Fishtail Swinging Massager Mechanism for Multi-Directional Skin Massage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional massagers primarily offer a single vibration effect, which limits their application and fails to provide a comprehensive massage experience, especially in areas away from joint positions.
Innovation Solution
A massager with a fishtail swinging function is designed, incorporating a hard outer shell, a driving unit, a swinging element, a supporting base, and a massage part. The driving unit drives the swinging element to swing back and forth, allowing the massage part to effectively push against the skin for a wider range of massage applications.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a traditional vibration motor is used to achieve massage effect, then the structure is simple, but the massage effect is single and limited to vibration only
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines a vibration motor and a swinging mechanism into a single integrated massager head. The vibration motor provides vibrational motion while the swinging element adds back-and-forth oscillating motion, merging two different motion types into one device to achieve multiple massage effects without requiring separate devices.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a dynamic swinging mechanism that allows the massage head to oscillate back and forth in addition to vibration. The swinging element can rotate relative to the vibration motor, creating a dynamic multi-directional massage action that adapts to different body contours and provides varied massage effects.
2Ease of operation
If a pinching type massager with soft sleeve is used, then the massage comfort is improved, but the application scope is limited to joint positions only
Solution Approach 1:
The patent designs a universal massager head that can be applied to various body parts including joints, muscles, and contours. The combination of vibration and swinging motions, along with the ergonomic design of the massage head, enables it to effectively massage different body areas such as shoulders, back, legs, and face, making it a multi-functional device.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses a composite structure combining a hard outer shell for structural support and a soft massage head material for comfort. This composite design allows the massager to maintain its shape and swinging motion while providing a comfortable interface with the skin, enabling broader application across different body parts.
3Device complexity
If a single vibration function is provided, then the device complexity is low, but the massage experience is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the static vibration function into a dynamic multi-motion system. The swinging element adds oscillating motion that works in conjunction with the vibration motor, creating complex massage patterns that simulate manual massage techniques. This dynamic approach significantly enhances the massage experience while maintaining reasonable device complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs periodic swinging motion in addition to continuous vibration. The swinging element oscillates back and forth in a periodic manner, creating alternating zones of compression and relaxation on the massaged area. This periodic action complements the continuous vibration to provide a more comprehensive and effective massage experience.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The massager can apply a massage action to various parts of the body, providing a more comprehensive massage experience with its fishtail swinging function, thus overcoming the limitations of traditional vibration-only massagers.
Implementation Method 1
The driving unit is fixedly mounted in the hard outer shell, and drives the swinging element to swing back and forth
Implementation Method 2
a vibration motor is fixedly mounted between the supporting base and the massage part
Data Source
AI summary
The present disclosure discloses a massager with a fishtail swinging function, and relates to the field of massage instruments. The massager includes a hard outer shell, a driving unit, a swinging element, a supporting base, and a massage part. The driving unit is fixedly mounted in the hard outer shell, and drives the swinging element to swing back and forth. The positioning shaft is mounted in the through hole in a rotating fit manner. The swinging element drives the supporting base to swing back and forth along the positioning shaft. Since the driving unit can drive the massage part to swing back and forth, the skin can be effectively pushed for massage. Meanwhile, the massager can be applied to performing a massage action on the skins of various parts of the body, and has a wide range of applications.
