DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The utility model will be further described in detail in combination with the embodiment given by the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Referring to the drawings, Figures 1-9 ,

[0030] A kind of controller rotary locking structure, including the connecting seat 1 for cooperation external installation, the control board 2 of being installed reversibly on connecting seat 1;Locking mechanism 3 is arranged between connecting seat 1 and control board 2, after control board 2 is turned to position, locking is formed with connecting seat 1 by locking mechanism 3, to limit control board 2 is turned.

[0031] In the scheme, the connecting seat 1 is used to cooperate with the massage chair to be fixed, and the preferred position is the position corresponding to the armrest of the massage chair, which is convenient for users to observe and operate. When the user uses the massage chair, the angle is adjusted by turning the control panel 2, and after turning to the position, the locking mechanism 3 locks the control panel 2, limits the turning of the control panel 2, so that the control panel 2 cannot easily rotate, and the user uses it more stable, and the control panel 2 will not rotate to change the angle due to slight stress, which will affect the user experience. It should be noted that limiting the turning of the control panel 2 does not mean that the control panel 2 is locked at a fixed angle, but is in a limited state under certain conditions, and the condition is removed or a certain condition is reached. For example, a damping method is adopted, and damping is provided after the control panel 2 is turned to the position. At this time, due to the existence of damping, the control panel 2 will not easily turn, and has a certain limiting effect. When the control panel 2 is stressed too much, the condition for turning the control panel 2 is reached. After the user finishes using the massage chair, the control panel 2 is stressed to remove the limitation of the control panel 2, and the control panel 2 can be turned to reattach to the connecting seat 1, which has a certain storage effect and a protective effect on the control panel 2. In the preferred scheme, as shown in the figure, the connecting seat 1 can have a storage slot, and when the control panel 2 is turned to attach to the connecting seat 1, the control panel 2 can enter the storage slot, which has a better protective effect on the control panel 2.

[0032] Of course, damping is only one of the embodiments, and another implementable scheme is also provided below:

[0033] Referring to Figure 5 、 6 , 7, 9, the control panel 2 is rotatably connected with the connecting seat 1 through the rotating shaft 21, and the rotating shaft 21 is provided with the limiting groove 22; the locking mechanism 3 includes the limiting piece 31 and the elastic component 32 for ejecting the limiting piece 31, and the position of the limiting piece 31 corresponds to the limiting groove 22; when the control panel 2 is turned to open to the position, the limiting piece 31 enters the limiting groove 22 through the elastic component 32 to limit the turning of the control panel 2; when the control panel 2 is stressed to turn to fold, the limiting groove 22 ejects the limiting piece 31 out of the limiting groove 22 to remove the turning limitation of the control panel 2. The rotating shaft 21 of the control panel 2 can be a connecting shaft protruding from both ends of the control panel 2, which is used to form a rotatable connection with the connecting seat 1, and the connecting shaft is used as the rotating shaft 21.

[0034] The limiting slot 22 on the rotating shaft 21 can cooperate with the limiting piece 31, and the elastic component 32 can push the limiting piece 31 out of the limiting slot 22 by the elastic force, thereby limiting the rotation of the rotating shaft 21. At this time, the effect of limiting the turning of the control board 2 can be generated. This limiting effect can be similar to the damping effect, and after the user applies a certain degree of rotating force to the control board 2, the limiting piece 31 can be extruded out of the limiting slot 22, thereby removing the limitation on the control board 2.

[0035] In use, the user first turns the control board 2 in the storage state (at this time, the limiting piece 31 is extruded by the surface of the rotating shaft 21, and the elastic component 32 is in a contracted state), and as the control board 2 is turned, the position of the limiting slot 22 on the rotating shaft 21 will rotate until the control board 2 is turned to the position, at which time the position of the limiting slot 22 corresponds to the position of the limiting piece 31, and the elastic component 32 will push the limiting slot 22 out, so that the limiting piece 31 enters the limiting slot 22 and generates a limiting effect. When the control board 2 is stored, force is applied to the control board 2, and when the force reaches a certain degree, the limiting slot 22 will extrude the limiting piece 31, thereby removing the limiting effect, and continuing to turn the control board 2 until it is attached to the connecting seat 1 and is in the storage state.

[0036] In order to facilitate the extrusion of the limiting piece 31, the limiting slot 22 can be arc-shaped, which can cooperate with the limiting piece 31 to facilitate the extrusion of the limiting piece 31 and provide a certain limiting effect.

[0037] In order to make the cooperation between the limiting piece 31 and the limiting slot 22 more stable, the connecting seat 1 is provided with a containing groove 11 for containing the limiting piece 31 and the elastic component 32, the elastic component 32 is located in the containing groove 11, and the limiting piece 31 is pushed out of the containing groove 11 by the elastic force; the position of the containing groove 11 corresponds to the position of the limiting slot 22 on the rotating shaft 21.

[0038] The containing groove 11 can provide a stable movement space for the elastic component 32 and the limiting piece 31, and the containing groove 11 can guide the movement direction of the limiting piece 31, so that the cooperation between the limiting piece 31 and the limiting slot 22 is more stable.

[0039] Specifically, the limiting piece 31 is spherical, and / or the elastic component 32 is a spring.

[0040] The spherical limiting member 31 is more convenient to cooperate with the limiting groove 22, especially when the limiting groove 22 is arc-shaped or the shape of the limiting groove 22 is matched with the spherical shape of the limiting member 31. Moreover, the end of the spring can be more stably matched with the spherical limiting member 31, especially in the guiding accommodating groove 11, the size of the accommodating groove 11 is matched with the limiting member 31, which can better guide and make the cooperation between the limiting member 31 and the limiting groove 22 more stable.

[0041] Specifically, the bottom of the accommodating groove 11 is connected with the seat 1 to form an opening 12, the size of the opening 12 is matched with the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32, which is used for filling the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 from the opening 12 for installation, and the seat 1 is detachably installed with a sealing plate 13 corresponding to the position of the opening 12, which is used to block the opening 12 to limit the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 from coming out.

[0042] The opening 12 at the bottom of the accommodating groove 11 is arranged to facilitate the installation of the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32, that is, the control plate 2 can be installed with the seat 1 first, and then the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 are installed, which avoids the elastic force of the elastic component 32 causing the limiting member 31 to be in the state of being pushed out, affecting the installation between the rotating shaft 21 and the seat 1. Therefore, this structure not only facilitates the installation of the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32, but also facilitates the installation between the control plate 2 and the seat 1.

[0043] After the installation of the rotating shaft 21 and the seat 1 is completed, the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 can be filled in turn from the opening 12, and finally the sealing plate 13 is installed to block the opening 12 to avoid the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 from coming out. The sealing plate 13 and the seat 1 can be fixed by screws to form a detachable connection.

[0044] In addition, in the preferred design, as shown in Figure 5 、 6 , 7, 8, the rotating shaft 21 or the position of the seat 1 for connecting the rotating shaft 21 is provided with a damping member 4, which provides damping effect when the rotating shaft 21 rotates.

[0045] The damping member 4 can replace the cooperation structure of the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32, or can cooperate with the cooperation structure of the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32. The damping effect of the control panel 2 can provide the angle positioning effect of the control panel 2, and under the damping effect, the angle of the control panel 2 is not easy to change at will, and on the other hand, it can cooperate with the limiting member 31 and the elastic component 32 to generate a better gear fixing effect. Under the cooperation effect of the damping force and the limiting member 31 and the limiting groove 22, the position positioning effect of the control panel 2 is improved, so that it is not easy to flip at will, and even the user can directly press the key on the control panel 2 without causing the control panel 2 to flip.

[0046] Based on the above scheme, in order to make the folding effect of the control panel 2 more stable, referring to Figure 2 、 3 , 4, 7, the first cooperation component 51 is arranged on the connecting seat 1, and the second cooperation component 52 is arranged on the control panel 2. The first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 are attracted to each other, and are used to attract the control panel 2 to be attached to the connecting seat 1.

[0047] The first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 can generate an attraction effect, and the control panel 2 can have better stability when being folded and attached to the connecting seat 1. Moreover, according to the size of the attraction force, the control panel 2 can be automatically retracted and attached to the connecting seat 1 under the action of the attraction force when being close to the connecting seat 1. Moreover, the slow attachment effect can be generated by cooperating with the damping member 4, so as to avoid damaging the control panel 2.

[0048] The above-mentioned damping member 4 can be implemented by using a rubber sheet to attach the rotating shaft 21, so as to generate a damping effect.

[0049] The first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 can be selected as follows:

[0050] 1. The first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 are both magnetic components. The polarities of the two components are opposite, so that the two components can be attracted to each other.

[0051] 2. At least one of the first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 is a magnetic component, and the other is a metal component that can be attracted to the magnetic component. Different from the first scheme, only one magnetic component is needed in this scheme, and the other only needs to be made of metal, such as an iron sheet. At this time, the material can be saved to a certain extent, and the installation is convenient. Only one of the first cooperation component 51 and the second cooperation component 52 needs to be a magnetic component, and the magnetic component can be located on the connecting seat 1 or the control panel 2.

[0052] The above mainly introduces a controller rotary setting locking structure, which is applied to a massage chair to form the following scheme.

[0053] Referring to Figure 1 A massage chair, as shown in the figure, comprises a main body and the above-mentioned controller rotary setting locking structure arranged on the main body, and a connecting seat 1 is fixedly connected to the main body. Preferably, the position of the connecting seat 1 fixedly arranged on the main body is close to the position of the armrest, so as to facilitate the user to operate and observe.

[0054] The above-mentioned is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment. Any technical solution falling within the idea of the present application belongs to the protection scope of the present application. It should be noted that, for ordinary technical personnel in the technical field, some improvements and decorations without departing from the principle of the present application are also considered as the protection scope of the present application.
