DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creation features, purposes and effects realized by the utility model easy to understand, the utility model is further described below in combination with specific embodiments and drawings, but the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiments in the embodiments, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0024] The specific embodiments of the utility model are described below in combination with the drawings.

[0025] As Figures 1-6The shown floating friction wheel motor drive head cover opening and closing mechanism, including the head cover assembly 2 applied to the massage chair body 1, the head cover assembly 2 is not limited to the use scene of the massage chair, the head cover assembly 2 includes the fixed head cover 3 fixed at the head position of the massage chair body 1 and the turnover head cover 4 hinged to the inner side of the fixed head cover 3 which can be manually or automatically opened and closed, there is a certain activity gap 5 between the outer side wall of the turnover head cover 4 and the inner side wall of the fixed head cover 3 (that is, after the two are hinged, the side wall of each other does not directly contact, only through the friction wheel 7 and the inner wall of the fixed head cover 3, the rolling friction between the two can reduce the resistance when turning over) and a friction wheel 7 is arranged between the two, at least the outer ring part of the friction wheel 7 is an elastic friction layer (soft material), the friction wheel 7 is directly or indirectly rotatably installed on the outer side of the turnover head cover 4 and the outer ring part of the friction wheel 7 (only the outer ring, of course, it can also be made of soft material as a whole, in this embodiment, the soft material can be rubber or silicone or other materials that are easy to deform under external force, with low hardness and high elasticity) and the inner side wall of the fixed head cover 3 are in contact; or, the friction wheel 7 is directly or indirectly rotatably installed on the inner side of the fixed head cover 3 and the outer ring part of the friction wheel 7 and the outer side wall of the turnover head cover 4 are in contact.

[0026] The turnover head cover 4 is opened and closed by friction transmission between the friction wheel 7 and the inner wall of the fixed head cover 3, which can be manually or electrically operated. The friction wheel 7 transmits force by rotating, and the friction resistance is small. Moreover, the friction wheel 7 has soft properties. When the head cover is deformed (slightly, not particularly serious deformation) and the front end resistance is large, the friction wheel 7 is deformed under pressure, and the turnover head cover 4 can still be smoothly turned over, without the occurrence of jamming or damage to the mechanism.

[0027] The friction wheel 7 on the rotating head cover and the friction force of the fixed head cover 3 are used to achieve the opening and closing of the rotating head cover. The friction wheel 7 can be rotated by electricity or manually. When the front end has resistance, the soft material of the friction wheel 7 can avoid injury to the mechanism or personnel. To ensure that the soft material is not lost and cannot be rotated, a compression spring 11 is added to the bottom of the fixed plate 12 to increase the friction of the friction wheel 7. When the rotating head cover is pushed in the closed state, the soft material of the friction wheel 7 and the rebound force of the compression spring 11 are used to protect the mechanism from being forcibly damaged.

[0028] An arc-shaped guide rail 6 is arranged on the inner side of the fixed head cover 3 and is matched with the opening and closing direction of the turnover head cover 4. The arc-shaped guide rail 6 corresponds to the position of the friction wheel 7, and the friction wheel 7 can roll along the path of the arc-shaped guide rail 6 when the turnover head cover 4 is opened and closed. In this embodiment, the inner arc surface of the arc-shaped guide rail 6 can be provided with anti-skid lines, and the outer wall of the friction wheel 7 can also be provided with a tooth-shaped structure or anti-skid lines. In another embodiment, the arc-shaped guide rail 6 and the friction wheel 7 can be replaced by an arc-shaped rack and a gear.

[0029] A sliding groove 8 is arranged in the middle of the inner side of the fixed head cover 3, and the arc-shaped guide rail 6 is installed in the sliding groove 8 (which can be connected by fasteners, or clamped, or inserted, etc., and any installation mode that can fix the arc-shaped guide rail 6 can be used). The inner wall of the turnover head cover 4 is raised downward, and the outer wall of the turnover head cover 4 forms a groove 9 corresponding to the raised position. The friction wheel 7 is directly or indirectly rotatably installed in the groove 9 and at least partially protrudes from the outer wall of the turnover head cover 4 to abut against the inner wall of the fixed head cover 3 to achieve friction transmission.

[0030] A floating carrier 10 is arranged in the groove 9, and the friction wheel 7 is rotatably installed in the floating carrier 10. A compression spring 11 is arranged between the bottom of the floating carrier 10 and the bottom of the groove 9, which can ensure the friction between the friction wheel 7 and the arc-shaped guide rail 6.

[0031] The floating carrier 10 includes two fixed plates 12 located on both sides of the friction wheel 7. One side wall of one of the fixed plates 12 is provided with a motor 13 for driving the friction wheel 7 to rotate. The bottom of each fixed plate 12 is connected with the compression spring 11 between the bottom of the groove 9. The inner wall of the turnover head cover 4 is provided with a stroke detection plate 20. In this embodiment, the stroke detection plate 20 can be a commercially available magnetic angle detection sensor, a rotary encoder, etc. How the stroke detection plate 20 is electrically connected with the controller and how the angle is detected is not the focus of this application, which is prior art and therefore not specifically described.

[0032] The two fixed plates 12 are directly or indirectly provided with guide wheels 14 located on both sides of the arc-shaped guide rail 6 on one side close to each other. Arc-shaped extension plates 15 are arranged below the guide wheels 14 on both sides of the arc-shaped guide rail 6. The guide wheels 14 are arranged on the arc-shaped extension plates 15. In order to ensure that the friction between the friction wheel 7 and the arc-shaped guide rail 6 is not affected by the deformation of the head cover, the guide wheels 14 are arranged on both sides to ensure the movement gap 5 between the friction wheel 7 and the arc-shaped guide rail 6.

[0033] The bottom of each fixed plate 12 is provided with at least two through holes 16 arranged at intervals. The bottom of the groove 9 is provided with positioning columns 17 corresponding in number and position to the through holes 16. The compression spring 11 is sleeved on the positioning column 17 and is pressed against the bottom of the fixed plate 12.

[0034] The turnover head cover 4 is rotatably connected with the fixed head cover 3 through rotary shafts 18 arranged close to the bottom on both sides. The axis of the rotary shaft 18 coincides with the center of the arc-shaped guide rail 6. Arc-shaped grooves 19 are arranged on both sides of the fixed head cover 3, which are consistent with the opening and closing path of the turnover head cover 4. Guide rods (not shown in the figure) are slidably installed in the arc-shaped grooves 19 on both sides of the turnover head cover 4. This structure can limit the opening and closing angle of the turnover head cover 4.
