FIG. 2 illustrates only some of the components included in the mask pad unit 30 .

As shown in FIG. 2 , the mask pad 310 operates in a state covered with the upper surface of the mask pack 40 covering the user's face, and various components (liquids) included in the mask pack 40 . It assists in absorption into the skin. That is, it is difficult to see various skin-beautifying effects only with the mask pad 310 of the mask pad system according to an embodiment of the present invention. However, the present invention does not limit the performance of the mask pad unit 30 to an auxiliary one as described above, and there may also be embodiments in which a commercially used mask pack and the mask pad unit 30 are integrated with each other. have.

The mask pad 310 may be made of an elastic material, and materials that may constitute the mask pad 310 may include rubber and silicon. Since silicone has relatively superior heat resistance and no odor compared to rubber, it may be a material suitable for forming the mask pad 310 according to the present embodiment, and may have a certain degree of transparency.

The mask pad 310 may have a shape that mimics a person's face to a certain extent, and the mask pad 310 simulates a person's face to a certain extent in this way, so that it is applied to the upper surface of the mask pack 40 adsorbed to the user's face surface. can be covered The mask pad 310 may have an open nose and eye portions so that the user's nose and eye portions are exposed.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the oscillation unit 320 may be formed on the lower surface of the mask pad 310 , that is, the surface in contact with the mask pack 40 . The oscillation unit 320 itself vibrates to generate a high frequency, and the high frequency generated by the oscillation unit 320 affects the user's facial skin, so that various components included in the mask pack 40 are more easily absorbed by the user's face. in order to make it possible Therefore, in order for the high frequency generated by the oscillation unit 320 to more effectively affect the user's facial skin, the oscillation unit 320 is a mask that is not located on the upper surface of the mask pad 310 or inside the mask pad 310 . It is preferable to be installed on the lower surface of the pad 310 .

3 is a cross-sectional schematic view for explaining the operation of the mask pack 40 and the oscillation unit 320 covered on the skin 50 of the user.

As shown in FIG. 3A , when the mask pack 40 is covered with the user's skin 50, the emulsion 41 containing the beneficial ingredients contained in the mask pack 40 leaks toward the user's skin 50 side. However, the pores 51 may not be sufficiently large, so the absorption of the emulsion 41 may not be easy. Accordingly, when the oscillation unit 320 operates, a high frequency is generated and deep heat is generated in the user's skin 50, so that the pores 51 are enlarged as shown in FIG. 3b, and thus the fluid 41 is enlarged. By moving to the pores 51 , the emulsion 41 can be more easily absorbed into the user's skin 50 . When the emulsion 41 is sufficiently absorbed, the oscillation unit 320 may stop the operation to make the pores 51 smaller again as shown in FIG. 3C .

Although not shown in FIG. 2 , the power supply unit 330 shown in FIG. 1 may be installed in a specific portion of the mask pad 310 to supply power to each of the oscillators 320 . In the present embodiment, there may be a single power supply unit 330 , but the present invention does not limit the number of the power supply unit 330 to a single unit, and a plurality of power supply units may be installed on the mask pad 310 .

In this embodiment, the power supply unit 330 may include a battery, but the present invention is not limited to the shape of the power supply unit 330 thereto, and the power supply unit 330 is configured in the form of a terminal to provide an external commercial power source or an external battery. There may also be a form in which external power is supplied to the oscillators 320 by being electrically connected to the back.

The power supply unit 330 and the oscillation unit 320 may be electrically connected to each other using an electric wire. If it is located on the bottom, there may be a risk of short circuit. To prevent this, the power supply unit 330 is located on the upper surface of the mask pad 310 , and the wire connecting the oscillation unit 320 and the power supply unit 330 to each other passes through the mask pad 310 to the upper side of the oscillation unit 320 . It is wired on the upper surface of the mask pad 310 to minimize the risk of electric leakage.

The control unit 340 shown in FIG. 1 is also not shown in FIG. 2, but is installed on the mask pad 310 to control the operation of the power supply unit 330 and the oscillator 320, and operation frequency information of the oscillator 320, Operation time information of the power supply unit 330 and information of the temperature sensor unit 350 and the moisture sensor unit 360 to be described later may be transmitted to the outside. The controller 340 may also be implemented in the form of a chip on the upper surface of the mask pad 310 in order to prevent the risk of electric leakage.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the temperature sensor unit 350 , the moisture sensor unit 360 , and the communication unit 370 may also be installed on the mask pad 310 . At least one of the temperature sensor unit 350 and the moisture sensor unit 360 may be installed on the lower surface or upper surface of the mask pad 310 to measure the temperature of the user's face skin. The temperature sensor unit 350 and the moisture sensor unit 360 are to be installed on the lower surface of the mask pad 310 rather than being mounted on the upper surface or the mask pad 310 of the mask pad 310 for accuracy of the measured values. can The temperature information of the user's facial skin measured by the temperature sensor unit 350 and the moisture level information of the user's facial skin measured by the moisture sensor unit 360 are transmitted to the control unit 340, and the control unit 340 receives the received information. Temperature information and moisture level information of the user's face skin may be transmitted to the outside.

The communication unit 370 transmits various types of information received from the control unit 340 to the outside. The communication unit 370 may be installed together with the control unit 340 and may communicate with the terminal 20 . The communication unit 370 may communicate with the terminal 20 using various communication methods, and the communication method may be short-range wireless communication. The type of short-range wireless communication used by the communication unit 370 and the terminal 20 may be Bluetooth or Zigbee.

Hereinafter, a specific method of using the mask pad system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The user may input information on the mask pack 40 to be used into the terminal 20 by using the terminal 20 . The user inputs a specific code assigned to each manufacturer of the mask pack 40 into the terminal 20, or recognizes a barcode or QR code printed on the outer surface of the packaging material of the mask pack 40 to use the mask pack 40 You can check what this is. The terminal control unit 210 included in the terminal 20 stores the acquired information of the mask pack 40 in the history unit and at the same time accesses the server 10 and stores the information for each type of the mask pack stored in the database 100 . Among them, information for each type of mask pack recognized by the user input or through manipulation of the user's terminal 20 may be inquired, and a control signal according to the inquired information for each type of mask pack may be transmitted to the mask pad unit 30 . The control signal transmitted from the terminal 20 to the mask pad unit 30 may include information such as a use time and temperature for each type of mask pack, and a frequency of use. Here, in some cases, the use time and the use temperature may be manually changed by the user's manipulation.

The control unit 340 may initially operate the oscillator 320 and the power unit 330 according to the control signal transmitted from the terminal 20, and may be input by the user's manipulation or the usage time for each type of mask pack included in the control signal. The operation of the power supply unit 330 may be changed according to the set use time, and the frequency of the oscillation unit 320 may be changed according to the use frequency for each type of mask pack or the use temperature input by the user's manipulation. However, even if vibrations of the same frequency are generated according to the user's facial skin condition, the skin temperature may be different for each user. Therefore, even if the control unit 340 operates the oscillator 320 using the frequency initially included in the control signal, if the skin temperature of the user's face does not reach the recommended temperature, increase the frequency to promote the generation of deep heat, or decrease the frequency. By lowering it, it is possible to perform variable control such as lowering the generation of deep heat.

The control unit 340 operates the oscillator 320 for the recommended time or the usage time input by the user, and when the operation is completed, the operation time degree, operation frequency change information, skin temperature information, mask pack type, user information Transmits usage information, such as, to the terminal 20, and the terminal 20 transmits the information to the history unit 200 and the server 10, and stores it in the history unit 200 and the database 100, The operation information of the mask pad unit is updated.

In addition, the terminal control unit 210 generates a sound or vibration through the alarm unit 220 when the use information is received, so that the user recognizes the removal time of the mask pack.

The terminal control unit 210 included in the terminal 20 is based on the information stored in the database 100 or the history unit 200, if the user does not apply a mask pack for a specific period, such as a push alarm or a talk alarm In this way, it is possible to inform the user that the use of a mask pack is necessary, so that periodic skin care can be performed.

On the other hand, when the control unit 340 first operates the oscillation unit 320 and the power supply unit 330 according to the control signal transmitted from the terminal 20, and when transmitting usage information to the terminal 20, respectively, the moisture sensor unit Through 360 , the moisture level of the user's facial skin is measured, and moisture content information obtained therefrom is transmitted to the terminal 20 . Upon receiving the moisture content information, the terminal control unit 210 stores the received moisture content information in the history unit 200 together with date and time information. The moisture content information stored in the history unit 200 may be displayed on the display of the terminal 20 in the form of a graph of the moisture content change over time by control through the terminal control unit 210 according to a user's request.

In addition, the terminal control unit 210 may indicate on the display of the terminal 20 the amount of change in moisture before and after use of the pack when receiving the usage information.

On the other hand, the terminal control unit 210 through the user information stored in the database 100 and the corresponding mask pack use record, when the user corresponding to the specific user information has accumulated the specific mask pack a certain number of times or more, it is returned to the database 100. A user evaluation score can be transmitted along with user information. Here, as described above, the user evaluation score consists of items such as moisture, nutrition, brightening, trouble management, etc., and can be entered based on a 5-point scale for each item. Scores can be sent.

The server may provide an average score for each mask pack when a reception request from the terminal control unit 210 is received by averaging the evaluation score or the summed score for all items received for each mask pack. Preferably, it is provided when the user inputs information on the mask pack 40 to be used into the terminal 20 using the terminal 20 .

In some cases, the user may take pictures of before and after the mask pack through the terminal control unit 210 , and store the photographed pictures in the history unit 200 together with the mask pack 40 information and date information. The stored photo may be displayed on the terminal 20 through the terminal control unit 210 in response to a user's request so that the change of the skin for each time and mask pack can be checked as a photo.

On the other hand, the mask pad system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention may provide information on a dermatology department and a skin care room upon a user's request. In detail, when the terminal control unit 210 acquires the location information of the terminal 20 through the GPS unit 230 and transmits the acquired location information to the server 10, the server 10 is based on the received location information to transmit information about a dermatology department and a skin care room within a certain radius to the terminal 20 in the form of a map.

Finally, the mask pad system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention may purchase a mask pack by bidirectional communication with the online mask pack shopping mall server through the web surfing unit 240 upon a user's request.

The technical idea should not be construed as being limited to the above-described embodiment of the present invention. Various modifications can be made at the level of those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention as claimed in the claims. Accordingly, such improvements and modifications fall within the protection scope of the present invention as long as it is apparent to those skilled in the art.
