Description

Far infrared aquatic physiotherapy device {APPARATUS FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY WITH HAND / FOOT SPA USING FAR-INFRARED RAY}

The present invention relates to a far-infrared swimmer physiotherapy apparatus, and more particularly, to radiate far-infrared rays corresponding to the blood vessels of the foot, and to heat and maintain liquid, semi-liquid, and solid medium to be heated to an appropriate temperature for physical therapy. It relates to a far-infrared amputee physiotherapy machine.

Common far infrared rays are distinguished from near infrared rays (0.076 to 1.5 microns) and mid infrared rays (1.5 to 5.6 microns), and mean infrared rays having a length of 5.6 to 1,000 microns. Far infrared rays were discovered by the German Hussel in the early 1800's and are more intense than the red of visible light visible to our eyes. For example, far-infrared rays are less reflected or scattered by the particulates in the atmosphere than ultraviolet rays or visible rays, pass through the air well and absorb the object well, causing resonance of the molecules of the object and causing self-heating. In particular, it is known that far infrared rays of 4 to 16 microns in wavelength range of far infrared rays give humans the most pleasant feeling and have excellent thermal effect.

On the other hand, the foot is a miniature version of the human body that can be said that all the organs of the body are gathered, massage the feet not only to relieve fatigue of the whole body, but also has a clearing and relaxing effect.

In addition, like the Meridian massage, if the foot is stimulated with energy effective to the human body, such as far infrared along the blood vein of the foot, the massage effect will be more excellent.

Foot massager according to the prior art, as shown in Figure 1, consisting of a bottom (4) and the side wall (7) of a box (1) of a size enough to hold a person's feet, and the bottom of the box (4) Heating wire (5) embedded in the floor to apply heat, the vibration motor (3) buried in the center of the floor (4), and ceramic material filled in the box (1), ceramic particles of uniform or non-uniform size It is characterized by consisting of (2). Here, the ceramic particles (2) is a conventional ceramic material, including those prepared by mixing a healthy herbal medicine at the time of manufacture, the reference numeral '6', which is not described in the drawings, embeds the heating wire 5 and the vibration motor 3. Buried material for

It is designed to massage very effectively.

However, the prior art foot massager does not disclose any electronic circuit configuration for heating the ceramic particles to a suitable temperature for physical therapy, massage, etc., which is not only inconvenient to use, but also an indirect far infrared emission effect through the ceramic particles, and direct far infrared emission. It is not enough to relieve fatigue of mind and body as much as the effect of massage, it is not enough to be used for the purpose of physical therapy.

In addition, the foot massager of the prior art in the case of wet, dropping aroma oil in warm water to massage the foot with bubbles, vibrations, etc., directly exposing far infrared rays corresponding to the blood vein corresponding to the actual adult foot No technical configuration has been realized.

In addition, the foot massage of the prior art has a disadvantage in that it does not provide functions such as exfoliation, skin elasticity maintenance and pore reduction, etc., and is integrally formed with the electric device inside the box, which is inconvenient to clean and wash.

The present invention devised to solve the above problems is far infrared rays are released to correspond to the blood vessels of the sole, and at the same time suitable for foot massage and physical therapy, heating the paraffin, aroma oil, hot water, etc. The goal is to provide a far-infrared amputee physiotherapy machine that can relieve physical and mental fatigue and keep health healthy.

In the following, an example of the use of the far-infrared amputee physiotherapy apparatus of the present invention using paraffin will be described.

First, the user fills the heating vessel 40 with the appropriate amount of paraffin.

The user loosens the power cord from the cord storage step 19 of the main body 10, and fastens the plug of the power cord to an AC power supply outlet.

When the user turns on the power switch 38, an external power source is applied to the control circuit 60 through the power cord. The microcomputer 60a of the control circuit 60 controls the circuit operation power supply (direct current) required for its circuit operation, the AC power supply for the heating wire 41, and the operating power supply (direct current) for the far infrared ray lamp 42.

The user operates the temperature control switch 62 and the operation time control switch 63 to set the operation time and the temperature.

In this case, the heating operation is started while power is applied to the heating wire 41, and at the same time, power is applied to each of the far infrared lamps 42 to emit far infrared rays.

Then, when the heating vessel 40 is heated to a proper temperature by the heating wire 41, the paraffin filled in the heating vessel 40 becomes a liquid state, the user's own body parts, such as the sole of the sole of the heating vessel 40 Soak in paraffin.

Since the sole of the user is placed on the upper part of the tray 50 placed on the bottom of the heating container 40, the skin from the sole to the periphery of the ankle is almost in contact with the paraffin without being in direct contact with the heating container 40. Physiotherapeutic treatment is performed by directly exposing the veins of the foot to far infrared rays.

The temperature and operating time of the paraffin are displayed through the display device 61.

Then, when the set time, or when the user turns off the power switch 38 (OFF), the physical therapy device of the present invention stops its operation.

The user takes the foot out of the heating container 40 and then dries the paraffin covering the skin in the air.

The paraffin is dried in the air and shrinks from the liquid phase to the solid phase, compressing the skin as a whole, and at the same time, the paraffin is integrated with foreign substances or dead skin contained in the skin surface and pores.

When the user removes dried paraffin from the skin, it exfoliates, removes foreign matter from the pores, and maintains skin elasticity.

Thus, the present invention can be conveniently used in homes, hospitals, skin care rooms, foot health care rooms, massage rooms, etc. At this time, paraffin bath and far infrared physiotherapy can be simultaneously performed, exfoliation, pore reduction, skin elasticity and It can be used to improve blood circulation.

As described in detail above, the far-infrared swimmer physiotherapy apparatus according to the present invention includes a heating vessel equipped with a far-infrared lamp and a heating wire arranged to correspond to the blood vein of an adult's standard foot, so that paraffin is maintained in a state of actively maintaining blood circulation. While allowing deep penetration into the skin, it is very convenient to use because it enables stable temperature control and operating time control through the microcomputer control, and the heating container can be separated from the main body through the connector, so there is an advantage of washing and cleaning management.
