[0001] This application relates to the technical field of health care products, and more particularly to a massager. Background Technology

[0002] A massager is a health care product that achieves a relaxing effect by physically stimulating parts of the body such as the eyes, hands, and feet.

[0003] In related technologies, massagers typically consist of a casing and electronic components, including a vibration module, battery module, control module, and touch panel. The casing is usually made of materials such as metal or plastic, encasing the various electronic components.

[0004] However, due to factors such as molding process and assembly requirements, the outer shell of a massager generally adopts an assembly structure, that is, the outer shell is composed of multiple parts assembled and spliced ​​together. This results in assembly gaps on the surface of the outer shell, which not only affects the appearance integrity of the outer shell and makes it easy for dirt and bacteria to remain, but some sharp assembly gaps can also easily scratch human skin, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a massager, which includes a massager body, a protective cover, and a plug. The protective cover is integrally molded from an elastic material, and an inner cavity is formed inside the protective cover. An opening communicating with the inner cavity is provided on the outer wall of the protective cover. The opening allows the massager body to be inserted into the inner cavity so that the protective cover covers the outer wall of the massager body. The plug is inserted into the opening to seal the inner cavity. The plug and the protective cover form a transition fit or an interference fit.

[0006] In some embodiments, the internal shape of the cavity is adapted to the shape of the massager body so that the massager body is completely housed within the cavity.

[0007] In some embodiments, a spherical portion is provided at the end of the massager body away from the opening.

[0008] In some embodiments, the side wall of the massager body is provided with a functional component, and the outer wall of the protective cover is provided with a functional part, the position of the functional part corresponding to the position of the functional component.

[0009] In some embodiments, the functional element includes a touch button, and the functional part protrudes from the outer wall of the protective cover to form friction ridges.

[0010] In some embodiments, the functional component includes a touch button, the functional part is recessed from the inner wall of the protective sleeve to form a clearance hole, the touch button is received in the clearance hole, and the inner wall of the clearance hole protrudes to form a mating protrusion that mates with the touch button.

[0026] In the description of the embodiments of this application, when an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an element that is centrally located. When an element is considered to be "disposed" on another element, it can be directly disposed on the other element or there may be an element that is centrally located.

[0027] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0029] In related technologies, massagers typically include a housing structure and electronic components. These electronic components include a control board, a vibration motor, and a power supply, all housed within the housing structure. In actual use, the user can activate the massager, causing the vibration motor to vibrate a specific part of the housing structure. The user can then place that part against their body to achieve physical stimulation and a relaxing massage effect.

[0030] However, the shell structure is usually a rigid structure made of plastic. Due to issues such as injection molding and assembly during production, the outer wall of the shell structure will have uneven structures such as assembly gaps and screw holes. This not only limits the appearance and results in poor waterproof performance, but also makes it easy for users to scratch their skin and affect the massage comfort. In addition, it is easy for dirt and bacteria to remain, making cleaning more troublesome and affecting the user experience.

[0031] Therefore, this application provides a massager to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram from another perspective of the first embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 3 An exploded view of the first embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 4 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the first embodiment of the massager provided in this application.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the massager includes a massager body 10, a protective sleeve 20, and a plug 30. The protective sleeve 20 is integrally molded from an elastic material, with a smooth outer wall and an inner cavity 21 formed inside. The outer wall of the protective sleeve 20 has an opening 22 communicating with the inner cavity 21. The plug 30 is disposed at the opening 22 of the protective sleeve 20, and a transition fit or interference fit is formed between the plug 30 and the protective sleeve 20.

[0034] The opening 22 allows the massager body 10 to be inserted into the inner cavity 21 so that the protective cover 20 covers the outer wall of the massager body 10. The plug 30 is inserted into the opening 22 to seal the inner cavity 21, preventing contaminants from the outside of the protective cover 20 from entering the inner cavity 21 through the opening 22.

[0035] It is understandable that by covering the massager body 10 with the protective case 20, uneven structures such as assembly gaps and screw holes on the outer surface of the massager body 10 can be covered. This not only ensures the overall appearance of the massager and improves the water resistance of the entire massager, but also reduces the possibility of the massager scratching sensitive skin during use. At the same time, it reduces the accumulation of dirt and bacteria, making cleaning easier. Furthermore, the protective case 20 protects the massager body 10, better protecting the internal electronic components in the event of a drop, and its outer surface is more wear-resistant and less prone to damage.

[0036] In one embodiment, the massager body 10 includes a housing 13 and electronic components, wherein the electronic components are disposed within the housing 13. Exemplarily, the housing 13 is generally elongated, with a charging end 11 and a massage end 12 formed at both ends. The housing 13 has a circular cross-section, and its outer diameter matches the inner diameter of the inner cavity 21. The housing 13 can be constructed by assembling and bolting two parts together, and the parts constituting the housing 13 can be made of rigid materials such as plastic or metal. The massage end 12 of the housing 13 is provided with a spherical portion 121, which is hemispherical, and its inner diameter gradually decreases away from the charging end 11. It is understood that when the housing 13 is housed within the inner cavity 21, the charging end 11 of the housing 13 faces the opening 22, and the massage end 12 of the housing 13 faces away from the opening 22.

[0037] The electronic components include a circuit board 14, a power supply, a charging port 15, a massage motor 16, and a functional component 17. The circuit board 14, power supply, charging port 15, massage motor 16, and functional component 17 are all fixed within the housing 13, and are electrically connected to the circuit board 14. For example, the charging port 15 can be a contact-type charging port, exposed at the charging end 11 of the housing 13. A blocking block 30 has a through hole corresponding to the charging port 15, allowing the charging port 15 to partially protrude from the blocking block 30 through the through hole. The charging port 15 can connect to an external power supply to charge the device. The massage motor 16 can be a vibration motor, located inside the massage end 12 of the housing 13. The massage motor 16 is used to achieve a massage effect through vibration.

[0038] Functional component 17 is disposed in the middle of housing 13, and part of functional component 17 is exposed on the side wall of housing 13. Functional component 17 is used to perform corresponding functions, and its functions can be configured according to actual needs. In this embodiment, functional component 17 includes a touch button 171. Touch button 171 is used to output an electrical signal to circuit board 14 in response to user pressing, realizing basic control operations of the massager by the user, such as starting / stopping the massager, switching the vibration frequency of the massager, etc.

[0039] In one embodiment, the protective cover 20 is integrally molded from an elastic material such as silicone or rubber. The internal shape of the inner cavity 21 of the protective cover 20 is adapted to the shape of the massager body 10 so that the massager body 10 is completely contained within the inner cavity 21, and the inner wall of the protective cover 20 is fitted to the outer wall of the massager body 10.

[0040] In this way, the protective cover 20 and the massager body 10 can fit tightly together, which improves the connection strength between the protective cover 20 and the massager body 10, while also improving the efficiency of the vibration of the massager body 10 being transmitted to the protective cover 20, thus enhancing the massage experience.

[0041] In one embodiment, the opening 22 of the protective sleeve 20 is circular, and the inner diameter of the opening 22 is smaller than the outer diameter of the shell 13.

[0042] It is understandable that the protective cover 20 itself is elastic. When installing the massager body 10 into the protective cover 20, the massage end 12 of the housing 13 can be inserted into the opening 22 first, and then the entire housing 13 can be pushed into the inner cavity 21. After the housing 13 is fully inserted into the inner cavity 21, the opening 22 automatically contracts inward, and finally the plug 30 is inserted into the opening 22. Furthermore, during the process of inserting the massage end 12 of the housing 13 into the opening 22, the spherical part 121 of the massage end 12 can gradually expand the opening 22 in a transitional manner, making it easier for the housing 13 to pass through the opening 22 and enter the inner cavity 21.

[0043] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the opening 22, at the end furthest from the inner cavity 21, protrudes and abuts against the periphery of the plug 30, thereby fixing the plug 30 within the opening 22. Thus, the plug 30 is fixed within the opening 22 by an interference fit, and during assembly, the plug 30 can be inserted into the opening 22, making assembly simple and quick.

[0044] In one embodiment, an adhesive substance is present at the junction between the plug 30 and the opening 22. Specifically, a relief groove is formed in the inner wall of the opening 22 near the inner cavity 21, and a gap is formed between the relief groove and the periphery of the plug 30. An adhesive substance such as glue is disposed in the gap to bond and fix the plug 30 in the opening 22, thereby improving the installation stability of the plug 30 and preventing the plug 30 from falling off.

[0045] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the plug 30 is fixed in the opening 22 by interference fit and bonding. In other embodiments, the plug 30 can also be fixed in the opening 22 by transition fit, snap-fit, bolting, welding or other methods. This application does not limit this.

[0046] In one embodiment, the protective cover 20 has a rounded transition surface 23 at one corner near the end of the massage end 12.

[0047] It is understandable that when a user is massaging, the end of the protective cover 20 closest to the massage end 12 is used to contact the human body. By setting a rounded transition surface 23 at this end of the protective cover 20, the outer surface of the protective cover 20 can be made smoother. On the one hand, this can increase the contact area with the human body and improve the vibration transmission efficiency; on the other hand, it can prevent the protective cover 20 from scratching the human body.

[0048] In one embodiment, the protective cover 20 has a placement plane 24 at the end away from the massage end 12. For example, the placement plane 24 is perpendicular to the length direction of the protective cover 20, and when the protective cover 20 is placed on a horizontal / quasi-horizontal surface with the placement plane 24 facing downwards, the center of gravity of the entire protective cover 20 is on its vertical projection, so that the protective cover 20 can be placed stably.

[0049] It is understandable that when the massager is not needed for massage, the user can place the protective case 20 with the flat surface 24 facing down on a support with a horizontal or near-horizontal surface, such as a desktop or charging base, for easy access. The massage end 12 of the protective case 20 will not come into contact with the support, thus improving hygiene.

[0050] In one embodiment, a functional component 17 is provided on the side wall of the massager body 10, and correspondingly, a functional part 25 is provided on the outer wall of the protective cover 20. The position of the functional part 25 corresponds to the position of the functional component 17. In this way, the functional part 25 can display the position of the functional component 17 from the outer wall of the protective cover 20, so as to facilitate the user to know the position of the functional component 17 and to facilitate the user's operation.

[0051] For example, the functional component 17 includes a touch button 171, which has a base and a resilient contact. The base is disposed on the circuit board 14, and the resilient contact is disposed on the base and exposed on the outer wall of the housing 13. Corresponding to the position of the touch button 171, the functional part 25 protrudes from the outer wall of the protective sleeve 20 to form a friction ridge 251. In this way, the user can know the position of the touch button 171 by observing or touching the friction ridge 251, and press the resilient contact of the touch button 171 by pressing the surrounding area of ​​the friction ridge 251, which is convenient for the user to operate.

[0052] In one embodiment, the functional part 25 has a recessed clearance hole 252 formed in the inner wall of the protective sleeve 20. The touch button 171 is received in the clearance hole 252, and the inner wall of the clearance hole 252 has a protruding mating strip 253 that mates with the touch button 171. For example, the mating strip 253 protrudes in a direction close to the elastic contact of the touch button 171, and the mating strip 253 is adapted to the elastic contact of the touch button 171. Thus, when the user presses and rubs the surrounding area of ​​the mating strip 251, the mating strip 253 will directly press the elastic contact of the touch button 171, improving the pressing trigger rate and triggering effectiveness.

[0053] Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of the second embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 6 This is a structural schematic diagram from another perspective of the second embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 7 An exploded view of a second embodiment of the massager provided in this application. Figure 8 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a second embodiment of the massager provided in this application.

[0054] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that a positioning structure 40 is provided between the inner wall of the protective sleeve 20 and the outer wall of the massager body 10. The positioning structure 40 allows the massager body 10 to be circumferentially fixed relative to the protective sleeve 20, reducing relative displacement between the massager body 10 and the protective sleeve 20, and improving the fixing and anti-misplacement effects.

[0055] For example, the positioning structure 40 includes a positioning protrusion 41 disposed on the inner wall of the protective sleeve 20 and a positioning groove 42 disposed on the outer wall of the massager body 10. The positioning protrusion 41 is located at the end of the protective sleeve 20 away from the opening 22, protruding from the inner wall of the protective sleeve 20 and extending along the length of the protective sleeve 20. The positioning groove 42 is recessed into the outer wall of the massager body 10, located at the massage end 12 of the massager body 10, and extending along the length of the massager body 10. The positioning protrusion 41 is adapted to be inserted into the positioning groove 42 to form a positioning fit.

[0056] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the protective sleeve 20 is also provided with a pressing groove 26. The pressing groove 26 is positioned corresponding to the position of the friction protrusion 251, and is formed by an inward indentation from the outer wall of the protective sleeve 20. It can be understood that the pressing groove 26 can form a groove structure on the outer wall of the protective sleeve 20 corresponding to the touch button 171, further displaying the position of the touch button 171 from the outer wall of the protective sleeve 20, while increasing the contact area when the user presses the friction protrusion 251, facilitating user operation and improving the user experience.

[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit it. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this application.
