Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of massage equipment, and in particular to an output control method, equipment, and computer storage medium for a fascia gun. Background Art

[0002] A fascia gun transmits force and vibration to the body's fascia through high-frequency vibrations (typically between 2,000 and 3,000 times per minute), thereby increasing blood flow to the tissues and relaxing muscles. Resonance can also cause relative displacement of tissues, reducing tissue adhesions, restoring muscle and fascia elasticity, and relaxing tense and stiff fascia, alleviating some discomfort. However, the impact of a fascia gun is relatively strong and is generally only suitable for use on areas with thicker muscles, such as the thighs and back. Using it on protruding bones can easily cause damage. Existing techniques employ pressure sensors within the massage head to adjust the vibration amplitude of the fascia gun based on the pressure value. However, in actual use, the pressure values ​​detected by the pressure sensor on the muscle and bone areas are not clearly different. This method of distinguishing between muscle and bone based on pressure is ineffective and prone to misjudgment, which can cause damage to the body. Summary of the Invention

[0076] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0077] A fascia gun, also known as a deep myofascial impactor, is a soft tissue rehabilitation tool that uses high-frequency vibrations to relax the body's soft tissues. Typically, after exercise, the human body experiences symptoms such as muscle tension, lactic acid accumulation, and hypoxia. Especially after excessive exercise, muscles often become very stiff and difficult to recover quickly. A layer of fascia envelops the muscles, allowing them to contract in an orderly fashion and achieve optimal function. After excessive exercise, the muscle fascia can swell or compress, causing soreness and discomfort. A fascia gun can address muscle tension and other issues through external, physical means. Its massage effect is similar to the ligament stretching, muscle pulling, and assisted manual massage exercises athletes perform after training. Proper and correct use of a fascia gun can help relieve post-exercise muscle soreness. It can also be used to treat soft tissue pain, stimulating the sensory function of soft tissue through high-frequency vibrations, effectively relieving muscle tension and achieving pain relief. A fascia gun can help alleviate the pain symptoms of patients with fasciitis, and its stable vibration frequency promotes muscle and soft tissue recovery. See [link to the original text]. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a scenario of the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 1As shown, when a fascia gun is applied to the desired massage area (i.e., the fascia area), it can promote muscle and surrounding soft tissue recovery or fatigue relief through vibration, indirectly affecting tissue repair. Fascia is a dense connective tissue that runs throughout the body, surrounding muscles, muscle groups, blood vessels, and nerves. Fascia is a dense connective tissue containing tightly arranged collagen fibers, which are oriented in the direction of tension, resulting in strong unidirectional tensile strength. The fascia targeted by the fascia gun generally refers to the muscle fascia that surrounds skeletal muscle, encasing and connecting the muscles and connecting the muscles throughout the body. Muscles are constrained by the fascia that surrounds them. Prolonged muscle contraction causes the fascia to contract accordingly. The soft outer shell formed by the compressed fascia restricts the expansion of muscle fibers, thereby maintaining the compressed muscle in its original state. When the human body frequently engages in strenuous exercise, the muscle fascia, as part of the load-bearing structure of skeletal muscle, may become damaged during exercise. However, due to the body's self-repair mechanisms, this damage is often reversible. However, damaged fascia often forms adhesions during this process. Therefore, when a fascia gun is applied to the fascia, it can help alleviate the pain symptoms of patients with fasciitis. Its stable vibration frequency promotes muscle and soft tissue recovery. During exercise, a fascia gun can be used in three phases: to assist with warm-up before exercise, to assist with activation during exercise, and to assist with recovery after exercise. Before exercise, the fascia gun can quickly stimulate the muscle groups to be trained, increasing the body's temperature and blood flow, helping to achieve a quick warm-up. Between sets of exercises, the fascia gun can reactivate tired muscles to prepare them for the next set of exercises. After exercise, the fascia gun can apply prolonged stimulation to the muscles after exercise, using the principle of trigger points, to help the body metabolize lactic acid, reduce muscle tension, and relieve pain. For example, after push-ups, applying a fascia gun to the pectoralis major and minor muscles for two minutes can help the body metabolize lactic acid, reduce muscle tension, and relieve pain. However, fascia guns are not suitable for all people or all body parts. See [link to fascia guns]. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is another scenario diagram of the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2As shown, when a fascia gun is applied to a non-ideal massage area (e.g., the clavicle), it may not help repair soft tissue, may increase fatigue, or even cause harm. Common non-ideal massage areas include, but are not limited to, bony prominences in the upper and lower limbs, around the neck, around the clavicle, under the arm, upper arm, and popliteal fossa. On the lateral side of the knee joint, the protrusion at the upper end of the calf is the fibular head, which surrounds the common peroneal nerve. Injury to the fibular head can cause foot drop, inability to dorsiflex the toes, and sensory impairment in the foot. The fascia gun should not be applied to the area around the fibular head. The protrusion in front of the knee joint is the tibial tuberosity, which should not be applied to this area. On the medial side of the elbow joint, the ulnar nerve groove is located, where the ulnar nerve is very superficial, and the fascia gun should not be applied there either. The anterolateral shoulder joint includes the greater tuberosity, where the rotator cuff attaches, and the fascia gun should not be applied there either. There are many nerves and blood vessels passing through the sides and front of the neck, as well as nerve reflex receptors, so the fascia gun cannot act here.

[0078] It is understandable that when a fascia gun is massaging various parts of the human body, the massage head will interact with the various parts of the body. If the fascia gun hits a hard object such as bone, the interaction time between the hard object and the massage head will be relatively short due to the lack of cushioning, and the pressure change rate will be relatively high. If the fascia gun hits a softer object such as muscle, the interaction time between the softer object and the massage head will be relatively long due to the better cushioning properties of the softer object, and the pressure change rate will be relatively low. Therefore, when the pressure change rate of the massage head exceeds a predetermined threshold, it can be determined that the massage head has hit a hard object, possibly a bone, and the user can be prompted to either stop or reduce the output.

[0079] In the embodiment provided herein, the controller can collect the pressure of the massage head via a pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure collected by the pressure sensor, thereby controlling the fascia gun in real time based on the pressure change rate. When the pressure change rate exceeds the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure control signal, causing the fascia gun to reduce its output intensity or stop output based on the massage head pressure control signal. Because the difference in pressure values ​​when the fascia gun acts on muscle and bone is smaller than the difference in pressure change rate, the pressure change rate is used to determine the fascia gun's action position and then control the fascia gun's output. This can more accurately prevent the fascia gun from causing damage to the human body during contact with the human body, thereby enhancing the safety and applicability of the fascia gun.

[0080] Specifically, see Figure 3 , Figure 3This is a flow chart of the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. This method is applicable to the controller of the fascia gun, which also includes a massage head and at least one pressure sensor; the pressure sensor is arranged in the massage head and connected to the controller. Figure 3 As shown, the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0081] S101: The controller collects the pressure of the massage head through the pressure sensor, and determines the pressure change rate of the massage head according to the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor.

[0082] Specifically, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. In some feasible embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown in part a of the figure, the fascia massage gun consists of a massage head 11 and a body 12, which are connected by a connecting structure. The massage head 11 and the body 12 can have matching threads, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by threads. The massage head 11 can also have a socket that matches the body 12, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by plugging. Optionally, the massage head 11 and the body 12 can also be fixedly connected by means such as welding or snap fasteners.

[0083] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown in part b in the figure, the massage head 11 of the fascia gun includes an elastic massage part 110 and a rigid connecting part 112. The massage part 110 has an opening 111 that matches the connecting part 112, and the massage part 110 is connected to the connecting part 112 through the opening 111. The opening 111 and the connecting part 112 may have mutually matching threads, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be threadedly connected through the opening 111. The opening 111 may also have a socket that matches the connecting part 112, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be plugged in and out through the opening 111. Optionally, the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 may also be fixedly connected by, for example, welding, snap fastening, etc.

[0084] It can be understood that the above connection methods between the massage head 11 and the body 12, and the connection methods between the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 are only some of the connection methods listed in this application. Other connection methods are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be described one by one here.

[0085] In the present application, the controller can be set inside the massage head 11 or inside the body 12. The massage head 11 includes at least one pressure sensor, which is connected to the controller and transmits the pressure information of the massage head to the controller. The controller can collect the pressure of the massage head through the pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor. There are many types of massage heads, and the layout and arrangement of the pressure sensors inside different types of massage heads can be different. For details, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the massage head type provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, the massage head types may include but are not limited to ball-type massage heads, flat-head massage heads and U-shaped massage heads. Figure 5 In the figure, parts a and b are ball-shaped massage heads, parts c and d are flat-head massage heads, and parts e and f are U-shaped massage heads. Parts a, c, and e are lateral cross-sectional views of the massage head along the direction of the connection, and parts b, d, and f are forward cross-sectional views of the massage head perpendicular to the direction of the connection. The densely dotted shaded area is the pressure sensor, the white area is the rigid connection, and the oblique shaded area is the elastic massage part. Figure 5 As shown in parts a and b in the figure, in a spherical massage head, a pressure sensor can be arranged individually in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be arranged evenly or unevenly in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center). Figure 5 As shown in parts c and d in the figure, in a flat-bottomed massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the connection with the connecting part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular distribution with the center of the bottom of the massage part as the center). Figure 5 As shown in parts e and f of the figure, in a U-shaped massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage portion (e.g., at the junction with the connecting portion) or on the inner surface (e.g., in the U-shaped recess); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle or inner surface of the elastic massage portion. It is understood that the above arrangements of pressure sensors within the massage head are only some of the arrangements listed in this application. Other arrangements are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be detailed here.

[0086] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun includes a pressure sensor, and the controller can determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure change value of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor per unit time.

[0087] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun includes multiple pressure sensors, and the controller can determine the pressure change rate corresponding to each pressure sensor based on the pressure of the massage head collected by each pressure sensor, and determine the maximum pressure change rate (or the average pressure change rate (the average value calculated according to the number of pressure sensors), or the weighted pressure change rate (the weighted value obtained by weighted calculation according to the different positions of the pressure sensors)) from the pressure change rates corresponding to each pressure sensor as the pressure change rate of the massage head.

[0088] Specifically, according to the impulse-momentum conversion law, the impact force F exerted on the massage head (i.e., the pressure collected by the controller via the pressure sensor) is inversely proportional to the duration of action t. Furthermore, because the pressure F is inversely proportional to the duration of action t, the difference in the rate of change of the massage head's pressure when contacting muscle and bone is more pronounced than the difference in the pressure of the massage head when contacting muscle and bone. In other words, determining the area contacted by the massage head using the rate of change of pressure is more accurate. Therefore, the controller can determine the pressure change rate by taking the derivative of the massage head's pressure with respect to time, and then use this pressure change rate to determine the area contacted by the massage head.

[0089] S102: When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller outputs a massage head pressure control signal, so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal.

[0090] In some feasible embodiments, the controller can determine a target massage head type and, from among pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to multiple massage head types, determine a pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type as the target pressure change threshold. Each massage head type corresponds to a pressure change threshold, including but not limited to spherical massage heads, flat massage heads, and U-shaped massage heads. Specifically, the pressure change threshold depends not only on the shape of the massage head but also on factors such as its material, size, and hardness.

[0091] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun further includes a massage head matcher (e.g., a component that can identify the chip via radio frequency identification), and the controller can obtain massage head information through the massage head matcher and determine the target massage head type based on the massage head information. The massage head information includes at least one of the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the model of the massage head interface.

[0092] In some feasible embodiments, the massage head may include a chip that can be recognized by a massage head matcher (for example, a chip that can perform Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)). The controller can obtain information about the massage head (for example, the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head) through the massage head matcher and the chip, determine the target massage head type of the massage head based on the information of the massage head, and determine the pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type from the pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to the multiple massage head types as the target pressure change threshold.

[0093] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a human-computer interaction interface (for example, a touchpad, or a control button), and the controller can obtain the massage head information input by the user through the human-computer interaction interface (for example, the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head, etc.), determine the target massage head type of the massage head based on the massage head information, and determine the pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type from the pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to the multiple massage head types as the target pressure change threshold.

[0094] In some feasible implementations, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller may output a massage head pressure control signal, so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal. Figure 6 , Figure 6 2 is another schematic diagram of the structure of a fascia massage gun provided in an embodiment of the present application. The fascia massage gun includes a massage head 210, a connecting portion 211, and a body 22. The massage head 210 includes a massage portion 2100 and a pressure sensor 2101. The connecting portion 211 includes a massage head connecting end 2111 and a body connecting end 2110. The body 22 includes a vibrating portion 221 (e.g., a motor) for generating output drive and a vibration transmitting portion 220 (e.g., a piston) for transmitting output of varying intensities to the massage head 210 and the connecting portion 211.

[0095] In some feasible embodiments, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure adjustment signal (i.e., a first output control signal) and use the pressure adjustment signal as the massage head pressure control signal. The massage head pressure adjustment signal is used to control the fascia gun (vibrating portion 221 and vibration transmission portion 220) to reduce the massage head's massage output intensity or to stop the fascia gun from outputting massage.

[0096] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a prompter (the prompter can be a touch screen, or a display screen, or an indicator light, or the aforementioned human-computer interaction interface, etc.). When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output pressure change reminder information through the prompter. The pressure change reminder information is used to prompt the user to control the output of the fascia gun.

[0097] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a prompter (the prompter can be a touch screen, or a display screen, or an indicator light, or the aforementioned human-computer interaction interface, etc.). When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller can determine that the current massage part of the fascia gun is a dangerous part, and output dangerous part prompt information through the prompter.

[0098] In some feasible embodiments, when the pressure of the massage head is less than a preset pressure threshold, the fascia gun may not contact the human body. At this time, in order to avoid energy waste, the controller can output a second output control signal to enable the fascia gun to reduce the massage output intensity of the massage head or control the fascia gun to stop output according to the second output control signal.

[0099] In the embodiment provided herein, the controller can collect the pressure of the massage head via a pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure collected by the pressure sensor, thereby controlling the fascia gun in real time based on the pressure change rate. When the pressure change rate exceeds the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure control signal, causing the fascia gun to reduce its output intensity or stop output based on the massage head pressure control signal. Because the difference in pressure values ​​when the fascia gun acts on muscle and bone is smaller than the difference in pressure change rate, the pressure change rate is used to determine the fascia gun's action position and then control the fascia gun's output. This can more accurately prevent the fascia gun from causing damage to the human body during contact with the human body, thereby enhancing the safety and applicability of the fascia gun.

[0100] Further, see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is another flow chart of the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. This method is applicable to the controller of the fascia gun, which also includes a massage head and at least one pressure sensor; the pressure sensor is arranged in the massage head and connected to the controller. Figure 7 As shown, the output control method of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0101] S301: The pressure of the massage head is collected by a pressure sensor, and the pressure change rate of the massage head is determined according to the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor.

[0102] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown in part a of the figure, the fascia massage gun consists of a massage head 11 and a body 12, which are connected by a connecting structure. The massage head 11 and the body 12 can have matching threads, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by threads. The massage head 11 can also have a socket that matches the body 12, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by plugging. Optionally, the massage head 11 and the body 12 can also be fixedly connected by means such as welding, snap fastening, etc.

[0103] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown in part b, the massage head 11 of the fascia gun includes an elastic massage part 110 and a rigid connecting part 112. The massage part 110 has an opening 111 that matches the connecting part 112, and the massage part 110 is connected to the connecting part 112 through the opening 111. The opening 111 and the connecting part 112 may have mutually matching threads, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be threadedly connected through the opening 111. The opening 111 may also have a socket that matches the connecting part 112, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be plugged in and out through the opening 111. Optionally, the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 may also be fixedly connected by, for example, welding, snap fastening, etc.

[0104] It can be understood that the above connection methods between the massage head 11 and the body 12, and the connection methods between the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 are only some of the connection methods listed in this application. Other connection methods are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be described one by one here.

[0105] In the present application, the controller can be set inside the massage head 11 or inside the body 12. The massage head 11 includes at least one pressure sensor, which is connected to the controller and transmits the pressure information of the massage head to the controller. The controller can collect the pressure of the massage head through the pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor. There are many types of massage heads, and the layout position and arrangement method of the pressure sensors inside different types of massage heads can be different. Figure 5 As shown, the massage head types may include but are not limited to ball-type massage heads, flat-head massage heads and U-shaped massage heads. Figure 5 In the figure, parts a and b are ball-shaped massage heads, parts c and d are flat-head massage heads, and parts e and f are U-shaped massage heads. Parts a, c, and e are lateral cross-sectional views of the massage head along the direction of the connection, and parts b, d, and f are forward cross-sectional views of the massage head perpendicular to the direction of the connection. The densely dotted shaded area is the pressure sensor, the white area is the rigid connection, and the oblique shaded area is the elastic massage part. Figure 5As shown in parts a and b in the figure, in a spherical massage head, a pressure sensor can be arranged individually in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be arranged evenly or unevenly in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center). Figure 5 As shown in parts c and d in the figure, in a flat-bottomed massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the connection with the connecting part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular distribution with the center of the bottom of the massage part as the center). Figure 5 As shown in parts e and f of the figure, in a U-shaped massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage portion (e.g., at the junction with the connecting portion) or on the inner surface (e.g., in the U-shaped recess); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle or inner surface of the elastic massage portion. It is understood that the above arrangements of pressure sensors within the massage head are only some of the arrangements listed in this application. Other arrangements are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be detailed here.

[0106] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun includes a pressure sensor, and the controller can determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure change value of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor per unit time.

[0107] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun includes multiple pressure sensors, and the controller can determine the pressure change rate corresponding to each pressure sensor based on the pressure of the massage head collected by each pressure sensor, and determine the maximum pressure change rate (or the average pressure change rate (the average value calculated according to the number of pressure sensors), or the weighted pressure change rate (the weighted value obtained by weighted calculation according to the different positions of the pressure sensors)) from the pressure change rates corresponding to each pressure sensor as the pressure change rate of the massage head.

[0108] Specifically, according to the impulse-momentum conversion law, the impact force F exerted on the massage head (i.e., the pressure collected by the controller via the pressure sensor) is inversely proportional to the duration of action t. Furthermore, because the pressure F is inversely proportional to the duration of action t, the difference in the rate of change of the massage head's pressure when contacting muscle and bone is more pronounced than the difference in the pressure of the massage head when contacting muscle and bone. In other words, determining the area contacted by the massage head using the rate of change of pressure is more accurate. Therefore, the controller can determine the pressure change rate by taking the derivative of the massage head's pressure with respect to time, and then use this pressure change rate to determine the area contacted by the massage head.

[0109] S302: Obtaining massage head information through a massage head matcher, and determining a target massage head type according to the massage head information.

[0110] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun further includes a massage head matcher (e.g., a component that can identify the chip via radio frequency identification), and the controller can obtain massage head information through the massage head matcher and determine the target massage head type based on the massage head information. The massage head information includes at least one of the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the model of the massage head interface.

[0111] In some feasible embodiments, the massage head may include a chip (e.g., an RFID chip) that can be recognized by a massage head matcher. The controller can obtain information about the massage head (e.g., the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head) through the massage head matcher and the chip, and determine the target massage head type based on the information about the massage head.

[0112] In some feasible embodiments, the controller may further include a human-computer interaction interface (e.g., a touchpad or control buttons). The controller may obtain information about the massage head input by the user through the human-computer interaction interface (e.g., the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head, etc.), and determine the target massage head type of the massage head based on the information about the massage head.

[0113] S303: Determine a pressure change threshold corresponding to a target massage head type from pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to multiple massage head types as a target pressure change threshold.

[0114] In some feasible embodiments, after determining the target massage head type, the controller may determine a pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type from among a plurality of pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to massage head types as the target pressure change threshold. Each massage head type corresponds to a pressure change threshold, and massage head types include but are not limited to spherical massage heads, flat massage heads, and U-shaped massage heads. Specifically, the pressure change threshold is related not only to the shape of the massage head but also to factors such as its material, size, and hardness.

[0115] S304: When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, a massage head pressure control signal is output, so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal.

[0116] In some feasible implementations, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller may output a massage head pressure control signal so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal. Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, the fascia gun includes a massage head 210, a connecting part 211 and a body 22; the massage head 210 includes a massage part 2100 and a pressure sensor 2101; the connecting part 211 includes a massage head connecting end 2111 and a body connecting end 2110; the body 22 includes a vibration part 221 (for example, a motor) for generating an output drive and a vibration transmission part 220 (for example, a piston) for transmitting outputs of different intensities to the massage head 210 and the connecting part 211.

[0117] In some feasible embodiments, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure adjustment signal (i.e., a first output control signal) and use the pressure adjustment signal as the massage head pressure control signal. The massage head pressure adjustment signal is used to control the fascia gun (vibrating portion 221 and vibration transmission portion 220) to reduce the massage head's massage output intensity or to stop the fascia gun from outputting massage.

[0118] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a prompter (the prompter can be a touch screen, or a display screen, or an indicator light, or the aforementioned human-computer interaction interface, etc.). When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output pressure change reminder information through the prompter. The pressure change reminder information is used to prompt the user to control the output of the fascia gun.

[0119] In the embodiment provided herein, the controller can collect the pressure of the massage head via a pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure collected by the pressure sensor, thereby controlling the fascia gun in real time based on the pressure change rate. When the pressure change rate exceeds the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure control signal, causing the fascia gun to reduce its output intensity or stop output based on the massage head pressure control signal. Because the difference in pressure values ​​when the fascia gun acts on muscle and bone is smaller than the difference in pressure change rate, the pressure change rate is used to determine the fascia gun's action position and then control the fascia gun's output. This can more accurately prevent the fascia gun from causing damage to the human body during contact with the human body, thereby enhancing the safety and applicability of the fascia gun.

[0120] Further, see Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the controller provided in the embodiment of the present application. This method is applicable to the controller of the fascia gun. Figure 8 As shown, the controller provided in the embodiment of the present application includes:

[0121] The data acquisition unit 601 is used to acquire the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor.

[0122] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown in part a of the figure, the fascia massage gun consists of a massage head 11 and a body 12, which are connected by a connecting structure. The massage head 11 and the body 12 can have matching threads, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by threads. The massage head 11 can also have a socket that matches the body 12, allowing the massage head 11 and the body 12 to be connected by plugging. Optionally, the massage head 11 and the body 12 can also be fixedly connected by means such as welding, snap fastening, etc.

[0123] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown in part b, the massage head 11 of the fascia gun includes an elastic massage part 110 and a rigid connecting part 112. The massage part 110 has an opening 111 that matches the connecting part 112, and the massage part 110 is connected to the connecting part 112 through the opening 111. The opening 111 and the connecting part 112 may have mutually matching threads, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be threadedly connected through the opening 111. The opening 111 may also have a socket that matches the connecting part 112, so that the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 can be plugged in and out through the opening 111. Optionally, the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 may also be fixedly connected by, for example, welding, snap fastening, etc.

[0124] It can be understood that the above connection methods between the massage head 11 and the body 12, and the connection methods between the massage part 110 and the connecting part 112 are only some of the connection methods listed in this application. Other connection methods are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be described one by one here.

[0125] In the present application, the data acquisition unit 601 can be set inside the massage head 11 or inside the body 12. The massage head 11 includes at least one pressure sensor, which is connected to the data acquisition unit 601 and transmits the pressure information of the massage head to the data acquisition unit 601. The data acquisition unit 601 can collect the pressure of the massage head through the pressure sensor. There are many types of massage heads, and the layout position and arrangement method of the pressure sensors inside different types of massage heads can be different. Figure 5 As shown, the massage head types may include but are not limited to ball-type massage heads, flat-head massage heads and U-shaped massage heads. Figure 5 In the figure, parts a and b are ball-shaped massage heads, parts c and d are flat-head massage heads, and parts e and f are U-shaped massage heads. Parts a, c, and e are lateral cross-sectional views of the massage head along the direction of the connection, and parts b, d, and f are forward cross-sectional views of the massage head perpendicular to the direction of the connection. The densely dotted shaded area is the pressure sensor, the white area is the rigid connection, and the oblique shaded area is the elastic massage part. Figure 5 As shown in parts a and b in the figure, in a spherical massage head, a pressure sensor can be arranged individually in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be arranged evenly or unevenly in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the center of the massage part as the center). Figure 5 As shown in parts c and d in the figure, in a flat-bottomed massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, at the connection with the connecting part) or on the inner surface (for example, at a position perpendicular to the connecting part on the inner surface); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle of the elastic massage part (for example, in a circular or spherical distribution with the connection with the connecting part as the center) or on the inner surface (for example, in a circular distribution with the center of the bottom of the massage part as the center). Figure 5As shown in parts e and f of the figure, in a U-shaped massage head, a pressure sensor can be individually arranged in the middle of the elastic massage portion (e.g., at the junction with the connecting portion) or on the inner surface (e.g., in the U-shaped recess); multiple pressure sensors can be evenly or unevenly arranged in the middle or inner surface of the elastic massage portion. It is understood that the above arrangements of pressure sensors within the massage head are only some of the arrangements listed in this application. Other arrangements are also within the scope of protection of this application and will not be detailed here.

[0126] The pressure change unit 602 is used to determine the pressure change rate of the massage head according to the pressure of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor.

[0127] In some feasible implementations, the fascia gun includes a pressure sensor, and the pressure change unit 602 can determine the pressure change rate of the massage head according to the pressure change value of the massage head collected by the pressure sensor per unit time.

[0128] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun includes multiple pressure sensors, and the pressure change unit 602 can determine the pressure change rate corresponding to each pressure sensor based on the pressure of the massage head collected by each pressure sensor, and determine the maximum pressure change rate (or the average pressure change rate (the average value calculated according to the number of pressure sensors), or the weighted pressure change rate (the weighted value obtained by weighted calculation according to the different positions of the pressure sensors)) from the pressure change rates corresponding to each pressure sensor as the pressure change rate of the massage head.

[0129] Specifically, according to the impulse-momentum conversion law, the impact force F exerted on the massage head (i.e., the pressure collected by the pressure variation unit 602 via the pressure sensor) is inversely proportional to the duration of action t. Furthermore, because the pressure F is inversely proportional to the duration of action t, the difference in the rate of change of the massage head's pressure when contacting muscle and bone is more pronounced than the difference in the pressure of the massage head when contacting muscle and bone. In other words, determining the area contacted by the massage head using the rate of change of pressure is more accurate. Therefore, the pressure variation unit 602 can determine the area contacted by the massage head using the rate of change of pressure by taking the derivative of the massage head's pressure with respect to time.

[0130] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun further includes a massage head matcher (for example, a component that can identify the chip through radio frequency identification, etc.), and the controller further includes:

[0131] The matching information acquisition unit is configured to acquire massage head information through the massage head matcher and determine a target massage head type based on the massage head information. The massage head information includes at least one of the factory configuration, shape, model, and interface model of the massage head.

[0132] In some feasible embodiments, the massage head may include a chip (e.g., an RFID chip) that can be recognized by a massage head matcher. The controller can obtain information about the massage head (e.g., the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head) through the massage head matcher and the chip, and determine the target massage head type based on the information about the massage head.

[0133] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun further includes a human-computer interaction interface, and the controller further includes:

[0134] An interactive information acquisition unit is used to obtain massage head information input by the user through a human-computer interaction interface, and determine a target massage head type of the massage head based on the massage head information, wherein the massage head information includes at least one of the massage head model, the factory configuration of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head.

[0135] Among them, the interactive information acquisition unit may include a human-computer interaction interface (for example, a touchpad, or a control button). The interactive information acquisition unit can obtain the massage head information input by the user through the human-computer interaction interface (for example, the factory configuration of the massage head, the shape of the massage head, the model of the massage head, or the interface model of the massage head, etc.), and determine the target massage head type of the massage head based on the massage head information.

[0136] In some feasible implementations, the controller further includes:

[0137] A threshold determination unit is used to determine a target massage head type of the massage head, and determine the pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type from the pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to multiple massage head types as the target pressure change threshold, wherein one massage head type corresponds to one pressure change threshold, and the massage head type includes one of a spherical massage head, a flat head massage head and a U-shaped massage head.

[0138] After determining the target massage head type, the threshold determination unit may determine a pressure change threshold corresponding to the target massage head type from among pre-stored pressure change thresholds corresponding to multiple massage head types as the target pressure change threshold. Each massage head type corresponds to a pressure change threshold, including but not limited to ball-shaped massage heads, flat-head massage heads, and U-shaped massage heads. Specifically, the pressure change threshold depends not only on the shape of the massage head but also on factors such as its material, size, and hardness.

[0139] The signal output unit 603 is used for the controller to output a massage head pressure control signal when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal.

[0140] In some feasible implementations, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the signal output unit 603 may output a massage head pressure control signal, so that the fascia gun responds according to the massage head pressure control signal. Figure 6 As shown, the fascia gun includes a massage head 210, a connecting part 211 and a body 22; the massage head 210 includes a massage part 2100 and a pressure sensor 2101; the connecting part 211 includes a massage head connecting end 2111 and a body connecting end 2110; the body 22 includes a vibration part 221 (for example, a motor) for generating an output drive and a vibration transmission part 220 (for example, a piston) for transmitting outputs of different intensities to the massage head 210 and the connecting part 211.

[0141] In some feasible embodiments, when the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the signal output unit 603 can output a massage head pressure adjustment signal (i.e., a first output control signal) and use the pressure adjustment signal as the massage head pressure control signal. The massage head pressure adjustment signal is used to control the fascia gun (vibration unit 221 and vibration transmission unit 220) to reduce the massage head's massage output intensity or to control the fascia gun to stop outputting.

[0142] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a prompter (the prompter can be a touch screen, or a display screen, or an indicator light, or the aforementioned human-computer interaction interface, etc.). When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the signal output unit 603 can output pressure change reminder information through the prompter. The pressure change reminder information is used to prompt the user to control the output of the fascia gun.

[0143] In some feasible embodiments, the fascia gun also includes a prompter (the prompter can be a touch screen, or a display screen, or an indicator light, or the aforementioned human-computer interaction interface, etc.). When the pressure change rate is greater than the target pressure change threshold, the signal output unit 603 can determine that the current massage part of the fascia gun is a dangerous part, and output dangerous part prompt information through the prompter.

[0144] In some feasible embodiments, when the pressure of the massage head is less than a preset pressure threshold, the fascia gun may not contact the human body. At this time, in order to avoid energy waste, the signal output unit 603 can output a second output control signal to enable the fascia gun to reduce the massage output intensity of the massage head or control the fascia gun to stop output according to the second output control signal.

[0145] In the embodiment provided herein, the controller can collect the pressure of the massage head via a pressure sensor and determine the pressure change rate of the massage head based on the pressure collected by the pressure sensor, thereby controlling the fascia gun in real time based on the pressure change rate. When the pressure change rate exceeds the target pressure change threshold, the controller can output a massage head pressure control signal, causing the fascia gun to reduce its output intensity or stop output based on the massage head pressure control signal. Because the difference in pressure values ​​when the fascia gun acts on muscle and bone is smaller than the difference in pressure change rate, the pressure change rate is used to determine the fascia gun's action position and then control the fascia gun's output. This can more accurately prevent the fascia gun from causing damage to the human body during contact with the human body, thereby enhancing the safety and applicability of the fascia gun.

[0146] See also Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is another structural diagram of the fascia gun provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 9 As shown, the fascia gun may include: a processing component, a memory, a power supply component, a multimedia component, an input / output interface, a sensor component, and a communication component. The above is only one embodiment of a fascia gun. Other situations in which basic components are added or deleted based on this embodiment are also within the scope of the description of this embodiment and do not exceed the scope of protection of this application.

[0147] The processing component generally controls the overall operation of the output control device of the fascia gun, such as operations associated with the display, phone calls, data communications, camera operation, and recording operation. The processing component may include one or more processors to execute instructions. In addition, the processing component may include one or more modules to facilitate interaction between the processing component and other components.

[0150] The multimedia component includes a screen that provides an output interface between the output control device of the fascia gun and the user. In some embodiments, the screen may include a liquid crystal display (LCD) and a touch panel (TP). If the screen includes a touch panel, the screen can be implemented as a touch screen to receive input signals from the user. The touch panel includes one or more touch sensors to sense touches, slides, and gestures on the touch panel. The touch sensor can not only sense the boundaries of the touch or sliding action, but also detect the duration and pressure associated with the touch or sliding operation.
