SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a hyperhidrosis treatment apparatus which has a contact part detachably mounted so that the contact part can be easily replaced with a new one.
To accomplish the above object, according to the present invention, there is provided a hyperhidrosis treatment apparatus including: a probe which gets in contact with a user's skin, a contact part which is mounted at one side of the probe and of which one side gets in contact with the user's skin and the other side gets in contact with a thermoelectric element, and an upper case and a lower case to which the contact part is mounted, wherein the contact part includes: a cooling contact part which gets in contact with the thermoelectric element; and a skin contact part which gets in contact with the user's skin and is bent at a predetermined angle so that the probe penetrates therethrough and the cooling contact part and the skin contact part are joined to each other in a detachable manner.
Moreover, the cooling contact part is formed in a plate type, and includes: a first main body which gets in contact with the thermoelectric element; a flat part which is formed at one side of the first main body and is thinner than the first main body and whose bottom side extends to the first main body uniformly; and a joining part which protrudes on the flat part, is lower than the first main body and is dented relative to the direction that the skin contact part is joined. The skin contact part includes: a second main body bent at a predetermined angle, the second main body having one side joined with the cooling contact part and the other side through which the probe penetrates; a flat part which is formed at one side of the second main body and is thinner than the second main body and whose upper side extends uniformly; and an insertion protrusion part which protrudes on the bottom side of the flat part toward the cooling contact part and is lower than the second main body.
Furthermore, the insertion protrusion part of the second main body comes into contact with the flat part of the first main body and is inserted into a dented portion of the joining part, the bottom side of the flat part of the second main body abuts on the upper side of the joining part of the first main body, and the flat part of the first main body and the flat part of the second main body have the same length, so that the cooling contact part and the skin contact part come into close contact with each other when the first main body is joined to the second main body.
Additionally, the hyperhidrosis treatment apparatus further includes a pressing part which is arranged at one side of the lower case to press the contact part toward the lower case, and the pressing part includes: a roller part which presses a part of the contact part to which the first main body and the second main body are joined; and a support part on which the roller part is rotatably mounted.
In addition, the support part includes: a support part main body of a plate type; and vertical parts which are formed in the vertical direction to one side of the support part main body and have a pair of plate bodies spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval, and the roller part includes: a rotating pin which is rotatably mounted between the vertical parts; and a roller which is mounted on the rotating pin. An elastic pressing part is mounted on the outer surface of the roller in order to press the joined portion between the first main body and the second main body.
Furthermore, the lower case includes: a first fixing pole which is mounted at one side of the lower case to abut on the side of the support part main body; and a second fixing pole which is mounted on the bottom side of the support part main body. The first fixing pole is inserted into a groove part formed at one side of the support part main body, and a fixture is inserted into the second fixing pole through a through hole formed in the support part main body.
Additional features and advantages of the present invention will be shown in the following description, will be apparent by the following description, and will be known well through practice of the present invention.
It will be understood that words or terms used in the specification and claims shall not be interpreted as the meaning defined in commonly used dictionaries. It will be further understood that the words or terms should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the technical idea of the invention basing upon the principle that an inventor can properly define the concepts of words in order to describe his or her own invention in the best way.
The hyperhidrosis treatment apparatus according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention enables the user to easily replace the contact part with a new one.
