Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of massage barrels, in particular to a sealing structure of a massage barrel. Background Art

[0002] In the field of foot bath health care, as a common household health care product, the design of massage barrels is constantly innovated to meet the dual needs of users for comfort and health. Traditional massage barrels not only provide the function of warm water soaking, but also gradually integrate massage devices, aiming to promote blood circulation and relieve fatigue through foot massage. However, although this design concept brings a lot of convenience to users, in the actual use process, there are still some significant defects in the design of traditional massage devices, especially in terms of sealing and hygiene.

[0003] Specifically, the massage device is often only tightened on the bottom surface of the massage barrel by screws. When the screws are tightened, they will generate a downward pressure, which is evenly distributed on the surface of the fixed object. This uniform pressure helps to eliminate the tiny gaps between objects, thus forming a tighter connection. However, this simple fixing method cannot ensure complete sealing between the two. Over time, due to the relaxation and creep of the material, the seal fails, resulting in a gap being formed between the massage device and the bottom surface of the massage barrel. And as the use time of the massage barrel increases, this gap often gradually enlarges. The existence of the gap not only reduces the overall sealing performance of the massage barrel, but also leads to a serious hygiene problem: after the use of the massage barrel, part of the water will remain in these gaps. During the foot bath process, the foot sweat, dandruff, etc. of the user are easily attached to the surface of the massage barrel. Coupled with the long-term retention of water, it provides a breeding ground for bacteria and other microorganisms. After a long time of accumulation, these bacteria may be transmitted to the user through the foot bath process, causing cross-infection and posing a potential threat to the health of the user.
