At least a part of the flip bracket 11 can extend into the installation space 203 through the mounting hole to be connected with the driving component 13, so that the driving component 13 can transmit power to the flip bracket 11.

[0055] Furthermore, when the driving component 13 is in operation, power can be output to the flip bracket 11, thereby causing the flip bracket 11 to rotate relative to the glove box 200. When the user needs the foot massage component 1 to massage his feet, the driving component 13 can drive the flip bracket 11 to rotate relative to the glove box 200, so that the foot massage component 1 rotates close to the co-pilot seat, thereby allowing the user's feet to be placed on the foot massage component 1 for massage. When the user does not need the foot massage component 1 to massage his feet, the driving component 13 can drive the flip bracket 11 to rotate relative to the glove box 200, so that the foot massage component 1 rotates close to the glove box 200, thereby allowing the foot massage component 1 to be stored in the glove box 200, thereby improving the automation and ease of use of the foot massage device.

[0056] In some embodiments, the foot massage assembly 1 also includes a massage structure 12; wherein the flip bracket 11 includes a connecting member 111 and a mounting member 112, the massage structure 12 is installed on the mounting member 112, and both ends of the connecting member 111 are respectively connected to the mounting member 112 and the driving assembly 13.

[0057] Specifically, the foot massage assembly 1 can be movably installed in the glove box 200, and as shown in FIG. Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the foot massage component 1 is provided with a massage structure 12, and the massage structure 12 can be connected to the flip bracket 11 by welding or connecting parts, so that the massage structure 12 can rotate with the flip bracket 11 relative to the glove box 200, so that the massage structure 12 can be stored relative to the glove box 200 or opened outward. When the massage structure 12 is opened relative to the glove box 200, the user can place the feet on the massage structure 12, and the massage structure 12 can massage the user's feet. After the massage is completed, the massage structure 12 can be stored relative to the glove box 200, thereby increasing the activity space of the co-pilot seat and improving the flexibility and comfort of use.

[0058] Furthermore, if Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, the flip bracket 11 is provided with a connecting piece 111 and a mounting piece 112. The mounting piece 112 can be set as a plate-like structure, and the massage structure 12 is set on the mounting piece 112. The massage structure 12 can be connected to the mounting piece 112 by welding or a connecting piece, etc. The connecting piece 111 can be set as a long strip plate-like structure, and one end of the connecting piece 111 can be connected to the mounting piece 112 by welding or a connecting piece, etc., and the other end of the connecting piece 111 can be connected to the driving component 13, so that the mounting piece 112 can be connected to the driving component 13 through the connecting piece 111. The structure is simple, the installation is convenient, and the installation cost can be reduced. The power is directly output through the connecting piece 111, which can shorten the power transmission path, reduce energy loss, and reduce energy consumption.

[0059] In some embodiments, the connecting members 111 are provided in two groups, and the driving components 13 are provided in two groups. The two groups of connecting members 111 and the two groups of driving components 13 are connected one by one; the two groups of connecting members 111 are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the mounting member 112, and the massage structure 12 is located between the two groups of connecting members 111 and is provided above the mounting member 112.

[0060] Specifically, the mounting member 112 is connected to the driving assembly 13 through the connecting member 111, so that the driving assembly 13 can drive the massage structure 12 to be stored relative to the glove box 200 or opened outward by flipping the bracket 11. Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the connecting parts 111 are arranged in two groups, and one end of the two groups of connecting parts 111 is respectively connected to the two sides of the mounting part 112, and the driving components 13 are also arranged in two groups, and the two groups of driving components 13 are respectively connected to the two groups of connecting parts 111, so that each driving component 13 can drive the corresponding connecting part 111 to rotate relative to the glove box 200, thereby avoiding excessive load on a single driving component 13, ensuring the reliability of the driving component 13, extending the service life of the driving component 13, and ensuring that the two groups of connecting parts 111 have sufficient power.

[0061] Furthermore, the massage structure 12 is located between the two connecting members 111 and is arranged above the mounting member 112. When the connecting member 111 drives the mounting member 112 and the massage structure 12 to move, the forces generated by the mounting member 112 and the massage structure 12 all act on the connection between the connecting member 111 and the mounting member 112. The connecting member 111 is arranged into two groups, so that the forces generated by the mounting member 112 and the massage structure 12 can be dispersed to the two connecting members 111, thereby avoiding deformation caused by excessive force on a single connecting member 111, thereby extending the service life of the flip bracket 11.

[0062] Among them, the two connecting parts 111 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting part 112, so that the forces acting on the two connecting parts 111 are equal, avoiding excessive force on a single connecting part 111, resulting in bending or breaking, etc., extending the service life of the connecting part 111, and thus ensuring the reliability of the flip bracket 11.
