Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, and in particular to a multifunctional lower limb acupoint massager. Background Technology
[0002] Modern office workers, white-collar workers, teachers, and other professionals often spend long hours sitting in front of computers or standing for extended periods, leading to poor blood circulation in the lower limbs. This can cause leg pain and discomfort, and even serious symptoms like varicose veins. Furthermore, the feet bear the weight of the entire body and are furthest from the heart, resulting in high blood pressure. As we age, blood vessels deteriorate, and blood clots can gradually form in the feet. Regular foot massage can improve the body's regulatory functions and ultimately boost immunity. Therefore, products such as leg massagers and massage boots have emerged.
[0003] Existing massage boots typically use a one-piece boot body with air bags installed on the boot shaft. Gas is inflated into the air bags to massage the feet. However, one-piece boot bodies have relatively poor adaptability; different users with different foot and leg shapes may find it difficult to use a single size of massage boot, and the massage effect is relatively poor due to relying solely on air bags. Furthermore, when certain areas of the leg, such as injured areas, are inconvenient to massage, or when a specific area needs to be massaged, fully enclosed massage devices cannot target specific areas, making them inflexible in use. Therefore, it is necessary to design a flexible, multi-functional lower limb acupoint massager. Utility Model Content

The massage protrusion 13 is connected to the driving airbag 14, and the driving airbag 14 is connected to the control host 4. The control host 4 can inflate or de-inflate the driving airbag 14 to drive the massage protrusion 13 to perform undulating movements.
[0029] It is worth noting that, to facilitate the wearing of the foot massage unit 1 and the calf massage unit 2, a support plate 16 is provided at the end of the massage base plate 11 away from the foot wrap 12. The shape of the support plate 16 matches the shape of the heel. The leg wrap 21 is connected to the support plate 16 to fix and position the end of the leg wrap 21. A zipper 24 is provided on the vertical side of the leg wrap 21 so that the leg wrap 21 can form a barrel shape to wrap the calf. When wearing, the user first steps on the massage base plate 11, with the heel in contact with the support plate 16, then wraps and fixes the foot with the foot wrap 12, and then aligns the zipper 24 of the leg wrap 21 and pulls the zipper 24 to complete the wearing of the foot massage unit 1 and the calf massage unit 2. Preferably, the zipper 24 is closed by pulling from top to bottom, so that after wearing, the zipper head of the zipper 24 is located below the calf massage unit 2, that is, near the ankle, thereby avoiding the zipper head from affecting the wearing of the knee joint massage unit 3.

The reinforcing layer can be made of high-density nylon or polyester fabric with high tensile strength. The decorative layer can be made of nylon fabric with a napped surface.
[0033] Preferably, both the leg wrap 21 and the knee wrap 31 have at least one storage bag 5 on their inner side. The storage bag 5 can hold a medicine pack 51. The heating layer is connected to the control host 4 through a wire. The control host 4 can control the heating layer to heat the medicine pack 51, thereby realizing the health care function of hot compress of the medicine pack 51.
[0034] like Figure 7As shown, the knee joint wrap 31 includes two sets of straps 33, one above the other. Both sets of straps 33 are connected by a Velcro structure, and there is a gap between the two sets of straps 33 to facilitate knee bending.
[0035] In this embodiment, four L-shaped massage airbags 32 are used to cover acupoints such as Yinlingquan, Xuehai, Dubi, Liangqiu, and Yinshi at the knee joint. The four L-shaped massage airbags 32 are arranged in an X-shape on the knee band 31. An air tube interface is located in the middle of the X-shape, with the lower end of the interface connected to the four L-shaped massage airbags 32 and the upper end connected to the control unit 4 via an air tube. The control unit 4 contains an air pump that inflates or deflates the massage airbags 32 to achieve the massage function. Preferably, a rigid shell matching the shape of the massage airbag 32 is fitted around its outer side. The rigid shell is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the knee band 31, so that when the massage airbag 32 inflates, it primarily applies force away from the rigid shell, thereby improving the massage effect.
[0036] Preferably, to improve the accuracy of the massage airbag 32, two positioning pieces 34 are provided on the inner side of the knee bandage 31 in this embodiment, with a positioning gap in the middle of the positioning pieces 34.

Then, the foot wrap 12 is used to wrap and fix the sole of the foot. Next, the zipper 24 of the leg wrap 21 is aligned, and the zipper 24 is pulled from top to bottom to complete the wearing of the foot massage unit 1 and the calf massage unit 2. Then, the two positioning pieces 34 on the inside of the knee joint wrap 31 are aligned and pasted with the two sides of the zipper 24, and the knee joint wrap 31 is wrapped and fixed to complete the wearing of the knee joint massage unit 3. Then, according to the acupoint markings 25 on the leg wrap 21, the strap 22 and the vibrating massager are tied together. To facilitate the tying of the strap 22, the strap 22 is preferably made of Velcro. Finally, the driving airbag 14, the vibrating massager, the massage airbag 32, and the heating wire are all connected to the control host 4 to massage the lower limbs. If electrical stimulation of acupoints is required, first attach electrode pads to the acupoints to be stimulated before wearing the device, and then wear the foot massage unit 1, calf massage unit 2, and knee joint massage unit 3 in sequence. The wires of the electrode pads extend along the calf from the position of the knee joint massage unit 3 and are connected to the control host 4.
