[0027] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 The seating-sensing massage chair of this embodiment includes a massage chair 1, a capacitive sensing device 6, a control device, a driving device and a massage device. The capacitive sensing device 6, the control device, the driving device and the massage device are arranged inside the massage chair 1. The first head massage area 2, the hand massage area 3, the leg massage area 4 and the first body massage area 5 of the massage chair 1 are each provided with a capacitive sensing device 6. The output end of the capacitive sensing device 6 is connected to the input end of the driving device, and the output end of the driving device is connected to the massage device; the capacitive sensing device 6 includes an internal reference capacitor, a sensitivity setting capacitor and an inductive antenna, the internal reference capacitor is connected to one end of the first external capacitor, and the other end of the first external capacitor is grounded; the sensitivity setting capacitor is connected to one end of the second external capacitor, and the other end of the second external capacitor is grounded; the positive poles of the power supplies of the inductive antenna and the capacitive sensing device 6 are respectively connected in series with a resistor.

[0030] The present invention is provided with a capacitance sensing device 6 in each massage area of ​​the massage chair 1. Each massage area can be automatically turned on or off by the capacitance sensing device 6. After the user sits in the massage chair 1, different areas of the body come into contact with different areas of the massage chair 1, which triggers the capacitance sensing device 6. The capacitance sensing device 6 then starts the driving device and the massage device, thus realizing automatic startup of the massage chair 1. The massage devices in different areas are independently controlled by the capacitance sensing devices 6 in different areas, thus avoiding the situation where the massage devices are working but not being used, thereby preventing waste of resources.

[0031] The internal reference capacitor C1 is connected in series with the first external capacitor, and the value of the first external capacitor is 1nF-10nF; the sensitivity setting capacitor CSEL, the smaller the capacitance value, the higher the sensitivity, and the sensitivity is highest when the capacitor is not connected. The maximum capacitance value is 100pF and the minimum is 0pf, that is, it is left floating. The selection of the CSEL capacitor can be selected according to the application environment and the size of the contact sensor disk. In most cases, CSEL can be left floating, but it is recommended to retain the capacitor position on the PCB board to facilitate subsequent sensitivity adjustment; the sensing antenna KEY is connected in series with a 2KΩ resistor; the positive power supply VDD is connected in series with a 20Ω resistor, and the positive power supply VDD provides voltage input; the negative power supply GND is grounded; the output terminal OUT is the key output port.

[0032] Furthermore, the capacitive sensing devices 6 provided at the first head massage area 2 , the hand massage area 3 , the leg massage area 4 and the first body massage area 5 are connected in series.

[0033] The capacitance sensing devices 6 of each massage area are connected in series. The massage chair 1 will not start massaging until each capacitance sensing device 6 is activated, so as to prevent the massage chair 1 from being activated due to accidental touching of a certain massage area in actual use.

[0034] Furthermore, the capacitance sensor device 6 of the first body massage area 5 is arranged at the waist of the massage chair 1 or the buttocks of the massage chair 1 .

[0035] The capacitive sensor device 6 of the first body massage area 5 is arranged at a position that is easily accessible, ensuring that the capacitive sensor device 6 of the first body massage area 5 is triggered when the user sits on the massage chair 1, thereby improving the sensitivity of the massage chair 1 when starting.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes a control device, wherein the output end of the control device is connected to the input end of the driving device.

[0037] The control device can also control the driving device to facilitate the user to adjust the massage chair 1 according to needs.

[0038] Furthermore, the level of the control device's instructions to the drive device is higher than the level of the capacitive sensing device 6's instructions to the drive device.

[0039] The control device requires the user to operate it intentionally, and the capacitance sensor device 6 automatically controls the massage chair 1. Therefore, the command level of the control device is higher than the command level of the capacitance sensor device 6, so that the user can choose whether to operate each massage device according to needs.

[0040] Furthermore, the driving device includes an oscillator, a trigger circuit and an output circuit, the input end of the oscillator is connected to the capacitive sensing device 6 and the output end of the control device; the output end of the oscillator is connected to the input end of the trigger circuit; the output end of the trigger circuit is connected to the input end of the output circuit; and the output end of the output circuit is connected to the massage device.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] See also Figure 2-Figure 3The seating-sensing massage device of this embodiment includes a massage cushion 7, a capacitive sensor device 6, a control device, a drive device, and a massage device. The capacitive sensor device 6, the control device, the drive device, and the massage device are arranged inside the massage cushion 7. The second head massage area 8 and the second body massage area 9 of the massage cushion 7 are each provided with a capacitive sensor device 6. The output end of the capacitive sensor device 6 is connected to the input end of the drive device, and the output end of the drive device is connected to the massage device; the capacitive sensor device 6 includes an internal reference capacitor, a sensitivity setting capacitor, and an inductive antenna. The internal reference capacitor is connected to one end of a first external capacitor, and the other end of the first external capacitor is grounded; the sensitivity setting capacitor is connected to one end of a second external capacitor, and the other end of the second external capacitor is grounded; the positive pole of the power supply of the inductive antenna and the capacitive sensor device 6 is respectively connected in series with a resistor.

[0043] The capacitive sensing device 6, control device, drive device, and massage device of this embodiment are the same as those in Example 1. When using this device, different areas of the user's body come into contact with different areas of the massage pad 7, thereby triggering the capacitive sensing device 6 and activating the drive device and massage device through the capacitive sensing device 6, thereby automatically activating the massage pad 7.

[0044] Furthermore, the capacitance sensing device 6 of the second head massage area 8 and the capacitance sensing device 6 of the second body massage area 9 are connected in series.

[0045] Similar to Example 1, the capacitance sensor devices 6 of each massage area are connected in series. The massage pad 7 will not start massaging until each capacitance sensor device 6 is activated, so as to prevent the massage pad 7 from being activated due to accidental touching of a certain massage area in actual use.

[0046] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0047] After the user sits in the massage chair 1, different areas of the body come into contact with different areas of the massage chair 1, which triggers the capacitive sensing device 6, and activates the driving device and the massage device through the capacitive sensing device 6, thus achieving automatic startup of the massage chair 1;

[0048] If the current working state of the massage device does not meet the needs of the user, the user can adjust each massage device through the control device until it is adjusted to the desired state;

[0049] When the user does not want to continue using the massage chair 1, the massage chair 1 can be turned off by the control device; or the user directly leaves the massage chair 1, causing the capacitive sensor device 6 to stop running and the massage device to automatically turn off.
