[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a massage unit, including a massage unit body 1 and a base 2. The massage unit body 1 is mounted on a flexible massage body and extends from the surface of the flexible massage body. The base 2 is disposed within the flexible massage body. The massage unit body 1 is mounted on the base 2 and extends from the base 2. The massage unit body 1 is movable relative to the base 2. A support member 19 is also provided between the massage unit body 1 and the base 2. The support member 19 suspends the massage unit body 1 relative to the base 2. Under the action of the support member 19, the massage unit body 1 can be kept in a horizontal position when the flexible massage body is vertically unfolded. The massage unit body is connected to the flexible massage body through the rear support member, and the support member can support the massage unit body to be suspended relative to the base body. This allows the flexible massage body to support the massage unit body when unfolded, preventing the massage unit body from falling due to its own weight. In addition, the support member can push the massage unit body towards the user's contact area when the flexible massage body is in use, making it fit the massage area more closely, thereby improving the massage effect.

[0026] Furthermore, in this design, through the support member 19, the massage unit body 1 not only vibrates itself, but also, in its spring-supported suspended structure, changes angle with the bending of the flexible massage host during use, allowing it to fit more closely to the massage area. When the flexible massage host is vertically unfolded, the massage unit body 1 remains in a horizontal position, as described in this design. Figure 2 When the flexible massage body is unfolded vertically and placed vertically, the massage unit body 1 remains in a horizontal position, meaning that the massage unit body 1 does not sag or bend downwards due to its own weight.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment of this solution, the support member 19 is a flexible support member, which allows the massage unit body 1 to swing relative to the base 2 to change the orientation of its exposed end. The flexible material allows the support member 19 to achieve the aforementioned support effect while providing a swingable and directional support for the massage unit body 1, enabling it to change orientation as the flexible massage body bends. Specifically, the support member 19 is made of silicone or rubber and can be connected between the massage unit body 1 and the base 2 by means of adhesive bonding to provide support.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment of this solution, the support member 19 is a spring plate. One end of the spring plate is fixed inside the base 2, and the other end is connected to the massage unit body 1. It provides support through the spring plate structure, offering better support compared to the previous embodiment, and is easier to install. The spring plate can be snapped between the massage unit body 1 and the base 2 using a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0029] Furthermore, the base 2 in this design is a rigid structure capable of mounting the support member 19, while the base itself only needs to be fixed to the flexible massage body. Alternatively, the base can be directly adhered to the flexible massage body.

[0030] Specifically, the massage unit body 1 includes at least a housing 11, a cover 12 connected to the housing 11, and a massage element 13 disposed within the housing 11. The cover 12 is detachably connected to the housing 11 to install the massage element 13. The housing 11 has a rearward through-cavity, and the massage element 13 is installed in the cavity. The cover 12 is connected to the rear of the housing 11 to seal the cavity. This design is simple and easy to assemble. In this embodiment, the massage element 13 can be a motor, which drives an eccentric component to rotate, thereby achieving overall vibration of the massage unit body.

[0031] In this design, the base 2, besides assembling the support member 19, also serves to limit and install the massage unit body 1. Specifically, the cover 12 is spaced apart from the base 2. The base 2 has a floating cavity extending to the front. The housing 11 is located within the floating cavity, with its front end protruding from it. The outer circumference of the housing 11 is provided with a limiting structure that cooperates with the base 2 to prevent the housing 11 from detaching from the floating cavity. While serving as the main component limiting the massage unit body 1, the base 2 also provides sufficient freedom for the massage unit body 1, allowing it to change orientation as the flexible massage body bends during wear, thus better suiting its massage function.

[0032] The limiting structure of this solution can be designed with an inwardly facing edge at the opening at the front end of the base 2, so that the blocking massage unit body 1 can be directly separated from the edge of the floating cavity. This can effectively prevent the massage unit body 1 from being pulled apart from the flexible massage body during use or daily carrying.

[0033] In addition, to enhance the massage effect, the massage unit body 1 further includes a face cover 14 disposed on the housing 11. The face cover 14 is disposed on the exposed surface of the housing 11, and a heating element or conductive sheet 18 is provided between the face cover 14 and the housing 11. Generally, the face cover 14 is a metal part or at least a thermally or electrically conductive material, so that heat or pulse current can be transferred to the face cover 14 through the heating element or conductive sheet to provide thermal or electrical stimulation massage to the parts of the user's body that are in contact with it.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model also provides a massage appliance, including a flexible massage body. The flexible massage body includes at least a flexible substrate 91 and a flexible back shell 92. The flexible substrate 91 is connected to the front side of the flexible back shell 92. The flexible substrate 91 has several through holes, and each through hole is provided with one of the aforementioned massage units. It is mainly used for massaging the waist, abdomen, and legs, and because the massage appliance is equipped with this massage unit, it also has the same beneficial effects.

[0035] Furthermore, in this solution, the flexible substrate 91 can be made of silicone material for the face cover, while the flexible back shell 92 can be made of materials such as leather and silicone. The resulting flexible massage body can be bent and rolled up to fit the user for wearing and massage.

[0036] This utility model provides a massage unit, which is connected to a flexible massage body by a rear support member. The support member can support the massage unit body to be suspended relative to the base, so that the flexible massage body can also support the massage unit body when it is unfolded, preventing the massage unit body from falling due to its own weight. In addition, the support member can push the massage unit body towards the user's contact area when the flexible massage body is in use, so that it fits the massage area more closely, thereby improving the massage effect.

[0037] It should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used in this utility model to describe various information, but this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this utility model, "first" information can also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information can also be referred to as "first" information. In addition, the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings.
