Description

Thermotherapy treatment apparatus

The present invention relates to a heat treatment device for heat treatment using light generated from the heat treatment ceramics, in particular, corresponding to the length of the spine of various users and to display the spine parts to accurately identify the treatment area to be used for self-diagnosis. It relates to a thermotherapy device.

In general, the heat treatment device uses the light, heat, and ceramics generated from each bulb when helium bulbs, infrared bulbs, and incandescent bulbs are used to prevent various diseases, as well as to obtain acupressure, thermal poultice, chiropractic, and cell regeneration. Of physical therapy is possible.

Here, when using helium bulb, a laser wavelength of 632.8mm is generated from helium bulb, so when this wavelength penetrates to 50mm depth of human body, white blood cells of capillaries exert more than twice the exercise effect, and are not released by exercise or massage. Fine muscles attached to the bones are not moved by the wavelength to maximize the effect of acupressure and massage.

In addition, when using an infrared bulb, the infrared ray having a wavelength of 5.6 to 100 microns can not only obtain an appropriate effect of removing waste materials such as heavy metals accumulated in the human body, but also can treat an adult disease such as chiropractic.

As mentioned above, helium or infrared light bulbs are used to perform physical therapy at home with the unique light wavelength and heat generated from the light bulbs, thereby preventing and treating adult diseases as well as physical therapy such as acupressure, heat moxibustion, spine correction and cell regeneration. Can be.

However, since the general heat therapy device has to be used while the user moves the location of the heat therapy device, it is difficult to find an accurate treatment site and a person who is uncomfortable with a motion needs a person who needs to move the heat therapy device from the side.

In order to alleviate the above-mentioned drawbacks, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 5, a chain 103 driven by a motor 102 is provided inside the mat 101, and the thermal therapy conductor 104 is installed on the chain 103. ), The chain 103 is rotated by the drive of the motor 102 so that the thermal therapy conductor 104 can be transported in the horizontal direction.

By the way, the conventional heat therapy device made as described above is because the transport stroke of the therapeutic ceramic is set constantly, so if the user's spinal length does not match the set transport stroke, the therapeutic ceramic is transferred excessively or undersized than the length of the treatment area. There was a problem that can not be treated properly.

In particular, in the case of a user with a small height, there is a risk of injury due to the excessive movement of the therapeutic ceramics by a certain acupressure, and in the case of a user with a large kidney, the therapeutic ceramics cannot be transported to the treatment site to obtain an adequate therapeutic effect. There was a problem.

And, if you want to treat the spine of a specific site, move the therapeutic ceramics manually switch one by one, find the treatment site, and then intensively reciprocate the heat therapy ceramics to the area to treat the treatment site manually. In addition to finding one by one, there was a hassle of repeating the above process every time the treatment was performed.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, by heating the user's spine automatically after display to allow the user to self-diagnose their spine length to properly adjust the transport stroke of the therapeutic ceramics The purpose is to provide a therapeutic device.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a thermal therapy device that enables the thermal therapy ceramics to be automatically transferred to the selected location simply by selecting a treatment site on the display as well as simply finding the spinal region to be treated by the display. It is also there.

Here, the hollow portion 42a may be formed at a predetermined portion of the platform 42 so that the tip portion of the ultrasonic generator may be exposed upward, so that the progress of the ultrasonic wave may not be prevented when launching and receiving the ultrasonic wave from the tip portion. It is.

On the other hand, the controller 70 is to control the operation of the various devices constituting the present invention, such as the transfer device 30, the lifting device 40, the scanning device 50, the display device 60, power switch and The same various manipulators are provided, and an input means 71 such as a mouse of a personal computer is provided so as to be used to determine the position of the cursor appearing on the display device 60.

Operation of the heat treatment device of the present invention made as described above is made as follows.

First, by setting the temperature and acupressure time of the thermal therapy ceramics 100 to the controller 70 to control the temperature and acupressure time of the thermal therapy ceramics 100, the transfer device 30, the scanning device ( 50) and the power of the display device 60 is turned on.

When operating the transfer device 30 for transferring the lifting device 40 and the scanning device 50 in the longitudinal direction in the power-on state as described above, the hydraulic pump 32 is operated to be stored in the oil storage tank 31 The oil is pumped under pressure.

The hydraulic oil pressurized and discharged by the hydraulic pump 32 is supplied to the hydraulic cylinder 33 via the direction switching valve 34, and the expansion and contraction of the piston rod 33a of the hydraulic cylinder 33 is made in accordance with the pressure oil supply direction. Will be done.

That is, when the direction switching valve 34 is in the neutral position, the pressure oil discharged from the hydraulic pump 32 is not supplied to the hydraulic cylinder 33 and is drained to the oil storage tank 31 as it is, so that the hydraulic cylinder 33 is operated. It will remain at the current position.

As described above, when the direction switching valve 34 is turned to the left in the neutral position, the hydraulic oil discharged from the hydraulic pump 32 is supplied to the head side chamber 33b of the hydraulic cylinder 33 and the rod side chamber 33c The hydraulic oil is drained to the oil storage tank 31 so that the piston rod 33a extends, and when the direction switching valve 34 is switched to the right, the hydraulic oil discharged from the hydraulic pump 32 is supplied to the rod side chamber 33c. As a result, the oil in the head side chamber 33b is drained into the oil storage tank 31 so that the piston rod 33a is tightened.

As the piston rod 33a expands and contracts as described above, the feed table 35 installed at the front end slides in the longitudinal direction while being guided by the guide bar 36, and the feed stand 35 is mounted thereon as the feed table 35 slides.

When operated, the lifting platform 42 installed at the tip of the solenoid 41 is raised to the corresponding height and stopped.

As such, when the platform 42 is moved to the upper portion, the heat treatment ceramics 100 placed on the upper surface of the platform 42 presses the spinal column of the user to perform acupressure.

As described above, when the heat treatment ceramics 100 are in close contact with the affected part and the platform 42 stops, power is supplied to the heat treatment ceramics 100. Accordingly, the bulb provided in the heat treatment ceramics 100 is turned on to irradiate the affected area with light to perform the heat treatment.

As described above, when a combination of the transfer operation by the transfer device 30 and the lift operation by the lift device 40 is operated, the heat treatment can be performed while moving the position of the heat treatment ceramics 100.

On the other hand, the heat treatment device according to the present invention may perform the heat treatment while the user sees the vertebral skeletal skeleton displayed on the display device 60.

That is, when a part to be treated on the display of the vertebral skeletal body is selected through the mouse, which is the input unit 71, the controller 70 controls the transfer device 30 by the selected spine position signal to heat the therapeutic device to the treatment site. (100) After the transfer will rise to work acupressure and heat treatment.

The thermal therapy device of the present invention as described above, the user can self-diagnose the displayed spine length of the user to obtain a proper therapeutic effect by adjusting the transport stroke of the thermal therapy ceramics, and also reduce the risk of injury due to excessive transport. It becomes possible.
