[0021] The embodiment of the leg and foot massage device with the movable ankle function of the utility model Figure 1-7As shown: it includes a leg frame 1 and a foot frame 2, the foot frame 2 is connected to the lower end of the leg frame 1, the leg frame 1 is provided with a leg massage mechanism 3, which can be used for massaging the user's calf area, and the foot frame 2 is provided with a foot massage mechanism 4, which can be used for massaging the user's foot sole area, the foot frame 2 and the foot massage mechanism 4 are respectively arranged into two groups, corresponding to the two soles of the user, the foot frame 2 includes a swinging part 21, and the foot frame 2 is provided with a first driving mechanism 51 that can drive the swinging part 21 to swing up and down, the foot massage mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the swinging part 21, and can thus also be driven to swing up and down by the first driving mechanism 51, the foot massage mechanism 4 includes a receiving groove 411 for the sole of the foot to be placed and a first positioning module that can position the sole of the foot placed in the receiving groove 411, the sole of the foot placed in the receiving groove 411 is positioned by the first positioning module, and the up and down swinging of the swinging part 21 and the foot massage mechanism 4 can drive the sole of the foot to swing up and down, thereby realizing the function of activating the user's ankle joint.
[0022] The foot stand 2 also includes a supporting part 22 and a movable connecting part 23. The front and rear ends of the movable connecting part 22 are respectively connected to form a rotation connection. The swinging part 21, the supporting part 22, and the movable connecting part 23 are connected to form a three-link structure. The first driving mechanism 51 is an electric push rod. The two ends of the electric push rod are respectively connected to the supporting part 22 and the swinging part 21 to form a rotation connection. The driving end of the electric push rod can drive the swinging part 21 to realize up and down swinging movement when extending or retracting. This driving method has low noise and the swinging movement of the swinging part 21 is relatively stable. The characteristics of the electric push rod can also be used to keep the swinging part 21 at a required angle, thereby improving the physical therapy effect of the ankle joint.
[0023] The foot massage mechanism 4 includes a housing 41 and a massage module. The housing 41 is sleeved on the outside of the swing part 21 and a cavity 40 is formed between the housing 41 and the swing part 21. Figure 5 As shown, it is composed of several parts spliced together, which is convenient for installation. The massage module is arranged in the cavity 40, and the accommodating groove 411 is arranged at the upper end of the shell 41. The structure is simple and compact.
[0024] The housing 41 has an opening 412 at the bottom of the receiving groove 411. The massage module includes two massage wheels (431, 432) rotatably connected to the rocking portion 21 and a motor 433 for driving the massage wheels. The massage wheels are disposed at the opening 412 and can perform a rolling massage on the bottom of the foot when rotating. In other embodiments, only one massage wheel may be provided.
[0025] In this embodiment, the two massage wheels (431, 432) are respectively provided with massage bumps and scraping parts. The rotation axes of the two massage wheels are arranged in parallel. The two massage wheels are arranged along the front and rear ends of the swinging part 21. The motor 433 is arranged on the front side of the swinging part 21. The output shaft of the motor 433 is arranged rearward and is connected to one end of one of the massage wheels 431. The other ends of the two massage wheels are connected to each other by a belt and a pulley. Of course, other transmission methods can also be used, such as gears. The output power of the motor 433 directly drives one of the massage wheels 431 to rotate, and then drives the other massage wheel 432 to rotate through the other end of the massage wheel 431, thereby driving the two massage wheels to rotate synchronously. The motor 433 is arranged on the front side of the swinging part 21 to reasonably utilize the internal space of the cavity 40, making the overall structure of the foot massage mechanism 4 more compact. The two massage wheels provided with massage bumps and scraping parts can achieve acupuncture point stimulation and scraping massage on the bottom of the foot, improving the massage effect.
[0026] The first positioning module includes an airbag (not shown in the figure) arranged on the side wall of the accommodating groove 411 and capable of clamping and positioning the sole of the foot. The airbag is distributed on both sides of the sole of the foot. When the airbag is inflated, it can clamp the sole of the foot. This positioning method puts less pressure on the sole of the foot and is more comfortable. In addition, by alternately inflating and deflating the airbag, the airbag can also be used to achieve kneading and massage the sole of the foot.
[0027] In other embodiments, the first positioning module may also be a strap or a retaining wall disposed above the sole of the foot to prevent it from moving upward.
[0028] The support parts 22 of the two groups of tripods 2 are slidably connected with the leg frames 1. Specifically, the sliding connection can be achieved by setting a slide rail, a slide groove or a slide sleeve between the support part 22 and the leg frame 1. A second driving mechanism 52 is set between the support part 22 of each group of tripods 2 and the leg frame 1, which can drive it to move up and down relative to the leg frame 1. The second driving mechanism 52 can adopt an electric push rod. The second driving mechanism 52 can drive the tripod 2 to move up and down relative to the leg frame 1, and can adjust the relative distance between the tripod 2 and the leg frame 1. The up and down movement of each group of tripods 2 is independent, which can improve the adaptation effect for people with different leg lengths, and also has a better adaptation effect for people with different leg lengths.
[0029] The leg massage mechanism 3 includes a shell 31, which has two second receiving grooves 311 for the user's two calves to be placed respectively. The leg massage mechanism 3 also includes a second positioning module that can position the calf placed in the second receiving groove 311. When the ankle joint is moved, the calf can be fixed to avoid displacement of the calf, which can further improve the physical therapy effect. The second positioning module includes air bags (not shown in the figure) arranged at two opposite side walls of the second receiving groove 311. The air bags can clamp the calf when inflated. This positioning method puts less pressure on the calf and is more comfortable. In addition, by cooperating with the second driving mechanism, a "stretching" massage effect on the user's legs can also be achieved.
[0030] The above embodiment is only one preferred embodiment of the present invention. Common changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
