Description

Face mask

The present invention relates to a face mask, and more particularly to a face mask that can be irradiated to the face surface with light of the LED of a specific wavelength.

In general, color therapy is said to be used for the purpose of skin beauty by using the influence of color on the energy of color and the wavelength of light.

Such color therapy is mainly using LED (LED) as a means for displaying the light of color. For example, a red LED having a wavelength of about 660 nm is known to have effects such as skin elasticity, blood circulation effect, and metabolic promotion of subcutaneous tissue and fat. Blue LEDs with a wavelength of about 445 nm are known to be good for acne and dry skin. Green LEDs with a wavelength of about 530 nm are known to enhance cell layer functions and to prevent aging. These red / blue / green LEDs are used for skin care purposes.

Skin care devices using LEDs having such specific wavelengths are mainly used in skin beauty salons and skin care rooms. Such a skin care device is generally composed of a stand-type light tower, and uses LEDs having a specific wavelength in the lighting unit, or combines color therapy LEDs for hand-held massage with the user's hand to massage the facial skin by hand. It is a rubbing form.

This type of skin care device shows a degree of exhibiting effect because the distance between LED irradiation of a specific wavelength reaching the facial skin in the case of the former is so far that the specific wavelength has a very low influence on the stained skin. Inappropriate. In the latter case, the user is very suitable for managing the facial skin with a specific wavelength of the LED that is emitted inside while the user rubs the ion massage surface on the facial skin. Problems are pointed out.

Further, as is known, the pre-registered 20-0396456 "Face Skin Rejuvenate" (hereinafter referred to as "Potential Design 1") irradiates LED skin and ultrasonic waves of a specific wavelength to the facial skin, and is used for iontophoresis. By applying micro current, it promotes metabolism of cell tissue and achieves cosmetic purpose. However, the surface of the laser LED is formed on the inner side of the mask so that the laser LED comes into contact with the face surface. Therefore, since each of the LEDs is emitted and irradiated in contact with the surface of the face, only a specific surface of the face is managed and the entire face cannot be irradiated with laser light. On the other hand, each LED light is irradiated as it is without the light emitted by the LED for the laser as it irradiates a part of the face as it can not enhance the facial skin care effect using the laser light.

In other words, in order to care for the skin by irradiating the facial skin with color light by the laser LED, the position of the LED should be located close to the face surface (usually known as about 16mm). In order to apply the micro current for iontophoresis to the face surface, the design of the reference 1 is designed so that the mask touches the face surface, and the LEDs also touch the face surface, so the skin care by ion micro current may be excellent. Skin care by the effect will be very small.

In addition, when looking at the line registration No. 20-0385276 "beauty massage mask" (hereinafter referred to as "quotation design 2") has a heating wire, air pad and laser light inside the mask. Even in this case, the position of the laser light is located on the face surface, but in terms of the contents, if the mask needs to contract and expand to fit the facial skeleton, an opaque bag is naturally required, and the heating wire and air pad must be installed in the bag, so the laser lamp Because of its opaque pouch, it is very difficult to irradiate the face, which reduces the skin care effect of the laser light.

In addition, according to the pre-registered 20-0403033 "portable skin care device for skin pack" (hereinafter referred to as "quoting design 3"), the galvanic ion current is applied to the skin pack, in this case, the laser wavelength or LED wavelength of a specific wavelength Since it is not irradiated on the face surface, it cannot be used for skin care by LEDs, and in particular, it is difficult to manufacture because the skin pack must be formed to flow an ion current.

In particular, the laser light used in these pre-registered contents is mainly used for therapeutic purposes in dermatology and the like, and the controller for controlling the laser light is very expensive, and the laser LED is also expensive, and thus the product price is very high. .

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a face mask that allows light from an LED of a specific wavelength to be selectively irradiated evenly on the face surface.

In order to achieve the above object, the facial mask according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, covering the remaining parts of the face, except for the eyes, nose, mouth area, the front surface is arranged so that a plurality of light emitting sources on the inner side facing the face cover; A diffusion cover that covers the rest of the face except for the eyes, nose, and mouth, and is provided on the output light region side of the plurality of light emitting sources with respect to the front cover, and diffuses light from the plurality of light emitting sources; And an eye frame coupled with the front cover and the diffusion cover, and blocking the light directed toward the eye region of the user among the emitted light of the plurality of light emitting sources.

Preferably, the front cover or the diffusion cover is formed with a cutout in the longitudinal direction at the center.

Further includes an operation panel, and the plurality of light emitting sources are driven in accordance with an operation on the operation panel.

The first wavelength band is 360-380 nm, the second wavelength band is 650-700 nm, and the third wavelength band is 800-850 nm.

The operation panel includes a key input member capable of selecting a mode, wherein the key input member controls the light emission of the first light emitting element and the second light emitting element, and the second light emitting element and the third light emitting element. At least one of the second modes of controlling the emission light is selected.

The first mode includes a first lighting mode for lighting the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device, and a first flashing mode for blinking the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device, and the second mode includes the second light emitting device. And a second lighting mode for lighting the third light emitting device, and a second flashing mode for blinking the second light emitting device and the third light emitting device.

When the first flashing mode is selected, the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device flash alternately. When the second flashing mode is selected, the second light emitting device and the third light emitting device flash alternately.

The diffusion cover is coated with a cleaning material on the side facing the face, and the cleaning mode for removing contaminants on the face is activated by manipulation of the operation panel.

When the cleaning mode is activated, only the first light emitting device is turned on, and the first light emitting device has a wavelength band of 360 to 380 nm.

The face mask of the present invention includes a front cover 20, a diffusion cover 30, and an eye frame 40.

The front cover 20 is formed to cover the rest of the face, except for the eyes, nose, mouth area. A cutout 26a is formed in the center of the outer side of the front cover 20 in the longitudinal direction, and a cutout 26b is formed in the center of the inner side of the front cover 20 in the longitudinal direction. Since the face (or face) size may be slightly different for each user who uses the face mask, the incisions 26a and 26b are provided for this purpose. The incisions 26a and 26b allow the front cover 20 to be slightly retracted or slightly open. For example, the front cover 20 may be made of ABS resin.

On the inner side of the front cover 20, a plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 are arranged to face the face. That is, a plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 are provided on the flexible circuit board 76. For example, the light emitting source 70 may be configured as an LED having a wavelength band of about 360 ~ 380nm. The light emitting source 72 may be configured as an LED having a wavelength band of about 650 to 700 nm. The light emitting source 74 may be configured as an LED having a wavelength band of about 800 to 850 nm. Usually, light in the wavelength range of about 800 to 850 nm can penetrate deeper into the skin than light in the wavelength range of about 650 to 700 nm. Here, the light emitting sources 70, 72, and 74 are each composed of a plurality of LEDs. An example of the first light emitting device described in the Utility Model Registration Claim of the present invention may be referred to as a light emitting source 70, an example of the second light emitting device may be referred to as a light emitting source 72, An example may be referred to as a light emitting source 74. The plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 are driven in accordance with operations on the operation panel to be described later.

Ring portions 24a and 24b are formed at the left end and the right end of the front cover 20. An elastic band (not shown) or the like is coupled to the ring portions 24a and 24b. The user can wear the face mask on the face by an elastic band or the like.

The diffusion cover 30 is formed to cover the rest of the face except for the eyes, nose and mouth. The diffusion cover 30 is provided on the emission light region side of the plurality of light emitting sources with respect to the front cover 20. The diffusion cover 30 diffuses the light from the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74. That is, since the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 may be formed of LEDs such as point light sources, in this case, the light of the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 is diffused using the diffusion cover 30. The light should be evenly distributed on the user's face.

A cutout 34a is formed in the center of the outer surface of the diffusion cover 30 in the longitudinal direction, and a cutout 34b is formed in the center of the inner surface of the diffusion cover 30 in the longitudinal direction. Since the face (or face) size of the user using the face mask may be slightly different, the incisions 34a and 34b are provided for this purpose. The incisions 34a and 34b allow the diffusion cover 30 to be slightly closed or slightly open. For example, the diffusion cover 30 may be made of acrylic material.

On the other hand, the diffusion cover 30 is coated with a cleaning material (for example, titanium dioxide) (not shown) on a surface facing the face (for example, the surface coming into contact with the face) with a predetermined thickness. The coating method of such a cleaning material can be fully understood by those skilled in the art.

When the user operates the operation panel to activate the cleaning mode, the cleaning material is activated to remove contaminants and the like on the face side. Here, when the cleaning mode is activated, only the light emitting source 70 is turned on among the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, and 74, and the wavelength band of the light emitting source 70 is preferably about 360 to 380 nm.

The eye frame 40 is coupled with the front cover 20 and the diffusion cover 30. The eye frame 40 prevents light directed toward the user's eyes from the light emitted from the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, and 74. Preferably, the eye frame 40 may be made of silicon rubber.

The eye frame 40 includes a frame main body 44 into which the front cover 20 and the diffusion cover 30 are fitted, and extends upwardly from the center of the frame main body 44, and a locking jaw 42a is formed at an upper end thereof. An extension 42 and a nose cover 46 covering the user's nose. In addition, the frame body 44 has a coupling groove 45 into which the front cover 20 and the diffusion cover 30 are fitted.

An example of a coupling method between the front cover 20, the diffusion cover 30, and the eye frame 40 will be described below.

First, the front cover 20 and the eye frame 40 are coupled to each other. In this case, it is assumed that the front cover 20 is provided with a plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 on the circuit board 76. In other words, the contact ends 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d, 22e, 22f, 22g, 22h, 22i and 22j of the front cover 20 are engaged with the engaging groove 45 of the eye frame 40. In addition, the extension portion 42 of the eye frame 40 is brought into contact with the forehead center portion of the front cover 20 and the contact ends 21a and 21b of the front cover 20 are extended to the eye frame 40. It is coupled to the engaging jaw (42a) of (42).

Thereafter, the diffusion cover 30 is coupled to the assembly in which the front cover 20 and the eye frame 40 are coupled to each other. That is, the contact ends 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d, 32e, 32f, 32g, 32h, 32i, and 32j of the diffusion cover 30 are coupled to the engaging groove 45 of the eye frame 40. In addition, the extension 42 of the eye frame 40 is brought into contact with the center of the forehead of the diffusion cover 30 and the contact ends 31a and 31b of the diffusion cover 30 are extended to the eye frame 40. It is coupled to the engaging jaw (42a) of (42).

In this manner, the facial mask 10 may be finally combined as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3. In this case, the arrangement of the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, 74 with respect to the user's face is as illustrated in FIG. 4.

In addition, a fastening member such as a screw may be used for more firm coupling between the front cover 20 and the diffusion cover 30 and the eye frame 40. That is, by additionally installing a screw hole 43 to which the fastening member such as a screw can be coupled to the locking step 42a and the frame main body 44 as shown in FIG. 3, the fastening member such as the screw is screw hole 43. When combined with, it becomes a stronger bond.

5 is a view showing a system for operating a face mask according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 is a block diagram applied to the embodiment of the present invention.

The face mask 10 of the present invention is connected to the operation panel 50 through a cable 80. The face mask 10 is operated by the operation panel 50. The operation panel 50 includes an input unit 52, a timer 54, a display unit 56, a charging unit 58, a driving unit 60, and a control unit 62.

The input unit 52 includes a key input member, and mode selection is performed by the key input member. Herein, the mode is a first mode in which only the light source 70 and the light source 72 emit light among the plurality of light sources 70, 72, 74, and the plurality of light sources 70, 72, 74. The light emitting source 72 and the light emitting source 74 includes a second mode to emit light. That is, the first mode or the second mode is selected by the key input member.

Meanwhile, the first mode may be subdivided into a first lighting mode for turning on the light source 70 and the light source 72, and a first flashing mode for blinking the light source 70 and the light source 72. Here, when the first flashing mode is selected, the light emitting source 70 and the light emitting source 72 alternately flash. By alternately blinking, heat generated by the light emitting sources 70 and 72 is reduced by about 1/2, and energy consumption can be reduced by about 1/2.

The second mode may be subdivided into a second lighting mode for lighting the light source 72 and the light source 74, and a second flashing mode for blinking the light source 72 and the light source 74. Here, it is preferable that the light emitting source 72 and the light emitting source 74 flash alternately when the second flashing mode is selected. By alternately blinking, heat generated by the light emitting sources 72 and 74 is reduced by about 1/2, and energy consumption can be reduced by about 1/2.

In addition, the input unit 52 may select a cleaning mode for removing contaminants in the face portion.

The input unit 52 may input an activation time of the first mode, the second mode, and the cleaning mode. Of course, the activation time of the first mode, the second mode, and the cleaning mode may be set in advance, but it may be better to allow it to be changed by the user.

Timer 54 clocks time. That is, the timer 54 counts the activation times of the first and second modes and the cleaning mode. For example, if the user selects the first mode and sets its activation time to 10 minutes, the timer 54 clocks the time to indicate whether the 10 minutes have elapsed.

The display unit 56 displays the type of the currently selected mode, the activation time under the mode (for example, a preset time or a time variable by the user), a time being displayed, and the like.

The charging unit 58 charges power to a battery (not shown) provided in the operation panel 50. The operation panel 50 may be used by receiving power from a power plug through an adapter, or may be used in a rechargeable manner.

The driver 60 drives the light emitting source 70 (the first LED), the light emitting source 72 (the second LED), and the light emitting source 74 (the third LED) based on the driving signal from the controller 62.

The control unit 62 has control algorithms for the first mode, the second mode, and the cleaning mode. The controller 62 controls the light emitting source 70 and the light emitting source 72 to be turned on for a set activation time when the first lighting mode of the first mode is selected, and the light emitting source when the first blinking mode of the first mode is selected. 70 and the light emitting source 72 are controlled to alternately flash during the set activation time.

On the other hand, the controller 62 controls the light emitting source 72 and the light emitting source 74 to be turned on for a set activation time when the second lighting mode of the second mode is selected, and when the second flashing mode of the second mode is selected. The light source 72 and the light source 74 are controlled to flash alternately during the set activation time.

In addition, when the cleaning mode is selected, the controller 62 controls only the light emitting sources 70 among the plurality of light emitting sources 70, 72, and 74 to be turned on for a set activation time.

According to the above-described configuration, the user may select the first mode, the second mode, or the cleaning mode as necessary, and accordingly, the face mask can perform various face care such as facial skin care and sterilization. .

It should be understood, however, that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but may be modified and modified without departing from the gist of the present invention. It should be seen as belonging.
