Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of health care device technology, and in particular to a massage component, massage device and massage equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Massage devices, as health care instruments to relieve or eliminate physical fatigue, are becoming increasingly popular due to their flexibility and convenience. To achieve better massage effects, manufacturers often design targeted massage devices based on the structural characteristics of different parts of the body, such as neck massage devices, waist massage devices, and other types of massage devices.

[0003] With increasingly more people spending long hours in their work and daily lives, discomfort in the neck, shoulders, or lower back is common. However, most massage devices in the market are not only complex in assembly and expensive to produce, but also offer limited massage techniques, harsh application of massage methods, and unsatisfactory results. Utility Model Content

[0004] This disclosure provides a massage component, massage device, and massage equipment, which not only has a simple structure but also enriches massage techniques and enhances massage effects.

[0005] Specifically, this disclosure is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a massage component is provided, including a massage arm, a massage head, and a drive assembly. The massage arm has a rotating portion and a mounting portion connected to the rotating portion, and the massage arm is positioned along the length of the rotating portion toward the mounting portion. The massage head is connected to the mounting portion. The drive assembly is connected to the rotating portion and is also connected to another massage component. During rotation of the drive assembly, the rotating portion rotates with the drive assembly to drive the massage head to reciprocate along the length of the massage arm, and there is relative movement between the other massage component and the massage component provided in this application.

[0007] The technical solution will be further explained below:

[0008] In one embodiment, the driving component is a cam. The cam has a rotating connecting part that is rotatably connected to the rotating part and an eccentric connecting part that is fixedly connected to the rotating connecting part. The eccentric connecting part is used to connect another massage component. During the rotation of the cam, the rotating part rotates with the rotating connecting part to drive the massage head to reciprocate along the length of the massage arm. The eccentric connecting part rotates eccentrically relative to the rotating connecting part, so that there is relative motion between the massage component and the other massage component.

[0009] In one embodiment, the cam has a mounting hole that passes through the rotating connecting part and the eccentric connecting part. The mounting hole is coaxial with the rotating connecting part and eccentric with the eccentric connecting part. The mounting hole is used to mount a drive rod to drive the cam to rotate.

[0010] In one embodiment, the eccentric connection portion protrudes from the rotating connection portion along the axial direction of the mounting hole.

[0011] In one embodiment, the rotating connection portion is provided with a plug-in portion that communicates with and is coaxially arranged with the mounting hole, and the rotating portion is provided with a plug-in mating portion that is rotatably connected to the plug-in portion.

[0012] In one embodiment, the rotating part is provided with a connecting hole that communicates with and is coaxially arranged with the mounting hole for mounting the drive rod.

[0013] In one embodiment, the drive assembly includes a drive motor, the output shaft of which is connected to the rotating part to drive the massage component to move.

[0014] In one embodiment, the massage arm is further provided with a sliding limit portion for connecting another massage component to limit the relative movement distance between the two massage components.

[0015] In one embodiment, the sliding limit portion includes a groove disposed along the length direction of the massage arm.

[0016] In one embodiment, the massage arm is further provided with a swing limiting part connected to the rotating part. During the rotation of the rotating part, the swing limiting part swings back and forth along the rotation axis of the rotating part, so that the massage head moves closer to or away from the massage area, thereby adjusting the squeezing force between the massage head and the massage area.

[0017] In one embodiment, the massage head includes at least one massage part connected to the massage arm. The at least one massage part includes a first massage part and a second massage part connected to the first massage part. During the rotation of the rotating part, the swing limiting part swings back and forth so that the first massage part and the second massage part alternately squeeze the massage area.

[0018] In one embodiment, the width of the massage arm increases in the direction from the rotating part to the mounting part.

[0019] In one embodiment, one of the rotating part and the rotating connection part is provided as a rotating hole, and the other is provided with a shaft that is rotatably connected to the rotating hole.

[0020] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a massage device is provided, including a transmission assembly and any of the aforementioned massage components. The transmission assembly includes a rotating shaft and a drive rod movably connected to the rotating shaft, the drive rod being connected to the drive assembly. During the rotation of the rotating shaft, the drive rod drives the drive assembly to rotate around the rotating shaft, thereby driving the massage component to move.

[0021] According to a third aspect of the present disclosure, a massage device is provided, including a carrier, a drive assembly, and the aforementioned massage device. Two massage devices are provided, including a first massage device and a second massage device. The drive assembly includes a rotary motor disposed on the carrier and a transmission mechanism connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor. The rotating shafts of the first and second massage devices are respectively connected to the transmission mechanism, such that the rotary motor drives the rotating shafts of the first and second massage devices to rotate, thereby enabling the first and second massage devices to massage the shoulders and neck respectively.

[0022] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this disclosure have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] The massage component disclosed herein can be connected to another massage component while simultaneously connected to its rotating part via a drive assembly. The drive assembly can also be connected to a transmission component such as a motor shaft or drive rod of the massage device to cause the drive assembly to rotate. During the rotation of the drive assembly, the drive massage arm drives the massage head to knead and massage the massage area; the massage head can reciprocate along the length of the massage arm. Simultaneously, the drive assembly can cause the massage components to have relative motion with respect to other massage components, enabling each massage component to move closer to or further away from each other while rotating, thus performing a combined kneading and pinching massage on the massage area.

[0024] Thus, the massage component provided by this disclosure only requires connecting the drive assembly to the drive component during assembly. The massage component of this disclosure has a simple structure, is easy to process and manufacture, and is easy to assemble, thereby reducing production costs. At the same time, during the massage process, the drive assembly can drive the massage component to have relative movement with respect to other massage components, enabling a combination of kneading and pinching massage on the massage area, thereby enriching massage techniques and improving the massage effect.

[0025] Understandably, the massage area can include the neck, shoulders, back, waist, or legs, etc. The massage device provided in this disclosure can be applied to any area that a user needs to massage, such as the neck, shoulders, neck and shoulder, or waist. This disclosure does not impose any limitations. The above general description and the following detailed description are merely exemplary and explanatory and do not limit this disclosure.

Detailed Implementation

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementations") of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described herein with reference to the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0040] If this disclosure uses terms relating to directional indications or positional relationships (e.g., up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, height, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationships and movements between components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications or positional relationships will also change accordingly. Furthermore, terms such as "first" and "second" in this disclosure are used only for descriptive convenience and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0041] Massage devices, as health care instruments for relieving or eliminating physical fatigue, are becoming increasingly popular due to their flexibility and convenience. To achieve better massage effects, manufacturers typically design targeted massage devices based on the structural characteristics of different parts of the body, such as neck massagers, waist massagers, and other types of massage equipment. Currently, there are numerous types and brands of massage devices available, offering consumers a wide range of choices. Therefore, how to win consumer favor and enhance product competitiveness has become an increasingly important issue for massage device manufacturers.

[0042] Taking massage equipment as an example, a massage device is a type of device specifically designed for the neck and shoulder curves. It can massage and relax the shoulder and neck muscles separately, relieving neck and shoulder fatigue. Currently, people are increasingly spending long hours sitting at desks or looking down at their phones, which easily leads to neck and shoulder discomfort, resulting in a growing market demand for massage equipment.

[0043] However, in most related technologies, the massage components and shoulder massage components of massage devices move independently. For example, the massage component only kneads and massages the neck muscles by rotating on its own, and the shoulder massage component only kneads and massages the shoulder muscles by rotating on its own. This results in the neck and shoulder muscles being kneaded and massaged separately, failing to achieve the kneading and pressing massage of the neck and shoulder muscles with relative movement. In other words, the massage devices in these technologies cannot simulate the kneading and pressing massage of the neck and shoulders by the thumb and forefinger of a human hand. Furthermore, although some related technologies provide massage devices that can achieve neck and shoulder kneading and pressing massage, the assembly structure between the massage components and shoulder massage components of these devices is very complex. It not only requires numerous assembly parts but also demands high assembly precision, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and results in high production costs.

[0044] Based on this, the present disclosure provides a massage component that is not only simple in structure and easy to manufacture, but also easy to assemble with other massage components to achieve kneading massage of the massage area and improve the massage effect.

[0045] The massage component 100 provided in this disclosure will now be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the massage component 100 according to one embodiment. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The front view of the massage component 100 shown. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The image shows a rear view of the massage component 100. This disclosure provides a massage component 100, including a massage arm 110, a massage head 120, and a drive assembly. The massage arm 110 has a rotating portion 111 and a mounting portion 112 connected to the rotating portion 111, with the length direction of the massage arm 110 pointing from the rotating portion 111 towards the mounting portion 112. The massage head 120 is connected to the mounting portion 112. The drive assembly is connected to the rotating portion 111 and also connected to another massage component 200. During rotation of the drive assembly, the rotating portion 111 rotates with the drive assembly to drive the massage head 120 to reciprocate along the length direction of the massage arm 110, and there is relative movement between the other massage component 200 and the massage component 100.

[0047] The massage component disclosed herein can be connected to another massage component while simultaneously connected to its rotating part via a drive assembly. The drive assembly can also be connected to a transmission component such as a motor shaft or drive rod of the massage device to rotate the drive assembly. During the rotation of the drive assembly, the rotating connection drives the massage arm to move the massage head to knead and massage the massage area. The massage head can reciprocate along the length of the massage arm. Simultaneously, the drive assembly can cause the massage components to have relative motion with respect to other massage components, enabling each massage component to move closer to or further away from each other while rotating, thus performing a combined kneading and pinching massage on the massage area.

[0048] Thus, the massage component provided by this disclosure only requires connecting the drive assembly to the drive component during assembly. The massage component of this disclosure has a simple structure, is easy to process and manufacture, and is easy to assemble, thereby reducing production costs. At the same time, during the massage process, the drive assembly can drive the massage component to have relative movement with respect to other massage components, enabling a combination of kneading and pinching massage on the massage area, thereby enriching massage techniques and improving the massage effect.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the driving component is a cam 130. The cam has a rotating connecting portion 131 connected to the rotating portion 111 and an eccentric connecting portion 132 eccentrically disposed with respect to the rotating connecting portion 131. The eccentric connecting portion 132 is used to connect another massage component 200. During the rotation of the cam 130, the rotating portion 111 rotates with the rotating connecting portion 131 to drive the massage head 120 to reciprocate along the length direction of the massage arm 110, and the eccentric connecting portion 132 rotates eccentrically relative to the rotating connecting portion 131, so that there is relative movement between the massage component 100 and the other massage component 200.

[0050] It should be noted that the massage component 100, as part of the massage device 1, can be independently configured for processing and assembly. The massage head 120 is used to contact the massage area, the cam 130 is used to connect to the massage device 1 and transmit power, and the massage arm 110 is connected between the cam 130 and the massage head 120 to drive the massage head 120 to massage the area. Furthermore, the cam 130 can also be used to connect another massage component 200, so that the relative movement between the massage component 100 and the other massage component 200 is achieved through the eccentric movement of the cam 130, thereby coordinating to achieve a kneading massage effect on the massage area.

[0051] Specifically, taking a neck massager 100 and a shoulder massager 200 as examples, during the assembly of the massager 100, the rotating connecting part 131 of the cam 130 connects to the rotating part 111 of the massage arm 110, and the eccentric connecting part 132 can be connected to the shoulder massager 200. Simultaneously, either the rotating connecting part 131 or the eccentric connecting part 132 of the cam 130 can also be connected to the transmission assembly 300, such as the motor shaft or drive rod 320, of the massage device 1 to drive the cam 130 to rotate. As an example, the cam 130 has a height along the Z direction shown in the figure, and the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 may have a height difference in the Z direction. Thus, when one of the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 is connected to the transmission assembly 300, such as the motor shaft or drive rod 320, and driven to rotate, the other will rotate eccentrically.

[0052] The massage arm 110 can extend in the direction shown in X in the figure to have a length in the direction shown in X in the figure. The rotating part 111 is used to connect the cam 130, and the mounting part 112 can be used to connect with the massage head 120 so that the massage arm 110 transmits power between the cam 130 and the massage head 120, thereby driving the massage head 120 to move and massage the neck.

[0053] After the massage head 120, massage arm 110, and cam 130 are connected to form the massage component 100, the massage component 100 can use the cam 130 as a rotation fulcrum. When the cam 130 rotates, the rotating connection 131 drives the massage arm 110 to drive the massage head 120 to knead and massage the neck. The massage head 120 can reciprocate along the length direction of the massage arm 110 (as shown by X in the figure). For example, the massage head 120 along... Figure 1 The direction indicated by arrow a forms a circular or non-circular motion to knead and massage the neck. The eccentric connecting part 132 can drive the shoulder massage component 200 to rotate and knead and massage the shoulder. Due to the relative eccentric motion between the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132, the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 can also have relative motion. That is, while the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 rotate, they can also move closer to or further away from each other, performing a combination of kneading and pinching massage on the neck and shoulders.

[0054] Thus, when assembling the massage component 100 provided in this disclosure, it is only necessary to connect the shoulder massage component 200 to the eccentric connecting part 132 and then connect the cam 130 to the drive component. During the massage process, the cam 130 rotates, which in turn drives the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 to rotate through the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132, thereby generating relative movement between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200. In this way, the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 can knead and massage the neck and shoulders respectively. When the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 are close to each other, they can also apply a pinching action to the neck and shoulders. When the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 are far apart, the pinching action on the neck and shoulders is released, thereby realizing a combination of kneading and pinching massage for the neck and shoulders, enriching the massage techniques and improving the massage effect.

[0055] Therefore, the massage component 100 provided in this disclosure can be assembled with the shoulder massage component 200 to achieve kneading massage of the shoulders and neck, enriching the massage techniques. Furthermore, the massage component 100 of this disclosure is easy to manufacture due to its simple structure and easy to assemble, thereby reducing production costs.

[0056] Furthermore, the massage component 100 provided in this disclosure can be applied to neck massage devices, massage devices 1 with neck massage, or full-body massage devices with neck massage, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any limitations.

[0057] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cam 130 according to one embodiment. Figure 5 for Figure 4 The diagram shows the structure of cam 130 from another perspective. Figure 6 This is an exploded view of the structure of the massage component 100 shown in one embodiment. In some embodiments, to facilitate the rotation of the cam 130, the cam 130 is provided with a mounting hole 133 that passes through the rotating connecting portion 131 and the eccentric connecting portion 132. The mounting hole 133 is coaxially arranged with respect to the rotating connecting portion 131 and eccentrically arranged with respect to the eccentric connecting portion 132. The mounting hole 133 is used to mount the drive rod 320 to drive the cam 130 to rotate.

[0058] It should be noted that the mounting hole 133 can be opened along the Y direction shown in the figure, so as to mount the cam 130 onto the transmission component 300 such as the motor shaft or drive rod 320, thereby driving the cam 130 to rotate. At the same time, the rotating connection part 131 and the eccentric connection part 132 can be respectively mounted on the motor shaft or drive rod 320 to increase the connection area with the cam 130, which can improve the torque transmission effect and avoid stress concentration on the transmission component 300 after assembly.

[0059] As an example, the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 can be connected and arranged along the Y direction shown in the figure. The rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 can each be cylindrical, and after connection, they have a height difference along the Z direction shown in the figure, such that the axes of the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 are spaced apart along the Z direction. Thus, when the mounting hole 133 passes through the rotating connecting part 131 and the eccentric connecting part 132 sequentially along the axial direction of the rotating connecting part 131, the mounting hole 133 can be coaxially arranged relative to the rotating connecting part 131, and eccentrically arranged relative to the eccentric connecting part 132. In this way, when the motor shaft or drive rod 320 passes through the mounting hole 133, the rotating connecting part 131 can rotate coaxially with the motor shaft or drive rod 320, while the eccentric connecting part 132 rotates eccentrically, driving the shoulder massage component 200 to generate relative movement with the massage component 100.

[0060] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a cam 130 according to one embodiment. Figure 5 for Figure 4 The diagram shows the structure of cam 130 from another perspective. Figure 6 This is an exploded view of the structure of a massage component 100 according to one embodiment. In some embodiments, to facilitate the installation of the shoulder massage component 200, an eccentric connecting portion 132 protrudes from the rotating connecting portion 131 along the axial direction of the mounting hole 133, so that the shoulder massage component 200 can be sleeved on the eccentric connecting portion 132.

[0061] It should be noted that when the eccentric connecting part 132 protrudes relative to the rotating connecting part 131, the shoulder massage component 200 may be provided with an assembly hole for mounting onto the eccentric connecting part 132, simplifying the assembly structure. Furthermore, after the eccentric connecting part 132 passes through the mounting hole 133, in the direction shown in the figure (Z), the distance from the mounting hole 133 to the top of the eccentric connecting part 132 is greater than the distance from the mounting hole 133 to the bottom of the eccentric connecting part 132. Thus, during the rotation of the eccentric connecting part 132, the top and bottom of the eccentric connecting part 132 alternately move back and forth on the upper and lower sides of the mounting hole 133, causing the distance from the mounting hole 133 to each edge of the eccentric connecting part 132 to change continuously. As a result, after the shoulder massage component 200 is fitted onto the eccentric connecting part 132, the eccentric connecting part 132 can drive the shoulder massage component 200 to make an eccentric movement relative to the mounting hole 133, so as to realize the relative movement between the shoulder massage component 200 and the massage component 100.

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6This is an exploded view of the structure of a massage component 100 according to one embodiment. In some embodiments, to facilitate the connection between the cam 130 and the massage arm 110, the rotatable connecting part 131 is provided with a plug-in part 134 that communicates with and is coaxially arranged with the mounting hole 133, and the rotating part 111 is provided with a plug-in mating part 116 that is rotatably connected to the plug-in part 134.

[0063] It should be noted that the plug-in part 134 can be configured to be along... Figure 4 The groove in the opposite direction of the Y-axis can be configured to be along the... Figure 4 The column protruding in the opposite direction of the Y-axis is inserted into the groove to assemble the massage arm 110 and the cam 130. At the same time, the insertion and engagement of the cam 130 and the massage arm 110 can reduce the installation size of the cam 130 in the axial direction, thereby reducing the installation space of the massage component 100 and improving the structural compactness of the massage device.

[0064] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating part 111 is provided with a connecting hole 113 that communicates with and is coaxially arranged with the mounting hole 133 for mounting the drive rod 320. In this way, both the cam 130 and the massage arm 110 can be integrated onto the drive rod 320, so that the drive rod 320 can drive the cam 130 and the massage arm 110 to rotate, thereby distributing the load on the cam 130 and improving the reliability of the transmission.

[0065] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, Figure 6 This is an exploded view of the structure of the massage component 100 shown in one embodiment. Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 according to one embodiment. In some embodiments, during the rotation of the cam 130, in order to prevent the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 from slipping off, the rotating connection portion 131 is provided with an axial limiting portion 135 that protrudes radially along the mounting hole 133 to limit the axial movement distance of the massage component 100 and / or the shoulder massage component 200 along the mounting hole 133.

[0066] It should be noted that the axial limiting part 135 may protrude radially along the mounting hole 133 at a certain position on the rotating connection part 131. For example, the axial limiting part 135 may protrude radially along the mounting hole 133 at a certain position on the rotating connection part 131. Figure 7The axial limiting portion 135 protrudes from the rotating connecting portion 131 in the direction shown by Z, forming a partition between the rotating connecting portion 131 and the eccentric connecting portion 132 to prevent axial movement. Alternatively, the axial limiting portion 135 may also protrude radially from the mounting hole 133 at various points around the circumference of the rotating connecting portion 131, effectively providing a positioning ring around the rotating connecting portion 131; this disclosure does not limit this. In some embodiments, to facilitate the limiting of the shoulder massage member 200, the massage member 100 further includes a limiting ring fixedly assembled with the eccentric drive member 220. The limiting ring and the axial limiting portion 135 are spaced apart to form a limiting structure that restricts the axial movement of the shoulder massage member.

[0067] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, Figure 6 This is an exploded view of the structure of the massage component 100 shown in one embodiment. Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of a massage component 100 and a shoulder massage component 200 according to one embodiment. In some embodiments, in order to limit the relative range of motion between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200, the massage arm 110 is further provided with a sliding limiting part 114, which is used to connect the shoulder massage component 200.

[0068] It should be noted that, driven by the cam 130, the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 can move relative to each other. When the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 are slidably connected, the relative movement distance between them can be limited. As an example, the sliding limit part 114 includes a groove, and the shoulder massage component 200 can be provided with a slider 210 slidably connected to the groove. Inserting the slider 210 into the groove achieves the slidable connection between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200. During the rotation of the cam 130, due to the relative movement between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200, the slider 210 can move along the groove. The length of the groove limits the movement distance of the slider 210. Therefore, after the slider 210 moves to its limit position within the groove, the relative movement between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 is limited, maintaining a fixed angle between them. As the cam 130 rotates eccentrically, the slider 210 can move back and forth in the groove, thereby changing the connection angle between the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 to knead and massage the shoulders and neck.

[0069] Specifically, with Figure 7Taking the illustrated state as an example, during the eccentric rotation of cam 130, when the slider 210 of the shoulder massage component 200 is in the right position of the slide groove, the shoulder massage component 200 moves closer to the massage component 100, thereby reducing the angle between the shoulder massage component 200 and the massage component 100, thus applying pressure to the shoulders and neck. When the slider 210 is in the left position of the slide groove, the shoulder massage component 200 moves away from the massage component 100, thereby increasing the angle between the shoulder massage component 200 and the massage component 100, thus releasing the pressure on the shoulders and neck. Thus, during the eccentric rotation of cam 130, the slider 210 moves back and forth between the left and right positions of the slide groove to adjust the relative movement distance between the shoulder massage component 200 and the massage component 100, thereby achieving a kneading massage of the shoulders and neck.

[0070] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the groove can be arranged along the length of the massage arm 110, so that when the slider 210 is inserted into the groove, the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 can be assembled at an angle, so that when the user wears the massage device 1, the massage component 100 corresponds to the neck muscles and the shoulder massage component 200 corresponds to the shoulder muscles.

[0071] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, to enrich the massage techniques of the massage component 100, the massage arm 110 is also provided with a swing limiting part 115 connected to the rotating part 111. During the rotation of the rotating part 111, the swing limiting part 115 swings back and forth along the rotation axis 310 of the rotating part 111, so that the massage head 120 moves closer to or further away from the neck, thereby adjusting the squeezing force between the massage head 120 and the neck.

[0072] It should be noted that the rotation axis 310 of the rotating part 111 can be along... Figure 7 The direction shown in the middle Y is set. Accordingly, the swing limit part 115 can move along the direction shown in the middle Y. Figure 7 The massage member 100 oscillates back and forth in the direction shown by Y. The oscillation limiting part 115 protrudes from the massage arm 110 along its length (as shown by X in the figure). Thus, the massage member 100 uses the rotating part 111 as a fulcrum, and the massage head 120 and the oscillation limiting part 115 are mounted on both sides of the rotating part 111, forming an approximate lever structure. When the cam 130 rotates, the massage member 100 drives the massage head 120 to perform a kneading massage on the neck. For example, the massage head 120 performs a circular or non-circular motion in the direction shown by arrow a in the figure, kneading the neck. Simultaneously, the oscillation limiting part 115 oscillates back and forth in the direction shown by Y in the figure, causing the massage head 120 to also have a movement trajectory in the direction shown by arrow b in the figure, allowing the massage head 120 to move closer to or further away from the neck to adjust the pressure on the neck.

[0073] Understandably, the swing of the swing limiting part 115 is not limited to power mechanisms that directly drive reciprocating movement, such as pneumatic rods, hydraulic rods, or linear motors, but also includes power mechanisms that indirectly achieve reciprocating movement, such as gear and rack mechanisms or lead screw and nut mechanisms. This disclosure does not impose any limitations. Understandably, the swing limiting part 115 can also be slidably connected to the massage housing or other accessories of the massage device. That is, a groove is provided on the massage housing or other accessories of the massage device, and the swing limiting part 115 can slide back and forth within the groove, thus guiding the swing of the swing limiting part 115 through the groove. This disclosure does not impose any limitations in this regard.

[0074] Thus, the massage component 100 can rotate and oscillate to have a composite trajectory of movement in the directions shown by arrow a and arrow b, thereby enriching the massage techniques for the neck. It is understood that the massage head 120 can form circular or non-circular motion in the direction shown by arrow b in the figure, and this disclosure does not impose any limitations.

[0075] Furthermore, when the massage component 100 moves, the shoulder massage component 200 connected to the eccentric connecting portion 132 can also be driven to swing in the direction shown by arrow a in the figure, so as to move closer to or further away from the massage component 100, thereby forming a kneading massage action on the shoulders and neck. Moreover, when the swing limiting portion 115 drives the massage component 100 to swing back and forth in the Y direction, the shoulder massage component 200 can also be driven to swing along with it, thereby enriching the massage techniques for the shoulder muscles.

[0076] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, to further enrich the massage techniques, the massage head 120 includes at least one massage portion connected to the massage arm 110. The at least one massage portion includes a first massage portion 121 and a second massage portion 122 connected to the first massage portion 121. The second massage portion 122 is positioned closer to the shoulder massage component 200 than the first massage portion 121. During the rotation of the rotating portion 111, the swing limiting portion 115 swings back and forth, causing the first massage portion 121 and the second massage portion 122 to alternately press against the neck.

[0077] It should be noted that the first massage unit 121 and the second massage unit 122 can be arranged along the direction shown in Z in the figure. During the rotation of the cam 130, the swing limit unit 115 also swings back and forth along the direction shown in Y in the figure, so that the massage component 100 can have a composite trajectory of movement along the directions shown in arrow a and arrow b. Thus, when the first massage unit 121 moves towards the neck to compress the neck, the second massage unit 122 can move away from the neck. When the first massage unit 121 moves away from the neck, the second massage unit 122 can move towards the neck to compress the neck. By using the alternating reciprocating movement of the first massage unit 121 and the second massage unit 122, the neck can be flexibly kneaded and massaged, avoiding a stiff massage technique. For example, the first massage unit 121 can knead and massage the part of the neck near the head, and the second massage unit 122 can knead and massage the part of the neck near the shoulders. Moreover, the two massage units can alternate between light and heavy massage, which can simulate the human hand massage method and improve the massage effect.

[0078] In some embodiments, to fully conform to the massage area, the first massage portion 121 and the second massage portion 122 can be arranged according to the curve of the neck to fully conform to the neck and massage various acupoints on the neck to relieve muscle fatigue. At the same time, the first massage portion 121 and the second massage portion 122 are smoothly connected to improve aesthetics and wearing comfort.

[0079] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the width of the massage arm 110 increases along the direction from the rotating portion 111 to the mounting portion 112. As an example, the width direction of the massage arm 110 can be set along the direction shown in the Z figure, and the length direction of the massage arm 110 can be set along the direction shown in the X figure. The width of the massage arm 110 can be along... Figure 7 The width increases in the opposite direction as shown by X. Thus, the side of the massage arm 110 connected to the massage head 120 is wider, which can accommodate the massage and compression of the massage head 120 on the neck muscles, thereby improving the support strength for the massage head 120. At the same time, the width of the side of the massage arm 110 connected to the cam is narrower, which reduces the installation space on the transmission side and avoids motion interference.

[0080] In some embodiments, to facilitate the connection between the cam and the massage arm 110, one of the rotating part 111 and the rotating connecting part 131 may be provided as a rotating hole, and the other may be provided with a shaft rotatably connected to the rotating hole. In this way, the cam and the massage arm 110 can be driven to rotate without the need for an additional drive rod 320. As an example, the rotating part 111 may be provided with a rotating hole, and the cam may be provided with a camshaft that mates with the rotating hole. Further details are omitted in this disclosure.

[0081] Of course, in other embodiments, in order to facilitate the movement of the massage component, the drive assembly also includes a drive motor, and the output shaft of the drive motor can be connected to the rotating part for transmission to drive the movement of the massage component. This disclosure does not impose any limitations.

[0082] In addition to the massage component 100 described above, this disclosure also provides a massage device 10, which will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0083] See Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a massage device 10 according to one embodiment. The massage device 10 provided in this disclosure includes a transmission assembly 300, a shoulder massage component 200, and a massage component 100 of any of the above embodiments. The transmission assembly 300 includes a rotating shaft 310 and a drive rod 320 movably connected to the rotating shaft 310. The drive rod 320 is connected to a rotating connection portion 131, and the shoulder massage component 200 is connected to an eccentric connection portion 132. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 310, the drive rod 320 drives the rotating component 111 to rotate around the axis 311 of the rotating shaft 310, and the eccentric connection portion 132 moves eccentrically relative to the axis 311 of the rotating shaft 310, so that the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 cooperate to form a kneading motion.

[0084] It should be noted that the axis 311 of the rotating shaft 310 can be along... Figure 8 The pivot point is indicated by a dashed line. The pivot 310 can be used to connect to a motor shaft or gear mechanism, etc., to drive the pivot 310 to rotate. The drive rod 320 is used to integrate the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200. The drive rod 320 is also connected to the pivot 310 to transmit torque to the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200. Furthermore, to facilitate the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 in massaging the neck and shoulder muscles, the drive rod 320 is inclined relative to the pivot 310, and the drive rod 320 is coaxially arranged with the rotating connection part 131 of the cam.

[0085] Thus, when the rotating shaft 310 drives the drive rod 320 to rotate around the axis 311 of the rotating shaft 310, the drive rod 320 can drive the cam to rotate, causing the rotating connecting part 131 to drive the massage head 120 to reciprocate along the length of the massage arm 110, so as to knead and massage the neck muscles. At the same time, the eccentric connecting part 132 can drive the shoulder massage component 200 to rotate and move relative to the massage component 100, so that the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 can move closer or further away from each other while rotating, thereby cooperating to achieve a kneading massage of the shoulders and neck, so as to form a massage effect that simulates the tiger's mouth of a human hand.

[0086] In some embodiments, the drive rod 320 can swing relative to the rotating shaft 310, that is, the drive rod 320 is hinged to the rotating shaft 310, so that the included angle between the drive rod 320 and the rotating shaft 310 is variable. Furthermore, the drive rod 320 can also drive the massage component 100 and the shoulder massage component 200 to swing relative to the rotating shaft 310, thereby further enriching the massage techniques. It is understood that the drive rod 320 can be driven by a linkage mechanism, pneumatic or hydraulic transmission, etc., to swing relative to the rotating shaft 310; this disclosure will not elaborate on this aspect.

[0087] In addition, see Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a massage device 1 according to an embodiment. This disclosure also provides a massage device 1, including a support member 20, a drive assembly 30, and the aforementioned massage device 10. Two massage devices 10 are provided, including a first massage device 10 and a second massage device 10. The drive assembly 30 includes a rotary motor 31 disposed on the support member 20 and a transmission mechanism 32 connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor 31. The rotating shafts 310 of the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 are respectively connected to the transmission mechanism 32, so that the rotary motor 31 drives the rotating shafts 310 of the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 to rotate, thereby allowing the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 to massage the shoulders and neck respectively.

[0088] It should be noted that the support member 20 is used to support the assembly of the first massage device 10, the second massage device 10, and the drive assembly 30. The shape of the support member 20 can be set according to assembly requirements, and this disclosure does not impose any limitations. After the user wears the massage device 1, the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 can be worn on both sides of the human neck to correspond to the neck muscles and shoulder muscles on both sides respectively. When the neck massage device is in use, the rotary motor 31 can drive the rotating shaft 310 of the first massage device 10 and the rotating shaft 310 of the second massage device 10 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 32, so that the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 massage the neck and shoulders on both sides of the human neck respectively. It is understood that the transmission mechanism 32 includes gear mechanisms, worm gear mechanisms, or belt drive mechanisms 32, etc., and this disclosure does not impose any limitations.

[0089] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the relative distance between the first massage device 10 and the second massage device 10 of the massage device 1 is adjustable to accommodate people with different neck thicknesses, which will not be elaborated upon in this disclosure.

[0090] It should be noted that when one component is considered to be "transmitting a connection" to another component, the connection can be either detachable or non-detachable, as long as force can be transmitted. For example, shaft connections, sleeve connections, snap-fit ​​connections, integral molding, welding, etc., are all feasible in conventional technologies and can be flexibly selected according to actual application needs. For instance, one component may have a non-cylindrical part, and the other component may have an assembly hole for transmission with the non-cylindrical part. Non-cylindrical parts include polygonal cylinders, elliptical cylinders, semi-cylindrical parts, etc., which will not be elaborated upon in this disclosure. Furthermore, "transmitting a connection" also includes connections via gear mechanisms, chain mechanisms, or belt drives, etc., which are not limited in this disclosure.

[0091] The components included in the "components," "parts," and "mechanisms" of this disclosure can be flexibly combined. They can be modularly produced according to actual needs and assembled as an independent module; or they can be assembled separately to form a module in this device. The division of the above-mentioned components in this disclosure is only one embodiment for ease of reading and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this disclosure. Any technical solution that includes the above-mentioned components and has the same function should be understood as an equivalent technical solution of this disclosure.

[0092] The technical solutions or features described in the above embodiments can be combined or complemented by each other without conflict. The scope of this disclosure is not limited to the precise structures described in the above embodiments and shown in the accompanying drawings. All modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
