The present invention relates to a health device, and more particularly to a health device capable of providing effect of cold compression and hot compression.
Cold and hot compressions are commonly used treatments nowadays, and cold and hot therapies must be used appropriately in order to have a good effect. The cold compression is a method to lower a temperature of tissue to achieve a therapeutic effect, so as to reduce amount of blood in the tissue and slow down metabolism of the tissue, thereby reducing bleeding and inflammation. Furthermore, cold compression also has a certain effect on spasms and can reduce pain. Hot compression can make local micro blood vessels dilate to accelerate blood circulation, so as to reduce inflammation, reduce swelling, reduce pain and eliminate fatigue.
When acute sport injury occurs, muscles or ligaments are severely impacted to occur tears and contusions, and microvascular hemorrhage and inflammation may also occur, and in this case, cold compression is needed to suppress bleeding and inflammation. After the swelling is slowed or stopped, hot compression can be performed to promote blood circulation and tissue metabolism, so that inflammatory substances in the affected area can be removed as soon as possible.
Commercially available dual-use cold-and-hot compression pack needs to be pre-chilled in a freezer of a refrigerator or pre-heated in a microwave oven before being used. Therefore, in order to increase in-time convenience for users, a health device of the present invention is developed.
The present invention relates to a health device capable of providing cold compression and hot compression functions, and the health device of the present invention does not need to be pre-cooled or heated by a freezer or a microwave oven, so as to facilitate to provide in-time help in a field where no freezer and microwave oven can be provided.
The present invention provides a health device including at least one device body and a control module. The at least one device body includes a heat dissipation space enclosed in the inside thereof, a heat dissipation body disposed in the heat dissipation space, and at least one temperature adjusting device disposed thereon. A part of the at least one temperature adjusting device faces the heat dissipation space, the at least one temperature adjusting device includes a thermoelectric cooling chip, a thermal conduction body and a heatsink, the thermal conduction body is disposed between the thermoelectric cooling chip and the heatsink, the heatsink comprises a plate portion and a sink portion, a side of the plate portion is abutted with the thermal conduction body, and the sink portion is extended from other side of the plate portion and in contact with the heat dissipation body of the heat dissipation space. The control module is electrically connected to the thermoelectric cooling chip of the at least one temperature adjusting device.
In an embodiment, the thermoelectric cooling chip is electrically connected to the control module which can transfer electrical power to the thermoelectric cooling chip, and the thermoelectric cooling chip converts electrical power into heating energy or cooling energy, and transfers the heating energy or cooling energy to the heatsink, and the sink portion of the heatsink transfers the heating energy or cooling energy to the heat dissipation body of the heat dissipation space, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting temperature.
In an embodiment, the at least one device body comprises a vibrating motor disposed thereon and electrically connected to the control module. The vibrating motor of the present invention can provide effect of vibration massage.
In an embodiment, the at least one device body has a side serving as a usage surface, and other side serving as a heat dissipation surface, and the health device further comprises an electrotherapy device disposed on the usage surface of the device body and electrically connected to the control module.
The structure, operating principle and effects of the present invention will be described in detail by way of various embodiments which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
The following embodiments of the present invention are herein described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings show specific examples of the embodiments of the present invention. These embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
