[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0040] As shown in Figures 1-7, the present invention provides an embodiment of a massage device.

[0041] The massage device includes a shell 1, a control component and a first massage mechanism, wherein the shell 1 is provided with a rubber sleeve 12, and the first massage mechanism includes a chamber 123 formed on the rubber sleeve 12, that is, the chamber 123 is provided on the rubber sleeve 12, and the chamber 123 is provided with an opening 124 and a through hole 126; the control component includes a control circuit board 31 and an air pump 32 connected to the control circuit board 31, and the air inlet of the air pump 32 is connected to the chamber 123 through the through hole 126. Under the control of the control circuit board 31, the air pump changes the air pressure of the chamber matched with the massage part, thereby changing the air pressure and the size of the chamber.

[0042] Specifically, the housing 1 includes an upper housing 10 and a lower housing 11 that cooperates with the upper housing 10 to form a space for installing the control component 3. A rubber sleeve 12 is coated on the surface of the housing 1. The rubber sleeve 12 is usually elastic or flexible, such as silicone. The rubber sleeve 12 is provided with a chamber 123. The side wall of the chamber 123 and the rubber sleeve 12 are in an integrated structure. The chamber 123 is provided with an opening 124 at the massage end. The end face of the opening 124 is arc-shaped, which can increase the contact area between the massage and the massage part, increase the air tightness, and improve the comfort and massage effect during massage. The edge of the opening 124 can be provided with two grooves 125. The groove 125 uses the end face of the opening 124 to be similar to a V-shaped or U-shaped structure, so that the size of the chamber 123 can be changed more easily during massage and the direction of the opening can be controlled. At the same time, it can also better contact with the non-planar massage part, so that the chamber forms a better air tightness when numbness is pressed. The control circuit board 31 is provided with a control circuit and a control button, and can be powered by a battery 38 or connected to an external power source through a power interface.

[0043] When working, the opening 124 of the chamber 123 is matched with the massage part, that is, the chamber is covered on the massage part through the opening 124. Under the control of the control circuit board 31, the air pump 32 changes the air pressure in the chamber 123 matched with the massage part, thereby changing the air pressure and size of the chamber 123. When the air pressure decreases, the chamber 123 becomes smaller under the action of atmospheric pressure. The opening 124 of the chamber 123 of elastic or flexible materials such as silicone shrinks to a certain extent in the vertical direction of the line connecting the two grooves 125. When the air pressure decreases, the shapes of the chamber 123 and the opening 124 are restored, so that a hand-kneading massage effect is produced. When the control circuit board 31 periodically controls the air pump 32 to work, a continuous hand-kneading massage effect can be produced. The size of the chamber 123 is determined by the size of the air pressure change when the chamber 123 is working. Since massage is achieved by changing the air pressure in the chamber formed by the elastic rubber sleeve and by changing the shape of the opening 124 through the change in air pressure, the massage is gentler, and the massage intensity can be continuously adjusted by controlling the chamber pressure, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] In this embodiment, the side wall 121 of the chamber 123 gradually increases in thickness from the inside to the outside, so that the space of the chamber 123 can be reduced. When the air pump acts, it is easier to reduce the air pressure, which makes it easier to change the size of the chamber, change the opening 124, and better realize the hand-kneading massage process. The chamber 123 increases from the inside to the outside in the length direction. A control air valve 36 is provided between the air pump 32 and the chamber 123. When working, the air pressure holding time of the chamber 123 can be controlled by controlling the air valve 36. The tongue 122 is not connected to the side wall of the chamber, and it adopts an elastic paddle, and its material is the same as that of the rubber sleeve 12, and both are elastic or flexible, such as silicone material. The tongue 122 and the rubber sleeve 12 are integrally formed. The through hole 126 is located at the bottom of the chamber 123.

[0045] As a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the rubber sleeve further includes a tongue 122, which is disposed in the chamber 123 and is controlled to move by the control component. The tongue 122 is made of the same material as the rubber sleeve, preferably an integrated structure, which can increase the connection strength of the tongue 122 and increase its service life.

[0046] On the basis of the above embodiment, the present invention also provides another embodiment. The first massage mechanism also includes a first vibration motor 331 and a fixing seat 332 for fixing the first vibration motor 331. The fixing seat 332 is provided with an installation cavity (not shown in the drawings) and an installation slot 3321 connected to the installation cavity. The line connecting the first vibration motor 331 and the control circuit board 31 passes through the installation slot 3321. Under the control of the control circuit board 31, the first vibration motor 331 drives the tongue 122 to vibrate and massage. When installed, the first massage mechanism 33 is usually installed in a cavity (not shown in the drawings) on the tongue 122. The cavity is preferably slightly larger than the first massage mechanism 33, that is, there will be no tight fit. When working, the first vibration motor 331 can be controlled by the control board 31 to make the tongue 122 produce vibration massage. According to needs, the first vibration motor 331 and the air pump 32 can be controlled independently or in linkage. When linked control, multiple massage effects such as tongue swing massage, hand kneading massage and vibration massage can be superimposed to better improve the massage effect.

[0047] According to the needs, the first massage mechanism also includes a reduction motor 34, the output shaft of which is connected to the fixed seat 332, and is controlled by the control circuit board 31 to drive the reduction motor 34 to drive the working first vibration motor 33 to make the tongue 122 achieve swing massage. When the first vibration motor 331 is working, the tongue 122 can be swung and vibrated. The reduction motor 34 includes a motor 341 and a reduction gear set (not shown in the figure) connected to the motor 341, and an output shaft 342 connected to the reduction gear set. The output shaft 342 includes an output end connected to the fixed seat 332 and an input end connected to the reduction motor. The input end and the output end are provided with an angle a, and through such an angle, the first vibration motor 331 can be driven to rotate when the output shaft 342 rotates, so that the tongue 122 produces a swing massage effect. The angle a between the input end and the output end is 120-175 degrees. In order to control the swing size, the angle a is preferably 165-173 degrees.

[0048] As a preferred implementation of this embodiment, on the basis of the above embodiment, the massage device further includes a second massage mechanism 2, which is arranged at the other end away from the first massage mechanism, and includes a massage body 21 and a second vibration motor 22 arranged on the massage body. The second vibration motor 22 is connected to the control circuit board 31. When working, under control, the second vibration motor 22 causes the massage body 21 to produce vibration massage. The vibration massage, swing massage, and hand-kneading massage in the second massage mechanism 2 and the first massage mechanism can be controlled independently or in linkage, and how to control can be set according to actual needs. The housing 1 is provided with a fixing portion for mounting the massage body 21, and the fixing portion includes a protrusion along the length direction, and a fixing groove 101 is annularly distributed on the surface of the protrusion.

[0049] The massage part of the massage body 21 is provided with a massage ball, the diameter of which is larger than the minimum diameter of the massage body 21, but smaller than the maximum diameter of the massage body 21. The diameter of the massage body 21 gradually decreases from the shell to the massage ball. Such a structure can make the massage ball produce a vibration swing when the second vibration motor 22 has a small vibration, thereby reducing the noise during massage by controlling the vibration amplitude of the second vibration motor 22. At the same time, such a design can adapt to better regional massage. When the massage body 21 has a certain elasticity, it can make the massage ball more gentle during vibration massage, improving the massage experience.
