    [0042] To more clearly describe a phototherapy device disclosed by the present invention, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings hereinafter.

    [0043] With reference to FIG. 1, there is provided an exploded diagram of a first embodiment of a phototherapy device according to the present invention. As FIG. 1 shows, the phototherapy device 100 consists of a phototherapeutic host 700 and a patch module 800, wherein the phototherapeutic host 700 can be attached to and detached from the patch module 800. In the present invention, the phototherapeutic host is particularly designed to have a modular structure comprising a base 110, a fixing means 120, a PCB 130, a plurality of electrically-conductive members 140, a lighting unit 160, a power unit 150, and a cover 170, such that the phototherapeutic host 700 can be manufactured and/or used individually. On the other hand, the patch module 800 comprising a patch sheet 190 and a connection base 180.

    [0044] As described in detail below, the fixing means 120 is connected to the base 110, and both the fixing means 120 and the base 110 have a hollow structure. Moreover, the PCB 130, comprising a driving circuit the electrically-conductive members 140, is disposed in an accommodating space 120a of the fixing means 120. From FIG. 1, it is understood that the electrically-conductive members 140 comprises a positive electrically-conductive member 140a and a negative electrically-conductive member 140b.

    [0045] The power unit 150 (i.e., a battery) is also disposed in an accommodating space 120a so as to electrically connect the positive electrically-conductive member 140a and the negative electrically-conductive member 140b by a positive electrode 150a and the negative electrode 150b thereof. Moreover, the lighting unit 160 is disposed on the PCB 130 so as to be located between the PCB 130 and the base 110. As FIG. 1 shows, the lighting unit 160 is electrically connected to the driving circuit, and consists of three LED components. In addition, the cover 170 is assembled with the base 110 by connecting to the fixing means 120, so as to cover the power unit 150, the PCB 130, the lighting unit 160, the fixing means 120, and the base 110.

    [0046] The patch module 800 is used for patching onto a user's skin or a specific part of human body by the patch sheet 190 thereof. In the present invention, the patch module 800 is assembled with the phototherapeutic host 700 by letting the connection base 180 be connected with the base 110 through an interlocking mechanism, a rotary locking mechanism or a magnetic lock mechanism. For example, it is able to firstly dispose the connection base 180 on the patch sheet 190, and then letting the connection base 180 and the base 110 be connected to each other. Of course, by the use of the connection base 180, the patch sheet 190 of the patch module 800 can also be located between the connection base 180 and the base 110. It is worth noting that, there is some medical material coated on a surface of the patch sheet 190. When the phototherapy device 100 is used, a light therapy effect is achieved on an acupuncture point of the user, wherein the light therapy effect is made by a specific light emitted from the lighting unit 160 in combination with the medical material. Therefore, the patch sheet 190 is formed with a light passing portion 190a for the specific light. In one embodiment, the said light passing portion 190a can be made of a transparent material so as to be disposed in the patch sheet 190. Moreover, the light passing portion 190a can also be an opening directly formed on the patch sheet 190.

    [0047] It is worth further explaining that, by letting the connection base 180 and/or the base 110 be made of a magnetic material, this phototherapy device 100 can be operated to achieve a light therapy on a specific part of human body in combination with a magnetic force (field).

    [0048] When assembling the phototherapeutic host 700, the fixing means 120 is connected with the base 110, and the PCB 130 is subsequently disposed in the accommodating space 120a of the fixing means 120. After that, the electrically-conductive members 140 are disposed on the PCB 130. FIG. 1 depicts that the fixing means 120 is embedded into the base 110, and the power unit 150 is also disposed in the accommodating space 120a for electrically connecting the electrically-conductive members 140. Consequently, the cover 170 is connected to the base 110 for covering the power unit 150, the PCB 130, the lighting unit 160, and the base 110. Therefore, the assembly of the phototherapeutic host 700 is completed, such that the phototherapeutic host 700 has a modular structure consisting the base 110, the fixing means 120, the PCB 130, the electrically-conductive members 140, the lighting unit 160, the power unit 150, and the cover 170. Moreover, the cover 170 is also used for protecting each of the several units, and is detachable.

    [0049] Beside protecting each of the several units, the cover 170 is also configured for being an activating switch of the lighting unit 160. In one embodiment, the cover 170 is made of a flexible and electrically-isolative material. Therefore, after pressing the cover 170, the power unit 150 moves to make the positive electrically-conductive member 140a and the negative electrically-conductive member 140b form a short circuit on the circuit of the PCB 130. In such case, the driving circuit is configured to drive the lighting unit 160 to emit a specific light for radiating the base 110. Of course, the driving circuit can also be used to change or modulate a light intensity and/or a wavelength band of the specific light. In one embodiment, the power unit 150 is a rechargeable battery, such as thin film battery, fuel cell or button battery. FIG. 1 shows that the negative electrically-conductive member 140b is a metal spring leaf After the pressing force applied on the cover 170 is released, the metal spring leaf would have a spring back.
