Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive seats, and more particularly to a foot massage system for second-row seats and the same. Background Technology

[0002] As users place increasing emphasis on car seat comfort, current practices include installing footrests on the backrests of front seats to provide foot support for rear passengers, thus meeting the requirements for seating comfort. However, current car footrests do not have foot massage functions, and traditional foot massage structures are bulky and too large to be installed on the footrests of car seat backs. There is an urgent need for a car foot massage system for second-row seats. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide an automotive foot massage system and its seat, which combines ordinary foot pedals with foot massage to enhance the overall luxury and comfort of the vehicle, thereby overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0004] This invention provides an automotive foot massage system, comprising: a massage system housing consisting of a footrest support plate and an upper housing; a transmission gear set disposed inside the massage system housing and rotatably connected to the footrest support plate; a drive motor disposed inside the massage system housing and driving the transmission gear set to rotate on the footrest support plate; and massage heads connected to the transmission gear set. The transmission gear set includes a set of primary driven gears, two sets of secondary driven gears, and a drive gear arranged parallel to each other on the footrest support plate. The output shaft extending from the drive motor drives the drive gear. The drive gear meshes with a set of primary driven gears, and the set of primary driven gears meshes with the two sets of secondary driven gears. The number of massage heads corresponds to the number of secondary driven gears. The bottom of each massage head is fixed to a secondary driven gear and rotates synchronously with it. The top massage protrusion of each massage head passes through a clearance hole in the upper housing and contacts the passenger's foot.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper surface of the upper housing is covered with a wear-resistant cloth for covering the massage head, the wear-resistant cloth being used to improve the service life of the massage head.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a heating pad is laid on the wear-resistant cloth.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one set of primary driven gears consists of two primary driven gears, and two sets of secondary driven gears consist of four secondary driven gears. One set of two primary driven gears simultaneously meshes with the driving gear, one set of secondary driven gears meshes with one of the primary driven gears, and the other set of secondary driven gears meshes with the other primary driven gear.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a set of two secondary driven gears simultaneously meshes with a primary driven gear, or a set of two secondary driven gears mesh with each other and then one of the secondary driven gears meshes with the primary driven gear.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper housing is provided with a number of clearance holes corresponding to the number of massage heads.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper surface of the upper housing is provided with fixed massage protrusions.

[0011] Another object of the present invention is to provide a seat in which a car foot massage system is mounted on the backrest.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0013] 1. This invention combines a regular foot pedal with a foot massage function. By adding a massage function, it imitates the kneading and massaging of a real person, providing a foot massage function for second-row passengers. This breaks the limitations of traditional car seat functions and enhances the overall luxury and comfort of the vehicle.

[0014] 2. The automotive foot massage system of the present invention further reduces its size by arranging the motor and the mounting housing in parallel and adjusting the corresponding transmission structure, thus successfully reducing the required space. Attached Figure Description

[0021] See Figure 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides an automotive foot massage system, comprising: a massage system housing consisting of a footrest support plate 1 and an upper housing 2; a transmission gear set disposed inside the massage system housing and rotatably connected to the footrest support plate 1; a drive motor 3 disposed inside the massage system housing and driving the transmission gear set to rotate on the footrest support plate 1; and massage heads 4 connected to the transmission gear set. The transmission gear set includes a set of primary driven gears 5, two sets of secondary driven gears 6, and a drive gear 7 arranged parallel to each other on the footrest support plate 1. The output shaft extending from the drive motor 3 drives the drive gear 7. The drive gear 7 meshes with a set of primary driven gears 5, and the set of primary driven gears 5 meshes with the two sets of secondary driven gears 6. The number of massage heads 4 corresponds to the number of secondary driven gears 6. The bottom of the massage head 4 is fixed to the secondary driven gear 6 and rotates synchronously with the secondary driven gear 6. The massage protrusion at the top of the massage head 4 passes through the clearance hole 8 of the upper housing 2 and contacts the passenger's foot. The upper surface of the upper housing 2 is covered with abrasion-resistant cloth 9 to cover the massage heads 4, which improves the service life of the massage heads 4. A heating pad is laid on the abrasion-resistant cloth 9. The number of clearance holes 8 on the upper housing 2 corresponds to the number of massage heads. The upper surface of the upper housing 2 is provided with massage fixing protrusions 11.

[0022] Furthermore, in this embodiment, one set of primary driven gears 5 consists of two primary driven gears 5, and two sets of secondary driven gears 6 consist of four secondary driven gears 6. One set of two primary driven gears 5 simultaneously meshes with the driving gear 7, one set of secondary driven gears 6 meshes with one of the primary driven gears 5, and the other set of secondary driven gears 6 meshes with the other primary driven gear 5. After the two sets of secondary driven gears 6 mesh with each other, one of the secondary driven gears 6 meshes with a primary driven gear 5.

[0023] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a car foot massage system is installed on the back of the seat 10.

[0024] Working principle: The drive motor 3 rotates in both directions, driving the transmission gear set and the massage head 4, causing the massage head 4 to rotate, simulating a human hand massage. Because the transmission gear set is installed parallel to the foot pedal support plate 1, the overall thickness of the car foot massage system is similar to that of a regular foot pedal.

[0025] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
