The present invention relates to a massager movement, and more particularly to a cushion structure for a massager movement touch switch.
The ways to start massagers are probably divided into manual and automatic ways, where the automatic way is a predetermined part of a human body (e.g. hip) pressing against a massager to cause the massager movement thereof to move to press and switch on a touch switch (e.g. shear pressure transducer) to generate a pressure signal to control the action of the massager when the signal is transmitted to a control circuit.
However, conventional massager movements are configured without a cushion structure, and are usually pressed down not straightly but obliquely to switch on touch switches when human bodies press against massagers, which will causes overlarge shear damage to destroy the touch switches or make them sense inaccurately.
From the description mentioned above, it is clearly seen that the touch switch structures of conventional massager movements are not ideal, needing necessary improvements.
One object of the present invention is to provide a cushion structure for a massager movement touch switch, using the deformability and elasticity of an elastic body and springs and the stable guide function of guide rods and guide holes to transmit the downward force of a movement box to a touch switch elastically and by keeping it in a straight direction.
To achieve the object mentioned above, the present invention proposes a touch switch cushion structure for a massager movement, including: a movement main body, including a massage head, movement box and fixing plate, the massage head configured on the movement box, the fixing plate positioned below the movement box and having a plurality of guide holes, a bottom side of the movement box configured with a plurality of guide rods corresponding to the guide holes, each guide rod movably passed through the corresponding guide hole, a plurality of springs configured between the movement box and fixing plate, each spring put around the corresponding guide rod, and the movement box and fixing plate respectively configured with a plurality of positioning grooves adapted for the abutment and positioning of upper and lower sides of each spring; and a touch switch, one side thereof fixed to the fixing plate and another side thereof configured with a transmission rod, a upper side of the transmission rod configured with a lower platform, elastic body and upper platform in sequence, and the upper platform configured on a bottom side of the movement box, wherein one end of the guide rod is larger, and the guide hole is configured with a stepped portion adapted to be in engagement with the larger part of the guide rod, preventing the guide rod from being separated from the guide hole; wherein a soft cover is put around the guide rod.
Whereby, the downward oblique force of the movement box can be cushioned and scattered through the deformability of the elastic body and springs and the stable guide function of the guide rods and guide holes when the movement box is pressed to drive the transmission rod downward, capable of transmitting the downward force of the movement box elastically and by keeping it in a straight direction. and preventing the massager movement from pressing the touch switch down directly with the oblique pressure to cause overlarge shear damage to destroy the touch switch or making it sense inaccurately so as to overcome the defects of conventional massager movements without a cushion structure.
Referring to
The movement main body 10 includes at least one massage head 11, movement box 12, and fixing plate 13, where the massage head 11 is configured on the movement box 12, and the fixing plate 13 is positioned below the movement box 12 and provided with a plurality of guide holes 131. The positions of the bottom side of the movement box 12 corresponding to the plurality of guide holes 131 are respectively configured with a guide rod 121 movably passed through the guide hole 31, and the space between the movement box 12 and fixing plate 13 is configured with a plurality of springs 122 each put around the corresponding guide rod 121. Furthermore, the movement box 12 and fixing plate 13 are respectively configured with a plurality of positioning grooves 123 and a plurality of corresponding positioning grooves 132 each pair adapted for the abutment and positioning of the upper and lower sides of the spring 122.
The movement box 12 has a motor 124 and a plurality of gear train 125 adapted to drive the massage head 11 to rotate.
One side of the touch switch 20 is fixed to the fixing plate 3 through screws, and another side thereof is configured with a transmission rod 21, on the upper side of which is configured with a lower platform 22, elastic body 23 and upper platform 24, where the upper platform 24 is configured on the bottom side of the movement box 12.
In a preferred embodiment, one end of the guide rod 121 is larger, and the guide hole 131 is configured with a stepped portion 133 adapted to be in engagement with the larger end of the guide rod 12, thereby preventing the guide rod 121 from being separated from the guide hole 131.
In a preferred embodiment, the guide rod 121 is put around with a soft cover 126 adapted to increase elasticity and cushioning.
In a preferred embodiment, the transmission rod 21 is a screw adapted to adjust the height of the transmission rod 21, thereby allowing the touch pressure of the touch switch 20 to be adjustable.
In a preferred embodiment, the touch switch 20 is a pressure transducer.
In a preferred embodiment, the upper platform 24 is larger than the lower platform 22 in area.
In a preferred embodiment, the movement main body 10 is installed on a supporting stand 30 so as to increase the stability thereof
