Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

In a general neck massager, the main machine and the massage component can be electrically connected through a lead. The leads may extend into the massage assembly and be electrically connected to the flexible circuit board of the massage assembly. In order to reduce the length of the lead, one end of the lead is electrically connected to the flexible circuit board, and then the other end of the lead is electrically connected to the main circuit board of the host. However, this also results in the lead being easily shaken, displaced or squeezed by an external force, thereby affecting the electrical connection performance of the lead to the flexible circuit board. For example: poor contact or disconnection between the lead and the flexible circuit board are easy to occur.

When a user wears the neck massager to perform related functions, the neck of the user may rotate or tilt to one side, and the like, and the massage component of the neck massager is also easily deformed due to the extrusion of the motions. For example: the massage component and the main machine are mutually extruded under the action of external force, and one end of the lead is easily contacted with the inner wall of the shell of the massage component, so that the electric connection effect between the lead and the flexible circuit board is influenced.

In addition, if the movement of the wire is limited, the wire is fixed inside the casing of the massage assembly, and accordingly, the length of the wire is extended, which is not favorable for the internal design of the massage assembly.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, in view of the above problems, the present embodiment provides a neck massager 10, which includes a main body 20 and a massage assembly 30. A main circuit board (not shown) is disposed in the main body 20, a flexible circuit board 300 is disposed in the massage assembly 30, and the main circuit board and the flexible circuit board 300 can be electrically connected through a lead 22. Illustratively, the flexible circuit board 300 has a first mating end 312, and the end of the conductor 22 remote from the main circuit board has a second mating end 24. The second plug end 24 can be detachably connected to the first plug end 312 to electrically connect the main circuit board and the flexible circuit board 300, so as to reduce the assembling difficulty of the neck massager 10 and improve the assembling efficiency.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the massage assembly 30 further includes a base 100 and a cover 200, the cover 220 is fixedly connected to a side of the base 100 facing the neck of the human body, and the flexible circuit board 300 is sandwiched between the base 100 and the cover 200 to be disposed inside the massage assembly 30. Wherein, the base 100 has a wire hole 102, and the wire hole 102 can communicate with the outside and the inside of the massage assembly 30. Accordingly, the lead wires 22 may pass through the wire through holes 102 to be electrically connected with the flexible circuit board 300 inside the massage assembly 30. It should be understood that during assembly, the first and

second plug ends

312 and 24 can be electrically connected, and then the lead 22 can be inserted through the wire passing hole 102 of the base 100 to be electrically connected with the main circuit board of the host 20, so that the length of the lead 22 can be shortened.

In some embodiments, the flexible circuit board 300 can be first fixedly connected to the cover 200, and then the cover 200 with the flexible circuit board 300 can be fixedly connected to the base 100. The flexible circuit board 300 may be fixedly connected to the cover 200 by an adhesive.

In order to reduce the possibility of poor contact between the conductive wires 22 and the flexible circuit board 300 caused by deformation of the massage assembly 30, the base 100 further includes a receiving groove 104, the receiving groove 104 can receive the conductive wires 22, and the wire passing hole 102 can be located at the bottom of the receiving groove 104. It should be understood that, based on the receiving groove 104, when the massage assembly 30 is deformed, the wire 22 is not easily bent or wound inside the massage assembly 30, and the cover 200 is not easily partially bulged. Therefore, the second plugging end 24 of the conductive wire 22 is not easily contacted with the inner wall of the base 100 (e.g., the bottom of the receiving groove 104), so that the stable connection between the conductive wire 22 and the flexible circuit board 300 can be ensured.

In some embodiments, the massage assembly 30 further comprises a massage element 400 electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 300, the massage element 400 being located on one side of the cover 200 and away from the base; this may also be understood as the massage element 400 being mounted on the side of the cover body facing the neck of the human body.

The wire connection portion 310 of the flexible circuit board 300 is disposed corresponding to the hard connection portion 210, and the extension portion 320 is disposed corresponding to the soft body 220. Massage element 400 may also be disposed in correspondence with soft body 220.

It should be understood that, since the first plugging terminal 312 is disposed on the wiring portion 310, if the wiring portion 310 is deformed, the electrical connection with the second plugging terminal 24 may be abnormal; in view of such a situation, in each embodiment, by disposing the wire connecting portion 310 corresponding to the hard connecting portion 210, the possibility of deformation of the wire connecting portion 310 can be reduced, so as to improve the stability of the electrical connection between the flexible circuit board 300 and the wires 22.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6 simultaneously, in some embodiments, the shape of the hard connection 210 is illustrated as circular, but is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the shape of the hard connection part can also be triangular, rectangular, rhombic, regular polygonal, semicircular or elliptical, etc.

In some embodiments, the soft body 220 may be integrally formed with the hard connection portion 210 to improve the strength of the cover 200 as a whole, such as abrasion resistance, falling resistance, and the like.

In other embodiments, soft body 220 may be fixedly coupled to hard coupling portion 210 to form cover 200 as a whole. It should be appreciated that in this embodiment, it may be convenient to select different materials for the soft body 220 and the hard connecting portion 210, so that the two can better perform the corresponding functions.

Referring to fig. 4 and fig. 6, in some embodiments, in order to facilitate the fixed connection between the wire connecting portion 310 and the hard connecting portion 210, the wire connecting portion 310 has a positioning hole 314, and the hard connecting portion 210 has a positioning post 212; the positioning hole 314 allows the positioning post 212 to pass through to determine the mounting position of the flexible circuit board 300. As shown in fig. 6, the wire connecting portion 310 has two positioning holes 314, and the hard connecting portion 210 has two positioning posts 212, so as to fix the flexible circuit board 300 to a certain extent for the subsequent assembly operation.

In other embodiments, the number of the positioning pillars may be one or more, which is not limited in the present application.

In some other embodiments, the wire connecting portion has positioning posts, unlike the hard connecting portion 210 having positioning posts 212 and the wire connecting portion 310 having positioning holes 314, which have positioning holes or positioning grooves. It should be understood that in this embodiment, the positioning hole or the positioning groove can be used for the positioning column of the wire connecting portion to penetrate through, and this can also achieve the effect similar to the above embodiment, so as to fix the flexible circuit board to a certain extent.

Referring to fig. 6, in some embodiments, the rigid connection portion 210 includes a base 214 and a protrusion 216, the protrusion 216 is disposed around an edge of the base 214, and the protrusion 216 and the base 214 surround to form a foolproof notch 218. The positioning post is located on the substrate 214, the wiring portion 310 of the flexible circuit board 300 can be disposed corresponding to the substrate 214, and the fool-proof notch 218 can be used for the extension portion 320 of the flexible circuit board 300 to extend out. It should be appreciated that based on the fool-proof notch 218, the mounting position of the flexible circuit board 300 can also be determined to avoid the possibility of mounting the wiring portion 310 of the flexible circuit board 300 to be misaligned with the lead 22, thereby facilitating the subsequent assembly operation.

In other embodiments, the hard coupling protrusion is provided in plurality and spaced around the edge of the substrate. The number of fool-proof notches may be one, two or more corresponding to the plurality of protrusions. Based on this, the corresponding setting of flexible circuit board and stereoplasm connecting portion to improve massage assembly's packaging efficiency can be convenient for.

Referring to fig. 5, 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the caliber D1 of the notch of the receiving slot 104 is greater than or equal to the outer diameter D2 of the hard connecting portion 210, and the difference between the caliber D1 of the notch and the outer diameter D2 of the hard connecting portion 210 is less than or equal to 5 mm. It should be understood that, based on the dimensional relationship between the caliber D1 and the outer diameter D2, when the hard connecting portion 210 is subjected to an external force, the soft body 220 is not greatly deformed by the interaction force; that is, the hard connection portion 210 does not move a long distance toward the base 100, so that the connection portion 310 and the conductive wire 22 can be electrically connected well.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8 in synchronization, in some embodiments, the massage assembly 30 further includes a hollow connecting post 110. The connecting column 110 is located at the middle of the base 100 and faces the host 20. Wherein, the middle part of the base 100 can be the midpoint of the base; alternatively, the middle portion of the base 100 may be the middle portion of the base in the length direction a; alternatively, the middle portion of the chassis 100 may be the middle portion of the chassis in the width direction B. As illustrated in fig. 7, the attachment post is located in the middle of the chassis 100 in the length direction a.

The connecting column 110 can communicate with the receiving groove 104 through the wire passing hole 102. When the neck massager 10 is installed, the lead wire 22 may sequentially pass through the accommodating groove 104, the wire passing hole 102 and the connecting column 110, and then be electrically connected to the main circuit board of the main machine 20. Alternatively, the lead wires 22 may sequentially pass through the connection posts 110, the wire through holes 102 and the receiving grooves 104, and then electrically connect with the flexible circuit board 300 of the massage assembly 30.

Corresponding to the connecting column 110, the hard connecting portion 210 is located at the middle portion of the cover 200, and the soft body 220 is disposed around the hard connecting portion 210. After the cover 200 and the base 100 are mounted, the connecting posts 110 can be opposite to the hard connecting portions 210, so that the required length of the wires 22 can be shortened, and the circuit arrangement of the flexible circuit board 300 can be facilitated.

In some embodiments, the connecting column 110 can be a rigid connecting column 110. Referring to fig. 2 again, the main body 20 is provided with an elastic member 26 at a position corresponding to the connecting column 110, and the connecting column 110 can also be used for installing the elastic member 26. As shown in fig. 2, the elastic member 26 is a compression spring, which can be compressed or restored by an external force. For example: under the action of external force, the massage assembly 30 and the main body 20 move toward or away from each other, and the elastic member 26 is compressed or restored correspondingly, so as to improve the user experience.

Referring to FIG. 8, in some embodiments, the thickness of the base 100 gradually increases (H1 > H2) in the direction approaching the connecting column 110, so as to improve the structural strength of the area of the base 100 corresponding to the connecting column 110. It should be appreciated that when the massage assembly 30 is subjected to an external force, the base 100 is deformed to a lesser extent in the region corresponding to the connecting column 110; that is, the connecting post 110 is not easily protruded 216 toward the hard connecting portion 210, so that a good electrical connection between the wires 22 and the flexible circuit board 300 can be ensured.

In other embodiments, the thickness H1 of the portion of the chassis 100 proximate the attachment column 110 is greater than the thickness H2 of the portion of the chassis 100 distal from the attachment column 110. Similarly, the connecting post 110 does not easily bulge 216 in the direction of the rigid connection portion 210 to ensure a good electrical connection between the wires 22 and the flexible circuit board 300.

Referring to fig. 8, in some embodiments, the distance L1 between the wire connecting portion 310 and the bottom of the receiving slot 104 is greater than or equal to 1mm, so as to ensure that a sufficient distance remains between the wire connecting portion 310 fixed to the cover 200 and the substrate 214 of the base 100. It should be understood that when the massage assembly 30 is deformed, the wire connection portion 310 is not easily brought into contact with the base 100 based on the remaining distance L1, thereby making it possible to achieve a stable electrical connection between the flexible circuit board 300 and the lead wires 22.

In other embodiments, when the thickness of the flexible circuit board is smaller, the distance between the substrate and the bottom of the receiving groove may be greater than or equal to 1 mm.

Referring to fig. 9, in some embodiments, the region of the hard connection portion 210 contacting the soft body 220 is stepped. Wherein the step shape of the hard coupling portion 210 may be formed by the cooperation of the base 214 and the protrusion 216. The region of the soft body 220 that is in contact with the hard coupling portion 210 is also stepped. Based on this, the contact area of the hard connection part 210 and the soft body 220 can be increased to improve the stability of the connection between the hard connection part 210 and the soft body 220.

Referring to fig. 10, in some embodiments, the massage element 400 protrudes from the surface of the hard connection portion 210 to reduce the possibility of the hard connection portion 210 contacting the skin of the user, and ensure the electrical connection between the wires 22 and the flexible circuit board 300.

While the foregoing is directed to embodiments of the present application, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made without departing from the principles of the application, and it is intended that such changes and modifications be covered by the scope of the application.
