DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0017] The present utility model is further described below in combination with the accompany drawings and specific embodiments that are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0018] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only for the purpose of description, and may not be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or impliedly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined by "first" and "second" can explicitly instruct or impliedly include one or more features. In the description of the present utility model, unless expressly specified otherwise, the meaning of the "plurality" is two or more than two.

[0019] In the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "coupled" "connected" and "fixed" shall be understood broadly, and may be, for example, fixedly connected, or detachably connected, or integrally connected, or mechanically connected, or electrically connected, or directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or interconnection between two elements. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model according to specific situations.

[0020] Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 6, a massage mechanism according to one embodiment is illustrated, including a transmission part 1 that is rotatably connected with afirst transmission arm 2 fixedly connected with a second transmission arm 3 (of course, in other embodiments, the first transmission arm 2 and the second transmission arm 3 can also be set to be relatively rotatable structures; the second transmission shaft 3 does clockwise or anticlockwise arc rotation taking the first transmission shaft 2 as a circle center, so that a comovement relation among the transmission part 1, the first transmission arm 2 and the second transmission arm 3 is added, which brings a variety of movement changes, thereby realizing massage experience in more angles), and a motor 4 and a speed reducer 5 which are arranged on the second transmission arm 3 and are connected with each other; and a massage wheel 8 is mounted on the second transmission arm 3. The speed reducer 5 is provided with a power output shaft 6, and a treatment wheel 7 is eccentrically mounted on the power output shaft 6.

[0021] In the present embodiment, preferably, the second transmission arm 3 is crescent-shaped (in other embodiments, the structure of the second transmission arm 3 is not limited to the crescent shape, and it may also be of other shapes, such as a rectangle, an ellipse and a conical shape), and the treatment wheel 7 and the massage wheel 8 are respectively located at two ends of the crescent-shaped structure of the second transmission arm 3.

[0022] In the present embodiment, the first transmission shaft 2 does clockwise or anticlockwise arc rotation taking the transmission part 1 as a circle center.

[0023] In the present embodiment, the massage wheel 8 is rotatably mounted on the second transmission arm 3.

[0024] In the present embodiment, a massage control device is further included, which includes any of the foregoing massage mechanisms. The mounting position of the massage mechanism is basically consistent with the position in FIG. 1, and both are in a back rest of the massage machine 100.

[0025] The present embodiment further includes a massage machine, including the above-mentioned massage control device.

[0026] The present embodiment further includes a working method of a massage mechanism. The working method is:

[0027] A motor is initiated to control a speed reducer to drive a power output shaft to rotate; the power output shaft drives a treatment mechanism to do circumferentially eccentric reciprocating rotation; and the treatment wheel and a massage wheel massage a person being treated.

[0028] The features and functions of the present utility model are further illustrated by means of the following explanation.

[0029] In the present embodiment, the following detailed description is made by taking the massage mechanism of FIG. 3 as an example.

[0030] The transmission part 1 can be fixedly mounted in the massage control device in the back rest of the massage machine; the first transmission arm 2 is connected with the transmission part 1, and does an arc rotation motion taking the transmission part 1 as a circle center (the speed reducer (not shown) is mounted on the transmission part 1, and the first transmission arm 2 is connected with the speed reducer and is driven by the speed reducer to move to realize the arc rotation motion taking the transmission part 1 as a circle center); and the second transmission arm 3 is connected with the first transmission arm 2 and does the arc rotation motion taking the first transmission arm 2 as a circle center. The massage wheel 8 is rotatably mounted on the second transmission arm 3, and an end of the second transmission arm 3 relative to the massage wheel 8 is provided with the motor 4 and the speed reducer 5; the treatment wheel 7 is eccentrically arranged on the power output shaft 6 of the speed reducer 5, and does circumferentially eccentric reciprocating rotation taking the power output shaft 6 as a circle center, so that the treatment wheel can achieve a similar "shiatsu" effect when it is in contact with a human body (the "shiatsu" means that when a pericenter of the treatment wheel 7 is in contact with the human body, its apocenter is in contact with the human body after the treatment wheel rotates 180 degrees, and it is the pericenter again that is in contact with the human body after 180 degrees; and since a distance difference is reserved between the pericenter and the apocenter, people will have a tactile sense of "press, not press, press, not press..." in the continuous rotation process of the treatment wheel, thus generating the similar "shiatsu" effect). Furthermore, in the process that the whole massage mechanism moves up and down in a reciprocating manner in the back rest, the moving plane of the treatment wheel is not limited to a plane, and a curved path massage can be realized; by means of changes in a force caused when the treatment wheel does the circumferentially eccentric reciprocating rotation, the massage wheel 8 below the treatment wheel 7 massages a user, so that the user can have a more stereoscopically diversified massage experience, and the comfort level of massage, the massage quality and the treatment effect can be improved.

[0031] Of course, the structure of the massage mechanism in the present embodiment is not limited to that as shown in FIG. 3. Another two structures of the massage mechanism are as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. The positions of the massage wheel and the treatment wheel in FIG. 4 are interchanged. The massage wheel is located above the treatment wheel, but the same technical effect can be achieved. In FIG. 5, a structure having two eccentrically disposed treatment wheels 7 is illustrated. Compared with the structure in FIG. 3, this structure cancels the massage wheel 8, and the upper and lower eccentric treatment wheels 7 are used, but the technical effect that is the same as that achieved by the structure in FIG. 3 can also be achieved.

[0032] FIG. 6, FIG. 7, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 are schematic diagrams of positional relationships between the treatment wheel and the speed reducer as well as between the treatment wheel and the power output shaft in the embodiment of the present utility model. One or two sides of the speed reducer 5 may be provided with eccentric treatment wheels 7, and the number of the eccentric treatment wheels 7 on one side or two sides is not limited. There may be one, two or more eccentric treatment wheels. Of course, a mounting angle between the treatment wheels 7 can be changed to some extent when there are two or more treatment wheels 7. As shown in FIG. 5, FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the angles between the treatment wheels 7 are respectively staggered to achieve a more diversified and better usage experience.

[0033] Of course, the speed reducer in the present embodiment only represents one speed reduction mechanism of a gear connection mechanism connected with the treatment wheel and the power output shaft. Those skilled in the art can understand that any other speed reduction mechanisms, such as a belt wheel transmission mechanism, a crawler type transmission mechanism and a screw rod transmission mechanism, that can realize power output transmission can be used as a substitution of the speed reducer in the present embodiment, and descriptions thereof are omitted here.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 10, FIG. 10 illustrates a usage state of the treatment wheel in the massage mechanism. Meanwhile, there are preferably two treatment wheels 7 in the massage mechanism in FIG. 10. The number in other embodiments is not limited to two. There may be one, three, four or more treatment wheels.

[0035] As shown in I of FIG. 10, in the state, the treatment wheels 7 massage the back part of the person being treated. The treatment wheels 7 are eccentrically disposed. In the rotation process of the treatment wheels 7, the treatment wheels 7 at a position, where they are in contact with the person being treated, realize a massage action of "pressing up and down" (an action direction refers to the direction shown in I of FIG. 10).

[0036] As shown in II of FIG. 10, in the state, the treatment wheels 7 massage the back part of the person being treated. The treatment wheels 7 are eccentrically disposed. In the rotation process of the treatment wheels 7, the treatment wheels 7 at a position, where they are in contact with the person being treated, realize a massage action of "shiatsu front and back" (an action direction refers to the direction shown in II of FIG. 10)

[0037] As shown in III of FIG. 10, in the state, a left treatment wheel 7 and a right treatment wheel 7 are provided. However, one treatment wheel works while the other one does not work by means of control. That is, the left treatment wheel 7 works, and the right treatment wheel 7 does not work (or the right treatment wheel 7 works, and the left treatment wheel 7 does not work). One of the two treatment wheels 7 (i.e., the left treatment wheel or the right treatment wheel) massages the back part of the person being treated. The treatment wheels 7 are eccentrically disposed. In the rotation process of the treatment wheels 7, the treatment wheels 7 at a position, where they are in contact with the person being treated, realize a massage action of "shiatsu" (an action direction refers to the direction shown in III of FIG. 10)

[0038] As shown in IV of FIG. 10, in the state, there are a left treatment wheel 7 and a right treatment wheel 7, and the rotation directions of the two treatment wheels 7 are kept consistent. When the treatment wheels 7 massage the person being treated, the person being treated can swing own head and neck parts left and right (or is forced to swing the head and neck parts left and right through the massage machine or other mechanisms), thereby realizing massage of the treatment wheels 7 on all positions of the head and neck parts of the person being treated (the motion directions of the treatment wheels 7 and the swing direction of the head part are as shown in IV of FIG. 10).

[0039] As shown in V of FIG. 10, the state, there are a left treatment wheel 7 and a right treatment wheel 7, and the rotation directions of the two treatment wheels 7 are opposite. The two treatment wheels simultaneously massage the person being treated. Since the rotation directions of the treatment wheels 7 are opposite, the person being treated will feel a "kneading" action on the back. That is, from V in FIG. 10, the left treatment wheel moves from top to bottom to drive the back muscle to move downwards, and the right treatment wheel moves from bottom to top to drive the back muscle to move upwards. The two treatment wheels drive the back muscle to move upwards and downwards to realize an action similar to "kneading".

[0040] The above descriptions are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not therefore limit the implementation modes and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should be able to realize that solutions obtained by equivalent replacements made by applying the specification of the present utility model and the contents of the drawings and apparent changes shall all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
