Description

[0001] Mask apparatus for skin care [0002]

The present invention relates to a skin beauty mask device for managing facial skin, and more particularly, to a skin beauty mask device configured to alternately perform heating and cooling of the face.

As society has changed rapidly and quality of life has improved, interest in personal beauty has increased more than ever, and people are investing less in personal beauty. Skin cosmetics such as skin care, weight control, cosmetic molding, etc., which improve the condition of the skin (especially facial skin), such as wrinkle removal, elasticity increase and acne treatment, It is becoming an important cosmetic field and its interest is also increasing.

Accordingly, various products and devices for skin care have been developed and marketed. Typical examples thereof include cosmetics such as functional cosmetics, massage cream, and acne remedy; Wet facial massage equipment that warms the face with steam generated by heating distilled water or clear water; A vibration massage device that vibrates skin tissue to activate skin tissue as an electric motor vibration system or an ultrasonic wave generator.

Particularly, there are laser equipment using laser treatment method as skin care equipment which is mainly used, and expensive laser equipment is costly, so expensive skin care cost is required. Also, most of these laser devices are based on imports, and the treatment method consists of treating the local parts of the skin by burning with high heat generated from the laser.

Therefore, in the case of receiving skin care using conventional laser equipment, it is necessary to avoid going out to prevent damage due to ultraviolet rays of sunlight, or to avoid water contact with a treatment site such as a facial cleanser or shower for a certain period of time And the rate of recurrence after treatment is high. In recent years, skin management using an LED light source and its equipment have been developed in order to overcome the skin management method using the conventional laser system.

The LED light source is developed and used in various health related industries and its achievements are presented in many research fields such as sterilization function, air purification function, plant growth promotion function, skin activation function, and anti-inflammatory function have. In particular, in the skin-related field, there is no non-invasiveness and side effects as a step of introducing the technique of rejuvenation of the skin, and it is expected that the use as a self-cosmetic treatment device such as improvement of the patient's compliance, ease of use and satisfaction have. As a result, patent applications are being actively pursued by leading technology developers.

Therefore, the development of devices that can effectively treat and manage skin rejuvenation and acne skin diseases can improve the quality of life by various advantages such as reducing medical costs, shortening treatment time, and increasing patient satisfaction. The necessity and importance of the technology development is becoming more important.

In order to solve the above problems, a 'beauty mask' (Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2016-0095878) configured to heat the facial skin by using a plurality of LEDs has been proposed. It is possible to activate the skin by heating the user's face warmly and to enlarge the pores widely so that the absorption rate of the cosmetic product can be increased. However, since the conventional beauty mask has only a function of heating the face skin of the user by heating the extended pores, the pores are not completely shrunk and the pores are gradually widened.

Of course, the use of a cold mask pack can shrink the expanded pores to their original shape, but such a mask pack has a drawback in that it is limited in its application because it is wetted with lotion. For example, when the mask pack is used after the makeup is completed, the makeup is broken, and there is no method to shrink the expanded pore after the makeup is completed.

The heating unit 300 for heating the user's facial skin may be applied as a surface heating member capable of uniformly heating the user's entire surface, but it is not only a function of heating the user's facial surface, It is preferable to be applied to an infrared LED emitting infrared rays. In the case where the heating unit 300 is applied as an infrared LED, a plurality of heating units 300 should be provided on the inner surface of the mask block 100 as shown in FIG.

When the heating unit 300 is applied to a plurality of infrared LEDs, it is possible to expect disinfection and treatment effects of the skin as well as pore enlargement. By forming the gas jet opening 120 between two adjacent infrared LEDs, The entire face can be heated and cooled. The number and arrangement pattern of the heating unit 300 and the gas injection port 120 may be variously applied according to various conditions such as the size of the mask block 100 and the use of the skin beauty mask apparatus according to the present invention.

Meanwhile, the skin beauty mask apparatus according to the present invention can be configured to intensively cool only a part of the face of the user. 3, the gas injection opening 120 includes a first gas injection opening 120a formed at a position corresponding to the user's forehead and a second gas injection opening 120b formed at a position corresponding to the user's nose, And a third gas injection port 120c formed at a position corresponding to the cheek of the user. The gas flow path 110 includes a first gas flow path 110a for transferring cooling gas to the first gas injection port 120a, A second gas passage 110b for transferring the cooling gas to the second gas injection opening 120b and a third gas passage 110c for transferring the cooling gas to the third gas injection opening 120c.

If the gas injection port 120 and the gas flow path 110 are separated as described above, the user can only supply the low temperature gas to any one of the first gas flow path 110a, the second gas flow path 110b, and the third gas flow path 110c It is possible to cool only one part of the user's forehead, nose and cheeks. For example, when the user uses the nose pack, it is not necessary to reduce the pores of the forehead or the cheek, so that the low-temperature gas supplied through the gas supply pipe 220 is supplied only to the second gas channel 110b, .

On the other hand, the first gas passage 110a, the second gas passage 110b, and the third gas passage 110c can be independently opened and closed by opening and closing the first gas passage 110a, A second flow path valve 130b for opening and closing the inlet side of the second gas flow path 110b and a third flow path valve 130c for opening and closing the inlet side of the third gas flow path 110c May be provided. At this time, it is preferable that the flow path valve 130 is mounted on the outer surface of the mask block 100 as shown in the present embodiment so that the operator can operate the flow path valve 130 directly.

4 and 5 are use state diagrams of a skin beauty masking device according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

1, the inner surface of the mask block 100 needs to be spaced a certain distance from the user's face skin. Thus, the mask block 100 is spaced apart from the user's face skin The mask block 100 must be held by hand or the mask block 100 should be hung to another structure.

However, since the mask block 100 has a predetermined weight or more, it is difficult to hold the mask block 100 for a long time. When the mask block 100 is hung from a separate structure, There is an inconvenience that you should stay still.

Accordingly, the skin beauty mask device according to the present invention can prevent the mask block 100 from being deformed by the user's face so as to maintain a state in which the inner side of the mask block 100 is spaced apart from the face skin by a predetermined distance, And a wearing bracket 400 for fixing on the face can be additionally provided. The wear bracket 400 is fixedly coupled to the mask block 100 and is worn to cover the head of the user as shown in FIG. 4. Even if the user moves his or her head, The advantage is that the separation distance can be kept constant.

Even if the wear bracket 400 is coupled to the mask block 100, the inner surface of the mask block 100 may contact the face skin when an external force is applied to the mask block 100. Therefore, a plurality of spacers 140 may be provided at the edge of the mask block 100 so as to be long on the user's scalp or neck. Since the spacer 140 protrudes from the edge of the mask block 100 as shown in FIG. 5, it does not interfere with the gas injection of the gas passage 110 and the heat transfer of the heating unit 300.

When the spacer 140 is provided at the edge of the basque block, the spacing distance between the inner surface of the mask block 100 and the face skin is maintained constant as long as the spacer 140 is not damaged or deformed .

In addition, since the face size and shape of a person are different from each other, it may be necessary to adjust the distance between the inner surface of the mask block 100 and the face skin according to the face characteristics of the user. Therefore, it is preferable that the spacer 140 has a protruding length that is adjustable. At this time, the spacer 140 may have any structure such as a double pipe structure or a zigzag type link structure, as long as the length of the spacer 140 can be adjusted by a user's operation.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. It will also be appreciated that many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention.
