Fig. 5 is the isometric front view of the Massage Department shown in exploded view 4.Fig. 6 is the back side of the Massage part shown in exploded view 4
Axonometric chart.Fig. 7 is the service chart of Massage Department.Massage Department 72,74,76,78 is in identical structure and shape, therefore, in order to illustrate
Understanding, only one Massage Department 78 of citing illustrates.
With reference to Fig. 4 to Fig. 7, rotary shaft 40 is provided with swing module 91,92,93, when rotary shaft 40 rotates, makes massage
Portion 78 swings.Swing module 91,92,93 to include: cam 91, be arranged at rotary shaft 40;Bearing 92, is arranged at outside cam 91
Week;And bearing cap 93, surround bearing 92 and combine with Massage Department 78.When rotary shaft 40 rotates, Massage Department 78 can be by
Swing module 91,92,93 to swing.That is, can be according to the outer peripheral face shape of cam 91, when rotary shaft 40 rotates, Massage Department 78 can
Repeatedly upside towards human body tilt or downside towards human body tilt, and can repeatedly front towards human body tilt or rear towards
Human body tilts.
Massage Department 78 combines with bearing cap 93, thus, when rotary shaft 40 rotates, Massage Department 78 is during swinging
Human body can be massaged.
Cam 91 includes: fixed part 91a, combines with rotary shaft 40;Bearing combining part 91b, combines with bearing 92.Gu
Paralleling in the periphery of the periphery and rotary shaft 40 of determining portion 91a, inclines relative to the periphery of rotary shaft 40 in the periphery of bearing combining part 91b
Tiltedly.Formation is highlighted for cam 91 being divided into fixed part 91a and the engaging portion of bearing combining part 91b in the periphery of cam 91
91c.That is, on the basis of engaging portion 91c, the side of cam 91 is fixed part 91a, and opposite side is bearing combining part 91b.
Bearing 92 includes: inside take turns 92a, combines with bearing combining part 91b;Foreign steamer 92b, can configure in the way of rotating
Combine in the outside of the interior 92a of wheel and with bearing cap 93.
Bearing cap 93 is in two-piece type.That is, bearing cap 93 includes: the first lid 93a, is configured at the side of bearing 92, is used for wrapping
Enclose a part for bearing 92;And second lid 93b, be configured at bearing 92 opposite side and with first lid 93a combine, be used for wrapping
Enclose the remainder of bearing 92.
Shape the be formed as annular corresponding with the shape of bearing 92 of the second lid 93b, but, compared with the second lid 93b,
First lid 93a is also formed with the first joint portion 93c forwards highlighted.Be formed at the first joint portion 93c of the first lid 93a with by
The portion 78 that rubs combines.It is formed with two hole 93d for combining with friction part 78 at the first joint portion 93c.
Massage Department 78 includes: the first plate 78a, combines with the first joint portion 93c formed at the first lid 93a;Second plate
78b, combines with the first plate 78a in the way of can rotating, is configured with at least one massage protrusions 78d;And presser unit
78c, applies pressure to the second plate 78b so that the second plate 78b is towards human body rotating.
Second plate 78b not combines with the first plate 78a in the way of can rotating, but in the way of can sliding with
First plate 78a combines.In the case, presser unit 78c applies pressure towards the direction of human body to the second plate 78b so that
Second plate 78b slides towards human body.That is, presser unit 78c executes stressed knot in the direction towards human body to the second plate 78b
Structure, according to the first plate 78a and the integrated structure of the second plate 78b, can make the second plate 78b towards human body rotating, it is possible to make the second plate
78b slides towards human body.Hereinafter, illustrate that the second plate 78b combines with the first plate 78a in the way of can rotating, presser unit
78c makes the second plate 78b rotate by applying pressure to the second plate 78b.
