Adjustable Head Massager Helmet with Distance Mechanism
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional head massagers have an unchangeable helmet size, leading to discomfort for users and a complex, monotonous massage experience due to their rigid structure.
Innovation Solution
The head massager incorporates a distance adjustment device with a seat, drive gear, reset elastic member, and gear rings to adjust the helmet size, combined with massage pads, gasbags, and a control system for customizable massage techniques.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the helmet size is made unchangeable, then the structure is simple, but users with different head sizes cannot feel comfortable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the helmet size adjustable through a mechanical expansion structure. The helmet framework includes expandable components that allow the helmet circumference to be changed from a fixed size to an adjustable size, enabling adaptation to different user head sizes while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the helmet into modular components including a helmet framework, helmet liner, and adjustable expansion mechanisms. This segmentation allows the helmet size to be changed by adjusting specific segments (the expansion structure) without redesigning the entire helmet, thus achieving adaptability without excessive complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the massage device has a fixed structure, then the device is simple, but the massage way is monotonous
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by incorporating adjustable massage components including variable pressure mechanisms, adjustable vibration frequencies, and modifiable massage pad configurations. These dynamic elements allow the massage technique to be customized and varied during use, preventing monotony while keeping the structural additions minimal.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies universality by designing a multi-functional massage device that can perform multiple massage techniques (pressure massage, vibration massage, heat massage) within a single integrated structure. This allows one device to provide varied massage experiences without requiring multiple separate devices, thus increasing adaptability while controlling overall complexity.
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 adjustable helmet provides comfort for users of varying head sizes, and the integrated massage system offers a more effective and varied massage experience through adjustable pressure, vibration, and heat.
Implementation Method 1
A reset elastic member is partially received in the drive gear along the axis of the knob. The reset elastic member abuts against the knob for providing a restitution force to the knob after the knob being inward pressed.

AI summary
A head massager includes a helmet (10) having a first parallel hoop (11) and a second parallel hoop (12) connected to each other for forming a ring surrounding the user's head. The helmet (10) has a first meridian hoop (21) and a second meridian hoop (22) connected to each other to form an arc structure and hang the head massager on user's head. The distance adjustment devices (3) are provided to connect the first parallel hoop (11), the second parallel hoop (12), the first meridian hoop (21), and the second meridian hoop (22) together for adjusting the size of the helmet (10) to provide a comfortable fit to user's head.
