Abstract

The upholstered surface (7) is shaped to fit against the back of an average person from the buttocks to the neck and the back of the head, and it has raised long edges (6). It tapers in a wedge shape to a flat portion (6a) towards the buttocks. There can be a head recess (2) at the top, an arched neck-support (3) with radiating shoulder edges (3a), a central lengthwise bead (4), and muscle troughs (5) each side of the latter. There are one to twelve vibrators (8) built into the upholstery and divided around the surface. USE/ADVANTAGE - For massaging the whole back and the back of the head. Comfortable, low cost, and reaches all muscle areas.

Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Massagekissen, wie es seit Jahrzehnten bekannt ist als sogenannte "Rückenstütze".The invention is based on a massage cushion, as it has been known for decades so-called "back support".

Die Rückenstütze verfügt über zwei Schwingungserzeuger und eine konkave Form mit flacher Unter- und eingezogener Oberseite. Wenn diese Form für die Rückenmassage auch günstiger erscheint als die der normalen Massagekissen, so werden doch entscheidende Be­ reiche des Bewegungsapparates nicht von der Massage erreicht. Die seitliche Muskulatur des Rückens (M. serratus, M. latissimus dorsi), die für die Rumpfdrehung verantwortlich ist, die so wichtigen Muskeln des Schultergürtels ("Trapeziuswulst") und die Sehnenansatzpunkte am Hinterkopf, die sehr häufig schmerzempfindlich sind, können, wenn überhaupt, nur in unbe­ quemer Lage massiert werden.The back support has two vibration generators and a concave shape with flat bottom and indented top. If this form for the back massage too seems cheaper than that of normal massage cushions, so decisive Be range of the musculoskeletal system not reached by massage. The lateral muscles of the Back (M. serratus, M. latissimus dorsi), which is responsible for the torso rotation, the important muscles of the shoulder girdle ("trapezius bulge") and the tendon attachment points on the The back of the head, which is very often sensitive to pain, can, if at all, only in Queren location to be massaged.

Aufgabe der Neuerung ist deshalb die Schaffung eines kostengünstig herstellbaren und kom­ promißlos auf die Anatomie und das Relief des Rückens und des Hinterkopfes zugeschnitten­ en Massagekissens, das neben der Rumpfstreckmuskulatur auch die für die Rumpfdrehung zuständigen Muskelgruppen, den Schultergürtel, die rückwärtigen Halsmuskeln und deren Sehnenansätze am Hinterkopf mit der Massage erreicht, wobei eine bequeme Körperlage während der Anwendung möglich sein sollte.The task of the innovation is therefore the creation of an inexpensive to produce and com uncompromisingly tailored to the anatomy and relief of the back and the back of the head en massage pillow, which in addition to the trunk stretching muscles also for the trunk rotation responsible muscle groups, the shoulder girdle, the back neck muscles and their Tendon attachments on the back of the head achieved with the massage, taking a comfortable body position should be possible during use.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruches 1 dazu angegebenen Merk­ male gelöst.This object is achieved by the specified in the characterizing part of claim 1 times solved.

Das erfindungsgemäße Konturmassagekissen ist an seiner Behandlungsfläche dem durch­ schnittlichen menschlichen Rücken anatomisch angepaßt. Das Relief ist dabei so eingetieft, daß die Behandlungsfläche während der Behandlung auch seitlich am Rumpf anliegt ("Rückenkante").The contour massage cushion according to the invention is the through on its treatment surface Human anatomical back anatomically adapted. The relief is so deep that the treatment area is also on the side of the trunk during treatment ("Back edge").

Um eine bequeme Anwendung zu gewährleisten, besitzt das Konturmassagekissen im Längs­ schnitt näherungsweise eine Keilform mit zum Gesäß hin flachem Auslauf.To ensure a comfortable application, the contour massage pillow has lengthways cut approximately a wedge shape with a flat spout towards the buttocks.

Der Benutzer kann folglich entspannt und ohne unphysiologische Abknickung der Wirbel­ säule mit leicht erhöhtem Oberkörper in dem Kissen liegen.The user can therefore relax and without unphysiological bending of the vertebrae pillar with a slightly raised torso in the pillow.

Für die verschiedenen anatomischen Strukturen des Rückens einschließlich Nacken- und Hinterkopf sind spezielle Konturen ausgeformt: Kopfmulde, Nackenwölbung, Schulterkante, Mittelwulst (für die in einer Furche verlaufende Wirbelsäule) und Rückenmuskel-Mulde.For the various anatomical structures of the back including neck and Special contours are formed at the back of the head: hollow of the head, neck arch, shoulder edge, Middle bulge (for the spine running in a furrow) and back muscle trough.

In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung wird eine noch exaktere Anformung dadurch erreicht, daß der Mittelwulst, der Krümmung der Wirbelsäule entsprechend, cranial konkav und cau­ dal konvex verläuft. Innerhalb der Rückenmuskel-Mulde kann aus demselben Grund ferner eine Schulterblatt-Mulde eingetieft sein.In a preferred embodiment, an even more precise shaping is achieved by that the central bulge, cranial concave and cau, corresponding to the curvature of the spine dal is convex. For the same reason, inside the back muscle trough can further a scapula recess.

Für die praktisch bei jedem Menschen druckschmerzhaften Ansätze der Kopfstrecker am Hinterkopf sollten spezielle Sehnenansatzpunkte am caudalen Rand der Kopfmulde aufgesetzt sein. For the approaches of the head extensors that are painful to pressure in practically every person At the back of the head, special tendon attachment points should be placed on the caudal edge of the hollow of the head his.  

Überall da, wo die Bauhöhe ausreicht, können grundsätzlich Schwingungserzeuger ange­ bracht werden, je nach Preislage und Positionierung des Geräts.Wherever the overall height is sufficient, vibration generators can be used depending on the price and positioning of the device.

Bei einer Luxusversion ist es möglich, die Schwingungserzeuger über eine Elektronik zu steuern, so daß sie an- und abschwellend, einzeln, in Gruppen oder alle, nacheinander oder gleichzeitig Vibration liefern.With a luxury version it is possible to lock the vibrators via electronics control, so that they swell up and down, individually, in groups or all, one after the other or deliver vibration at the same time.

So kann der Benutzer die Massageaktion auf seine Schmerzpunkte konzentrieren. Auch programmierbare Abfolgen sind möglich, so z. B. die Massage zunächst von Hinterkopf und Rückenstreckern und dann Nacken/Schultergürtel.In this way, the user can concentrate the massage action on his pain points. Programmable sequences are also possible. B. the massage from the back of the head and back extensors and then neck / shoulder girdle.

Weitere Ausbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Ansprüchen 6-11 genannt.Further developments of the invention are mentioned in claims 6-11.

Die Vorteile der Erfindung beziehen sich in erster Linie auf die gleichmäßige Druckbe­ lastung der hinteren Kontur des Körpers ohne Druckspitzen oder "in der Luft schwebende" Hautabschnitte. So ist auch der Übergang der Massageschwingung gleichmäßig und flächen­ deckend.The advantages of the invention relate primarily to the uniform Druckbe load on the rear contour of the body without pressure peaks or "floating" Skin sections. So the transition of the massage vibration is even and flat opaque.

Für die "neuralgischen Punkte" gibt es besondere Massagebereiche.There are special massage areas for the "critical points".

In Verbindung mit der elektronischen Ansteuerung der Schwingungserzeuger ergibt sich ein hocheffektives Rückentherapiegerät, das eine riesige Zielgruppe in der Bevölkerung hat und für den Vertrieb über gute Verkaufsargumente verfügt.In connection with the electronic control of the vibration generator, a highly effective back therapy device that has a huge target group in the population and has good sales arguments for sales.

Abschließend soll ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung erläutert werden.Finally, an embodiment of the invention will be explained with reference to the drawing become.

Auch hier sind unter den Wölbungen Schwingungserzeuger 8 innerhalb der Polsterung 7 gelagert.The cross section at the level of the shoulder blade recesses 5 a in FIG. 3 allows the relief for the spine (central bulge 4 ) and the back extensors (back muscle recess 5 ) to emerge even more clearly. Here, too, vibration generators 8 are stored within the upholstery 7 under the bulges.
