[0002] Existing neck and shoulder massagers generally have both heating and massage functions, such as the neck and shoulder massager mechanism disclosed in patent publication number CN106726392A. In such massage devices, the heating and massage components are generally installed separately, mainly because the two functions are performed by different components.

[0003] As physical therapy evolves, massagers are gradually introducing new treatment methods, such as microwaves, magnetic therapy, and infrared light therapy. These new functions are also implemented using new components, which requires rewiring and installing new actuators in the massage head. Infrared light therapy, in particular, uses separate components for heating and emitting light, each mounted and fixed within the housing. This design is relatively costly, cumbersome, and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The massage head shown includes a light-transmitting shell 10, a light guide frame 20 and a flexible light-emitting heating element 30; the light guide frame 20 is installed in the light-transmitting shell 10; the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 can be detachably mounted on the light guide frame 20; the light guide frame 20 can press the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 against the light-transmitting shell 10.

[0029] In the present application, the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 is an integrated structure of a flexible circuit board. Such a structural design is conducive to manufacturing and installation, and avoids wiring in the later stage. In the present application, the massage head of course also includes a massage vibration mechanism, and other structures, but these structures are not the focus of protection of this application, so the description is omitted. For details, please refer to the shoulder and neck massager movement disclosed in the patent with publication number CN106726392A, and also refer to the structure in CN114053117A-Neck Massager. This application will not describe in detail here. In addition, in the above structure, the light-transmitting shell 10 includes two half shells that can be buckled together. In this application, one half shell has been omitted. The purpose is to facilitate reference to the internal structure. At the same time, the omitted half shell has no technical connection with this application and is not a focus of protection.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 3As shown, in order to facilitate installation and improve the compactness of the structure, the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 includes a connecting portion 31, a heating portion 32 and a light-emitting portion 33. The heating portion 32 and the light-emitting portion 33 are provided at both ends of the connecting portion 31. The light guide frame 20 can press the heating portion 32 against the light-transmitting shell 10, and the light-emitting portion 33 can be moved through the light guide frame 20 and folded back to be installed on the other side of the light guide frame 20. Among them, the light-emitting portion 33 is actually obtained by extending and folding back the part of the middle groove of the connecting portion 31, and such a design is conducive to later manufacturing. In addition, since the light-emitting portion 33 can move through the light guide frame 20 and folded back to be installed on one side of the light guide frame 20, such a design can firmly restrict the connecting portion 31 and the heating portion 32 on the other side of the light guide frame 20, and this design can achieve the convenience of installation to the greatest extent. The connecting portion 31 in this application is a flexible circuit board, and the heating portion 32 in this embodiment is a heating wire structure, which can be an extension of the connecting portion 31. Similarly, the light-emitting portion 33 is also an extension of the connecting portion 31, and a light-emitting element is provided in this area. For example, in one embodiment of the present application, a lamp bead 34 is provided on the side of the light-emitting portion 33 close to the heating portion 32. It should be noted that in the above embodiment, when the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 is not a flexible circuit board, in order to facilitate installation, the connecting portion 31 can be deformed and bent so that it can adapt to the inner wall of the light-transmitting shell 10 as a whole.

[0031] In the aforementioned improved solution, to facilitate the confinement of the light-emitting portion 33 on the light guide frame 20 and improve installation convenience, a clamping head 21 is provided on the corresponding side of the light guide frame 20. The clamping head 21 can clamp the light-emitting portion 33 to the corresponding side of the light guide frame 20. In fact, two clamping heads 21 are provided, forming a mounting space for the light-emitting portion 33 between them. At the same time, the protruding portions of the clamping heads 21 clamp the two sides of the light-emitting portion 33 to the corresponding side of the light guide frame 20.

[0032] In the above-mentioned improvement scheme, a movable perforation 22 is provided on the light guide frame 20, and the light-emitting portion 33 is movable through the movable perforation 22. In fact, a number of hollow areas are provided on the light guide frame 20. Such a design can reduce the overall quality and help reduce manufacturing costs. In addition, in the present application, a large hollow hole is required to be opened in the corresponding area of ​​the light guide frame 20 at the end of the light-emitting portion 33. The main purpose is to ensure that the light-emitting portion 33 is completely located in the hollow hole after it is installed and fixed. In this way, when the light-emitting portion 33 is working, the light guide frame 20 can absorb and transmit the light of the light bead 34.

[0033] In order to ensure the overall installation effect, the light guide frame 20 can confine the connecting portion 31 between the light guide frame 20 and the inner wall of the light-transmitting housing 10 .

[0034] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3In order to install and fix the light guide frame 20, a positioning post 11 is provided on the light-transmitting housing 10, and a clearance hole 35 for avoiding the positioning post 11 is provided on the connecting portion 31. The light guide frame 20 is movably mounted on the positioning post 11. In order to prevent the light guide frame 20 from rotating around the positioning post 11, in one embodiment of the present application, limiting protrusions or limiting plates are provided on any opposite sides of the positioning post 11, which can effectively limit the movement of the light guide frame 20. In fact, the formation of the clearance hole 35 is mainly formed by the folding back of the light-emitting portion 33. It should be noted that other fastening structures can also be provided on the positioning post 11 to limit and fix the light guide frame 20 on the positioning post 11.

[0035] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 To facilitate heat transfer from the heating element 32 and improve heat conduction, the light-transmitting housing 10 is provided with heat-conducting platforms 12 in corresponding areas at both ends of the light guide frame 20. The light guide frame 20 presses the heating element 32 against the heat-conducting platforms 12. Furthermore, in the aforementioned embodiment, the area where the light guide frame 20 and the heating element 32 meet forms a frame structure. This design primarily serves to press the edges of the heating element 32 against the heat-conducting platforms 12, while the hollowed-out area provides space for the heating element 32 to expand and contract as it heats up.

[0036] In some possible implementations, in order to better limit the light guide frame 20 and ensure the stability of the entire structure, limiting columns 13 are provided on both sides of the transparent shell 10 at both ends of the light guide frame 20, and a gap is provided on the light guide frame 20 to avoid the limiting columns 13.

[0037] This massage head adopts a translucent shell 10 as the outer shell. This design is conducive to the light source emitted by the internal flexible light-emitting heating element 30 to pass through and act on the user's body; the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 is pressed against the translucent shell 10 using the light guide frame 20, which can not only realize the installation and fixation of the flexible light-emitting heating element 30, but also use the light guide frame 20 to conduct the light emitted by the flexible light-emitting heating element 30, and also can realize the contact between the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 and the translucent shell 10, which is conducive to the flexible light-emitting heating element 30 to directly transfer heat to the translucent shell 10, achieving three goals at one stroke.

[0038] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention shall be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
