Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of life and health care, and particularly to a steering device. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, people use tools with vibration functions such as fascia guns and health care massage devices, aiming them at corresponding positions on the body for massage. However, this method cannot massage the user's back. For this reason, a fixed suction cup for fixing a fascia gun has emerged. The fascia gun is installed on the wall through the fixed suction cup. The user stands in front of the fascia gun with their back facing the "gun head" of the fascia gun, and the "gun head" massages their back. Therefore, it is often necessary to fix the fascia gun, that is, the massage tool, at a certain angle.

[0003] However, most of the existing massage tools can only be fixed perpendicular to the external surface along their own length direction. For example, they are placed vertically on the ground or tabletop, or adsorbed horizontally on the wall, resulting in overly single angles and being unable to meet the personalized needs of users due to the different body shapes of each user, thus affecting the user experience. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on this, in view of the problem of overly single angles during the use of massage tools, it is necessary to provide a steering device that is fixedly connected to the massage tool and can be used to pre-adjust and fix the desired angle before using the massage tool. Specifically, the device includes:

[0005] A bracket, on which there are relatively arranged first and second baffles, and a female seat is provided. The female seat is used for detachable connection with a base;

[0006] A steering gear, connected between the first and second baffles. One end of the steering gear is provided with a male head that is detachably connected to the main body of the massage tool;

[0007] A holding member, located on the side of the first baffle away from the second baffle. The holding member can hold against the first baffle and drive the first baffle to approach the second baffle to clamp the steering gear.

[0008] In one embodiment, the connection between the first baffle and the main body of the bracket is elastic.

[0009] In one embodiment, it further includes a limiting shaft that sequentially passes through the first baffle, the steering gear, and the second baffle. The holding member is threadedly connected to the limiting shaft.

[0010] In one embodiment, the second baffle is provided with a square through-hole, and the part of the limiting shaft located in the square through-hole fits with the inner wall of the square through-hole.

[0011] In one embodiment, a plurality of first teeth are provided on a side of the second baffle plate close to the first baffle plate, and the plurality of first teeth are evenly spaced along the outer circumferential surface of the limiting shaft, and a plurality of second teeth capable of meshing with the first teeth are provided on a side of the steering gear close to the second baffle plate.

[0012] In one embodiment, the included angle between two adjacent first teeth is 8° to 15°.

[0013] In one embodiment, the abutting member includes a nut threadedly connected to the limiting shaft and a rotating member, and the rotating member is configured to be sleeved on the nut.

[0014] In one of the embodiments, it also includes an adsorption seat, which is detachably connected to the mother seat of the bracket, and the adsorption seat is used to be fixedly connected to the external surface.

[0015] In one of the embodiments, a connecting shaft is further included, both ends of the connecting shaft are provided with a first external thread, and the bracket and the adsorption seat are configured to be threadably connected to the connecting shaft.

[0016] In one embodiment, the male head is provided with a second external thread which is threadably connected to the main body of the massage tool.

[0017] The above-mentioned steering device includes a bracket, a steering gear and a supporting member. The existing massage tool includes a main body and a suction cup. The main body and the suction cup are detachably connected by threaded connection or clamping. When the angle of the massage tool main body is required to be different from the angle of the suction cup, the main body and the suction cup can be disassembled, and then the commutator in the present application is used to fix the main body of the massage tool. The side of the bracket facing away from the adsorption seat is provided with a first baffle and a second baffle. The steering gear is connected between the first baffle and the second baffle, and one end thereof is provided with a male head to connect the main body of the massage tool to be used by the user. The supporting member is located on the side of the first baffle facing away from the second baffle. The supporting member can abut against the first baffle and drive the first baffle close to the second baffle, thereby clamping or loosening the steering gear. The bracket is connected to the suction cup of the massage tool and is fixed on an external surface such as a wall or the ground using the suction cup of the massage tool.

[0018] The steering device provided in the present application can set the steering gear to a predetermined angle, and then adjust the distance between the first baffle and the second baffle through the supporting member, so that the steering gear can be clamped. In this way, the steering gear can not only adjust the angle to adapt to the user's body shape, but also fix the massage tool at a certain angle. As a result, the massage tool used by the user can point the fascia gun to the user's body part more accurately by fixing any angle, and massage the user's body part more stably, effectively improving the user's experience.

[0029] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there can also be an intermediate element. If an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. If so, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "up", "down", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are only for the purpose of illustration and do not represent the only implementation.

[0030] Refer to Figures 1 to 3, this application provides a steering device (hereinafter referred to as the device) to change the inherent angle of the massage tool itself. Generally, the massage tool includes a main body and a base. The main body is the stimulating body, which can produce a massage effect on the human body, thereby making the user feel physical pleasure. The base is mainly a suction cup to better adsorb on smooth surfaces such as glass surfaces, wall surfaces or ground surfaces. In addition, since massage tools are gradually standardized, the main body and the base may not be the same set of products. For example, the user buys a general clamp, which can replace the base and connect with the main body, or the user buys another set of massage tools without a base, and can also use the base of other massage tools or purchase a general model base such as a suction cup or a clamp by himself. The main components of the device include a bracket 110, a steering gear 130 and a holding member 150. Among them, the bracket 110 is provided with a first baffle 120 and a second baffle 140 arranged oppositely, and in order to connect with the base of the massage tool, the bracket is also provided with a female seat 111. For example, when the base of the massage tool is provided with a protruding external thread member, the female seat 111 is a structure with an internal thread that can cooperate with the external thread; the steering gear 130 is connected between the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140, and one end of the steering gear 130 is provided with a male head 131 fixedly connected to the main body of the massage tool. It can be understood that when the base of the massage tool is provided with an external thread member, the connection end of its main body and the base is a blind hole with an internal thread, so the male head 131 is a protrusion that can enter the blind hole and be threadedly connected thereto; the holding member 150 is located on the side of the first baffle 120 facing away from the second baffle 140, and the holding member 150 can hold against the first baffle 120 and drive the first baffle 120 to approach the second baffle 140 to clamp the steering gear 130.

[0031] It can be understood that in this application, the female seat of the bracket can be connected not only to the base of the massage tool itself, but also to other tools for fixing external surfaces such as clamps and suction cups purchased separately by the user.

[0032] For the steering device provided by this application, the steering gear 130 is preset to a predetermined angle in advance, and then the distance between the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140 is adjusted through the holding member 150, so that the steering gear 130 can be clamped. In this way, the steering gear 130 can be fixed at a certain angle and then the main body of the massage tool is fixedly connected to the steering gear 130, so that the massage tool used by the user can be used at any angle, effectively ensuring the user's use experience.

[0033] It can be understood that in the above embodiment, when the steering gear 130 has no connection relationship with the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140 respectively, the fixed angle of the steering gear 130 is mainly achieved through the static friction force between it and the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140.

[0034] In one embodiment, the connection between the first baffle 120 and the main body of the bracket 110 is elastic.

[0035] Specifically, except for the elastic connection mentioned above, the rest of the bracket 110 can be made of a material with a relatively high hardness such as stainless steel. Due to the elastic connection, the first baffle 120 can deflect relative to the main body of the bracket 110. Refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2 , since the first baffle 120 is plate-shaped, the offset in the thickness direction is necessarily easier and greater in amplitude than the offset in the width direction. Therefore, after the angle of the steering gear 130 is adjusted, the abutting member 150 can push the first baffle 120 to move towards the steering gear 130 along its thickness direction until it clamps the steering gear 130 together with the second baffle 140. The elastic connection between the first baffle 120 and the main body of the bracket 110 has a low manufacturing cost and obvious effects.

[0036] Refer to Figure 3 , in one embodiment, it further includes a limit shaft 160. The limit shaft 160 sequentially passes through the first baffle 120, the steering gear 130, and the second baffle 140, and the abutting member 150 is threadedly connected to the limit shaft 160. The limit shaft 160 can prevent the problem that the static friction force between the steering gear 130 and the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140 is too small, resulting in the steering gear 130 detaching from the bracket 110.

[0037] Specifically, both the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140 are provided with through holes for the limit shaft 160 to pass through, and the steering gear 130 is provided with a channel 132 for the limit shaft 160 to pass through. The abutting member 150 is threadedly connected to the limit shaft 160. By rotating, the abutting member 150 can adjust the length of the limit shaft 160 located between the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140, so as to make the distance between the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140 shorter or longer, in order to better clamp or loosen the steering gear 130.

[0038] Refer to Figure 3 or Figure 4 , in one embodiment, the second baffle 140 is provided with a square through hole 141, and the part of the limit shaft 160 located in the square through hole 141 fits with the inner wall of the square through hole 141. When the abutting member 150 rotates relative to the limit shaft 160, since the part of the limit shaft 160 in the square through hole 141 is also square, it will not rotate synchronously, so that the user does not need to fix the limit shaft 160 with one hand and rotate the abutting member 150 with the other hand.

[0039] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, in one embodiment, a plurality of first teeth 142 are provided on a side of the second baffle 140 close to the first baffle 120. The plurality of first teeth 142 are evenly spaced along the outer peripheral surface of the limit shaft 160. A plurality of second teeth 133 that can mesh with the first teeth 142 are provided on a side of the steering gear 130 close to the second baffle 140. The meshing of the first teeth 142 and the second teeth 133 further reduces the dependence on static friction. After the steering gear 130 is clamped, the fixed angle is more reliable through the meshing of the teeth. At the same time, when adjusting the angle, due to the distribution of the first teeth 142 and the second teeth 133, it can also be used as a parameter for adjusting the angle, making the adjustment more convenient.

[0040] Preferably, in one embodiment, the included angle between two adjacent first teeth 142 is 8° to 15°. Within this angle range, the number of teeth of the first teeth 142 around the limit shaft 160 is between 45 and 24. When adjusting the angle of the commutator, a reference point can be set. The number of first teeth 142 bypassed by this point multiplied by the included angle between two adjacent first teeth 142 is the angle of rotation of the commutator, thus facilitating the use of the user.

[0041] In one embodiment, the abutting member 150 includes a nut 151 threadedly connected to the limit shaft 160 and a rotating member 152. The rotating member 152 is configured to be sleeved on the nut 151.

[0042] It can be understood that the main body of the abutting member 150 is the nut 151, and the nut 151 has an internal thread that mates with the external thread of the limit shaft 160. In order to make it more labor-saving for the user to abut, the abutting member 150 further includes a rotating member 152. Along the radial direction of the nut 151, the size of the rotating member 152 is larger, and the rotating member 152 can be sleeved on the nut 151. By rotating the rotating member 152, the nut 151 can be driven to rotate synchronously, so as to extend or shorten the length of the limit shaft 160 between the first baffle 120 and the second baffle 140.

[0043] Refer to Figure 1, in one embodiment, the present application further provides an adsorption seat 170. When the base of the massage tool or other purchased clamping parts, suction cups and other tools are lost or damaged in various situations and cannot be used, the adsorption seat 170 can replace the base or other adsorption tools. The adsorption seat 170 is detachably connected to the female seat 111 of the bracket. The adsorption seat 170 can be adsorbed on surfaces such as the ground, wall, glass surface, ceramic tile surface, etc. Specifically, the adsorption seat 170 can be made of rubber material to achieve better elasticity. The shape of the adsorption seat 170 is similar to a toilet plunger, provided with an air cavity and an opening. When in use, by squeezing the adsorption seat 170 to deform it, the gas volume in the air cavity will change. When the opening of the adsorption seat 170 is abutted against the external surface, the opening can be blocked by the external surface. When the adsorption seat 170 resumes its shape, the internal gas density will change, resulting in the air pressure in the air cavity being less than the external atmospheric pressure, so that the adsorption seat 170 can be adsorbed on the external surface. Similarly, when it needs to be removed, re-squeeze the adsorption seat 170 to make the internal gas pressure greater than the external air pressure, then the device can be taken off.

[0044] It can be understood that the adsorption seat 170 is not only made of rubber, and the part connected to the bracket 110 can be made of a harder material such as stainless steel to complete the detachable threaded connection.

[0045] Refer to Figure 3 , in one embodiment, it further includes a connecting shaft 180. Both ends of the connecting shaft 180 are provided with first external threads, and the bracket 110 and the adsorption seat 170 are configured to be able to be threadedly connected to the connecting shaft 180.

[0046] Specifically, a threaded connection is adopted between the main body of the bracket 110 and the adsorption seat 170. This method is simple, and the components are easy to process, and it is also very convenient for disassembly and cleaning.

[0047] Preferably, as Figure 3 shown in, both the bracket 110 and the adsorption seat 170 are provided with clamping parts. The two clamping parts are threadedly connected through the connecting shaft 180, and then the two clamping parts are respectively clamped with the notches of the bracket 110 and the adsorption seat 170.

[0048] In some other embodiments, a detachable connection such as clamping can also be adopted, or the main body of the bracket 110 and the adsorption seat 170 can be integrally provided directly to reduce the number of components and improve the durability of the entire device.

[0049] In one embodiment, a weight reduction hole is provided on the steering gear 130. It can be understood that in order to reduce the weight of the entire device and also for convenient cleaning, the steering gear 130 is provided with a hollow or configured with a weight reduction hole.

[0050] Refer to Figure 1In one of the embodiments, the male connector 131 is provided with a second external thread for threaded connection with the massage tool.

[0051] It can be understood that the shape of the male connector 131 and the connection features it has need to be determined according to the massage tool to be used by the user. For example, if the massage tool has a thread, the male connector 131 can be provided with a second external thread or a second internal thread that mates with the thread. Since the number and types of existing massage tools are not many and they have all been marketized and standardized, various types of male connectors 131 can be made to adapt to various types of massage tools.

[0052] In Figure 1 the commutator shown, the male connector 131 is provided with a second external thread for threaded connection with the massage tool to be threadedly connected to a certain existing massage tool.

[0053] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.

[0054] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present application. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application shall be subject to the appended claims.
