Wearable device capable of stimulating acupuncture points

The present invention relates to a fitness wear device, and more particularly to a wearable device having a stimulating acupuncture function.

Maintaining the standard posture is what most people are pursuing, resulting in a variety of ways to provide people to maintain their posture. Some people adjust their body functions through natural methods such as diet and exercise. Some people use physical maintenance and health foods to improve their posture. Some people also use physical aids to achieve physical adjustment.

The aforementioned medical auxiliary behaviors may include the recent popular acupuncture slimming. At present, when the clinic performs acupuncture, the current can be normally turned on, and the acupuncture needle is connected to the micro-current machine, and the electro-therapy acupuncture method is used to assist the stimulation of the acupuncture points. Only when acupuncture is over, if the acupuncture is over, the behavior of stimulating acupoints will stop, so it is impossible to maintain the effect of continuous stimulation. Therefore, some people propose to achieve long-term stimulation through internal embedding, and also embed special lines. In the body, this special line can be slowly decomposed in the body to achieve the purpose of stimulating acupuncture points for a period of time, that is, to achieve the purpose of continuous acupuncture. However, this type of intrusion into the human body is not acceptable to some people. Therefore, non-invasive electrotherapy to assist in slimming will be acceptable to most people. However, it is not easy to perform electrotherapy for a long time, so it is impossible to achieve continuous stimulation. Of course, for the purpose of slimming can only be half the effort.

It can be seen from the above that under the acupuncture method of removing invasive methods, the electrotherapy method is an acceptable choice for most people, but it is necessary to consider the stimulation of maintaining a certain concentration to achieve better results. This will become a problem that most people cannot take care of, and more importantly, Users can only perform electrotherapy in the clinic, and can not be performed anytime, anywhere, that is, there are time and place restrictions, so how to find a convenient user's electrotherapy equipment, especially can be used anytime, anywhere, this will be the current The issue of technical staff in the field needs to be improved.

In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention proposes a wearing device that can stimulate acupuncture points, and through the wearing method, the inner electrode can stimulate the user's acupuncture points according to the control, thereby achieving the effect of continuously stimulating the acupuncture points.

The stimulation signal computing unit 22 is configured to analyze the input message received by the input unit 21 to generate a control command for controlling the electrode (as shown in FIG. 1) according to a stimulus type comparison table. Since the input input message may only be the selection of the control option, the stimulation signal operation unit 22 can find the corresponding control command through the pre-generated stimulation type comparison table, and the stimulation type comparison table can be selected as a technical option. Relationship with control instructions, For example, if the user chooses to use the waveform of the triangular wave, the stimulus type comparison table may have an interaction with the micro-current between the two electrodes, for example, generating a micro-current every 1.5 seconds or a micro-current between the two electrodes.

The communication unit 23 is configured to transmit the control command obtained by the stimulation signal operation unit 22. As shown in the figure, the communication unit 23 transmits the control command to the transmission unit 131 of the controller 13, and after receiving the control command, the transmission unit 131 converts the signal to the circuit control signal by the signal analysis unit 132, and finally supplies it to the electrical stimulation control circuit 133. The operation of the control electrode 12 (shown in FIG. 1), wherein the transmission unit 131, the signal analysis unit 132, and the electrical stimulation control circuit 133 are as shown in FIG. 1, and therefore will not be described again.
