Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of massage technology, and more specifically, to a massager. Background Art

[0002] Nowadays, people's lives and work are often inseparable from computers and mobile phones. Long periods of time spent in front of computers or mobile phones can easily lead to soreness in the cervical and lumbar vertebrae. Massagers can alleviate these soreness. Massagers use a vibrating motor to transmit vibrations to the user's skin, achieving a massage effect. However, during massage, the vibrating motor can vibrate along with the main body of the massager, making it difficult to wear. Summary of the Invention

[0003] An embodiment of the present application provides a massager.

[0004] The massager of the embodiment of the present application includes a main unit, a drive assembly, a buffer and an expansion component. The main unit is arc-shaped and includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other. The drive assembly is arranged in the main unit and protrudes relative to the first surface of the main unit, and the drive assembly is capable of generating vibrations along a first direction. The drive assembly is connected to the main unit through the buffer. The buffer is used to absorb the vibration of the drive assembly in a second direction. The first direction is the radial direction of the main unit, and the second direction is a direction other than the first direction. The expansion component is installed on one side of the main unit and connected to the buffer and / or the drive assembly, and the expansion component is used to transmit the vibration to provide a massage effect.

[0005] The massager of the embodiment of the present application is configured to generate vibrations along the radial direction of the main body by providing a drive assembly, and to provide a buffer to absorb the vibrations of the drive assembly in directions other than the radial direction of the main body, so that the vibration direction of the drive assembly can be ordered. On the one hand, it can be understood that an ordered vibration direction can better simulate a tapping massage technique than a disordered vibration direction. The user can feel a clear tapping sensation through the ordered vibration of the massager, and the massager can have a better massage effect. On the other hand, the vibration of the drive assembly in directions other than the radial direction of the main body will drive the main body to vibrate synchronously in directions other than the radial direction of the main body. After a long period of vibration, the main body is prone to displacement, which may cause misalignment of various components on the main body. By providing a buffer to absorb the vibrations of the drive assembly in directions other than the radial direction of the main body, the massager can greatly reduce the adverse effects of the vibration of the drive assembly on the main body, thereby improving the product quality and stability of the massager.

[0006] In some embodiments, the buffer member includes a connecting portion and a first pleated portion. The connecting portion extends from the inside of the main unit to the outside of the main unit, and the drive assembly is mounted on the connecting portion. The first pleated portion is connected to the outer side of the connecting portion and the main unit, and when the drive assembly vibrates, the first pleated portion allows the connecting portion to expand and contract relative to the first surface of the main unit.

[0007] The drive assembly is mounted on the connecting portion, and the first folded portion is connected to the outer side of the connecting portion and the main unit. This allows the drive assembly to be mounted on the main unit via the first folded portion and the connecting portion. The first folded portion and the connecting portion can cooperate to cushion the vibration of the drive assembly in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit. Therefore, the first folded portion and the connecting portion can achieve a dual cushioning and shock absorption effect, which helps the massager's buffer member have a higher cushioning capacity. In addition, the drive assembly is mounted on the main unit via the first folded portion and the connecting portion, rather than being directly fixedly connected to the main unit, so that the drive assembly has a certain amount of displacement space along the radial direction of the main unit. This helps the drive assembly to move and adjust along the radial direction of the main unit to adapt to the shape of the human neck when the user wears the massager.

[0008] In some embodiments, the buffer member includes the connecting portion, the connecting portion includes a silicone sleeve, the silicone sleeve extends from inside the host to outside the host, and the driving assembly is installed in the silicone sleeve.

[0009] The connecting portion includes a silicone sleeve. The silicone sleeve is made of a soft material and has a good deformation effect, so it can have a better buffering and shock-absorbing effect on the vibration of the drive component in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit.

[0010] In some embodiments, the connecting portion defines an installation space. A first through-hole is provided at a first end of the connecting portion extending outside the main unit, the first through-hole communicating with the installation space. The drive assembly includes a vibration motor and a vibration transmitter. The vibration motor is mounted within the installation space to generate vibration. The vibration transmitter is disposed within the installation space and exposed through the first through-hole, with the vibration motor connected to the vibration transmitter.

[0011] The driving assembly is provided with a vibration transmission part, which can reduce the vibration loss when the vibration of the vibration motor is transmitted to the expansion component, and improve the vibration sensation reaching the user's skin.

[0012] In some embodiments, one end of the vibration transmitting member is flush with an end surface of the first end of the connecting portion or protrudes from the end surface.

[0013] One end of the vibration transmission member is flush with or protrudes from the end surface of the first end of the connecting portion, so that the vibration transmission member can transmit the vibration of the vibration motor to other components.

[0014] In some embodiments, a second through-hole is provided at a second end of the connecting portion located within the main unit. The second through-hole is connected to the installation space. The vibration motor extends into the installation space through the second through-hole and is interference-fitted with the connecting portion.

[0015] The vibration motor extends into the installation space from the second through-hole and has an interference fit with the connecting part, which can make the connection between the vibration motor and the connecting part tighter, so that the connecting part can tightly wrap the vibration motor, reduce the noise generated when the vibration motor vibrates, and improve the connection reliability between the vibration motor and the connecting part.

[0016] In some embodiments, along a direction from the first end of the connecting portion to the second end of the connecting portion, before the vibration motor is installed in the installation space, an opening size of the installation space at the second end of the connecting portion gradually decreases.

[0017] Before the vibration motor is installed in the installation space, the opening size of the installation space located at the second end of the connecting portion gradually decreases along the direction from the first end of the connecting portion to the second end of the connecting portion, which is conducive to making it difficult for the vibration motor to fall off from the connecting portion after being installed in the installation space, so that the vibration motor and the connecting portion can have a better interference fit effect, and further improve the connection reliability of the vibration motor and the connecting portion.

[0018] In some embodiments, along a direction from the first end of the connecting portion to the second end of the connecting portion, a cross-section at the first end of the connecting portion gradually increases.

[0019] Along the direction from the first end of the connecting part to the second end of the connecting part, the cross-section at the first end of the connecting part gradually decreases, which can reduce the contact area between the connecting part and the expansion part, so that when the driving component vibrates, the local pressure in the contact area between the connecting part and the expansion part can be increased, which can enhance the vibration sense transmitted from the expansion part to the user's skin.

[0020] In some embodiments, the buffer member includes the connecting portion, the connecting portion extending from inside the host to outside the host, and the driving assembly includes a vibration motor and a mounting portion. The vibration motor is mounted in the mounting portion, and the mounting portion is connected to the connecting portion.

[0021] The driving assembly includes a vibration motor and a mounting portion, which is conducive to more firmly connecting the vibration motor to other components through the mounting portion.

[0022] In some embodiments, the vibration motor includes a linear motor or a flat eccentric vibrator motor, wherein the flat eccentric vibrator motor is vertically arranged relative to the buffer member.

[0023] Certain embodiments of massagers utilize linear motors or flat eccentric vibrator motors to effectively simulate a percussive massage effect, effectively transmitting vibrations from the main unit to the extension unit. Specifically, a vertically oriented flat eccentric vibrator motor can create a similar hammering effect to a linear motor, thereby better simulating a percussive massage effect.

[0024] In some embodiments, the connecting portion is provided with an installation space. The installation portion includes a cover, a flange, and a limiting ring. The flange extends from the edge of the first surface of the cover and surrounds to form a cavity. The limiting ring extends from the first surface of the cover and is accommodated in the cavity. The vibration motor is installed in the limiting ring and passes through the cover to protrude relative to the second surface of the cover. There is a gap between the limiting ring and the flange. The connecting portion extends into the gap and abuts against the cover, and the limiting ring extends into the installation space.

[0025] The mounting portion includes a cover, a flange and a limiting ring. The connecting portion extends into the gap between the limiting ring and the flange and abuts against the cover. The limiting ring extends into the mounting space, so that the mounting portion and the connecting portion can have a tight nesting fit, so that the vibration motor can be firmly connected to the connecting portion through the mounting portion.

[0026] In some embodiments, the host includes a first shell and a second shell, the first shell is located on the first side of the host, the second shell is located on the second side of the host, the first shell and the second shell are combined to form a receiving cavity, and the drive assembly is arranged on the first shell through the buffer member.

[0027] The main unit includes a first shell and a second shell. The first shell and the second shell are combined to form a receiving cavity, which can accommodate and protect the components of the main unit. The first shell and the second shell have the functions of supporting, connecting and protecting the main unit and the massager.

[0028] In some embodiments, the first shell includes a plastic shell or a silicone shell; and / or the second shell includes a plastic shell or a silicone shell.

[0029] The silicone shell can act as a buffer to reduce the vibration of the host; the plastic shell has a higher hardness, which can prevent foreign objects from hitting the host and causing damage to the host.

[0030] In some embodiments, the buffer component and the first shell are an integral structure or a separate structure.

[0031] When the connecting portion and the first shell are integrally formed, the first shell and the connecting portion can be manufactured together, resulting in a simple manufacturing process and low manufacturing cost. When the connecting portion and the first shell are separate structures, if one of the first shell or the connecting portion is damaged, only the damaged one needs to be replaced, resulting in low maintenance cost.

[0032] In some embodiments, the massager further includes an expansion component, which is mounted on one side of the main unit and connected to the buffer and / or the drive assembly.

[0033] The expansion component is mounted on one side of the main body and connected to the buffer component and / or the driving component, so that the driving component can drive the expansion component to vibrate to massage the user.

[0034] In some embodiments, the expansion component at least partially covers the buffer component.

[0035] The expansion component at least partially covers the buffer part, which enables the driving component to transmit vibration to the expansion component through the connecting part. Since the expansion component can be in direct contact with human skin, the vibration can be transmitted to the user through the expansion component, so that the massager can provide a vibration massage effect.

[0036] In certain embodiments, the massager includes a connector mounted on the main unit; the extension component includes a body, the body including a coupling portion and two extension portions. The coupling portion is connected to the connector. The two extension portions are disposed on either side of the coupling portion and spaced apart from the main unit, and the extension portions are connected to the buffer and / or the drive assembly.

[0037] The two extension parts of the expansion component are arranged on both sides of the connecting part and are spaced apart from the main body. On the one hand, the two extension parts can be deformed with the connection between the extension part and the connecting part as the fulcrum to adapt to the shape of the user's massage area. On the other hand, the extension part is not easy to collide with the main body when deformed.

[0038] In certain embodiments, the combining portion is detachably connected to the connecting member; or the combining portion is fixedly connected to the connecting member.

[0039] When the joint part and the connecting piece are detachably connected, it is convenient to remove and replace the expansion component; when the joint part and the connecting piece are fixedly connected, the expansion component and the main unit are more stable, making it difficult for the expansion component to be separated from the main unit.

[0040] In some embodiments, the massager further includes a second folded portion, the connecting member is connected to the coupling portion via the second folded portion, and the second folded portion can allow the expansion component to expand and contract relative to the first shell.

[0041] A second pleated portion is provided on the massager, and the connecting piece is connected to the second pleated portion. The joint can expand and contract radially, and the expansion component has a stronger conformal deformation capability. When the driving component vibrates, it can play an auxiliary vibration reduction role, thereby reducing the possibility that the vibration generated by the expansion component as a whole is transmitted back to the main unit, causing the main unit to vibrate.

[0042] In some embodiments, in a projection from the expansion component toward the main unit, the projection of the expansion component completely covers a projection of the first fold portion and a projection of the second fold portion of the buffer.

[0043] The projection of the expansion component completely covers the projection of the first fold part and the projection of the second fold part of the buffer part, which can reduce the possibility of dust and other debris entering the folds and reduce the possibility of dirt and grime being trapped in the folds. At the same time, it can avoid the adverse effects of dust and other debris in the production or working environment entering the massager through the folds and affecting the massager, thereby improving the working stability of the massager.

[0044] In some embodiments, a first distance between a junction of the buffer and / or the drive assembly with the extension portion and the free end of the extension portion is smaller than a second distance between the junction and the coupling portion.

[0045] The connecting portion is arranged close to the free end of the extending portion so that the driving assembly can better drive the extending portion to deform, thereby increasing the amplitude of the extending portion and being beneficial to improving the massage effect of the massager.

[0046] In some embodiments, the buffer members include multiple components, and the drive assemblies include multiple components. Each extension corresponds to one buffer member and one drive assembly, and each extension is connected to a corresponding buffer member and / or a corresponding drive assembly; or each extension corresponds to multiple buffer members and multiple drive assemblies, and each extension is connected to multiple buffer members and / or multiple drive assemblies.

[0047] Each extension portion corresponds to at least one buffer component and / or a driving component, and each extension portion can perform vibration massage on the user, thereby increasing the massage area of ​​the extension component and improving the massage effect for the user.

[0048] In some embodiments, a relief groove is provided on a side of the extending portion facing the main unit, and the buffer member and / or the driving assembly extends into the relief groove and connects with the extending portion.

[0049] A avoidance groove is provided on the side of the extension portion facing the main unit, which can reduce the distance between the driving component and the user's skin, thereby enhancing the vibration sensation felt by the user.

[0050] In some embodiments, the expansion component further includes an electrode sheet assembly. The electrode sheet assembly is disposed on a side of the body away from the host, and the electrode sheet assembly is located on the extension portion.

[0051] An electrode assembly is provided on the side of the expansion component away from the main unit, so that the massager can also provide electrical stimulation massage to the user, thereby improving the user's massage comfort.

[0052] In certain embodiments, the electrode sheet assembly includes a metal electrode sheet, and the metal electrode sheet is mounted on the extension portion.

[0053] The metal electrode sheet installed on the extension part can directly perform electrical stimulation massage on the user's skin to enhance the massage effect.

[0054] In some embodiments, the electrode sheet assembly further includes a substrate and a gel sheet. The substrate is provided with a through-mounting groove. The gel sheet is mounted in the mounting groove and is bonded to the metal electrode sheet.

[0055] A gel sheet is attached to the metal electrode sheet. Since the gel sheet can better fit the human skin, it can effectively suppress the occurrence of electric stings during electric stimulation massage and further improve the massage effect.

[0064] The following further describes the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The same or similar reference numerals in the accompanying drawings represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions.

[0065] In addition, the embodiments of the present application described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the embodiments of the present application and should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0066] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or that the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is at a higher level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is at a lower level than the second feature.

[0067] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The massager 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes a main unit 10, a driving assembly 20, a buffer 30 and an expansion component 40. The main unit 10 is arc-shaped, and the main unit 10 includes a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 opposite to each other. The driving assembly 20 is arranged in the main unit 10 and protrudes relative to the first surface 101 of the main unit 10. The driving assembly 20 can generate vibrations along a first direction. The driving assembly 20 is connected to the main unit 10 through the buffer 30. The buffer 30 is used to absorb the vibration of the driving assembly 20 in the second direction. The first direction is the radial direction of the main unit 10, and the second direction is other directions except the first direction. The expansion component 40 is installed on the first surface 101 of the main unit 10 and is connected to the driving assembly 20 and / or the buffer 30. The expansion component 40 is used to transmit vibrations to provide a massage effect.

[0068] The massager 100 of the present embodiment of the present invention provides a drive assembly 20 that generates vibrations along the radial direction of the main unit 10, and a buffer 30 that absorbs vibrations of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10. This allows the vibration direction of the drive assembly 20 to be ordered. On the one hand, because ordered vibration directions can better simulate percussion massage techniques than disordered vibration directions, the user can experience a distinct percussion sensation through the ordered vibrations of the massager 100, thereby achieving a better massage effect. On the other hand, if the drive assembly 20 vibrates in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10 for a long time, the main unit 10 is prone to displacement, which may cause misalignment of various components of the main unit 10. By providing the buffer 30 to absorb vibrations of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10, the massager 100 can significantly reduce the vibration of the main unit 10 caused by the vibration of the drive assembly 20, thereby preventing displacement of the main unit 10 or its components, thereby improving the product quality and stability of the massager 100.

[0069] The following is further explained with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0070] See also Figure 1 The massager 100 may specifically include but is not limited to a neck massager, a chest massager, an eye massager, a waist massager, and a leg massager. The embodiment of the present application takes the massager 100 as an example for explaining the neck massager. It is understandable that the massager 100 may be other types of massagers and is not limited here. Figure 2 The massager 100 includes a main unit 10, a driving assembly 20, a buffer 30, and an expansion component 40. In some embodiments, the expansion component 40 can also be omitted. In this case, the massager 100 can directly output massage stimulation such as knocking to the outside world through the driving assembly 20.

[0071] See also Figures 1 to 3 The host 10 includes a first shell 12 and a second shell 14. The first shell 12 is located on the first surface 101 of the host 10, and the second shell 14 is located on the second surface 102 of the host 10. The first shell 12 and the second shell 14 are combined to form a receiving cavity 16, which can accommodate functional components such as wires, power modules, heat dissipation modules, and processors. The first shell 12 and the second shell 14 can provide waterproof, dustproof and other protection for the functional components installed in the receiving cavity 16. The first shell 12 is closer to the user's skin than the second shell 14, and the first shell 12 and the second shell 14 are detachably connected to facilitate the replacement and maintenance of the functional components installed in the receiving cavity 16.

[0072] The first housing 12 may be made of plastic or silicone; the second housing 14 may be made of plastic or silicone; or both the first housing 12 and the second housing 14 may be made of plastic or silicone. The silicone shell can act as a buffer to reduce vibrations of the host 10; the plastic shell's high hardness can prevent damage to the host 10 caused by impacts from foreign objects.

[0073] See also Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments, the first housing 12 may include a plastic shell or a silicone shell. When the first housing 12 includes a silicone shell, the first housing 12 can effectively reduce vibrations. When the first housing 12 includes a plastic shell, the shape of the first housing 12 is relatively stable and is less likely to deform under high pressure, while also providing some vibration reduction.

[0074] In some embodiments, the second housing 14 may include a plastic shell or a silicone shell. When the second housing 14 includes a silicone shell, the second housing 14 can effectively reduce vibrations. When the second housing 14 includes a plastic shell, the shape of the second housing 14 is less likely to change, making the shape of the host 10 relatively stable.

[0075] In one embodiment, the first shell 12 includes a silicone shell, and the second shell 14 includes a silicone shell. Both the first shell 12 and the second shell 14 can play a role in buffering and shock absorption. The host 10 is not prone to generate large vibrations when the driving component 20 vibrates, which can prevent the expansion component 40 from detaching from the user's skin due to excessive vibration of the host 10.

[0076] In another embodiment, the first shell 12 includes a plastic shell, and the second shell 14 includes a plastic shell, so that the shape of the host 10 is not easily changed, and the functional components installed in the receiving cavity 16 can be better protected.

[0077] In another embodiment, the first shell 12 includes a silicone shell, and the second shell 14 includes a plastic shell. The first shell 12 can play a role in buffering and vibration reduction, while the second shell 14 can maintain a good shape structure, making the massager 100 more solid.

[0078] In another embodiment, the first shell 12 includes a plastic shell, and the second shell 14 includes a silicone shell. The first shell 12 can better fit the user's skin, and the second shell 14 can play a role in buffering and vibration reduction.

[0079] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The drive assembly 20 includes a component that drives an object to vibrate or rotate. The drive assembly 20 can generate vibration along a first direction, that is, the drive assembly 20 can generate vibration along the radial direction of the main unit 10. Specifically, the drive assembly 20 includes a vibration motor 22. The vibration motor 22 can include, but is not limited to, a linear motor or a flat eccentric vibrator motor. Thus, the vibration motor 22 can simulate a tapping massage effect and can effectively transmit the vibration from the vibration motor 22 to the expansion component 40.

[0080] In one example, the vibration motor 22 comprises a linear motor. The vibration generated by the linear motor repetitively vibrates along the radial direction of the main unit 10, allowing the user to experience a massage effect similar to tapping when using the massager 100, making the massager 100 more similar to the effect of a real manual massage. At the same time, the linear motor can better transmit the vibration to the expansion component 40.

[0081] In another example, the vibration motor 22 includes a flat eccentric vibrator motor, which is vertically arranged relative to the buffer 30. The eccentric vibrator of the flat eccentric vibrator motor rotates around the axial direction of the flat eccentric vibrator motor. In this way, the flat eccentric vibrator motor has the ability to vibrate circumferentially, and the vertical arrangement of the flat eccentric vibrator motor can form a hammering effect similar to that of a linear motor, thereby better simulating a percussion massage effect, so that the user can experience a massage effect similar to percussion when using the massager 100 for massage, and the massager 100 is closer to the effect of a real artificial massage. At the same time, the flat eccentric vibrator motor can better transmit the vibration to the expansion component 40.

[0082] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the driving assembly 20 may further include a mounting portion 26 . The mounting portion 26 is used to mount the vibration motor 22 . The mounting portion 26 is connected to the buffer 30 , which facilitates a more stable connection between the vibration motor 22 and the buffer 30 through the mounting portion 26 .

[0083] For details, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mounting portion 26 includes a cover 261, a flange 263, and a retaining ring 265. The flange 263 extends from the edge of the first surface 2612 of the cover 261 and surrounds the cover 261 to form a cavity 2610. The retaining ring 265 extends from the first surface 2611 of the cover 261 and is received within the cavity 2610. The vibration motor 22 is mounted within the retaining space 2651 of the retaining ring 265 and extends from the cover 261 to protrude relative to the second surface 2614 of the cover 261. A gap 267 is defined between the retaining ring 265 and the flange 263.

[0084] Furthermore, the cover 261 may have a through hole 2611 formed therein. The through hole 2611 may penetrate the first surface 2612 and the second surface 2614 of the cover 261 and communicate with the limiting space 2651 of the limiting ring 265 to accommodate the vibration motor 22. Preferably, the through hole 2611 may be formed at the center of the first surface 2612 of the cover 261 and match the shape of the vibration motor 22.

[0085] See also Figure 4 In another embodiment, the drive assembly 20 may further include a vibration transmission member 24. The vibration motor 22 is connected to the vibration transmission member 24 to reduce the vibration loss when the vibration of the vibration motor 22 is transmitted to the expansion member 40, thereby improving the vibration sensation reaching the user's skin. The vibration transmission member 24 can be made of soft materials, hard materials, etc.

[0086] See also Figures 2 to 4The buffer member 30 is disposed on the main unit 10. Specifically, the buffer member 30 can be disposed on the first housing 12 and extend from the interior of the receiving cavity 16 toward the user's neck to the outside of the main unit 10. Thus, the drive assembly 20 is connected to the main unit 10 via the buffer member 30. The buffer member 30 is used to absorb vibrations of the drive assembly 20 in the second direction, that is, the buffer member 30 is used to absorb vibrations of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10. A plurality of buffer members 30 may be included, and correspondingly, a plurality of drive assemblies 20 may also be included.

[0087] It should be noted that the buffer 30 actually also absorbs the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in the first direction, that is, the buffer 30 actually also absorbs the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in the radial direction of the main unit 10. However, since the vibration force output by the drive assembly 20 in the first direction is greater, while the vibration force in other directions is smaller, although the buffer 30 absorbs the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in both the first and second directions, the absorption force of the drive assembly 20 in the first direction by the buffer 30 is far less than the vibration force output by the drive assembly 20 in the first direction, while the absorption force of the drive assembly 20 in the second direction by the buffer 30 is roughly the same as the vibration force output by the drive assembly 20 in the second direction. Therefore, the vibration output by the drive assembly 20 can be concentrated in the first direction, that is, the vibration output by the drive assembly 20 can be concentrated in the radial direction of the main unit 10, thereby simulating a tapping massage technique and improving the massage effect of the massager.

[0088] The buffer member 30 and the first housing 12 may be integral or separate. It will be appreciated that when the buffer member 30 and the first housing 12 are integral, the first housing 12 and the buffer member 30 can be manufactured together, simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing manufacturing costs. When the buffer member 30 and the first housing 12 are separate, if either the first housing 12 or the buffer member 30 is damaged, only the damaged one needs to be replaced, reducing repair costs.

[0089] The buffer 30 and the first shell 12 can both be made of elastic material, and the buffer 30 and the first shell 12 are an integral or split structure. Therefore, the buffer 30 and the first shell 12 both have a buffering capacity, which can reduce the vibration transmitted to the host 10 by the drive component 20 in directions other than the radial direction, effectively avoiding the situation where the expansion component 40 is separated from the human skin due to the vibration of the host 10, so that the expansion component 40 can continue to fit the user's skin. Among them, the buffer 30 and the first shell 12 can be made of the same elastic material, or they can be made of different elastic materials. The elastic material can be rubber, silicone, soft glue, polymer synthetic materials (such as polyether ester, propylene, vinyl) and other materials.

[0090] See also Figure 3 or Figure 4 The buffer 30 may include a connecting portion 32 and a first pleated portion 34. The connecting portion 32 extends from the inside of the host 10 to the outside of the host 10, and the driving assembly 20 is installed on the connecting portion 32. The first pleated portion 34 is connected to the outer side surface 320 of the connecting portion 32 and the host 10. As a result, the driving assembly 20 can be installed on the host 10 through the first pleated portion 34 and the connecting portion 32. The first pleated portion 34 and the connecting portion 32 can cooperate to buffer the vibration of the driving assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the host 10. Therefore, the first pleated portion 34 and the connecting portion 32 can achieve double buffering and vibration reduction effects, so that the buffer 30 of the massager 100 has a stronger buffering capacity. Furthermore, the drive assembly 20 is mounted on the main unit 10 via the first pleated portion 34 and the connecting portion 32, rather than being directly fixed thereto. This allows the drive assembly 20 to move radially along the main unit 10. This facilitates radial movement of the drive assembly 20 along the main unit 10 to accommodate the shape of the user's neck when the massager 100 is worn. Furthermore, the first pleated portion 34 reduces vibration noise generated by the drive assembly 20, resulting in a quieter experience for the user.

[0091] The massager 100 may include a plurality of buffer members 30. Specifically, the number of buffer members 30 may be three, four, five, six, or a greater number, without limitation. Correspondingly, the massager 100 may include a plurality of drive assemblies 20. Specifically, the number of drive assemblies 20 may be three, four, five, six, or a greater number, without limitation. It is optimal if the number of drive assemblies 20 matches the number of buffer members 30, with a one-to-one correspondence between the two.

[0092] Please continue reading Figure 3 and Figure 4 The connecting portion 32 may include a silicone sleeve 32. The silicone sleeve 32 extends from the inside of the main unit 10 to the outside of the main unit 10, and the drive assembly 20 is installed in the silicone sleeve 32. The silicone sleeve 32 is made of a relatively soft material and has a good deformation effect, which can better cushion and reduce vibrations of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10.

[0093] The silicone sleeve 32 wraps around the vibration motor 22 and is mounted on the outer surface of the buffer 30. In this way, the silicone sleeve 32 can reduce the noise generated by the vibration of the vibration motor 22 and the noise generated by the vibration of the buffer 30, so that when the user uses the massager 100, the noise of the massager 100 is low and not easily disturbing to the user.

[0094] See also Figure 4In one embodiment, the connecting portion 32 is provided with an installation space 321. A first end 323 of the connecting portion 32 extending outside the host 10 is provided with a first through-hole 322, and the first through-hole 322 is connected to the installation space 321. A second end 325 of the connecting portion 32 located inside the host 10 may be provided with a second through-hole 324. The second through-hole 324 is connected to the installation space 321. The vibration motor 22 extends into the installation space 321 through the second through-hole 324 and is interference fit with the connecting portion 32, thereby making the connection between the vibration motor 22 and the connecting portion 32 tighter, reducing the noise generated when the vibration motor 22 vibrates, and improving the connection reliability between the vibration motor 22 and the connecting portion 32. The vibration motor 22 and the vibration transmission member 24 are installed in the buffer member 30, and the vibration transmission member 24 can be exposed from the first through-hole 322. It can be understood that at least a portion of the vibration transmission member 24 is installed in the first through-hole 322 so that the vibration transmission member 24 can transmit the vibration generated by the vibration motor 22 to the expansion member 40.

[0095] In another embodiment, as in Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the first through-hole can also be omitted, the first end 323 of the connecting portion 32 is closed, and the second end 325 of the connecting portion 32 is provided with a second through-hole 324. In this case, the connecting portion 32 is also provided with an installation space 321, and the second opening 324 is connected to the installation space 321. The vibration motor 22 extends from the second through-hole 324 into the installation space 321 and is interference fit with the connecting portion 32, thereby making the connection between the vibration motor 22 and the connecting portion 32 tighter, reducing the noise generated when the vibration motor 22 vibrates, and improving the connection reliability between the vibration motor 22 and the connecting portion 32. Figure 3 As shown, the drive assembly 20 may not be provided with a vibration transmitting member. Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the driving assembly 20 may also include a vibration transmitting member ( Figure 3 Not shown), at this time, the vibration transmission member can be set in the installation space 321 without being exposed, for example, the vibration transmission member is set between the limiting ring 22 and the closed end, so as to facilitate dust prevention of the massager 100.

[0096] Specifically, see Figures 2 to 4 The first pleated portion 34 can be annular and can be a pleated portion on the first housing 12. When the drive assembly 20 vibrates, the pleats can expand and contract in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10 to provide a buffering effect. In one embodiment, the first pleated portion 34 is connected to the outer side surface 320 of the connecting portion 32 in a circumferential manner. Thus, when the drive assembly 20 within the connecting portion 32 vibrates, the first pleated portion 34 can reduce the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main unit 10, while not affecting the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in the radial direction of the main unit 10. The first pleated portion 34 can have one, two, three, four, five, or more layers.

[0097] It should be noted that the first pleated portion 34 may not be in a pleated shape, but may be in a Figure 3 The thinner ring shape shown. Figure 3 The thickness of the first folded portion 34 in the radial direction of the main unit 10 is smaller than the thickness of the first shell 12 in the radial direction of the main unit 10 . Thus, the first folded portion 34 can have better elasticity to reduce the vibration of the drive assembly 20 .

[0098] Please also refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the connecting portion 32 is assembled with the mounting portion 26 of the driving assembly 20, the connecting portion 32 extends into the gap 267 between the limiting ring 265 and the flange 263 and abuts against the cover 261. The limiting ring 265 on which the vibration motor 22 is installed extends into the installation space 321 of the connecting portion 32, so that the mounting portion 26 and the connecting portion 32 can have a tight nesting fit, thereby making the vibration motor 22 firmly connected to the connecting portion 32 through the mounting portion 26.

[0099] See also Figure 4 When the connecting portion 32 is assembled with the drive assembly 20, the transmission member 24 extends into the installation space 321 of the connecting portion 32 and abuts against the first end 323 of the connecting portion 32. The vibration motor 22 extends into the installation space 321 of the connecting portion 32 and forms an interference fit with the connecting portion 32, connecting the vibration motor 22 to the vibration transmission member 24. At this time, one end of the vibration transmission member 24 is flush with or protrudes from the end surface 326 of the first end 323 of the connecting portion 32.

[0100] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, along the direction from the first end 323 of the connecting portion 32 to the second end 325 of the connecting portion 32, before the vibration motor 22 is installed in the installation space 321, the opening size of the installation space 321 at the second end 325 of the connecting portion 32 can be gradually reduced. In this way, the vibration motor 22 can be interference fit with the connecting portion 32, and the vibration motor 22 is difficult to fall off from the connecting portion 32, thereby further improving the connection reliability between the vibration motor 22 and the connecting portion 32.

[0101] The opening size of the installation space 321 at the second end 325 of the connecting portion 32 may gradually decrease linearly, which is not limited here.

[0102] Please continue reading Figure 4In some embodiments, the cross-section of the first end 323 of the connection portion 32 gradually increases along the direction from the first end 323 of the connection portion 32 to the second end 325 of the connection portion 32, that is, the cross-section of the first end 323 of the connection portion 32 gradually decreases along the direction from the second end 325 of the connection portion 32 to the first end 323 of the connection portion 32. Thus, the contact area between the connection portion 32 and the expansion component 40 can be reduced, so that when the driving component 20 vibrates, the local pressure in the contact area between the connection portion 32 and the expansion component 40 is increased, which can enhance the vibration sense transmitted from the expansion component 40 to the user's skin, making the user more comfortable.

[0103] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The massager 100 may further include an expansion component 40 , and the expansion component 40 includes a connecting portion 42 and two extending portions 44 .

[0104] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 The expansion component 40 is installed on the side of the host 10 close to the user's skin and is connected to at least one of the buffer 30 and the drive assembly 20. For example, the expansion component 40 is connected to a part of the buffer 30 that extends out of the host 10, so that the drive assembly 20 installed in the buffer 30 can transmit vibration to the expansion component 40 or the drive assembly 20 can directly drive the expansion component 40 to vibrate, so that the expansion component 40 can massage the human skin. It should be noted that the expansion component 40 is connected to the buffer 30 and / or the drive assembly 20 means that the expansion component 40 is directly fixedly connected, indirectly fixedly connected, or simply abuts against the buffer 30 and / or the drive assembly 20 without having a connection relationship. At the same time, since the drive assembly 20 is installed in the host 10, the thickness of the expansion component 40 is relatively thin, so that the expansion component 40 as a whole can be relatively soft and have good random deformation ability, and the expansion component 40 can achieve a good skin-friendly effect.

[0105] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 5 The expansion component 40 includes a coupling portion 42 and two extension portions 44. A connector 18 may be provided on the main unit 10. The coupling portion 42 is connected to the connector 18. The two extension portions 44 are provided on both sides of the coupling portion 42 and are spaced apart from the main unit 10. The extension portions 44 are connected to at least one of the buffer 30 and the drive assembly 20. In this way, on the one hand, the two extension portions 44 can be deformed with the junction of the extension portions 44 and the coupling portion 42 as a fulcrum to adapt to the shape of the user's massage area. On the other hand, the extension portions 44 are less likely to collide with the main unit 10 when deformed.

[0106] Specifically, the connector 18 is mounted on the first housing 12 , and the coupling portion 42 and the connector 18 can be connected together by at least one method such as welding, snap connection, thread connection, etc. The coupling portion 42 is connected to the connector 18 so that the expansion component 40 can be connected to the first housing 12 .

[0107] In some examples, the coupling portion 42 and the connector 18 can be detachably connected by at least one of a snap-fit ​​connection and a threaded connection. Thus, if the expansion component 40 ages or becomes damaged, the expansion component 40 can be replaced. Furthermore, since the drive assembly 20 is mounted within the main unit 10, if the expansion component 40 ages or becomes damaged, only the expansion component 40 needs to be replaced, rather than the drive assembly 20. This reduces the number of discarded components and lowers the cost of using the massager 100.

[0108] In other examples, the coupling portion 42 is fixedly and non-detachably connected to the connector 18. For example, the coupling portion 42 and the connector 18 are fixedly connected by at least one method such as welding or bonding, so that the expansion component 40 is not easily separated from the host 10, thereby improving the stability of the expansion component 40.

[0109] See also Figure 1 and Figure 5 Two extensions 44 are connected to either side of the coupling portion 42, with a gap between each extension 44 and the first housing 12. When the vibration of the drive assembly 20 is transmitted to the extensions 44 and causes them to vibrate, the extensions 44 are less likely to collide with the first housing 12. The extensions 44 have a greater range of deformation, allowing them to better adapt to the shape of the skin. Furthermore, when the extensions 44 vibrate, they are less likely to collide with the first housing 12, which can also reduce noise. The extensions 44 can be made of an elastic material such as silicone, soft glue, or rubber.

[0110] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 When the drive assembly 20 includes a vibration transmission member 24 and the vibration transmission member 24 is made of a hard material, the vibration transmission member 24 can better transmit the vibration of the vibration motor 22 to the expansion member 40, thereby reducing the vibration loss transmitted from the vibration motor 22 to the expansion member 40. Furthermore, one end of the vibration transmission member 24 is flush with or protrudes from the end surface 326 of the first end 323 of the connecting portion 32, and the vibration transmission member 24 can directly connect with the expansion member 40, thereby better transmitting the vibration of the vibration motor 22 to the expansion member 40, thereby further reducing the vibration loss transmitted from the vibration motor 22 to the expansion member 40.

[0111] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4In one embodiment, the connecting member 18 can be installed in the middle position of the first shell 12, and the extension parts 44 installed on both sides of the joint 42 are symmetrically distributed relative to the joint 42, so that the massage points of the massager 100 are evenly and symmetrically distributed, and the massage effect is more comfortable.

[0112] The expansion component 40 at least partially covers the buffer 30. Specifically, the expansion component 40 can completely cover the buffer 30, or it can cover a portion of the buffer 30, so that the drive assembly 20 in the buffer 30 can transmit power or vibration to the expansion component 40. Since the expansion component 40 can directly contact the human skin, the vibration can be transmitted to the user through the expansion component 40, so that the massager 100 can provide a vibration massage effect. The expansion component 40 can at least partially cover the buffer 30 in the thickness direction, the expansion component 40 can at least partially cover the buffer 30 in the length direction, or the expansion component 40 can at least partially cover the buffer 30 in both the length and thickness directions.

[0113] See also Figure 4 The first shell 12 may be provided with a second pleated portion 121, and the connector 18 may be connected to the joint portion 42 via the second pleated portion 121. The connector 18 is connected to the second pleated portion 121, and the second pleated portion 121 can buffer the vibration of the expansion component 40, allowing the expansion component 40 to expand and contract along the radial direction of the main unit 10 at the position of the joint portion 42. When the drive assembly 20 vibrates, the second pleated portion 121 can assist in vibration reduction, reducing the possibility that the vibration generated by the expansion component 40 as a whole will be transmitted back to the main unit 10 and cause the main unit 10 to vibrate.

[0114] Specifically, the second pleated portion 121 is disposed on the first housing 12 at a location connected to the connector 18. The second pleated portion 121 can be pleated, such as a stepped annular ring, so that when subjected to pressure, the second pleated portion 121 can expand and contract in the radial direction of the main unit 10. This allows the expansion component 40 to compress the second pleated portion 121 during vibration, preventing the first housing 12 from vibrating with the expansion component 40. Furthermore, the expansion component 40 can have better conformal deformation capabilities. The second pleated portion 121 can have one, two, three, four, five, or more layers.

[0115] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, in the projection from the expansion component 40 to the host 10, the projection of the expansion component 40 completely covers the projection of the first folded portion 34 and the projection of the second folded portion 121 on the first shell 12. In this way, the expansion component 40 can protect the first folded portion 34 and the second folded portion 121 on the first shell 12, reducing the entry of dust and other garbage into the first folded portion 34 and the second folded portion 121, reducing the possibility of dirt and grime in the first folded portion 34 and the second folded portion 121, and allowing the first folded portion 34 and the second folded portion 121 to remain clean and tidy.

[0116] Furthermore, in the projection from the expansion component 40 to the main unit 10, the projection of the expansion component 40 can block the projection of the first pleated portion 34 and the projection of the second pleated portion 121 in both the length and width directions. That is to say, the length and width of the expansion component 40 are both greater than the length and width of the first pleated portion 34, and the length and width of the expansion component 40 are both greater than the length and width of the second pleated portion 121. It can be understood that the expansion component 40 completely blocks the first pleated portion 34 and the second pleated portion 121, and dust cannot enter the first pleated portion 34 and the second pleated portion 121 through the expansion component 40. Therefore, the expansion component 40 can provide better dustproof, waterproof and other protective effects on the first pleated portion 34 and the second pleated portion 121.

[0117] Please also refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment, each extension portion 44 may correspond to a buffer 30 and a drive assembly 20, and each extension portion 44 is connected to the corresponding buffer 30 and / or the corresponding drive assembly 20. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In another embodiment, each extension portion 44 may correspond to multiple buffers 30 and multiple drive assemblies 20, and each extension portion 44 is connected to the corresponding multiple buffers 30 and / or multiple drive assemblies 20. Each extension portion 44 corresponds to at least one buffer 30 and / or at least one drive assembly 20, which can increase the massage area of ​​the expansion component 40 and enhance the vibration feeling, thereby improving the massage effect of the massager 100.

[0118] In one embodiment, the number of cushioning members 30 can be an even number, that is, four, six, eight, or more cushioning members 30, with each extension 44 connecting to half the number of cushioning members 30. For example, when there are four cushioning members 30, each extension 44 connects to two cushioning members 30; for another example, when there are six cushioning members 30, each extension 44 connects to three cushioning members 30. As a result, the vibration massage effects of the extensions 44 on both sides of the joint 42 are similar, and both extensions 44 can achieve a massaging vibration effect, thereby increasing the massage area of ​​the massager 100.

[0119] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 , further, an even number of buffer members 30 can be symmetrically arranged about the joint 42, such as Figure 3 As shown, the main unit 10 includes two buffer members 30, and each buffer member 30 is connected to the corresponding extension portion 44, and the two buffer members 30 are symmetrically arranged relative to the joint portion 42, so that the two extension portions 44 on both sides of the joint portion 42 can provide a vibration massage effect, and the massage area is larger. At the same time, the force on both sides of the expansion component 40 can be more uniform, and the vibration amplitude of the two extension portions 44 can be kept consistent, which can achieve a symmetrical vibration massage effect.

[0120] In one embodiment, the plurality of buffer members 30 corresponding to the extension portion 44 can be evenly distributed relative to the extension portion 44 so as to Figure 3 Taking the buffer part 30 on one side of the middle joint 42 as an example, the first distance between two adjacent buffer parts 30, the second distance from the buffer part 30 close to the joint 42 to the joint 42, and the third distance from the buffer part 30 close to the free end 440 of the extension part 44 to the free end 440 are equal. Therefore, the vibration effect on the extension part 44 will be more uniform, and different parts of the user's skin can be massaged, and the massage interval on the skin will remain consistent, and the user's massage experience will be more comfortable.

[0121] See also Figure 4 In another embodiment, a first distance between the junction of the buffer 30 and the extension portion 44 and the free end 440 of the extension portion 44 is smaller than a second distance between the junction of the buffer 30 and the extension portion 44 and the coupling portion 42. Thus, the driving component 20 can better drive the extension portion 44 to vibrate. The driving component 20 can drive the extension portion 44 to achieve a larger amplitude, thereby improving the vibration massage effect of the massager 100 and making the user's massage experience more comfortable.

[0122] The free end 440 of the extension portion 44 is the end of the extension portion 44 that is not connected to the coupling portion 42. The portion of the extension portion 44 that is closer to the free end 440 can experience greater deformation. A first distance between the junction of the extension portion 44 and the cushioning element 30 and the free end 440 of the extension portion 44 is less than a second distance between the extension portion 44 and the coupling portion 42. That is, the cushioning element 30 is closer to the free end 440 of the extension portion 44 than to the coupling portion 42. This allows the drive assembly 20 within the cushioning element 30 to drive the extension portion 44 to undergo a greater deformation, thereby enhancing the vibration sensation transmitted to the user's skin.

[0123] It should be noted that the distances here are based on the element being regarded as an equivalent point. The distance between elements is the arc length between the two equivalent points, and the arc is consistent with the arc of the first surface 101 of the host 10 .

[0124] See also Figures 3 to 5 The extension portion 44 is provided with a relief groove 441 on the side facing the main body 10. The buffer member 30 extends into the relief groove 441 and contacts the extension portion 44. The provision of the relief groove 441 reduces the distance between the drive assembly 20 installed in the buffer member 30 and the user's skin, further improving the vibration feeling and providing the user with a more comfortable massage experience.

[0125] Specifically, the depth of the avoidance groove 441 can be determined based on the thickness of the extension portion 44 in the radial direction of the main unit 10 and the contact area between the extension portion 44 and the buffer member 30. The width of the avoidance groove 441 can be determined based on the width of the buffer member 30 or the contact area between the buffer member 30 and the extension portion 44. By determining the depth and width of the avoidance groove 441, the buffer member 30 can extend into the avoidance groove 441 and contact the extension portion 44, so that the buffer member 30 can transmit the vibration of the drive assembly 20 to the extension portion 44.

[0126] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 The extension component 40 may further include an electrode assembly 46. The electrode assembly 46 is disposed on a side of the extension component 40 away from the main unit 10 and is located on the extension portion 44. The electrode assembly 46 can provide an electrical stimulation massage to the user, allowing the massager 100 to combine electrical stimulation massage and vibration massage for the user to choose, giving the user a more comfortable massage experience.

[0127] In one embodiment, a placement slot 443 is formed on the side of the extension portion 44 away from the main body 10. Figure 5 As shown, the electrode sheet assembly 46 is mounted within the placement slot 443 on the extension portion 44. The electrode sheet assembly 46 can electrically stimulate and massage the user's skin under the action of an electric current. In another embodiment, the electrode sheet assembly 46 is attached to the surface of the extension portion 44 facing away from the main unit 10. It should be noted that the electrode sheet assembly 46 in this embodiment can deform along with the extension portion 44 and is not easily detached from the extension portion 44.

[0128] In a specific embodiment, one of the extension portions 44 may be provided with the electrode sheet assembly 46 , while the other extension portion 44 may not be provided with the electrode sheet assembly 46 ; or both extension portions 44 may be provided with the electrode sheet assembly 46 , which is not limited here.

[0129] Further, see Figure 6The electrode assembly 46 may include a metal electrode 461 mounted on the extension portion 44. The metal electrode 461 can electrically stimulate and massage the user's skin under the action of an electric current, causing a tingling sensation on the user's skin and enhancing the massage experience. The metal electrode 461 can be attached to the surface of the extension portion 44 away from the main unit 10, or mounted in the placement groove 443 of the extension portion 44, which is not limited in this application.

[0130] In one embodiment, a plurality of metal electrode sheets 461 are installed at intervals on one extension portion 44 , and each of the plurality of metal electrode sheets 461 can electrically stimulate and massage the user's skin, so as to electrically stimulate and massage the user's skin at different positions.

[0131] In another embodiment, one metal electrode sheet 461 corresponds to one extension portion 44 , and the area of ​​the metal electrode sheet 461 is relatively large, so that the user's skin can be electrically stimulated and massaged over a relatively large range.

[0132] Please continue reading Figure 6 The electrode sheet assembly 46 may further include a substrate 463 and a gel sheet 465. The substrate 463 is provided with a mounting groove 4631, into which the gel sheet 465 is mounted, and the gel sheet 465 is attached to the metal electrode sheet 461. By providing the gel sheet 465 and attaching it to the metal electrode sheet 461, the gel sheet 465 can also perform an electrical stimulation massage on the user's skin. The gel sheet 465 can better adhere to the user's skin, making the massage more comfortable for the user.

[0133] Specifically, the base plate 463 can be detachably or fixedly connected to the expansion component 40. A mounting groove 4631 is provided on the base plate 463. The bottom of the mounting groove 4631 passes through the base plate 463. The gel sheet 465 is installed in the mounting groove 4631. At the same time, the base plate 463 is provided with a protrusion circumferentially around the mounting groove 4631. The protrusion can limit the gel sheet 465 installed in the mounting groove 4631, making it difficult for the gel sheet 465 to fall out of the mounting groove 4631. At the same time, the gel sheet 465 is electrically connected to the metal electrode sheet 461, so that the metal electrode sheet 461 can transmit current to the gel sheet 465, and the gel sheet 465 can electrically stimulate and massage the user's skin.

[0134] Among them, the gel sheet 465 can deform along with the metal electrode sheet 461 and the extension part 44, so that the gel sheet 465 can also transmit vibration to achieve vibration massage. At the same time, it will not cause discomfort to the user's skin because the gel sheet 465 is too hard, and the gel sheet 465 can adaptively deform according to the shape of the part that needs to be massaged to fit the user's skin.

[0135] In one embodiment, a plurality of metal electrode sheets 461 are mounted on the extension portion 44 , and the gel sheet 465 is in contact with the plurality of metal electrode sheets 461 so that the gel sheet 465 can be electrically connected to the plurality of metal electrode sheets 461 , thereby better electrically stimulating and massaging the user's skin.

[0136] Among them, the metal electrode sheet 461 is fixedly connected to the extension part 44, and the substrate 463 is detachably connected to the extension part 44, that is, the gel sheet 465 is detachably connected to the metal electrode sheet 461, so that the user can choose the metal electrode sheet 461 for electric stimulation massage or the gel sheet 465 for electric stimulation massage according to actual needs.

[0137] In summary, the massager 100 of the embodiment of the application can provide an orderly vibration direction of the drive assembly 20 by providing a drive assembly 20 to generate vibration along the radial direction of the main body 10, and providing a buffer 30 to absorb vibration of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main body 10. On the one hand, the orderly vibration direction can better simulate the tapping massage technique compared to the disordered vibration direction. The user can feel a distinct tapping sensation through the orderly vibration of the massager 100, and the massager 100 can achieve a better massage effect. On the other hand, the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main body 10 can cause the main body 10 to vibrate synchronously in directions other than the radial direction of the main body 10. After long-term vibration, the main body 10 is prone to displacement, which may cause misalignment of various components on the main body 10. By providing the buffer 30 to absorb the vibration of the drive assembly 20 in directions other than the radial direction of the main body 10, the massager 100 can significantly reduce the adverse effects of the vibration of the drive assembly 20 on the main body 10, thereby improving the product quality and stability of the massager 100.
