Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] Example

[0027] Combination Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a mechanism for calf-shaking and tapping, including a base plate 1, a drive 2, a tapping shaft 3, an eccentric wheel 4, a tapping component 5, and a striking component 6. The drive 2 is mounted on the base plate 1 to drive the tapping shaft 3 to rotate. The eccentric wheel 4 is fixed to the tapping shaft 3 and rotatably connected to the tapping component 5. The striking component 6 is hinged to the base plate 1 in the middle and has massage heads 7 at both ends, one end of which is hinged to the tapping component 5. The drive 2 drives the tapping shaft 3 to rotate, causing the eccentric wheel 4 to drive the tapping component 5 to reciprocate, thereby causing the two ends of the striking component 6 to tap alternately.

[0028] The base plate 1 refers to the foundation structure that supports the various mechanical components. It can be made of stamped metal sheet with positioning holes on its surface for fixing the drive 2 and bearing housing, ensuring the overall structural rigidity. In this embodiment, the drive 2 is a motor, which is fixed to the base plate 1 via a motor mount.

[0029] The tapping shaft 3 is a rotating shaft, and its two ends can achieve low-friction rotation through bearing assemblies. The eccentric wheel 4 refers to a disc structure with a non-central shaft hole, whose center of rotation is off-center from the geometric center. The tapping component 5 refers to the transmission component connecting the eccentric wheel 4 and the tapping component 6. The tapping component 6 refers to a lever structure with double-ended massage heads 7, and its central fulcrum is hinged to the tapping component 6 fixing seat on the base plate 1 to form a lever effect.

[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, two bearing seats are provided on the base plate 1, including a lower bearing seat cover 8 and an upper bearing seat cover 9. The two ends of the striking shaft 3 are rotatably mounted on the bearing seats via a first bearing 10 and a rubber bearing sleeve 11, respectively. The first bearing 10 ensures the stability and low friction characteristics of the striking shaft 3 during rotation, while the rubber bearing sleeve 11 absorbs the vibration generated during rotation through elastic deformation, reducing the vibration energy transmitted to the base plate 1. Therefore, when the striking shaft 3 drives the eccentric wheel 4 and the striking component 5, the support structure at both ends ensures smooth rotation and reduces overall operating noise.

[0031] Compared with existing technologies, this solution uses a composite support structure of rigid bearings and elastic bearings at both ends of the striking shaft 3, which maintains rotational accuracy and absorbs high-frequency vibrations through rubber material, thus solving the problem of excessive noise caused by mechanical vibration in existing technologies.

[0032] Specifically, the drive unit 2 outputs power to rotate the tapping shaft 3 at a constant speed, causing the eccentric wheel 4, fixed to the shaft, to perform circular motion. The tapping component 5 is connected to the outer edge of the eccentric wheel 4 via bearings, converting the circular motion into reciprocating motion. The tapping component 6, pulled by the tapping component 5, swings around the central hinge point, and the massage heads 7 at both ends alternately rise and fall under the action of levers. When the eccentric wheel 4 rotates to the high position, one end of the tapping component 6 is raised while the other end descends; when it rotates to the low position, the direction of motion is reversed, forming a continuous alternating tapping pattern. This motion pattern can produce a rhythmic impact similar to manual massage, effectively stimulating deep muscle tissue.

[0033] The automatic alternating striking mode of this solution allows for precise control of the striking frequency and force. Compared to other transmission systems, the eccentric wheel 4-speed transmission structure has the advantages of compact structure, low energy consumption, and simple maintenance, making it more suitable for integration into leg support devices.

[0034] Through the above technical solution, this application can generate alternating high-frequency vibration stimulation, effectively promoting blood circulation in the calf area and relieving muscle tissue hypoxia. The alternating movements of the dual-end massage heads 7 create continuous shock waves, which help break down lactic acid buildup in muscles and improve muscle stiffness after exercise. The mechanical transmission structure can precisely control the tapping frequency, adapting to the force requirements of different users and enhancing muscle relaxation effects.

[0035] This application further proposes that the other end of the striking member 6 is provided with an elastic member 12 connected to the base plate 1.

[0036] The elastic element 12 is a component capable of storing and releasing energy through elastic deformation. It can be implemented using a spring, rubber block, or elastic metal sheet, and provides cushioning and resetting during the reciprocating motion of the striking element 6. The other end refers to the end of the striking element 6 furthest from the hinged joint with the striking element 5. Specifically, it can be located at the end of the striking element 6 along its length, and is used to form a flexible connection with the base plate 1 through the elastic element 12 to balance the impact force during the striking process. This further stabilizes the force, maintains force balance, and reduces noise.

[0037] This application further proposes that a large pulley 13 is also provided on the striking shaft 3, and a small pulley 14 is provided on the output shaft of the drive 2. The large pulley 13 and the small pulley 14 are connected by a belt 15. Due to the difference in diameter between the large pulley 13 and the small pulley 14, a reduction ratio is formed, and the striking shaft 3 rotates at a lower speed, driving the eccentric wheel 4 to produce periodic displacement. During this process, the belt 15 effectively absorbs the vibration generated by the drive 2, making the reciprocating motion of the striking element 5 smoother, while reducing the mechanical losses that may be generated by gear transmission.

[0038] This application further proposes that the striking element 5 is sleeved on the eccentric wheel 4 via the second bearing 16. The striking element 5 has a mounting groove 17 with a through hole on one side, and a first pressure cap 18 is connected to this side; the bottom of the mounting groove 17 has a first stepped surface 19; the eccentric wheel 4 has a second stepped surface 20 on the side away from the first stepped surface 19, and a second pressure cap 21 is connected to the other side; the second bearing 16 is mounted on the mounting groove 17 via the first stepped surface 19 and the first pressure cap 18; the eccentric wheel 4 is mounted on the inner ring of the second bearing 16 via the second stepped surface 20 and the second pressure cap 21.

[0039] The mounting groove 17 refers to a hollow structure located on and extending through the side of the striking member 5, which can be formed by milling. It is used to accommodate and position the second bearing 16. The first stepped surface 19 refers to the annular boss structure formed at the bottom of the mounting groove 17, which is used to axially limit the outer ring of the second bearing 16. The first pressure cap 18 refers to a plate-like component covering the opening end of the mounting groove 17, which can be fixed to the side of the striking member 5 by screws, and is used to press the outer ring of the second bearing 16. The second stepped surface 20 refers to the annular boss structure formed on the end face of the eccentric wheel 4, which can be formed by turning, and is used to axially limit the inner ring of the second bearing 16. The second pressure cap 21 refers to an annular component covering the end face of the eccentric wheel 4, which can be fixed to the eccentric wheel 4 by screws, and is used to press the inner ring of the second bearing 16.

[0040] Specifically, the through structure of the mounting groove 17 allows the second bearing 16 to be inserted from the outside of the striking member 5. The first stepped surface 19 and the first pressure cap 18 work together to clamp and fix the outer ring of the second bearing 16 in the mounting groove 17. The second stepped surface 20 of the eccentric wheel 4 cooperates with the second pressure cap 21 to clamp the inner ring of the second bearing 16 at the end of the eccentric wheel 4, so that the eccentric wheel 4 and the second bearing 16 form a stable connection. This structure, through the double limiting of the stepped surface and the pressure cap, prevents the bearing from axially moving during high-speed rotation, while ensuring the rotational freedom between the eccentric wheel 4 and the striking member 5.

[0041] This solution utilizes a two-way clamping structure formed by the stepped surface and the pressure cap to provide reliable axial constraint for both the inner and outer rings of the bearing, effectively reducing the risk of component detachment due to vibration during operation, while also simplifying the assembly process.

[0042] Through the above technical solution, this application achieves stable installation of the rotating connection structure between the eccentric wheel 4 and the patting component 5, avoiding the problem of patting action deviation caused by bearing movement, and ensuring that the massage head 7 forms a regular and uniform patting trajectory on the calf surface, thereby improving the massage effect of relieving muscle stiffness.

[0043] This application is as follows Figure 5 As shown, a protrusion 22 is further provided on the outer periphery of the striking member 5; one end of the striking member 6 is hinged to the protrusion 22.

[0044] The protrusion 22 refers to a local raised structure provided on the outer peripheral surface of the striking member 5, which provides a reliable hinge fulcrum for the striking member 6. Since the protrusion 22 is located on the outer periphery of the striking member 5, the radius of its movement trajectory can be adjusted by adjusting the installation position of the protrusion 22, thereby controlling the swing amplitude of the striking member 6.

[0045] This application further proposes a massage chair, such as Figure 6As shown, it includes a leg support body 23 and a mechanism for shaking and tapping the calves. The base plate 1 is connected to the leg support body 23 so that the massage heads 7 at both ends of the tapping piece 6 can correspond to the left and right placement slots of the leg support body 23 respectively.

[0046] The leg support body 23 refers to the support structure that supports the user's legs. It can be implemented using a rigid plastic frame with grooves to fix the leg position. The left and right placement slots are symmetrically arranged accommodating spaces on both sides of the support structure. They can be implemented using an arc-shaped recessed structure to conform to the contour of the calf and limit the working range of the massage head 7. The connection between the base plate 1 and the leg support body 23 means fixing the mechanism to the support structure. This can be achieved using bolts or clips to ensure the relative positional stability of the drive mechanism 2 and the tapping component. The massage head 7 corresponding to the placement slot means that the tapping end matches the groove space. This can be achieved by adjusting the installation angle or height of the mechanism, allowing the tapping action to precisely target the muscle area.

[0047] Specifically, after the movement is fixed to the leg support body 23 via the base plate 1, the drive component 2 drives the tapping shaft 3 to rotate. The eccentric wheel 4 rotates with the shaft, generating periodic displacement. The tapping component 5 converts the rotational motion into linear reciprocating motion and transmits it to the striking component 6. The striking component 6 forms a lever structure with the central hinge point as the fulcrum, and the massage heads 7 at both ends swing up and down alternately under the traction of the tapping component 5. This creates a regular tapping motion on the surface of the calf muscle group. During this process, the rigid connection between the base plate 1 and the leg support body 23 prevents vibration deviation during the operation of the movement, ensuring that the massage heads 7 are always aligned with the target area.

[0048] Compared to existing technologies, traditional leg massage devices rely on static pressure generated by airbag compression or roller rolling, which can only provide pressure massage to the surface muscles. This solution uses mechanical transmission to generate dynamic tapping motions, simulating the high-frequency vibration characteristics of manual massage techniques, which can deeply stimulate muscle tissue and promote local blood circulation.

[0049] Through the above technical solution, this application can effectively alleviate the problems of calf muscle hypoxia and stiffness caused by exercise or prolonged standing. Dynamic tapping motions can enhance muscle tissue metabolic efficiency and accelerate lactic acid decomposition. Simultaneously, the symmetrical tapping pattern avoids excessive pressure on one side of the muscles, improving massage comfort. The rigid connection structure between the base plate 1 and the supporting body improves the stability of the equipment's operation, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the tapping motions during prolonged use.
