[0045] Implementations of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The elements and features described in any one of the drawings or embodiments of this utility model may be combined with elements and features shown in one or more other drawings or embodiments. It should be noted that, for clarity, components or processes not related to this utility model and known to qualified persons are omitted from the representation and description in the drawings and description.

[0046] The massager of the current utility model will be described in more detail with the drawings.

[0047] As shown in Figures 1 to 7, the device according to this embodiment comprises a housing (1), a hanging portion (4) connected to the housing for hanging, a drive component fixed inside the housing (1), and a massage sleeve (3) fixed outside the housing (1). The massage sleeve (3) moves relative to the housing (1) under the drive of the drive component.

[0048] In this embodiment, the housing (1) comprises an upper housing (101) and a lower housing (102) forming an enclosure with an internal housing space. Inside, it houses components such as the drive component, the transmission component, the power supply (15), and the control circuit board (12). The connection between the upper housing (101) and the lower housing (102) can be achieved by pressure fastening or other fastening means.

[0049] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the housing (1) is a flat housing with some internal recess space, having an overall concave outer surface resembling a U-shape, allowing the massage sleeve (3) to be positioned in the recessed area of ​​the outer surface of the housing (1). Naturally, the overall outer contour of the housing (1) is not restricted as long as it does not affect the movement of the massage sleeve (3) located outside the housing (1). The housing (1) can also be entirely flat, with the massage sleeve (3) positioned on top of it.

[0050] The upper housing (101) is composed of an upper portion of housing one (1011) and an upper portion of housing two (1012). The missing central portion of the first portion of the upper housing (1011) is filled by the second portion of the upper housing (1012). The combined upper housing (101) has two housing spaces (1013) along the direction of movement of the massage sleeve (3) relative to the housing (1). The method of attaching the first portion of the upper housing (1011) and the second portion of the upper housing (1012) may vary. For example, the upper portion of housing two (1012) may be slightly narrower than the missing central portion of the upper portion of housing one (1011) and slightly longer in the direction of the space between the housings (1013) than the missing central portion of the upper portion of housing one (1011). The upper portion of the housing Two (1012) are fixed to the upper part of housing one (1011) from inside the housing, the projections on the upper part of housing one (1011) engaging with the grooves on the upper part of housing two (1012) to achieve a tight fit perpendicular to the direction of the housing space (1013). The entire surface of the upper housing (1011) has only two housing spaces (1013), which facilitates movement of the massage sleeve (3) relative to the housing (1) under the drive of the drive component.

[0051] To facilitate user handling, the attachment part (4) is preferably positioned symmetrically on both sides of the housing (1), serving as a handle or grip for the massager. The attachment part (4) can be fixed to the housing (1) or flexibly connected to it. Furthermore, the angle between the attachment part (4) and the housing (1) can be adjusted based on the principle of a comfortable grip. The attachment part can be positioned horizontally (as shown in [Fig. 1]), forming a 90-degree angle with the side wall of the housing; or it can be adjusted between 0 and 180 degrees as required.

[0052] Furthermore, the gripping portion (4) can be connected to the housing (1) in various movable ways, thus allowing several degrees of freedom similar to those of a human arm, such as up and down movement, rotation, or forward and backward rotation. The gripping portion (4) can rotate around the housing (1) perpendicular to the axial direction of the housing (1), and can be flipped or folded down onto the lower housing (102). The corresponding area on the lower housing (102) is concave to accommodate the gripping portion (4), which can reduce the product's volume and allow the gripping portion (4) to be used or not as required.

[0053] The latching portion (4) can also rotate 360 ​​degrees in the axial direction of the housing (1). It can also be designed to slide up and down along the outer surface of the housing (1). If required, the latching portion (4) can be designed to be detachable from the housing (1), allowing for easy assembly and disassembly.

[0054] The shape of the hook portion (4) can be designed according to ergonomic principles for a comfortable grip, such as a straight type, an L-shaped type, a C-shaped type, a D-shaped type, or any irregular shape. In this embodiment, an L-shaped handle design is used.

[0055] As shown in Figures 2 to 7, the drive element comprises a motor (2) and a synchronous belt drive mechanism. The motor (2) drives the synchronous belt drive mechanism to move the massage sleeve (3), the movement being a reciprocating motion relative to the housing (1).

[0056] The synchronous belt drive mechanism comprises a synchronous belt (5) and two synchronous belt gears (6, 7). The two gears The synchronous gears are mounted within the synchronous belt (5) and mesh with each other. The first synchronous gear (6) is connected to the motor shaft (201) of the motor (2). The second synchronous gear (7) maintains the same rotational speed, and its gear shaft is fixed to the inner wall of the housing (1). The synchronous belt (5) secures the transmission component (9) to the teeth of the synchronous belt (5) via a pressure plate (10).

[0057] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, in this embodiment, the transmission element (9) is generally U-shaped, with its base in contact with the upper surface of the synchronous belt (5) and comprising two rows of stops (901) spaced at a distance equal to the width of the synchronous belt (5). The pressure plate (10) is positioned perpendicular to the direction of the stops on the lower surface of the synchronous belt (5). This arrangement allows the pressure plate (10) and the transmission component (9) to clamp the synchronous belt (5) from above and below, ensuring that there is no relative movement between them. Driven by the motor (2), the transmission (9) moves synchronously with the synchronous belt (5) and drives the massage sleeve (3) in reciprocating motion.

[0058] To ensure the stability of the reciprocating motion of the massage sleeve (3), the massager housing is also equipped with two guide rods (8). The guide rods (8) are slidably mounted relative to the transmission (9) and are kept parallel to the synchronous belt (5). The two ends of the guide rods (8) are fixed to the inner wall of the upper part of the housing (1012) by means of guide rod fixing components (16). The length of the synchronous belt (5) determines the maximum stroke of the massage sleeve.

[0059] As shown in Figures 2 and 7, the massage sleeve (3) has through openings at both ends, comprising a cylindrical massage body (301) and an inner elastic sleeve (302). The elastic sleeve (302) has openings at both ends (3023), a corrugated inner surface (3022), and several granular protrusions (3021) that enhance comfort and the massage effect.

[0060] The elastic sleeve (302) can be made of elastic materials such as modified plastics, rubber, or silicone, such as silicone or EVA. Silicone is preferred because of its excellent flexibility and elasticity, good skin compatibility, high mechanical strength, and wear resistance, making it suitable for contact with body parts.

[0061] As shown in Figures 2, 5 and 6, the massage sleeve (3) is externally equipped with a cylindrical clamping ring (11). The cylindrical clamping ring (11) is fixedly connected to the U-shaped apex of the component of transmission (9). The cylindrical clamping ring (11) has ear-shaped projections on both sides, which are fixed by bolts to the U-shaped top of the transmission component (9). For aesthetic reasons, the two can be permanently connected inside the housing by passing through the housing space (1013), and the cylindrical clamping ring (11) and the massage sleeve (3) move along the housing space (1013).

[0062] In order to facilitate cleaning or replacement of the massage sleeve (3), the massage sleeve (3) is removably connected to the cylindrical clamping ring (11), for example by a pressure or locking fitting.

[0063] In this embodiment, the motor (2) may be a brushless motor that changes speed and direction to obtain the reciprocating motion of the massage sleeve (3). The motor (2) may be powered by an internal or external power source, which may be a rechargeable battery or a disposable battery. In this embodiment, the power source (15) is located inside the housing (1).
