Recently, a service for keeping feet healthy and clean has been made. These foot care services include not only the care of the toenails, but also the care of the feet themselves. That is, the foot care service includes not only toenail care and nail art for toenails, but also toenail correction, exfoliation of the sole of the foot, athlete's foot management, foot bath, foot washing, foot massage, and the like. In the present invention, foot care refers to care of the entire toenail, including the care of the toenail.

Nail art for toenails is to decorate the toenails beautifully, by applying manicure on the nails, drawing various shapes, characters, symbols, characters, etc. directly on the toenails, or attaching artificial toenails to the surface It includes various shapes, characters, symbols, characters, etc. drawn. Such toenail nail art is a toenail using a cleaning process of cleaning or wiping the toenails cleanly, a toenail clipper process of cutting the toenails using a nail clipper or a toenail clipper, and a stick-shaped abrasive stick having an abrasive layer formed on one side. Polishing process to cleanly trim the surface of the toenail in the desired shape, apply a base coat to the finished toenail, apply various colors of polish as a base color, and dry the base coat and base color process, It includes at least one of the finishing processes of applying an artificial toenail after applying a UV coating solution or applying UV gel. However, in toenail nail art, toenail fragments and toenail dust are generated during the nail clipping process, fine dust polished from the toenail is generated in the process of trimming the toenail with an abrasive stick, and keratin dust is generated during the exfoliation process. There is a problem that the dust is blown in all directions, polluting the surrounding environment, or in severe cases, fine dust is inhaled into the respiratory tract of the worker, causing respiratory diseases. In addition, the nail polish used to coat the toenails contains volatile chemicals that are harmful to the human body, such as benzene and thinner. there was.

Conventionally, such a foot care service is generally provided using a whirlpool massage device or a foot washing device for foot care.

In Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2004-0023273, a foot tub is provided at the lower front of a massage chair equipped with a vibration generating device, and the water stored in the tub is sucked into the foot tub by using a circulation pump, and then strongly into the foot tub. By spraying, a whirlpool is formed, and a whirlpool massage device for foot care is disclosed that presses and massages the feet with the whirlpool.

In Korea Registered Utility Model No. 20-0378343, there is a foot washing unit that automatically washes the feet by generating a whirlpool that is formed to be concave in front of the main body and forcibly causes a powerful wave to flow inside, and it is located on the upper surface of the main body behind the foot washing unit. A chair that is formed and can sit comfortably during foot washing, a footrest formed on the upper outer periphery of the front of the foot washing unit and on which washed feet can be placed, a circuit board to which external power is applied to the internal space of the body; Disclosed is a foot washing device for foot treatment, which includes an electric heater connected to a circuit board to generate heat, and a fan for forcibly transporting internal air.

Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1598207 discloses a chair body on which a user can sit or lie down; It is slidably installed back and forth on the upper surface of the vertical support installed on both sides of the chair body, and an armrest that can put the user's arms and hands, and is installed slidably back and forth on the lower part of the chair body, to support the user's feet and legs It consists of a footrest that can be placed on it, and is slidably installed back and forth on the lower part of the footrest, and consists of a main body and a foot bath with an open upper part. A foot bath device that is provided with a heating means for heating the foot bath, and an air bubble supply means for supplying air bubbles to the foot bath water to wash or soak the user's feet, a discharge hole formed in the armrest or footrest, and a discharge hole In the process of managing nails or toenails, including the exhaust fan installed and the impeller rotates by the motor, the exhaust hose connected to the exhaust fan, the exhaust passage installed at the bottom of the exhaust hose, and the grill installed in the exhaust hole Disclosed is a nail care chair comprising a vacuum ejector for discharging nail or toenail dust, and a dryer provided on an armrest or footrest to dry paint painted on nails or toenails.

Therefore, a foot care or toenail care service provider (hereinafter, referred to as a worker) must sit on a low stool or the like and bend the back to provide a foot care or toenail care service to the customer.

However, when the operator provides the foot care or toenail care service in such an uncomfortable position, the work efficiency is lowered, the precision of the work is also lowered, and a satisfactory service cannot be quickly provided to the customer. In addition, when the worker bends his back for a long time and provides a foot care or toenail care service, there is a disadvantage that may harm the health of the worker.

On the other hand, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1598207 discloses that a discharge hole is formed in the footrest for discharging toenail dust generated in the process of managing the toenails on the footrest, and foot care is performed with the foot placed on the discharge hole. is configured to do so. With this configuration, relatively heavy dust such as toenail dust can be discharged through a discharge hole formed in the bottom of the footrest because it sinks downward after being separated from the toenail.

However, volatile chemicals harmful to the human body generated from base coat, polish, UV coating solution, UV gel, nail polish, etc. applied to toenails are highly volatile, so it is difficult to discharge them to the outside through the discharge hole at the bottom of the footrest. In addition, if the toenail pieces fall and accumulate around the discharge hole, it is very difficult to remove them.

On the other hand, the above patents provide a foot bath device, and a whirlpool massage device, an air bubble supply means, etc. are provided in the foot bath unit or the foot bath unit, so that air bubbles are massaged or washed during the foot bath or foot washing. However, the toenail and foot care service includes not only bubble massage for the feet or toenails, but also services such as exfoliation of the feet, removal of fungi such as athlete's foot (ringworm), and improvement of blood circulation in the feet. It is difficult to achieve effectively with bubble massage alone, such as exfoliating the feet, removing fungi such as athlete's foot (ringworm), and improving the blood circulation of the feet.
