[0029] Depend on Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 It is understood that the massage device of this utility model is applied to a head-mounted device, defining the side of the massage device closer to the user's head as the inner side and the side farther from the user's head as the outer side. The massage device includes:
[0030] The support structure 10 has a receiving cavity 11 and a through hole 12 connecting the inside of the receiving cavity 11 and the inside of the support structure 10.
[0031] The rotating structure is rotatably installed inside the accommodating cavity 11, and the rotation axis of the rotating structure points from the inside of the accommodating cavity 11 to the inside of the supporting structure 10;
[0032] The power mechanism is used to drive the rotating structure to rotate. Typically, the power mechanism is an electric motor 30, but it can also be a hydraulic motor.
[0033] Mounting shaft 20 is fixed to the rotating structure and extends to the through hole 12, with a gap between mounting shaft 20 and the rotation axis of the rotating structure;
[0034] And a massage head 40, which is located inside the support structure 10 and fixed to the mounting shaft 20.
[0035] Specifically, the head-mounted device includes the device body and the headband connected to the device body. The head-mounted device is worn on the user's head through the headband, and the massage device is set in the headband.
[0036] When a user experiences dizziness, vertigo, or other head discomfort while wearing the head-mounted device, the power mechanism is activated. This mechanism drives the rotating structure to rotate. Because there is a gap between the mounting shaft 20 and the rotation axis of the rotating structure, the rotating structure causes the mounting shaft 20 to rotate in a circular trajectory around the rotation axis of the rotating structure. The massage head 40 rotates synchronously with the mounting shaft 20, providing a massage to the user's head and relieving discomfort. This eliminates the need to remove the head-mounted device from the user's head. Typically, the massage head 40 massages the user's temples. The massage head 40 of this invention provides a massage to the user's head when it rotates, relieving discomfort without requiring the head-mounted device to be removed. This solves the problem of head discomfort caused by prolonged use of head-mounted devices and improves the wearing experience.
[0037] In this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the rotating structure includes a gear ring 51 arranged around the through hole 12 and rotatably mounted inside the accommodating cavity 11. The gear ring 51 has inner drive teeth on its inner ring side and outer drive teeth on its outer ring side. The mounting shaft 20 passes through the gear ring 51 and the through hole 12, and there is a gap between the mounting shaft 20 and the rotation axis of the gear ring 51. A transmission gear 52 is rotatably mounted inside the accommodating cavity 11. The transmission gear 52 meshes with the outer drive teeth of the gear ring 51 and is connected to the power mechanism. A gear is also arranged inside the gear ring 51 and rotates within the gear ring 51. The transmission includes a planetary gear 53 for meshing transmission, which is fixed to the mounting shaft 20; and a rocker arm 54, the first end of which is rotatably mounted inside the accommodating cavity 11 and the rotation axis of the first end of the rocker arm 54 is coaxial with the gear ring 51. The second end of the rocker arm 54 is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft 20, or the second end of the rocker arm 54 is rotatably connected to the mounting shaft 20. The rotation axis of the second end of the rocker arm 54 is parallel to the rotation axis of the gear ring 51. Typically, the rocker arm 54 is arranged radially along the gear ring 51.
