[0017] An embodiment of the physiotherapy bed with a lumbar support mechanism of this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-5 As shown, the bed includes a bed frame 1, a bed board 2 on the upper part of the bed frame 1, a guide rail 31 on the bed frame 1, and a massage mechanism 32 that can move along the guide rail 31. The massage mechanism 32 can move towards the head and foot of the bed. A through groove 20 is provided on the bed board 2, which is set along the travel path of the massage mechanism 32, allowing for therapeutic massage of different positions on the back of the user's body. A lumbar support mechanism 4 is provided on the bed frame 1, located below the through groove 20. The lumbar support mechanism 4 includes a lumbar support frame 41, a swing frame 42, and an electric push rod 43. There are two swing frames 42. The upper ends of the two swing frames 42 are pivotally connected to both ends of the lumbar support frame 41, and the lower ends of the two swing frames 42 are pivotally connected to the bed frame 1. One end of the electric push rod 43 is pivotally connected to one of the swing frames 42 or to one end of the lumbar support frame 41, and the other end of the electric push rod 43 is pivotally connected to the bed frame 1. When the electric push rod 43 is in telescopic motion, it can directly push or indirectly push the lumbar support frame 41 to move up and down along an arc-shaped trajectory through the swing frames 42. When the massage mechanism 32 finishes working and moves back to the end of the through groove 20 corresponding to the head of the bed (e.g. Figure 1 (As shown in the diagram), the electric push rod 43 extends, driving the lumbar support 41 to rise to the through groove 20 (i.e., the other end of the through groove 20). When the lumbar support 41 rises, it is inside the through groove 20. The lumbar support 41 in the rising state can support the user's waist and improve the comfort of lying down to rest. Before the massage mechanism 32 works, the electric push rod 43 shortens, driving the lumbar support 41 to fall below the through groove 20, leaving space for the massage mechanism 32 to move and avoiding interference between the movement of the lumbar support 41 and the massage mechanism 32.

[0018] The swing frame 42 includes two support rods 421 and a first crossbar 422 connecting and fixing the two support rods 421. The two support rods 421 are connected and fixed together by the first crossbar 422, which improves the structural strength of the swing frame 42, improves the synchronicity of the swing of the two support rods 421, and makes the force on both sides of the waist support 41 more even. The first crossbar 422 is a hollow tubular structure, and the support rods 421 are plate-like structures. This ensures the structural strength of the swing frame 42 while reducing the weight, and also shortens the lateral width of the swing frame 42, making the structure more compact.

[0019] The support rod 421 is in an arc shape, and the concave part of the support rod 421 is in a clearance fit with the massage core 32. When the swing frame 42 swings to a position corresponding to the raised state of the waist support frame 41, the concave part of the support rod 421 of the swing frame 42 close to the position of the massage core 32 can be in a clearance fit with the massage core 32, so that interference between the massage core 32 and the swing frame 42 is avoided, and in particular, interference between the first horizontal rod 422 of the swing frame 42 and the massage core 32 is prevented, thereby improving the swing range of the swing frame 42 and making the internal structure of the bed frame 1 more compact.

[0020] The lower end of the support rod 421 is arranged towards the head direction, and the upper end of the support rod 421 is arranged towards the foot direction, the electric push rod 43 is arranged at the foot, and the two ends of the electric push rod 43 are arranged towards the head and foot directions respectively, the electric push rod 43 can drive the upper end of the support rod 421 to swing upwards and towards the head direction when the electric push rod 43 is extended, and the electric push rod 43 can drive the upper end of the support rod 421 to swing downwards and towards the foot direction when the electric push rod 43 is retracted, the electric push rod 43 is arranged at the foot far away from the massage core 32, and interference does not occur, and this structural layout makes the internal structure of the bed frame 1 more compact.

[0021] The waist support frame 41 comprises vertical rods 411 arranged along the two end directions and at least two second horizontal rods 412 connected between the vertical rods 411, and the vertical rods 411 and the second horizontal rods 412 are both in a hollow tubular structure, so that the weight of the waist support frame 41 is reduced under the premise of ensuring the structural strength of the waist support frame 41, and in other embodiments, the upper part of the waist support frame 41 can also be covered with a baffle or a cushion to further improve the comfort when being contacted and supported.

[0022] The above embodiments are only preferred specific embodiments of the present application, and common changes and replacements made by those skilled in the art within the technical scheme of the present application are also included in the protection scope of the present application.
