Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of massage devices, and particularly to a roaming massager. Background Art

[0002] When massaging, the massage heads of a backrest-type massager can move along the user's back and massage the muscles at all positions on the user's back to relieve the fatigue accumulated in the user's life or work.

[0003] However, as disclosed in a Chinese patent "CN103284871A", a massage device with two-dimensional movement ability, when this massage device performs roaming massage, it needs to be driven by a first drive motor and a second drive motor to drive the massage assembly to roam in the Y direction (up and down direction) and the X direction (left and right direction), and at the same time, the massage assembly (the internal power device drives itself) performs yaw massage on the user's back; thus, this massage device uses two sets of power motors to drive the massage assembly to roam and one set of power motors to drive the massage assembly to yaw. Its structure is complex and power consumption is large, and the entire movement structure is not compact enough, resulting in a large volume of the massage device. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome at least one of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present application provides a roaming massager. This massager realizes fixed-point massage of the massage head at a fixed position on the user's back or realizes roaming massage of the massage head along the user's back through a first gear, a switching member, and a rack. Moreover, the transmission structure composed of the first gear, the switching member, and the rack is small and compact, and the transmission method between them is flexible and simple. The power of the power device in the massage assembly can be effectively utilized without wasting extra power.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present application to solve its technical problems is:

[0006] A walking massage device is proposed, which includes a massage component and a walking switching component; the massage component includes a first gear and a housing, the first gear is arranged inside the housing and rotates around a rotating shaft, a massage head is arranged on the housing, and the massage head is directly or indirectly connected to the first gear; the walking switching component includes a switching member and a rack, and the axial direction of the rack is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft; the switching member has an engaging portion, the switching member is arranged inside the housing and moves back and forth between a first position and a second position; when the switching member is in the first position, the engaging portion meshes with the first gear, and at the same time, the engaging portion meshes with the rack, and the housing slides relative to the rack; when the switching member is in the second position, the engaging portion does not mesh with the first gear, the engaging portion meshes with the rack, and the switching member is clamped with the housing, and the housing is stationary relative to the rack.

[0007] This application proposes a walking massage device. Compared with the prior art, its beneficial effects are as follows:

[0008] In this massager, the first gear is arranged inside the housing and rotates around the rotating shaft, and the axial direction of the rack is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft; the switching member has an engaging portion, and the switching member is arranged inside the housing and reciprocates between a first position and a second position; when the switching member is in the first position, the engaging portion meshes with the first gear, and at the same time, the engaging portion meshes with the rack. The first gear is driven by a power device inside the massage assembly and wants to rotate, thus generating a force on the switching member, causing the switching member to want to rotate, and it also generates a force on the rack. Relatively, the rack generates a reaction force on the switching member. Since the rack does not move, the reaction force of the rack affects the switching member, causing the switching member to rotate, and the first rack rotates, driving the housing to slide relative to the rack. The massage head on the housing performs a wandering massage on the user's back; when the switching member is in the second position, the engaging portion does not mesh with the first gear, the engaging portion meshes with the rack, and the switching member is clamped with the housing. The housing is stationary relative to the rack. The first gear is driven by a power device inside the massage assembly to rotate, driving the massage head to massage the user's back. Relatively, the user's back generates a reaction force on the massage head. However, since the first gear cannot generate a force on the switching member, and the switching member meshes with the rack and is clamped with the housing, the housing cannot move - the reaction force of the user's back on the massage head has an impact. At this time, the massage head on the housing performs a fixed-point massage on a fixed position of the user's back; thus, this massager realizes the fixed-point massage of the massage assembly on a fixed position of the user's back through the first gear, the switching member, and the rack, or realizes the wandering massage of the massage assembly along the user's back. Moreover, the transmission structure composed of the first gear, the switching member, and the rack is small and compact, and the transmission method between them is flexible and simple. The power in the massage assembly can be effectively utilized without wasting extra power. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] For better understanding and implementation, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the description of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] Such as Figures 1 - 9 and Figures 10 - 17As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides a walking massage device, which includes a massage component 1 and a walking switching component 2; the massage component 1 includes a first gear 3 and a housing 4, the first gear 3 is arranged inside the housing 4 and rotates around a rotation axis 5, and a massage head 6 is arranged on the housing 4, and the massage head 6 is directly or indirectly connected to the first gear 3; the walking switching component 2 includes a switching member 7 and a rack 8, and the axial direction of the rack 8 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotation axis 5; the switching member 7 has an engaging portion 9, the switching member 7 is arranged inside the housing 4 and moves back and forth between a first position 100 and a second position 200; when the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the first gear 3, and at the same time, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the rack 8, and the housing 4 slides relative to the rack 8; when the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the engaging portion 9 does not mesh with the first gear 3, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the rack 8, and the switching member 7 is clamped with the housing 4, and the housing 4 is stationary relative to the rack 8.

[0033] Based on the above technical solution, when the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the first gear 3, and at the same time, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the rack 8. The first gear 3 is driven by a power device inside the massage component 1 and wants to rotate, thereby generating a force on the switching member 7, causing the switching member 7 to want to rotate, and it also generates a force on the rack 8. Relatively, the rack 8 generates a reaction force on the switching member 7. Since the rack 8 does not move, the reaction force of the rack 8 affects the switching member 7, the switching member 7 rotates, the first rack 8 rotates, driving the housing 4 to slide relative to the rack 8, and the massage head 6 on the housing 4 performs a walking massage on the user's back.

[0034] When the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the engaging portion 9 does not mesh with the first gear 3, the engaging portion 9 meshes with the rack 8, and the switching member 7 is clamped with the housing 4, and the housing 4 is stationary relative to the rack 8. The first gear 3 is driven by a power device inside the massage component 1 to rotate, driving the massage head 6 to massage the user's back. Relatively, the user's back generates a reaction force on the massage head 6. However, since the first gear 3 cannot generate a force on the switching member 7, and the switching member 7 meshes with the rack 8 and the switching member 7 is clamped with the housing 4, the housing 4 cannot move - the reaction force of the user's back on the massage head 6 has an impact. At this time, the massage head 6 on the housing 4 performs a fixed-point massage on a fixed position of the user's back.

[0035] In this way, the present massage device realizes the fixed-point massage of the massage component 1 on a fixed position of the user's back through the first gear 3, the switching member 7 and the rack 8, or realizes the walking massage of the massage component 1 along the user's back. Moreover, the transmission structure composed of the first gear 3, the switching member 7 and the rack 8 is small and compact, the transmission method between them is flexible and simple, and the power in the massage component 1 can be effectively utilized without wasting extra power.

[0036] It should be noted here that whether the massager performs wandering massage or fixed-point massage, the rack 8 remains stationary. In an actual product, the rack 8 can be installed on a base body, and the housing 4 can be selectively slidably connected to the base body or fixed to the base body through the rack 8 and the switching member 7.

[0037] As Figures 3 - 8 As shown in the figure, the switching member 7 is arranged inside the housing 4. When the switching member 7 moves between the first position 100 and the second position 200, it cannot affect the movement of the massage components 34 inside the housing 4, such as the first gear 3. Also, to save space inside the housing 4, the shape of the switching member 7 is preferably cylindrical.

[0038] Specifically, the meshing portion 9 is distributed at one end of the switching member 7, and when the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the other end of the switching member 7 is clamped with the housing 4.

[0039] And in order to achieve a small, compact and flexible transmission structure inside the housing 4.

[0040] In some embodiments, the wandering switching assembly 2 further includes a second gear 10, and the meshing portion 9 is meshed with the rack 8 through the second gear 10.

[0041] Specifically, the second gear 10 and the first gear 3 are coaxially arranged. And a mating flange 11 is provided on the side of the second gear 10 facing the first gear 3, and a mating groove 38 is provided on the corresponding side of the first gear 3. The mating flange 11 extends into the mating groove 38 of the first gear 3. In this way, the first gear 3 and the second gear 10 will not interfere with each other during rotation, and the first gear 3 and the second gear 10 will not separate. When the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the transmission between the first gear 3, the second gear 10, the switching member 7 and the rack 8 is coherent and there will be no jamming.

[0042] Furthermore, the switching member 7, the second gear 10 and the first gear 3 are coaxially arranged. When the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the meshing portion 9 is simultaneously internally meshed with the second gear 10 and the first gear 3, and the second gear 10 is externally meshed with the rack 8; when the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the meshing portion 9 is internally meshed with the second gear 10, the meshing portion 9 is not meshed with the first gear 3, and the second gear 10 is externally meshed with the rack 8.

[0043] The switching member 7, the second gear 10 and the first gear 3 are coaxially arranged, and the three of them will not occupy too much internal space of the housing 4. There is enough space inside the housing 4 to arrange the remaining components of the massage assembly 1, and the size of the housing 4 can be made smaller, which is convenient for users to carry.

[0044] The switching member 7 and the second gear 10 may also be non - coaxial (not shown in the drawings); when the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the engaging portion 9 is in external engagement with both the second gear 10 and the first gear 3, and the second gear 10 is in external engagement with the rack 8; when the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the engaging portion 9 is in external engagement with the second gear 10, the engaging portion 9 is not in engagement with the first gear 3, and the second gear 10 is in external engagement with the rack 8.

[0045] In addition, the wandering switching assembly 2 further includes a third gear 12. The third gear 12 is disposed on one side of the second gear 10, and the switching member 7 is engaged with the rack 8 via the second gear 10 and the third gear 12.

[0046] When the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the engaging portion 9 is engaged with the first gear 3. As the first gear 3 rotates, the switching member 7 rotates accordingly. The second gear 10 and the third gear 12 rotate synchronously with the switching member 7. The housing 4 wanders relative to the rack 8, and the massage head 6 on the housing 4 wanders. At the same time, the massage head 6 is directly or indirectly driven by the first gear 3 to massage the user's back.

[0047] As Figures 10 - 15 shown, in other embodiments, the engaging portion 9 includes a first engaging area 13 and a second engaging area 14. The first engaging area 13 and the second engaging area 14 are located at opposite ends of the switching member 7. And a first clamping portion 15 is provided inside the end of the switching member 7 having the second engaging area 14; when the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, the first engaging area 13 is engaged with the first gear 3, and at the same time, the second engaging area 14 is engaged with the rack 8; when the switching member 7 is in the second position 200, the first engaging area 13 is not engaged with the first gear 3, the second engaging area 14 is engaged with the rack 8, and at the same time, the first clamping portion 15 is clamped with the housing 4.

[0048] In this embodiment, the switching member 7 directly transmits power to the first gear 3 and the rack 8 without passing through other components. This greatly simplifies the transmission structure between the first gear 3 and the rack 8, effectively avoids the problem of gradual energy dissipation caused by multiple transmission components between the first gear 3 and the rack 8, and also avoids the problem of unstable and easily damaged structure caused by multiple transmission components between the first gear 3 and the rack 8.

[0049] It should also be noted here that the engaging portion 9 of the switching member 7 can be processed by the method of manufacturing gears in the prior art. The engaging portion 9 is formed by processing only one end of the switching member 7, or engaging areas are formed by processing both ends of the switching member 7, and these two engaging areas are the engaging portion 9.

[0050] Moreover, the first engaging portion 15 of the switching member 7 can also be formed when machining the engaging portion 9. Referring to the method of forming an internal gear ring in the existing gear machining technology, the first engaging portion 15 is machined, and an outer gear ring matching it is machined at the corresponding position on the housing 4 as the second engaging portion 37, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 16 shown in; the first engaging portion 15 and the second engaging portion 37 are engaged, and the engaging portion 9 and the rack 8 are engaged, which can lock the housing 4 on the rack 8 and prevent the housing 4 from moving during fixed-point massage and affecting the massage effect.

[0051] This massager can achieve roaming massage and fixed-point massage, and the user can selectively control the switching member 7 to stop at the first position 100 or the second position 200.

[0052] For the convenience of control, the switching member 7 moves in a straight line.

[0053] The switching member 7 can move back and forth in a straight line along the first direction X, and the first direction X is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rack 8.

[0054] Specifically, the roaming switching assembly 2 further includes a driving mechanism 16; the driving mechanism 16 includes a switching motor 17 and a switching gear 18. The output shaft of the switching motor 17 is connected to the switching gear 18. At least one annular groove 19 is provided on the outer periphery of the switching member 7, and the teeth of the switching gear 18 are connected in the annular groove 19; the switching motor 17 drives the switching gear 18 to rotate, driving the switching member 7 to move back and forth between the first position 100 and the second position 200.

[0055] Moreover, the driving mechanism 16 further includes a first limit switch 20 and a second limit switch 21, and both the first limit switch 20 and the second limit switch 21 are electrically connected to the switching motor 17; when the switching member 7 moves to touch the first limit switch 20, the switching motor 17 is powered off, and the switching member 7 stops at the first position 100; when the switching member 7 moves to touch the second limit switch 21, the switching motor 17 is powered off, and the switching member 7 stops at the second position 200.

[0056] When the switching member 7 stops at the first position 100, the engaging portion 9 of the switching member 7 is engaged with the first gear 3. At the same time, the engaging portion 9 is engaged with the rack 8. The first gear 3 rotates, and the switching member 7 rotates accordingly. The annular groove 19 on the switching member 7 rotates relative to the switching gear 18, and the switching gear 18 does not interfere with the rotation of the switching member 7. The switching member 7 rotates relative to the rack 8, and the first gear 3 can rotate relative to the rack 8, driving the housing 4 to slide relative to the rack 8. At this time, this massager performs roaming massage.

[0057] After that, the switching motor 17 can drive the switching gear 18 to rotate, so as to move the switching member 7 from the first position 100 to the second position 200. The engaging portion 9 of the switching member 7 is not engaged with the first gear 3, and the engaging portion 9 is engaged with the rack 8. At the same time, the first clamping portion 15 of the switching member 7 is clamped with the second clamping portion 37 of the housing 4, and the housing 4 is locked. At this time, the massager performs fixed-point massage.

[0058] Specifically, a plurality of annular grooves 19 are provided on the switching member 7, and the teeth on the switching gear 18 are always connected in the annular grooves 19 of the switching member 7, ensuring that the switching member 7 can move back and forth between the first position 100 and the second position 200.

[0059] The first limit switch 20 and the second limit switch 21 of the present application can select common components in the prior art, such as travel switches.

[0060] It should also be noted here that when moving the switching member 7 from the first position 100 to the second position 200, it is necessary to ensure that both the first gear 3 and the switching member 7 are in a static state. During the process of the switching member 7 moving from the first position 100 to the second position 200, it will not be interfered by the first gear 3.

[0061] In addition, the massager can also select to manually dial the switching member 7 to move it. The user can manually dial the switching member 7 to stop the switching member 7 at the first position 100 or the second position 200. Or, the driving mechanism 16 is a linear motor, a cam mechanism, a crank-slider mechanism, a screw-nut mechanism or a cylinder. The linear motor, the cam mechanism, the crank-slider mechanism, the screw-nut mechanism and the cylinder can all drive the switching member 7 to perform linear motion, so that it can be switched between the first position 100 and the second position 200; the connection manner between the linear motor, the cam mechanism, the crank-slider mechanism, the screw-nut mechanism or the cylinder and the switching member 7 can select common manners in the prior art, and will not be elaborated here.

[0062] In the present application, the massage assembly 1 further includes a massage motor 22 and a plurality of groups of massage mechanisms 23. Each group of massage mechanisms 23 includes a turbine 24 and a massage gear 25. The massage gear 25 of one group of massage mechanisms 23 is the first gear 3. The turbine 24 is engaged with the output shaft of the massage motor 22, the massage gear 25 is engaged with the turbine 24, and massage heads 6 are provided on the massage gear 25.

[0063] The first gear 3 has a rotating portion 31, a connecting portion 32, a mating groove 38, a covering portion 33 and a massaging portion 34. The rotating portion 31 is located inside the first gear 3. The rotating shaft 5 can pass through the rotating portion 31. The first gear 3 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 5 based on the rotating portion 31. The connecting portion 32 is located on the circumferential side of the rotating portion 31 and can cooperate with the engaging portion 9 of the switching member 7. The mating groove 38 is located on one side of the rotating portion 31 and the connecting portion 32 and mates with the mating flange 11 of the second gear 10 to ensure good connection between the first gear 3 and the second gear 10. The covering portion 33 is on the side of the first gear 3 opposite to the mating groove 38. The covering portion 33 can cover the end of the rotating shaft 5 to prevent the first gear 3 from being misaligned relative to the rotating shaft 5. The first gear 3 forms the massaging portion 34 on the covering portion 33. The massaging portion 34 can extend outside the housing 4 and be connected to the massage head 6.

[0064] In this way, the first gear 3 can cooperate with multiple components such as the switching member 7, the second gear 10, the rotating shaft 5, and the massage head 6. The first gear 3 can also mesh with the turbine 24, making the transmission structure of this massager compact, flexible, and convenient for transmission.

[0065] Preferably, the massage assembly 1 includes four groups of massage mechanisms 23. The four groups of massage mechanisms 23 are evenly distributed around the massage motor 22. The drive mechanism 16 is distributed between two adjacent groups of massage mechanisms 23. When the massage motor 22 moves, its output shaft can drive four turbines 24 to rotate simultaneously, and four massage gears 25 rotate synchronously. The massage heads 6 on the four massage gears 25 can perform massage synchronously. Moreover, when the switching member 7 is in the first position 100, one of the massage gears 25 - the first gear 3 drives the switching member 7 to rotate, and the switching member 7 rotates relative to the rack 8, that is, this massage gear 25 rotates relative to the rack 8, and the housing 4 can slide relative to the rack 8, and the massage head 6 can move around.

[0066] Alternatively, the massage assembly 1 includes two sets of massage mechanisms 23. Each set of massage mechanisms 23 further includes a massage gear 25 and a transmission gear 26. The massage gears 25 in the same set are arranged at intervals. The transmission gear 26 is arranged between two massage gears 25 in the same set and meshes with these two massage gears 25. The transmission gear 26 of one set is coaxially arranged with the third gear 12. The two sets of massage mechanisms 23 are symmetrically arranged on two opposite sides of the massage motor 22. The driving mechanism 16 is arranged between two massage gears 25 in different sets and at the same position. When the massage motor 22 moves, its output shaft can drive two turbines 24 to rotate simultaneously. The four massage gears 25 and the two transmission gears 26 rotate synchronously. The massage heads 6 on the four massage gears 25 can perform massage synchronously. Moreover, when the switching member 7 is located at the first position 100, one of the massage gears 25 - the first gear 3 drives the switching member 7 to rotate. The switching member 7 rotates relative to the rack 8, that is, this massage gear 25 rotates relative to the rack 8. The housing 4 can slide relative to the rack 8, and the massage head 6 can move around.

[0067] In this application, whether for moving around or for massage, only one motor - the massage motor 22 is needed: when the switching member 7 is located at the first position 100, the massage motor 22 operates, and its output shaft drives the turbine 24 to rotate. The rotation of the turbine 24 drives the massage gear 25, that is, the first gear 3 to rotate, and then drives the switching member 7 to rotate. The switching member 7 can rotate relative to the rack 8, that is, the first gear 3 can rotate relative to the rack 8. The housing 4 can slide relative to the rack 8, and the massage head 6 can move around. At the same time, the rotation of the first gear 3 can drive the massage head 6 to rotate, and can massage the user.
