Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of massage technology, specifically a massage tool. Background Technology

[0002] As practical experience accumulated, people gradually discovered that certain tools could enhance the effects of massage and reduce the physical exertion of the practitioner. For example, ancient practitioners might have used natural objects such as stones, bones, or wooden sticks as auxiliary tools for massage. Over time, these tools gradually evolved into specially designed massage implements, such as massage hammers and scraping boards.

[0003] Existing massage tools are made of a variety of materials, including wood, jade, ox horn, metal, and plastic. Massage tools made of different materials have different characteristics and effects. For example, jade massage tools are warm and smooth, suitable for the face, while ox horn massage tools have the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, cooling blood and calming the nerves. In terms of craftsmanship, the production of massage tools emphasizes fineness and practicality.

[0004] However, in clinical practice, it has been found that most existing massage balls in massage sticks adopt a fixed structure design. Although they can stimulate acupoints through rotation, the differences in body shape and treatment needs of different individuals place different requirements on the arrangement and combination of massage balls and pressure transmission. Current products cannot achieve dynamic adaptation of treatment parameters through modular adjustment. Medical staff need to frequently change the entire instrument to meet the needs of different patients, which increases the complexity of operation and reduces the efficiency of clinical use. Therefore, we propose a massage tool. Utility Model Content

The connecting plate is movably disposed on the outside of the fixing plate, and a bolt is provided inside the connecting plate. The bolt is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting plate and the fixing plate.

[0016] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0017] By setting a cylindrical pin inside the massage ball, the cylindrical pin can be locked into the corresponding groove during installation to achieve a stable connection. When disassembly is required, simply press the quick-release component, which will drive the truncated cone to move. During the movement, the truncated cone will squeeze the cylindrical pin, thereby causing the massage ball to detach from the massage stick. This allows users to easily replace different massage balls, thus improving the convenience and flexibility of use. Attached Figure Description
