The light source 100 is disposed adjacent the recess 24 and below the surface 22 such that, when activated, the light set 102 of the light source 100 emits light into the recess 24 and onto any material or body part adjacent the first side 20. In the illustrated embodiment, the light source 100 is comprised of a plurality of light emitting diode lamps (hereinafter "LED lamps") configured to emit one or more of blue, red, and/or green light. As mentioned above, these different types of light emissions have known benefits on human skin. For example, blue LED lamps help to destroy bacteria. Red LED lamps are well known to improve skin texture and tone, stimulate collagen, and accelerate skin healing. Green LED lamps are known to help reduce skin discoloration and tighten the skin. These and other lamps have other known benefits. A skilled artisan will be able to select an appropriate light source for a particular cosmetic instrument according to a particular example based on various considerations, including the size and shape of the device and the type of light to be emitted by the light source. In another example, the light source can only emit one or more of blue, red, or green light. In alternative examples, the light source may also emit one or more of white light, black light, yellow light, violet light, pink light, cyan light, and orange light. In other embodiments, the light source may be comprised of any type of light, rather than LED light. In various embodiments, the light source may include one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or more individual lamps. In different embodiments, the light source may be attached to the controller or any other component by a physical attachment or adhesive; alternatively, the various lights may be arranged on the plurality of other components by any suitable mechanism. In some embodiments, a single light may emit only a single color; in other embodiments, a single light may emit one, two, three, four, or more colors. Moreover, in different embodiments, the lamp may have different shapes, including box-like, cylindrical, pyramidal, spherical, and other suitable shapes.

As described above, the locking mechanism 50 is configured to be inserted and received within the recess 24. The locking mechanism 50 is substantially annular and substantially transparent such that light emitted by the light source 100 passes through the locking mechanism 50 relatively unimpeded and onto a material or user adjacent the first side 20. When the locking mechanism 50 is disposed within the recess 24, the first side 54 of the locking mechanism 50 is disposed relatively closer to the surface 22 than the second side 56, the second side 56 being disposed closer to the base of the recess 24.

The locking mechanism 50 is configured to be repeatably inserted into the recess 24 and removed from the recess 24, so that a user of the cosmetic instrument 2 can insert or remove the locking mechanism 50 from the recess 24 at will. The locking mechanism 50 is securely received within the recess 24 without the aid of an additional mechanism or device. Furthermore, the locking mechanism 50 comprises an extension 52 extending from its center, said extension 52 being arranged on the cut-out 29 defined by the cosmetic instrument 2 when the locking mechanism 50 is placed in the recess 24. The extension 52 is positioned above the cutout 29 so that the user can easily remove the locking mechanism 50 from the cosmetic instrument 2 by grasping the extension 52. The locking mechanism 50 is also configured such that when a cosmetic accessory (described below) is inserted into the recess 24, the locking mechanism 50 can still be safely inserted into the recess 24 and over a portion of the cosmetic accessory, holding the cosmetic accessory in place.

The power source 60 is received in a face plate 62, the face plate 62 defining a recess 64 for storing the battery 60. The face plate 62 helps to conduct and/or remove heat from the temperature control element 110 (described below) to one or both of the first side 20 and the second side 30. The panel 62 also secures the power source 60 within the cosmetic instrument 2. Further, as noted above, the panel 62 includes an upper portion 66, and the upper portion 66 defines at least a portion of the first side 22, including the surface 22. A skilled artisan will be able to select an appropriate power source and panel according to a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the various components housed within the cosmetic instrument and the desired size of the cosmetic instrument. In other embodiments, the power source may include one, two, three or more replaceable dry cells. In various embodiments, the power source may consist of a lithium polymer battery or a secondary battery. In various embodiments, the panels may be constructed of any suitable material, including aluminum, aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, copper, stainless steel, gold, silver, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In further embodiments, the light source may emit one or more of red, blue, pink, and/or green light to indicate that the power source is charging and/or remains fully charged; in one such example, the light source emits white light that rotates in a circular motion through the groove to indicate that the device is charging, and a fixed purple light is emitted from the device indicating that the device is fully charged. In other embodiments, a portion of the faceplate may be coated with a thermal film or paste that helps protect the power source from the heat generated when the cosmetic instrument is in use. In various embodiments, the upper portion and/or surface of the panel may have a diameter of between about 2 centimeters and about 15 centimeters, between about 4 centimeters and about 12 centimeters, between about 6 centimeters and about 9 centimeters.

The power source 60 supplies power to the controller 70, and the controller 70 is also accommodated in the cavity 12 defined by the main body 10. Controller 70 is operatively connected to any of light source 100, motor 80, and temperature control element 110, provides instructions to each of these components, and controls these components. The controller 70 is activated by a user control 72, the user control 72 being disposed on the intermediate portion 40 and operatively connected to the controller 70. The controller 70 in the illustrated embodiment includes a printed circuit board assembly ("PCBA") and associated circuitry; however, in other embodiments, the controller may include any suitable component for controlling the cosmetic device, such as a printed circuit board ("PCB") or any other suitable computer or mechanism to communicate information. Further, the controller 70 may be operatively connected with the interface 90 to enable it to communicate with a second device (described in more detail below).

The user control 72 consists of a button that, when pressed, activates the cosmetic instrument 2. The repeated and/or specific types of use of user controls 72 may allow the user to cycle through various modes of operation of cosmetic apparatus 2 (described in more detail below). For example, the potential vibration modes that may be activated by user controls 72 may include a low frequency mode, a high frequency mode, a random mode, and a variable frequency mode. Further, the user may select various lighting modes, heating modes, and cooling modes via user controls 72. A skilled artisan will be able to properly place user controls on the device and configure the user controls according to particular examples based on various considerations, including the number of desired modes and the materials comprising the body. In other embodiments, user controls may be provided on either side of the body. In various embodiments, the cosmetic device may include zero, two, three, or more than three user controls. In further embodiments, the user controls may include separate user controls for controlling individual components and/or actions.

The motor 80 is disposed within the main body 10 and is operatively connected to the power source 60 and the controller 70. The motor 80 is disposed within a frame 82 within the body 10. The frame 82 serves to support the motor 80 and to keep the motor 80 fixed in a specific position inside the main body 10, as well as to provide structural support to the cosmetic apparatus 2. Specifically, frame 82 includes an arm 84 that defines a slot 86 for positioning motor 80. Arm 84 (and slot 86) extends from body 83 of frame 82 to second side 30 and allows an inner surface (not shown) of arm 84 to secure and hold motor 80 in place. The motor 80 is disposed substantially adjacent to the first side 20 so that its vibrations are efficiently transmitted to the user through the first side 20. At least a portion of the frame 82, including its proximal end 88, is constructed substantially of a transparent plastic. Accordingly, the proximal end 88 of the frame 82 may allow light generated by the light source 100 to pass relatively unimpeded through the proximal end 88 and the surface 89 of the frame 82.

A controller 70 powered by the power source 60 provides instructions to the motor 80. In various embodiments, a high or low frequency motor 80 may be used to generate pulses that vibrate the cosmetic instrument. The motor 80 in this embodiment is used to generate a series of frequencies that can provide beneficial treatment to the skin. When the cosmetic apparatus 2, and in particular the first side 20, is applied to a body, such as the face or neck, the motor 80 provides vibrations to the skin. A skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate motor, frame and vibration range based on a variety of considerations, including the size and shape of the cosmetic device and the desired vibration intensity of the device. Examples of suitable vibration frequency ranges include vibration frequencies between approximately 80 hertz ("Hz") and approximately 200 Hz, vibration frequencies between approximately 100 Hz and approximately 180 Hz, and vibration frequencies between approximately 120 Hz and approximately 150 Hz. In another embodiment, the cosmetic device may include two or more motors. In another embodiment, the motors may be randomly arranged. In other embodiments, the frame may be omitted. In various embodiments, the frame may not include slots or arms, but rather the device may be completely contained within its body. In some embodiments, there may be more than one motor; in embodiments that include multiple motors, the motors may differ from each other in frequency output.

The controller 70 also controls an interface 90, which interface 90 is a component of the controller 70. The interface 90 enables the cosmetic apparatus 2 to communicate with a second device, such as a personal computer, tablet, cell phone or other electronic device (not shown). Using the interface 90, the cosmetic apparatus 2 can send information to other devices so that the other devices can collect data relating to the use of the cosmetic apparatus 2. Further, the cosmetic device 2 may receive control signals from another device that may instruct the cosmetic device 2 to turn on or off, increase or decrease speed, switch to a different vibration, lighting, heating or cooling mode, and/or switch to a desired mode preset by the user or other instructions recommended by the other device. The interface 90 may be a wired interface or a wireless interface, such as a wireless transceiver that transmits control signals between the cosmetic instrument 2 and a second device. A skilled technician will be able to select the appropriate interface based on a variety of considerations, including the size and shape of the device with which the cosmetic instrument will communicate and the body. In some embodiments, the interface is a radio frequency ("RF") transceiver for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals between the cosmetic instrument and other devices. One example of a radio frequency transceiver that may be used is a low power 2.4 GHz radio frequency transceiver. In various embodiments, the cosmetic device may further include an antenna for transmitting and receiving signals between the cosmetic device and other devices. In these examples, the interface may wirelessly transmit information between the cosmetic device and another device using bluetooth, a wireless network, infrared, laser, visible light, acoustic energy, or other methods. In another embodiment, the controller may communicate with another device to confirm the authenticity of the cosmetic instrument, as described more fully below in fig. 30.

In some embodiments, the cosmetic device is connected to the network through a second device. In other embodiments, the cosmetic device may be directly connected to a wireless network or a cellular telephone network, and may be connected to the second device in any of the ways described. Thus, the cosmetic device may be controlled by a personal computer, tablet, cell phone, or other suitable electronic device. An example of such a design is shown in fig. 10.

Fig. 10 is a network diagram illustrating components of a cosmetic instrument (e.g., cosmetic instrument 2) according to an example embodiment. In this embodiment, the cosmetic device includes a controller, such as controller 70; a motor, such as motor 80; a light source, such as light source 100; a temperature control element, such as temperature control element 110; and an interface, such as interface 90. As described above, the cosmetic device may be connected to a network or other electronic devices through a personal computer, a tablet computer, a mobile phone, or may be directly connected to a wireless network or a mobile phone network. Therefore, the beauty instrument can be controlled by a personal computer, a tablet computer, a mobile phone or other electronic equipment through the mechanism, and can transmit and/or receive data with the personal computer, the tablet computer, the mobile phone or other electronic equipment through the mechanism. The interface may be wired or wireless and may include any of the above described. A skilled artisan will be able to determine how to properly connect the cosmetic device with other equipment based on a variety of considerations, including the desirability of doing so and the attachment of the equipment that would be beneficial. In some embodiments, the cosmetic device may not include an interface and, therefore, may not communicate with other devices. In different embodiments, the beauty instrument can only transmit data to other equipment; it may not receive any data and cannot be controlled by other devices in the described embodiment.

The data communicated by the cosmetic device to one or more of the personal computer, tablet, cell phone or other electronic device may include, for example, the number of times the cosmetic device is used, the duration of use of the cosmetic device for various purposes, the settings of the cosmetic device that the user prefers, and various other types of information related to the use of the cosmetic device.

As mentioned above, the cosmetic apparatus 2 further comprises a temperature control element 110, which in the illustrated embodiment is operatively connected to the power source 60 and the controller 70. Thus, the temperature control element 110 receives power from the power source 60 and operational instructions from the controller 70. In various embodiments, any suitable material and/or component may comprise the temperature control element, and examples of suitable materials that may comprise the temperature control element include copper alloys, polyimides, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In some embodiments, the temperature control element may be formed from a positive temperature coefficient thermistor.

The temperature control element 110 is substantially box-shaped and is disposed adjacent to a temperature exchange member 112 within the cavity 12 of the body 10. The temperature exchange member 112 helps to secure the temperature control element 110 in a relevant position within the beauty instrument 2. The temperature control element 110 is also disposed sufficiently adjacent the first side 20 so that its heat absorption and/or release can readily flow toward and/or away from the upper portion 66 of the face plate 62. In the illustrated embodiment, the temperature exchange component 112 may act as a heat sink, helping to prevent overheating of the cosmetic instrument 2; however, in other embodiments, any suitable element or component may constitute the temperature exchange component. A skilled artisan will be able to select an appropriate temperature control element and an appropriate temperature exchange member according to a particular example based on various considerations, including the constituent materials of the first and second sides of the body and the desired function of the cosmetic device. In various embodiments, one or more heat sinks may be used with the temperature exchanging component. In alternative embodiments, the temperature exchange member may be composed of any suitable material, including copper, copper alloys, aluminum, diamond, stainless steel, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In various other embodiments, the temperature control element and the temperature exchange member and their respective components can have any suitable shape, including spherical, box-shaped, oval, pyramidal, circular, triangular, rectangular, and/or circular arc-shaped. In various embodiments, the temperature exchange member may be composed of one or more of an aluminum alloy, a ceramic, stainless steel, and/or other suitable materials.

The temperature control element 110 is capable of absorbing heat and/or releasing heat from the first side 20 and the second side 30 of the cosmetic apparatus 2 upon receiving instructions from the controller 70. The temperature control element 110 is composed of different types of conductors, which enables it to absorb or release heat at the ends of the respective devices, as instructed by the controller 70 based on the various types of electronic signals emitted and/or the electric fields generated by the various components of the cosmetic apparatus 2. This allows the portions of the temperature control element near the ends of the first side 20 and the second side 30 to absorb and/or release heat as directed by the controller 70 based on the direction of current flow to the various components provided by the cosmetic instrument 2.

In operation, the power supply 60 and the controller 70 provide current, power, and direction of travel to the temperature control element 110 through the electrical circuit connections between the power supply 60 and the controller 70 and the temperature control element 110. Upon receiving the command and the electric current, the temperature control element 110 may absorb heat from its distal end 109 and release it through its proximal end 108 onto the first side 20, which causes the first side 20 to be at a higher temperature than it would be if the cosmetic apparatus 2 were not operating. Such release provides a hot compress treatment for the user. The temperature control element 110 may also absorb heat through its proximal end 108 and transfer heat from the first side 20 through its distal end 109, particularly through the temperature exchange member 112. This allows the first side 20 to be at a temperature that is lower than its temperature when the cosmetic apparatus 2 is not operating (or in some embodiments, when heat is released through the first side end to provide heat therapy). Thereby providing the user with cold compress therapy.

In more detail, when a user requires a thermal treatment, the temperature control element 110 absorbs heat through its distal end 109 and releases the heat through its proximal end 108 toward the panel 62 adjacent thereto, and then conducts and transfers the heat to the surface of the first side 20. Conversely, when the user wishes to perform a cold compress treatment, the temperature control element 110 absorbs heat through its proximal end 108 and releases it through its distal end 109 towards the temperature exchange member 112 adjacent to it. By transferring the heat from the first side 20, the temperature of the first side 20 is lower than when the cosmetic apparatus 2 is not in use (and/or when heat therapy is being provided). In either instance, the user may directly or indirectly contact the first side 20 by using the cosmetic accessory as a medium between the skin and the cosmetic apparatus 2.

In various embodiments, the temperature control element can heat the surface of the first side to a temperature of between about 70 degrees Fahrenheit ("° F") and about 150 ° F, or between about 75 ° F and about 125 ° F, or between about 80 ° F and about 100 ° F. The temperature control element can cool the surface of the first side to a temperature between about 30 ° F and about 80 ° F, or between about 40 ° F and about 70 ° F, or between about 50 ° F and about 60 ° F. In alternative embodiments, the temperature control element may also be in direct contact with or directly adjacent to the first side and/or the face plate. In some embodiments, the temperature-control element may comprise one or both of an N-type semiconductor and a P-type semiconductor, which may form a mechanism for absorbing and/or releasing heat from the proximal and distal ends of the temperature-control element.

The temperature exchanging member 112 serves to safely and properly process the surplus heat generated by the temperature control element 110 when the beauty instrument 2 provides hot and cold compress treatment. One way this can be done is by transferring the heat generated by the temperature control element 110 to the surface 32 of the second side 30, which second side 30 is comprised of a portion of the temperature exchange member 112, as described above. As previously discussed, the set of projections 34 of the second side 30 provides additional surface area (relative to a flat surface) to more quickly and efficiently transfer the heat from the first side 20 in the form of air or fluid. This may be done, for example, when providing cold compress therapy.

The skilled person will be able to select a suitable temperature control element according to a particular example based on various considerations, including the side to be treated by the cosmetic device for hot or cold compress, and the shape and size of the device. In other embodiments, the temperature control element may be used to heat the second side of the body for application to human skin, rather than the first side. In various embodiments, the temperature control element can transfer heat from the body through a first side of the temperature control element rather than a second side of the temperature control element. In various other embodiments, the temperature control element can dissipate heat to the intermediate portion.

In an alternative embodiment, the cosmetic instrument may cool only a first side of the cosmetic instrument and heat only a second side of the cosmetic instrument. In such embodiments, both sides of the device may provide treatment to the human skin, either directly or indirectly. Additionally, in another embodiment, the first side may be heated and the second side may be cooled. In another alternative, the temperature control element may heat and cool the first side and/or may heat and cool the second side, depending on the mode in which the cosmetic device is located and the instructions received by the temperature control element from the controller. In another embodiment, the temperature control element may simply emit heat in one or more directions; in such an embodiment, it may not be possible to cool the sides.

A first temperature sensor 120 and a second temperature sensor 122 (hereinafter collectively referred to as "sensors 120, 122") are also provided within the main body 10. The sensors 120, 122 are substantially pill-shaped and include tails 120a, 122a, respectively. The sensors 120, 122 are operatively connected to the power supply 60 and the controller 70 and are used to measure the temperature of the cosmetic instrument 2 and report the temperature to the controller 70. If one of the sensors 120, 122 detects that the temperature of the cosmetic apparatus 2 exceeds a certain threshold, it will send said information to the controller 70, while the controller 70 will activate the "off" function of the device to protect its user from the potential effects of the heating means (e.g. burning the skin). In this case, the beauty instrument 2 will stop operating; such a stop operation may be permanent or temporary. Two sensors 120, 122 are provided to ensure that in the event of a failure of the first sensor 120 or the second sensor 122, the cosmetic apparatus 2 still has a sensor that can operate to detect its temperature and shut down the cosmetic apparatus 2 if necessary. In the illustrated embodiment, each of the first sensor 120 and the second sensor 122 is comprised of a negative temperature coefficient thermistor; however, in other embodiments, the first sensor and the second sensor may be comprised of any suitable components. A skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate first and second sensors according to the particular example based on various considerations, including the particular temperature control element used and the size and shape of the device. In various embodiments, the sensor may be composed of any suitable material, including various semiconductors, copper, and other suitable materials. In other embodiments, the cosmetic device may include zero, one, three, or more than three sensors. In various examples, one or both sensors may instruct the controller to stop operation of the device when the sensors detect temperatures in excess of about 120 ° F, about 150 ° F, and about 180 ° F.

Various cosmetic accessories may be used with the cosmetic instrument 2. An exemplary beauty accessory includes one or more masks 200, as shown in fig. 11A and 11B. However, in other embodiments, other types of cosmetic accessories may be used. The mask, such as mask 200, is a cosmetic used to coat, fill or delaminate various slurries, liquids, compounds and the like. Masks are well known in the cosmetic industry, primarily in the form of a mask that covers almost the entire face of the user. They stay on the user's face, allowing materials and/or serum or cosmetics to contact the face for a longer time and be absorbed by the user's skin. On the other hand, the illustrated mask 200 only contacts a portion of the user's face and only contacts the face for a short period of time, i.e., when the skin care device 2 is in use.

The heating, cooling, vibration, and/or light generated by the cosmetic apparatus 2 helps the components of the mask 200 to be absorbed by the skin more quickly than if the components of a conventional mask were placed on the face for a longer period of time. In various examples, the mask can be composed of a cloth, a mesh, various microfibers, a silicone, a combination of one or more of these, and/or other suitable materials. In further examples, the mask may be coated, contain, include, or otherwise incorporate one or more of the following materials and/or compounds, alone or in combination: water, glycerin, butylene glycol, diethylene glycol, caprylic/capric triglyceride, ethyl cetyl hexanoate, cobalt diglyceride decanoate coating, hydroxyacetophenone, panthenol, allantoin, cetyl oligomer, sorbitol oligomer, ammonia alcohol, caprylic/capric glyceride, niacinamide, carbomer, various acrylates, dipotassium carbomer glycyrrhizinate, tocopherol acetate, ethyl hexanoate, tremella sporangia extract, xanthan gum, simon seed oil, flos Caraganae Sinicae, purslane extract, xyloside, non-hydroxy alcohol, 3-oxyethyl ascorbic acid, glucose, 1, 2-hexanediol, pearl extract, purslane extract, hydrogenated lecithin, ceramide 3, butylene glycol, decyl coconut shell, glycerin-26, shea butter, polyethylene glycol-100 stearate, polysorbate 60, sodium bicarbonate, Trimethylamine, carnosine, hydrolyzed collagen, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, and other suitable compounds.

The mask 200 can be placed on the surface 22 of the first side 20 and locked onto the cosmetic apparatus 2 by using the locking mechanism 50, and once the mask 200 is placed on the cosmetic apparatus 2, the locking mechanism 50 is placed on the mask 200 for locking. The mask 200 has a relatively thin circular shape. The mask 200 also includes a tab 202 extending from the body of the mask 200, which allows a user to easily grasp the mask 200. When the locking mechanism 50 is secured to the cosmetic apparatus 2, the locking mechanism 50 secures one portion of the mask 200 within the recess 24 and another portion of the mask 200 atop the inner portion 23 of the first side 20, in this manner locking one of the masks 200.

Fig. 12A, 12B, 12C, 12D show a combination of a mask (e.g., mask 200) and a cosmetic apparatus 2, respectively. Fig. 12A illustrates the cosmetic apparatus 2 with the locking mechanism 50 disengaged from the recess 24 and the mask 200 positioned adjacent the first side 20 of the cosmetic apparatus 2 but not in contact with the first side 20 of the cosmetic apparatus 2. Fig. 12B shows the mask 200 in contact with the first side 20 and adjacent the recess 24, with the locking mechanism 50 disposed over but not in contact with the first side 20. Fig. 12C and 12D each show the mask 200 in contact with the first side 20, partially disposed within the recess 24, and secured to the first side 20 by the locking mechanism 50, which itself is partially disposed within the recess 24.

In use, as shown in fig. 12A, 12B, 12C, 12D, a user can contact the mask (e.g., mask 200) with the first side 20 and lock the mask in place via the locking mechanism 50. The user then presses on the user control 72 of the cosmetic apparatus 2 to activate the device. The beauty instrument 2 then signals to the user that the device is ready for use. One way of displaying the signal that the cosmetic device 2 has been able to use is by emitting light through the light source 100. Light source 100 may be configured to emit light for a period of time (one second, two seconds, three seconds, etc.) to indicate that it is ready for use; it may also emit a certain color or sequence of colors to show that the device is ready for use. In various other embodiments, the light source may emit light in a rotational manner such that a particular light or light beam follows a path to show that the device is ready for use. Optionally, once the device is activated, the user may press and/or hold down user control 72 for a period of time to ensure that cosmetic apparatus 2 can communicate with a second device, such as a cell phone. An example of such a communication is a series of flashing lights that light up 3 seconds after the user presses the user control for a long time. The confirmation that the beauty instrument 2 is in communication with the second device may be another form of illumination of the light source 100.

In one example, after activation of the device, the user may select a certain mode, program, or therapy for the skin care device to perform. The user may press the user control multiple times causing the cosmetic device to cycle through the selectable therapies and display this process to the user through the light source. In an example embodiment, pressing the user control upon activation may cause the device to cycle through green, red, and/or blue light in a certain sequence. Other colors of light may also be emitted at this time. In such embodiments, the user may press the user control again (or stop pressing the control) when the device emits a particular light corresponding to the therapy that the user wishes the device to perform (the user may find this information in a manual or by trial and error). The device will then execute the selected treatment mode. In another embodiment, a particular treatment mode may be selected by providing additional buttons on the cosmetic device that allow the user to cycle through the various treatment modes. In various embodiments, a particular treatment method may be selected by using a second device (e.g., a cell phone) that communicates and transmits information with the cosmetic device. In other embodiments, the speed and/or rotation pattern of the light emitted by the light source may display various selectable treatment modes to the user.

once the user selects a particular therapy, the cosmetic apparatus 2 will perform one or more of providing a heating therapy or a cooling therapy, emitting various types of light and/or vibrations. The cosmetic apparatus 2 performs any of the instructions for these therapies by contacting or placing various portions of the device on the skin for any duration, as described above. In addition, these treatments may or may not be provided with a cosmetic accessory when applied to the skin.

Examples of various treatment modes are included below. The treatment modalities described below are merely illustrative in nature and do not limit the disclosure in any way. The following treatment modes may include the use of a mask in conjunction with the device; therefore, it is assumed that the mask used in each treatment mode is fixed on or partially within the cosmetic apparatus before the treatment mode is selected. However, there are other examples where the mask is not used. In addition, various cosmetic instruments may perform many other treatment modes not described below.

In each example treatment mode, the user presses a user control of the cosmetic apparatus, for example, a user control of the cosmetic apparatus. This activates the cosmetic instrument. Optionally, the user may press the user control for a long time next, approximately 3 seconds; this will confirm that the cosmetic device can communicate with the second device by a flash of light emitted by the light source (e.g., light source) for about 3 seconds. The user then selects the first example treatment mode by pressing the user control at the appropriate time or in the appropriate manner, as described above. At this point, with the exemplary treatment mode activated, the user will place the cosmetic device near or in contact with his or her skin. Thus, various example treatment modes will treat the user's skin through the following heating, cooling, lighting and/or vibration modes.

After selecting the first treatment mode, the light source will first emit red light simultaneously and heat the first side of the cosmetic device. This will last approximately thirty seconds. Next, the cosmetic device will simultaneously heat the first side, emit red light, and vibrate for about sixty seconds. Thereafter, the cosmetic device will simultaneously vibrate and emit red light for about thirty seconds. This may be repeated for several cycles; in various treatment modes, one, two, three, four, five or more cycles may be used. When the signals of the vibration of the three motors before the stop appear, the beauty instrument stops operating. The deactivation of the skin care device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by operating a user control.

In various embodiments, the first example treatment mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, the light source may emit any one of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit the light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1,2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, or any other suitable interval of seconds. Further, the first treatment mode may include periods when the device is not operating in emitting light, heat, cold, or vibration. Various exemplary first treatment modes may include any suitable number of cycles. Further, in other exemplary first treatment modes, the motor may generate vibrations and/or pulses at any frequency and for any suitable length of time, including between about 5 and 180 seconds, between about 30 and 150 seconds, and between about 60 and 120 seconds.

As described above, the second example treatment mode may also be selected via a user control. After selecting the second treatment mode, the cosmetic instrument will simultaneously emit red light and heat the first side of the cosmetic instrument. This will last approximately thirty seconds. Next, the cosmetic device will heat the first side and emit red light simultaneously, and vibrate or pulse for about 60 seconds. Thereafter, the device will emit green light while vibrating for about thirty seconds. When the signals of the vibration of the three motors before the stop appear, the beauty instrument stops operating. The deactivation of the skin care device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by operating a user control. Optionally, the motor may then be restarted and the cosmetic instrument allowed to generate an additional 30 seconds of vibration and/or pulsation; the intensity of the vibrations and/or pulsations may diminish over time.

In various embodiments, the second example treatment mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, the light source may emit any one of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit the light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1,2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, or any other suitable interval of seconds. Further, the second treatment mode may include periods when the device is not operating in emitting light, heat, cold, or vibration. Various exemplary second treatment modes may also include any suitable number of cycles. Further, in other exemplary second treatment modes, the motor may generate vibrations and/or pulses at any frequency and for any suitable length of time, including between about 5 and 180 seconds, between about 30 and 150 seconds, and between about 60 and 120 seconds.

As described above, the third example treatment mode may also be selected via a user control. After the third treatment mode is selected, the cosmetic device will simultaneously emit blue light and heat the first side of the cosmetic device. This will last approximately sixty seconds. Next, the cosmetic device will cool the first side and emit blue light simultaneously, and generate vibrations for about 30 seconds. Finally, the cosmetic device will cool the first side simultaneously, emit red and blue light, and vibrate for about 30 seconds. Deactivation of the skin care device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by manipulating user controls. Optionally, the motor may be restarted thereafter to allow the cosmetic device to generate an additional 30 seconds of vibration and/or pulsation.

In various embodiments, the third example treatment mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, the light source may emit any one of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit the light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1,2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, or any other suitable interval of seconds. Further, the third treatment mode may include periods when the device is not operating in emitting light, heat, cold, or vibration. Various exemplary third treatment modes may also include any suitable number of cycles.

Fig. 13, 14, 15a, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 show another example beauty instrument 4. This beauty instrument is similar to the beauty instrument 2 shown in fig. 1 to 9 except as described below. Thus, the cosmetic device 4 includes at least a body 300, a first side 302, a second side 304, a middle 306, a controller 307, a light source 308, a power source 309, a motor 310, a temperature control element 312, a temperature exchange member 313, a user control 314, a frame 315, a charging port 316, a first temperature sensor 317, a second temperature sensor 318, and a locking mechanism 319.

In the illustrated embodiment, the first side 302 includes a contact member 320 having a surface 322, the surface 322 being contacted by a user when using the cosmetic apparatus 4. The contacts 320 are constructed of metal in the illustrated embodiment and are used to deliver hot and/or cold compress therapy to the user. The portion of the cosmetic apparatus 4 that the user contacts to receive treatment is not the portion of the panel 324 that houses the power source 326, unlike the cosmetic apparatus 2 described above, in which the cosmetic apparatus 2 defines the surface 22 of the first side 20 by the upper portion 66 of the panel 62, the user contacts the surface 22 to receive heating and/or cooling treatment. For clarity, although in the illustrated embodiment the contacts 320 may be substantially disposed adjacent to the panel 324, these components are not integrally formed. A skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate contact member according to a particular embodiment based on various considerations, including the size and shape of the components housed within the cosmetic instrument. In various embodiments, the contact may be composed of any suitable material, including one or more of aluminum, aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, copper, stainless steel, gold, silver, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In other embodiments, a portion of the contact may be coated with a thermal film or paste. In various embodiments, the contact surface diameter is between about 1 cm and about 15 cm, between about 2 cm and about 10 cm, and between about 3 cm and about 6 cm.

The contact 320 also includes a first leg 328 and a second leg 330 located on a distal end 332 of the contact 320 opposite the user contacting surface 322. The first bracket 328 and the second bracket 330 form a chamber 334, and a temperature control element 312 is disposed within the chamber 334. The temperature control element 312 is positioned within the chamber 334 such that the temperature control element 312 is directly adjacent to the surface 322 for user contact to receive heat and/or cold therapy. Because the contacts 320 are in close proximity to the surface 322, this arrangement allows for efficient and effective delivery of hot and/or cold compress therapy to the user through the surface 322. A skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate contact based on various considerations, including the shape and size of the temperature control element. In other embodiments, an intermediate connection may be provided between the contact member and the temperature control element. In various embodiments, the contact may include zero, one, three, or more than three legs. In alternative embodiments, the contact member may not define a chamber, and the temperature-control element may be secured to the contact member by an adhesive, a mechanical attachment, or some other mechanism.

Finally, in the illustrated embodiment, the temperature exchange member 313 is directly attached to the frame 315 or is coupled to the frame 315. This embodiment does not include the support member included in the cosmetic apparatus 2.

Fig. 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28 illustrate another example cosmetic instrument 6. This beauty instrument 6 is similar to the beauty instrument 4 shown in fig. 13 to 21 except as described below. Thus, the cosmetic device 6 includes at least a body 400 having a first side 402, a second side 404, a middle 406, a light source (not shown), a motor (not shown), a temperature control element (not shown), user controls 410, a charging port 411, and a locking mechanism 412.

In this embodiment, the cosmetic instrument 6 is partially covered with a silicone housing 414. More specifically, the silicone shell 414 extends to form a portion of the second side 404 and the middle portion 406. The outer surface 418 of the silicone shell 414 includes at least a portion of the surface of the second side 404 and the intermediate portion 406. The silicone housing 414 is a unitary component in the illustrated embodiment.

the silicone housing 414 also defines a cutout 415 in a central portion 424 of the second side 404. The cutout 415 is substantially circular. The central portion 424 is substantially circular in shape and allows the temperature exchange member 416 to be touched by a user; in particular, the second outer surface 422 of the second side 404 includes a portion of the temperature exchange member 416 that may be contacted by a user. Temperature exchange component 416 may be composed of any of the materials described above for temperature exchange component 112. A logo or symbol may also be provided on the temperature exchange member 416.

An outer surface 418 of the silicone shell 414 that forms a portion of the second side 404 defines a set of protrusions 426 that extend from the first side 402. In the illustrated embodiment, each of the set of protrusions 426 is integrally formed with the second side 404 (i.e., the silicone housing 414). Each of the raised points of the set of projections 426 is also constructed of the same material as the outer surface 418 in the illustrated embodiment. However, in other embodiments, the set of protrusions may be attached to the second side and/or the silicone housing by any mechanical attachment and/or by using an adhesive. Or in other embodiments, some of the raised points of the set of projections may be integrally formed with the second side and/or silicone shell, and the remainder may be attached to the second side and/or silicone shell.

Each raised point of set of projections 426 includes an upper surface 426a having a diameter. In the illustrated embodiment, the diameters of the various upper surfaces 426a are not uniform. Generally, the diameter of the upper surface 426a of the set of projections 426 proximate the central portion 424 is smaller than the diameter of the upper surface 426a of the set of projections 426 distal from the central portion 424. However, in various embodiments, the set of projections may be composed of any material and may have any arrangement. A skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate bump material and arrangement according to the particular example based on various considerations, including the size and shape of the second side and the function of the device. In various embodiments, the raised dots can be comprised of any suitable material. In other embodiments, the raised dots may be coated with gold, nickel, platinum, and/or other similar materials. In various embodiments, a portion of the raised points may be formed from one material and the remainder of the raised points may be formed from another material. In other embodiments, any portion of the second side can be provided with raised points, including between about 5% and 90% of the surface, between about 25% and 70% of the surface, and between about 40% and 55% of the surface of the second side. In various embodiments, one or more of the raised points of the set of projections may have a height of between about 0.1 millimeters and 6 centimeters, a height of between about 2 millimeters and 3 centimeters, and a height of between about 5 millimeters and 1 centimeter. In various embodiments, one or more of the raised points of the set of projections may have a diameter of between about 0.01 millimeters and 5 centimeters, a diameter of between about 0.1 millimeters and 2.5 centimeters, and a diameter of between about 5 millimeters and 1 centimeter.

In addition, the beauty instrument 6 shown in fig. 22 to 28 includes a temperature control element that cannot provide cooling treatment. Indeed, in the illustrated embodiment, the temperature control element can only heat the first side 402 of the device by releasing heat to the first side 402, and cannot reduce its temperature. However, the beauty instrument 6 is still capable of emitting vibrations through the motor and a number of different colors of light (including red, green and blue) through the light source 408. However, in various embodiments, the temperature control element is capable of reducing the temperature of the first side 402 and thereby providing cold compress therapy to the first side 402.

Fig. 29 is a flow chart of an example method 500 of using a cosmetic device and a cosmetic accessory (e.g., mask 200). By demonstrating this approach with a cosmetic instrument and cosmetic accessory, the user's body, such as the face and/or neck, can be treated. The method may also be used to treat any part of the human body.

An initial step 502 includes contacting a cosmetic accessory (e.g., the mask 200) with a first side of a cosmetic apparatus, such as the first side 20 of the cosmetic apparatus 2. In various other approaches, any suitable cosmetic accessory and/or cosmetic instrument may be selected, including cosmetic instrument 4 and/or cosmetic instrument 6. In a different approach, one or more cosmetic accessories may be placed in contact with the first side simultaneously.

another step 504 includes securing the mask 200 to the first side 20 of the cosmetic apparatus 2 via a locking mechanism (e.g., locking mechanism 50). The locking mechanism 50 is placed over the mask 200 and inserted into a recess (e.g., recess 24) along with a portion of the mask 200. In various other embodiments, the mask may be secured to the cosmetic apparatus 2 by any physical mechanism or by an adhesive.

Another step 506 includes activating the cosmetic apparatus 2 by pressing a user control (e.g., user control 72) to prepare the cosmetic apparatus 2 for use.

Another step 508 includes selecting an appropriate treatment mode, such as one, two, three, four, five, or six of any of the treatment modes described above, or any other appropriate treatment mode. The treatment mode may be selected via the user control 72. The indication of the selection of a particular treatment mode may be communicated to the user by a light source (e.g., light source 100) that may emit different patterns, colors, or flashes to indicate various treatment modes.

Another step 510 includes placing the cosmetic apparatus 2 in contact with or adjacent to the skin of the user. This is done so that the cosmetic apparatus 2 can treat the skin by light emitted by the light source 100, vibration and/or pulsation emitted by the motor (e.g., motor 80), and/or hot and/or cold compress treatment generated by the temperature control element (e.g., temperature control element 110).

Another step 512 includes deactivating the cosmetic device 2. The beauty instrument 2 will indicate the activation of the deactivation command by a certain number of vibrations lasting a certain time, or a certain pattern of vibrations, or by emitting a certain number of lights lasting a certain time in a certain pattern, or by emitting one or more lights of a certain color. Deactivation of the cosmetic apparatus 2 may occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by operation of the user controls 72.

It is noted that while it is advantageous to perform the method 500 in the order illustrated and described. However, any other order is suitable.

Fig. 30 is a flow chart of an exemplary method 600 of verifying authenticity of a cosmetic device. The method can be performed to identify the authenticity of a specific beauty instrument.

However, in other embodiments, any suitable cosmetic instrument and/or controller may be used, including cosmetic instrument 4 and/or cosmetic instrument 6. The connection may be via wireless or wired connection.

Another step 604 includes having the second device select a particular test for execution by the cosmetic instrument. These tests may include one or more of a motor test, a battery test, a temperature control element test, and/or a light source test in various embodiments. However, in other embodiments, any suitable test may be performed.

Another step 606 includes performing one or more tests selected in step 604.

Another step 608 includes determining that the test performed by the cosmetic instrument and/or its controller in step 606 failed. In this case, the cosmetic instrument will be prevented from transmitting information relating to the cosmetic instrument to the second device. In other embodiments, the cosmetic device may be disabled temporarily or permanently after a test fails to be performed.

Another step 610 includes determining that the skin care device and/or its controller has passed the test performed in step 606.

Another step 612 includes sending data from the cosmetic instrument to the second device. The transmitted data typically consists of information relating to the cosmetic device and may include one or more of the following: a chip ID of the cosmetic instrument, information related to a battery of the cosmetic instrument, a media access control ("MAC") address of the cosmetic instrument, and/or a serial number of the cosmetic instrument. However, in any embodiment, any relevant information may be communicated to the second device.

Optionally, another step 614 includes sending data from the second device to the additional device. The additional devices may include one or more of: personal computers, tablets, mobile phones, databases, servers, and/or other suitable devices.

It is noted that although it is advantageous to perform the method 600 in the order illustrated and described. However, any other order is suitable.

In all instances, the cosmetic device and its various components may be constructed of any suitable materials, including known and later developed materials. The skilled artisan will be able to select the appropriate material for a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the size and shape of the cosmetic instrument, the motor that the cosmetic instrument houses, the power source that the cosmetic instrument houses, and the particular temperature control element that is used.
