넷째, 고온영역과 저온 영역이 피부에 닿는 형상을 마사지에 용이하게 하고자 한다.Fourth, the shape in which the high temperature region and the low temperature region are in contact with the skin to facilitate the massage.
다섯째, 냉온 마사지를 할 때 진동을 제공할 수 있어, 피부 마사지의 효율을 향상시키고자 한다.Fifth, it is possible to provide a vibration when doing a cold massage, to improve the efficiency of skin massage.
여섯째, 고온 열전달부재 및 저온 열전달부재로부터 돌출부를 부착시킨 후 피부 마사지를 실행함으로써 피부 탄력을 향상시킬 뿐만 아니라 정신 집중을 도울 수 있으며, 아울러 탈모를 예방하는 데 도움을 주고자 한다.Sixth, by attaching the protrusions from the high temperature heat transfer member and the low temperature heat transfer member and then performing a skin massage, it is possible to not only improve skin elasticity, but also help mental concentration, and to prevent hair loss.

However, the present invention is not limited thereto.
구체적으로 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 몸통부(100)의 제어부(110)는 중간부(200)의 내부를 관통하도록 형성된 관통공(230) 내부에 배치되는 전선(electric wire)에 의해 열전소자부(400), 진동부(500), 온도센서와 전기적 접속을 하게 된다. 이러한 전기적 접속을 통해 온도조절이 가능해진다.Specifically, the control unit 110 of the body portion 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is a thermoelectric element by an electric wire disposed in the through hole 230 formed to penetrate the inside of the intermediate portion 200. The unit 400, the vibration unit 500, and the electrical connection with the temperature sensor. This electrical connection enables temperature control.
본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 열전달부(300)의 고온 열전달부재(310)와 저온 열전달부재(320)는 두 부재를 체결하는 체결부재(330)에 의해 상호 이격 결합되어, 상호 간의 열교환이 차단되도록 주위에 단열부재(미도시)가 채워지는 것이 바람직하다. 체결부재는 공지의 다양한 소재가 활용가능하다.The high temperature heat transfer member 310 and the low temperature heat transfer member 320 of the heat transfer unit 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention are coupled to each other by a fastening member 330 for fastening the two members, blocking the heat exchange between each other It is preferable that a heat insulating member (not shown) is filled around.

본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 냉온 마사지장치는 열전소자부(400)의 고온발생부와 열접촉되는 고온 열전달부재(310)와, 저온발생부와 열접촉되는 저온 열전달부재(320)를 사용자가 필요에 따라 인체의 원하는 위치에 접촉시키는 방법으로 이용될 수 있다.Cold and hot massage apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is a user of the high temperature heat transfer member 310 and the low temperature heat transfer member 320 is in thermal contact with the high temperature generating portion of the thermoelectric element 400. If necessary, it can be used as a method of contacting a desired position of the human body.
예를 들어, 특히 여성들의 경우 피곤하면 눈 밑에 다크서클(dark circle)이 생기며, 스트레스가 증가되면 다크서클이 더욱 확대된다고 한다. 이러한 경우 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 냉온 마사지장치로 눈 밑의 다크서클 부위를 냉온 교대로 마사지하면 다크서클을 소멸시키는 효과가 있다.For example, women are particularly tired when they get dark circles under their eyes, and when stress increases, the dark circles get bigger. In such a case, when the dark circle portion under the eyes is massaged alternately with the cold and hot massage apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the dark circle is extinguished.
피부는 미세혈관의 혈액 원활해야 좋은 상태를 유지할 수 있다. 특히 눈 주위 부분은 스트레스 등에 민감히 반응한다고 알려져 있다. 이러한 눈 주위의 피부는 얼굴의 다른 부분에 비해 3배 이상 얇은 것으로 알려져 있다. The skin must be fine blood vessels to maintain good condition. In particular, the area around the eye is known to be sensitive to stress. The skin around the eye is known to be three times thinner than other parts of the face.
또한 피부는 저온에서 톡톡 터치 또는 패팅 하듯이 때려주면 긴장도가 증가하므로, 피부 내의 잔 근육이 발달되므로 피부가 탱탱한 상태로 된다고 한다. 이 경우 차가운 저온으로 터치하는 것이 고온보다 바람직하며, 저온과 고온이 교대 내지 동시에 가해지는 상태에서 터치 또는 패팅하는 것은 더욱 바람직하다고 한다. 또한 피부에 일정한 고온과 진동이 가해지면 모공 속 노폐물의 제거에도 효과적이라고 한다.In addition, since the skin increases tension when it is knocked or touched at a low temperature, the skin becomes firm because the remaining muscles in the skin develop. In this case, touching at a cold low temperature is more preferable than high temperature, and it is more preferable to touch or pat in a state where low temperature and high temperature are alternately applied at the same time. In addition, if a certain high temperature and vibration is applied to the skin, it is effective to remove the wastes in the pores.
이와 같이 신체 부분에 마사지하기 위하여는 지나친 고온과 저온보다는 피부에 임상적으로 가장 적절한 온도차이를 가진 고온과 저온을 지속적으로 유지하는 것이 중요하게 대두 된다.In order to massage the body parts, it is important to continuously maintain the high and low temperatures with the clinically most appropriate temperature difference to the skin rather than excessive high and low temperatures.
한편, 최근의 피부관련 연구에 따르면, 열 피부 노화(thermal skin aging)를 발생시키는 온도가 제시된다. 즉 피부에 열 자극을 주면 41°C 이상의 온도에서부터 콜라겐을 분해하는 효소인 MMP(Matrix Metalo- Proteinase)의 발현이 증가하며, 증가된 MMP 효소는 사람 피부를 구성하는 콜라겐 섬유, 탄력섬유 등을 분해하게 된다고 한다. 이러한 열 자극이 반복되면 마치 자외선의 자극이 반복되는 것과 동일한 피부 손상이 발생하게 된다고 한다.On the other hand, recent skin-related studies suggest a temperature at which thermal skin aging occurs. In other words, when the skin is irritated, the expression of matrix metaloproteinase (MMP), an enzyme that degrades collagen at temperatures above 41 ° C, increases, and the increased MMP enzyme breaks down collagen fibers and elastic fibers that make up human skin. It is said to be done. Repeated heat stimulation is said to cause the same skin damage as repeated stimulation of ultraviolet light.
따라서 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 고온 열전달부재(310)는, 마사지로 인한 피부손상 특히 얼굴의 피부손상을 방지하면서도, 마사지의 효과를 증대시키기 위하여, 고온 열전달부재(310)는 35℃ 내지 40℃의 온도를 유지하고, 저온 열전달부재(320)는 5℃ 내지 10℃를 유지하는 것이 바람직하다. Therefore, the high temperature heat transfer member 310 according to an embodiment of the present invention, while preventing the skin damage caused by the massage, in particular the skin damage of the face, while increasing the effect of the massage, the high temperature heat transfer member 310 is 35 ℃ to 40 It is preferable to maintain the temperature of ℃, the low temperature heat transfer member 320 to maintain 5 ℃ to 10 ℃.
나아가 고온 열전달부재(310)는 39℃의 온도를 유지하고, 저온 열전달부재(320)는 10℃를 유지하는 것이 보다 바람직하다.Furthermore, the high temperature heat transfer member 310 maintains a temperature of 39 ° C., and the low temperature heat transfer member 320 maintains a temperature of 10 ° C. more preferably.
다만, 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 냉온 마사지장치는 전술한 온도보다 높은 고온과 보다 낮은 저온도 발생시킬 수 있다. 이는 특히 근육통이나 삔 곳 등의 국부적인 신체 손상 부위에 전통적인 냉찜질 또는 온찜질이 필요하거나, 냉온 교대찜질이 필요한 경우에도 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 냉온 마사지장치가 충분히 사용될 수 있는 것을 의미한다. 특히, 여름철 바닷가에서 햇빛에 심하게 노출되어 화상을 입었을 경우 저온 마사지는 더욱 효과적이다.However, the cold massage device according to an embodiment of the present invention can generate a higher temperature and a lower temperature than the above-mentioned temperature. This particularly means that the cold massage device according to an embodiment of the present invention can be sufficiently used even if traditional cold or hot packs are required for local body damage sites such as muscle pain or sprains. In particular, low temperature massage is more effective when the sun is severely exposed to the sun at summer beach.
노화되어 탄력이 저하되는 피부를 저온으로 터치 또는 패팅하면 피부의 탄력이 증가된다. 이때 고온과 저온의 온도차이를 추가로 부여하면 피부의 탄력이 보다 증가하게 될 것이다.When skin is touched or patted at low temperature due to aging and decreases elasticity, skin elasticity is increased. At this time, if the temperature difference between the high temperature and low temperature is additionally added, the elasticity of the skin will be increased.
한편, 열전소자부(400)의 고온 발생부와 저온 발생부의 온도차이가 일정하게 유지되면서 각각 일정한 온도를 유지하려면, 고온 발생부의 방열이 효과적으로 진행되는 것이 필요하다.On the other hand, in order to maintain a constant temperature while maintaining a constant temperature difference between the high temperature generator and the low temperature generator of the thermoelectric element 400, the heat dissipation of the high temperature generator is required to proceed effectively.
