For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.

[0029] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, this embodiment provides a kneading massage structure applicable to an automotive seat, including a first felt board 1, a massage airbag 2, a second felt board 3, and a bump massage board 4. Among them, the back side of the first felt board 1 is fixed to the polyurethane foam layer 20 of the seat, and the front side of the first felt board 1 is provided with the massage airbag 2. There are multiple massage airbags 2, and the multiple massage airbags 2 are sequentially arranged around the center of the first felt board 1. Each massage airbag 2 is provided with an air tube 5, and the air tube 5 is connected to an air pump, and a solenoid valve is provided on the air tube 5. The second felt board 3 is arranged on the front side of the massage airbag 2. The bump massage board 4 is arranged on the front side of the second felt board 3, and multiple massage bumps 4-1 are arranged at intervals on the front side of the bump massage board 4. The multiple massage bumps 4-1 are arranged in a circular manner. By sequentially inflating the multiple massage airbags 2 in a cycle, the massage bumps 4-1 on the bump massage board 4 are made to perform the actions of lifting and falling in sequence.

[0030] Further, continue as Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, there are three massage air bags 2, and the three massage air bags 2 are arranged in a triangle around the center of the first felt board 1. Each massage air bag 2 is composed of m layers of sub-air bags 2-1, where m>1 (in this application, m = 3). The adjacent sub-air bags 2-1 are in a connected state, and the connection channel of the sub-air bags 2-1 is arranged near the center of the sub-air bags 2-1; the sub-air bags 2-1 at the bottom of the massage air bag 2 are connected to an air pump through an air pipe.

[0031] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the back surface of the massage air bag 2 is fixed to the first felt board 1 by welding (fusion welding), and the front surface of the massage air bag 2 is fixed to the second felt board 3 by welding (fusion welding); among them, the first felt board 1 has two functions. The first is to be fixed to the polyurethane foam layer 20, and the second is to play a certain supporting role to prevent the massage force from leaking backward due to the softness of the polyurethane foam layer during massage; the main function of the second felt board 3 is intermediate transfer, which is used to connect the massage air bag 2 with the bump massage board 4; the bump massage board 4 is a plastic part, and the back surface of the bump massage board 4 is fixed to the second felt board 3 by welding (fusion welding).

[0032] Furthermore, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the sub-air bag 2-1 is circular or oval or bone-shaped or petal-shaped, preferably circular; of course, this application does not make any limitations on the specific shape, size, and number of layers of the sub-air bag 2-1. Those skilled in the art can choose different shapes according to actual needs, adjust the size of the massage air bag, control the number of layers of the sub-air bag, and the overall lifting height.

[0033] As Figures 5 to 7 shown in the figure, the present utility model also provides an automobile seat. The backrest of the automobile seat includes a skin 40, a comfort soft foam layer 30 (the comfort soft foam layer is made of PUR material), a polyurethane foam layer 20, and a backrest frame 10; among them, the above-mentioned kneading massage structure applicable to an automobile seat is provided between the comfort soft foam layer 30 and the polyurethane foam layer 20.

[0034] Furthermore, as Figure 6 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the backrest of the automobile seat further includes a support plate 50. The support plate 50 is arranged on the back surface of the polyurethane foam layer 40 to play a supporting role, avoiding the backward leakage of the massage force during massage by the kneading massage structure and affecting the massage effect.

[0035] Furthermore, as Figure 7 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the polyurethane foam layer 20 is provided with an installation groove 20-1 at a position opposite to the kneading massage structure, and the kneading massage structure is arranged in the installation groove 20-1;

[0036] Specifically, the first felt board 1 is fixed in the installation groove 20-1 by gluing.

[0037] Further, continuing as Figures 5 to 7 shown, in this embodiment, the polyurethane foam layer 20 is provided with four installation grooves 20-1, and the four installation grooves 20-1 are arranged in a rectangular pattern. Each installation groove 20-1 is provided with a kneading and massaging structure;

[0038] An air duct groove 20-2 matching the number of air ducts on the kneading and massaging structure is arranged outside the installation groove 20-1. The air duct groove 20-2 is communicated with the installation groove 20-1. The air ducts on the kneading and massaging structure are arranged in the air duct groove 20-2 and are arranged on the back of the polyurethane foam layer 20 after passing through the air duct hole (not marked) of the polyurethane foam layer 20 along the air duct groove 20-2; A felt (not shown) is arranged on the air duct groove 20-2, and the felt is used to cover the air ducts in the air duct groove 20-2. The felt is fixed on the polyurethane foam layer 20 by pasting.

[0039] The present utility model also provides a method for kneading by using the above kneading and massaging structure. The method includes the following steps:

[0040] Step 1. Number the three massage air bags sequentially arranged around the center of the first felt board as 1, 2, and 3;

[0041] Step 2. Control the air pump to inflate the massage air bags numbered 1 and 2, so that the massage air bags numbered 1 and 2 are in the lifted state, and the massage air bag numbered 3 is in the lowered state or semi-lifted state; The massage bumps corresponding to the positions of the massage air bags numbered 1 and 2 are lifted and contact the human back;

[0042] Step 3. Control the air pump to inflate the massage air bags numbered 2 and 3, so that the massage air bags numbered 2 and 3 are in the lifted state; After the air pump stops inflating the massage air bag numbered 1, the massage air bag automatically deflates due to no pressure-holding function, so that the lifted height of the massage air bag numbered 1 is lower than that of the massage air bags numbered 2 and 3; The massage bumps corresponding to the positions of the massage air bags numbered 2 and 3 are lifted and contact the human back;

[0043] Step 4. Control the air pump to inflate the massage air bags numbered 3 and 1, so that the massage air bags numbered 3 and 1 are in the lifted state; After the air pump stops inflating the massage air bag numbered 2, the massage air bag automatically deflates due to no pressure-holding function, so that the lifted height of the massage air bag numbered 2 is lower than that of the massage air bags numbered 1 and 3; The massage bumps corresponding to the positions of the massage air bags numbered 1 and 3 are lifted and contact the human back;

[0044] Step 5. Cycle through the inflation actions in Steps 2 to 4 according to the set single-cycle massage time, so that the massage bumps 4-1 on the bump massage plate 4 perform the actions of lifting and falling in sequence, and the rapid lifting and falling actions give the human body a kneading feeling.

[0045] In this embodiment, the single-cycle massage time in Step 5 is controlled within 8 - 16 seconds. 8s is the intensity level 1, 12s is the intensity level 2, and 16s is the intensity level 3. During massage, the kneading intensity is adjusted by setting the single-cycle massage time of the kneading massage structure. In addition, it is also possible to control the four kneading massage structures on the backrest to work simultaneously, separately and independently, or in any combination of 2 - 3. The specific massage mode can be selected according to the needs of the passengers.

[0046] The above is the specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can easily think of changes or substitutions, which should all be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
