Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of massager technology, specifically relating to a manual and electric integrated massager. Background Technology

[0002] With the growing popularity of healthy living concepts, massagers, as effective auxiliary tools for relieving physical fatigue, promoting blood circulation, and enhancing bodily functions, are experiencing continuous market demand growth. However, from the perspective of current technological development, massagers on the market still have certain limitations.

[0003] Most massagers on the market are divided into two main categories: manual and electric. Manual massagers rely on manual operation by the user. While they can provide a certain degree of massage relaxation, they often lack a diverse massage experience and are difficult to use for extended periods. Electric massagers, on the other hand, have significantly improved in automation and can simulate various massage techniques, but they are limited to electric mode and cannot provide manual massage.

[0004] To address these issues, some manufacturers have begun designing massagers with both manual and electric modes to offer a richer and more diverse massage experience. However, these designs often require users to disassemble and reassemble the main components of the massager to switch between different modes. This process is not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but frequent disassembly and reassembly may also reduce the stability and durability of the device. Furthermore, due to their large size or modular design, they are inconvenient to store.

[0005] Therefore, based on some of the situations in the prior art described above, this application has made further designs and improvements. Utility Model Content

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 6 A manual / electric integrated massager includes a base with a control unit 100 in the center. Placement slots are provided on both sides of the control unit 100, and a first massage roller assembly 200 and a second massage roller assembly 210 are respectively installed in the two sets of placement slots. A drive motor 310 is installed within the control unit 100. The drive motor 310 is connected to a clutch transmission assembly 300. A first transmission gear set 230 connected to the first massage roller assembly 200 and a second transmission gear set 240 connected to the second massage roller assembly 210 are respectively connected to both sides of the clutch transmission assembly 300. In manual mode, the clutch transmission assembly 300 disconnects the power connection between the drive motor 310 and the first and second transmission gear sets 230 and 240. In electric mode, the clutch transmission assembly 300 connects the drive motor 310 to the first and second transmission gear sets 230 and 240.

[0032] In this application, the clutch transmission assembly 300 includes a mode switching wheel 320, a mode switching switch 330, and a transmission component 340. The first transmission gear set 230 includes a first transmission shaft 250, and the second transmission gear set 240 includes a second transmission shaft 251. The transmission component 340 is provided with a drive wheel 341, an intermediate transmission wheel 342, and a square shaft 343. The drive wheel 341 is connected to a drive motor 310, the intermediate transmission wheel 342 is meshed with the mode switching wheel 320, and the mode switching wheel 320 is meshed with the first transmission gear set 230. The second transmission shaft 251 is provided with a mating groove 252, and the square shaft 343 is slidably assembled with the mating groove 252. The mode switching switch is connected to the transmission component 340. When switching to manual mode, the mode switching switch drives the transmission component 340 to move axially towards the second transmission gear set 240, causing the intermediate transmission wheel 342 and the mode switching wheel 322 to disengage. When switching to electric mode, the mode switching switch drives the transmission component 340 to move axially toward the first transmission gear set 230, so that the intermediate transmission wheel 342 and the mode switching wheel 320 are engaged.

[0033] Furthermore, the drive wheel 341 is a worm gear, and the drive motor 310 is connected to a worm 311, which meshes with the drive wheel 341. The advantage of this design is that when switching to electric mode, the first massage roller group 200 and the second massage roller group 210 cannot be manually rotated, which helps avoid affecting the service life of the drive motor 310 due to passive reversal. The mode switching switch 330 includes a switching motor 331, which is connected to a lever 332. The transmission component 340 is provided with an annular groove 344, and the lever 332 extends into the annular groove 344. This design has a simple structure and facilitates mode switching.

[0034] In this application, both the first massage roller group 200 and the second massage roller group 210 include a plurality of massage roller bodies 220. Both the first transmission gear group 230 and the second transmission gear group 240 include a plurality of massage transmission wheels 253 and a plurality of transition transmission wheels 254. The number of massage transmission wheels 253 corresponds to the number of massage roller bodies 220, and the massage transmission wheels 253 are coaxially assembled with the massage roller bodies 220. The transition transmission wheels 254 are assembled between the massage transmission wheels 253. One set of transition transmission wheels 254 in the first transmission gear group 230 is a switching transmission wheel 255, which meshes with the mode switching wheel 320. The first transmission shaft 250 is coaxially assembled with one set of massage roller bodies 220 in the first transmission gear group 230, and the second transmission shaft 251 is coaxially assembled with one set of massage roller bodies 220 in the second transmission gear group 240. The design of the transition drive wheel 254 ensures that all massage rollers 220 rotate in the same direction, preventing the skin from getting stuck in the gaps between the massage rollers 220 during massage.

[0035] Furthermore, the massage roller body 220 is evenly distributed with massage protrusions 221, and grooves 222 are formed between the massage protrusions 221 along the axial side generatrix of the massage roller body 220 and the circumferential ring line of the massage roller body 220. The distribution of these grooves 222 is designed for easy cleaning. The massage roller body 220 is spindle-shaped, which can better conform to the curves of the human body during massage, enhance the coverage and adaptability of the massage, and improve the comfort and efficiency of use.

[0036] Furthermore, the base also includes two sets of assembly parts 110, located on both sides of the control unit 100, and connected to the control unit 100 by connecting rods 120. The assembly parts 110, control unit 100, and connecting rods 120 cooperate to form a bottom-through placement groove. This design facilitates cleaning of the area below the massage roller body 220 and significantly reduces dust accumulation at the bottom of the placement groove. The control unit 100 is equipped with a waterproof display panel 101, ensuring that even in humid environments or during cleaning, water damage to electronic components is prevented, guaranteeing user safety and long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0037] To enhance the personalization and comfort of the massage experience, the control unit 100 in this application also integrates an intelligent control system that can connect to a smartphone application via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Users can adjust the massage intensity, mode, and duration via a dedicated app, and even download or customize massage programs according to personal preferences, achieving a highly personalized massage experience. The app also includes a built-in health data analysis function, providing massage effect assessments and health improvement suggestions based on user habits and feedback.

[0038] To ensure stability and quiet operation over long periods, all transmission components in this application are made of high-quality wear-resistant materials and undergo precision machining to ensure accurate gear meshing and reduce operating noise. Additionally, sound-absorbing and vibration-damping pads are added inside the base to effectively absorb vibrations during operation.

[0039] The scope of protection of this utility model includes, but is not limited to, the above embodiments. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the claims. Any substitutions, modifications, or improvements to this technology that are easily conceived by those skilled in the art shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
