TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a massage machine core structure especially a heating structure for mechanical hand massage head. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the prior art, the mechanical hand massage head with heating structure is widely used in household physiotherapy equipment and professional massage instruments. Its main function is to improve the massage comfort and promote blood circulation through heating. In the use process, the conductive conduction path of the heating structure is usually that the PCB board supplies power to the heating wire, the heating wire transmits heat to the metal sleeve, and then the metal sleeve conducts heat to the surface of the massage ball. In order to maximize the heat conduction efficiency, the heating wire and the metal sleeve are usually fixed in an axial close contact manner to ensure that the contact area between the two is maximized.
[0003] However, the prior art has obvious defects. Since the heating wire and the metal sleeve are only fixed in an axial close contact manner, this contact mode may cause uneven heat distribution. Specifically, the axial close contact form is difficult to ensure completely uniform pressure distribution in actual assembly, which is easy to cause local poor contact or the existence of gap, so that the heat transfer on the metal sleeve appears regional difference. This uneven heating phenomenon not only affects the massage experience, but also may cause potential risks to the user's skin due to local overheating, and at the same time reduces the durability and stability of the equipment.

The circuit board is provided with two conductive elastic contacts, and the fixing sleeve is provided with a through hole for the elastic contacts to pass through. The two elastic contacts respectively abut against the start end and the end of the heating wire after passing through the through hole.

[0019] This utility model embodiment provides a heating structure for a robotic arm massage head, as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes a rotatable massage head 1, which internally houses a conductive sleeve 11, a heating wire 12, a fixing sleeve 13, and a circuit board 14. The conductive sleeve 11 and the massage head 1 share the same axis. The heating wire 12, powered by the circuit board 14, generates heat and transfers it to the massage head 1 through the conductive sleeve 11, thus achieving the heating function. To ensure the heating wire 12 is stably positioned within the conductive sleeve 11, several positioning holes 111 are circumferentially arranged at both ends of the conductive sleeve 11. These positioning holes 111 are divided into two groups, each group distributed circumferentially and having a different axial distance from the centerline of the conductive sleeve 11. The heating wire 12 is elastic and passes through the positioning holes 111 at both ends sequentially, forming a radial positioning. This design not only effectively fixes the heating wire 12 but also allows it to better conduct heat to the conductive sleeve 11.
[0020] Annular blocks 112 are provided at both ends of the conductive sleeve 11 between the two sets of positioning holes 111 to prevent creepage between adjacent heating wires 12 located in the two sets of positioning holes 111, thereby improving safety. In addition, a starting hole 113 is provided at one end of the conductive sleeve 11, and an ending hole 114 is provided at the other end, for inserting the starting and ending ends of the heating wires 12, respectively. Two conductive elastic contacts 141 are provided on the circuit board 14. These elastic contacts 141 pass through through holes 131 on the fixing sleeve 13 and abut against the starting and ending ends of the heating wires 12, thereby forming a complete circuit path.
[0021] This embodiment also includes a fixed shaft 2, located at the center of the massage head 1, for supporting the entire structure. The fixed sleeve 13 consists of a base sleeve 132 and a seat sleeve 133, with the seat sleeve 133 snapping onto the base sleeve 132. The seat sleeve 133 has a placement groove 134 for housing a thermostat 135 and a thermistor 136. The thermostat 135 controls the maximum temperature of the heating wire 12, while the thermistor 136 provides real-time temperature feedback so that the heating temperature of the heating wire 12 can be adjusted via the circuit board 14. The fixed sleeve 13 and the conductive sleeve 11 are fixed together by fastening bolts 3, while the massage head 1 and the fixed shaft 2 are fixed by fasteners 4. The two work together to form a snap-fit structure between the massage head 1 and the conductive sleeve 11, thereby ensuring the stability of the overall structure.
[0022] The working principle of the embodiment is as follows: when the circuit board 14 is powered on, the current is transmitted to the heating wire 12 through the elastic contact 141, so that the heating wire 12 generates heat. The heat of the heating wire 12 is uniformly transmitted to the massage head 1 through the conductive sleeve 11, so that the heating of the massage head 1 is realized. The temperature controller 135 is responsible for monitoring the heating temperature, and when the temperature reaches the set value, the temperature controller 135 will cut off the circuit to prevent overheating. The thermistor 136 monitors the temperature change in real time and feeds back the data to the circuit board 14, so as to dynamically adjust the heating power of the heating wire 12. The design of the annular stop block 112 avoids the problem of creeping between the heating wires 12, and improves the safety in use.
[0023] The above embodiment is only one of the preferred specific embodiments of the utility model, and the usual changes and replacements made by those skilled in the art within the technical scheme range of the utility model are all included in the protection range of the utility model.
