[0023] This utility model embodiment provides a massage device, which includes: a mounting frame 100, multiple walking components 400, and a massage mechanism 200. Multiple moving tracks 300 are spaced apart on the mounting frame 100, and the massage mechanisms 200 are correspondingly arranged on each of the moving tracks 300. The walking components 400 are disposed on the massage mechanisms 200 and are used to drive the multiple massage mechanisms 200 to move along the moving tracks 300 respectively. A limit switch 500 is provided on the mounting frame 100, and the limit switch 500 is signal-connected to the walking components 400. The limit switch 500 is used to detect the position signal of the massage mechanism 200, and the walking components 400 adjust the moving direction of the massage mechanism 200 according to the position signal.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting bracket 100 can be connected to external massage equipment (such as a massage chair or massage bed). Multiple moving tracks 300 can be installed on the mounting bracket 100. The moving tracks 300 can be either recessed moving grooves or protruding sliding rails, as long as they guide the movement of the massage mechanism 200; the specific design is not limited. Each moving track 300 is equipped with a massage mechanism 200, and each massage mechanism 200 is movably connected to the moving track 300 via a walking component 400. Driven by the walking component 400, each massage mechanism 200 can move independently along its corresponding moving track 300. Simultaneously, each massage mechanism 200 has an identical structure and can perform massage operations independently. During massage, by controlling the position, direction of movement, or speed of different massage mechanisms 200, different massage modes can be applied to different parts of the user's body, thereby combining to form different massage techniques and improving massage comfort and effectiveness.

[0025] It should be noted that, Figure 1 The diagram is only a schematic diagram of an embodiment with two massage mechanisms 200. In this embodiment, the number of massage mechanisms 200 can be set to two, three or more depending on actual use needs and installation space, and there is no specific limitation.

[0026] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, the walking assembly 400 includes a walking motor 401, a walking shaft 402, a walking gear 403, and a walking rack 404. The walking shaft 402 and the walking motor 401 are both mounted on the massage mechanism 200. The rotating shaft of the walking motor 401 drives the walking shaft 402. The rack is mounted on the moving track 300. The walking gear 403 is mounted on the walking shaft 402, and the walking gear meshes with the rack.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the massage mechanism 200 is equipped with a traveling shaft 402, and a traveling gear 403 is mounted on the traveling shaft 402. Correspondingly, the mounting bracket 100 is equipped with a rack along the length of the moving track 300. The traveling gear 403 on the traveling shaft 402 meshes with the rack. The rotating shaft of the traveling motor 401 is driven and connected to the traveling shaft 402 through a gear reducer or coupling. When the traveling motor 401 drives the traveling shaft 402 to rotate, the meshing action of the traveling gear 403 and the rack drives the entire massage mechanism 200 to move along the moving track 300. During massage, the massage mechanism 200 needs to move back and forth along the moving track 300. To change the direction of movement of the massage mechanism 200, it is only necessary to adjust the rotation direction of the traveling shaft 402. This can be achieved by adjusting the rotation direction of the traveling motor 401 or adjusting the transmission gear of the reducer. The specific adjustment method is not limited, and any existing adjustment method can be used. Limit switches 500 are installed on the moving track 300. These limit switches 500 can be either mechanical position detection devices or electromagnetic induction devices. The number and installation position of the limit switches 500 can be selected according to actual detection needs. For example, limit switches 500 can be installed at both ends of the moving track 300. When a limit switch 500 detects that the massage mechanism 200 has moved to the limit position at one end of the moving track 300, it detects the corresponding position signal, and the walking component 400 immediately moves in the reverse direction to prevent the massage mechanism 200 from exceeding the limit position of the moving track 300, thus ensuring the safety of the massage device.

[0028] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, each moving track 300 is provided with multiple racks, the multiple racks are parallel to each other, and the traveling shaft 402 is provided with multiple traveling gears 403, and the traveling gears 403 mesh with the racks one by one.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, multiple parallel racks can be arranged along the length of the moving track 300, and a corresponding number of traveling gears 403 are arranged on the traveling shaft 402. The multiple traveling gears 403 mesh with the racks to improve the stability and safety of the massage mechanism 200 during movement. For example, racks can be arranged on both sides of the moving track 300, and traveling gears 403 can be arranged at both ends of the traveling shaft 402. During movement, the traveling gears 403 at both ends drive synchronously, ensuring that the massage mechanism 200 moves synchronously on both sides, preventing the massage mechanism 200 from tilting or derailing, and ensuring the stability of the massage mechanism 200.

[0030] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, the mounting bracket 100 includes a plurality of parallel guide rails 101, with adjacent guide rails 101 spaced apart to form a moving track 300.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1As shown, a mounting bracket 100 is formed by assembling multiple spaced guide rails 101. The overall structure is simple, lightweight, and easy to connect to massage equipment. The guide rails 101 are arranged in parallel at intervals, and a moving track 300 is formed between adjacent guide rails 101, thereby mounting the massage mechanism 200. Figure 1 As shown, two parallel moving tracks 300 can be formed by three spaced guide rails 101, thereby installing two massage mechanisms 200. When it is necessary to increase the number of massage mechanisms 200, simply increase the number of guide rails 101 accordingly.

[0032] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, guide wheels 405 are provided at both ends of the walking shaft 402, and guide grooves 1011 are provided along the length direction of the moving track 300 in the guide rail 101, with the guide wheels 405 slidably engaged in the guide grooves 1011.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, two adjacent guide rails 101 are provided with guide grooves 1011 in opposite directions. Guide wheels 405 are correspondingly provided at both ends of the traveling shaft 402, and the guide wheels 405 at both ends of the traveling shaft 402 are slidably engaged in the guide grooves 1011 of the two guide rails 101. The guide grooves 1011 serve an installation function, limiting the massage mechanism and preventing the massage core 200 from derailing. Simultaneously, the guide grooves 1011, in conjunction with the guide wheels 405, provide movement guidance, ensuring the massage core 200 moves back and forth along the moving track 300, improving the smoothness and stability of the massage core 200's movement.

[0034] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, the walking assembly 400 includes multiple walking shafts 402, each walking shaft 402 having guide wheels 405 at both ends, and the guide wheels 405 being slidably engaged in the guide grooves 1011.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the massage mechanism 200 is equipped with multiple walking shafts 402, and each walking shaft 402 has guide wheels 405 at both ends. Through the sliding cooperation between the multiple sets of guide wheels 405 and the guide groove 1011, the stability of the massage mechanism 200 during installation and movement is further improved, and the massage mechanism 200 is prevented from tilting or derailing.

[0036] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, the massage mechanism 200 includes a walking frame 201 and a kneading assembly 202. The kneading assembly 202 includes a massage arm 2021, a kneading motor 2022, and a kneading shaft 2023. The kneading shaft 2023 is rotatably mounted on the walking frame 201 and has an eccentric mating portion. The massage arm 2021 is rotatably mounted on the mating portion. The rotating shaft of the kneading motor 2022 is driven to engage with the kneading shaft 2023, and the kneading motor 2022 drives the kneading shaft 2023 to rotate, so that the massage arm 2021 swings and massages.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the massage arm 2021 may include multiple kneading arms connected at angles to form multiple massage points. Massage heads 2024 made of silicone or rubber can be mounted on the massage arm 2021. These soft materials contact the user's body, and massage is performed in conjunction with the swinging motion of the massage arm 2021. Specifically, the massage arm 2021 is mounted on a mating part of the kneading shaft 2023. Due to the eccentric arrangement of the mating part, when the kneading shaft 2023 rotates, the eccentric mating part drives the massage arm 2021 to swing, achieving a kneading massage effect. Optionally, in some possible embodiments, a rotary bearing is provided between the massage arm 2021 and the mating part to improve the smoothness of the massage arm 2021's swing and enhance massage comfort.

[0038] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, the massage mechanism 200 further includes a tapping component 203, which includes a tapping shaft 2031, a tapping connecting rod 2032, a tapping motor 2033, and an eccentric bearing. The tapping shaft 2031 is rotatably mounted on the walking frame 201 and is driven by the rotating shaft of the tapping shaft 2033. The eccentric bearing is mounted on the tapping shaft 2031. One end of the tapping connecting rod 2032 is hinged to the eccentric bearing, and the other end of the tapping connecting rod 2032 is connected to the ball head of the massage arm 2021.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the walking frame 201 is equipped with a tapping shaft 2031 and a tapping motor 2033. A plate bearing is mounted on the tapping shaft 2031, and the eccentric bearing is connected to the massage arm 2021 via a tapping connecting rod 2032. When the tapping motor 2033 drives the tapping shaft 2031 to rotate, it drives the massage arm 2021 to vibrate and tap through the tapping connecting rod 2032. The entire tapping assembly 203 has a simple structure, is easy to maintain, and is independently driven by the tapping motor 2033, facilitating adjustment and improving the massage effect.

[0040] Optionally, in some possible embodiments, a pulley drive assembly is provided at the connection between the striking motor 2033 and the striking shaft 2031, and the rotating shaft of the striking motor 2033 is driven to be connected to the striking shaft 2031 via the pulley drive assembly.

[0041] The pulley drive assembly allows for adjustment of the output speed of the striking motor 2033, ensuring that the striking frequency meets usage requirements. Simultaneously, the pulley drive assembly features overload protection to ensure the safety of the striking motor 2033.

[0042] This application embodiment also provides a massage chair, which includes a base 600, a backrest 700 and a massage device as described above, wherein the backrest 700 is rotatably connected to the base 600 and the massage device is disposed on the backrest 700.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the backrest 700 is rotatably connected to the base 600, and the angle between the backrest 700 and the base 600 can be adjusted, allowing the user to easily adjust the backrest 700 to the desired tilt angle. A massage device is mounted on the backrest 700. When the user leans against the backrest 700, their body comes into contact with the massage mechanism 200. Multiple independently moving and massaging massage mechanisms 200 combine to form various massage modes, improving massage comfort and effectiveness.

[0044] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
