Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of abdominal massage technology, and more specifically to an abdominal massage device for relieving functional constipation. Background Technology
[0002] Functional constipation is a common digestive system problem that causes discomfort and distress for many patients. In daily life, people often try to relieve functional constipation by adjusting their diet and increasing exercise. However, these methods often take a long time to show results, and for some patients, the effects are not significant. At the same time, some traditional abdominal massage techniques rely on manual operation, which makes it difficult to control the massage intensity and frequency, as well as the duration and stability of the massage. This makes it difficult to provide patients with continuous and effective massage stimulation and meet their needs for relieving functional constipation.
[0003] While some abdominal massage devices exist on the market, most are single-function, offering only basic massage. These devices typically have fixed massage methods, unable to be flexibly adjusted according to the patient's specific needs and physical condition, making it difficult to achieve diverse massage effects. Furthermore, most massage devices lack auxiliary functions such as heat application or moxibustion, failing to provide comprehensive abdominal conditioning from multiple perspectives, thus limiting their effectiveness in relieving functional constipation. In addition, existing massage devices may have some unreasonable structural designs, such as inflexible movement of massage components requiring the application of lubricant to the abdomen to prevent injury, and failing to effectively massage and stimulate the abdomen, affecting the overall user experience and therapeutic effect. Therefore, we propose an abdominal massage device for relieving functional constipation to address the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0026] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.
[0028] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-5An abdominal massage device for relieving functional constipation includes a massager housing 1. In use, the massager housing 1 is first fixed to a suitable position on the patient's abdomen via a tightening strap 3 and an adjusting buckle 4 on the connecting parts 2 hinged to both sides of the bottom. Then, a servo motor 17 fixedly mounted on the mounting base 16 is activated. The output of the servo motor 17 drives one of the gears 13 connected to it to rotate. Since the inner gear ring 14 of the inner ring of the first rotating ring 9 and the outer gear ring 20 of the outer ring of the second rotating ring 19 mesh with three gears 13 evenly rotatably connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 10, the rotation of this gear 13 will drive the other gears 13, the inner gear ring 14, and the outer gear ring 20 to rotate, thereby causing the first rotating ring 9 and the second rotating ring 19 to rotate. Massage beads 8, rotatably connected to the bottom ends of multiple connecting posts 7 evenly fixedly mounted at the bottom of the first rotating ring 9 and the second rotating ring 19, will massage the abdomen as they rotate. The massage beads 8 can rotate in any direction within the groove at the bottom of the connecting posts 7, allowing for better contact with the abdomen for massage and preventing skin damage during massage.
[0029] Simultaneously, the servo electric cylinder 12 fixedly installed inside the mounting housing 5 is activated. The output end of the servo electric cylinder 12 drives the placement housing 11 to move up and down. The placement housing 11 is connected to the lifting plate 10 through a sliding groove and a slider, thereby driving the lifting plate 10 to slide within the fixed housing 6. The T-shaped sliding groove on the inner wall of the fixed housing 6 and the slider on the outer ring of the lifting plate 10 cooperate to ensure the stable sliding of the lifting plate 10. This allows the massage height of the massage beads 8 to be adjusted to meet the needs of different patients.
[0030] If moxibustion is needed as an adjunct therapy, rotate the threaded rod 18 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top of the housing 11. The threaded rod 18 passes through the adjusting column 25 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the moxibustion box 23. The adjusting column 25 has a threaded hole that matches the threaded rod 18 at the point where it is passed through. Rotating the threaded rod 18 can cause the adjusting column 25 to drive the mounting plate 22 to slide within the housing 11 through the slide groove and the slider, thereby adjusting the height of the moxibustion box 23. The spring 15 between the mounting plate 22 and the inner wall of the top of the housing 11 can play a buffering and auxiliary adjustment role.
[0031] By turning the handle 26, the lid 21 of the moxibustion box 23, which is connected by threads, can be opened. The burning moxibustion material is placed into the moxibustion box 23, and then the lid 21 is closed. The smoke generated by the moxibustion can be applied to the abdomen through the smoke outlet on the lid 21.
[0032] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-5When using this device, first fix the massager housing 1 to the patient's abdomen with the tightening strap 3 and the adjusting buckle 4. According to the patient's needs for massage intensity, first adjust the height of the lifting plate 10 through the servo cylinder 12, and then adjust the contact intensity between the massage beads 8 and the abdomen. Then turn on the servo motor 17, which drives the gear 13 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the gear 13, the inner gear ring 14 and the outer gear ring 20, the first rotating ring 9 and the second rotating ring 19 rotate, allowing the massage beads 8 to massage the abdomen. During the massage, some lubricant can also be applied to the abdomen.
[0033] During the massage, if the patient feels that the massage beads 8 do not rotate flexibly enough, the condition of the sliding groove at the bottom of the lifting plate 10 for the sliding rings at the top of the first rotating ring 9 and the second rotating ring 19 to slide smoothly in the T-shaped sliding groove can be checked. When moxibustion is needed, the rotating plate 24 with anti-slip protrusions at the bottom of the threaded rod 18 is rotated to drive the threaded rod 18 to rotate, and the height of the moxibustion box 23 is adjusted so that the moxibustion box 23 is in a suitable position. After opening the box cover 21 and putting in the moxibustion material, the cover is closed, allowing the moxibustion smoke to act on the abdomen through the smoke outlet to help relieve functional constipation.
[0034] Implementation effect: This device sets a first rotating ring 9 and a second rotating ring 19 at the bottom of the lifting plate 10. The bottom of the two rings are rotatably connected to the massage beads 8 via the connecting column 7. The servo motor 17 drives one of the gears 13, and the inner gear ring 14 and the outer gear ring 20 drive the two rotating rings to rotate, so that the massage beads 8 can rotate in any direction in the groove at the bottom of the connecting column 7, thereby achieving multi-directional massage of the abdomen, promoting intestinal peristalsis, and effectively relieving functional constipation. At the same time, the servo electric cylinder 12 can adjust the height of the lifting plate 10, thereby adjusting the contact force between the massage beads 8 and the abdomen to meet the massage needs of different patients.
[0035] By placing an adjustable-height moxibustion box 23 inside the housing 11, the adjustable column 25 and mounting plate 22 can be slid by rotating the threaded rod 18, thereby adjusting the height of the moxibustion box 23. Combined with the smoke vent on the lid 21, the moxibustion smoke can be applied to the abdomen to help relieve constipation. In addition, the bottom sides of the massager housing 1 are equipped with a tightening strap 3 and an adjustment buckle 4 via the connector 2, which makes it convenient for patients to fix the device in a suitable position on the abdomen and adjust the tightness at any time according to their own feelings, thereby improving the comfort and convenience of use.
[0036] The above specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to these embodiments without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
