous output of the second part of sub-energies being greater than that of the first part of sub-energies. The first part of sub-energies with smaller energy intensity or shorter duration of continuous output is used to improve the activity of the current position skin, avoiding skin sensitivity, and ensuring the safety and comfort of the user, and the second part of sub-energies with greater energy intensity or longer duration of continuous output is used to realize the effect of clean hair removal.

[0016] As an optional implementation, the combined energy includes N sub-energies; in the case that the N is an even number greater than 1, the first part of sub-energies includes the first N / 2 sub-energies in the combined energy; the second part of sub-energies includes the last N / 2 sub-energies in the combined energy; or,

[0017] in the case that the N is an odd number greater than 1, the first part of sub-energies includes the first X sub-energies in the combined energy, and the second part of sub-energies includes the last Y sub-energies in the combined energy.

[0018] wherein the X is a value of N / 2 rounded down, and the Y is a value of N / 2 rounded up; or, the X is a value of N / 2 rounded up, and the Y is a value of N / 2 rounded down.

[0019] In this implementation, by uniformly distributing the sub-energies of the combined energy to the two parts of sub-energies, the load balancing and parameter processing in the sub-energy output process can be effectively realized, and the overall efficiency is improved. Moreover, by rounding up or rounding down the middle sub-energies to the second part of sub-energies or the first part of sub-energies, when the number of sub-energies contained in the combined energy is odd, the sub-energies contained in the combined energy can also be uniformly distributed to realize the load balancing and parameter processing in the sub-energy output process.

[0020] As an optional implementation, the combined energy includes N sub-energies, the first part of sub-energies includes the first sub-energy to the N-1th sub-energy of the combined energy, and the second part of sub-energies includes the Nth sub-energy of the combined energy.

[0021] In this implementation, by accumulating the first N-1 sub-energies and outputting the Nth sub-energy as a separate second part, the desired hair removal effect of the user can be ensured in the last stage of the combined energy, and the user experience is improved.

[0022] As an optional implementation, the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies is equal; or,

[0023] There are at least two sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies, and each sub-energy corresponds to a different energy intensity.

[0024] In this embodiment, each sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies corresponds to the same energy intensity, which can simplify the control logic, avoid the output of sub-energies being too complex, be beneficial to the skin adaptation, provide stable hair removal for the user, and reduce the risk of skin discomfort or damage caused by uneven energy distribution; or, at least two sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies correspond to different energy intensities, which can flexibly adjust the energy intensity of each sub-energy according to the actual hair removal needs of the user, and improve the hair removal effect.

[0025] As an optional embodiment, the sum of the energy intensities corresponding to the second part of sub-energies is greater than the sum of the energy intensities corresponding to the first part of sub-energies; and / or,

[0026] The energy output frequency corresponding to the first part of sub-energies is greater than the energy output frequency corresponding to the second part of sub-energies; and / or,

[0027] As an optional embodiment, the last time interval before the last sub-energy of the second part of sub-energies is greater than or equal to the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the combined energy; and / or,

[0028] The mean of each time interval included in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the mean of each time interval included in the first part of sub-energies; and / or,

[0029] The time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies.

[0030] In this embodiment, the sum of the energy intensities of the second part of sub-energies is higher, which can more effectively destroy the hair follicle structure in the last stage of the combined energy and promote the shedding of hair, and is beneficial to achieving the ideal hair removal effect; and the energy intensity ratio of the two parts of sub-energies can be adjusted to more flexibly adapt to the needs of different skin types. Moreover, the output of the multiple sub-energies included in the first part of sub-energies is faster, which can allow the skin to quickly adapt, and then the multiple sub-energies included in the second part of sub-energies can achieve the hair removal effect, thereby improving the hair removal efficiency of the hair removal instrument. Moreover, since each sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is stronger than each sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies, a time interval greater than that of the first part of sub-energies is set in the second part of sub-energies, which can provide the skin with a certain time for recovery and adaptation, thereby reducing the discomfort or damage to the skin that may be caused by the energy output of the first part of sub-energies, and providing the user with a more comfortable hair removal experience.

[0031] As an optional implementation, the hair removal device comprises a power supply module and an energy storage module; before the controlling the treatment module to output the combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter, the method further comprises:

[0034] During the process of the treatment module outputting the combined energy, in the time interval between two adjacent sub-energies, the power supply module is controlled to charge the energy storage module.

[0035] As an optional implementation, the method further comprises:

[0036] During the process of the treatment module outputting the combined energy, in the last time interval before the treatment module outputs the last sub-energy, the power supply module is controlled to charge the energy storage module.

[0037] In this implementation, the energy is supplemented in the last time interval before the last sub-energy to supplement the energy consumed by the output of the previous multiple sub-energies, so as to provide sufficient electricity for the smooth output of the last sub-energy.

[0038] As an optional implementation, the determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module comprises:

[0039] obtaining the working state corresponding to the hair removal device; the working state comprises a working gear and / or a working mode;

[0040] determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module according to the working state.

[0041] In this implementation, the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module is determined according to the working gear and / or the working mode of the hair removal device, so that the treatment module of the hair removal device can accurately output specific combined energy according to the user selection and the working state, meet the different hair removal needs of the user, and make the hair removal device more intelligent.

[0042] As an optional implementation, in different working states, the number of sub-energies contained in the combined energy is different; and / or,

[0043] In different working states, the energy intensity corresponding to the last sub-energy contained in the combined energy is different; and / or,

[0044] In different working states, the duration of the last sub-energy in the combined energy is different.

[0045] In different working states, the time interval between the last sub-energy and the previous sub-energy in the combined energy is different.

[0046] In this embodiment, the energy output parameters corresponding to different working states are different, and through the mutual cooperation between different energy output parameters, more hair removal options and more precise energy control are provided for users to adapt to the hair removal needs of different users and different skins.

[0047] As an optional embodiment, the hair removal instrument further comprises a skin detection module, and the determination of the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module comprises:

[0048] The current skin position where the care module is located is detected by the skin detection module to obtain a skin state corresponding to the current skin position;

[0049] According to the skin state, the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is determined.

[0050] In this embodiment, the energy output parameter determined according to the skin state of the current skin position can make the output combined energy more suitable for the skin state of the current skin position, thereby improving the intelligence of the hair removal instrument and improving the user experience.

[0051] As an optional embodiment, the skin state comprises skin color; and the relationship between the energy output parameter and the depth of the skin color satisfies one or more of the following conditions:

[0052] The shallower the skin color, the more the number of sub-energies in the combined energy;

[0053] The shallower the skin color, the greater the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy in the combined energy;

[0055] The shallower the skin color, the longer the duration of each sub-energy in the combined energy;

[0056] The shallower the skin color, the longer the duration of the last sub-energy in the combined energy.

[0057] In this embodiment, since different skin colors have different absorption levels of energy, the corresponding energy output parameter can be dynamically determined according to the depth of the skin color, so as to reduce the risk of skin discomfort or damage caused by the mismatch between the output energy and the skin color while achieving the effect of hair removal.

[0058] As an optional embodiment, the skin state includes skin temperature, and the energy output parameter is negatively correlated with the skin temperature.

[0059] In this embodiment, the skin temperature corresponding to the current skin position where the care module is located is negatively correlated with the energy output parameter, so that when the skin temperature is high, the energy output parameter is reduced to avoid the case that the skin is burned due to the high energy output by the hair removal instrument. When the skin temperature is low, the energy output parameter is increased to ensure that the care module can achieve the effect of precise hair removal.

[0060] As an optional embodiment, the hair removal instrument further includes a skin detection module; and the method further includes:

[0062] The energy output parameter corresponding to the combined energy is adjusted according to the real-time skin state.

[0063] In this embodiment, in the process of outputting the combined energy by the care module, the energy output parameter of the combined energy can be dynamically adjusted according to the real-time skin state to timely find any reaction of the current skin in the hair removal process, so as to timely adjust the energy output parameter and ensure that the energy output by the hair removal instrument can more effectively act on the hair follicles to improve the hair removal effect.

[0066] If it is detected by the position detection module that the current skin position of the care module moves from the first position to the second position, the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is re-executed.

[0067] In this embodiment, if the current skin position is depilated, if the treatment module does not move, the energy output is stopped; if the treatment module moves to a new position, the energy output parameters need to be determined again; repeated output of multiple combined energies at the same position is avoided, ensuring the continuity and accuracy of the depilation treatment, and avoiding the skin at the same position from being burned by pulses, thereby protecting the safety of the user's skin.

[0068] As an optional embodiment, the determining of the energy output parameters corresponding to the treatment module comprises: determining the energy output parameters corresponding to the treatment module if it is detected that the treatment module meets a preset output condition.

[0069] In this embodiment, the energy output parameters are obtained only when the mapping output condition is met, unnecessary energy output is avoided, energy consumption is reduced, and the operation efficiency of the depilation device is improved.

[0092] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.

[0093] It can be understood that the terms "first", "second", and the like used in the present application can be used herein to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the first element from another element. For example, without departing from the scope of the present application, a first partial sub-energy can be referred to as a second partial sub-energy, and similarly, a second partial sub-energy can be referred to as a first partial sub-energy. Both the first partial sub-energy and the second partial sub-energy are sub-energies containing at least one sub-energy, but they are different sub-energies.

[0094] The embodiments of the present application disclose an energy output control method and device of an epilator, an epilator and a storage medium, which can reduce the discomfort brought to the user by the energy output of the epilator, improve the epilation effect of the epilator, and improve the user's experience.

[0095] FIG. 1A is an application scenario diagram of an energy output control method of an epilator in an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1A, the energy output control method of the epilator can be applied to an epilator 100, which can include a care module 110 and a holding part 120. The care module 110 can be connected with the holding part 120, and the care module 110 can be used to contact the skin of a user and perform epilation treatment on the skin.

[0096] Optionally, the holding part 120 can include at least one button, wherein the button can be used by the user to trigger to switch the working mode of the epilator 100 and adjust the intensity, etc. The button can also be used by the user to trigger to control the power-on and power-off of the epilator 100.

[0097] Optionally, the epilator 100 can also include at least one indicator light for indicating the power-on of the epilator 100, the frequency gear, the working mode, etc. In addition, the epilator 100 can also be equipped with a loudspeaker, a motor, etc. according to the needs, which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0098] In actual scenarios, when the user uses the epilator 100, the user needs to operate according to the instructions of the epilator 100, usually adjusting the intensity of the epilator 100, pressing the trigger button after the epilator 100 is close to the skin, etc.

[0099] In some embodiments, the treatment module 110 can include an energy emitting assembly, which can output a combined energy including a plurality of sub-energies to act on the skin of the user to achieve a treatment operation on the skin.

[0100] Optionally, the combined energy output by the treatment module 110 can include, but is not limited to, one or more of intense pulsed light (IPL), ultrasound, radio frequency, electric current, laser, etc. Taking an example in which the combined energy output by the treatment module 110 includes a plurality of IPLs, the plurality of IPLs output by the treatment module 110 can perform non-invasive light irradiation on the normal epidermis, the IPLs can penetrate the skin to reach the root of the hair follicle, and can destroy the hair follicle structure to achieve the effect of hair removal, etc.

[0101] In the case where the treatment module 110 is capable of outputting a plurality of energies, the treatment module 110 can be provided with energy emitting assemblies corresponding to the plurality of energies respectively, so as to achieve the output of different energies. Different energies emitted by the treatment module 110 can achieve different effects of hair removal, and the user can flexibly select the type of the combined energy output by the treatment module 110 according to the skin and hair follicle structure of the user.

[0102] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can further include a skin detection module, which can be used to detect the skin state corresponding to the current skin position where the treatment module 110 is located.

[0103] Optionally, the skin detection module can include one or more of a camera, a pigment analyzer, a polarized light tester, a temperature sensor, and an optical sensor, etc. The skin detection module can be used to detect one or more of the skin information such as the skin temperature, the skin color, and the ultraviolet sensitivity of the skin corresponding to the current skin position where the treatment module 110 is located.

[0104] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can further include a power module, which is used to provide an energy source for the power module.

[0105] Optionally, the hair removal device 100 can externally connect the power module through a power adapter or a USB interface, or internally connect a rechargeable battery (such as a lithium battery or a nickel-hydrogen battery, etc.) as the power module.

[0106] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can further include an energy storage module, which is used to obtain electric energy from the power module and store the energy, so that the treatment module 110 performs energy output based on the electric quantity in the energy storage module.

[0107] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can further include a position detection module, which can be used to determine whether the current skin position of the treatment module 110 is moved from a first position to a second position, wherein the first position and the second position are different skin positions.

[0108] Optionally, the position detection module can include one or more of a camera, an acceleration sensor, a laser ranging sensor, a speed sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, a photoelectric sensor, an optical flow sensor, etc. The position detection module can be used to detect one or more of the movement information of the hair removal device 100, such as the movement distance, the movement direction, the movement speed, etc. If the change of the movement information is greater than a preset threshold, it indicates that the current skin position of the treatment module 110 is moved from the first position to the second position.

[0109] In the embodiments of the present application, the hair removal device 100 can determine the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module 110, and control the treatment module 110 to output a combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter. The combined energy includes a plurality of sub-energies, and there is a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies. The hair removal device can output multiple sub-energies at one skin position, which can avoid the discomfort or damage of the skin caused by the excessive energy output of the hair removal device 100 at one time, and can reduce the discomfort of the user caused by the energy output of the hair removal device 100. Moreover, outputting multiple sub-energies can improve the hair removal effect of the hair removal device 100, and provide the user with a more accurate and comfortable use experience.

[0110] Exemplarily, FIG. 1B is a structural block diagram of a hair removal device in an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1B, the hair removal device 100 can include a treatment module 110 and a control module 130.

[0111] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can include a power supply module 140 and an energy storage module 150. After obtaining the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module 110, the hair removal device 100 can control the power supply module 140 to charge the energy storage module 150 until the amount of electricity in the energy storage module 150 reaches a first preset value, so that the control module 130 controls the treatment module 110 to output a combined energy at the current skin position based on the amount of electricity in the energy storage module 150 according to the energy output parameter.

[0112] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can include a skin detection module 160. The hair removal device 100 can control the skin detection module 160 to perform skin detection on the current skin position where the treatment module 110 is located, and send the skin state corresponding to the current skin position to the control module 130. The control module 130 can determine the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module 110 according to the skin state of the current skin position and the working state of the hair removal device 100.

[0113] In some embodiments, the hair removal device 100 can comprise a position detection module 170. During the process that the hair removal device 100 controls the treatment module 110 to output the combined energy, or after the treatment module 110 finishes outputting the combined energy, the hair removal device 100 can control the position detection module 170 to detect the current skin position where the treatment module 110 is located.

[0114] During the process that the treatment module 110 outputs the combined energy, if the current skin position does not change, the treatment module 110 can continue to output the combined energy; if the current skin position changes, the hair removal device 100 controls the treatment module 110 to stop outputting the combined energy.

[0115] After the treatment module 110 finishes outputting the combined energy, if the current skin position does not change, the treatment module 110 stops outputting the combined energy; if the current skin position moves from the first position to the second position, the hair removal device 100 re-determines the energy output parameters of the treatment module 110 corresponding to the second position, so that the hair removal device 100 can output corresponding combined energy for the first position and the second position.

[0116] As shown in FIG. 2, in one embodiment, an energy output control method of a hair removal device is provided, which can be applied to the hair removal device described above. The method can comprise the following steps:

[0117] Step 210: determining the energy output parameters corresponding to the treatment module.

[0118] The hair removal device can control the treatment module to output combined energy at the same skin position, and the combined energy can comprise a plurality of sub-energies, and the plurality of sub-energies have a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies. That is, the hair removal device can control the treatment module to output sub-energies at intervals at the same skin position. Compared with the mode of outputting energy at one skin position once, the energy intensity of each sub-energy output by the treatment module is lower, which will not cause discomfort due to excessive stimulation to the skin, and the hair removal effect of the hair removal device can also be ensured by outputting a plurality of sub-energies.

[0119] The hair removal device can determine the energy output parameters corresponding to the treatment module, and the energy output parameters can refer to one or more parameters corresponding to the combined energy output by the treatment module.

[0120] In some embodiments, the energy output parameters can comprise at least one of the number of sub-energies included in the combined energy, the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy, the duration of the continuous output corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy, the time interval between any adjacent two sub-energies included in the combined energy, and the energy output range corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy.

[0121] The number of sub-energies included in the combined energy can refer to the number of times of outputting the sub-energies by the care module at the same skin position. If the number of sub-energies output by the care module at the same skin position is more, the effect of the energy output by the care module is greater, and the hair removal effect of the hair removal device is better. However, the more sub-energies output by the care module at the same skin position, the greater the stimulation of the skin position (such as causing the temperature of the skin to increase), and the greater the discomfort of the user. Therefore, the number of sub-energies included in the combined energy needs to be adjusted appropriately according to the hair removal needs of the user to avoid the user being burned due to too many sub-energies output by the care module.

[0122] The energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy can refer to the intensity of each sub-energy output by the care module.

[0123] Optionally, different energy types (such as radio frequency, light therapy, ultrasound, IPL, laser, etc.) have different intensity measurement standards, such as power, current intensity, light intensity, etc.

[0124] Optionally, the energy intensity output by the care module can be determined by the power of the output energy, the duty cycle of the output energy, etc.

[0125] The higher the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy output by the care module, the greater the effect on the skin. However, too high energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy may cause skin burns, and too low energy intensity may not achieve the expected hair removal effect. Therefore, the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy needs to be accurately set according to the hair removal effect required by the user and the skin tolerance of the user.

[0126] The duration of the continuous output corresponding to each sub-energy included in the combined energy can refer to the duration of the output of each sub-energy by the care module, that is, the duration of the action of each sub-energy on the skin. The longer the duration of the continuous output corresponding to the sub-energy output by the care module, the greater the effect on the skin. Since a longer duration may enhance the care effect, but may also increase the burden on the skin and cause skin damage. Therefore, it can be reasonably set according to the energy intensity of the output sub-energy and the skin quality of the user, etc.

[0127] The time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies included in the combined energy can refer to the interval waiting time between the output of the two adjacent sub-energies by the care module, that is, the time between the end of the output of the previous sub-energy by the care module and the start of the output of the next sub-energy.

[0128] The time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies can give the skin time to recover and adapt to the effect of the previous sub-energy, and can avoid damage to the skin caused by continuous high-intensity energy output. However, in order to avoid too long an interval waiting time resulting in too low an energy output frequency of the combined energy, and thus too low a hair removal efficiency of the hair removal device, the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies also cannot be too long.

[0129] Optionally, the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies can be determined based on the energy intensity, the duration of continuous output, and the skin quality of the user, and other factors.

[0130] The energy output range of each sub-energy included in the combined energy can refer to the range of action of each sub-energy output by the treatment module on the skin. The larger the energy output range of the energy output by the treatment module, the larger the area of the skin covered. For an area that needs to be depilated in a large area, a larger energy output range can simultaneously output energy to a larger area to improve the depilation rate. For a small area that needs to be depilated accurately, a smaller energy output range can save the energy consumption of the hair removal device.

[0131] It should be noted that the energy output parameters are not limited to the above-mentioned parameters, and can also include other parameters, which are not limited herein.

[0132] In some embodiments, the hair removal device determines the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module when it is detected that the treatment module meets a preset output condition. The preset output condition can include that the distance between the treatment module and the current skin position is less than a preset distance. By detecting the distance between the treatment module and the current skin position, the hair removal device can accurately obtain the energy output parameter to output the corresponding combined energy only when it is close to the skin of the user, which can reduce the probability of energy waste or weakened effect caused by the distance between the current skin position and the treatment module being too far when the combined energy is output, thereby achieving more accurate energy output and improving the hair removal effect.

[0133] In some embodiments, before each output of the combined energy, that is, when it is detected that the skin position currently occupied by the treatment module changes, the hair removal device can dynamically obtain the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module according to the skin condition of the skin position currently occupied by the treatment module, the user settings (such as the working gear, the working mode, etc.), and the external factors (such as the ambient temperature, the humidity, etc.). This can ensure that each output of the combined energy is matched with the current skin position, so as to adapt to different skin positions and user depilation needs, thereby improving the hair removal effect and the user experience.

[0134] In some embodiments, the hair removal device can further acquire the energy output parameter corresponding to each skin position of the user when the treatment module is at the skin position, and control the treatment module to output the corresponding combined energy at the skin position according to the energy output parameter corresponding to the skin position after the treatment module moves to the skin position.

[0135] In some embodiments, the energy output parameter corresponding to each skin position remains unchanged, or the energy output parameter corresponding to each skin position can change according to the change of the working state (such as the working mode or the working gear, etc.) of the hair removal device before the hair removal device completes the output of the combined energy corresponding to all skin positions. By providing more flexibility and control for the user, the user can optimize the hair removal effect according to personal feelings and hair removal needs.

[0136] In some embodiments, the hair removal device can determine the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module according to the preset configuration information. The preset configuration information is a fixed energy output parameter set in advance for the hair removal device, that is, the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module is an inherent attribute information of the hair removal device. This allows the hair removal device to automatically acquire these energy output parameters when it is started, reducing the complexity of the hair removal logic of the hair removal device, simplifying the operation process, and improving the stability of the use of the hair removal device.

[0137] Step 220, according to the energy output parameter, control the treatment module to output the combined energy at the current skin position, the combined energy includes a plurality of sub-energies, and there is a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies.

[0138] Optionally, each sub-energy included in the combined energy can be the same energy type, or can be different energy types. Different energy types have different hair removal effects on the skin, and the user can select different combinations of energy types according to their own skin.

[0139] The control module can control the treatment module to output the combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter, and after the treatment module outputs the combined energy, the control module can control the treatment module to stop outputting energy until the hair removal device detects that the current skin position of the treatment module moves from the first position to the second position. Then the hair removal device reacquires the energy output parameter of the treatment module at the second position to control the treatment module to output new combined energy at the second position.

[0140] In the embodiments of the present application, the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is determined, and the care module is controlled to output combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter, the combined energy including a plurality of sub-energies, and there being a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies. The hair removal instrument can output multiple sub-energies at one skin position interval, which can avoid the case of skin discomfort or damage caused by too large energy output of the hair removal instrument at one time, can reduce the discomfort of the user caused by the energy output of the hair removal instrument, and the output of multiple sub-energies can improve the hair removal effect of the hair removal instrument, providing more accurate and comfortable use experience for the user.

[0141] In some embodiments, the combined energy can include a first part of sub-energies and a second part of sub-energies, the output time of the second part of sub-energies can be later than the output time of the first part of sub-energies, and further, the first part of sub-energies can be different from the second part of sub-energies. The first part of sub-energies can include at least one sub-energy, and the second part of sub-energies can include at least one sub-energy.

[0142] The output time of the second part of sub-energies refers to the time when the care module starts to output the second part of sub-energies, and the output time of the first part of sub-energies refers to the time when the care module starts to output the first part of sub-energies.

[0143] The hair removal instrument can control the care module to output each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energies first, and then output each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energies. By dividing the plurality of sub-energies into two parts of sub-energies, multi-level energy output is realized, and the energy intensity of the second part of sub-energies is greater than that of the first part of sub-energies, or the continuous output time of the second part of sub-energies is longer than that of the first part of sub-energies. First, the first part of sub-energies with smaller energy intensity or shorter continuous output time is used to improve the activity of the skin at the current position, avoid skin sensitivity, and ensure the safety and comfort of the user, and then the second part of sub-energies with larger energy intensity or longer continuous output time is used to realize the effect of clean hair removal.

[0144] In some embodiments, the difference between the first part of sub-energies and the second part of sub-energies can include at least one of the following cases:

[0145] (1) The energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energies.

[0146] Among them, the energy intensity of any sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the energy intensity of any sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies. That is, the minimum energy intensity in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the maximum energy intensity in the first part of sub-energies.

[0147] In some embodiments, each of the sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies corresponds to an equal energy intensity; or, at least two of the sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies correspond to different energy intensities.

[0148] If each of the sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies corresponds to an equal energy intensity, the control logic of the hair removal device can be simplified, avoiding the complexity of outputting multiple sub-energies in the combined energy, and the sub-energies with the same energy intensity are beneficial to the skin adaptation, providing stable hair removal for the user and reducing the risk of skin discomfort or damage caused by uneven energy intensity.

[0149] If at least two of the sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies correspond to different energy intensities, the energy intensity of each sub-energy can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual hair removal needs of the user, and the different positions or skin conditions of the skin can be processed differently, improving the hair removal effect.

[0150] Alternatively, each of the sub-energies in the second part of sub-energies corresponds to an equal energy intensity; or, at least two of the sub-energies in the second part of sub-energies correspond to different energy intensities.

[0151] In some embodiments, in the first part of sub-energies or the second part of sub-energies, if at least two of the sub-energies correspond to different energy intensities, the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies or the second part of sub-energies can respectively show a gradually increasing trend. For example, the first sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies corresponds to an energy intensity of 5, the second sub-energy corresponds to an energy intensity of 10, and so on, but always maintains the smallest energy intensity in the second part of sub-energies, which is greater than the largest energy intensity in the first part of sub-energies. Among them, the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energies can be increased randomly, linearly, parabolically, etc., which is not limited here.

[0152] Alternatively, in the first part of sub-energies or the second part of sub-energies, the energy intensities corresponding to each of the sub-energies can not have a relationship, i.e., the change of energy intensity can show disordered change. For example, the energy intensity corresponding to the first sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies can be 8, the energy corresponding to the second can be 12, and the energy corresponding to the third can be 9, etc.

[0153] The higher the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy, the greater the impact on the skin, which can better destroy the hair follicles, thereby achieving the effect of strong hair removal. Therefore, the sub-energies with weak energy intensity in the first part of sub-energies are output to the skin first, so that the skin can gradually adapt to the energy impact; and then the sub-energies with strong energy intensity in the second part of sub-energies are output to the skin, so as to perform strong hair removal on the adapted skin.

[0154] Exemplarily, FIG. 3A is a schematic diagram of the control of the output of the treatment module of the hair removal device to output combined energy in an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3A, the hair removal device controls the output of the treatment module to output combined energy after obtaining the energy output parameters corresponding to the treatment module. The combined energy includes K+1 sub-energies, the first X sub-energies are the first part of sub-energies, and the X+1 to K+1 sub-energies are the second part of sub-energies, X is a positive integer less than K. The vertical axis represents the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy, that is, the greater the value of the vertical axis, the greater the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy. As shown in FIG. 3A, the energy intensity of each sub-energy of the second part of sub-energies is greater than the energy intensity of each sub-energy of the first part of sub-energies.

[0155] (2) The duration of the output of each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the duration of the output of each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energies.

[0156] The duration of the output of any sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the duration of the output of any sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies. That is, the shortest duration of the output of the sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the longest duration of the output of the sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies. The longer the duration of the output of the sub-energy, the longer the duration of the action of the sub-energy on the skin, which can ensure that the energy can more fully penetrate into the deep layer of the skin, thereby more effectively destroying the hair follicle.

[0157] In some embodiments, the energy duration of each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energies and / or the second part of sub-energies is equal; or there are at least two sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies and / or the second part of sub-energies, each corresponding to a different energy duration. Alternatively, the duration of the output of each sub-energy in the combined energy can be different.

[0158] In some embodiments, in the case where there are at least two sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies and / or the second part of sub-energies, each corresponding to a different energy duration, the energy duration of the sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies and / or the second part of sub-energies can respectively show a gradually increasing trend. The energy duration of the sub-energy can increase randomly, linearly, parabolically, etc., which is not limited herein. However, the shortest energy duration of the sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is always greater than the longest energy duration of the sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies.

[0159] Specifically, if the second part of sub-energies only contains the last sub-energy in the combined energy, and the energy intensity of each sub-energy in the combined energy can be equal, the duration of the output of the last sub-energy is greater than the duration of the output of any sub-energy in the combined energy except the last sub-energy.

[0160] Optionally, in the first part of sub-energy and / or the second part of sub-energy, each sub-energy corresponding energy duration can not have a relationship, that is, the change of energy duration can present disordered change.

[0161] Exemplarily, FIG. 3B is a schematic diagram of the output combination energy of the epilator control care module in another embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3B, the epilator controls the care module to output combination energy after obtaining the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module. The combination energy includes K+1 sub-energies, the first sub-energy to the Xth sub-energy is the first part of sub-energy, the X+1th sub-energy to the K+1th sub-energy is the second part of sub-energy, X is a positive integer less than K; the horizontal axis represents time, that is, the longer the sub-energy occupies the horizontal axis length, the longer the corresponding duration of the sub-energy. As shown in FIG. 3B, the duration of each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energy is longer than the duration of each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energy.

[0162] Optionally, the sum of the length of the horizontal axis occupied by each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energy is greater than the sum of the length of the horizontal axis occupied by each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energy; that is, the second part of sub-energy acts on the skin for a longer time than the first part of sub-energy.

[0163] (3) The sum of the energy intensity corresponding to the second part of sub-energy is greater than the sum of the energy intensity corresponding to the first part of sub-energy.

[0164] The sum of the energy intensity corresponding to the second part of sub-energy refers to the sum of the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy contained in the second part of sub-energy, and the sum of the energy intensity corresponding to the first part of sub-energy refers to the sum of the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy contained in the first part of sub-energy. Because the sum of the energy intensity of the second part of sub-energy is higher, stronger energy can be applied to the skin position, thereby more effectively destroying the hair follicle structure and promoting the shedding of hair, which is conducive to achieving the ideal hair removal effect; and by adjusting the proportion of the energy intensity of the two parts of sub-energy, it is more flexible to adapt to the needs of different skin types.

[0165] (4) The last time interval before the last sub-energy of the second part of sub-energy is greater than or equal to the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the combination energy.

[0166] Exemplarily, FIG. 3C is a schematic diagram of the epilator controlling the output of the care module to output combined energy in another embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3C, the epilator controls the care module to output combined energy after obtaining the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module. The combined energy includes K+1 sub-energies, the first X sub-energies are the first part of sub-energies, and the X+1 to K+1 sub-energies are the second part of sub-energies, X is a positive integer less than K; the horizontal axis represents time. As shown in FIG. 3C, the K+1 sub-energy is the last sub-energy of the second part of sub-energies, and the time interval between the K+1 sub-energy and the K sub-energy is greater than or equal to the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the combined energy.

[0167] (5) The average of each time interval in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the average of each time interval in the first part of sub-energies.

[0168] Exemplarily, FIG. 3D is a schematic diagram of the epilator controlling the output of the care module to output combined energy in another embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3D, sub-energy a, sub-energy b, and sub-energy c are the first part of sub-energies, and sub-energy d, sub-energy e, and sub-energy f are the second part of sub-energies. The horizontal axis represents time, there is a first time interval between sub-energy a and sub-energy b, a second time interval between sub-energy b and sub-energy c, a third time interval between sub-energy d and sub-energy e, and a fourth time interval between sub-energy e and sub-energy f. As shown in FIG. 3D, the average of the first time interval and the second time interval is greater than the average of the third time interval and the fourth time interval.

[0169] (6) The time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the second part of sub-energies is greater than the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the first part of sub-energies.

[0170] Exemplarily, FIG. 3E is a schematic diagram of the epilator controlling the care module to output combined energy in another embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3E, after obtaining the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module, the epilator controls the care module to output combined energy. The combined energy includes K+1 sub-energies, the first X sub-energies are the first part of sub-energies, and the X+1th to K+1th sub-energies are the second part of sub-energies, X is a positive integer less than K; the horizontal axis represents time. As shown in FIG. 3E, the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the X+1th to K+1th sub-energies is greater than the time interval between any two adjacent sub-energies in the first X sub-energies. Since each sub-energy in the second part of sub-energies is stronger than each sub-energy in the first part of sub-energies, setting a longer time interval for the second part of sub-energies than for the first part of sub-energies can provide the skin with longer recovery and adaptation time, thereby reducing the discomfort or damage to the skin caused by the energy output of the first part of sub-energies and providing a more comfortable epilation experience for the user.

[0171] (7) The energy output frequency corresponding to the first part of sub-energies is greater than the energy output frequency corresponding to the second part of sub-energies.

[0172] The energy output frequency corresponding to the first part of sub-energies can refer to the number of sub-energies output by the care module per unit time, and can also be represented as the time taken by the care module to output the first part of sub-energies. The output of the multiple sub-energies included in the first part of sub-energies is faster, which can allow the skin to adapt quickly, and then the sub-energies included in the second part of sub-energies are output at a lower frequency for more in-depth follicle treatment, so that the epilation time is reduced and the efficiency of the epilator is improved.

[0173] Exemplarily, FIG. 3F is a schematic diagram of the epilator controlling the care module to output combined energy in an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3F, after obtaining the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module, the epilator controls the care module to output combined energy. The combined energy includes K+1 sub-energies, the first X sub-energies are the first part of sub-energies, and the X+1th to K+1th sub-energies are the second part of sub-energies, X is a positive integer less than K, and X is greater than K-X; the vertical axis represents the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energies, and the horizontal axis represents time. As shown in FIG. 3F, the time period a-β corresponding to the first part of sub-energies is the same length as the time period γ-θ corresponding to the second part of sub-energies, indicating that the time taken by the first part of sub-energies is the same as the time taken by the second part of sub-energies. Since X is greater than K-X, it means that the number of sub-energies included in the first part of sub-energies is greater than the number of sub-energies included in the second part of sub-energies, so in the same time period, the energy output frequency corresponding to the first part of sub-energies is greater than the energy output frequency corresponding to the second part of sub-energies.

[0174] It should be noted that the combined energy is not limited to the two sub-energys described in the above embodiments, but may also include multiple sub-energys, which are not limited here.

[0175] In this embodiment, by differentiating the second sub-energy from the first sub-energy in terms of energy intensity, duration of continuous output, or total energy intensity, and ensuring that the second sub-energy is higher than the first sub-energy, the second sub-energy can more effectively destroy the hair follicle structure, thereby promoting hair loss and improving the hair removal effect. Furthermore, by increasing the time interval between the second and first sub-energy after continuous exposure to the first sub-energy, time for skin recovery and adaptation is provided, thereby reducing skin discomfort or damage caused by excessive energy output from the hair removal device in a single session and improving the user experience.

[0176] In some embodiments, the combined energy may contain N sub-energies. The number of sub-energies contained in the first sub-energy portion and the second sub-energy portion may vary as follows:

[0177] (1) When N is an even number greater than 1, the first part of the sub-energy contains the first N / 2 sub-energys of the combined energy; the second part of the sub-energy contains the last N / 2 sub-energys of the combined energy.

[0178] For example, assuming N is 4, the first part of the sub-energy contains the first two sub-energys, and the second part of the sub-energy contains the last two sub-energys.

[0179] (2) When N is an odd number greater than 1, the first part of the sub-energy contains the first X sub-energys in the combined energy, and the second part of the sub-energy contains the last Y sub-energys in the combined energy; where X is the value of N / 2 rounded down and Y is the value of N / 2 rounded up; or, X is the value of N / 2 rounded up and Y is the value of N / 2 rounded down.

[0180] When the number of sub-energys N in the combined energy is an odd number greater than 1, since they cannot be evenly distributed, it is necessary to use rounding up or rounding down to determine the number of sub-energys in each part. For example, assuming N is 5, the first part of the sub-energy can contain the first 2 (N / 2 rounded down) sub-energys, and the second part of the sub-energy can contain the last 3 (N / 2 rounded up) sub-energys. Alternatively, the first part of the sub-energy can contain the first 3 (N / 2 rounded up) sub-energys, and the second part of the sub-energy can contain the last 2 (N / 2 rounded down) sub-energys.

[0181] (3) In the case that the first part of the sub-energy and the second part of the sub-energy are distinguished from each other, and at least one of the above seven cases is included, the first part of the sub-energy includes the first sub-energy to the N-1th sub-energy of the combined energy, and the second part of the sub-energy includes the Nth sub-energy of the combined energy.

[0182] In the case that the energy intensity, the duration of continuous output, or the total sum of energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy in the second part of the sub-energy is higher than that of the first part of the sub-energy, or the energy output frequency corresponding to the first part of the sub-energy is greater than that of the second part of the sub-energy, the second part of the sub-energy can only include the Nth sub-energy of the combined energy, that is, the last sub-energy of the combined energy can be the sub-energy with the maximum energy intensity or the maximum duration of continuous output.

[0183] The Nth sub-energy can be the key of the entire combined energy, which needs to be applied individually at a specific time point and in a specific way to achieve the best hair removal effect or reduce the side effects on the skin, on the basis of ensuring that the first part of the sub-energy includes the sub-energies that have preliminarily processed the hair follicles, the hair removal effect is further enhanced.

[0184] In the embodiments of the present application, the hair removal instrument can accurately obtain the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module, output multiple sub-energies at one position, so that the combined energy can more flexibly act on the current skin position, so that the energy output of the hair removal instrument is more in line with the hair removal needs of the user, and a better hair removal experience is achieved; and by maintaining a certain time interval between adjacent two sub-energy pulses, the discomfort or damage of the skin caused by excessive single energy can be reduced, and a more accurate and comfortable hair removal experience is provided for the user.

[0185] As shown in FIG. 4, in another embodiment, an energy output control method of a hair removal instrument is provided, which can be applied to the above-mentioned hair removal instrument. The method can include the following steps:

[0186] Step 402, determining the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module.

[0187] The description of determining the energy output parameters in step 402 can refer to the related description in the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0188] As an implementation manner, the hair removal instrument can be provided with multiple working modes and / or working gears. The working mode of the hair removal instrument refers to the different operation modes or strategies adopted by the hair removal instrument in the hair removal process; the working mode can include but is not limited to a basic mode suitable for small-area hair removal (such as lip hair, finger, and other small areas), an expert mode suitable for parts that are inconvenient to be gently removed (such as fine and soft hair, small parts), a hair removal ice cool and gentle mode suitable for large-area hair removal, and a skin tendering mode (such as SR mode), etc.

[0189] The working level of the hair removal device refers to the adjustable energy intensity or power level of the hair removal device during the hair removal process. The working level can include, but is not limited to, a low level suitable for sensitive skin or first-time users of the hair removal device, a medium level suitable for general skin and users with moderate hair removal needs, and a high level suitable for users who need fast hair removal or have dense hair, etc.

[0190] The hair removal effect corresponding to different working modes can be different, and the hair removal effect corresponding to different working levels can be different. For example, the hair removal device can be provided with multiple different working modes and / or working levels, and the areas of the to-be-removed hair regions and the corresponding hair types corresponding to different working modes and / or working levels can be different.

[0191] Different working modes / working levels can be respectively provided with corresponding energy output parameters, and the user can select any working mode / working level according to the actual needs. The hair removal device can run the working mode / working level selected by the user, and the control care module outputs the combined energy according to the energy output parameters corresponding to the selected working mode / working level.

[0192] Optionally, the hair removal device can obtain the working state corresponding to the hair removal device; the working state includes the working level and / or the working mode; according to the working state, the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module are determined.

[0193] Among the working modes, a specific working mode can include a mode of pulse frequency, energy intensity change, etc.; these modes can be controlled by a pre-set program to achieve the best hair removal effect while reducing the irritation to the skin.

[0194] Among the working levels, different levels can correspond to different energy intensities to meet the hair removal needs of different users or different parts; for example, a high level is suitable for a dense hair area, and a low level is suitable for sensitive or delicate skin.

[0195] In some embodiments, the user can select the working level of the hair removal device according to the actual needs (such as the area of the to-be-removed hair region, the type of hair, the sensitivity of the skin, etc.). The area of the to-be-removed hair region can have a positive correlation with the working level; the sensitivity of the skin has a negative correlation with the working level.

[0196] In different working states, the energy output parameters of the combined energy can include one or more of the following:

[0197] (1) In different working states, the number of sub-energies contained in the combined energy is different.

[0198] Different modes can require different numbers of sub-energies to achieve the expected care effect; for example, a deep hair removal mode can require more sub-energies to ensure that the energy can penetrate into the hair follicle.

[0199] (2) In different working states, the energy intensity of the last sub-energy included in the combined energy is different.

[0200] In some embodiments, the energy intensity of the last sub-energy can affect the entire hair removal process, and has an important influence on the hair removal effect and skin comfort. In some working states, a sub-energy with a high energy intensity can be needed to ensure the thoroughness of hair removal; while in other working states, a sub-energy with a lower energy intensity can be needed to reduce the irritation to the skin. Alternatively, the hair removal device can automatically adjust the energy intensity of the last sub-energy according to the working mode and / or working gear selected by the user, to achieve the expected hair removal effect. Specifically, the higher the working gear of the hair removal device, the greater the energy intensity of the last sub-energy can be.

[0201] (3) In different working states, the duration of the last sub-energy included in the combined energy is different.

[0202] The duration of the output is the time of the action of the sub-energy on the skin, a longer duration of the output means deeper energy penetration and stronger hair removal effect, but it can also increase the risk of skin discomfort; a shorter duration of the output can be more gentle, but the hair removal effect can be relatively weak. Specifically, the higher the working gear of the hair removal device, the longer the duration of the output of the last sub-energy can be.

[0203] (4) In different working states, the time interval between the last sub-energy and the previous sub-energy included in the combined energy is different.

[0204] In some embodiments, since the energy intensity of the last sub-energy can be greater than that of the previous sub-energies, after the action of the previous sub-energies, the time interval between the last sub-energy and the previous sub-energy can provide a certain recovery for the skin; therefore, in different working states, the energy intensity of the last sub-energy included in the combined energy is different, the sum of the energy intensities of the multiple sub-energies before the last sub-energy is different, and the recovery time provided for the skin is also different, i.e. the time interval between the last sub-energy and the previous sub-energy is different. This provides the user with more hair removal options and more precise energy control to meet the hair removal needs of different users and different skins.

[0205] Specifically, the higher the working gear of the hair removal device, the greater the energy intensity of the last sub-energy and / or the sum of the energy intensities of the multiple sub-energies before the last sub-energy, the longer the time interval between the last sub-energy and the previous sub-energy.

[0206] At step 404, the power supply module is controlled to charge the energy storage module until the amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaches a first preset value, so that the care module performs energy output based on the amount of electricity in the energy storage module.

[0207] In some embodiments, the hair removal device further comprises a power supply module and an energy storage module. The power supply module can be used to provide an energy source for the power supply module. The energy storage module can be used to obtain electricity from the power supply module and store energy, so that the care module performs energy output based on the amount of electricity in the energy storage module.

[0208] The amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaching the first preset value indicates that the energy storage module has stored enough electricity to support the care module to perform the combined energy output this time. By charging the energy storage module each time the hair removal device, the combined energy output of the care module is provided with stable support, ensuring that the continuity and stability of each sub-energy output will not be affected by energy fluctuations or interruptions during the hair removal process, which can improve the overall working efficiency and performance of the hair removal device.

[0209] At step 406, the care module is controlled to output the combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameters.

[0210] The description of outputting the combined energy in step 406 can refer to the related description in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0211] In some embodiments, the power supply module can also be controlled to charge the energy storage module during the process of the care module outputting the combined energy. The way of controlling the power supply module to charge the energy storage module can include but is not limited to any one of the following ways:

[0212] (1) In the time interval between two adjacent sub-energies, the power supply module is controlled to charge the energy storage module.

[0213] In some embodiments, the hair removal device can send a control signal to the power supply module after the care module outputs each sub-energy, so as to control the power supply module to charge the energy storage module within a time interval. If the hair removal device detects that the amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaches a second preset value, or the time for the power supply module to charge the energy storage module reaches the time interval, the power supply module is controlled to stop charging the energy storage module, and the care module is controlled to output the next sub-energy until the next sub-energy is the last sub-energy in the combined energy. The second preset value is greater than the first preset value. The amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaching the second preset value indicates that the energy storage module is fully charged.

[0214] By charging in the time interval of adjacent sub-energy pulses, the energy storage module can always maintain sufficient power during the output of the combined energy for hair removal, ensuring that all sub-energies in the combined energy can be output completely. And the time interval is to give the skin time to recover and adapt, so charging the energy storage module during this time can maximize the use of this time and improve the overall efficiency of hair removal.

[0215] (2) In the nearest time interval before the output of the last sub-energy by the treatment module, the power supply module charges the energy storage module.

[0216] In some embodiments, after the output of the penultimate sub-energy by the treatment module, the hair removal device can control the power supply module to charge the energy storage module in the nearest time interval before the output of the last sub-energy; wherein the hair removal device can control the power supply module to charge the energy storage module when the amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaches a third preset value, which can be greater than the amount of electricity consumed by the last sub-energy and less than the second preset value.

[0217] Since the energy intensity of the last sub-energy can be greater than that of the previous sub-energies, the energy consumed by the treatment module to output the last sub-energy is also greater; therefore, energy replenishment in the nearest time interval before the output of the last sub-energy ensures that the energy storage module has sufficient power to complete this critical step and ensure the smooth output of the last sub-energy.

[0218] In the embodiments of the present application, multiple working modes and working gears are provided, allowing users to choose the most suitable working state for themselves according to actual needs, thereby achieving a better hair removal experience; and the hair removal device charges the energy storage module through the power supply module, ensuring that the energy storage module always maintains sufficient power during the hair removal process, thereby supporting the continuous and stable output of the combined energy by the treatment module; together, they constitute an efficient, safe and comfortable hair removal experience for the hair removal device, meeting the hair removal needs of different users in different scenarios.

[0219] As shown in FIG. 5, in another embodiment, an energy output control method of a hair removal device is provided, which can be applied to the hair removal device described above, and the method can include the following steps:

[0220] Step 502: The skin detection module detects the current skin position where the treatment module is located to obtain the skin state corresponding to the current skin position.

[0221] In some embodiments, the hair removal device further includes a skin detection module for detecting the skin state corresponding to the current skin position where the treatment module is located.

[0222] The skin state can include one or more of skin temperature, skin color, skin UV sensitivity, skin moisture, energy tolerance level, etc.

[0223] In some embodiments, the skin moisture refers to the moisture content of the skin surface; different skin moisture levels will affect the skin's absorption rate of energy, comfort, and hair removal effect. For example, overly dry skin is more susceptible to energy stimulation, while overly wet skin can cause uneven energy distribution. In a state of low skin moisture, i.e., dry skin, if the sub-energy output by the care module corresponds to an energy intensity that is too high, it can cause a burning or uncomfortable sensation for the user. Conversely, if the skin moisture is high, and the sub-energy output by the care module corresponds to a low energy intensity, the desired hair removal effect can not be achieved.

[0224] In some embodiments, the hair removal device can detect the skin's sensitivity to UV light to assess the skin's sensitivity to UV light, provide sunscreen recommendations to the user, and adjust the energy output parameters to protect the skin from UV damage. The higher the skin's sensitivity to UV light, the faster the skin will react to energy, and the energy output parameters can be reduced.

[0225] In some embodiments, the energy tolerance level refers to an indicator of the energy output level that the current skin location can withstand, which helps the hair removal device adjust the energy output so that the energy output is within the range that the current skin location can withstand, and provides personalized care according to the energy tolerance level, improving the overall safety, effectiveness, and comprehensiveness of the hair removal device.

[0226] Specifically, the sensitivity and tolerance of the skin to specific energy emission can be determined according to the reflectivity and absorptivity by measuring the reflectance and absorptivity of the skin to different wavelengths of light, and the corresponding tolerance level information can be set; or a camera can be used to take a skin image, and the corresponding tolerance level information can be automatically recommended by analyzing the skin color and features through an algorithm, etc.

[0227] For example, the tolerance level information can be divided into high tolerance, medium tolerance, low tolerance, and sensitivity, from high to low. High tolerance can be used to describe that the skin has no sensitive reaction to external stimuli (such as intense pulsed light, ultrasound, etc.). Medium tolerance can be used to describe that the skin has a slight reaction (such as a mild tingling sensation) when facing certain external stimuli, and is easy to self-relieve. Low tolerance can be used to describe that the skin is sensitive to external stimuli and is more likely to have an allergic reaction. Sensitivity can be used to describe that the skin is extremely susceptible to external stimuli and produces a strong sensitive reaction. In this application, the division of the tolerance level information can be flexibly set according to actual conditions, which is not limited in this application.

[0228] At step 504, the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is determined according to the skin state.

[0229] In some embodiments, the energy output parameter can be negatively correlated with the skin temperature.

[0230] In the case that the skin temperature at the current skin position is relatively high, it indicates that the current skin cannot accept the current energy, i.e., the current sub-energy is too strong for the current skin. To avoid damaging the current skin, the energy output parameter of the care module can be reduced, and the care module can output the combined energy according to the smaller energy output parameter, such as outputting the sub-energy according to a smaller energy intensity and / or a smaller energy output frequency, and / or a smaller number of sub-energies, and / or a larger time interval between adjacent sub-energies, which can reduce the skin temperature and reduce the risk of burning the skin due to the too strong energy intensity or too fast energy output frequency of the hair removal device, thereby further improving the care effect of the skin care device.

[0231] In the case that the skin temperature at the current skin position is relatively low, it indicates that the current skin may not have sufficient hair removal intensity. The care module can increase the energy output parameter to increase the hair removal intensity, such as outputting the combined energy according to a larger energy intensity and / or a larger energy output frequency, which can ensure that the output sub-energy can better act on the skin follicles and can enhance the hair removal effect of the hair removal device on the current skin, thereby achieving efficient and clean hair removal experience.

[0232] In some embodiments, the higher the tolerance level, the more sub-energies can be increased to improve the overall hair removal effect, because the skin can withstand more energy input. The higher the tolerance level, the shorter the time interval between adjacent sub-energies. A shorter time interval means more intensive energy input, which can speed up the hair removal process in the case of high tolerance. The higher the tolerance level, the greater the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy. The sub-energy with a larger energy intensity can provide stronger stimulation or action, which helps to enhance the hair removal effect in the case that the skin can tolerate it.

[0233] In other embodiments, the energy output parameter can have a relationship with the depth of the skin color, which satisfies one or more of the following:

[0234] (1) The lighter the skin color, the more sub-energies the combined energy contains.

[0235] (2) The lighter the skin color, the greater the energy intensity corresponding to each sub-energy contained in the combined energy.

[0236] (3) The lighter the skin color, the greater the energy intensity corresponding to the last sub-energy contained in the combined energy.

[0237] (4) The lighter the skin color, the longer the duration of the output of each sub-energy included in the combined energy.

[0238] (5) The lighter the skin color, the longer the duration of the output of the last sub-energy included in the combined energy.

[0239] Since the lighter the skin color, the relatively less melanin content, the weaker absorption and conversion of light, in order to achieve sufficient depilation effect, it is necessary to increase the number of sub-energies included in the combined energy, increase the energy intensity of each sub-energy or the last sub-energy, and increase the duration of the output of each sub-energy or the last sub-energy, which helps to ensure that sufficient energy is accumulated on the hair follicle, thereby achieving the depilation effect of destroying the hair follicle.

[0240] It should be noted that the energy output parameters cannot be blindly increased / decreased according to the skin color, and the energy output parameters should be comprehensively adjusted according to the individual skin characteristics of the user, depilation requirements, etc., to achieve the best depilation effect and safety.

[0241] In some embodiments, if the skin detection module detects that the skin humidity at the current skin position is low, the depilation instrument can reduce the energy intensity or energy output frequency corresponding to the sub-energy to reduce the irritation and potential discomfort to the skin. Conversely, if the skin humidity is within the preset humidity range and the skin type is neutral, the depilation instrument can increase the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy to speed up the depilation process.

[0242] Step 506: According to the energy output parameters, the treatment module is controlled to output the combined energy at the current skin position.

[0243] The description in steps 504-506 can refer to the related description in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0244] In some embodiments, during the output of the combined energy by the treatment module, the depilation instrument can perform skin detection on the current skin position through the skin detection module to obtain the real-time skin state corresponding to the current skin position; and adjust the energy output parameters corresponding to the combined energy according to the real-time skin state.

[0245] Alternatively, if the skin temperature rises too quickly or reaches the first preset temperature threshold, the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy in the combined energy can be reduced to reduce potential damage to the skin. Conversely, if the skin temperature drops too quickly or is maintained below the second preset temperature threshold, it indicates that the skin state is good and the depilation effect is poor, and the energy intensity corresponding to the sub-energy can be increased to increase the depilation intensity. The first preset temperature threshold is greater than the second preset temperature threshold.

[0246] Optionally, if the skin temperature is detected to rise too fast or reach a first preset temperature threshold, the time interval between adjacent sub-energies can be increased, or the energy duration of the sub-energy can be reduced, to provide time-varying heat dissipation or cooling, thereby preventing the temperature from rising further.

[0247] Specifically, when the user turns on the hair removal device, the control module of the hair removal device controls the power module to supplement the energy of the energy storage module to a first preset value. The control module performs skin detection on the current skin position where the care module is located through the skin detection module to obtain a first skin state corresponding to the current skin position; according to the first skin state corresponding to the current skin position, the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is determined, and the energy output parameter includes N energy output parameters such as a first energy output parameter. The first energy output parameter is the energy output parameter corresponding to the first sub-energy included in the combined energy, and the first energy output parameter can include the first energy intensity corresponding to the first sub-energy, the first continuous output duration, and the first time interval between the second sub-energy. The control module controls the care module to output the first sub-energy at the current skin position according to the first energy output parameter; after the output of the first sub-energy is completed, the skin detection module performs skin detection on the current skin position where the care module is located to obtain a second skin state corresponding to the current skin position.

[0248] After the first time interval, the control module adjusts the energy output parameter according to the second skin state to obtain a second energy output parameter, and the second energy output parameter includes a second energy intensity corresponding to the second sub-energy, a second continuous output duration, and a second time interval between the third sub-energy; according to the second energy intensity and the second continuous output duration, the control module controls the care module to output the second sub-energy at the current skin position; after the output of the second sub-energy is completed, the skin detection module performs skin detection on the current skin position where the care module is located to obtain a third skin state corresponding to the current skin position. In this way, after the N-1 time interval, the control module adjusts the energy output parameter according to the N-1 skin state to obtain the N-1 energy output parameter, and the N energy output parameter includes the N energy intensity corresponding to the N sub-energy, the N continuous output duration; according to the N energy intensity and the N continuous output duration, the control module controls the care module to output the N sub-energy at the current skin position.

[0249] Optionally, in the above embodiment, a total of N sub-energy outputs are completed, and there are N-1 time intervals. In the N-1 pulse interval, the control module controls the power module to charge the energy storage module to provide sufficient energy for the output of the N sub-energy.

[0250] In the embodiments of the present application, the skin state of the current skin position is detected in real time by the skin detection module, and the energy output parameters (such as energy intensity, continuous output time length and time interval between energy) are dynamically adjusted according to the detection result, so as to realize precise hair removal, ensure that each sub-energy output is optimized and adjusted according to the actual condition of the skin, and thus improve the hair removal effect; and the hair removal instrument can quickly respond to the change of the skin state and timely adjust the energy output to avoid unnecessary damage to the skin.

[0251] As shown in FIG. 6, in another embodiment, an energy output control method of a hair removal instrument is provided, which can be applied to the hair removal instrument described above. The method can include the following steps:

[0252] Step 602: Determine the energy output parameters corresponding to the care module.

[0253] Step 604: According to the energy output parameters, control the care module to output combined energy at the current skin position, the combined energy including a plurality of sub-energies, and having a time interval between adjacent two sub-energies.

[0254] The description in steps 602-604 can refer to the related description in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0255] Step 606: Detect whether the care module stays at the current skin position by the position detection module; if yes, execute step 608; if not, re-execute step 602.

[0256] In some embodiments, the hair removal instrument further includes a position detection module for detecting whether the hair removal instrument stays at the current skin position or has moved from one position to another position.

[0257] In some embodiments, the hair removal instrument controls the position detection module to collect movement information corresponding to the current skin position where the care module is located; compares the change of the movement information with a preset threshold value to determine whether the care module stays at the current skin position; if it is detected that the change of the movement information is greater than the preset threshold value, it is determined that the current skin position of the care module moves from a first position to a second position, and the first position and the second position are different skin positions; if it is detected that the change of the movement information is less than or equal to the preset threshold value, the care module stays at the current skin position. The position data can include one or more of the movement information such as movement distance, movement direction, movement speed, etc.

[0258] Optionally, the position detection module can include one or more of a camera, an acceleration sensor, a laser ranging sensor, a speed sensor, an ultrasonic sensor and a photoelectric sensor, etc.

[0259] Taking the position detection module as a camera as an example, the camera can collect images of the area where the care module contacts the skin, and the movement information of the skin care device relative to the first position can be determined by analyzing the changes of the skin area in the continuous multiple frames of area images.

[0260] Taking the position detection module as an optical flow sensor as an example, the optical flow sensor can collect scene images of the skin care device, and the movement information of the skin care device relative to the first position can be determined by analyzing the image differences of the continuous multiple frames of scene images.

[0261] It should be noted that the position detection module can also detect the movement information of the skin care device by using other sensors or other detection methods, and is not limited to the above-mentioned several ways, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0262] In some embodiments, the epilator detects that the care module does not stay at the current skin position through the position detection module, which means that the epilator detects that the current skin position of the care module moves from the first position to the second position through the position detection module, and then re-executes the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module.

[0263] If the current skin position of the care module moves from the first position to the second position is detected through the position detection module, the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module is re-executed. The current skin position of the care module moves from the first position to the second position, which means that the epilator has completed the hair removal treatment on the skin at the first position, and the epilator needs to perform hair removal on the skin at the second position. Therefore, the epilator needs to re-execute the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the care module based on the skin at the second position; the step of controlling the care module to output the combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter; so that different skin positions may require different energy output parameters to achieve the best hair removal effect while reducing side effects.

[0264] In some embodiments, during the process that the care module outputs the combined energy at the current skin position, the position detection module can continuously detect whether the care module stays at the current skin position; if the care module continuously stays at the current skin position, the combined energy is continuously output; if the care module does not stay at the current skin position, in order to avoid the skin of the new skin position being affected by the current combined energy, the care module is controlled to stop energy output.

[0265] In some embodiments, the position detection module can also mark the skin position where the combined energy has been output. After confirming that the current skin position of the treatment module has moved from the first position to the second position, it is determined whether the second position is the marked skin position. If the second position is the marked skin position, it means that the second position has completed the hair removal treatment and does not need to be removed again, and the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module is not re-executed. If the second position is not the marked skin position, the step of determining the energy output parameter corresponding to the treatment module is re-executed to perform the hair removal operation on the second position. The possibility of repeated hair removal is reduced, unnecessary damage to the skin is reduced, and the entire hair removal process is more convenient and comfortable.

[0266] In step 608, the light output module is controlled to stop outputting energy.

[0267] In some embodiments, after the treatment module outputs the combined energy at the current skin position according to the energy output parameter, if the position detection module detects that the treatment module stays at the current skin position, the treatment module is controlled to stop outputting energy. Specifically, the hair removal device acquires the position signal detected by the position detection module, determines the stay time of the treatment module staying at the current skin position according to the position signal, and controls the treatment module to stop outputting energy if the stay time is greater than a first preset time length. This prevents the same skin position from receiving excessive energy, thereby reducing potential damage to the skin. The stay time can be calculated from when the treatment module completes the output of the combined energy at the current skin position. The first preset time length can be preset based on factors such as skin type, hair removal area, and energy intensity.

[0268] Alternatively, if the stay time of the treatment module staying at the current skin position after the treatment module outputs the combined energy at the current skin position is greater than a second preset time length, the hair removal device can output a prompt information. The prompt information is used to prompt the user that the current skin position has completed the hair removal operation and needs to be moved to the next skin position to be removed. The second preset time length is greater than the first preset time length. Specifically, the prompt method of the prompt information can include but is not limited to one or more of voice prompts, text prompts, vibration prompts, image prompts, light source flickering prompts, etc.

[0269] In the embodiments of the present application, if the treatment module does not move after completing the hair removal at the current skin position, the energy output is stopped. If the treatment module moves to a new position, the energy output parameter needs to be determined again. This avoids repeatedly outputting the combined energy at the same position multiple times, ensures the continuity and accuracy of the hair removal treatment, and also avoids burning the skin at the same position by energy, thereby protecting the safety of the user's skin.

[0270] As shown in FIG. 7, in one embodiment, an energy output control device 700 of an epilating instrument is provided, which can be applied to the epilating instrument described above. The energy output control device 700 of the epilating instrument can include a parameter determination module 710 and a control module 720.

[0285] The charging module is configured to control the power supply module to charge the energy storage module until the amount of electricity in the energy storage module reaches a first preset value, so that the care module performs energy output based on the amount of electricity in the energy storage module.
