Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a massage chair, in particular to a three-dimensional massage machine in the massage chair. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the known three-dimensional massage machines use a motor as a driving source to drive the corresponding mechanism to move the forward and backward movement of the massage actuator. The three-dimensional massage machine with this structure is technically complex and costly to control the displacement of the massage actuator and the massage intensity of the human body. In order to solve the problem of the small displacement of the massage actuator, some people have proposed to solve it by lengthening the massage arm in the massage actuator. However, in order to ensure the reliability of the mechanism operation and the service life of the product, lengthening the massage arm will inevitably increase the strength and rigidity requirements of the massage arm. In addition, in order to accommodate a longer massage arm, the overall size of the massage movement needs to be increased accordingly.

[0003] There is also a three-dimensional massage machine in the prior art that uses an airbag to drive a massage execution device to move back and forth to achieve massage of the head, back, buttocks and other parts of the human body. For example: The Chinese invention patent with the authorization announcement number CN102462604B discloses a three-dimensional massage machine, which includes a lifting device, a forward tilting device and a kneading and tapping device that are connected to each other, and the kneading and tapping device is a massage execution device; the lower part of the kneading and tapping device is connected to the lower part of the lifting device through a rotating shaft, and the kneading and tapping device can be rotated to a certain angle; the push-out airbag is installed on the forward tilting device, and the upper part of the forward tilting device is connected to the upper part of the kneading and tapping device through the push-out airbag. The inflation and deflation of the push-out airbag is controlled by the reversing magnetic valve group, and the kneading and tapping device is driven to move back and forth by the expansion and contraction of the push-out airbag, so as to achieve a flexible massage of the back with various techniques. Compared with a three-dimensional massage machine that uses a motor as a driving source and realizes the forward and backward movement of a massage execution device through a mechanism transmission, the three-dimensional massage machine that uses an ejection airbag simplifies the structure and makes the massage effect softer and more comfortable. However, the kneading and tapping device in the three-dimensional massage machine can still only rotate around a fixed center, and its action is single. The forward and backward displacement of the kneading and tapping device is limited by the structural size of the kneading and tapping device (the distance from the massage head to the center of the rotating shaft) and the expansion and contraction amount of the ejection airbag, resulting in a small forward and backward displacement of the kneading and tapping device. Moreover, when the ejection airbag contracts, the kneading and tapping device does not reset backward accordingly, and needs to be achieved by adding a reset mechanism. Summary of the invention

[0052] The present invention provides a three-dimensional massage machine for installation in a massage chair, which can massage the head, back, buttocks and other parts of the human body. Figures 1 to 3As shown, the three-dimensional massage machine involved in the present invention includes a machine base 10 and a massage execution device 20. The massage execution device 20 is rotatably and slidably installed on the machine base 10, so that the massage execution device 20 can rotate around a center line extending left and right; the left and right sides of the massage execution device 20 are hinged with hinge supports 30, and the hinge supports 30 are provided with support guide grooves 31 that pass through the front and back. The inner walls on the left and right sides of the machine base 10 are fixed with guide rails 40 that extend forward and backward, and the guide rails 40 are slidably matched with the support guide grooves 31. In the above three-dimensional massage machine, the massage actuator 20 can rotate around a center line extending left and right, and the hinge structure between the hinge support 30 and the massage actuator 20 avoids interference with the rotation of the massage actuator 20; at the same time, the hinge support 30 can slide along the extension direction of the guide rail 40 through the sliding cooperation between the guide rail 40 and the support guide groove 31, so that the massage actuator 20 slides along the guide rail 40 together with the hinge support 30, and the massage actuator 20 as a whole can slide in the direction close to or away from the human body, so the massage actuator 20 can both rotate and slide, and its movements are rich, making the massage effect better, softer and more comfortable. In this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the hinge support 30 is hinged to the massage execution device 20 via a rotating shaft portion 32 extending left and right.

[0053] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, the massage actuator 20 is rotatably mounted on the base 10 via a bearing 70. The bearing 70 is connected to the left and right sides of the massage actuator 20. Therefore, the bearing 70 and the hinge support 30 are arranged on the same side of the massage actuator 20. The massage actuator 20 can rotate around the central axis of the bearing 70. The central axis of the bearing 70 is the rotation centerline of the massage actuator 20.

[0054] The three-dimensional massage machine further includes a pneumatic system 50 installed in the machine base 10, and the pneumatic system 50 drives the massage execution device 20 to rotate and slide. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the pneumatic system 50 includes an air source 51, a first air bag 52, a second air bag 53, a first air valve 54 for controlling the inflation and deflation of the first air bag 52, and a second air valve 55 for controlling the inflation and deflation of the second air bag 53. The first air bag 52 and the second air bag 53 are distributed on both sides of the rotation center line of the massage execution device 20, that is, on both sides of the bearing 70. The first air bag 52 and the second air bag 53 are both connected to the air source 51 through a connecting air pipe 57. The first air bag 52 and the second air bag 53 are both arranged at the bottom of the massage execution device 20 and are used to push the massage execution device 20. The pneumatic system 50 drives the massage execution device 20 to move, so as to Figure 4 The massage execution device 20 has the following working states from the perspective of the view shown: 1. The first air valve 54 controls the inflation of the first air bag 52, and the second air valve 55 controls the deflation of the second air bag 53. Figure 4As shown in a, the pneumatic system 50 drives the massage actuator 20 to swing clockwise around the bearing 70, and the massage actuator 20 tilts backward and away from the human body, so that the massage force becomes weaker; 2. The first air valve 54 controls the first air bag 52 to deflate, and the second air valve 55 controls the second air bag 53 to inflate, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 2 , the pneumatic system 50 drives the massage actuator 20 to swing counterclockwise around the bearing 70, and the massage actuator 20 leans forward and approaches the human body, so that the massage force becomes stronger; 3.

Figure 4 As shown in c, the pneumatic system 50 drives the massage actuator 20 to move forward. Figure 5 As shown, the hinge support 30 drives the massage actuator 20 to slide forward along the guide rail 40, pushes the massage actuator 20 forward, and the massage actuator 20 as a whole is close to the human body. Therefore, the pneumatic system 50 can realize a variety of actions of the massage actuator 20 such as swinging, sliding, or a combination of swinging and sliding. Without lengthening the length of the massage arm 24 in the massage actuator 20, the front-to-back motion range of the massage actuator 20 is increased and the actions are enriched, and the product structure is compact. In addition, in the above-mentioned pneumatic system 50, two air valves are used to control the inflation and deflation of the first airbag 52 and the second airbag 53 respectively, so that the inflation and deflation of the first airbag 52 and the second airbag 53 are independent of each other.
