Unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.
[0042] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings.
[0043] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present invention discloses a neck massager 20, comprising a wearing bracket 21 and a massage head 10. The wearing bracket 21 is for wearing on the human neck. The wearing bracket 21 includes an inner side and an outer side, wherein the inner side is the side of the wearing bracket facing the human neck. The massage head 10 is located on the inner side of the wearing bracket 21 and includes a base 11 and an elastic connector 22. One end of the elastic connector 22 is provided on the base 11, and the elastic connector 22 is eccentrically arranged relative to the center of the base 11. The other end of the elastic connector 22 is connected to the inner side of the wearing bracket 21 to achieve a movable connection between the massage head 10 and the wearing bracket 21. The movable connection between the massage head 10 and the wearing bracket 21 includes at least a swing connection. The swing connection includes at least the base 11 being able to swing relative to the wearing bracket 21 in the circumferential direction of the base 11, or the base 11 being able to swing relative to the wearing bracket 21 in the circumferential direction of the base 11, or the base 11 being able to float relative to the wearing bracket 21 along the axial direction of the base 11.
[0044] The elastic connector 22 is positioned eccentrically relative to the center of the base 11, forming a first swing arm and a second swing arm on either side of the base 11 corresponding to the elastic connector 22. The first swing arm is longer than the second swing arm. The massage head 10 includes a vibrator 13 mounted on the first swing arm. When the vibrator 13 vibrates, the massage head 10 swings about the elastic connector 22.
[0045] It should be noted that the length of the second swing arm can be 0, that is, the elastic connecting member 22 is arranged at the end of the base 11. As a result, the length of the first swing arm reaches the maximum, with a longer swing arm, and thus a greater slapping force.
[0046] The neck massager 20 of the embodiment of the present invention is provided with an elastic connector 22 on the base 11, and the massage head 10 is connected to the wearing bracket 21 by using the elastic connector 22. Since the elastic connector 22 is eccentrically arranged relative to the center of the base 11, when the neck contacts the massage head 10 during wearing, the massage head 10 can swing with the elastic connector 22 as the fulcrum under the force applied by the neck, thereby making the massage head 10 have a larger lever arm and better swinging characteristics.
[0047] Since the length of the first swing arm is greater than that of the second swing arm, the massage head 10 has better swinging characteristics. When the vibrating member 13 vibrates, the amplitude of the vibration of the massage head 10 will increase due to the biased elastic connecting member 22, forming a patting massage effect on the neck, which can prevent the problem of numbness of the massage body caused by long-term contact vibration, and can increase the massage intensity and enhance the massage effect.
[0048] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to enhance the massage effect, the number of massage heads 10 can be an even number. When the number of massage heads 10 is an even number, the even number of massage heads 10 are spaced apart along the direction around the neck of the wearer's bracket 21, and the even number of massage heads 10 are symmetrically arranged relative to the center of the neck massager 20. The elastic connectors 22 on the base 11 on both sides of the symmetrical center of the neck massager 20 are eccentrically arranged on the base 11 in a direction away from the symmetrical center. It is understandable that the number of massage heads 10 can be two, four, six, eight or more. For example, Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The neck massager 20 in the figure shows a case where there are two massage heads 10. When there are two massage heads 10, the two massage heads 10 are spaced apart.
[0049] Specifically, for example, one massage head is a first massage head 10a, the other massage head is a second massage head 10b, the base of the first massage head 10a is a first base 11a, the elastic connector on the first base 11a is a first elastic connector 22a, and the base of the second massage head 10b is a second base 11b, the elastic connector on the second base 11b is a second elastic connector 22b. The first elastic connector 22a and the second elastic connector 22b can be respectively disposed at ends of the first base 11a and the second base 11b that are away from each other, thereby making it easier for the two massage heads 10 to buckle inward (i.e., easier to move toward each other) to accommodate users with thinner necks. In this case, in the initial state, the sides of the two massage heads 10 that are attached to the human body have a smaller curvature. Alternatively, the first elastic connector 22a and the second elastic connector 22b can be respectively arranged at the ends of the first base 11a and the second base 11b that are close to each other, so that the two massage heads 10 can be more easily turned outward to accommodate users with thicker necks. At this time, the two massage heads 10 in the initial state have a larger curvature on the side attached to the human body.
[0050] It can be seen from this that the elastic connector 22 is eccentrically set on the base 11, and the elastic connectors 22 on two adjacent bases 11 can be set close to or far apart, so that the neck massager can be suitable for user groups with different neck sizes, which is conducive to improving the applicability of the neck massager.
[0051] Furthermore, the projection of the base 11 onto a plane perpendicular to the extension direction of the massage head 10 is elliptical, and the elastic connector 22 is disposed on the axis of the major axis of the elliptical projection and is eccentric with respect to the center of the ellipse. Placing the elastic connector 22 on the axis of the major axis of the elliptical projection of the base 11 allows the elastic connector 22 to be positioned at the center of the base 11 in a direction perpendicular to the minor axis of the elliptical projection, thereby ensuring that the base 11 remains balanced in the direction perpendicular to the minor axis of the elliptical projection. This facilitates the base's swing when the base 11 is subjected to a force applied by the neck and caused to swing about the elastic connector 22 as a fulcrum.
[0052] Optionally, the elastic connector 22 is a spring or a soft rubber sleeve, and the spring or the soft rubber sleeve is hollow, so that the elastic connector 22 has better elastic force, is easier to deform, and is easier for the base 11 to swing.
[0053] Optionally, the elastic connector 22 is integrally formed with the base 11. For example, if the elastic connector is a soft rubber sleeve, the elastic connector 22 and the base 11 can be integrally formed by injection molding the elastic connector 22 onto the base 11, or by melting the elastic connector 22 and the base 11 into a single piece. This design, in which the elastic connector 22 and the base 11 are integrally formed, not only simplifies the assembly process but also improves the stability of the connection between the elastic connector 22 and the base 11.
[0054] Furthermore, the elastic connector 22 is a hollow structure having a first hollow portion. The conductive component of the massage head 10 extends through the hollow structure of the elastic connector 22 into the wearing bracket 21 for electrical connection. Optionally, the conductive component can be a conductive wire, a flexible circuit board, or a conductive column, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0055] Please also refer to Figures 2 to 3 In this embodiment, in order to effectively position the elastic connector on the base, a connecting portion 114 is provided on the side of the base 11 facing the wearing bracket 21, and the elastic connector 22 can be provided on the connecting portion 114. Specifically, the connecting portion 114 is eccentrically disposed relative to the center of the base 11, so that the elastic connector 22 can be eccentrically disposed relative to the center of the base 11.
[0056] Optionally, the connecting portion 114 may be a convex column provided on the base 11, for providing guidance for the deformation and reset of the elastic connecting member 22. It is understood that in other embodiments, the connecting portion 114 may also be a through hole provided on the base.
[0057] Furthermore, as can be seen from the foregoing, the elastic connector 22 can be a soft rubber sleeve, and the elastic connector 22 is sleeved on the connecting portion 114. Specifically, the elastic connector 22 is sleeved on the connecting portion 114 of the base 11 and connected to the connecting portion 114. At the same time, the elastic connector 22 is also connected to the wearing bracket 21, thereby realizing the connection between the base 11 and the wearing bracket 21. The wearing bracket 21 and the base 11 are connected by the soft rubber sleeve. Since the soft rubber sleeve is elastic, the base 11 can be swung relative to the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20 along the axial direction of the base 11 itself, and the base 11 can also be floated relative to the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20 along the axial direction of the base 11 itself, so that it can better fit the neck.
[0058] Furthermore, there is a distance between the other end of the elastic connector 22 connected to the inner side of the wearing bracket 21 and the connecting portion 114, so that the thickness of the other end of the elastic connector connected to the wearing bracket is smaller, so that when subjected to the force of the neck, the other end of the elastic connector connected to the wearing bracket is more likely to deform, thereby making it easier for the base 11 to float relative to the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20 along the axial direction of the base 11 itself.
[0059] Furthermore, a sunken groove is provided on the side of the base 11 facing the wearing bracket 21, and the connecting column portion is disposed in the sunken groove. One end surface of the elastic connector 22 abuts against the bottom surface of the sunken groove, and the outer peripheral surface of one end of the elastic connector 22 abuts against the inner wall surface of the sunken groove. The sunken groove provided on the base can better position the elastic connector 22, making it easier to position and set the elastic connector on the base.
[0060] See also Figure 4 In this embodiment, the vibrating member 13 is a vibration motor, which is disposed in the base 11 to drive the massage head to vibrate.
[0061] Combine Figure 5 As shown, the base 11 of the massage head 10, specifically the first swing arm, is provided with a boss 111, which is provided on the side of the base 11 facing the bracket, and the boss 111 has a second hollow portion 111a, which is connected to the interior of the base 11.
[0062] The hollow boss 111 allows for the placement of other components within the second hollow portion 111a of the boss 111, such as a vibrator 13 or a circuit board 14, thereby increasing the storage space of the massage head 10 and making the overall structure of the massage head 10 more compact. Furthermore, the wall thickness of the boss 111 can be roughly the same as the wall thickness of the interior space of the base 11, thereby forming the base 11 into a housing 113 with equal wall thickness at all locations. In this embodiment, to enable the neck massager 20 to add an electrical stimulation massage mode, the massage head 10 further includes an electrode assembly 12. The electrode assembly 12 is located on the side of the base 11 facing away from the wearing bracket 21. The electrode assembly 12 is configured to conform to the human body to output a massage current. When using electrical stimulation massage, the eccentric placement of the elastic connector 22 relative to the center of the base 11 allows the massage head to have greater swingability, thereby achieving a better fit between the massage head and the neck, providing the user with a better massage experience.
[0063] By providing a boss 111 on the base 11, when the base 11 is movably mounted on the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20 through the elastic connecting piece 22 and the base 11 moves relative to the wearing bracket 21, the boss 111 can abut against the wearing bracket 21 to limit the movable position of the base 11 relative to the wearing bracket 21, thereby effectively solving the problem of poor fit between the electrode assembly 12 and the human neck caused by excessive movable position of the base 11 relative to the wearing bracket 21, improving the fit between the massage head 10 and the human neck, and thereby enhancing the massage effect.
[0064] Furthermore, the shape of the second hollow portion 111a of the boss 111 can be adapted to the shape of the vibrating member 13, thereby facilitating the installation of the vibrating member 13. For example, when the vibrating member 13 is a vibration motor, the second hollow portion 111a of the boss 111 can be a substantially cylindrical cavity, thereby facilitating the installation of the vibration motor.
[0065] Furthermore, the boss 111 is spaced apart from the elastic connector 22. Specifically, the boss 111 is disposed on the side of the base 11 facing the bracket, and there is a certain distance between the boss 111 and the elastic connector 22. Thus, when the elastic connector 22 drives the base 11 to be movably connected relative to the inner side of the wearing bracket 21, the base 11 can have a certain amount of swinging space and floating space, so that the boss 11 does not restrict the base 11 from swinging or floating relative to the bracket.
[0066] Furthermore, the boss 111 is eccentrically positioned relative to the center of the base 11 and is located at the end of the base 11 away from the elastic connector 22. Specifically, the boss 111 can be located on the major axis of the elliptical projection of the base 11. Thus, when the base 11 is mounted on the wearing bracket 21, the boss 111 can be located at the end of the base 11 farther from the wearing bracket 21. This allows the boss 111 to both limit the swing angle of the massage head 10 by interfering with the bracket while also ensuring that the swing angle is not too small, allowing the massage head 10 to swing within a suitable angular range.
[0067] More specifically, for two adjacent massage heads 10 on the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20, the ends of the two massage heads 10 with the elastic connector 22 can be moved closer to each other, while the ends of the two massage heads 10 with the boss 111 can be moved away from each other. In other words, the elastic connector 22 is located at the proximal ends of the two adjacent massage heads 10, while the boss 111 is located at the distal ends of the two adjacent massage heads 10. This, on the one hand, limits the eversion angle of the massage heads 10 when they swing relative to the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20. On the other hand, when the user's neck contacts the massage heads 10 and the massage heads 10 are pushed toward the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20 so that the boss 111 abuts the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20, both massage heads 10 are clamped toward the user's neck, further improving the fit between the massage heads 10 and the user's neck.
[0068] In addition, the boss 111 is used to limit the opposite end of the two massage heads 10 (i.e., the end provided with the elastic connector 22) to always be the position where the massage head 10 is closest to the wearing bracket 21 of the neck massager 20, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the opposite end of the two massage heads 10 is lifted up by the user's neck and engages with the user's neck to form interference.
[0069] Massage head 10 also includes a circuit board 14, which is located within base 11 and between base 11 and electrode assembly 12. Circuit board 14 is electrically connected to electrode assembly 12. The placement of circuit board 14 within base 11 simplifies the overall wiring of massage head 10. If vibrating element 13 is a vibration motor, circuit board 14 can be electrically connected to electrode assembly 12, the vibration motor, and the battery in neck massager 20, allowing the battery in neck massager 20 to power electrode assembly 12 and the motor.
[0070] Optionally, the circuit board 14 can be any of a rigid circuit board, a flexible circuit board, or a rigid-flex circuit board. Exemplarily, the circuit board 14 is a flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board 14 can be configured to conform to the shape of the interior of the base 11, thus conserving space within the base 11. Specifically, the flexible circuit board 14 can be attached to the bottom wall of the base 11 and deform to conform to the shape of the bottom wall, thereby conserving installation space and reducing the overall thickness of the massage head 10.
[0071] To facilitate the installation of the circuit board 14 in the base 11, a support frame 15 is provided inside the base 11. The support frame 15 includes a support portion 151 and a mounting portion 152. The support portion 151 is adapted to be fixed to the inner wall surface of the base 11, and the circuit board 14 is mounted on the support portion 151. The mounting portion 152 is adapted to the shape of the second hollow portion 111a of the boss 111 and is at least partially embedded in the second hollow portion 111a of the boss 111. When the vibrator 13 is installed in the second hollow portion 111a, the mounting portion 152 can be used to mount the vibrator 13, thereby making the installation of the vibrator 13 in the second hollow portion 111a more reliable and stable.
[0072] Furthermore, the support portion 151 is provided with wiring holes 151a for passing the wires of the circuit board 14. Specifically, the support portion 151 is provided with a plurality of wiring holes 151a, through which the wires connecting the vibrator 13 or the circuit board 14 to the electrode assembly 12 can pass. It is understood that the base 11 has a corresponding wiring portion. Thus, the wires connected to the circuit board 14 within the bracket of the neck massager 20 can pass through the wiring holes 151a and out of the base 11 to electrically connect to the circuit board 14.
[0073] Furthermore, to facilitate the conductive connection between the circuit board 14 and the electrode assembly 12, the circuit board 14 is provided with a flexible conductor portion 142, which is electrically connected to the electrode assembly 12. Specifically, the flexible conductor portion 142 is provided at a side edge of the circuit board 14 and can extend from the base 11 to contact the electrode assembly 12 to achieve an electrical connection between the circuit board 14 and the electrode assembly 12. Exemplarily, the flexible conductor portion 142 can be a flexible conductive portion extending from the flexible circuit board 14.
[0074] Furthermore, a light-emitting element 141 is provided on the side of the circuit board 14 facing the electrode assembly 12. The light-emitting end of the light-emitting element 141 faces the electrode assembly 12 and emits light through the electrode assembly 12. For example, the light-emitting element 141 may be one or more LEDs integrated on the circuit board 14, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting element 141 can indicate the operating status of the neck massager 20. Alternatively, the light-emitting element 141 may be a graphene sheet, thereby expanding the light therapy function of the massage head 10.
[0075] In this embodiment, the base 11 includes a shell 113 and a cover 112. The circuit board 14 is disposed in the shell 113. The above-mentioned boss 111 and connecting portion 114 are both disposed on the side of the shell 113 facing away from the cover 112. The cover 112 is connected to the shell 113, and the electrode assembly 12 is supported on the side of the cover 112 facing away from the shell 113. Optionally, the cover 112 is snap-connected to the shell 113. The snap-connection method facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the cover 112 and the shell 113, so that when the circuit board 14, the light-emitting component 141 or the vibrating component 13 inside the shell 113 malfunction, they can be disassembled and repaired in a timely manner.
[0076] Furthermore, in order to transmit the light emitted by the light-emitting element 141 , the cover plate 112 can be a light-transmitting plate, and the light-emitting side of the cover plate 112 is matte, so that the transmitted light is more uniform, effectively avoiding the formation of light spots on the electrode assembly 12 .
[0077] Optionally, the electrode assembly 12 includes an electrode sheet 121 and a mounting ring 122, and the mounting ring 122 is detachably connected to the base 11 to press and fix the electrode sheet 121 on the base 11. The electrode sheet 121 is pressed and fixed to the base 11 using the detachably connected mounting ring 122, which facilitates assembly and disassembly of the electrode sheet 121.
[0078] Optionally, the electrode sheet 121 is a non-metallic conductive sheet, and may be a conductive film, a silicone electrode sheet, or a gel sheet. The use of a non-metallic conductive sheet is soft, allowing for better conformity to the user's neck skin during massage, improving the conformity to the user's neck skin and thereby enhancing the massage effect. Of course, in other embodiments, the electrode sheet 121 may also be a metallic conductive sheet. The electrode sheet 121 applies electrical stimulation to the human body through contact with the skin, thereby achieving a massage effect.
[0079] Furthermore, in order to achieve light transmission, the electrode sheet 121 can be a light-transmitting electrode sheet 121 or a light-transmitting portion can be provided on the electrode sheet 121. Exemplarily, the electrode sheet 121 can be a light-transmitting electrode sheet 121 so as to transmit the light emitted by the light-emitting element 141.
[0080] Exemplarily, the electrode sheet 121 is a conductive film comprising a substrate and a conductive layer. The substrate is connected to the base 11, and the conductive layer is disposed on the side of the substrate facing away from the base 11. The substrate can be waterproof to prevent sweat generated during massage from seeping into the base 11 through the conductive layer, potentially damaging electronic components such as the circuit board 14 and vibrator 13 within the base 11. The conductive layer can be formed on the substrate by coating, printing, or applying, and is electrically connected to the flexible conductor portion 142.
[0081] Furthermore, the mounting ring 122 includes an annular snap-fit portion 121a and an inner snap-fit portion 121b. The annular snap-fit portion 121a is used to snap-fit the electrode sheet 121 to the base 11, and the inner snap-fit portion 121b is used to press and fix the flexible conductor portion 142 to the cover 112.
[0082] Specifically, the mounting ring 122 can be made of an elastic material, such as rubber, or a plastic material. For example, the mounting ring 122 is made of an elastic material and has a top opening structure, the opening portion is used to expose the electrode sheet 121, and its side wall is a snap portion, which sleeves the electrode sheet 121 on the base 11, so that the electrode sheet 121 can be detachably connected to the base 11. The top of the mounting ring 122 is an inner buckle 121b, which is used to press and fix the flexible conductor portion 142 on the cover plate 112, thereby forming a contact electrical connection, which can eliminate the welding wire connection between the electrode sheet 121 and the circuit board 14, making wiring simpler. It is understandable that when the mounting ring 122 is a plastic material, the side wall of the mounting ring 122 cannot sleeve the electrode sheet 121 on the base 11 by elasticity. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a snap at the position where the side wall of the mounting ring 122 is connected to the base 11 so that the mounting ring 122 can be detachably fixed to the base 11.
[0083] In this embodiment, in order to expand the functions of the massage head 10, the massage head 10 further includes a heating plate 16, which is supported by the support portion 151 and located between the support frame 15 and the cover plate 112. The heating plate 16 can heat the massage head 10 to achieve a hot compress massage effect.
[0084] The neck massager 20 of the embodiment of the present invention has better swing characteristics through the eccentrically designed elastic connector 22, thereby solving the problem of poor swing characteristics caused by the large deformation resistance generated by the elastic bracket during its swing.
[0085] Furthermore, when the neck massager 20 provides an electrical stimulation massage, the eccentric placement of the elastic connector 22 relative to the center of the base 11 allows the massage head 10 to have better swing characteristics, allowing it to better conform to the neck. When the neck massager 20 provides a vibration massage, the eccentric placement of the elastic connector 22 relative to the center of the base 11 allows the massage head 10 to vibrate more strongly, increasing the intensity of the massage.
[0086] The above is a detailed introduction to a neck massager disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the neck massager of the present invention and its core concept. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the concept of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
