[0002] A neck massage pillow or massager is a device used in the medical health field or daily life field to perform health massage on the cervical spine and shoulder muscles. Existing neck massage pillows generally use electrode massage heads or vibration motor massage heads to massage the human neck, such as the massage head mentioned in the specific implementation of the patent specification with patent application number CN201921580398.5. This type of massage head relies on electric pulses or vibrations to perform a small massage on the neck, and the massage strength is limited and there are safety hazards.

[0003] In response to this, a Chinese patent with patent application number CN2021216019639 proposes a neck massage movement and a neck massager, which implements a pinching and kneading massage action by providing a mechanical massage swing arm and a driving component that drives the massage swing arm to swing, wherein the massage swing arm has two massage protrusions facing one side of the neck. In this technical solution, although the massage swing arm drives the massage protrusion to implement a pinching and kneading massage action on the human neck, a relatively sufficient massage intensity can be obtained. However, since the massage protrusion is integrally formed with the massage swing arm, the hardness of the massage protrusion is relatively large, and discomfort is easily generated during the massage.

[0032] Some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the features of the following embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0033] Embodiment 1:

[0034] refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a neck massager, which specifically includes a housing 1 and a massage core 2 installed in the housing 1. The massage core 2 includes at least one pair of massage arms 21, and a pinching and kneading space is formed between the at least one pair of massage arms 21 to perform pinching and kneading massage on the neck of the user pinched therein.

[0035] In this embodiment, the massage arm 21 has a first arm portion 21a and a second arm portion 21b, and the mounting portion 3 is integrally connected to the first arm portion 21a. Specifically, the massage arm 21 is integrally formed by injection molding or extrusion molding to form the first arm portion 21a, the second arm portion 21b and the mounting portion 3.

[0036] In this embodiment, the mounting portion 3 extends in a direction perpendicular to the first arm portion 21a. The mounting portion 3 is joined with a first flexible massage head 4, which is fixed to the mounting portion 3 and faces the lower area of ​​the user's neck. Specifically, the first flexible massage head 4 can be fixed to the mounting portion 3 in a detachable manner, but in other embodiments, the first flexible massage head 4 can also be fixed to the mounting portion 3 in a non-detachable manner, such as by using a thermoplastic adhesive.

[0037] refer to Figure 5 As shown, in order to ensure reliable installation of the first flexible massage head 4, in this embodiment, the top of the mounting portion 3 has a mounting groove 31, and part of the first flexible massage head 4 is embedded in the mounting groove 31. Specifically, the first flexible massage head 4 includes a fixing portion 41 and a massage portion 42, wherein the fixing portion 41 is fixed to the mounting portion 3 by a fastener, that is, the first flexible massage head 4 is embedded in the mounting groove 31 by the fixing portion 41, wherein the fastener can be a conventional fastener such as a screw, a fixing pin, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0038] When using the above-mentioned neck massager, the first flexible massage head 4 is prone to slipping and rotating due to loose fasteners or insufficient fastening force due to long-term pinching and kneading massage action. Figure 6 As shown, at least one limiting column 411 is provided on the bottom surface of the fixing portion 41 to limit the rotation of the first flexible massage head 4. In this embodiment, the limiting columns 411 are provided in two groups, but as some variations of this embodiment, the limiting columns 411 may also be provided in three or more groups to make the limiting of the first flexible massage head 4 more reliable.

[0039] refer to Figures 6 to 7 As shown, the diameter of the massage part 42 is larger than that of the fixing part 41, so as to form a shielding edge 43 on the outer periphery of the fixing part 41. And when viewed in the axial direction of the first flexible massage head 4, the shielding edge 43 covers the mounting part 3 to prevent the mounting part 3 from pressing the neck of the user.

[0040] In this embodiment, the top of the first flexible massage head 4 facing the user's neck is configured as an arc surface, and the arc surface is suitable for making the contact between the first flexible massage head 4 and the human neck more comfortable during massage.

[0041] refer to Figure 1 , 4 As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the first flexible massage head 4 has at least one inclined surface 44, and the inclined surface 44 is configured to be inclined from the inside to the outside along the direction in which the user's neck leaves the kneading space, so as to increase the contact area between the first flexible massage head 4 and the user's neck. In this embodiment, the inclined surface 44 is provided as a group, but as some variations of this embodiment, the inclined surface 44 can be provided as two or more groups as needed to further increase the contact area.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] refer to Figures 1 to 5As shown, the massage arm 21 also includes a second flexible massage head 5, and a portion of the second flexible massage head 5 is embedded and installed on the second arm portion 21b. The first arm portion 21a and the second arm portion 21b are spaced apart. In this embodiment, the first flexible massage head 4 and the second flexible massage head 5 are spaced apart by a certain distance to massage different areas of the user's neck. It is understandable that the massage arm 21 can also be provided with two or more bifurcated arms to provide a more delicate massage to the user's neck.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first flexible massage head 4 and the second flexible massage head 5 are both silicone massage heads. Compared with the mounting portion 3 integrally connected to the massage arm 12, the silicone massage head is softer and thus better meets the hardness requirements for contact with the human body, thereby improving the massage comfort.

[0045] refer to Figures 2 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the neck massager further includes a driving mechanism 22 for driving the pair of massage arms 21 to tilt and swing in opposite directions, so that the pair of massage arms 21 are moved closer to or farther away from each other in the arm length direction, thereby performing a pinching and kneading massage on the neck of the user being pinched. Here, the setting of the driving mechanism 22 belongs to the known technology and has nothing to do with the purpose of the invention of the utility model, so it will not be described in detail.

[0046] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the structure of the second flexible massage head 5 can be set to be the same as that of the first flexible massage head 4. That is, the second flexible massage head 5 can also have a fixed portion and a circular arc massage portion, but the second flexible massage head 5 is embedded in the second arm portion 21b through the fixed portion, rather than embedded in the mounting portion 3. In other embodiments, the massage portion of the second flexible massage head 5 can also be set to a petal-shaped, round cake-shaped, or other acupressure massage portion to achieve the effect of acupressure massage, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0047] The utility model can meet the requirements of massage intensity because the mechanical massage arm 21 is used to drive the massage head to perform massage actions. At the same time, a flexible massage head 4 is arranged on the mounting portion 3 to further make the massage intensity softer, thereby further improving the massage experience of the user.

[0048] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
