[0001] The present invention relates to a skin improving beauty device by applying electric stimulation, and more particularly, to a skin improving beauty device by stimulation of the skin of a human body to enable improvement of the skin.

Various types of ions or electrons can be generated inside the human body, and various types of electrical actions can be generated. For example, microcurrents of a magnitude less than 1,000 [mu] A can flow through various parts of the human body. Specifically, a living body current of 40 to 60 ㎂ in the human body can flow for signal transmission between the internal organs inside the human body. And if the body's condition becomes unstable, the body current flowing in the body can be weakened. Such weakened body currents can cause physiological activities or metabolic disorders in the body, resulting in poor health. Therefore, in order to compensate for the necessity, the flow of the living body current must be forced to be externally forced into the human body, and various treatment methods related thereto have been developed. For example, microcurrents are known to be effective in increasing adenosine triphosphate production, promoting fracture healing, improving blood circulation, alleviating pain, treating diabetes, treating osteoporosis, or treating arthritis.

In the following description, components having the same reference numerals in different drawings have similar functions, so that they will not be described repeatedly unless necessary for an understanding of the invention, and the known components will be briefly described or omitted. However, The skin-care augmentation device according to the present invention is capable of generating a variety of stimuli including minute currents of less than 1000 [mu] A, which are known to cause stimulation that is beneficial for physiological activity when flowing through the human body. . For example, the skin-beauty-improving device according to the present invention can generate a minute current having a size of 40 to 60 μA around the wearer's body for signal transmission between the organs inside the human body. The microcurrent can be generated in the form of a pulse, and the microcurrent can be induced to a predetermined part of the human body in a form that can be controlled by a power supply device such as a battery capable of generating electric power.

An electrode unit or contact terminals 111 and 112 are disposed in the attachment unit 11 to induce an electric stimulation such as a micro current into the human body. The contact terminals 111 and 112 are brought into contact with the human body to fix the skin-enhancing beauty device at a predetermined position, and at the same time, have the functions of an inlet and an outlet for introducing or discharging a current into the human body. The electrode unit may have a portion that can contact the human body and may have a function of electrically connecting the stimulation generator to the contact terminals 111 and 112. The case unit 12 may be coupled to the attaching unit 11 to form a space in which the parts or elements can be disposed. The attachment unit 11 and the case unit 12 can be combined with each other to make a structure of a portable or portable device and can be made in contact with or detachable from various parts of the human body. And can be independently operated in a state of being attached to a human body, and can be made wired or wireless communication with a smartphone or other electronic device according to the design structure. The stimulation control unit 121 can determine the magnitude, application time or stimulation type of the stimulus such as a microcurrent generated through the contact terminals 111 and 112. The stimulation control unit 121 can receive detection information as a detection unit for detection of temperature, charge or voltage and adjusts the stimulation induced by the electrode unit or contact terminals 111 and 112 based on the received information . The adjustment of the stimulation can be done by the stimulation setting unit 122. [ The stimulus setting unit 122 may be determined in advance by a stimulation control method that is controlled by the stimulation control unit 121.

The stimulus setting unit 122 may also generate semi-stimulation based on the type, size, or time of the stimulus generated in the human body. Specifically, the stimulus setting unit 122 can inform the user that a stimulus is applied by the contact terminals 111 and 112. [ Also, by applying the same kind of stimulus for a certain period of time, the user may not be aware that the stimulus is applied. In such a case, the stimulus setting unit 122 may notify the user that stimulation is being applied by applying different types of stimulation, altering the shape of the stimulus, interrupting the stimulation temporarily, or applying a relatively large stimulus. Further, the stimulation setting unit 122 detects the skin enhancing beauty device when it is separated from the human body and a certain time has elapsed, or when any one of the contact terminals 111 and 112 becomes in a state of being out of contact, Or may stop the operation of the stimulation control unit 121. [ For example, when a very large resistance is detected between the 1 contact terminal 111 and the 2 contact terminal 112, or when the flow of current is not detected, this is indicated on the indicator lamp 14 and the operation of the stimulus control unit 121 Can be stopped.
