Description

{MASSAGE APPARATUS FOR SKIN CARE}

The present invention relates to a skin massager, and more particularly, to a skin massager having a cooling effect by using a thermoelectric element.

Skin is present on the outer surface of the body, protects the internal organs from various external directions, and plays an important role in maintaining life and beauty. If such a skin loses its elasticity, it becomes impractical to make up, and it gives impression of sagging, so it is important to manage normal skin.

In order to maintain skin aging and skin elasticity, accurate skin make-up and proper massage are required in addition to cleansing of the skin to meet the condition of the user's own skin. In addition, if the skin is basically washed with warm water before the make- The elasticity of the skin decreases as it expands. At this time, by lowering the temperature of the skin by cold water or other methods, the elasticity of the skin can be maintained to prevent aging.

On the other hand, moderate massage raises the temperature of the skin to open the pores to get rid of the aged keratin and waste materials and sebum, thereby to make clean skin, which makes the skin rough and prevents the appearance of fine wrinkles. It is applied more conveniently as a variety of massage apparatuses such as a mechanical vibration structure and a far-infrared ray emission structure, as well as a basic method of applying a proper hand massage.

However, conventional skin care devices, which are skin massage devices based on the face, contact the massage cover to the body skin, and massage the skin by releasing the vibration mode of the massage cover or the far-infrared ray according to the electric application. However, There is a problem that only the effect of reducing the labor of hand rubbing can be reduced.

[

The main body 10 is a body of the skin massager according to the present invention, which has a space portion therein and is formed so that the diameter of the central portion is smaller than the diameter of the upper portion and the lower portion, .

The head portion 11 is provided at an upper portion of the main body 10 so as to be in contact with the user's skin. The head portion 11 is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the main body 10, Is installed.

The head 11 is mounted to be in contact with the thermoelectric element 40 and transmits the cold heat generated from the thermoelement 40 to the skin. The head portion 11 is vibrated by a vibrator or the like that provides mechanical vibration using the vibration generating portion 30 to massage the skin and provides a sufficient frictional force and adhesion force in contact with the skin, In case of applying an ultrasonic generator, the surface of the ultrasonic wave generator is kept at a uniform intensity so that the ultrasonic energy is not scattered but effectively transmitted to the skin, and the elements such as heavy metals are prevented from being released upon contact with the skin.

A mounting groove is formed in the head part 11 so that one surface of the thermoelectric element part 40 can be inserted. A heat radiating plate 41 is mounted on the other surface of the thermoelectric element part. The heat radiating fan further includes a heat radiating fan for sucking air outside the main body 10 toward the heat radiating plate 41 in the rear side body 10 of the thermoelectric element 40, And the thermoelectric element unit 40 is cooled by the control of the control unit 70. [

When the endothermic reaction occurs on one side of the heat radiating fan toward the head 11, an exothermic reaction occurs on the other side opposite to the head 11 so that the heat is discharged to the outside.

The head portion 11 is formed of at least one of a titanium compound, titanium, silver or silver alloy. The titanium compound is composed of titanium nitride, titanium carbide and titanium carbonitride having electrical conductivity and dense structure such as metal. The titanium compound is not limited to the above-mentioned examples. And a structure capable of improving appearance.

The ion generating part 20 is formed so as to allow a current to flow to the user's skin through the head part 11 and the contact pad 21 exposed on the outer circumferential surface of one side of the main body 10. The contact pad 21 is formed at the lower center of the main body 10 so that the user can naturally contact the main body 10 while holding the main body 10 by hand, and is formed of a material having electrical conductivity.

The ion generating part 20 has a structure in which a face of a user such as a user's face is in contact with the head part 11 and a current can be conducted when the user holds the contact pad 21 by hand, A loop is formed. In this case, a current is applied to the skin of the user through the head portion 11, and the magnitudes of the applied currents can be made different from each other.

The vibration generating part 30 is built in the main body 10 to apply vibration to the head part 11, and a vibration motor is used. The vibrating motor is positioned at the lower end of the head portion 11 to vibrate the head portion 11 finely by a predetermined number of times. Alternatively, the vibration generating unit 30 may be an ultrasonic generator for oscillating the ultrasonic wave to vibrate the head 11 finely. At this time, the ultrasonic wave generator includes a high frequency oscillation circuit for generating a high frequency and a vibrator for vibrating according to a high frequency electric signal generated from the high frequency oscillation circuit.

The thermoelectric element part 40 is located at an upper part of the inside of the head part 11 and performs a cold or warm operation according to the polarity of a power source supplied when the power is supplied. When a current flows in the junction surface between the semiconductor and the metal, Heat is generated or absorbed, and the amount and direction of heat generated in the magnitude and direction of the current can be adjusted. For example, if a hot operation is desired after a cold heat operation, if the polarity of the power supply is changed to change the direction of the current when the cold heat operation is reversed, the heat operation is performed by the Peltier effect. On the other hand, the Peltier effect is a kind of thermoelectric phenomenon. When a current flows through a junction of different kinds of conductors, heat or heat is generated in addition to the heat of the strings. This phenomenon occurs because the heat transferred by the current differs depending on the material .

The light irradiation unit 50 includes a red light source, a green light source, and a yellow light source so as to irradiate light of mutually different wavelengths to the user's skin. The red light source, the green light source, and the yellow light source are spaced apart from each other on the outer side of the head part 11 so that light emitted from each light source can be irradiated to the skin, inserted into a mounting groove formed in the head part 11 .

The light emitted from each of the red light source, the green light source and the yellow light source exhibits different characteristics when irradiated to the skin by wavelength. Preferably, the red light source has a center wavelength of 650 nm, the green light source has a center wavelength of 520 nm, and the yellow light source has a center wavelength of 590 nm. Here, green light having a wavelength of 520 nm enhances tissue regeneration and regeneration ability of the skin as compared with red light and yellow light. In addition, red light in the 650 nm band passes light through the skin with little loss of energy, so it transfers light energy to the skin, unlike the green light absorbed from the skin surface. Therefore, it supplies energy to the skin cells in the dermis to excel in the whitening effect, and helps to activate energy inside the dermis layer such as redness and erythema removal, pigmentation relaxation and wrinkle improvement. In addition, the yellow light having a wavelength range of 590 nm reaches the sebaceous gland located deep in the skin, and is effective in removing waste materials. It is effective not only to remove acne bacteria outside the skin but also acne bacteria in sebaceous glands and to remarkably improve the probability of recurrence of acne There is an effect to reduce.

The light irradiating unit 50 may further include a light source for emitting near-infrared rays having a wavelength range of 0.75 to 3 占 퐉. The near-infrared rays emitted by the light irradiating unit 50 may include energy to the deep part of the dermis layer where the green light, When it is used in conjunction with red light and green light, the cell energy can be increased more effectively and a great effect can be obtained.
