Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the medical device for skin disease treatment and muscle pain relief using the LED according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mask 100 for covering the face in a state worn on the head of the user and , The light irradiation unit 200 for irradiating light to the skin and the light control unit 300 for controlling the light irradiation unit 200 in order to fix the muscle disease through the treatment of skin disease and blood circulation improvement while being fixed to the mask 100. Include.

The mask 100 covers the face while being worn on the user's head.

In addition, the mask 100 may be provided with a skin detection sensor 110 that applies power to the light control unit 300 when the skin is sensed, and cuts off power applied to the light control unit 300 when the skin is not sensed. . The skin sensor 110 may be configured as a contact sensor or an infrared sensor.

Therefore, when the user does not bring the mask 100 close to his or her face skin, the light control unit 300 does not operate so that light is not irradiated from the light source unit 220, thereby minimizing energy waste. Of course, when the skin detection sensor 110 detects the user's face skin, power is applied to the light control unit 300 so that the light irradiation unit 200 is operated, thereby providing convenience in use.

The light irradiation unit 200 includes a circuit board 210 and a light source unit 220 that emits light by a power applied in a state in which the circuit board 210 is distributedly mounted on the circuit board 210.

The circuit board 210 applies power input from the outside to the light source unit 220 while being fixed to the mask 100.

The light source unit 220 may include an LED for irradiating a blue light source of visible light, an LED for irradiating a red light source of visible light, and an LED for irradiating an IR light source of near infrared light.

Since the circuit board 210 on which the LEDs of the light source unit 220 are dispersed and mounted is provided in the mask 100, light emitted from the LEDs may be uniformly irradiated onto the face of the user.

Here, the LED of the blue light source has a wavelength of 465 nm ± 10%, and the LED of the red light source has a wavelength of 627 nm ± 10%. The photons generated from the LEDs of the blue light source or the LEDs of the red light source are absorbed into the cell tissues to promote the metabolic activity of the cells, thereby activating the overall metabolic activity of the cells as well as helping the cell regeneration.

The LED of the IR light source has a wavelength of 844 nm ± 10%. When the infrared energy generated from the LED of the IR light source is irradiated to the human body, the applied area is warmed and the blood vessels are expanded, thereby circulating blood actively, which helps to alleviate muscle pain. Therefore, the skin disease can be alleviated by the light source irradiated from the LED which is the light source unit 220, and muscle pain can also be alleviated.

In addition, for the accuracy of LED light output, blue LED at 4.5mmW / cm2 ± 20% at 465nm ± 10% at the irradiation area 10mm × 10mm, 5mW / cm2 ± 20% at 627nm ± 10% red LED, and IR LED 844nm ± It is preferable that it is 7mW / cm <2> -20% at 10%.

More specifically, the LED can be irradiated to the diseased area of the skin in a large area with a suitable light output. The skin treatment technology using LEDs can induce photo-biochemical reactions between skin cells by the light of LEDs irradiated to the skin, similar to the principle that sunlight is converted to plant cells through chlorophyl in plants. .

Phototherapy with LEDs is based on the absorption of photons in the LED light source into chromospheres or photoacceptors in tissues and to promote cell metabolic activity. Light absorbed by cells increases ROS and ATP synthesis in cellular tissues, and cells exposed to red and near-infrared light emit NO. Light of the wavelength selected at the appropriate time and period is absorbed by photoreceptors such as intracellular Cytochrome c oxidase, which photolyses the inhibitory NO, promotes enzyme activation, and promotes mitochondrial metabolism and ATP production. Because of this, proteins such as hemoglobin and myoglobin release additional NO, which consists of a continuous intracellular biochemical reaction. As a result, LED light irradiation in the cell activates the overall metabolic activity of the cell and plays a large role in cell regeneration and rehabilitation.

LED light also promotes the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, inhibits the occurrence of wrinkles, makes the skin moist and elastic, and has a significant effect on the treatment of skin diseases. For example, when LED light, especially blue light, is irradiated on the skin area where acne is generated, the bacteria causing the acne disappear and the inflammation subsides, thereby improving the overall condition of the skin.

The light control unit 300 is input through a skin state input unit 310 that receives various skin conditions, a light source matching unit 320 that matches the light source units 220 with the input skin conditions, and a skin state input unit 310. It includes a light source operation unit 330 for selectively operating the light source unit 220 matched through the light source matching unit 320 based on the skin condition.

The skin condition input unit 310 receives a skin disease input unit 311 that receives skin diseases, a muscle pain input unit 312 that receives muscle pain, a level of the skin disease input unit 311, and a level of the muscle pain input unit 312. And a level input unit 313 and an operation time setting unit 314 for setting an operation time of the light source unit 220 corresponding to the level of the skin disease input unit 311 and the level of the muscle pain input unit 312, respectively.

When the user has a skin disease such as acne, the user may input a skin disease through the skin disease input unit 311, and when there is muscle pain by exercise, the user may input the muscle pain through the muscle pain input unit 312. When the user selects a desired level, the light of the light source can be used for an operation time corresponding to the selected level.

The light source matching unit 320 matches the blue LEDs and the red LEDs of the light source unit 220, and the IR LEDs of the light source unit 220 match.

The light source operator 330 may operate the blue LED and the red LED when the skin disease is input through the skin disease input unit 311, and operate the IR LEDs when the muscle pain is input through the muscle pain input unit 312.

When the level of the skin disease input unit 311 or the level of the muscle pain input unit 312 is input through the level input unit 313, the light source operation unit 330 may operate the corresponding LEDs for an operation time corresponding to the input level. have. Here, the light source operating unit 330 includes a clock that provides a time to operate the LED during the operation time is set based on the time provided from the clock.

The level of the skin disease input unit 311 or the level of the muscle pain input unit 312 may be set in one to twenty steps, respectively, and the one operation time of the light source unit 220 set in the operation time setting unit 314 may be one to one level. Can be set to operate for 20 minutes.

Therefore, when the user inputs a level for skin disease or muscle pain, the light source operating unit 330 operates the light source unit 220 for an operation time corresponding to the input level. That is, when the level of one step is input, the light source unit 220 may be operated for one minute. Here, the time for which the LED light is irradiated to the skin is preferably set to 20 minutes or less.

In addition, the light control unit 300 stores a time counting unit 340 for counting an operating time for operating the light source operating unit 330, and a level input last through the level input unit 313, and finally operates the light source unit ( A memory unit 350 for storing the remaining operation time which is not counted in the time counting unit 340, and a pause unit 360 for pausing or releasing the pause of the light source operating unit 330; ).

When the pause is released by the pause unit 360, the light source operating unit 330 operates the light source unit 220 stored in the storage unit 350 for the remaining operation time stored at the stored level.

The time counting unit 340 includes a clock that provides time, and thus may accurately count an operating time set based on the time provided by the clock.

The storage unit 350 stores and manages information about the input stored level, the light source unit 220, and the remaining operation time.

The pause unit 360 may be configured as a switch operated by a user or a touch sensor that detects a user's skin.

Therefore, the user may use the LED light to treat his skin, pause, and then treat the remaining operation time again. As a result, the user may treat the skin for a predetermined time, thereby preventing over-treatment of treatment for a time exceeding the predetermined time.

In addition, the light control unit 300 includes a pause display unit 370 that displays an operating state of the pause unit 360. The pause display unit 370 may be configured as an LED installed to be exposed to the outside of the mask 100. Therefore, if the LED which is the pause display unit 370 is turned on or blinks, the user can check this.

Meanwhile, the time counting unit 340 is set to count a preset pause time when the pause unit 360 is operated, and the storage unit 350 completes counting of the pause time in the time counting unit 340. If so, the stored level, the light source unit 220, and the remaining operation time are set to be deleted. Therefore, the user must reset the level and the light source unit 220 to suit their skin condition again after the pause time.

As such, the present invention can be irradiated with light in different wavelength bands to help the treatment of skin diseases and the treatment of muscle pains depending on the condition of the skin, it is very useful that can be widely applied to medical devices using LED It can be called an invention.
