[0002] Massage therapy after exercise or when the body is sore can relax muscles and tendons, promote blood circulation, and achieve a rapid recovery effect. Among common massage tools, neck and back massagers are the most common. The neck and back have physiological curves, which requires a certain degree of elasticity and flexibility from the massage head. When using a robotic arm to massage the back, a massage head is installed on the robotic arm. Existing massage heads are generally made of hard plastic and have only a single circular structure. The surface of the hard plastic massage head is fixed to the massage base. However, the comfort level of this type of structure is difficult to meet the user's acupressure requirements. Sometimes it is necessary to massage a certain acupoint or the entire back, which requires greater pressure. In some areas of the body, a smaller area of ​​pressure is needed, while in other areas, a larger area of ​​inclined pressure and friction are needed. In order to achieve a massage effect that is closer to that of a massage therapist, the massage head needs to be set up as closely as possible to mimic the structure of the human hand.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an elbow massage head to improve the functionality and massage effect of the massage head. Utility Model Content

[0024] To more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will provide further details.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-2 This utility model proposes an elbow massage head, including a massage end 1, a connecting post 2, and a mounting plate 3 for external fixation. One end of the massage end 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting post 2, and the other end of the connecting post 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 3. The other end of the massage end 1 is provided with an elbow-shaped massage end 11. The material of the elbow-shaped massage end 11 can be one of plastic, soft rubber, silicone, rubber, or metal.

[0027] In this embodiment, one end of the connecting column 2 is fixed to the massage head 1, and the other end of the connecting column 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 3, so that the present invention can be fixed to the robotic arm for use via the mounting plate 3. The robotic arm can drive the massage head 1 to rotate or swing in multiple directions to adjust the massage posture at multiple angles. Since the massage head 1 is provided with an elbow-shaped massage end 11, which is made to imitate the shape of a human elbow when bent, it can simulate the human elbow for massage during use. When the robotic arm drives the massage head 1 to massage the user, the present invention will be set up upside down. The robotic arm can then drive the elbow-shaped massage end 11 to make adaptive angle adjustments according to the preset massage program. When performing acupoint massage, the robotic arm can move the elbow-shaped massage end... 11 is adjusted to a vertical setting. When the elbow-shaped massage end 11 is in a vertical state, the most pointed part of the elbow-shaped massage end 11 is used, which is similar to the protruding bone part when the human elbow is bent. Then, it presses the user's acupoints. This can accurately and in a small area press the acupoints of the human body. When performing the massage step, the robotic arm can adjust the elbow-shaped massage end 11 to a preset tilt setting, such as tilting at 25 degrees. Since the elbow-shaped massage end 11 is similar to the structure of the human elbow when it is bent, the side part of the elbow-shaped massage end 11 will face down. Then, the user is massaged by the side slope of the elbow-shaped massage end 11. During the massage, it is equivalent to the area around the protruding bone part of the elbow. This area is relatively smooth, which is convenient for massage and large-area pressing, making it convenient and practical.

[0028] In summary, this elbow massage head can work in conjunction with a robotic arm to provide multifunctional massage, effectively improving the functionality and massage effect of the massage head.

The second arc-shaped end 113 is located on the other side of the pressing tip 111 and is inclinedly connected to the pressing tip 111. The pressing tip 111 is similar to the protruding bone part when the human elbow is bent. When pressing with the pressing tip 111, the area of ​​force application is small, which can accurately press the acupoints. The arc of the first arc-shaped end 112 is larger than that of the second arc-shaped end 113, mainly to simulate the arc surface formed by the muscles when the elbow is bent, so that the robotic arm can simulate the elbow to massage when in use. The first arc-shaped end 112 and the second arc-shaped end 113 can realize the massage and large-area pressing of the user by the robotic arm, which improves the functionality of the elbow-shaped massage end 11.
