Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf Massagevorrichtungen mit mehreren in bzw. an einer vorgegebenen Ebene angeordneten, antreibbaren Massageelementen.The invention relates to massage devices with a plurality of arranged in or on a predetermined level, drivable massage elements.
Derartige Massagevorrichtungen sind grundsätzlich bekannt. Beispielsweise werden in Kraftfahrzeugen des öfteren Sitze eingebaut, deren Rückenlehnen antreibbare Massageelemente aufweisen. Darüber hinaus sind für Pflegeeinrichtungen so genannte Dekubitusmatratzen bekannt, mit denen die Haut des jeweiligen, im Bett liegenden Patienten massiert werden kann, um ein Wundliegen zu vermeiden.Such massage devices are known in principle. For example, seats are often installed in motor vehicles whose backrests have drivable massage elements. In addition, so-called decubitus mattresses are known for care facilities, with which the skin of the respective patient lying in bed can be massaged to avoid bedsores.
Im Übrigen sind Massagevorrichtungen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 aus folgenden Druckschriften bekannt:
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Massagevorrichtung zu schaffen, die einerseits eine kraftvolle Massage ermöglicht und sich andererseits durch hohe Robustheit und Geräuscharmut auszeichnet.The object of the invention is to provide a massage device, on the one hand enables a powerful massage and on the other hand is characterized by high robustness and low noise.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with the characterizing features of
Die Erfindung beruht auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, für die Massageelemente einen mechanischen Antrieb vorzusehen. Durch entsprechende Dimensionierung der Mechanikteile kann dann ohne Weiteres eine extreme Belastbarkeit und Zuverlässigkeit erreicht werden, außerdem lässt sich auch eine weitestgehend geräuscharme oder geräuschlose Funktion erreichen.The invention is based on the general idea to provide a mechanical drive for the massage elements. By appropriate dimensioning of the mechanical parts can then be easily reached extreme resilience and reliability, also can also achieve a largely silent or noiseless function.
Hierzu ist vorgesehen, dass ein Endbereich der Trägerarme an Exzentern, die um eine zur Ebene parallele Achse drehbar sind, und der andere Endbereich der Trägerarme an Schiebegelenkanordnungen, die eine Schwenkung der Trägerarme um eine zur Achse der Exzenter parallele Achse zulassen, angeordnet oder gelagert ist.For this purpose, it is provided that an end portion of the support arms on eccentrics, which are rotatable about an axis parallel to the plane, and the other end portion of the support arms on sliding joint assemblies, which allow pivoting of the support arms about an axis parallel to the axis of the eccentric, or is stored ,
Die Massageelemente sind vorzugsweise als Rollkörper ausgebildet, wobei diese zumindest um zur Exzenterachse parallele Achsen drehbar angeordnet sind.The massage elements are preferably designed as rolling elements, wherein these are rotatably arranged at least about axes parallel to the eccentric axis.
Gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung liegen die Massageelemente an einer an oder in der Ebene erstreckten, flexiblen Matte an, die ihrerseits als Trag- oder Stützfläche für eine die Massagevorrichtung nutzende Person verwendbar ist und gegebenenfalls mit einer Polsterauflage versehen sein kann.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the massage elements abut against a flexible mat extending on or in the plane, which in turn can be used as a support or support surface for a person using the massage device and can optionally be provided with a cushion support.
Im Übrigen wird hinsichtlich bevorzugter Merkmale der Erfindung auf die Ansprüche und die nachfolgende Erläuterung der Zeichnung verwiesen, anhand der besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung näher beschrieben werden.Incidentally, with regard to preferred features of the invention, reference is made to the claims and the following explanation of the drawing, are described in detail with reference to the particularly preferred embodiments of the invention.
Weitere wichtige Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, aus den Zeichnungen und aus der zugehörigen Figurenbeschreibung anhand der Zeichnungen.Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.
Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It is understood that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the particular combination given, but also in other combinations or in isolation, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung sind in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und werden in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert, wobei sich gleiche Bezugszeichen auf gleiche oder ähnliche oder funktional gleiche Komponenten beziehen.Preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and will be described in more detail in the following description, wherein like reference numerals refer to the same or similar or functionally identical components.
