Compared with the existing massage devices, the massage device of the present disclosure includes two massage parts inserted into the vagina/rectum: the first massage part 10 and the second massage part 20, and the first massage part 10 and the second massage part 20 are driven by the driving mechanism 30 to perform reciprocating linear motion simultaneously in opposite directions, so as to stimulate the vagina/rectum, improving the stimulation efficiency and sexual experience.
Referring to
In this embodiment, the outer housing assembly 40 includes a first housing 41 and a second housing 42 formed in separate pieces. The first housing 41 includes a handle portion 411 and an elongate portion 412 connected to the front end of the handle portion 411. The handle support assembly 50 includes a main portion 501 and a connection portion 502 connected to the front end of the main portion 501. The first support assembly 60 is movably inserted into the connection portion 502 and connected to the driving mechanism 30. The second support assembly 70 is located at the front end of the main portion 501 and connected to the driving mechanism 30.
The handle portion 411 of the first housing 41 covers the main portion 501 of the handle support assembly 50. The elongate portion 412 of the first housing 41 covers the connection portion 502 of the handle support assembly 50 and the first support assembly 60, wherein the part of the elongate portion 412 of the first housing 41 corresponding to the first support assembly 60 forms the first massage part 10. In other words, at least part of the elongate portion 412 of the first housing 41 forms the first massage part 10. The second housing 42 covers the second support assembly 70, wherein the part of the second housing 42 corresponding to the second support assembly 70 forms the second massage part 20. In other words, at least part of the second housing 42 forms the second massage part 20. That is, both the first massage part 10 and the second massage part 20 are made of a flexible material and are supported by the first support assembly 60 and the second support assembly 70 respectively.
In this embodiment, the first massage part 10 is elongated and generally shaped like a hollow rod. The first massage part 10 is configured to perform reciprocating linear motion in a first axis L1 extending in the length direction of the first massage part 10. Specifically, when the driving mechanism 30 drives the first support assembly 60 to move back and forth, the first massage part 10 is driven by the first support assembly 60 to perform reciprocating linear motion in the first axis L1.
In this embodiment, the first massage part 10 defines a groove 100 on one side thereof. The first massage part 10 has a first free end 101 away from the driving mechanism 30. Preferably, the first free end 101 of the first massage part 10 is slightly bent relative to the first axis L1. More preferably, the first free end 101 of the first massage part 10 is provided with a first vibration member 11 therein. The first vibration member 11 is preferably a vibration motor. Therefore, when the first massage part 10 performs reciprocating linear motion in the first axis L1, the first vibration member 11 can also vibrate to improve the stimulation effect. As shown in
The second massage part 20 is arranged aside the first massage part 10 and at least partially received in the groove 100. Similar to the first massage part 10, the second massage part 20 is also elongated and generally shaped like a hollow rod. The second massage part 20 also has a second free end 201 away from the driving mechanism 30. However, the first massage part 10 is longer than the second massage part 20 so that the first free end 101 is further away from the driving mechanism 30 than the second free end 201. The second massage part 20 is configured to perform reciprocating linear motion in a second axis L2 extending in the length direction of the second massage part 20. The first axis L1 is parallel to the second axis L2. Specifically, when the driving mechanism 30 drives the second support assembly 70 to move back and forth, the second massage part 20 is driven by the second support assembly 70 to perform reciprocating linear motion in the second axis L2.
Preferably, the second free end 201 of the second massage part 20 is slightly bent relative to the second axis L2. As shown in
The handle support assembly 50 in this embodiment includes a first shell half 51 and a second shell half 52 (see
Referring to
In this embodiment, the driving source 31 is a motor, and its output shaft 310 is connected to the threaded member 32 and used to drive the threaded member 32 to rotate. For example, the threaded member 32 can define a non-circular hole (not shown), and the output shaft 310 can have a non-circular cross-sectional shape matched with the non-circular hole, so that when the output shaft 310 rotates, the threaded member 32 will rotate with the output shaft 310 synchronously. When the threaded member 32 rotates, the first slider 33A and the second slider 33B are driven to make reciprocating linear motion in opposite directions, whereby the first massage part 10 and the second massage part 20 will perform reciprocating linear motion in the opposite direction simultaneously.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism 30 further includes a first sliding guide member 34A fixedly connected with the first slider 33A and a second sliding guide member 34B fixedly connected with the second slider 33B. In this embodiment, the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B are both shaped like a rivet. Specifically, each of the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B includes an engagement shaft 340 and a cap 341 connected to one end of the engagement shaft 340.
As shown in
When the threaded member 32 rotates, the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B respectively slide in the first helical groove 321 and the second helical groove 322, and thus the rotary motion of the threaded member 32 is transformed into the linear motion of the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B, wherein when the first sliding guide member 34A moves linearly towards the driving source 31, the second sliding guide member 34B moves linearly away from the driving source 31; and when the first sliding guide member 34A moves linearly away from the driving source 31, the second sliding guide member 34B moves linearly towards the driving source 31.
Preferably, the start end 321a of the first helical groove 321 is communicated to the terminal end 322b of the second helical groove 322, and the terminal end 321b of the first helical groove 321 is communicated to the start end 322a of the second helical groove 322. That is, the first helical groove 321 and the second helical groove 322 each extends about 180°. Preferably, the start end 321a of the first helical groove 321 and the terminal end 322b of the second helical groove 322 are adjacent to the bottom of the threaded member 32, and the terminal end 321b of the first helical groove 321 and the start end 322a of the second helical groove 322 are adjacent to the top of the threaded member 32, thereby increasing the stroke of the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B. It can be seen that the first sliding guide member 34A and the second sliding guide member 34B can each slide in both the first helical groove 321 and the second helical groove 322, wherein when the first sliding guide member 34A is engaged in the first helical groove 321, the second sliding guide member 34B is engaged in the second helical groove 322; and when the first sliding guide member 34A is engaged in the second helical groove 322, the second sliding guide member 34B is engaged in the first helical groove 321.
For example, when the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the first sliding guide member 34A is located in the first helical groove 321 and slides from the start end 321a of the first helical groove 321 (close to the driving source 31) toward the terminal end 322b of the first helical groove 321 (away from the driving source 31), the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the second sliding guide member 34B is located in the second helical groove 322 and slides from the start end 322a of the second helical groove 322 (away from the driving source 31) toward the terminal end 322b of the second helical groove 322 (close to the driving source 31), thereby driving the first slider 33A to move away from the driving source 31 and the second slider 33B to move toward the driving source 31. When the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the first sliding guide member 34A slides to the terminal end 321b of the first helical groove 321, the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the first sliding guide member 34A then slides into the second helical groove 322 and slides from the start end 322a of the second helical groove 322 toward the terminal end 322b of the second helical groove 322, so that the first slider 33A moves toward the driving source 31. Similarly, when the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the second sliding guide member 34B slides to the terminal end 322b of the second helical groove 322, the free end of the engagement shaft 340 of the second sliding guide member 34B then slides into the first helical groove 321, and slides from the start end 321a of the first helical groove 321 toward the terminal end 321b of the first helical groove 321, so that the second slider 33B moves away from the driving source 31. In this way, the first slider 33A and the second slider 33B move back and forth in opposite directions simultaneously.
In order to improve the stability of the reciprocating linear motion of the first slider 33A and the second slider 33B, preferably, the driving mechanism 30 further includes a first positioning member 35 and a second positioning member 36. The first positioning member 35 and the second positioning member 36 are opposite to each other and a plurality of guide rails 37 (four in this embodiment) are positioned between the first positioning member 35 and the second positioning member 36. The first positioning member 35 and the second positioning member 36 are respectively fixed to the handle support assembly 50 (see
Preferably, the second positioning member 36 is provided with a first sleeve 361 and a second sleeve 362. The first slider 33A passes through the second positioning member 36 and is slidably received in the first sleeve 361. The second slider 33B passes through the second positioning member 36 and is slidably received in the second sleeve 362. Therefore, the reciprocating linear motion of the first slider 33A and the second slider 33B is more stable.
In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 30 further includes a first connecting shaft 38A and a second connecting shaft 38B. The first connecting shaft 38A is used to connect the first slider 33A and the first support assembly 60 (and thus connect the first slider 33A and the first massager part 10), and the second connecting shaft 38B is used to connect the second slider 33B and the second support assembly 70 (and thus connect the second slider 33B and the second massage part 20).
