Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of foot bath technology, specifically to a detachable rotating disc structure for a foot bath. Background Technology

[0002] The statements herein provide only background information related to this invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] As people's living standards improve, foot baths with massage functions have been widely accepted in the market. However, after using such foot baths, some skin flakes from the feet can easily accumulate in the gaps between the massage beads on the massage disc. If not cleaned regularly, bacteria can easily grow, and family members are very likely to cross-infect each other with other infectious diseases such as athlete's foot and onychomycosis.

[0004] However, disassembling the massage disc from the bottom of the foot bath for cleaning is inconvenient. Furthermore, the drive gear on the massage disc (the massage disc has a gear set used to transmit power to the massage beads, and this gear set includes a drive gear that works with the drive shaft on the motor at the bottom of the foot bath to transmit the motor's power to the gear set) is difficult to align with the drive shaft at the bottom of the foot bath during installation. This makes it inconvenient for consumers to install the massage disc after cleaning. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a detachable rotating disc structure for a foot bath that makes it easy for consumers to assemble and disassemble the massage disc.

The connecting shaft is rotatably mounted on the rotary buckle assembly and can move up and down within the rotary buckle assembly. A limit member is provided at the end of the corresponding connecting shaft of the rotary buckle assembly. When the connecting shaft moves upward within the rotary buckle assembly, it can contact the limit member, causing the connecting shaft to rotate together with the rotary buckle assembly. The connecting shaft can also move downward relative to the rotary buckle assembly to disengage from the limit member, allowing the connecting shaft to rotate relative to the rotary buckle assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, there is a gap between the knob and the bracket buckle, one end of the connecting shaft passes through the bracket buckle into the gap, a limiting groove is formed at one end of the connecting shaft in the gap, and a limiting member is set at the bottom of the knob at a position corresponding to the gap. The limiting member limits the relative position of the connecting shaft and the knob by inserting into the limiting groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiting groove is a slot or cross groove formed at the end of the connecting shaft, and the limiting member is a stop rib fixed to the bottom of the knob. When the connecting shaft moves upward, one end of the stop rib is inserted into the limiting groove, and when the connecting shaft moves downward, one end of the stop rib is removed from the limiting groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the top of the connecting shaft is provided with a protrusion facing the side to prevent the connecting shaft from disengaging from the bracket buckle.

[0014] Furthermore, the direction in which the bracket screws into the housing latch is consistent with the rotation direction of the drive shaft during operation.

[0015] Furthermore, a first positioning bone is provided at the position of the corresponding screw fastener assembly on the turntable body, and a second positioning bone is provided on the screw fastener assembly. The first positioning bone is used to limit the rotation range of the second positioning bone.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in:

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0029] See Figures 1 to 7 .

[0030] This utility model discloses a detachable rotating disc structure for a foot bath, including:

[0031] Foot bath tub 1;

[0032] The turntable body 2 is installed at the bottom inside the barrel 1, and massage beads for massage and gear set for transmitting power to the massage beads are provided on it.

[0033] The rotary buckle assembly 3 is rotatably mounted on the turntable body 2, including a knob 31 and a bracket buckle 32 connected together. The turntable body 2 is located between the knob 31 and the bracket buckle 32. A housing buckle 11 is provided at the bottom of the barrel body 1 at the position corresponding to the rotary buckle assembly 3. The bracket buckle 32 can rotate under the drive of the knob 31 and be fastened on the housing buckle 11, thereby fixing the turntable body 2 inside the barrel body 1.

[0034] The drive gear 4 has a mounting hole 41 at its bottom for fitting onto the drive shaft 5 located at the bottom of the barrel 1. A connecting shaft 42 is fixedly mounted on the top of the drive gear 4. The connecting shaft 42 is rotatably mounted on the snap fastener assembly 3 and can move upward within the snap fastener assembly 3 and downward under the action of gravity. A limiting member 33 is provided at the end of the corresponding connecting shaft 42 in the snap fastener assembly 3. When the connecting shaft 42 moves upward within the snap fastener assembly 3, it can contact the limiting member 33, causing the connecting shaft 42 to rotate together with the snap fastener assembly 3. Under the action of gravity, the connecting shaft 42 can move downward relative to the snap fastener assembly 3 and disengage from the limiting member 33, allowing the connecting shaft 42 to rotate relative to the snap fastener assembly 3.

[0035] In practice, when disassembling and assembling the massage disc body 2, the knob 31 is rotated. The knob 31 rotates with the bracket buckle 32 and engages with the housing buckle 11 at the bottom of the barrel 1, thus assembling and disassembling the disc body 2. At the same time, when installing the disc body 2, if the drive gear 4 is not aligned with the drive shaft 5 at the bottom of the barrel 1, the drive shaft 5 will push the drive gear 4 upward (passively push the drive gear 4). At this time, the connecting shaft 42 moves upward in the buckle assembly 3 and can contact the limiting member 33. The operator can rotate the knob 31 to drive the connecting shaft 42 to rotate until the mounting hole 41 at the bottom of the drive gear 4 is aligned with the drive shaft 5. Then, under the action of gravity, it falls and fits onto the drive shaft 5. At this time, the connecting shaft 42 is released from the limiting of the buckle assembly 3 and can rotate freely.

[0036] The design of the rotary buckle assembly 3 in this utility model not only makes it easy for consumers to disassemble and assemble the turntable body 2, but also facilitates the alignment of the drive gear 4 with the transmission shaft 5 by setting the drive gear 4 on the rotary buckle assembly 3, making it convenient for consumers to use.

[0037] It should be noted that the specific locking mechanism and the housing latch 11 are common fastening structures in the prior art, therefore their specific structure will not be described in detail here. Please refer to the appendix of the instruction manual. Figures 1 to 6 The structure shown.

[0038] It is conceivable that the bottom of the knob 31 presses against the top of the turntable body 2 and slides in cooperation with the top of the turntable body 2. In this way, after the bracket buckle 32 is engaged with the shell buckle 11 at the bottom of the barrel 1, the turntable body 2 cannot be separated from the barrel 1 under the pressure of the knob 31.

[0039] In one embodiment, there is a gap 34 between the knob 31 and the bracket buckle 32. One end of the connecting shaft 42 passes through the bracket buckle 32 into the gap 34. The top of the connecting shaft 42 is provided with a protrusion 43 protruding to the side to prevent the connecting shaft 42 from disengaging from the bracket buckle 32. A limiting groove 44 is formed at one end of the connecting shaft 42 located in the gap 34. The limiting member 33 is provided at the bottom of the knob 31 corresponding to the gap 34. The limiting member 33 limits the relative position of the connecting shaft 42 and the knob 31 by inserting into the limiting groove 44.

[0040] Specifically, the limiting groove 44 is a slot or cross groove opened at the end of the connecting shaft 42, and the limiting member 33 is a stop rib fixed to the bottom of the knob 31. When the connecting shaft 42 moves upward, one end of the stop rib is inserted into the limiting groove 44, and when the connecting shaft 42 moves downward, one end of the stop rib is removed from the limiting groove 44.

[0041] Preferably, the retaining bar is a straight retaining bar or a cross retaining bar that corresponds to a straight groove or a cross groove.

[0042] Of course, an elastic element can also be provided within the gap 34. This elastic element is positioned between the knob 31 and the connecting shaft 42, and a contact component is provided on one side of the connecting shaft 42 corresponding to the elastic element. The elastic element pushes the connecting shaft 42 to separate from the retaining rib through the contact component. The contact component can be a plate that slides with the connecting shaft 42, or it can be a rotating disk; the elastic element can be a spring.

[0043] In one embodiment, the direction in which the bracket buckle 32 screws into the housing buckle 11 is consistent with the rotation direction of the drive shaft 5 during operation. This design prevents the drive gear 4 from driving the buckle assembly 3 to rotate in the opposite direction after prolonged operation.

[0044] In one embodiment, a first positioning bone 21 is provided at the position of the corresponding screw fastener assembly 3 on the turntable body 2, and a second positioning bone 35 is provided on the screw fastener assembly 3. The first positioning bone 21 is used to limit the rotation range of the second positioning bone 35. This design can limit the rotation angle of the knob 31 and the bracket screw fastener 32, ensuring that the bracket screw fastener 32 can be properly fastened on the housing fastener 11.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0046] It should be noted that if the utility model embodiment involves directional indicators (such as up and down), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0047] Furthermore, the meaning of "and / or" throughout the text includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or a solution that simultaneously satisfies A and B. Additionally, if the utility model embodiments involve descriptions of "first," "second," etc., these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Furthermore, "multiple" refers to two or more. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the utility model.
