[0022] This application provides an ear acupoint massager. This ear acupoint massager allows for flexible adjustment of the ear hook height through the cooperation of the adjustment slot and positioning block of the adjustment component, thus adapting to various users and achieving wearable massage, avoiding handheld use and resulting in soreness. Simultaneously, the pressing component uses pressing blocks to comprehensively press the auricle, thereby providing overall pressure stimulation to acupoints where vaccaria seeds are attached. The ear acupoint massager is described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of embodiments.
[0023] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment, an ear acupressure massager is provided, comprising: an outer frame 100, with ear hooks 120 at both ends of the outer frame 100; a pressing component 200 is provided inside the ear hook 120, the pressing component 200 including at least a pressing block 220 for pressing acupoints on the ear; an adjustment component 300 is provided between the outer frame 100 and the ear hook 120, the adjustment component 300 including at least an adjustment groove 310 and a positioning block 322 for adjusting and changing the height of the ear hook 120.
[0025] The pressing component 200 includes: a pressing chamber 210 is provided on one side of the ear hook 120, and an electric push rod 211 is provided on the inner wall of the pressing chamber 210; a pressing block 220 is slidably connected inside the pressing chamber 210, and the end of the electric push rod 211 is connected to the pressing block 220.
[0026] The adjustment component 300 includes: a plurality of adjustment slots 310 at the end of the outer frame 100; an adjustment sleeve 320 at the top of the ear hook 120, which is fitted onto the end of the outer frame 100; a positioning spring 321 on the inner wall of the adjustment sleeve 320, and a positioning block 322 at the end of the positioning spring 321, which engages with the adjustment slots 310.
[0027] In use, the ear hook 120 is hung on the ear, and the outer frame 100 supports the overall structure through the ear hook 120. When the pressing component 200 is working, the electric push rod 211 in the pressing chamber 210 on one side of the ear hook 120 extends and retracts, driving the pressing block 220 connected to it to slide within the pressing chamber 210. The sliding pressing block 220 applies pressure to the acupoints on the ear.
[0028] When the height of the ear hook 120 needs to be adjusted, push the adjusting sleeve 320 at the top of the ear hook 120 to move along the end of the outer frame 100. At this time, the positioning block 322 connected to the positioning spring 321 on the inner wall of the adjusting sleeve 320 disengages from the current adjusting groove 310. When it moves to the appropriate position, the positioning block 322 is engaged into the corresponding adjusting groove 310 under the elastic force of the positioning spring 321, thus fixing the height of the ear hook 120.
[0029] Through the above process, the combined structure of the outer frame 100 and the ear hook 120 is stable, the pressing block 220 realizes the pressing function of the ear acupoints, and the adjustment component 300 changes the height of the ear hook 120 through the cooperation of the adjustment groove 310 and the positioning block 322, which effectively improves the adaptability of the massager to different users.
[0030] The pressing block 220 has an air cushion 221 at its top, and the air cushion 221 is filled with high-pressure gas.
[0031] When the pressure block 220 presses on the acupoints on the ear, the air cushion 221 at its tip first contacts the ear. The high-pressure gas inside the air cushion 221 produces a buffering effect during the pressing process, so that the pressure is transmitted to the acupoints more gently.
[0032] The pressing assembly 200 also includes an ear loop 120 with an isolation pad 230 on the side facing the pressing chamber 210, the isolation pad 230 being made of sponge material.
[0033] When the pressing component 200 is working, the isolation pad 230 on the side of the ear hook 120 facing the pressing chamber 210 contacts the ear. The isolation pad 230 separates the components inside the pressing chamber 210 from the ear. At the same time, when the pressing block 220 is pressed, the sponge material isolation pad 230 will deform with the pressing pressure, increasing the contact area with the ear.
[0034] When adjusting the height of the ear hook 120, the spherical positioning block 322, under the action of the positioning spring 321, can slide out of one adjustment slot 310 and engage with another adjustment slot 310 more smoothly, reducing resistance during the adjustment process. 322 is designed with a spherical structure.
[0035] The outer frame 100 is arranged in a "U" shape, and a head pad 110 is provided at the bottom of the outer frame 100.
[0036] When wearing the massager, the "U"-shaped outer frame 100 conforms to the contour of the head, and the bottom head pad 110 contacts the head, providing support for the overall structure and dispersing the pressure of the ear hooks 120 on the ears.
[0037] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions in other embodiments.
[0038] The above provides a detailed description of an ear acupressure massager provided in the embodiments of this application. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the technical solutions and core ideas of this application.
