Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a swingable massage arm includes a massage arm 1, a massage head 2 connected to one end of the massage arm 1, and a drive mechanism. A first connection point 3 is provided between the massage head 2 and the massage arm 1, and the massage head 2 is rotatably engaged with the massage arm 1 through the first connection point 3.

[0025] Furthermore, the drive mechanism is connected to the other end of the massage arm 1 and drives the massage arm 1 to move or rotate. In existing massage mechanisms, the massage arm 1 achieves its movement and rotation by connecting to a kneading shaft and cooperating with a tapping shaft or a traveling shaft.

[0026] Furthermore, a drive motor 4 is provided between the massage head 2 and the massage arm 1. A second connection point 5 is provided between the drive motor 4 and the massage head 2. The drive motor 4 can act on the second connection point 5 to drive the massage head 2 to swing left and right around the first connection point 3 towards the end of the massage arm 1 or in the opposite direction to the massage arm 1. For details, please refer to the attached instruction manual. Figure 3 , 4 5 and the instruction manual are attached. Figure 9 , 10 As shown in Figure 11.

[0027] Through the design of the above structure, the present invention utilizes the push motor 4 to push and pull the second connection point 5, so that the massage head 2 can swing left and right around the first connection point 3. This allows the direction of action of the massage head 2 to be adjusted flexibly, rather than simply perpendicular to the skin. The swinging effect of the massage head 2 can simulate the direction of a massage master's fingers. Combined with massage techniques, it can better realize the diversity of massage techniques.

[0028] Furthermore, this application provides two specific embodiments to achieve the technical effects of the above-described structure.

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] In embodiment 1, a fixing post 11 is provided on the massage arm 1;

[0031] It also includes a connecting seat 6, which has a first connecting part 61 that is hinged to the fixed post 11. The first connecting part 61 forms the first connection point 3. It also includes a second connecting part 62 that is hinged to the push motor 4. The second connecting part 62 forms the second connection point 5. The massage head 2 is connected to the connecting seat 6. In operation, the massage head 2 is driven to move by the connecting seat 6 as an intermediate component.

[0032] Furthermore, the connecting seat 6 is provided with a connecting shaft 63, which is fixedly connected to the first connecting part 61, and the massage head 2 is hinged to the connecting shaft 63.

[0033] More specifically, the first connecting part 61 includes a first connecting segment 611 and a second connecting segment 612. The first connecting segment 611 is hinged to the fixed post 11, and the second connecting segment 612 is coupled to the connecting seat 6. (See attached specification) Figure 1 It can be clearly seen that the first connecting part 61 enables the reversing function, allowing the massage head 2 to swing along the massage arm 1, while the motor 4 serves as the power source for propulsion.

[0034] Furthermore, the connecting shaft 63 is intersecting with the first connecting part 61, specifically with the second connecting segment 612, so that the massage head 2 is approximately parallel to the massage arm 1.

[0035] In addition, the second connecting part 62 is a long strip structure, and the second connecting part 62 is arranged parallel to the first connecting part 61, specifically, it is arranged parallel to the first connecting segment 611.

[0036] More specifically, the fixing post 11 is perpendicular to the massage arm 1, the connecting shaft 63 is parallel to the fixing post 11, and the second connecting part 62 is perpendicular to the connecting shaft 63. Furthermore, in the fixing of the first connecting part 62 and the fixing post 11, a flat surface 111 is provided on the fixing post 11, and the first connecting part 611 is fixed by fasteners 64 to this flat surface 111. Of course, this fixing is only a limiting fixation and must not affect the rotation function of the connecting seat 6 relative to the fixing post 11.

[0037] Furthermore, the ratio of the radius of rotation of the massage head 2 around the first connecting part 61 to the length of the massage arm 1 is less than 0.3. This is to ensure that the oscillation of the massage head 2 relative to the massage arm 1 is not too large in the actual movement trajectory, thereby achieving the effect of reversing the direction of the massage head 2. If the ratio of the radius of rotation of the massage head 2 around the first connecting part 61 to the length of the massage arm 1 is too large, the massage head 2 will require a larger turning radius when reversing, and this turning radius will affect the structural design of the entire massage mechanism. Therefore, a smaller turning radius for the massage head 2 is preferable.

[0038] Furthermore, a third connecting part 621 is provided on the second connecting part 62, the third connecting part 621 including a corresponding fixing block 6211, and the fixing block 6211 is provided with a connecting hole 6212.

[0039] The drive motor 4 includes a push rod 41 and a housing 42. The push rod 41 is disposed between corresponding fixing blocks 6211 and is hinged to the fixing blocks 6211 through a connecting hole 6212.

[0040] The massage arm 1 is provided with a fourth connecting part 12. The housing 42 is hinged to the fourth connecting part 12 so that the drive motor 4 can rotate relative to the massage arm 1 and the connecting seat 6, thereby enabling the massage head 2 to perform a swinging motion.

[0041] During use of the massage head 2 in Embodiment 1, the massage head 2 can rotate around the connecting shaft 63. Simultaneously, the left and right yaw of the massage head 2 can be controlled by adjusting the extension and retraction of the push rod 41 of the drive motor 4. When the push rod 41 extends, refer to the attached instruction manual. Figure 3 As shown, the second connection point 5 is pushed outward, and the massage head 2 swings to the left around the first connection point 3; when the push rod 41 is shortened, refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 5 As shown, at this time, the second connection point 5 is pulled inward, and the massage head 2 swings to the right around the first connection point 3. Of course, this embodiment is described with the left massage arm as the reference; if the massage arm is the right massage arm, the swinging action is reversed and mirrored.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] The massage arm 1 is provided with a connecting post 13; it also includes a bearing 7, through which the massage head 2 is connected to the connecting post 13. The bearing 7 is a rotatable bearing. Simultaneously, a sliding groove 21 is provided at one end of the massage head 2 near the massage arm 1. The sliding groove 21 is annular and has a limiting block 22. The drive motor 4 includes an actuating rod 43, which has a mating block 44 that mates with the limiting block 22. The drive motor 4 is fixed to the massage arm 1. The actuating rod 43 mates with the sliding groove 21. When the massage head 2 rotates around the connecting post 13, the sliding groove 21 moves relative to the actuating rod 43.

[0044] In this embodiment 2, the massage head 2 can rotate around the connecting column 13. When the massage head 2 rotates, the action rod 43 that abuts against the massage head 2 will change its position relative to the slide groove 21. Of course, the relative moving object here is the massage head 2, that is, the slide groove 21 is rotating there. This structure ensures that the rotation of the massage head 2 does not interfere with the operation.

[0045] In addition, the massage head 2 can also rotate left and right. That is, when the motor 4 drives the actuator 43 to extend or retract, the actuator 43 can drive the massage head 2 to rotate left and right. Please refer to the instruction manual. Figure 10 , 11 As shown, when the actuating rod 43 extends, it abuts against the bottom end of the slide groove 21, that is, it acts on the second connection point 5 to make the massage head 2 rotate around the first connection point 3; when the actuating rod 43 shortens, the cooperating block 44 acts on the limiting block 22 on the slide groove 21, thereby driving the second connection point 5 to move inward, at which time the massage head 2 rotates around the first connection point 3.

[0046] More specifically, the cooperation between bearing 7 and connecting column 13 forms the first connection point 3, and the cooperation between actuating rod 43 and slide groove 21 forms the second connection point 5. The ratio of the radius of rotation of massage head 2 around the first connection point 3 to the length of massage arm 1 is less than 0.3. The purpose is to ensure that the swing of massage head 2 relative to massage arm 1 is not too large in the actual movement trajectory, thereby achieving the effect of reversing the direction of massage head 2. If the ratio of the radius of rotation of massage head 2 around the first connection point 3 to the length of massage arm 1 is too large, the massage head 2 will require a large turning radius when reversing, and this turning radius will affect the structural design of the entire massage mechanism. Therefore, it is better to have a smaller turning radius for massage head 2.

[0047] Through the specific structures of the two embodiments described above, this application enables the massage head 2 to operate in a direction that is not simply perpendicular to the skin, but can be flexibly adjusted. By using the swaying effect of the massage head, the direction of a massage master's fingers can be simulated, and in conjunction with massage techniques, the diversity of massage techniques can be better realized.
