Description
A retractable massage device Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of massage device technology, and in particular to a retractable massage device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern society, with the fast pace of life and increasing work pressure, massage, as an effective way to relax and maintain health, has become increasingly popular. As an indispensable piece of equipment in massage services, the performance and functionality of massage beds directly affect the massage effect and the user experience. Traditional massage beds are typically fixed in structure, large in size, and occupy a lot of space. For massage venues such as small massage shops, beauty salons, or homes, space is often limited, and fixed-structure massage beds bring many inconveniences in terms of storage and layout. When not in use, they occupy a significant amount of space, affecting the placement of other equipment and the movement range of personnel. Moreover, when it is necessary to move or adjust the position of the massage bed, its size and weight limitations make operation very difficult, increasing labor and time costs.
[0003] Existing massage devices with storage capabilities suffer from poor connection stability. The movable bed frame is prone to wobbling and displacement when unfolded, affecting patient comfort and potentially interfering with the normal operation of the physiotherapy equipment, thus reducing treatment effectiveness. Furthermore, current physiotherapy beds on the market are designed with a pull-out structure along their length to reduce floor space. However, existing pull-out structures have several problems: due to insufficient descent travel, the leg height is inconsistent with the back height after being pulled out, resulting in an uneven surface when lying on the massage device in its unfolded state. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a retractable massage device. It aims to solve the technical problem of insufficient upward and downward stroke of the existing massage device. Through a unique structural design, the auxiliary unit can be flexibly switched between the unfolded state and the retracted state. At the same time, the height adjustment component is used to ensure the smoothness and reliability of the switching process.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A retractable massage device includes a main unit and an auxiliary unit. The auxiliary unit is configured to slide along the main unit to switch between an unfolded state and a retracted state. In the unfolded state, the auxiliary unit is connected end-to-end with the main unit; in the retracted state, the auxiliary unit is stacked on top of the main unit. A height adjustment component is further provided between the auxiliary unit and the main unit, the height adjustment component comprising:
[0007] Lifting components, and
[0008] A walking component is used to cooperate with the lifting component to change the relative height between the main unit and the auxiliary unit;
[0009] Specifically, when the unit is switched from the unfolded state to the retracted state, the lifting member and the walking member are configured to provide an upward stroke for the auxiliary unit, so that the auxiliary unit is stacked on the main unit; when the unit is switched from the retracted state to the unfolded state, the lifting member and the walking member are configured to provide a downward stroke for the auxiliary unit, so that the main unit and the auxiliary unit are horizontally connected.
[0010] Furthermore, the lifting member has a lifting surface suitable for height adjustment, and the lifting surface slides in conjunction with the walking member.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting surface is an inclined surface whose height gradually increases in the direction in which the auxiliary unit slides along the main unit to convert to a storage state.
[0012] Furthermore, the walking component includes a vertically arranged base and a pulley portion disposed at one end of the base, the pulley portion slidingly engaging with the lifting surface.
[0013] Furthermore, the lifting component and the traveling component are selectively disposed in the main unit and the auxiliary unit.
[0014] Furthermore, the auxiliary unit includes a base portion and a sliding portion formed by extending downward from one end of the base portion along the direction in which the auxiliary unit is deployed.
[0015] Furthermore, the sliding part is configured to support the auxiliary unit in place of the height adjustment assembly when the walking member disengages from the lifting member.
[0016] Furthermore, the main body unit is provided with a guide rail extending along its length to define the sliding path of the auxiliary unit, and the auxiliary unit is configured with a slider that slides with the guide rail. The guide rail includes:
[0017] The movement range provides a path for the auxiliary unit to move while maintaining a constant height; and
[0018] Use intervals to provide paths so that the auxiliary unit can be fully expanded.
[0019] Furthermore, a movable link is provided between the main unit and the auxiliary unit; in the retracted state, the movable link is flipped to a first position that allows the auxiliary unit to be supported above the fixed bed frame; in the unfolded state, the movable link is flipped to a second position that allows the auxiliary unit to be horizontally connected with the fixed bed frame.
[0020] Furthermore, the main unit has a rubber pad to support the auxiliary unit when the auxiliary unit supports the user's lower body.
[0021] Due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] 1. This utility model discloses a retractable massage device. Through the coordinated operation of the lifting and walking components in the height adjustment assembly, sufficient descent travel is provided for the auxiliary unit. The pulley portion of the walking component slides along the lifting surface of the lifting component. Since the lifting surface is an inclined surface whose height gradually increases as the auxiliary unit slides along the main unit to transition to the retracted state, the pulley portion gradually descends during unfolding, driving the auxiliary unit to descend smoothly and precisely until it is horizontally aligned with the main unit. This process ensures that the auxiliary unit and the main unit are at the same horizontal height in the unfolded state, forming a flat therapeutic surface. Whether used for daily rest or professional therapy, users can feel even support while lying on it, with reasonable force distribution to various parts of the body, effectively improving comfort and therapeutic effect.
[0023] 2. The auxiliary unit of this invention can slide along the main unit and can be quickly stacked on the main unit when not in use. When transitioning from the unfolded state to the stored state, the height adjustment component provides an upward stroke for the auxiliary unit, allowing it to be smoothly raised and stacked. When the massage device is not in use, it can be quickly stored away, freeing up more living space and meeting the diverse space needs of families. Attached Figure Description

[0040] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the features in the following embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0041] Please refer to Figures 1-3. This utility model discloses a retractable massage device, which mainly includes a main body unit 100, an auxiliary unit 200, a height adjustment component 300, and other components. The specific structure, connection method, working principle, and different embodiments of each component will be described in detail below to fully demonstrate the technical solution of this utility model. A housing 800 is also provided to protect and enhance the overall structure.
[0042] The main unit 100 is the foundational support of the entire massage device. Its structural design must ensure sufficient strength and stability to withstand the weight of the user and the auxiliary unit. The main unit 100 has a cuboid shape. The auxiliary unit 200 is configured to slide along the main unit 100 to switch between an unfolded and a retracted state. In this embodiment, the auxiliary unit 200 includes a base portion 210 and a sliding portion 220 extending downward from one end of the base portion 210. The base portion 210 is the main load-bearing part of the auxiliary unit 200, used to support the user's body. Its material and shape match the main unit 100 to ensure overall coordination and stability. The design of the sliding portion 220 enables the auxiliary unit 200 to achieve a sliding function. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the main unit 100 supports the user's upper body, and the auxiliary unit 200 is configured to slide along the length of the main unit 100 to support the user's lower body. In other embodiments, the parts of the main unit 100 and the auxiliary unit 200 that support the user's body may be different.
[0043] Referring to Figures 4-9, the auxiliary unit 200 is configured to switch between an unfolded and a stowed state by sliding along the main unit 100. The auxiliary unit 200 includes a base portion 210 and a sliding portion 220 formed by extending downward from one end of the base portion 210 in the direction in which the auxiliary unit is unfolded. The base portion 210 is the main load-bearing part of the auxiliary unit 200, used to support the user's body; its material and shape match the main unit 100 to ensure overall coordination and stability. The sliding portion 220 is designed to enable the sliding function of the auxiliary unit 200 when the height adjustment component does not provide support. A slider 500 is disposed on the base portion 210, which slides in conjunction with the guide rail 400. This slider 500 may be made of a wear-resistant material to reduce wear during sliding and improve service life. In the unfolded state, the auxiliary unit 200 is connected end to end with the main unit 100 to form a complete physiotherapy plane; in the folded state, the auxiliary unit 200 is stacked on the main unit 100 to save space.
[0044] In this embodiment, a height adjustment assembly 300 is further provided between the auxiliary unit 200 and the main unit 100. This height adjustment assembly 300 includes a lifting member 310 and a traveling member 320. The traveling member 320 cooperates with the lifting member 310 to change the relative height between the main unit 100 and the auxiliary unit 200. Specifically, when switching from the unfolded state to the stowed state, the lifting member 310 and the traveling member 320 are configured to provide an upward stroke for the auxiliary unit 200, allowing it to be stacked on top of the main unit. When switching from the stowed state to the unfolded state, the lifting member 310 and the traveling member 320 are configured to provide a downward stroke for the auxiliary unit 200, allowing the main unit and the auxiliary unit to be horizontally aligned. In this embodiment, the lifting member 310 has a lifting surface 311 suitable for height adjustment, and the lifting surface 311 slides in cooperation with the traveling member 320. The lifting surface 311 is an inclined surface whose height gradually increases as the auxiliary unit 200 slides along the main unit 100 to transition to a retracted state. This inclined surface provides sufficient upward and downward travel for the auxiliary unit 200. In this embodiment, the lifting member 310 is fixed to the main unit 100 by means of bolts or other methods. In other embodiments, the lifting member 310 can also be fixed to the auxiliary unit 200. The specific installation position can be selected according to the actual situation, that is, either the lifting member 310 or the traveling member 320 can be configured in the main unit 100 and the auxiliary unit 200. The traveling member 320 includes a vertically arranged base 321 and a pulley portion 322 disposed at one end of the base 321. The pulley portion 322 slides in cooperation with the lifting surface 311. The base 321 has sufficient strength and stability to support the weight of the pulley portion 322 and the auxiliary unit 200. The design of the pulley section 322 can effectively reduce the friction between the traveling component 320 and the lifting surface 311, making the auxiliary unit 200 move more smoothly during ascent and descent. The traveling component 320 can also be fixed to the main unit 100 or the auxiliary unit 200 by welding, bolting, or other means to achieve its working cooperation with the lifting component 310.
[0045] It should be noted that in this embodiment, a movable connecting rod 600 is also provided between the auxiliary unit 200 and the main unit 100. When in the retracted state, the movable connecting rod 600 can be flipped to a first position to support the auxiliary unit 200 above the main unit 100; when in the unfolded state, it can be flipped to a second position to achieve horizontal docking between the auxiliary unit 200 and the main unit 100. The two ends of the movable connecting rod 600 are respectively connected to the auxiliary unit 200 and the main unit 100 via hinges to ensure its flexible flipping capability.
[0046] The main unit 100 is provided with a guide rail 400 extending along its length, which defines the sliding path of the auxiliary unit 200. The auxiliary unit 200 is equipped with a slider 500 that slides with the guide rail 400. The slider 500 may be made of a wear-resistant material to reduce wear during sliding and improve its service life. The guide rail 400 includes a movement section 410 and a use section 420. The movement section 410 is configured to provide a path for the auxiliary unit 200 to move while maintaining a constant height, ensuring stability during storage and deployment. The use section 420 is configured to provide a path for the auxiliary unit 200 to fully unfold to meet the needs of physiotherapy. The guide rail 400 may be made of metal with a finely machined surface to reduce friction during the sliding of the auxiliary unit 200. The main unit 100 has a rubber pad 700, which is made of soft and elastic rubber. Its function is to provide support for the auxiliary unit 200 when it supports the user's lower body, increasing comfort and stability. The rubber pad 700 can be fixed to the main unit 100 by adhesive or other means.
[0047] Working principle: When transitioning from the unfolded state to the retracted state, the auxiliary unit 200 slides along the movement range 410 of the guide rail 400 towards the main unit 100, and the pulley portion 322 of the traveling member 320 slides on the lifting surface 311. Since the lifting surface 311 is an inclined surface with gradually increasing height, as the auxiliary unit 200 slides, the pulley portion 322 gradually rises on the lifting surface 311, thereby driving the auxiliary unit 200 to rise and providing the auxiliary unit 200 with an upward stroke, allowing it to be stacked on the main unit 100. When transitioning from the retracted state to the unfolded state, the auxiliary unit 200 slides along the guide rail 400 away from the main unit 100, and the pulley portion 322 gradually descends on the lifting surface 311, providing the auxiliary unit 200 with a downward stroke, allowing the auxiliary unit 200 to be horizontally aligned with the main unit 100. When the walking component 320 detaches from the lifting component 310, the sliding part 220 replaces the height adjustment component 300 to support the auxiliary unit 200, ensuring the stability of the auxiliary unit 200 in the deployed state.
[0048] When the user needs to use the massage device, they push the auxiliary unit 200, causing it to slide along the movement range 410 of the guide rail 400 of the main unit 100. During the sliding process, the pulley portion 322 of the walking component 320 gradually descends on the lifting surface 311, and the auxiliary unit 200 descends accordingly. When the auxiliary unit 200 slides to the use range 420 of the guide rail 400, the auxiliary unit 200 is horizontally aligned with the main unit 100, and the movable linkage 600 flips to the second position, firmly connecting the auxiliary unit 200 to the main unit 100, forming a complete therapeutic plane. At this time, the user can lie on the massage device, and the rubber pad 700 of the main unit 100 and the auxiliary unit 200 together provide comfortable support for the user.
[0049] When the physiotherapy session is over or the massage device needs to be stored, pull the auxiliary unit 200 to slide it in the opposite direction along the guide rail 400. During the sliding process, the pulley portion 322 of the traveling member 320 gradually rises on the lifting surface 311, and the auxiliary unit 200 rises accordingly. When the auxiliary unit 200 slides above the main unit 100, the movable connecting rod 600 flips to the first position, and the auxiliary unit 200 is stacked on the main unit 100, completing the storage process and effectively saving space.
[0050] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
