The present invention relates to intelligent storage technology and more particularly, to a vacuum suction acne remover with camera function, which uses a camera module to capture the image of the skin area being sucked by the vacuum suction module. Thus, during the suction process to remove the acne, the camera module can be used to observe the image of the suction area, and the suction force can be adjusted according to the depth of the acne displayed on the screen to avoid blind acne removing action and incomplete cleaning and to prevent the skin from being damaged due to excessive suction.
Generally, blackheads are removed by instrumental suction. The instrumental suction method mainly removes blackheads from the skin through an electric blackhead remover. An electric blackhead remover includes a remover body and a suction head mounted on the top of the remover body. The housing accommodates therein a vacuum pump, a flexible air tube, a battery, a control circuit board and a LED circuit board. The vacuum pump is connected to the suction head by the flexible air tube. The control circuit board is electrically connected to the vacuum pump, the battery and the LED circuit board respectively. The LED circuit board has mounted thereon a plurality of LED lamps. The remover body is provided with a plurality of lamp holes that accommodate the LED lamps respectively. When the electric blackhead remover is used, the suction head is abutted against the opening of the skin follicle, and the control circuit board is controlled to turn on the vacuum pump, causing the vacuum pump to generate a vacuum suction force at the suction head for sucking out the blackhead from the skin follicle, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning.
The above electric blackhead remover can clean the blackheads to a certain extent. However, it is still not satisfactory in function. When cleaning the skin pores, it is often difficult for the user to see the cleanliness of the skin pores, so it is possible to stop the cleaning process before the grease dirt is completely removed, resulting in incomplete cleaning. In addition, it is also possible to continue the cleaning process after the grease dirt has been completely removed, causing the skin pore cleaning device to be used for too long and causing damage to the skin.
Therefore, how to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks and inconvenience is the direction that the relevant industry players engaged in this industry are eager to study and improve.
The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is therefore the main object of the present invention to provide a vacuum suction acne remover with camera function, which comprises a main control module, a vacuum suction module comprising a suction head and a vacuum pump connected to the suction head and controllable by the main control module to generate a suction force at the suction head for sucking out an acne from the skin, and a camera module having an imaging lens controllable by the main control module to capture the image of the area being sucked by the vacuum suction module. During the suction process of the vacuum suction module, the camera module can be used to observe the image of the suction area, and the suction of the vacuum suction module can be adjusted according to the depth of the acne displayed on the screen to avoid blind acne removing action and incomplete cleaning and to prevent the skin from being damaged due to excessive suction, thereby improving the efficiency and cleanliness of acne removal.
According to another aspect of the present invention, the camera module is disposed inside an accommodation space of the vacuum suction module, and the imaging lens of the camera module is aligned with a suction port at the vacuum suction module, so that the surface of the skin can be directly and accurately observed. In turn, the visual deviation caused by the shooting angle is reduced, so that the process of acne adsorption can be accurately understood. Since the camera module is set inside the accommodation space, the original space can be effectively utilized without significantly increasing the overall volume.
According to still another aspect of the present invention, the suction head of vacuum suction module comprises a body member and a cap capped on the body member. The body member is provided with the detachable crystal on the side of the joint piece. The crystal is transparent, so the imaging lens of the camera module is not affected, and the crystal can be used to block the hole of the joint piece, preventing dirt from adhering to the imaging lens. Since the crystal can be disassembled, when the crystal is dirty, it can be disassembled for cleaning. After cleaning, the crystal is put back. Thus, cleaning the crystal is convenient.
Other advantages and features of the present invention will be fully understood by reference to the following specification in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
