The present invention relates to a skin care device, and more specifically, the skin care device according to the present invention prevents skin aging and improves skin elasticity by simultaneously providing massage and radio-frequency electrical stimulation to the skin of the face, body, etc.
In general, as a person's skin ages, elasticity decreases and the skin stretches and wrinkles, and when exposed to UV light for a long time, the skin becomes thicker and the skin's blood circulation ability decreases, and moisture and nutrients are not supplied smoothly to the skin.
In order to solve this problem, a functional substance such as a nourishing cream has been applied to a skin, or a skin massage method for providing a physical stimulation to the skin has been used to further facilitate blood circulation.
In addition, it is already known that the radio-frequency electric stimulation of the skin promotes absorption of nutrients applied to the skin and promotes blood circulation by generating deep heat in the skin.
Recently, as interest in skin beauty has increased significantly, the development of a skin beauty device that improves the skin elasticity and prevents aging by simultaneously providing massage and radio-frequency electric stimulation for the skin has been actively conducted.
As described above, a number of prior art documents related to a skin beauty device to simultaneously provide massage and radio-frequency electric stimulation for the skin have been published, Korean patent application Nos. 10-2018-7002938, 10-2015-0111040, 10-2017-7027957, 10-2017-0122435.
Prior arts as described above providing technologies for skin care devices, while massage balls is in contact with the skin, as the user moves the handle up and down, the massage ball physically stimulates the skin, that is, while performing the massage, electric stimulation is applied to the skin through the massage balls.
However, since the prior art as described above provides electrical stimulation while massaging only one side of the skin such as a side of a face although it is necessary to provide electrical stimulation and massaging to both sides of the face such as both sides of cheeks or jaw, there was a problem that prior arts of skin care devices was not suitable for the above stated case.
That is, the prior arts of skin care device as described above was not suitable to use on a user's face because in the case of the face, the skin on the left and right sides can be treated at the same time to obtain a good effect, whereas care for only one side of the face is less effective.
In addition, it is necessary to be controlled so that the electrical stimulation is limited only when the skin care device is used in contact with the skin in that radio-frequency electrical stimulation is applied to the skin. However, the prior arts of skin care device was quite insufficient in the aspect of a function for safety as stated above.

Meanwhile, the contact member 332d provided on the other end of the shaft member 332a, is in contact with the inside of the roller cap 331 to transmit radio-frequency electricity transmitted through the shaft member 332a to the roller cap 331.
Here, the contact member 332d is further enlarged on one side in
That is, as shown in
Wherein, the shaft member 332a, the contact member 332d, and the roller cap 331 is preferably made of an electrically conductive material, the signal transmitter (450, see
when a signal for radio-frequency electrical stimulation is transmitted from the controller to the signal transmitter 450, the signal transmitter 450 directly or indirectly transmits a signal for the radio-frequency electrical stimulation to the shaft member 332a, and the signal is transmitted to the roller cap 331 through the ball contact BA of the contact member 332d so as to transmit a radio-frequency electrical stimulation to the skin of the user in contact with the roller cap 331.
As shown in
As described above, configurations for sensing the rotation of the massage roller includes, i) a configuration using a contact terminal 411 and a plurality of contacts 412, ii) a configuration using a magnetic sensor 421 and a plurality of magnetic bodies 422, and iii) a configuration using a photosensor 431 and a plurality of reflectors 432.
Those configurations for sensing the rotation of the massage roller may be the skin care device according to another embodiment as shown in
Meanwhile, the configuration of the “pressure detector” as shown in
For example, in
In addition, for example, between the gripper 150 and the slide groove 106, in a state that a contact terminal is provided at the gripper 150 and a contact point is provided in the upper portion of the slide groove 106, the first pressurizing supporter 130 and the second pressurizing supporter 140, as the first pressurizing supporter 130 and second pressurizing supporter 140 rotate, the gripper 150 moves upward by the first rotating guide 132 and the second rotating guide 142, respectively, and the first pressurizing by the contact terminal touching the contact point. Accordingly it is possible to detect that a pressing force is applied between the supporter 130 and the second pressurizing supporter 140.
Meanwhile, the configuration of the “skin contact detector 530” as illustrated in
