Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of massage instrument, concretely relates to a massage chair with double shoulder outside body width detection function. BACKGROUND
[0002] The structure of the conventional massage chair usually comprises a backrest frame, a massage core arranged on the backrest frame and capable of walking up and down along the backrest frame, and armrests arranged on both sides of the chair frame for the user to rest his arms.
[0003] Since the height and body shape of different user groups are different, the width between the two shoulders is also different, and the distance between the armrests of the conventional massage chair is fixed, which causes the user's two arms to rest on the armrests to easily produce an uncomfortable feeling, and also affects the massage effect of the massage mechanism arranged on the armrests, making it difficult to effectively massage the user's arms, shoulder sides and other parts.
[0004] When the conventional massage chair implements targeted massage of the scapular part (including the deltoid muscle, trapezius muscle and other parts) of the user's back, it is achieved by controlling the massage core to move to a specific position for massage, and this moving position is usually fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the height and body shape of the user. Some massage chairs also allow the user to adjust the position of the massage core according to his needs when in use, which is inconvenient to use.
[0005] A flexible fabric sensor (also known as a sensing cloth) is a smart textile integrated with sensing materials or elements, which can convert external stimuli such as pressure and tension into electrical signals, and has soft, body-fitting wearing performance and flexible structure. This sensor is mainly prepared by coating, weaving or encapsulation, and is widely used in medical health monitoring, sports detection and intelligent protection fields. Due to its excellent flexibility and wearability, it also has great potential in the application field of massage instruments. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
