Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a folding and rotating structure and a foot massager, belonging to the field of foot massagers. Background Technology
[0002] A foot massager is a device used for foot massage and treatment. It typically has functions such as vibration, rolling, pressing, and heat application. It can help relax foot muscles, relieve fatigue, improve blood circulation, and alleviate some common foot problems such as flat feet and plantar fasciitis.
[0003] Existing leg massagers consist of a base shell, a top shell, a massage component installed in the top shell to knead the calves, and a massage component installed in the base shell to massage the feet. Adding the massage component to the top shell increases its weight. The rotating parts between the base shell and the top shell of the leg massager are achieved through multiple metal connectors, such as metal brackets and metal shafts. These connectors can only be opened and closed simply. The structure limiting the rotation angle is complex, the rotation sensitivity is insufficient, and there is a delay in triggering the device to start or stop.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a folding and rotating structure and a foot massager with simple structure and high trigger sensitivity. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding and rotating structure and a foot massager with simple structure and high trigger sensitivity.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0007] A folding and rotating structure includes a first rotating component and a second rotating component, wherein the two sides of the first housing are rotatably connected to the second housing through the first rotating component and the second rotating component;
[0008] Hall elements and magnets, in several quantities, are distributed on the first rotating part or the second rotating part to trigger or disconnect the operation of the second housing;
[0009] The first rotating component and the second rotating component each include a first rotating disk, a second rotating disk, and a metal rotating shaft. The first rotating disk and the second rotating disk are respectively fixed on the first housing and the second housing, and the first rotating disk and the second rotating disk are rotatably connected by the metal rotating shaft to realize the second housing flipping to separate from or flipping to close on the first housing.
[0010] As a further improvement, a protrusion is provided on one end face of the first rotating disk, and a sliding part is provided on the second rotating disk at a position offset from the protrusion. The sliding part rotates and slides within the sliding range between the two ends of the protrusion.
[0011] As a further improvement, the first rotating member and the second rotating member also include a bracket, which consists of a horizontal part and a vertical part that are fixed perpendicularly to each other. The horizontal part is locked to the side of the bottom end of the first housing, and the vertical part is detachably fixed to the first rotating disk.
[0012] As a further improvement, the Hall element is disposed at the top of the vertical part of the bracket, and the Hall element corresponds to the lowest point of the sliding section. The magnet is mounted on the sliding part of the second rotating disk, so that the second housing is triggered to run when the magnet and the Hall element are on the same axis, or the second housing stops running when the magnet and the Hall element are staggered.
[0013] As a further improvement, the magnet is a multifaceted prism.
[0014] As a further improvement, a damping element is provided at the connection between the metal shaft and the first rotating disk, so that the metal shaft and the first rotating disk are interference-fitted.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the first and second rotating disks of this utility model have limiting and rotation functions. With the help of a metal rotating shaft made of metal material, the second housing can be quickly flipped and separated or closed on the first housing. Hall elements and magnets are also installed on the first or second rotating parts. When the magnets approach the Hall elements, the Hall effect occurs, generating a potential difference and voltage signal, which automatically triggers the operation of the second housing. It has the advantages of fast response and high precision, and achieves the effect of high trigger sensitivity of the second housing. Attached Figure Description

[0031] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] Reference Figures 1-9 As shown, a folding and rotating structure includes a first rotating member 10 and a second rotating member 20. The two sides of the first housing 30 are rotatably connected to the second housing 40 through the first rotating member 10 and the second rotating member 20.
[0034] Hall elements 50 and magnets 60, in several quantities, are distributed on the first rotating member 10 or the second rotating member 20 to trigger or disconnect the operation of the second housing 40;
[0035] This utility model can install Hall element 50 and magnet 60 on the first rotating part 10 or the second rotating part 20, or both the first rotating part 10 and the second rotating part 20 can be equipped with Hall element 50 and magnet 60. The position and number of Hall element 50 and magnet 60 can be selected according to actual needs.
[0036] The first rotating component 10 and the second rotating component 20 each include a first rotating disk 101, a second rotating disk 102, and a metal rotating shaft 103. The first rotating disk 101 and the second rotating disk 102 are respectively fixed on the first housing 30 and the second housing 40, and the first rotating disk 101 and the second rotating disk 102 are rotatably connected by the metal rotating shaft 103 to realize the second housing 40 flipping to separate from or flipping to cover the first housing 30.
[0037] In other words, the first rotating disk 101 and the second rotating disk 102 of this utility model have limiting and rotation functions. With the help of the metal rotating shaft 103 made of metal material, the second housing 40 can be flipped to separate from or flipped to close the first housing 30. Hall element 50 and magnet 60 are also installed on the first rotating component 10 or the second rotating component 20. When the magnet 60 is close to the Hall element 50, the Hall effect occurs, generating a potential difference and voltage signal, which automatically triggers the operation of the second housing 40. It has the advantages of fast response and high precision, and achieves the purpose of high trigger sensitivity.
[0038] Specifically as follows:
[0039] In this embodiment, a protrusion 111 is provided on one end face of the first rotating disk 101, and a sliding part 121 is provided on the second rotating disk 102 at a position offset from the protrusion 111. The sliding part 121 rotates and slides within the sliding interval 112 between the two ends of the protrusion 111.
[0040] In one specific embodiment, the protrusion 111 is a straight-line structure with a through hole in the middle, through which the metal shaft 103 passes;
[0041] In other words, after assembly, the sliding part 121 of the second rotating disk 102 can only rotate and slide within the sliding range 112 between the two ends of the protrusion 111. The limiting and rotation functions can be achieved by using the first rotating disk 101 and the second rotating disk 102.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first rotating member 10 and the second rotating member 20 further include a bracket 104. The bracket 104 is composed of a horizontal part 141 and a vertical part 142 that are fixed perpendicularly to each other. The horizontal part 141 is locked to the bottom side of the first housing 30, and the vertical part 142 is detachably fixed to the first rotating disk 101. The bracket 104 is used to increase the installation height of the first rotating disk 101 on the first housing 30, so as to avoid the shape and structure of the first housing 30 from affecting the normal use of the folding and rotating structure.
[0043] The vertical part 142 is detachably and fixedly connected to the first rotating disk 101 by means including but not limited to screw connection. That is, the first rotating disk 101 is locked to the vertical part 142 of the bracket 104 by a number of screws.
[0044] In this embodiment, the Hall element 50 is disposed at the top of the vertical portion 142 of the bracket 104, and the Hall element 50 corresponds to the lowest point of the sliding section 112. The magnet 60 is mounted on the sliding portion 121 of the second rotating disk 102, so that the magnet 60 and the Hall element 50 are on the same axis, triggering the operation of the second housing 40. Alternatively, the magnet 60 and the Hall element 50 are offset from each other, and the second housing 40 stops operating.
[0045] In this embodiment, a damping element 105 is provided at the connection between the metal shaft 103 and the first rotating disk 101, so that the metal shaft 103 and the first rotating disk 101 are interference-fitted.
[0046] The damping component 105 mentioned here includes, but is not limited to, rubber rings, silicone rings, etc. As long as it is elastic, it can be assembled so that the metal rotating shaft 103 and the first rotating disk 101 are interference-fitted.
[0047] More specifically, a third groove 112 is provided in the middle of the first rotating disk 101. The damping element 105 is housed in this third groove 112. When the first rotating disk 101 and the second rotating disk 102 are engaged, they are pressed together to generate damping, and there is no loosening sound when rotating.
[0048] In this embodiment, the metal rotating shaft 103 passes through the rear end of the second rotating disk 102 and is provided with a gasket 106 and a retaining ring 107 in sequence, so that after the second rotating disk 102 and the first rotating disk 101 cooperate with each other, the second rotating disk 102 is limited and fixed, preventing the second rotating disk 102 and the first rotating disk 101 from separating.
[0049] In this embodiment, the first rotating disk 101 and the metal shaft 103 are fixedly connected. More specifically, when the first rotating disk 101 is injection molded by injection molding, the metal shaft 103 is simultaneously placed into it and molded together, so that the first rotating disk 101 and the metal shaft 103 are fixedly connected and cannot be separated.
[0050] More specifically, the metal shaft 103 has an annular groove at both ends, so that one end of the metal shaft 103 fits into the retaining ring 107, so that the retaining ring 107 is just stuck in the annular groove, which serves as a limiting position.
[0051] In this embodiment, a metal plate 108 is provided between the second rotating disk 102 and the second housing 40. The metal plate 108 is locked to the side of the second housing 40. The second rotating disk 102 is locked to the metal plate 108 by screws. The metal plate 108 is used as the mounting medium for the second rotating disk 102 to be mounted on the second housing 40, so that the second rotating disk 102 can perfectly cooperate with the first rotating disk 101 and slide smoothly.
