[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all of them. Usually, the components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0023] Accordingly, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present application. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various features in the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other, and the combined embodiments are still within the protection scope of the present application.

[0024] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters denote like items in the following drawings, and thus, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.

[0025] In the description of the present application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "connected" and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and may be the internal connection of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.

[0026] On one hand of the embodiments of the present application, a method for controlling a neck massager is provided. During the process of a user wearing or removing the neck massager, the posture of the neck massager itself will change due to the influence of the user's wearing or removing actions, and thus it will have corresponding motion postures. Therefore, based on the corresponding relationships between the user's wearing actions and the motion postures of the neck massager, and between the user's removing actions and the motion postures of the neck massager, the user's wearing actions and removing actions can be determined through the motion postures of the neck massager. As Figure 1 shown, the method includes:

[0027] S100: Obtain the motion posture of the neck massager.

[0028] When obtaining the motion posture of the neck massager, sensors can be added to the neck massager to collect information on the motion posture of the neck massager affected by the user's wearing and removing actions, and then the processor signal-connected to the sensors obtains and analyzes the information collected by the sensors to obtain the motion posture of the neck massager. It should be understood that the signal connection refers to a wired connection or a wireless connection.

[0029] S200: Identify the user's wearing action or removing action according to the motion posture of the neck massager.

[0030] When the motion posture of the neck massager is obtained through S100, the motion posture of the obtained neck massager can be analyzed to determine whether the user's current action is a wearing action or a removing action.

[0031] During the process of a user wearing a neck massager, when the neck massager changes from a non-worn state to a worn state, the motion posture of the neck massager can be detected to identify the user's wearing action; during the process of the user removing the neck massager, when the neck massager changes from a worn state to being removed by the user, the motion posture of the neck massager can be detected to identify the user's removing action.

[0032] S300: Control the working state of the neck massager according to the user's wearing action or removing action.

[0033] After identifying the user's wearing action or removing action through S100, the working state of the neck massager is correspondingly adjusted. For example, after identifying the user's wearing action, the working state of the neck massager is adjusted from the stopped state to the running state; after identifying the user's removing action, the working state of the neck massager is adjusted from the running state to the stopped state. Thus, during the process of the user using the neck massager, the wearing or removing needs of the user can be determined in an intelligent manner through the wearing action or removing action, and then the neck massager is correspondingly adjusted to the running or stopped state to meet the user's usage requirements, without the need for manual operation to turn on and off, which can effectively simplify the cumbersome operation and improve the user experience, especially facilitating the use of the elderly. In addition, when removing the neck massager in the running state, the running state of the neck massager can be automatically switched to the stopped state, effectively improving safety.

[0034] It should be understood that the massage method of the neck massager in this application can be a physical massage type or an electrostimulation (EMS) type, and this application does not make specific limitations on it. The working state of the neck massager includes a running state and a stopped state. Among them, the running state means that the neck massager is in the state of massaging and running, and the stopped state means that the neck massager is in the state of massaging and stopping.

[0035] Optionally, when the aforementioned sensor is an acceleration sensor, the motion posture of the neck massager can be characterized by the acceleration information of the neck massager. Thus, the motion posture of the neck massager can be determined more accurately.

[0036] As Figure 2 shown, the neck massager includes a posterior neck 110 and a first lateral neck 120 and a second lateral neck 130 respectively extending from both ends of the posterior neck 110. When characterizing the motion posture of the neck massager through the acceleration information of the neck massager, acceleration sensors 150 can be correspondingly arranged on the first lateral neck 120 and / or the second lateral neck 130.

[0037] Based on the user's wearing and removing habits and the structural characteristics of the neck massager, when the user needs to perform a wearing action, the neck massager is usually picked up upward, and forces are applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 of the neck massager to move them away from each other to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening. Then, the neck massager is moved in an inclined downward manner so that the back neck 110 of the neck massager fits the user's neck. Next, the forces applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are removed, and the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are reset and then fit to the user's neck. Thus, the wearing of the neck massager is completed.

[0038] When the user needs to perform a removing action, usually, forces are first applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 of the neck massager to move them away from each other to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening. Then, the neck massager is moved in an inclined upward manner so that the back neck 110 of the neck massager moves away from the user's neck. Next, the forces applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are removed, the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are reset, and the neck massager is put down downward. Thus, the wearing of the neck massager is completed.

[0039] Optionally, when the acceleration information of the neck massager includes the acceleration directions of the first side neck and the second side neck, identifying the user's wearing action or removing action according to the motion posture of the neck massager includes:

[0040] If the neck massager is in a shutdown state and the acceleration directions of the first side neck and the second side neck include a state of approaching each other and a state of moving away from each other, it is identified as the user's wearing action;

[0041] If the neck massager is in an operating state, and the acceleration directions of the first side neck and the second side neck include a state of moving away from each other and a state of being vertically in the same direction, it is identified as the user's removing action.

[0042] When identifying the above wearing action and removing action, the acceleration information can be determined as the acceleration direction, that is, the motion posture of the neck massager is characterized by the acceleration direction. According to the type of the acceleration sensor 150, it can be correspondingly set on the first side neck 120 or the second side neck 130, or can be respectively set on the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130. For the convenience of description, the following will be discussed separately:

[0043] In one implementation, acceleration sensors 150 are respectively arranged on the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130, and the acceleration sensor 150 can be a single-axis acceleration sensor 150.

[0044] In this embodiment, based on the aforementioned wearing actions of the user, when the wearing or removing actions of the user are recognized according to the motion posture of the neck massager through S200:

[0045] If the neck massager is in a shutdown state, and the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 include a state of facing each other and a state of moving away from each other, it indicates that during this process, the user applies forces to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 to move them away from each other (the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are in a state of moving away from each other) to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening, and then the user removes the forces applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130, and the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 return to their original positions (the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are in a state of facing each other). Therefore, it is recognized as the user's wearing action, indicating that the user has a need for massage.

[0046] Specifically, when the neck massager is not worn and is in a shutdown state, the acceleration sensor 150 monitors the acceleration in the horizontal direction. If it is recognized that there are accelerations in different directions in the left-right direction of the neck massager for the two acceleration sensors, it indicates that the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 include a state of facing each other and a state of moving away from each other, and then the user's "wearing" action is recognized.

[0047] If the neck massager is in an operating state and the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 include a state of moving away from each other and a state of being in the same vertical direction, it indicates that during this process, the user applies forces to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 of the neck massager to move them away from each other (the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are in a state of moving away from each other) to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening, and then the neck massager is moved in an inclined upward motion manner (after the orthogonal decomposition of the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 and the orthogonal decomposition of the acceleration direction of the second side neck 130, they are in a state of being in the same vertical direction) to move the rear neck 110 of the neck massager away from the user's neck, and then it is recognized as the user's removing action, indicating that the user has a need to stop the massage.

[0048] Specifically, when the neck massager is in an operating state, if the acceleration sensor determines that there is first an upward acceleration in the vertical direction, and then there is an acceleration in the direction outside the acceleration sensor in the left-right direction of the neck massager, the user's "removing" action is recognized.

[0049] In another embodiment, an acceleration sensor 150 is provided on the first side neck 120 or the second side neck 130, and the acceleration sensor 150 may be a triaxial acceleration sensor 150.

[0050] When the motion posture of the neck massager includes the acceleration direction of the first side neck, identifying the user's wearing action or removing action according to the motion posture of the neck massager includes:

[0051] If the neck massager is in a stopped state and the acceleration direction of the first side neck includes a state of vertically upward, a state of vertically downward, a state of facing away from the second side neck, and a state of facing the second side neck, it is identified as the user's wearing action;

[0052] If the neck massager is in an operating state and the acceleration direction of the first side neck includes a state of vertically upward, a state of vertically downward, a state of facing away from the second side neck, and a state of facing the second side neck, it is identified as the user's removing action.

[0053] Taking the setting on the first side neck 120 as an example:

[0054] In this embodiment, based on the foregoing user's wearing action, when identifying the user's wearing action or removing action according to the motion posture of the neck massager through S200:

[0055] If the neck massager is in a stopped state, and the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 includes a state of vertically upward, a state of vertically downward, a state of facing away from the second side neck 130, and a state of facing the second side neck 130, it indicates that during this process, the user picks up the neck massager upward (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is in a state of vertically upward), and applies force to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 of the neck massager to move them away from each other (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is in a state of facing away from the second side neck 130) to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening, and then makes the neck massager move in an inclined downward manner (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 has a state of vertically downward after orthogonal decomposition) so that the back neck 110 of the neck massager fits the user's neck, and then removes the force applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130, and the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are reset (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is in a state of facing the second side neck 130) and then fit to the user's neck. Thus, it is identified as the user's wearing action, indicating that the user has a need for massage.

[0056] Specifically, in the horizontal acceleration direction, the positive direction of the first side neck 120 is defined as the direction of the installation position relative to the second side neck 130, and the positive direction of the vertical acceleration is defined as upward. When the neck massager is not worn and in the shutdown state, the acceleration sensor 150 monitors the acceleration in the horizontal direction. If it is recognized that after the acceleration sensor first generates an upward acceleration in the vertical direction, there is an acceleration in the direction outside the acceleration sensor in the left and right directions of the neck massager, and after generating a downward acceleration in the vertical direction, there is an acceleration in the direction inside the acceleration sensor in the left and right directions of the neck massager, then it is recognized that the user has made a "wearing" action.

[0057] If the neck massager is in the operating state and the acceleration directions of the first side neck 120 include the states of vertically upward, vertically downward, away from the second side neck 130, and toward the second side neck 130, it indicates that during this process, the user applies forces to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 of the neck massager to move them away from each other (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is the state of being away from the second side neck 130) to obtain a larger wearing and removing opening, and then makes the neck massager move in an inclined upward manner (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 has a vertically upward state after orthogonal decomposition) to move the rear neck 110 of the neck massager away from the user's neck. Then, the forces applied to the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are removed, and the first side neck 120 and the second side neck 130 are reset (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is the state of being toward the second side neck 130), and the neck massager is lowered downward (the acceleration direction of the first side neck 120 is the state of vertically downward). Thus, it is recognized as the user's removing action, indicating that the user has a need to stop the massage.

[0058] Optionally, before controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's wearing or removing action in S300, the temperature information of the user can also be obtained periodically. Thus, by introducing the temperature information of the user to cooperate with the acceleration sensor 150 to identify the user's wearing and removing actions, it helps to improve the accuracy of identification.

[0059] When obtaining the temperature information of the user periodically, a temperature sensor 160 can be added to the neck massager. Thus, the surrounding temperature is collected through the temperature sensor 160, so that when the neck massager is worn on the user's neck, the temperature information of the user is obtained periodically. The temperature sensor 160 and the processor can be connected by a signal. To improve the accuracy of the temperature collected by the temperature sensor 160, the temperature sensor 160 can also be set inside the neck massager. For example Figure 2 , the temperature sensor 160 is set on the massage head 140.

[0060] Optionally, controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's wearing or removing action includes: controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's temperature information and the user's wearing or removing action.

[0061] After introducing the temperature information, when controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's wearing or removing action through S300, introducing the user's temperature information to cooperate with the acceleration sensor 150 to identify the user's wearing and removing actions helps to improve the accuracy of identification and avoid misjudgment of the removing or wearing actions.

[0062] In a possible embodiment, when the neck massager is not worn and in a shutdown state, the acceleration sensor 150 monitors the acceleration in the horizontal direction. If it is recognized that there are accelerations in different directions in the left - right direction of the neck massager for the two acceleration sensors, indicating that the acceleration directions of the first - side neck 120 and the second - side neck 130 include opposite and away states, then it is recognized that the user has made a "wearing" action; judging whether it is within a preset interval (for example, 30° - 40°) according to the acquired temperature information. If it is within the preset interval, the host starts the massage mode, further confirming that the user has made a wearing action and has worn the neck massager on the user's neck, and controls the neck massager to be in an operating state and start the massage work.

[0063] In a possible embodiment, when the neck massager is in an operating state, judge the temperature difference between the temperature detected in the current sampling period and the temperature detected in the previous sampling period. If the temperature difference in this sampling period is lower than that in the previous sampling period, and the acceleration sensor determines that there is an acceleration in the outward direction of the acceleration sensor in the left - right direction of the neck massager after an upward acceleration is first generated in the vertical direction, then it is recognized that the user has made a "removing" action.

[0064] In a possible embodiment, an acceleration sensor (e.g., a triaxial acceleration sensor) can be installed in the neck massager. In the horizontal acceleration direction, the positive direction of the first side of the neck 120 is defined as the direction of the installation position relative to the second side of the neck 130, and the positive direction of the vertical acceleration is defined as upward. When the neck massager is not worn and in the shutdown state, the acceleration sensor 150 monitors the acceleration in the horizontal direction. If it is recognized that after the acceleration sensor first generates an upward acceleration in the vertical direction, there is an acceleration in the outer direction of the acceleration sensor in the left and right directions of the neck massager, and after generating a downward acceleration in the vertical direction, there is an acceleration in the inner direction of the acceleration sensor in the left and right directions of the neck massager, then it is recognized that the user has made a "wearing" action; according to the obtained temperature information, it is judged whether it is within a preset interval (e.g., 30°-40°). If it is within the preset interval, the host starts the massage mode, further confirms that the user has made a wearing action and has worn the neck massager on the user's neck, and controls the neck massager to be in the running state and start the massage work.

[0065] Optionally, controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's temperature information and the user's wearing or removing action includes:

[0066] If the user makes a wearing action and the user's temperature information in the current cycle is within the preset interval, then control the neck massager to be in the running state;

[0067] If the user makes a removing action and / or the user's temperature information in the current cycle is lower than the user's temperature information in the previous cycle, then control the neck massager to be in the shutdown state.

[0068] When controlling the working state of the neck massager according to the user's temperature information and the user's wearing or removing action, it can first be judged whether the user makes a wearing action or a removing action, and then the user's temperature information is analyzed and processed according to the wearing or removing action. Specifically:

[0069] If it is recognized that the user makes a wearing action and the obtained user temperature information in the current cycle is within the preset interval, and the preset interval can be set according to the human body temperature, such as 30 to 40 °C. Thus, it indicates that the user has made a wearing action and has worn the neck massager on the user's neck. Therefore, the processor controls the neck massager to be in the running state.

[0070] If it is recognized that the user makes a removing action, thus, it indicates that the user has made a removing action. Furthermore, the processor can control the neck massager to be in the shutdown state.

[0071] Optionally, if the user makes a removing action and / or the user's temperature information in the current cycle is lower than the user's temperature information in the previous cycle, then controlling the neck massager to be in the shutdown state includes:

[0072] If the user's picking action and / or the temperature information of the user in the current cycle is lower than the preset value, the neck massager is controlled to be in a shutdown state, and the preset value is the difference between the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle and the allowable error.

[0073] If the temperature information of the user in the current cycle obtained is lower than the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle, it indicates that the user has picked the neck massager from the user's neck, and the processor controls the neck massager to be in a shutdown state.

[0074] If it is recognized that the user's action is picking and the temperature information of the user in the current cycle obtained is lower than the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle, it indicates that the user has performed a picking action and has picked the neck massager from the user's neck. Thus, the processor controls the neck massager to be in a shutdown state.

[0075] When the processor controls the neck massager to shut down according to the temperature information of the user, the allowable error can be introduced to further improve the accuracy of judgment. For example, when judging that the temperature information of the user in the current cycle is lower than the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle, the temperature information of the user in the current cycle can be compared with the preset value. When the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle is lower than the preset value, the processor controls the neck massager to be in a shutdown state. Wherein, the preset value is the difference between the temperature information of the user in the previous cycle and the allowable error.

[0076] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present application provides a neck massager, as Figure 2 shown, the neck massager can be controlled by any of the above-mentioned neck massager control methods. Thus, during the process of the user using the neck massager, the user's wearing or picking needs can be determined in an intelligent manner through the wearing action or picking action, and then the neck massager is correspondingly adjusted to be in the running or shutdown state to meet the user's usage requirements. There is no need for manual operation to turn on and off, which can effectively simplify the cumbersome operation and improve the user experience, especially facilitating the use of the elderly. In addition, when the neck massager is picked during the running state, the running state of the neck massager can be automatically switched to the shutdown state, effectively improving safety.

[0077] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
