TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nursing massage, and more
specifically, relates to a floating rotating structure, a personal care device and
a massager.
BACKGROUND
[0002] In daily life, commonly used personal care devices, such as shavers, having the blade
head directly in contact with the human face. Therefore, the movement of the blade
head directly affects the user experience. In the current shaver structure, when the
blade head moves on the surface of the skin, there is a blunt resistance between the
blade head and the skin. It is completely dependent on the human hand grip to adjust
the shaving strength. When the blade head is in tight contact with the skin, the human
hand press the blade head loosely, otherwise, press it tightly. During the whole shaving
process, the hands are in a tense state. After the shaving is completed, there may
be soreness and the experience is extremely poor. Similarly, in commonly used massager,
such as facial massager and neck massager, the massager head also directly contacts
the face or neck, and the contact tension is also adjusted by the user's pressing
force. Although a relaxing massage on my face or neck is performed, the hands were
sore. Therefore, a comfortable and flexible transmission structure is urgently needed
to improve such products and the self-adaptation ability between the shaving blade
head or massager head and the skin, improving user experience.

structure is separated in the axial direction of the first matching groove by pressing
the first hinge, and the separated limiting structure is matched by the elastic restoring
force of the elastic member. In this way, according to different external forces,
the limiting structure is continuously separated and matched alternately during use,
so that the first hinge and the second hinge can rotate or be relatively static, and
in the process of separation and matching, through the extension and contraction of
the elastic member the floating in the extension and contraction direction is realized.
When this floating rotating structure is applied to the product, the user can get
a good experience.

and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation to the present application.
[0017] In addition, the terms of "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes,
and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly

or two more, unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0018] A floating rotating structure provided by an embodiment of the present application
includes a first hinge with a first matching groove penetrating through the first
hinge; a second hinge with a matching portion placed in the first matching groove
on the top,, a limiting structure provided between the first matching groove and the
matching portion can prevent relative rotation and can be separated along the central
axis of the first matching groove, the matching portion is provided with a first central
hole that penetrates to the bottom of the second hinge; an elastic member penetrates
the first central hole of the first matching groove and the second hinge, the two
ends of the elastic member can be pressed against the two external components connected
to the first hinge and the second hinge respectively.
[0019] In the embodiment of the present application, the first hinge and the second hinge
are in a matching state through the first matching groove and the matching portion,
and when the limiting structure is not provided, the first hinge and the second hinge
can rotate relative to each other. In this way, the two external components connected
to the first hinge and the second hinge will rotate relative to each other after being
turned on, which is inconvenient for actual operation; therefore, it is necessary
to arrange a limiting structure in the two matching positions, that is, between the
first hinge and the second hinge, but when a fixed limiting structure is arranged
to keep the relative position between the first hinge and the second hinge unchanged,
the first hinge and the second hinge cannot be rotated, so that the flexibility of
the two external components connected by the first hinge and the second hinge is deteriorated
and the use experience is poor. In the embodiment of present application, an elastic
member is arranged between the first hinge and the second hinge, the limiting structure
is separated in the axial direction of the first matching groove by pressing the first
hinge, and the separated limiting structure is matched by the elastic restoring force
of the elastic member. In this way, according to different external forces, the limiting
structure is continuously separated and matched alternately during use, so that the
first hinge and the second hinge can rotate or be relatively static, and in the process
of separation and matching, through the extension and contraction of the elastic member
the floating in the extension and contraction direction is realized. When this floating
rotating structure is applied to the product, the user can get a good experience.
[0020] The floating rotating structure provided in this embodiment has the above-mentioned
rotating and floating effect, which can contact the skin surface well, and has a good
self-adaptive effect with the skin surface. Therefore, it can be widely used in various
personal care devices or massagers. Specifically, the personal care device can be
a shaver, hair clipper, epilator, etc. These products include a body and a cutting
unit arranged on the body to perform related care functions. The above-mentioned floating
rotating structure can be used in the cutting unit. The massager can be a facial massager,
a facial beauty instrument, a head massager, a neck massager, etc. These massager
products include a massager body and a massager head unit on the massager body. The
massager head unit can be applied to the above floating rotating structure.
[0021] In practical applications, the floating rotating structure can be implemented by
different embodiments. The following describes the floating rotating structure in
detail in combination with specific products.
Embodiment 1
[0022] Referring to FIGs 1 to 3, the personal care device provided by the first embodiment
of the present application is a shaver. Specifically, the shaver includes a body 100
and a cutting unit 200 provided on the body 100. Wherein, the cutting unit 200 includes
a supporting member 300, a shaving unit 400 disposed above the supporting member 300,
a first hinge 500 disposed in the shaving unit 400, a second hinge 600 matched with
the first hinge 500, and an elastic member 800. The top end of the second hinge 600
is matched with the first hinge 500 and an anti-rotation limiting structure 220 between
the top end of the second hinge 600 and the first hinge 500, and the bottom end of
the second hinge 600 is fixedly connected to the supporting member 300. Specifically,
the first hinge 500 has a first matching groove 510, the first matching groove 510
has a first spherical arc surface 517, the center of the first spherical arc surface
517 is O, the first matching groove 510 has a central axis L, and the bottom of the
first matching groove 510 penetrates the first hinge 500, that is, the first hinge
500 is hollow.
[0023] The top of the second hinge 600 has a matching portion 610 placed in the first matching
groove 510, the matching portion 610 has a spherical shape, and the outer wall of
the matching portion 610 matches the arc of the first spherical arc surface 517. Thus,
when the matching portion 610 is placed in the first matching groove 510, the outer
wall surface of the matching portion 610 can better fit the first spherical arc surface
517. A limiting structure 220 is provided between the matching portion 610 and the
first matching groove 510 to prevent relative rotation. A second matching groove 620
is provided in the matching portion 610, and the bottom of the second matching groove
620 is provided with a first central hole 621 that penetrates to the bottom of the
second hinge 600. The bottom of the second hinge 600 penetrates the first hinge 500
and is fixed in the supporting member 300, so that the second hinge 600 is fixedly
connected to the supporting member 300 as a whole.
[0024] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the shaving unit 400 includes a housing 410 and
a hinge cover 700. The housing 410 has a three-lobed shape as a whole with a mounting
hole 411 in the center. The first hinge 500 is fixed at the mounting hole 411 through
the hinge cover 700, and the second hinge 600 matched with the first hinge 500 protrudes
from the mounting hole 411 and is connected to the supporting member 300. The top
end of the elastic member 800 abuts against the hinge cover 700. In this embodiment,
the first hinge 500 is fixed at the mounting hole 411 through the hinge cover 700.
In other embodiments, the hinge cover 700 may also be omitted, and the first hinge
500 may be fixed at the mounting hole 411 by the structural design of the first hinge
500 or other parts.
[0025] The elastic member 800 passes through the first central hole 621, the second matching
groove 620 and the first matching groove 510 of the second hinge 600, and the top
end of the elastic member 800 abuts against the bottom of the hinge cover 700, and
the bottom end of the elastic member 800 abuts against the top of the supporting member
300.
[0026] In the non-working state, the elastic force of the elastic member 800 pushes the
hinge cover 700 and the supporting member 300 to both ends along the central axis
L respectively, so that the first hinge 500 fixedly connected to the hinge cover 700
and the second hinge 600 fixedly connected to the supporting member 300 are more closely
abut by spherical arc surface.
[0027] When the shaver is working, when the shaving unit 400 is in contact with the face
and is squeezed by the force of the face, the shaving unit 400 drives the hinge cover
700 to move downward and squeeze the elastic member 800, and at the same time the
first hinge 500 also moves downward. When the applied downward force is greater than
of elastic force the elastic member 800, the elastic member 800 is compressed. During
this process, the anti-rotation limiting structure 220 between the first hinge 500
and the second hinge 600 is separated so that the hinge cover 700 and the shaving
unit 400 can rotate around the O center of the first spherical arc surface 517 with
the first hinge 500, so that the shaving unit 400 can rotate within 360°. During the
rotation, the elastic member 800 is a flexible connection between the shaving unit
400 and the supporting member 300, making the 360° rotation of the shaving unit 400
smoother; and when the shaving unit 400 acts on the different parts of the face, the
external force acting on the shaver changes. When the external force applied to the
shaving unit 400 decreases, that is, when the external force is less than the elastic
force of the elastic member 800, the elastic member 800 elastically returns to push
the hinge cover 700, the first hinge 500 and the shaving unit 400 upward, the limiting
structure 220 between the first hinge 500 and the second hinge 600 is re-coordinated
to prevent the relative rotation of the first hinge 500 and the second hinge 600.
During this process, the shaving unit 400 floats up and down along the central axis
L, which can better adapt to changes in the facial curve and avoid the hard contact
with the face, which brings users a more comfortable shaving experience.
[0028] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the restriction between the first hinge 500 and
the second hinge 600 not to rotate with each other, and also to facilitate the separation
of the first hinge 500 and the second hinge 600, the limiting structure 220 does not
block the rotation of the first hinge 500. In this embodiment, the limiting structure
220 is designed simply and ingeniously, which prevents rotation in the circumferential
direction without affecting the separation in the axial direction.
[0029] Specifically, referring to FIGS. 4 to 8, the limiting structure 220 includes a first
limiting plane 611 arranged on the outer wall of the matching portion 610 and a second
limiting plane 511 arranged in the first matching groove 510 and attached to the first
limiting plane 611. Since the outer wall surfaces of the first spherical arc surface
517 and the matching portion 610 are spherical arc surfaces, they can rotate without
friction or resistance when they are directly matched, and the first limiting plane
611 and the second limiting plane 511 are arranged to fit on the plane, when the first
hinge 500 and the matching the portions 610 rotate with each other, the first limiting
plane 611 and the second limiting plane 511 are unable to rotate due to the friction
force between the two planes, thereby realizing the limitation of movement in the
circumferential direction. At the same time, the two planes are attached in the axial
direction without hindering the upward or downward movement of the first hinge 500.
In other embodiments, the limiting structure may also include a limiting hole provided
on the first matching groove and a limiting block, the limiting block is provided
on the outer surface of the matching portion and can extend into the limiting hole.
Similarly, it is possible to realize separation on the axis of the first matching
groove and mutual rotation after separation by the matching of the limiting hole and
the limiting block. Of course, the positions of the limiting hole and the limiting
block can also be interchanged, that is, the limiting structure includes a limiting
block provided in the first matching groove and a limiting hole provided on the outer
surface of the matching portion for the limiting block to extend.
[0030] Specifically, the first limiting plane 611 can be regarded as a plane formed by longitudinal
cutting the outer wall surface of the matching portion 610. Since the first spherical
arc surface 517 is a curved surface, in order to facilitate the arrangement of the
second limiting plane 511, a positioning block 512 is provided in the first matching
groove 510, and the second limiting plane 511 is arranged inside the positioning block
512 toward the center of the first matching groove 510. In this embodiment, the positioning
block 512 has a cubic block structure, and the second limiting plane 511 is the inner
surface of the cube.
[0031] In this embodiment, there are three first limiting planes 611, and the three first
limiting planes 611 are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the matching portion
610; there are three second limiting planes 511, and the three second limiting planes
511 are evenly arranged in the first matching groove 510. Through the three groups
of plane attachment, the first hinge 500 and second hinge 600 can be well limited.
Moreover, since the top surface of the cubic positioning block 512 is also flat, a
triangular arrangement is formed between the three positioning blocks 512, and the
top surfaces of the three positioning blocks 512 form a stable supporting surface
for supporting the hinge cover 700 more reliably. Of course, the number of the first
limiting plane 611 and the second limiting plane 511 can also be one, two, or four,
or more.
[0032] In this embodiment, when the second hinge 600 and the supporting member 300 are fixedly
connected as a whole, the second hinge 600 and the supporting member 300 are assembled
and fixed through the connector 900. Through the assembly of the connector 900, the
fixed connection between the second hinge 600 and the supporting member 300 is detachable,
which is convenient for disassembly and maintenance, and also convenient for assembly
during production. Of course, under the premise that the second hinge 600 and the
supporting member 300 are reliably connected, in other embodiments, other detachable
fixed connection methods, such as a snap connection, can also be used.
[0033] Specifically, the second matching groove 620 of the matching portion 610 of the second
hinge 600 is provided with a first connecting hole 622, and the first matching groove
510 attached to the matching portion 610 is provided with a second connecting hole
513 corresponding to the first connecting hole 622. The connector 900 is specifically
a screw. A mounting post 310 is provided in the supporting member 300, and a screw
hole (not labeled in the figure) is provided in the mounting post 310. The screws
pass through the first connecting hole 622 and the second connecting hole 513 and
are screwed into the screw holes of the mounting post 310. The second hinge 600 is
fixed by screwing, which is simple in structure, easy to process and assemble.
[0034] As shown in FIG 9, the supporting member 300 is generally cylindrical, the top of
the supporting member 300 has a step surface 320 with an inward concavity. The step
surface 320 is provided with a second central hole 330 through the supporting member
300, and the mounting post 310 is provided on the step surface 320. In this way, the
depth of the step surface 320 recessed fills the height of the mounting post 310 to
prevent the mounting post 310 from protruding from the top surface of the supporting
member 300 and occupy more space or form a connection gap.
[0035] Furthermore, the number of the first connecting holes 622 is three, the number of
the second connecting hole 513 is three, the number of the mounting post 310 is three,
and the number of the connector 900 is three. The three connectors 900 are arranged
in a triangular shape to make the second hinge 600 and the supporting member 300 more
stable. Moreover, for the second hinge 600, the number of the first limiting plane
611 and the first connecting hole 622 provided on the second hinge 600 is both three.
The first connecting hole 622 and the first limiting plane 611 are alternately arranged
at intervals, that is, one first connecting hole 622 is arranged between the two first
limiting planes 611, a first limiting plane 611 is arranged between the two first
connecting holes 622.
[0036] In this embodiment, the top of the second hinge 600 is a matching portion 610, and
the bottom of the second hinge 600 has a connecting portion 630, and the connecting
portion 630 is specifically a cylindrical structure. The diameter of the cylinder
is slightly larger than the bottom diameter of the matching portion 610. Since the
inner wall surface of the second spherical arc surface in the ball head gradually
increases from bottom to top, the diameter of the cylinder is designed to be slightly
larger than the bottom diameter of the matching portion610. In this way, on the one
hand, the compactness of the second hinge 600 parts is maintained, on the other hand,
it also enables the connector 900 to pass through the connecting portion 630 when
passing through the matching portion 610 through the first connecting hole 622, so
that the matching portion 610 and the connecting portion 630 of the second hinge 600
are connected as a whole through the connector 900, so that the instability caused
by the condition that only the matching portion 610 is connected to the supporting
member 300 and being separated from the connecting portion 630 will be avoided. Specifically,
a positioning structure for limiting the connector 900 is provided on the connecting
portion 630 corresponding to the first connecting hole 622.
[0037] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the positioning structure includes a positioning
boss 640 provided on the outer wall of the connecting portion 630 for the connector
900 to pass through, and a concavity 650 provided under the positioning boss 640 along
the height direction of the connecting portion 630 for accommodating the connector
900. In this embodiment, a semi-circular hole 641 is provided on the positioning boss
640 for the connector 900 to pass through, or a circular hole may be provided, or
the positioning boss 640 is directly designed as a positioning ring for the connector
900 to pass through.
[0038] In this embodiment, the elastic member 800 is preferably a spring. The spring is
pre-compressed between the hinge cover 700 and the supporting member 300. The installation
structure of the spring is shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 9, the bottom center of the hinge
cover 700 extends around the central hole to form a first annular protrusion 710.
At the same time, a second annular protrusion 340 is provided on the step surface
320 of the supporting member 300 and at the edge of the central hole. The top of the
spring is sleeved on the first annular protrusion 710, and the bottom of the spring
is sleeved on the second annular protrusion 340. In other embodiments, the bottom
of the hinge cover 700 and the step surface 320 of the supporting member 300 may also
be provided with recessed holes respectively, and the two ends of the spring are provided
in the recessed holes respectively.
[0039] In other embodiments, the spring can also be replaced by other retractable and resettable
elastic components, such as shrapnel.
[0040] Referring to FIGS 11-13, the shaving unit 400 further includes a cover plate 420
arranged on the housing 410, a bracket 430 arranged on the cover plate 420, and at
least one blade head assembly 440 arranged on the bracket 430 (in this embodiment,
there are three blade head assemblies 440), and a transmission structure (not shown
in the figure) provided in the enclosed space of housing 410 and cover plate 420 for
driving the blade head assembly 440.
[0041] Referring to FIGS 4 again, the edge of the first matching groove 510 of the first
hinge 500 extends outward to form an annular flange 514. During installation, the
annular flange 514 is stacked on the edge of the mounting hole 411. The edge of the
mounting hole 411 is provided with at least one stopper 412. A first avoiding groove
515 is provided on the place of the annular flange 514 corresponding stopper 412.
The hinge cover 700 is covered on the first matching groove 510, and the edge of the
hinge cover 700 protrudes outward at least one block 720 that can be locked at the
stopper 412. In this way, the hinge cover 700 is fixed on the housing 410 through
the block 720 and the stopper 412. At the same time, the hinge cover 700 is covered
on the first hinge 500, so that the first hinge 500 is limited between the housing
410 and the hinge cover 700, making the first hinge 500, housing 410 and the hinge
cover 700 is connected as a whole.
[0042] When the first hinge 500 is installed, for quick positioning, the edge of the mounting
hole 411 is further provided with at least one positioning post 413, and the circular
flange 514 is provided with a semi-circular positioning hole 516 for at least one
positioning post 413 to be inserted when the circular flange 514 rotates. The positioning
post 413 and the semi-circular positioning hole 516 not only play a positioning role,
but also play a supporting and positioning role for the internal transmission structure
of the housing 410.
[0043] Furthermore, referring to FIGS 14, the position of stopper 412 is higher than the
edge of mounting hole 411. In this way, the gap between stopper 412 and the edge of
mounting hole 411 forms a groove 414 that can be locked when the block 720 rotates
horizontally. A limiting block 415 is provided on one side of groove 414. When the
block 720 rotates at a certain angle in groove 414, stops at limiting block 415 and
does not continue to rotate. At this time, the hinge cover 700 is installed in place.
At the same time, in order to facilitate the rotation of hinge cover 700, the second
avoiding groove 730 are arranged on the edge of hinge cover 700 to avoid stopper 412.
The block 720 is arranged at the second avoiding groove 730. In this way, when installing,
the first hinge cover 700 is covered on the first hinge 500, specifically, placing
the hinge cover 700 on the top surface of the three positioning blocks 512, and placing
the second avoiding groove 730 at place corresponding to the block 720, and then rotate
the hinge cover 700 to make the block 720 rotate into the groove 414 until it stops
at the limiting block 415 to complete the installation of the hinge cover 700. At
this time, the groove 414 limits the block 720 in the direction of the central axis
L, and the limiting block 415 and the second avoiding groove 730 limit the rotation
angle of the block 720 in the circumferential direction.
[0044] Preferably, in this embodiment, there are three stoppers 412, the three stoppers
412 are evenly distributed on the edge of the mounting hole 411, the number of the
positioning post 413 is also three, and the three positioning posts 413 and three
stopper 412 are alternately spaced and evenly distributed on the edge of the mounting
hole 411. That is, a stopper 412 is arranged between two positioning posts 413, and
a positioning post 413 is arranged between the two stoppers 412. Such an alternately
arranged structure makes the fixing of the first hinge 500 more stable and reliable.
[0045] In this embodiment, the hinge cover 700 is fixed in a detachable manner of screwing
and snapping in as described above. In other embodiments, the hinge cover 700 may
also be fixed by screw fixing, glue bonding, or ultrasonic welding.
[0046] Referring to FIGS 3, 9 and 13 again, in this embodiment, the floating rotating structure
further includes a flexible bracket 210. The flexible bracket 210 is wrapped around
the outside of the second hinge 600. That is, the flexible bracket 210 has a hollow
cylindrical structure, and the second hinge 600 is located in the hollow structure
of the flexible bracket 210. Specifically, the top of the flexible bracket 210 also
extends outward to form a ring flange 211, the ring flange 211 is placed on the edge
of the mounting hole 411, the circular flange 514 of the first hinge 500 is pressed
on the ring flange 211, and the top outer wall of the supporting member 300 is provided
with a ring groove 350, and the bottom sleeve of the flexible bracket 210 is arranged
on the supporting member annular groove 350 to realize the fixation of the top and
bottom of the flexible bracket 210. The flexible bracket 210 is arranged to shield
the exposed part between the housing 410 and the supporting member 300, improving
the appearance of the shaver, protecting the internal components, and supporting the
shaving unit 400 to a certain extent.
Embodiment 2
[0047] Referring to FIGS 15 and 16, the floating rotating structure provided in the second
embodiment of the present application is substantially the same as the floating rotating
structure in the first embodiment, except that the shape of the first matching groove
510 and the matching portion 610 are different. Specifically, in this embodiment,
the first matching groove 510 has a first plane 518 , the first plane extends horizontally
inward along the bottom edge of the first matching groove 510, and the surface of
the matching portion 610 has a second plane 612 that matches the first plane 518.
The second plane 612 is the bottom plane of the matching portion 610. When the matching
portion 610 of the second hinge 600 extends into the first matching groove 510 of
the first hinge 500, the second plane 612 of the matching portion 610 overlaps with
the first plane 518 in the first matching groove 510. When the limiting structure
220 is separated, the second plane 612 and the first plane 518 can rotate with each
other, thereby the relative rotation between the first hinge 500 and the second hinge
600 can also be realized, and the requirement of the shaving unit 400 to rotate within
a range of 360° in the first embodiment can also be realized.
[0048] Other structures not listed in this embodiment are basically the same as those in
Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
Embodiment 3
[0049] Referring to FIGS 17 and 18, the massager provided in the third embodiment of the
present application is a facial massager. Specifically, the facial massager includes
a graspable massager body 110 and a massager head unit 120 of the massager body 110.
The massager head unit 120 includes the massager head 121 and the above-mentioned
floating rotating structure. Wherein, the floating rotating structure is the same
as the first embodiment, the difference is that the housing in the shaving unit 400
in the first embodiment is the massager head 120 in this embodiment, that is, the
first hinge 500 and the hinge cover 700 are fixed as a whole with the massager head
120, and in this embodiment, the cover plate 420, bracket 430, blade head assembly440,
etc. are not required. Of course, the massager head 121 also requires a power mechanism
and a transmission structure for high-speed rotation, and the power mechanism and
transmission structure are the same as those in the existing massager structure, and
will not be repeated here. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first hinge
500 and the second hinge 600 can also adopt the structure as in the second embodiment.
[0050] By arrangement of the above-mentioned floating rotating structure on the massager
head 121 and the massager body 110, when the massager head 121 is massaged on the
face, the massage position of the face is different, and the external force acting
on the massager head 121 changes when the external force applied to the massager head
unit 120. When the external force is smaller than the elastic force of the elastic
member 800, the elastic member 800 elastically returns to push the hinge cover 700
upwards, the first hinge 500 and the massager head unit 120 move upwards, and the
limiting structure 220 between the first hinge 500 and the second hinge 600 rematches
to prevent the relative rotation of the first hinge 500 and the second hinge 600.
During this process, the massager head unit 120 floats up and down along the central
axis L, which can better adapt to changes in the facial curve and avoid hard contact
with the face, thereby bringing users a more comfortable massage experience.
