[0074] Example 1

[0075] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a flow chart of a massage control method provided in Example 1 of the present invention. This method is applicable to scenarios where a user performs a massage using a massage device such as a massage chair. This method is applied to a massage device such as a massage chair, which is equipped with a sensor. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0076] S101 : When a massage event is detected in the massage chair, obtain the blood flow velocity collected by the sensor.

[0077] It's important to note that this step officially initiates the massage process. Once the massage chair detects a massage event (e.g., a user initiating a massage program or reaching a preset automatic massage time), the system immediately activates and uses pre-installed sensors on the massage chair to collect the user's current blood flow velocity. This critical human characteristic data provides a solid foundation for subsequent analysis of the user's current physical condition and for controlling the massage chair's massage.

[0078] S102: Determine the degree of muscle tension according to the blood flow velocity.

[0079] It should be noted that the user's muscle tension is scientifically assessed based on the blood flow velocity collected in step S101. This process integrates the essence of biomedicine and data analysis to ensure an accurate interpretation of the user's physical condition.

[0080] On the one hand, in an implementation of this embodiment, step S102 can be further refined to include the following steps:

[0081] Obtaining a preset association table, wherein the association table includes a correspondence between blood flow velocity and muscle tension;

[0082] determining a corresponding muscle tension degree from the association table according to the blood flow velocity;

[0083] It should be noted that in this regard, the implementation path is a direct mapping based on a preset association table. First, the system accesses and loads a predefined association table that details the correspondence between blood flow velocity and muscle tension. This correspondence is based on statistical analysis of extensive experimental data or medical research results.

[0084] The system then searches a correlation table for the corresponding muscle tension level based on the real-time blood flow velocity data. This process, similar to a table lookup, provides rapid results and is suitable for scenarios where real-time performance is critical but accuracy is less critical.

[0085] On the other hand, in an implementation of this embodiment, step S102 may be further refined to include the following steps:

[0086] Obtain a pre-built and trained neural network model; the neural network model is built and trained based on the following Reynolds number calculation formula and the corresponding relationship between the Reynolds number and muscle tension:

[0087] Re=VDσ / η; where Re is the Reynolds number, V is the average blood velocity in the blood vessel, D is the blood vessel diameter, σ is the blood density, and η is the blood viscosity;

[0088] The blood flow velocity is input into the neural network model to determine the corresponding muscle tension.

[0089] It should be noted that the implementation path in this regard is based on complex inferences of a neural network model. In order to more accurately reflect the complex relationship between blood flow velocity and muscle tension, the system adopts a more advanced method - building and training a neural network model.

[0090] The neural network model incorporates the formula for calculating the Reynolds number and the relationship between the Reynolds number and muscle tension. The Reynolds number is a dimensionless number that describes fluid flow characteristics. Under conditions of muscle tension, blood vessels may narrow due to muscle compression, affecting blood flow velocity and the Reynolds number.

[0091] When building a neural network model, the Reynolds number can be used as one of the input features, while also considering the effect of muscle tension on blood vessel diameter. By collecting a large amount of hemodynamic data and corresponding muscle tension data, the neural network can be trained to learn and predict the changes in the Reynolds number under different muscle tension levels.

[0092] Furthermore, neural networks can be trained using supervised learning, where the network weights are adjusted to minimize prediction error by comparing the Reynolds number predicted by the model with the actual measured value. This approach can be applied to predictive models of hemodynamics, helping doctors better understand blood flow changes under different physiological conditions.

[0093] In practical applications, deep learning techniques, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or recurrent neural networks (RNNs), can be combined to address complex hemodynamic problems. For example, deep learning models can be used to analyze the relationship between blood flow velocity, blood vessel diameter, and muscle tension, and predict hemodynamic behavior under specific conditions.

[0094] Once model training is complete, the system uses the real-time blood flow velocity data as input to the neural network model. The model then performs complex calculations and inferences based on the learned patterns, ultimately outputting the corresponding level of muscle tension. While computationally complex, this approach captures more subtle changes and potential correlations, making it more advantageous in scenarios requiring high precision.

[0095] S103: Determine massage parameters according to the degree of muscle tension.

[0096] It should be noted that, based on the accurate understanding of the user's muscle tension, the system further intelligently customizes massage parameters, aiming to provide the most appropriate and efficient massage plan based on the user's real-time physical condition. This step fully demonstrates the personalized and precise characteristics of the present invention.

[0097] In a further optimized implementation of this embodiment, the setting of massage parameters is planned in more detail and scientifically to ensure that the massage process can effectively relieve muscle tension while taking into account the comfort and safety of the user.

[0098] Specifically, the massage parameters defined in this embodiment mainly include three aspects: massage duration, massage frequency, and massage intensity corresponding to each time node. These parameters are set closely around the user's real-time muscle tension and dynamically adjusted to achieve the best massage effect.

[0099] Massage duration: Massage duration is a fundamental parameter in the massage process, determining how long the massage lasts. In practice, massage duration can be set based on the user's personal needs, physical condition, and the massager's preset programming. However, in this embodiment, while massage duration exists as an independent parameter, its setting is also affected to some extent by muscle tension. For example, under high tension, the massage duration may be appropriately extended to enhance the effect.

[0100] Massage frequency: Massage frequency refers to the number of times a massage action is repeated per unit time. Similar to massage duration, setting massage frequency also requires consideration of various factors, including user preference, the characteristics of the massage area, and the performance of the massager. In this embodiment, the massage frequency is fine-tuned based on muscle tension to ensure that the massage action penetrates the muscle layers for a deep relaxation effect without causing discomfort due to excessive frequency.

[0101] Massage intensity: Massage intensity is one of the most critical and challenging parameters in the massage process. It directly determines the effectiveness of the massage and the user's experience. In this embodiment, massage intensity is designed to be a variable closely related to muscle tension. Specifically, different levels of muscle tension correspond to different massage intensities, following a basic rule: the higher the muscle tension, the lower the corresponding massage intensity. This is because under high tension, muscles may be more sensitive and fragile, and excessive massage intensity may cause pain or discomfort. As the massage process progresses, the muscles gradually relax, at which point the massage intensity can be appropriately increased to further enhance the effect.

[0102] Specifically, the massage process follows a principle of moving from the whole to the part, and from light to heavy. That is, the massage intensity gradually increases from light to strong, with the intensity at the previous time point being less than or equal to the intensity at the next time point. This incremental massage intensity design helps users gradually adapt to the massage process, avoiding discomfort caused by sudden stimulation, while also promoting optimal massage results as muscles gradually relax.

[0103] S104: Control the massage chair according to the massage parameters.

[0104] It should be noted that the present invention determines the degree of muscle tension based on the blood flow rate collected by the sensor, and then determines the massage parameters used to control the massage chair, so that the massage chair can finally massage the user with the most appropriate and effective massage plan according to the user's real-time physical condition, ensuring that each massage can accurately meet the user's physical needs, achieve the best relaxation effect and health promotion purpose, and enhance the user's massage experience.

[0105] It should be noted that in this step, based on the massage parameters determined in step S103, the system precisely controls the massage chair so that it operates according to the preset personalized plan. This dynamic adjustment process ensures that the massage chair can respond to the user's body changes in real time, maximizing the massage effect, thereby meeting the user's relaxation and health needs to the greatest extent possible and enhancing the overall massage experience.

[0106] In a further extension of this embodiment, a user voice interaction function is introduced to enhance the intelligent and personalized experience of the massage chair. This function allows users to adjust massage parameters in real time through voice commands during the massage to meet their changing needs or preferences.

[0107] Specifically, after step S104, the method further includes:

[0108] Monitor whether the user has sent a voice message;

[0109] If not, continue to perform the step of monitoring whether the user has sent a voice message until the set monitoring time is reached; if so, recognize the voice message and obtain a voice recognition result;

[0110] Determining whether there are preset keywords in the speech recognition result; the preset keywords are preset keywords related to adjusting the massage parameters;

[0111] If not, return to the step of monitoring whether the user has issued a voice message until the set monitoring time is reached; if so, adjust the massage parameters according to the preset keywords to control the massage chair to massage the user according to the adjusted massage parameters.

[0112] It should be noted that, that is, after step S104 is completed, the system immediately enters the monitoring state and continuously monitors whether the user has issued a voice message. This step is the basis of the voice interaction function, which ensures that the system can capture the user's voice command in real time.

[0113] To prevent the system from being in a meaningless monitoring state for extended periods of time, this embodiment sets a monitoring time threshold. If the system does not detect a voice message from the user before reaching this threshold, it will continue monitoring. If no voice command is received after the set monitoring time, the system can choose to end monitoring or take other pre-set measures (such as sounding a prompt to alert the user). If a voice message is detected within the monitoring time, the next step is processed.

[0114] The system processes the received voice information and generates a speech recognition result. It then performs a keyword match on this result to check whether it contains preset keywords related to adjusting massage parameters. These preset keywords are set by the system in advance to identify user intent and trigger the corresponding parameter adjustment operation.

[0115] If the voice recognition results contain pre-set keywords, the system will adjust the massage parameters based on the specific content of these keywords. For example, the user may use voice commands to increase massage intensity, change massage mode, or adjust massage position. The system updates the massage parameters in real time based on these commands and controls the massage chair to perform massage according to the new parameter settings.

[0116] It's understandable that the system doesn't stop monitoring immediately after adjusting massage parameters. Instead, it continues to listen for the user's voice information, allowing for continuous parameter adjustments based on further user instructions. This cyclical monitoring and real-time adjustment mechanism ensures a highly flexible and personalized massage experience.

[0117] By introducing user voice interaction, the massage control method of this embodiment not only improves user convenience but also enhances the intelligence level of the massage chair. While enjoying a massage, users can adjust massage parameters in real time through simple voice commands, resulting in a more comfortable and personalized massage experience.

[0118] In another extended implementation of this embodiment, the user-friendliness and health management capabilities of the massage control method are further enhanced. After the massage event is completed, the system records key parameters of the massage process and / or provides personalized health guidance to help users better understand their health status and take appropriate health care measures.

[0119] Specifically, after step S104, the method further includes:

[0120] Determine whether the massage event has ended;

[0121] If not, continue to execute the step of determining whether the massage event has ended; if so, update the massage parameters corresponding to the massage event to the stored massage history data, and / or provide corresponding health guidance to the user.

[0122] It should be noted that this is usually achieved by monitoring the working status of the massage chair, a timer, or a user manually stopping the operation. If the massage event has not ended, the system will continue to execute the judgment step to keep monitoring the massage process.

[0123] Once a massage event is detected to have ended, the system updates the stored massage history data based on the massage parameters corresponding to the event (such as massage duration, massage frequency, massage intensity, etc.). This data records the details of each massage session for the user, providing a valuable source of information for subsequent health analysis and guidance.

[0124] In addition to updating historical data, the system can also provide users with personalized health guidance based on their massage history, current physical condition (such as blood flow rate and muscle tension monitored by sensors), and pre-set health management rules. These guidance may include special precautions for specific body parts or health issues.

[0125] By adding steps to determine whether the massage event has ended, updating massage history data and / or providing health guidance, the massage control method of this embodiment not only improves the integrity of the user experience, but also strengthens the integration with health management, providing users with more comprehensive and personalized health services.

[0126] Although the terms "sensor" and "massage parameter" are frequently used in this application, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are used only to more conveniently describe and explain the essence of the present invention; interpreting them as any additional limitations is contrary to the spirit of the present invention.

[0127] The present invention provides a massage control method, which determines the degree of muscle tension based on the blood flow rate collected by a sensor, and then determines the massage parameters used to control the massage chair, so that the massage chair can finally massage the user with the most appropriate and effective massage plan that suits the user's real-time physical condition, ensuring that each massage can accurately meet the user's physical needs, achieve the best relaxation effect and health promotion purpose, and enhance the user's massage experience.

In this embodiment, the shiatsu massage component is cleverly integrated into the massager, capable of automatically identifying and locating key acupuncture points on the leg and applying the appropriate massage force and frequency to achieve the optimal massage effect.

[0158] The massage control device is the intelligent hub of the massage chair, responsible for receiving user commands, controlling the operation of the massager, and recording and analyzing massage data. The massage control device of this embodiment utilizes the advanced massage control technology described in Example 2 above. It can monitor the user's muscle tension in real time, adjust massage parameters (such as massage duration, frequency, and intensity), and provide personalized health guidance. Furthermore, the massage control device maintains a communication connection with the massager to ensure accurate transmission of commands and precise execution of massage movements.

[0159] Working principle:

[0160] When a user sits in a massage chair, the massage control unit first powers up and initializes the system. The user can then send massage commands to the massage control unit via the control panel, remote control, or voice commands. Upon receiving these commands, the massage control unit adjusts massage parameters based on the preset massage program and the user's real-time physical condition (such as muscle tension), controlling the massager to perform the appropriate massage movements. During the massage, the massage control unit continuously monitors user feedback and massage effectiveness, dynamically adjusting the system as needed. After the massage, the massage control unit records the parameters and results of the session in its stored massage history data and may provide personalized health guidance to the user.

[0161] The massage chair provided in Example 3 of the present invention integrates advanced massage control technology and acupressure massage components, providing users with a precise and comfortable massage experience. Through the collaborative operation of an intelligent massage control device and an efficient massager, the chair automatically identifies the user's physical condition and adjusts massage parameters to achieve the optimal massage effect. Furthermore, the chair features health guidance, helping users better understand their health and take appropriate healthcare measures.
