Contact Massage Tapping Structure for Stronger Localized Stimulation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing massage products, particularly tapping-type massagers, suffer from insufficient tapping intensity and lack of localized stimulation, especially when used on the skin or inside the body, due to high frequency and low amplitude vibrations, and undifferentiated vibration patterns.
Innovation Solution
A contact-type massage tapping device with a movable tapping body and a driving assembly that allows for reciprocating motion within an accommodating cavity, featuring elastic energy storage members to enhance tapping intensity and localized stimulation, and multiple degrees of freedom for adjustable tapping effects.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Force
If an eccentric vibrating motor drives an inertial eccentric wheel to rotate and drive the casing to vibrate, then the massager can produce tapping sensation, but the tapping frequency is high and amplitude is low, resulting in insufficient tapping intensity
Solution Approach 1:
The massager is divided into a stationary casing and a movable tapping body. The tapping body is separated from the main body and can move independently within the accommodating cavity, allowing it to generate tapping motion distinct from the casing vibration.
Solution Approach 2:
The tapping body is designed with movable connection members that allow it to swing and reciprocate within the accommodating cavity. This dynamic structure enables the tapping body to achieve greater amplitude motion while maintaining controlled frequency, resolving the contradiction between tapping intensity and frequency.
2Force
If the massager is used with certain force onto the skin or inside the body, then the massage effect can be enhanced, but the vibration/tapping feeling obviously reduces
Solution Approach 1:
The tapping body is separated from the main body and can move independently within the accommodating cavity. This segmentation allows the tapping body to maintain its vibration and tapping motion even when the main body applies pressure against the skin or body, preventing the harmful effect of reduced vibration feeling.
Solution Approach 2:
The accommodating cavity acts as an intermediary space that allows the tapping body to move freely while the main body can apply external force. The movable connection members serve as intermediaries that transmit motion while isolating the tapping body from the external pressure applied to the main body.
3Object-generated harmful factors
If the main body (casing) vibrates on the whole to simulate tapping effects, then the massager can produce tapping sensation, but the vibration forms undifferentiated tapping without localized stimulation
Solution Approach 1:
The tapping body is separated from the main body and can move independently within the accommodating cavity. This segmentation allows the tapping body to provide localized stimulation at specific positions while the main body can remain stationary or vibrate independently, enabling differentiated and targeted massage effects.
Solution Approach 2:
The tapping body is designed with specific tapping surfaces that can be positioned at different locations within the accommodating cavity. This allows the massager to provide localized stimulation at different body parts while maintaining the ability to differentiate between various tapping locations, eliminating undifferentiated tapping.
