The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.

[0026] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0027] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a massage movement includes a base 1, a first massage device 2 and a driving member 3. The first massage device 2 and the driving member 3 are both arranged on the outer wall of the base 1. The first massage device 2 includes a guide structure 20, a rack 21, a slider 22, a follower gear 23 and a transmission assembly 24. The guide structure 20 and the rack 21 are both fixed to the base 1 and are both arranged along the length direction of the base 1. The slider 22 is slidably connected to the guide structure 20, and the follower gear 23 is rotatably connected to the slider 22 and meshes with the rack 21. The driving member 3 can drive the slider 22 to slide back and forth along the length direction of the guide structure 20 through the transmission assembly 24. When in use, the follower gear 23 can be coaxially connected to the massage head 7, and the driving member 3 will drive the slider 22 toward the guide structure through the transmission assembly 24. One end of the guide structure 20 slides, and the follower gear 23 moving with the slider 22 will roll and rotate under the action of the rack 21, thereby driving the massage head 7 to rotate forward. When the slider 22 slides to one end of the guide structure 20, the driving member 3 will drive the slider 22 to slide toward the other end of the guide structure 20 through the transmission assembly 24, and the follower gear 23 will also roll and reverse under the action of the rack 21, thereby driving the massage head 7 to reverse, so that the massage head 7 slides back and forth along a straight line while rotating, and the rotation direction is switched synchronously with the sliding direction, which can prevent the massage head 7 from rotating in one direction and entangled in clothes. Therefore, there is no need to install elastic cloth 6 to separate the massage head 7 from clothes, which effectively improves the massage touch, ensures the massage experience, avoids the use of consumable accessories such as elastic cloth 6, and extends the service life of the massager.

[0029] In one embodiment, the driving member 3 is a motor, and the transmission assembly 24 includes an eccentric wheel and a connecting rod. The eccentric wheel is rotatably arranged on the base 1 and is arranged in the same direction as the follower gear 23. The motor is drivingly connected to the eccentric wheel, one end of the connecting rod is hinged to the eccentric end of the eccentric wheel, and the other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the slider 22. The motor can drive the eccentric wheel to rotate, and the eccentric wheel will drive the connecting rod to swing, thereby pushing and pulling the slider 22 through the connecting rod, so that the slider 22 slides back and forth along the guide structure 20 (not shown in the drawings).

[0030] In one embodiment, the guide structure 20 is a slide groove, and the slider 22 is clamped in the slide groove and can slide along the length direction of the slide groove (not shown in the drawings).

[0031] Furthermore, the transmission assembly 24 includes a threaded rod 241, which is rotatably disposed on the base 1 and disposed in the same direction as the guide structure 20. The driving member 3 can drive the threaded rod 241 to rotate, and drive the slider 22 to slide back and forth along the length direction of the guide structure 20 through the threaded rod 241.

[0032] In one embodiment, the driving member 3 is a motor, and the threaded rod 241 is coaxially fixed on the output shaft of the motor. The motor and the guide structure 20 are arranged in the same direction. The threaded rod 241 is threadedly connected to the slider 22. The sliding direction of the slider 22 is adjusted by changing the rotation direction of the motor to realize the reciprocating sliding of the slider 22. The forward and reverse rotation of the motor is controlled by the corresponding control chip (not shown in the drawings). The control chip and the motor can be purchased through market channels and are not elaborated in this embodiment.

[0033] Furthermore, the transmission assembly 24 further includes a driven worm gear 242 , the threaded rod 241 is a transmission worm, and the driven worm gear 242 is coaxially fixed to one end of the driven gear 23 and meshes with the transmission worm.

[0034] Furthermore, the first massage device 2 further comprises a reduction gear set 25 , the driving member 3 is a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is drivingly connected to the threaded rod 241 via the reduction gear set 25 .

[0035] Specifically, the output shaft of the motor is drivingly connected to the reduction gear set 25 via a worm and a worm wheel, and the reduction gear set 25 is drivingly connected to the transmission worm via a helical gear.

[0036] In this embodiment, the motor will drive the transmission worm to rotate at a low speed through the reduction gear set 25, thereby driving the driven worm wheel 242 through the transmission worm, so that the driven worm wheel 242 drives the follower gear 23 to roll along the rack 21 at a low speed, so that the corresponding massage head 7 moves and rotates at a low speed, so as to imitate the pushing and pressing massage technique of traditional Chinese medicine to massage the user's muscles. At the same time, the motor directly drives the follower gear 23 through the transmission worm, which also effectively shortens the transmission chain and reduces power loss, making the movement and rotation of the massage head 7 more powerful, thereby improving the massage experience.

[0037] Furthermore, the guide structure 20 is a slide rod, two slide rods are provided and distributed along the width direction of the base 1, and the slider 22 can be slidably mounted on the two slide rods so that the slider 22 can be limited by the two slide rods so that the slider 22 can only slide along the length direction of the slide rods.

[0038] Furthermore, the massage movement also includes two boundary sensors 41 and a trigger member 43. The two boundary sensors 41 are fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the base 1 and distributed along the length direction of the guide structure 20. The trigger member 43 is arranged on the slider 22. The trigger member 43 can slide with the slider 22 to approach any boundary sensor 41. When the trigger member 43 is adjacent to the boundary sensor 41, the boundary sensor 41 can be triggered.

[0039] Furthermore, the massage movement also includes a positioning sensor 42, which is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of the base 1 and located between the two boundary sensors 41. The trigger 43 can slide close to the positioning sensor 42 along with the slider 22. When the trigger 43 is adjacent to the positioning sensor 42, the positioning sensor 42 can be triggered.

[0040] Furthermore, the boundary sensing element 41 and the positioning sensing element 42 are both Hall sensors, and the trigger element 43 is a magnet.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the slider 22 slides toward one end of the slide rod and the magnet approaches a boundary sensor 41, the boundary sensor 41 will be triggered. After the corresponding control main board detects the signal of the boundary sensor 41, it will control the motor to reverse and make the slider 22 reverse its direction and slide toward the other end of the slide rod. Similarly, when the magnet triggers another boundary sensor 41, the slider 22 will change its sliding direction again, and so on, thereby realizing the reciprocating movement of the massage head 7. At the same time, when the user turns off the massager, the slider 22 will slide along a predetermined route until the magnet approaches the positioning sensor 42, and the magnet will trigger the positioning sensor 42. After the corresponding control main board detects the signal of the positioning sensor 42, it will turn off the motor, thereby realizing the shutdown and reset of the massage head 7.

[0042] In one embodiment, the boundary sensor 41 and the positioning sensor 42 are both mechanical switches, such as micro switches, and the trigger 43 is a protrusion disposed on the slider 22. The slider 22 can move to make the protrusion approach and trigger the mechanical switch (not shown in the figure).

[0043] In one embodiment, the boundary sensing element 41 and the positioning sensing element 42 are both optical sensors, such as optocouplers, and the trigger element 43 is a baffle plate set on the slider 22. Under normal circumstances, the optocoupler is turned on. When the baffle plate moves with the slider 22 to between the transmitting end and the receiving end of the optocoupler, the transmitting end and the receiving end of the optocoupler will be separated, thereby triggering the optocoupler (not shown in the drawings).

[0044] Furthermore, the massage movement also includes a second massage device, the motor is centrally arranged on the base 1 and arranged along the width direction of the base 1, the first massage device 2 is arranged at the left end of the base 1, and the second massage device is arranged at the right end of the base 1. The second massage device and the first massage device 2 are symmetrical with the axis of the motor as the center line. Two avoidance openings 12 are symmetrically opened at both ends of the base 1, and the avoidance openings 12 are arranged in the same direction as the guide structure 20. When in use, the motor will drive the first massage device 2 and the second massage device to operate at the same time, so as to increase the massage points of the massage movement through the second massage device with the same structure, so as to simulate the simultaneous massage of both hands and improve the massage effect.

[0045] A massager comprises a massage movement, an outer cover 5, two elastic cloths 6, two groups of massage heads 7 and a pair of straps 8. The outer cover 5 is spliced ​​with a base 1 to enclose a receiving chamber 11 for accommodating a first massage device 2, a second massage device and a driving member 3. The two elastic cloths 6 are both arranged on the inner side wall of the base 1 and cover the avoidance opening 12 one by one. The rotating shaft 231 of the follower gear 23 extends toward the inner side wall of the base 1. The rotating shaft 231 passes through the corresponding avoidance opening 12 and penetrates the corresponding elastic cloth 6 to the outside. The massage heads 7 are arranged one by one on the through ends of the rotating shaft 231. The massage heads 7 include a revolving head and two self-rotating heads. The revolving head is fixedly connected to the through end of the rotating shaft 231, and the two self-rotating heads are rotatably connected to the two sides of the revolving head respectively. The straps 8 are respectively arranged at both ends of the base 1. When in use, the massager can be tied to the user's back through the straps 8. When the rotating shaft 231 moves synchronously with the slider 22 in the avoidance opening 12, the follower gear 23 will drive the rotating shaft 231 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the two massage heads 7 to move away from or approach each other along the length direction of the base 1 while maintaining self-rotation, and using the self-rotating heads to roll and squeeze the user's back muscles. The first massage device 2 and the second massage device with the same structure and movement mode respectively drive the corresponding massage heads 7 to move and rotate, simulating both hands pushing and pressing the user's back muscles at the same time for massage. In this process, the elastic cloth 6 will undergo adaptive deformation and always cover the avoidance opening 12 to prevent external dust and debris from entering the accommodating cavity 11.

[0046] Specifically, a battery is built into the accommodating cavity 11 , and the battery can supply power to the motor, the boundary sensing element 41 , the positioning sensing element 42 and the corresponding control mainboard.

[0047] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are given in the accompanying drawings, but they do not limit the patent scope of the present invention. The present invention can be implemented in many different forms.
