Description

Massage head, massage head assembly, neck massager and massager

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202321715551.7 filed on June 30, 2023. This application also claims priority to Chinese patent applications No. 202322186214X and No. 2023221862440 filed on August 14, 2023. The entire disclosures of these three applications are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of massage equipment, and in particular to a massage head, a massage head assembly, a neck massager, and a massager. Background Art

[0003] On the one hand, the mechanical massager, whose massage head is driven by the transmission mechanism, can perform massage actions such as kneading, pressing and tapping to massage the part of the human body to be massaged.

[0004] In the related art, the massage head includes a bracket and a soft rubber shell. The soft rubber shell contacts the part of the human body to be massaged. The soft rubber shell wraps the bracket and is integrally formed with the bracket, resulting in the soft rubber shell only being able to adhere to the shape of the bracket. The soft rubber shell and the bracket fit tightly together, resulting in a very small deformation margin of the soft rubber shell relative to the part of the human body to be massaged, resulting in a poor massage experience.

[0005] On the other hand, with the increasing pressure of life and work, more and more people are in sub-health status, often feeling tired and sore all over, which has led to the widespread use of various massagers.

[0006] The massage head is a key component of the massager. Existing massage heads usually have a connecting accessory between the massage head and the rotating shaft, so that the massage head can be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft provided on the massager body through the connecting accessory. At the same time, the massage head and the connecting accessory need to be fixed.

[0007] In the related art, some install bearings between the massage head and the connecting accessories to fix the massage head and the connecting accessories, but this has the problems of high cost and complicated assembly; some also set glue between the massage head and the connecting accessories to fix the massage head and the connecting accessories, but this is prone to glue overflow and has poor reliability.

[0008] On the other hand, in the massage industry, the classification of massagers is becoming more and more refined. Neck massagers are specifically designed to massage the user's neck. Neck massagers usually include a wearable body and two massage heads, which are used to pinch and knead the user's neck to achieve a neck massage effect.

[0009] The massage head of an existing neck massager usually only includes a massage body, which generally only massages one part or area of ​​the neck and cannot massage different parts of the neck at the same time. Its performance needs to be improved.

[0030] In some embodiments, a notch is provided on the side wall of the connecting member along the axial direction of the connecting shaft;

[0031] The notch is connected to the interior of the connecting member and is used to reduce the distance between the two side walls of the notch when the connecting member is subjected to external force, and to cause the side walls of the connecting member located on both sides of the notch to generate elastic deformation to form the elastic deformation portion.

[0032] In some embodiments, in the axial direction of the connecting shaft, the notch passes through the first clamping portion, and the connecting member is further provided with a shaping portion adjacent to the first clamping portion.

[0033] In some embodiments, the notch is arranged to pass through the side wall of the connecting member.

[0034] In some embodiments, along the circumferential direction of the connecting shaft, at least a portion of the surface of the connecting member on the circumferential side is an elastic member, and the elastic member is configured to form the elastic deformation portion.

[0035] In some embodiments, along the axial direction of the connecting shaft, a protrusion is formed on the side of the first clamping portion facing the massage head, and the protrusion is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the connecting member at an angle facing the side of the massage head, forming a receiving area for accommodating the elastic deformation portion.

[0036] In some embodiments, the connecting member is provided with an axial hole, and at least a portion of the connecting shaft extends into the axial hole.

[0037] In some embodiments, the connecting shaft includes a first shaft portion and a second shaft portion connected in sequence along the same axis, and the diameter of the first shaft portion is smaller than the diameter of the second shaft portion;

[0038] The axial hole comprises a first hole section and a second hole section which are sequentially connected along the same axis, and the aperture of the first hole section is smaller than the aperture of the second hole section;

[0039] The first shaft portion passes through the first hole segment, the second shaft portion at least partially extends into the second hole segment, and an axial end surface of the second shaft portion presses against a step end surface formed at the junction of the first hole segment and the second hole segment.

[0040] In some embodiments, a guide mounting surface is formed on the outer peripheral side of the connecting member, and the guide mounting surface extends obliquely from one end of the connecting member to the other end of the connecting member away from the central axis of the connecting shaft relative to the axial direction of the connecting shaft; the guide mounting surface can guide the massage head to be installed on the connecting member.

[0041] In some embodiments, one of the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion is a clamping block, and the other is a clamping slot.

[0042] A second aspect of the present application provides a massager comprising a massager body and the above-mentioned massage head assembly, wherein one end of the connecting shaft away from the massage head is connected to the massager body.

[0043] The massage head assembly provided in the second aspect of the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0044] The massage head assembly provided in the second aspect of the present application is provided with an elastic deformation portion on the connecting piece, so that when the massage head and the connecting piece are assembled, the elastic deformation portion of the connecting piece is squeezed and elastically deformed by the second clamping portion on the inner circumferential surface of the massage head, so that the overall size of the connecting piece is appropriately reduced along the radial direction of the connecting shaft, which makes it convenient for the operator to use external force to drive the massage head along the axial direction of the connecting shaft to slide relative to the connecting piece on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting piece, thereby simplifying the assembly and reducing the difficulty of assembling the massage head to the connecting piece.

[0045] The massage head assembly provided in the second aspect of the present application further comprises a first clamping portion provided on the outer circumferential surface of the connector, and a second clamping portion provided on the inner circumferential surface of the massage head, which can be engaged with the first clamping portion. When the massage head is assembled, the second clamping portion can follow the massage head and move along the axial direction of the connecting shaft to the position of the first clamping portion, completing the docking of the second clamping portion and the first clamping portion, so that the second clamping portion can be engaged with the first clamping portion, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of the massage head and the connector, simplifying the connection structure and fixing method of the massage head and the connector. At the same time, because the connector is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft, when the massage head massages the target object (such as the shoulder or neck of the human body), friction is generated between the contact surface of the massage head and the massage target object. Under the action of the friction force exerted by the massage target object, the massage head drives the connector to rotate relative to the connecting shaft with the connecting shaft as the center.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0094] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0095] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "inside", "outside", etc. used in this application to indicate the orientation or position relationship are based on the position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, which is only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices and elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on this application.

[0096] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc. are used to describe various types of information, but such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are merely used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, "first" information may also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information may also be referred to as "first" information, without departing from the scope of this application.

[0097] In the related art, the massage head includes a bracket and a silicone shell. The bracket and the silicone shell are integrally molded. During production, the silicone material fills the entire space of the bracket to form an elastic massage head. This traditional production process results in a large amount of consumables and high cost for the massage head, and the production process is complicated, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0098] As shown in Figures 1 to 12, a massage head 6 is provided in accordance with an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application. The massage head 6 is connected to the main body of the massager. Specifically, as shown in Figures 3 and 7, the massage head 6 of this embodiment includes a first massage component 4, which includes a first shell 1, a second shell 2, and a bracket 3. The first shell 1 is provided with an opening 11 and a receiving cavity 12 connected to the opening 11, and the first shell 1 is made of a flexible material and has flexibility. The second shell 2 covers the opening 11 to seal the receiving cavity 12. The bracket 3 is provided in the receiving cavity 12 and supports the first shell 1. The first shell 1 is provided with an air gap 16. At least a portion of the first shell 1 forms a gap with the bracket 3 through the air gap 16.

[0099] Based on the above technical solution, in this embodiment, the surface area of ​​the first shell 1 is larger than that of the second shell 2. An opening 11 is provided on the surface of the first shell 1. The bracket 3 is installed into the accommodating cavity 12 of the first shell 1 through the opening 11. Since the first shell 1 is flexible, the bracket 3 is provided in the accommodating cavity 12 to fully expand the first shell 1. The second shell 2 is used to cover the opening 11 to seal the bracket 3 inside the entire shell, thereby forming a massage head structure with a hard interior and a soft exterior. In order to increase the deformation margin of the first shell 1, at least a portion of the first shell 1 forms a gap with the bracket 3 through the air avoidance area 16. When the first shell 1 contacts the part of the human body to be massaged, the massage head can better adapt to the part of the human body to be massaged and deform, so that it has a better fit effect, thereby enhancing the massage experience.

[0100] It can be understood that, compared with the production process of traditional massage heads, the massage head 6 of this embodiment produces and assembles the bracket 3 and the shell separately. There is no need to fill the soft silicone material into the internal space of the massage head 6 and form the bracket 3, which can save silicone material. Moreover, the assembly method of the massage head 6 is relatively simple. The bracket 3 can be detachably assembled into the interior of the first shell 1, which effectively improves production efficiency. If the bracket 3 is damaged, the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are disassembled, and the bracket 3 is taken out from the accommodating chamber 12 for repair or replacement. The maintenance cost is low and the maintenance is convenient.

[0101] In some related technologies, the shell of a massage head is divided into two parts: a hard shell and a soft shell. During massage, the hard shell can press against the body, resulting in a less comfortable massage. However, the massage head of this embodiment has a different structure. As shown in Figure 6, the first shell 1 with a larger surface area is similar to the wrapping bracket 3, ensuring full contact between the first shell 1 and the neck. The flexibility of the first shell 1 provides cushioning, thereby improving the comfort of the massage head.

[0102] It should be noted that, in actual applications, the massage head of this embodiment can also be called a massage hand, a massage fist or a massage component, etc., and its function is to simulate a human hand and is used to repeatedly vibrate relevant acupuncture points of the human body, thereby relieving muscle soreness.

[0103] As an embodiment, as shown in FIG3 , a plurality of the air avoidance zones 16 are provided, and the plurality of air avoidance zones 16 are arranged at intervals.

[0104] Specifically, the plurality of spaced-apart avoidance areas 16 can make the deformation of the first shell 1 more uniform and sufficient, so as to achieve a better overall deformation effect of the massage head, thereby improving the fit between the first shell 1 and the human body.

[0105] As an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 , a support portion 17 is provided between two adjacent avoidance areas 16 . The support portion 17 is integrally formed with the first shell 1 . The support portion 17 is used to contact the bracket 3 and support the first shell 1 .

[0106] Specifically, the first shell 1 is softened by the presence of the escape zones 16, making it prone to collapse and deformation. This is especially true when the massage head contacts the area being massaged, where friction makes it more susceptible to collapse. In this embodiment, a support portion 17 is provided between two adjacent escape zones 16 to support the first shell 1 and prevent its entirety from collapsing and deforming.

[0107] As an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9 , the first housing 1 is provided with a cutout portion 13 , which is connected to the opening portion 11 and is used to increase the expansion range of the opening portion 11 .

[0108] Specifically, because bracket 3 needs to prop up first housing 1, which is made of a flexible material, bracket 3 is slightly larger than opening 11. A cutout 13 is provided at the opening of opening 11 to increase the expansion range of opening 11, thereby allowing bracket 3 to be smoothly inserted into accommodating cavity 12 through opening 11. In this embodiment, the specific location of cutout 13 is not particularly limited and can be perpendicular to or extend toward the opening of opening 11, as long as the expansion range of opening 11 is increased.

[0109] As a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the first shell 1 includes a first cutout 131 and a second cutout 132, and the first cutout 131 and the second cutout 132 are respectively arranged at both ends of the opening 11 along its length direction. The first cutout 131 and the second cutout 132 are used to increase the expansion range of the opening 11.

[0110] For example, the first notch 131 and the second notch 132 of this embodiment are respectively provided at both ends of the opening portion 11 along its length direction, that is, at both ends of the opening position, so that the two notches extend toward the two ends of the opening portion 11, respectively, thereby increasing the expansion range of the opening portion 11 in the length direction of the opening portion 11, and making it easier to install the bracket 3 from the opening portion 11 into the accommodating cavity 12. Of course, this embodiment can also provide only one notch portion at one end of the opening portion 11 along its length direction. Specifically, depending on the specifications, shape, and size of the bracket 3, the notch portion can be provided at one end or both ends of the opening portion 11.

[0111] As an embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 to 10, the first shell 1 is provided with a positioning hole 14, which is provided on the side of the first incision 131 and / or the second incision 132, and the bracket 3 is provided with a positioning column 31 that cooperates with the positioning hole 14. The positioning column 31 is used to pass through the positioning hole 14 to fix the first incision 131 and / or the second incision 132.

[0112] Specifically, when providing the cutout portion 13, a first cutout 131 can be provided at the left end of the opening portion 11, or a second cutout 132 can be provided at the right end of the opening portion 11, or a first cutout 131 and a second cutout 132 can be provided at the left and right ends of the opening portion 11, respectively, with positioning holes 14 correspondingly provided on the sides of the cutouts. During installation, the bracket 3 is first installed into the accommodating cavity 12 of the first shell 1, and then the positioning posts 31 of the bracket 3 are passed through the positioning holes 14 of the first shell 1 to position the bracket 3. At the same time, the first shell 1 is fully pulled to prevent the first cutout 131 or the second cutout 132 from being stretched and deformed by the bracket 3 after the bracket 3 is installed, which would cause the connection between the first shell 1 and the bracket 3 to become unstable and loose.

[0113] It should be noted that the width of the first notch 131 and the second notch 132 should not be too small. If the notch width is too small, it will not only be detrimental to production and processing, but also easily break when installing the bracket 3. The notch width should not be too large either. If the notch width is too large, it will easily lead to insufficient structural strength of the first shell 1, thereby affecting the installation of the bracket 3. In practical applications, the notch width is preferably 1 mm to 6 mm. Within this size range, the above-mentioned technical problems can be avoided.

[0114] As an embodiment, as shown in FIG8 , FIG9 and FIG11 , the first shell 1 is provided with a groove 15 along the edge of the opening 11 , and the second shell 2 is provided with a protrusion 21 matching the groove 15 on a side facing the first shell 1 .

[0115] Specifically, the bracket 3 is first installed into the accommodating cavity 12 of the first shell 1, and then the positioning column 31 of the bracket 3 is used to pass through the positioning hole 14 of the first shell 1 to position the bracket 3 and the first shell 1. Then, the second shell 2 is used to cover the opening 11, and the protrusion 21 on the surface of the second shell 2 is embedded in the groove 15 of the first shell 1, so that the outer periphery of the second shell 2 is tightly fitted with the edge of the opening 11, thereby increasing the connection stability of the second shell 2 and the first shell 1.

[0116] As an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 , a hook 22 is provided on a side of the second shell 2 facing the first shell 1 , and a slot 32 matching the hook 22 is provided on a side of the bracket 3 facing the second shell 2 .

[0117] Specifically, when the second shell 2 covers the opening 11, the hook 22 of the second shell 2 is matched with the slot 32 of the bracket 3, the hook 22 is engaged into the slot 32 to connect and fix the second shell 2 to the bracket 3, and the protrusion 21 on the surface of the second shell 2 is embedded in the groove 15 of the first shell 1, so that the second shell 2 is connected to the first shell 1 and the bracket 3 respectively, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the massage head.

[0118] As an implementation manner, the hook 22 , the protrusion 21 and the second shell 2 are integrally formed, and the slot 32 and the bracket 3 are integrally formed.

[0119] Specifically, the hook 22, the protrusion 21 and the second shell 2 are connected as a whole to the first shell 1 and the bracket 3 respectively, which is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the massage head.

[0120] As an embodiment, as shown in Figures 2 and 8, in addition to the first massage component 4, the massage head 6 of this embodiment also includes a second massage component 5. The second massage component 4 is connected to the bracket 3 and is arranged on the outside of the first shell 1 to expand the contact range between the massage head 6 and the human body.

[0121] Specifically, the second massage component 5 includes two massage balls, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the bracket 3 and are arranged on the outside of the first shell 1 to expand the area of ​​the massage head 6, thereby increasing the contact range between the massage head 6 and the human body and improving the comfort of the massage head 6.

[0122] As an embodiment, as shown in Figures 8 to 10, the massage head 6 of this embodiment has a first direction X and a second direction Y, and the first direction X and the second direction Y are arranged at an angle; the opening 11 is arranged along the first direction X; the bracket 3 includes a first connecting portion 33, and the first connecting portion 33 is arranged along the second direction Y. The massage head 6 of this embodiment is connected to the body of the massager via the first connecting portion 33.

[0123] For example, the first direction X is the length of the opening 11, and the second direction Y is the thickness of the massage head 6. After production and assembly, the massage head 6 is connected to the massager body. In the prior art, screws are installed at the top of the massage head 6, connecting it to the massager body along the length of the opening 11. This assembly method is affected by the massager body and makes screwing difficult. This embodiment connects the massager body via the first connecting portion 33, i.e., screwing the massage head 6 from the side. This avoids this problem, making screwing easier and improving the production efficiency of the massager.

[0124] As an embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the first housing 1 further includes a sleeve portion 18, which sleeves onto the outside of the first connecting portion 33 and extends to the connection between the first connecting portion 33 and the massager body. The sleeve portion 18 is integrally formed with the first housing 1. The housing portion formed by the first housing 1 and the sleeve portion 18 fully encloses the bracket 3 and the first connecting portion 33, ensuring the overall flexibility of the massage head.

[0125] In the second aspect, as shown in FIG12 , an embodiment of the first aspect of the present application further provides a massager, which includes a massage head 6 .

[0126] It should be understood that the massager of this embodiment is used for neck massage and may also be referred to as a neck massager, cervical massager, massage equipment, or massage device, etc. Specifically, the massager includes two left and right massage heads 6, a first main body 7, and two second main bodies 8. The two massage heads 6 are connected to the front end of the first main body 7 via a first connecting portion 33, and the two second main bodies 8 are connected to the rear end of the first main body 7. The first and second main bodies 7, 8 are made of sponge material, both of which are elastic and can recover their shape after being deformed by pressure. The first main body 7 is internally provided with a control motherboard and other electronic components for realizing functions such as movement, rotation, and massage of the massage heads 6. The massager of this embodiment achieves the effect of relieving pressure on the cervical spine through the massage heads 6.

[0127] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship and movement status between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0128] It should also be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element through an intervening element.

[0129] In addition, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. in this application are for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0130] In related art, a connecting accessory is often provided between the massage head and the rotating shaft, allowing the massage head to be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft provided on the massager body through the connecting accessory. At the same time, the massage head and the connecting accessory need to be fixed. Currently, there are two main methods for fixing the massage head and the connecting accessory: one is to install a bearing between the massage head and the connecting accessory to fix the massage head and the connecting accessory, but this is costly and complicated to assemble; the other is to install adhesive between the massage head and the connecting accessory to fix the massage head and the connecting accessory, but this method is prone to adhesive overflow and has poor reliability.

[0131] In view of this, as shown in Figures 13, 14, and 16, a second aspect of the present application provides a massage head assembly 10, which is applied to a massager (not shown) and solves at least one of the above problems. The massage head assembly 10 of the present application embodiment comprises a connector 200 disposed between the massage head 300 and the connecting shaft 100, and the connector 200 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 100. The connector 200 has an elastic deformation portion 210 and a first clamping portion 220 located on its outer circumference. The massage head 300 is covered on the outer circumference of the connector 200, and the second clamping portion 310 on the inner circumference of the massage head 300 is engaged with the first clamping portion 220. In this way, when the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200 are assembled, the second clamping portion 310 of the massage head 300 can squeeze the elastic deformation portion 210 to elastically deform the elastic deformation portion 210, making it convenient to use external force to drive the massage head 300 to slide on the outer peripheral surface of the connecting member 200, simplifying the assembly and reducing the difficulty of assembly. At the same time, the second clamping portion 310 can be moved to a position where it can be clamped with the first clamping portion 220, so that the second clamping portion 310 can be clamped and matched with the first clamping portion 220, simplifying the connection between the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200, and improving the connection stability between the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200, thereby improving the reliability of the massage head assembly 10.

[0132] Example 1

[0133] The massage head assembly 4 provided in this embodiment can be seen in Figures 13 to 21.

[0134] As shown in Figures 13, 14, and 16, the massage head assembly 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a connecting shaft 100, a connecting member 200, and a massage head 300. The connecting member 200 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 100 and is capable of rotating relative to the connecting shaft 100. The connecting member 200 is provided with an elastically deformable portion 210. The elastically deformable portion 210 is elastically deformable under the action of an external force to appropriately reduce the overall size of the connecting member 200 in the radial direction of the connecting shaft 100. The outer circumference of the connecting member 200 is provided with a first engaging portion 220, and the inner circumference of the massage head 300 is provided with a second engaging portion 310. The massage head 300 is disposed on the outer circumference of the connecting member 200, and the second engaging portion 310 engages with the first engaging portion 220.

[0135] It can be understood that the massage head assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present application is provided with an elastic deformation portion 210 on the connector 200, so that when the massage head 300 and the connector 200 are assembled, the elastic deformation portion 210 of the connector 200 is squeezed and elastically deformed by the second clamping portion 310 on the inner circumferential surface of the massage head 300, so that the overall size of the connector 200 along the radial direction of the connecting shaft 100 is appropriately reduced, which is convenient for the operator to use external force to drive the massage head 300 to be installed on the connector 200 along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. The massage head 300 can slide relative to the connector 200 on the outer circumferential surface of the connector 200, thereby simplifying the assembly of the massage head 300 and the connector 200 and reducing the difficulty of assembling the massage head 300 on the connector 200. It can be understood that using external force to drive the massage head 300 to slide on the outer circumference of the connecting member 200 includes using external force to push the massage head 300 to slide on the outer circumference of the connecting member 200, and using external force to rotate the massage head 300 so that the massage head 300 rotates and slides on the outer circumference of the connecting member 200.

[0136] The massage head assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present application also provides a first clamping portion 220 on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting member 200, and provides a second clamping portion 310 on the inner circumferential surface of the massage head 300 that can be engaged with the first clamping portion 220. When the massage head 300 is assembled, the second clamping portion 310 can follow the massage head 300 and move along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100 to the position where the first clamping portion 220 is located, completing the docking of the second clamping portion 310 and the first clamping portion 220, so that the second clamping portion 310 can be engaged with the first clamping portion 220, thereby realizing the clamping and fixing of the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200, improving the connection stability between the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200, thereby improving the reliability of the massage head assembly 10, and simplifying the connection structure and fixing method of the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200.

[0137] At the same time, because the connecting member 200 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 100, when the massage head 300 massages a target object (such as a human shoulder or neck), friction is generated between the contact surface of the massage head 300 and the target object. Under the action of the friction force exerted by the target object, the massage head 300 drives the connecting member 200 to rotate relative to the connecting shaft 100, with the connecting shaft 100 as the center. Furthermore, because the elastically deformable portion 210 of the connecting member 200 is elastically deformable, when the massage head 300 and the connecting member 200 are assembled, the connecting member 200 returns to its original radial dimension, without affecting the connection between the connecting member 200 and the connecting shaft 100. Thus, the relative rotation of the connecting member and the connecting shaft, and consequently, the relative rotation of the massage head and the connecting shaft, is not affected.

[0138] As shown in Figures 14 and 17, as an embodiment, a notch 230 is provided in the sidewall of the connector 200 along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. The interior of the connector 200 is hollow, and the notch 230 communicates with the interior of the connector 200. The notch 230 is used to reduce the distance between the two side walls of the notch 230 when the connector 200 is subjected to an external force, thereby causing the sidewalls of the connector 200 located on both sides of the notch 230 to elastically deform, thereby forming an elastic deformation portion 210. The massage head assembly 10 of the present embodiment has the notch 230 provided in the sidewall of the connector 200. When the massage head 300 is assembled with the connector 200, the massage head 300 presses the connector 200, causing the connector 200 to elastically deform. The direction of the elastic deformation of the connector 200 is the direction in which the notch 230 is reduced, causing the sidewalls of the connector 200 located on both sides of the notch 230 to approach each other, thereby reducing the overall outer diameter of the connector 200 and facilitating assembly.

[0139] As shown in FIG14 , FIG16 and FIG17 , as an embodiment, in the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100, the notch 230 passes through the first clamping portion 220, and the connector 200 is further provided with a shaped portion 240 adjacent to the first clamping portion 220. Since the notch 230 passes through the first clamping portion 220, it is easy for the first clamping portion 220 to deform. Therefore, the shaped portion 240 adjacent to the first clamping portion 220 is provided on the connector 200 to stabilize the shape of the first clamping portion 220, thereby reducing the probability of the first clamping portion 220 deforming along with the notch 230, thereby improving the clamping stability between the first clamping portion 220 and the second clamping portion 310. In one embodiment, the first clamping portion 220 is an annular groove provided on the outer peripheral surface of the connector 200, and the shaped portion 240 extends along the side wall of the connector 200 and forms a closed annular shape to fix the shape of the annular groove.

[0140] As shown in Figures 14 and 20, as one embodiment, the notch 230 is provided through the sidewall of the connector 200, increasing the elastic deformation of the connector 200 and shortening the distance between the sidewalls of the connector 200 located on either side of the notch 230 when they approach each other, thereby reducing the overall outer diameter of the connector 200 and facilitating installation of the massage head 300. In embodiments where the connector 200 is provided with a shaped portion 240, the notch 230 also extends through the shaped portion 240, thereby reducing the degree of deformation of the first engaging portion 220 as it deforms with the notch 230 and increasing the elastic deformation of the connector 200.

[0141] As shown in Figures 14 and 17, as an embodiment, the connecting member 200 is provided with an axial hole 250 to facilitate assembly of the connecting member 200 to the connecting shaft 100. The axial hole 250 is in communication with the notch 230, and at least a portion of the connecting shaft 100 extends into the axial hole 250. It should be understood that the connecting shaft 100 may be partially or fully extended into the axial hole 250 to complete assembly with the connecting member 200. In one embodiment, a portion of the connecting shaft 100 extends into the axial hole 250, so that the other portion of the connecting shaft 100 can be used to connect to the massager body, further facilitating assembly of the connecting shaft 100 with the massager body.

[0142] As shown in Figures 16, 18, and 19, as one embodiment, the connecting shaft 100 includes a first shaft portion 110 and a second shaft portion 120 connected sequentially along the same axis. The diameter of the first shaft portion 110 is smaller than that of the second shaft portion 120, simplifying the structure of the connecting shaft 100. The shaft hole 250 includes a first hole section 251 and a second hole section 252, which are connected sequentially along the same axis. The diameter of the first hole section 251 is smaller than that of the second hole section 252, respectively accommodating the first shaft portion 110 and the second shaft portion 120. The first shaft portion 110 passes through the first hole section 251, while the second shaft portion 120 at least partially extends into the second hole section 252. An axial end surface of the second shaft portion 120 abuts against a stepped end surface 253 formed at the junction of the first and second hole sections 251, 252, to restrict axial movement of the second shaft portion 120, thereby limiting axial movement of the connecting shaft 100 and improving the assembly stability of the connecting shaft 100 and the connector 200. In the embodiment where the shaft hole 250 includes a first hole section 251 and a second hole section 252, the shaft hole 250 also includes a third hole section 254 having a larger diameter than the first hole section 251 and being coaxial with the first hole section 251. When the connector 200 is positioned vertically, the third hole section 254 is located above the first hole section 251, and the second hole section 252 is located below the first hole section 251. The provision of the first hole section 251 protects the connector 200 from contacting the massage head 300 if the first shaft portion 110 is excessively long and protrudes beyond the first hole section 251.

[0143] As shown in Figures 14 and 19 , as one embodiment, a guide mounting surface 260 is formed on the outer circumference of the connector 200. The guide mounting surface 260 is used to guide the massage head 300 for installation on the connector 200. The guide mounting surface 260 extends obliquely from one end of the connector 200 to the other end of the connector 200, away from the central axis of the connector 100, relative to the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. Thus, the radial dimension of the connector 200 gradually increases from one end to the other in the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. The guide mounting surface 260 guides the massage head 300 from the end of the connector 200 with the smallest radial dimension to the end of the connector 200 with the largest radial dimension, thus simplifying assembly and facilitating the assembly of the massage head 300.

[0144] As shown in Figures 14 and 16, as one embodiment, one of the first engaging portion 220 and the second engaging portion 310 is a block and the other is a slot, thereby achieving a snap connection between the two. In one embodiment, the first engaging portion 220 is a slot and the second engaging portion 310 is a block. The slot is formed in an annular shape with the outer peripheral wall of the connector 200. Two blocks are provided and symmetrically distributed on the inner peripheral surface of the massage head 300. Both blocks are snapped into the slots. In another embodiment, the first engaging portion 220 is a block protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the connector 200, and the second engaging portion 310 is a slot recessed into the inner peripheral surface of the massage head 300.

[0145] As shown in FIG. 16 and FIG. 21 , in one embodiment, the massage head 300 has a receiving cavity 320 for accommodating the connecting member 200 and a portion of the connecting shaft 100 .

[0146] Example 2

[0147] Referring to Figures 22 to 24 , the massage head assembly 10 provided in this embodiment differs from that in the first embodiment primarily in the formation of the elastic deformation portion 210 :

[0148] As shown in Figures 22 and 24 , and in conjunction with Figure 16 , as one embodiment, along the circumferential direction of the connecting shaft 100, at least a portion of the surface of the connecting member 200 located on the circumferential side is an elastic member 270, and the elastic member 270 is configured to form an elastic deformation portion 210. It will be understood that the area on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting member 200, excluding the area occupied by the first clamping portion 220, is partially or entirely composed of the elastic member 270, and the elastic deformation capacity of the area composed entirely of the elastic member 270 is greater than the elastic deformation capacity of the area composed partially of the elastic member 270. The elastic member 270 is configured to form an elastically deformable portion 210, allowing at least a portion of the peripheral surface of the connector 200 to elastically deform. During assembly, the massage head 300 is rotated to rotate the second engaging portion 310, thereby causing the second engaging portion 310 to rotate while squeezing the elastic member 270, causing at least a portion of the outer surface of the connector 200 to elastically deform. Simultaneously, the massage head 300 can slide relative to the connector 200 along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100, thereby reducing the size of at least a portion of the outer peripheral wall of the connector 200. The entire assembly process does not require the use of external force or tools to push the massage head 300, simplifying the assembly process of the massage head 300. For example, the elastic member 270 can be made of an elastically deformable material such as rubber.

[0149] As shown in Figures 22, 23, and 24, and in conjunction with Figure 16, as one embodiment, a protrusion 280 is formed on the side of the first clamping portion 220 facing the massage head 300 along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. The side of the protrusion 280 facing the massage head 300 is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the connector 200 at an angle, forming an accommodating area 290 for accommodating the elastically deformable portion 210. The provision of the protrusion 280 separates the elastically deformable portion 210 from the first clamping portion 220, reducing the probability of localized deformation of the first clamping portion 220 caused by deformation of the elastically deformable portion 210, thereby improving the clamping stability between the first clamping portion 220 and the second clamping portion 310. In an embodiment where the first engaging portion 220 is an annular groove, the protrusion 280 is annular and is disposed around the outer circumference of the connector 200 to form the sidewalls of the annular groove. This prevents the elastically deformable portion 210 from forming the sidewalls of the annular groove near the end of the annular groove, thereby improving the structural stability of the annular groove. In one embodiment, along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100, the surface of the protrusion 280 facing away from the first engaging portion 220 is tilted relative to the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100 and forms an acute angle with the axial direction of the connecting shaft 100. This ensures that after the accommodating area 290 is fully filled with the elastically deformable portion 210, the smoothness of the joint between the elastically deformable portion 210 and the protrusion 280 is improved, thereby facilitating the sliding of the massage head 300 on the connector 200.

[0150] As shown in Figures 22 and 24 , in one embodiment, the elastically deformable portion 210 is disposed on the outer wall of the connector 200 and located within the accommodating area 290 . The minimum radial dimension of the inner wall of the massage head 300 is smaller than the outer diameter of the connector 200 . During installation, the massage head 300 is rotated, and the inner wall of the massage head 300 compresses the outer wall of the connector 200, causing the elastically deformable portion 210 on the outer wall of the connector 200 to elastically deform. This simplifies assembly and eliminates the need for tools or external force to push the massage head 300. After the massage head 300 is assembled to the connector 200, because the minimum radial dimension of the inner wall of the massage head 300 is smaller than the outer diameter of the connector 200, a portion of the outer wall of the connector 200 can fit against the inner wall of the massage head 300, while another portion can be spaced apart from the inner wall of the massage head 300.

[0151] As shown in Figures 14 and 16, an embodiment of the second aspect of the present application further provides a massager, including a massager body (not marked) and a massage head assembly 10 of Example 1 or Example 2, wherein the end of the connecting shaft 100 away from the massage head 300 is connected to the massager body.

[0152] It is understood that the massager body can support the connecting shaft 100, which serves to connect the massage head 300 and the massager body. The massager of the embodiment of the present application uses the massage head assembly 10 of the first or second embodiment to massage the target object with the massage head 300. Because the massage head 300 can rotate around the connecting shaft 100 under the friction force exerted by the massage target object, the massage effect is enhanced. Because the massage head assembly 10 is provided with an elastic deformation portion 210 and a first clamping portion 220 located on the outer circumference of the connector 200, and a second clamping portion 310 is provided on the inner circumference of the massage head 300, when the massage head 300 is assembled, the second clamping portion 310 of the massage head 300 can compress the elastic deformation portion 210 of the connector 200, thereby appropriately reducing the overall radial dimension of the connector 200. This facilitates the sliding of the massage head 300 on the connector 200 and reduces the difficulty of assembling the massage head 300. At the same time, the second clamping portion 310 moves with the massage head 300 and is clamped to the first clamping portion 220 , thereby improving the assembly stability of the massage head 300 .

[0153] In one embodiment, the connecting shaft 100 may also be a rotating shaft or a swinging shaft that can be driven by the massager body, so as to rotate or swing under the driving action of the massager body, thereby driving the massage head 300 to rotate or swing to massage the target object.

[0154] As shown in Figures 25-28, an embodiment of the third aspect of the present application provides a massage head assembly, which includes a main massage head 400 and an auxiliary massage head 500.

[0155] The tail portion 401 of the main massage head 400 has a second connection portion 4011 for connecting to a transmission mechanism, and the head portion 402 of the main massage head 400 has at least one massage protrusion 4021 .

[0156] The auxiliary massage head 500 is located between the tail portion 401 and the head portion 402 of the main massage head 400 . There are multiple auxiliary massage heads 500 . The auxiliary massage heads 500 are respectively arranged on both sides of the main massage head 400 and extend in a direction away from the main massage head 400 .

[0157] The massage head assembly provided in this application is mainly used for a neck massager, which includes a main massage head 400 and multiple auxiliary massage heads 500. The multiple involved in this application includes two or more.

[0158] The main massage head 400 is primarily used to massage the user's neck. It comprises a tail portion 401 and a head portion 402, preferably arranged opposite each other. The tail portion 401 is provided with a second connection portion 4011, which can be a connection hole, mounting slot, or connecting post. This second connection portion 4011 is used to connect to a transmission mechanism, thereby driving the main massage head 400 in motion, such as swinging or vibrating. The head portion 402 has at least one massage protrusion 4021, which, during use, contacts the user's skin to provide a massage effect.

[0159] Multiple auxiliary massage heads 500 are located on either side of the main massage head 400 to massage the area surrounding the main massage head 400. Each auxiliary massage head 500 extends away from the main massage head 400, and the multiple auxiliary massage heads 500 are arranged in multiple directions on the sides of the main massage head 400. The main massage head 400 and the multiple auxiliary massage heads 500 are adapted to different positions on the human body and the position of the neck, thereby simultaneously massaging multiple different positions, improving massage performance and user experience.

[0160] Specifically, the main massage head 400 extends from the tail 401 to the head 402. Each auxiliary massage head 500 extends in a direction that intersects with the main massage head 400. Multiple auxiliary massage heads 500 are radially arranged on the sides of the main massage head 400. Depending on the needs, one or more auxiliary massage heads 500 may extend perpendicularly to the main massage head 400, or may extend obliquely toward the head 402.

[0161] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25-28 , two auxiliary massage heads 500 are provided, and the two auxiliary massage heads 500 are respectively a first auxiliary massage head 501 and a second auxiliary massage head 502 .

[0162] The first auxiliary massage head 501 and the second auxiliary massage head 502 extend obliquely on both sides of the main massage head 400 .

[0163] In this embodiment, the main massage head 400 is provided with two auxiliary massage heads 500. For ease of description and distinction, the two auxiliary massage heads 500 are designated as a first auxiliary massage head 501 and a second auxiliary massage head 502, respectively. In this embodiment, the first and second auxiliary massage heads 501, 502 may have the same or different structures. The first and second auxiliary massage heads 501, 502 are located on opposite sides of the main massage head 400. Furthermore, the first and second auxiliary massage heads 501, 502 extend at an angle, that is, they do not extend perpendicularly to the main massage head 400, but rather extend at an angle toward the head 402.

[0164] The connection between the human body's neck and shoulders and the connection between the neck and head are both arc-shaped. When the main massage head 400 is driven to swing by the driving mechanism, the inclined extended first and second auxiliary massage heads 501, 502 can better fit the upper and lower ends of the neck, so that the connection between the neck and shoulders can be massaged by the first and second auxiliary massage heads 501, 502, and the connection between the neck and head can be massaged by the second and first auxiliary massage heads 502, 501.

[0165] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 25-28, the angle between the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the main massage head 400 is less than 90°, and the angle between the second auxiliary massage head 502 and the main massage head 400 is less than 90°. That is, the angle between the extension direction of the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the extension direction of the main massage head 400 is less than 90°, and the angle between the extension direction of the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the extension direction of the main massage head 400 is also less than 90°, ensuring that the extension directions of the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the second auxiliary massage head 502 are not perpendicular to the massage head 400, but both extend obliquely toward the head 402 so as to fit the arc of the neck-shoulder connection and the neck-head connection.

[0166] In one embodiment, the angle between the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the main massage head 400 is greater than the angle between the second auxiliary massage head 502 and the main massage head 400 .

[0167] The first auxiliary massage head 501 corresponds to the human trapezius muscle, while the second auxiliary massage head 502 corresponds to the human Fengchi acupoint. The trapezius muscle is located more obliquely to the midline of the neck, meaning the angle between the trapezius muscle and the centerline of the neck is greater than the angle between the Fengchi acupoint and the centerline of the neck. Therefore, to better accommodate these two locations, the angle between the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the main massage head 400 is set to be greater than the angle between the second auxiliary massage head 502 and the main massage head 400. Setting a larger angle between the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the main massage head 400 also prevents misplaced wear. If the angle between the first auxiliary massage head 501 and the main massage head 400 were equal to the angle between the second auxiliary massage head 502 and the main massage head 400, consumers would easily mistakenly wear the massage head with the front and back, thus failing to achieve the desired massage effect on the trapezius muscle or Fengchi acupoint.

[0168] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 27-28 , the length of the first auxiliary massage head 501 is greater than the length of the second auxiliary massage head 502 .

[0169] In this embodiment, the first massage head 501 is used to massage the neck-shoulder connection area, which is the location of the trapezius muscle. The second massage head 502 is used to massage the neck-head connection area. Because the neck-shoulder connection area is larger than the neck-head connection area, the length of the first massage head 501 is set to be longer than the length of the second massage head 502 to ensure proper fit at different locations. This also prevents users from wearing the massage head incorrectly.

[0170] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 25-28, the second connecting portion 4011 is located at the rear end 401 of the main massage head 400, near the second auxiliary massage head 502. This placement of the second connecting portion 4011 near the second auxiliary massage head 502 allows the center of gravity of the massage head assembly to be evenly distributed across the massager's movement, preventing center of gravity shift. If the second connecting portion 4011 were located in the middle of the main massage head 400 or near the first auxiliary massage head 501, the majority of the first auxiliary massage head 501 would extend beyond the movement, causing the center of gravity to be unevenly distributed across the movement. Consequently, when the massage head contacts the human body, the center of gravity shifts toward the second auxiliary massage head 502. This, combined with the reaction force of the movement, causes the movement to shift upward, resulting in the wearer's neck being unable to fit snugly, making it unstable and prone to falling. Alternatively, the wearer would require manual support, hindering hands-free operation.

[0171] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25-28 , the auxiliary massage head 500 is integrally connected to the main massage head 400 ; or, the auxiliary massage head 500 is pivotally connected to the main massage head 400 .

[0172] In this embodiment, the auxiliary massage head 500 and the main massage head 400 can be fixedly connected together, and the auxiliary massage head 500 can also rotate relative to the main massage head 400.

[0173] The auxiliary massage head 500 can rotate relative to the main massage head 400, eliminating the problem of it getting stuck during wear or massage. Specifically, the auxiliary massage head 500 is rotatable. If it becomes obstructed during wear or massage, the reaction force from the neck will cause it to rotate, preventing it from getting stuck. This allows it to accommodate people of different sizes and enhances the user experience.

[0174] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 26 and FIG. 28 , the main massage head 400 has a mounting shaft 403 , and the auxiliary massage head 500 is mounted on the mounting shaft 403 .

[0175] In this embodiment, the position where the main massage head 400 is mounted to the auxiliary massage head 500 is provided with an installation shaft 403. The auxiliary massage head 500 has an installation slot 504.

[0176] One way: the installation shaft 403 is interference-fitted in the installation groove 504 , and the auxiliary massage head 500 and the installation shaft 403 remain relatively fixed.

[0177] Alternatively, one end of the mounting shaft 403 is inserted into the mounting groove 504, allowing the auxiliary massage head 500 to rotate relative to the mounting shaft 403. As needed, a bearing can be installed between the wall of the mounting groove 504 and the mounting shaft 403. As needed, a rotating sleeve 404 can be mounted on the mounting shaft 403, with the rotating sleeve 404 forming an interference fit with the mounting groove 504. Alternatively, a pin can be placed at one end of the auxiliary massage head 500, with the rotating sleeve 404 positioned in the mounting groove 504 and connected to the mounting shaft 403, thereby assembling the rotating sleeve 404 and the auxiliary massage head 500 together.

[0178] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 25-28, the auxiliary massage head 500 has anti-slip corrugations 503. The auxiliary massage head 500 is capable of rotating relative to the main massage head 400. The anti-slip corrugations 503 are disposed on the outer circumference of the auxiliary massage head 500. Upon contact with the human body, the anti-slip corrugations 503 experience resistance, thereby facilitating the rotation of the auxiliary massage head 500.

[0179] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25 to FIG. 28 , the head portion 402 of the main massage head 400 has two or more massage protrusions 4021 , and a transition recess 4022 is formed between any two adjacent massage protrusions 4021 .

[0180] In this embodiment, multiple massage protrusions 4021 are arranged in a predetermined array, increasing the length of massage applied to the neck and enabling multiple locations to be massaged. The multiple massage protrusions 4021 are arranged sequentially, with adjacent areas forming transitional recesses 4022. This creates a hill-like shape on the head 402 of the main massage head 400, providing a different massage sensation at each location and enhancing the multi-layered massage experience.

[0181] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 25-28, the top of the massage protrusion 4021 that contacts the human body adopts a protruding edge arc setting, so that the contact point between the top and the human body has greater strength, and the edge arc settings on both sides of the top will not cause diaphragm to the human body.

[0182] As shown in Figures 29-30, an embodiment of the third aspect of the present application provides a neck massager, which includes the massage head assembly described in any of the aforementioned embodiments.

[0183] The neck massager provided in this application includes a wearing body 600, a clamping arm 700 and the aforementioned massage head assembly. For the structure, construction and working principle of the massage head assembly, please refer to the previous description of the massage head assembly, which will not be repeated here.

[0184] The movement is installed in the wearing body 600. The swing member of the transmission mechanism is connected to the second connecting portion 4011, thereby driving the massage head assembly to perform a yaw motion.

[0185] It is particularly noted that the neck massager in this embodiment and the massager in the aforementioned embodiment can be the same device. The wearing body 600 in this embodiment can be the first body part 7 in the aforementioned embodiment.

[0186] As needed, the above technical solutions can be combined to achieve the best technical effect.

[0187] The above are merely the principles and preferred embodiments of the present application. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, implementation methods obtained by appropriately combining the technical solutions disclosed in different embodiments are also included in the technical scope of the present application. Based on the principles of the present application, several other variations can be made and should also be considered as the scope of protection of the present application.
