Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive seat technology, specifically to a foot massage mechanism, a seat, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In modern life, people are spending more and more time in their cars, and their demands for in-car comfort are also increasing. During long drives or rides, feet are prone to fatigue; therefore, foot massage functionality has become an important direction for improving the in-car riding experience.

[0003] Currently, most common foot massage methods on the market use air bag massage. This air bag massage method has several drawbacks. First, air bag massage mainly relies on inflating and deflating the air bag to compress the soles of the feet, resulting in poor massage pressure and precision in targeting specific acupoints and muscle groups, making it difficult to effectively stimulate the various acupoints and muscle groups on the soles of the feet and achieve the desired relaxation effect. Second, traditional foot massage methods are relatively simple, limited to the simple inflation and deflation of the air bag. After prolonged use, users may experience boredom, and it cannot meet the diverse massage needs of different users.

[0004] Therefore, there are still many more massage methods to be developed in the field of car seat foot massage. Utility Model Content

[0040] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0041] like Figure 10 and 11 As shown, a vehicle has a seat inside, which includes a backrest 6 and a foot massage mechanism integrated on the rear side of the backrest 6. In this embodiment, the foot massage mechanism is flipped and mounted on the rear side of the backrest 6. The rear side of the backrest 6 has a recessed area 61 that conforms to the outer contour of the foot massage mechanism. When the massage function is not in use, the foot massage mechanism rotates and folds into the recessed area 61, forming an integral part with the rear side of the backrest 6, without occupying extra space in the vehicle, and its appearance is well-integrated. When the foot massage mechanism is needed, it can be rotated downwards, and the foot massage mechanism can be flipped and unfolded to a downward tilted state on the rear side of the backrest 6, allowing rear passengers to receive a foot massage. In practical applications, the rotation of the foot massage mechanism relative to the backrest 6 can be operated manually or electrically. The structure of the foot massage mechanism will be described in detail below. In this embodiment, the orientation of the foot massage mechanism is described with reference to the seat, such as: the width direction of the base 1 corresponds to the width direction of the seat in the vehicle.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 A foot massage mechanism includes a base 1, a massage component 2, and a drive assembly 4. The massage component 2 is movably mounted on the base 1, and the drive assembly 4 drives the massage component 2 to move back and forth. Furthermore, the massage component 2 has massage protrusions 21 distributed on its top. When a user's foot rests on the massage component 2, the drive assembly 4 drives the massage component 2 to move back and forth, and the massage protrusions 21 on the massage component 2 can stimulate the user's soles in a scraping and kneading massage manner.

[0043] Based on the above structural design, when a user needs to use the foot massage mechanism, the foot massage mechanism can be manually or electrically flipped so that the foot massage mechanism is tilted downward relative to the backrest 6. Then, the foot is pressed on the massage component 2, and the drive component 4 drives the massage component 2 to move back and forth. The massage protrusions 21 on the massage component 2 can stimulate the user's soles with a back-and-forth scraping massage method, thereby achieving the purpose of effective massage.

[0044] Furthermore, a guide structure is provided between the base 1 and the massage component 2. During the back-and-forth movement of the massage component 2, this guide structure enables the massage component 2 to also move up and down, that is, while the massage component 2 slides back and forth, its height also changes. This structural design has the following advantages:

[0045] 1. The massage protrusions 21 on the massage component 2 will also push upward while scraping and massaging back and forth, thereby realizing the pressing massage function on the sole of the foot and deeply stimulating the acupoints on the sole of the foot.

[0046] Second, it can ensure that the massage component 2 is in a low position when folded. The massage protrusions 21 on the massage component 2 are stored inside the base 1 so that the upper surface of the foot massage mechanism remains flat. At this time, the foot massage mechanism can also be used as a footrest, which improves the compactness of the product when folded and the multi-functionality of the product.

[0047] This structural design allows the foot massage mechanism to be flexibly installed inside the vehicle, not limited to the backrest 6, but also on the floor inside the vehicle, so that users can rest their feet when the massage function is not in use.

[0048] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The guide structure includes a limiting pin 11 fixed on the base 1 and a strip hole 22 provided on the massage component 2. The limiting pin 11 extends along the width direction of the base 1. The strip hole 22 is slidably fitted onto the limiting pin 11, and the strip hole 22 serves as a guide and limiter.

[0049] Furthermore, the strip hole 22 can be a straight hole that is inclined on the massage component 2, or the strip hole 22 can be an arc-shaped hole. Both of these structures can enable the massage component 2 to combine up-and-down movement during the back-and-forth movement.

[0050] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, a rotating shaft 12 is rotatably mounted on the base 1. The massage component 2 has a forward-extending connecting part 23, the front end of which is eccentrically rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 12. The drive assembly 4 can drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate. The drive assembly 4 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, and under the coordinated action of the connecting part 23, the limiting pin 11, and the strip hole 22, it can drive the massage component 2 to reciprocate back and forth and also move up and down.

[0051] For example Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, there are four sets of massage components 2, arranged symmetrically in pairs on the left and right sides of the base 1, so as to simultaneously massage the soles of the user's left and right feet. The two sets of massage components 2 in the left and right sides have the same structure; therefore, only the structure of one side will be described. In the left side of the base 1, two sets of massage components 2 are arranged one in front of the other. The massage component 2 located at the front is positioned in the middle of the base 1, corresponding to the arch of the foot, while the massage component 2 located at the rear is positioned at the back of the base 1, targeting the back of the sole. In practical applications, the structure, number, and position of the massage components 2 can be flexibly arranged according to requirements. Furthermore, the two sets of massage components 2 are linked together; the drive component 4 can drive one set of massage components 2 to move back and forth, and when this set moves back and forth, it can coordinate the movement of the other set of massage components 2.

[0052] In this embodiment, the driving component 4 can drive the front massage component 2 to move. Specifically, for example... Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the front massage component 2 is connected to the rotating shaft 12 via the connecting part 23. The rear massage component 2 is provided with a forward-extending linkage part 24, the front end of which is rotatably connected to the rear end of the front massage component 2. The rear massage component 2 is also provided with a corresponding limiting pin 11 and a strip hole 22. The drive assembly 4 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, causing the front massage component 2 to move back and forth. It can move back and forth under the coordinated action of the linkage part 24, the limiting pin 11, and the strip hole 22 of the rear massage component 2.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 3In this embodiment, the strip-shaped hole 22 on the front massage component 2 is an inclined straight hole, while the strip-shaped hole 22 on the rear massage component 2 is an arc-shaped hole. This design allows the front massage component 2 to perform scraping and pressing massage on the middle of the sole during massage, while the rear massage component 2 can perform scraping and pressing massage on the back of the sole. When the massage function is not in use, all massage components 2 are in a low position, and all massage protrusions 21 are located inside the massage mechanism, ensuring the flatness of the massage mechanism surface.

[0054] Revisit Figure 2 and 3 The top surface of the massage component 2 located on the front side is constructed into an arc-shaped structure, with massage protrusions 21 distributed on the arc-shaped structure. This structural design better conforms to the structure of the arch of the foot, enhancing the massage effect.

[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the four massage components 2 share a single drive assembly 4, which is located in the middle area of ​​the base 1. The drive assembly 4 includes a motor 41 fixed to the base 1, an output component 42 mounted on the output shaft of the motor 41, and a first gear 43 fixed on the rotating shaft 12. The motor 41 can directly or indirectly drive the first gear 43 to rotate. In this embodiment, the output component 42 drives the first gear 43 to rotate indirectly, as detailed below: [The text abruptly ends here, so the translation stops as well.] Figure 5 As shown, the output component 42 is a worm gear, and a drive shaft 44 is rotatably mounted above the output component 42. A drive gear 45 and a linkage gear 46 are fixedly fitted along the axial direction of the drive shaft 44. The drive gear 45 meshes with the output component 42, and the linkage gear 46 meshes with the first gear 43. The motor 41 drives the output component 42 on the output shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 45 to rotate, transmitting the power to the linkage gear 46 on the drive shaft 44. The rotation of the linkage gear 46 then drives the first gear 43 to rotate. This design increases the stability of the transmission.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 7 The base 1 is equipped with a foot sleeve 5, which allows the user's foot to be inserted into the foot sleeve 5 as if wearing slippers. After the user inserts their foot into the foot sleeve 5, the foot sleeve 5 can keep the foot stably on the foot massage mechanism to enhance the massage effect.

[0057] Further, refer to Figures 6 to 8 One end of the instep sleeve 5 is fixedly connected to the base 1 via an elastic structure 52. This design ensures that when the massage function is not in use, the elastic tension of the elastic structure 52 keeps the instep sleeve 5 flat, covering the surface of the massage mechanism and maintaining a smooth surface. During use, the user's foot can overcome the tension of the elastic structure 52 to push the instep sleeve 5 upwards. This structural design also accommodates different foot sizes, satisfying users of various body types. Figure 9 In this embodiment, the instep sleeve 5 extends along the width of the base 1, with its middle portion fixed to the center of the base 1. Both ends of the instep sleeve 5 extend to the left and right sides of the base 1, respectively. Each end of the instep sleeve 5 is fixedly connected to a tensioning structure 52, which is located at the left and right ends of the bottom of the base 1. This design satisfies the need for secure fixation of the user's left and right feet.

[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, the instep sleeve 5 has an inflatable interlayer 51 inside, and the base 1 has an air pump for inflating the inflatable interlayer 51. The air pump is powered by a motor 41. When the user's foot is inserted into the instep sleeve 5, the air pump inflates the inflatable interlayer 51, providing downward pressure to the instep, so that the foot can be pressed firmly onto the massage mechanism, further enhancing the massage effect of the foot massage.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 11 A top cover 13 is rotatably mounted on the base 1, and the top cover 13 can be opened via an unlock button. The top cover 13 not only protects the foot massage mechanism, but also, when the massage function is not in use, the foot massage mechanism can be flipped downwards to serve as a footrest for rear passengers. Passengers' feet can rest on the top cover 13, which has the advantages of high practicality and efficient space utilization.

[0060] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art, under the guidance of the present utility model, can make various similar representations without departing from the spirit and claims of the present utility model, and such modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
