[0019] 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.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-7This invention provides an embodiment of an intelligent abdominal massager for pediatric treatment, comprising a massage mechanism 2 housed inside a housing 1. A control button is installed at the front end of the housing 1, and a connection hole and a charging hole are installed at the rear end. The massage mechanism 2 includes a base 201, a first servo motor 202, a rotating head base 203, and massage heads 204. The base 201 is housed inside the housing 1, and the first servo motor 202 is installed inside the base 201. The output end of the first servo motor 202 is fixedly connected to the rotating head base 203. Multiple sets of massage heads 204 with different shapes are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating head base 203. Two sets of positioning components 3 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the housing 1, simulating hands holding the sides of the abdomen to support the housing 1. To prevent the massage mechanism 2 at the bottom of the outer shell 1 from directly contacting the user's abdomen under the fixation of the fixing strap 4, which could cause pressure and discomfort to users with sensitive skin, two sets of fixing straps 4 are connected to the outside of the outer shell 1. A distance adjustment mechanism 5 is provided on the top of the massage mechanism 2. A fixing frame 101 is fixedly installed inside the outer shell 1. Several sets of support frames 102 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing frame 101. The bottom of the support frame 102 is respectively connected to the first fixing plate 103 and the second fixing plate 104. The positioning component 3 includes a second servo motor 301, a drive wheel 302, a synchronous belt 303, a rotating shaft 305, a driven wheel 306, a connecting plate 307, a connecting rod 308 and a positioning block 309. An auxiliary component 6 is provided inside the positioning block 309. This device, through the setting of positioning component 3 and distance adjustment mechanism 5, solves the problem that children are different from adults, with significant differences in body shape and skin sensitivity, and that continuous mechanical pressure can cause food reflux or compressive damage to organs.

[0021] Furthermore, a second servo motor 301 is fixedly installed inside the first fixed plate 103. A drive wheel 302 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second servo motor 301. A synchronous belt 303 is movably connected to the outer side of the drive wheel 302. Two pairs of fixed blocks 304 are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the fixed frame 101. A rotating shaft 305 is rotatably connected inside the two sets of fixed blocks 304. A driven wheel 306 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 305. The other end of the synchronous belt 303 is sleeved on the surface of the driven wheel 306. The outer side of the rotating shaft 305... A connecting plate 307 is fixedly connected, and a connecting rod 308 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting plate 307. A positioning block 309 is provided on the outer side of the connecting rod 308. Two sets of connecting plates 307 are connected to both ends of the connecting rod 308 respectively. One set of connecting plates 307 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 305, and the other set of connecting plates 307 is rotatably connected to another set of rotating shafts 305. The other positioning component 3 is similar. The bottom of the positioning block 309 is arc-shaped and made of silicone to improve the anti-slip effect and prevent displacement, thereby avoiding scratches. Figure 6As shown, this structure is used to place the outer shell 1 on the user's abdomen. According to the patient's body shape and needs, the second servo motor 301 is activated to drive the drive wheel 302 to rotate. The driven wheel 306 and the rotating shaft 305 are driven to rotate through the synchronous belt 303. The connecting plate 307 and the connecting rod 308 drive the positioning block 309 to rotate, so that the positioning block 309 fits against both sides of the user's abdomen. The two sets of positioning blocks 309 support the outer shell 1, preventing the massage head 204 from directly contacting the patient's abdomen and causing pressure on the user's abdomen.

[0022] Furthermore, the upper end of the massage mechanism 2 is provided with a distance adjustment mechanism 5, which includes a micro air pump 501, a three-way valve 502, a connecting pipe 503, and an airbag 505. The micro air pump 501 is fixedly installed inside the second fixing plate 104. The output end of the micro air pump 501 is fixedly connected to the three-way valve 502, and the other two ends of the three-way valve 502 are fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 503. Two sets of fixing holes 504 are opened inside the second fixing plate 104, and the bottoms of the two sets of fixing holes 504 are respectively connected to airbags 505. The bottom of the airbags 505 is fixedly connected to a base 201. Figure 5 As shown, the structure is used for support by the positioning component 3. At this time, the massage head 204 is kept at a certain distance from the user's abdomen. According to the patient's tolerance, the micro air pump 501 is activated. The gas enters the airbag 505 through the fixing hole 504 through the three-way valve 502 and the connecting pipe 503, inflating the airbag 505, thereby moving the base 201 to the appropriate position.

[0023] Furthermore, the auxiliary component 6 includes a pressure sensor 601 and a heating element 602. The pressure sensor 601 is installed at the center of the positioning block 309, and the output end of the pressure sensor 601 is located on the outer surface of the positioning block 309. Two sets of heating elements 602 are symmetrically installed inside the positioning block 309 with the pressure sensor 601 as the center. Figure 7 As shown, when the positioning block 309 is attached to the patient's abdomen, the internal pressure sensor 601 detects the pressure to avoid excessive pressure under the fixation of the fixing strap 4, which could cause discomfort to the user. The heating pads 602 on both sides generate heat when attached to provide heat to the user's abdomen, thereby improving the massage effect.

[0024] Furthermore, a battery 603 is installed inside the first fixing plate 103, and a PLC controller 604 is installed at the center of the first fixing plate 103. The battery 603 is located outside the PLC controller 604. The PLC controller 604 is connected to the base 201, the second servo motor 301, the micro air pump 501, the pressure sensor 601, and the heating element 602 via wires. Figure 7As shown, the structure is used to power the internal electronic components via the battery 603, while the PLC controller 604 controls the start and stop of the internal base 201, the second servo motor 301, the micro air pump 501, the pressure sensor 601, and the heating element 602.

[0025] Furthermore, a first elastic protective cloth 7 is fixedly connected to the top edge of the positioning block 309, and the other end of the first elastic protective cloth 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer casing 1. A second elastic protective cloth 8 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the positioning block 309, and the other end of the second elastic protective cloth 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom edge of the base 201. Figure 2 As shown, this structure is used to stretch the first elastic protective cloth 7 and the second elastic protective cloth 8 when the positioning block 309 rotates, so as to avoid gaps between the positioning block 309 and the outer shell 1 and the base 201, thus playing a role in dust prevention and protection.

[0026] Furthermore, the distance adjustment mechanism 5 also includes a distance detection component, which consists of a counting disk 506 and a position detection sensor 507. The counting disk 506 is fixedly connected to the front side of the base 201, and the position detection sensor 507 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 102. The output end of the position detection sensor 507 faces the counting disk 506. Figure 5 As shown, this structure is used to detect or record the position of the counting code disk 506 through several through holes. The position detection sensor 507 is a photoelectric sensor. The through holes at different positions correspond to the position detection sensor 507, which is used to detect or record the position of the counting code disk 506, thereby determining the height position of the base 201. The airbag 505 extends and retracts the base 201, so that the counting code disk 506 moves with the base 201 to change its position, thereby realizing the output of the height position of the base 201.

[0027] Furthermore, the positioning block 309 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the connecting rod 308. For example... Figure 7 As shown, this structure is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting rod 308 via the positioning block 309. When the positioning block 309 contacts the user's body surface, it can rotate freely, fit against the body surface to increase the contact area, and improve the stability of the device.

[0028] Working principle: When using, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer shell 1 is placed on the user's abdomen, and two sets of fixing straps 4 are wrapped around the user's body to simply secure the outer shell 1, as shown. Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, based on the patient's body shape and needs, the second servo motor 301 is activated to drive the active wheel 302 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the driven wheel 306 and the rotating shaft 305 to rotate via the synchronous belt 303. This causes the connecting plate 307 and connecting rod 308 to rotate the positioning block 309, placing it against both sides of the user's abdomen. The two sets of positioning blocks 309 support the outer shell 1, preventing the massage head 204 from directly contacting the patient's abdomen and causing pressure. When the positioning blocks 309 rotate, they stretch the first elastic protective cloth 7 and the second elastic protective cloth 8. When the positioning blocks 309 are against the patient's abdomen, the internal pressure sensor 601 detects the pressure to prevent excessive pressure from the fixing straps 4, which could cause discomfort. The heating pads 602 on both sides generate heat during contact, providing a warm compress to the user's abdomen and improving the massage effect. Figure 5 As shown, the massage head 204 maintains a certain distance from the user's abdomen. Based on the patient's tolerance, the micro air pump 501 is activated. Gas enters the airbag 505 through the fixing hole 504 via the three-way valve 502 and connecting pipe 503, inflating the airbag 505 and thus moving the base 201 to a suitable position. The position detection sensor 507 detects and records the position of the counting bar 506 to determine the height position of the base 201. Then, the first servo motor 202 is activated to drive the rotating head base 203 to rotate, so that the massage head 204 on the surface of the rotating head base 203 massages the user's abdomen counterclockwise or clockwise. Counterclockwise massage is used to slow down intestinal peristalsis and is suitable for cases of overactive intestines, while clockwise massage is used to promote intestinal peristalsis and is suitable for cases of insufficient intestinal peristalsis. The above is the complete working principle of the present invention.

[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
