Definitions
- the invention relates to a massage device for pressure and stroking massage of the human and animal tissue according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a massager is with the DE 299 11 555 U1 known. It consists of two vertically spaced superposed, rotationally driven waves on which a number of massage and kneading rollers are rotatably arranged.
- the massage and kneading rollers are only suitable for exercising a tapping massage and can not perform overlapping pressure and strokes on the tissue to be treated.
- the invention relates both to massagers, which are designed as a stand-alone device, as well as hand-held massagers.
- Such massage devices are known and consist essentially of a massage body, which is rotatably driven or performs oscillating rotational movements about a fixed axis of rotation.
- the surface of the massage body is placed on a specific body site to be treated and by pressing the massage body, the reciprocating movements are registered by the surface of the massage body on the body site to be treated.
- lymphatic drainage it is important that first of all a pressure directed into the depth of the tissue part-ie, approximately normal to the skin surface-is directed to the lymphatic vessel to be treated, and then while maintaining this pressure, an embryo movement is performed, which is directed approximately parallel to the skin surface.
- this particular pressure and stroke does not succeed with a rotating oscillating massage body after the DE 299 18 677 U1 or the EP 0 978 269 B1 , In the known massagers, therefore, the treatment effect is poor. In addition, such torsional vibrations are perceived as hard and unpleasant.
- the invention is therefore based on the object not only to effect a pressure massage on a part of the body to be treated, but in addition to the pressure also to allow a stroke massage, which comes close to the massage effect of lymphatic drainage.
- the invention is characterized in that the massage body performs an elliptical pressure and pulling movement on the body part to be treated.
- lymphatic drainage By circular or elliptical displacement techniques in the context of the present invention, which are applied with light pressure, liquid is to be moved from the tissue into the lymphatic system.
- the applied here Lymph drainage has a predominant effect on the skin and subcutaneous tissue and should not cause any excess circulation, as in classical massage. Further indications are all orthopedic and traumatological diseases, which are accompanied by a swelling (dislocations, strains, sprains, torn muscle fibers, etc.) Also in case of burns, whiplash, Sudeck's disease and similar diseases, the lymphatic drainage according to the invention is used.
- a defined pressure and stroke movement of the driven massage body in the depth (normal to the skin surface) and length (parallel to the skin surface) of the tissue, the frequency of the coating movement is variable within wide limits.
- the frequency of the sweeping movement is in the range between 5 hertz and 40 hertz.
- the biomechanical stimulation according to the invention is a proven method for years in therapy, rehabilitation, regeneration and prevention.
- general physiotherapy postoperative treatment, neuromuscular problems (MS, Parkinson's, spasm) and pain therapy, short-term success can be achieved.
- MS neuromuscular problems
- Parkinson's, spasm neuromuscular problems
- pain therapy short-term success can be achieved.
- the BISA is a method without stimulation current and chemical substances. It relies on the transmission of mechanical vibration of defined amplitude and frequencies to the neuromuscular system.
- the muscle length change shapes the muscle and changes the width of the blood vessels, which increases the blood pumping function of the muscles. It also affects the mechanoreceptors and thus the central nervous system.
- the massage device according to the invention is suitable for therapy, prevention, sports and elite sports and transmits mechanical vibrations targeted at problem areas. Muscle and tendon shortening, but also pain is quickly reduced and loosened bonds.
- the application is also fresh Injuries, such as Bruises, strains, torn muscle fibers, adductor problems, etc.
- the invention helps to increase the training efficiency many times. Very positive, the training also affects the mobility. In the case of injuries, the early use of BISA can be expected to significantly shorten the rehabilitation time.
- the massager offers a very wide range of treatment options.
- the increased blood exchange in the body leads to an improved supply with oxygen and nutrients, to an acceleration of the metabolism and to the muscle building.
- the vessels are cleaned by dissolving deposits and old tissue.
- the present invention relates both to the design of the massager as a stand-alone device, but also to the formation of a massaging device as a hand-held device, wherein it is important that the massage body executes the said elliptical pressure and tension massage on the tissue to be treated, both in the case of the stationary device and in the case of the hand-held device.
- a hand-held device has only one, elliptical pressure and strokes exporting, massage body to the object, which has about 25 to 40 mm in width and length and which is preferably cylindrical.
- the drive motor for the massage body is not arranged in the massage body itself, but outside in the handle.
- the massage body is formed as a cylindrical, padded body, the surface of which can be applied to the tissue to be treated, so as to enter via the surface of the pressure and stroke on the tissue to be treated.
- the invention is not limited to the formation of a cylindrical massage body.
- the massage body may also be oval, it may be polygonal, it may be pear-shaped, it may be spherical and the like more.
- the surface of the massage body is either hard or padded.
- the otherwise non-permeable surface of the massage body may be perforated (permeable) and on the inside of a depot, in which a lotion, an ointment or a liquid is filled, in the execution of the pressure and stroke massage on the tissue to be treated is registered.
- massage body which performs elliptical stroking and pulling movements
- massaging drum is referred to below as a round-cylindrical massage body. This, however, only to simplify the description.
- the massage device in a preferred embodiment of the massage device according to the invention as a stand-up device, this consists essentially of an upright foot housing, which is connected in the manner of a stand on the bottom side with a base plate and at the upper free end of a pivot axis for the rotational support of a pivotally held there pivot arm is arranged.
- the massage drum At the free front end of the swing arm, the massage drum is arranged, which performs the claimed elliptical (pressure and stroke) movements.
- the massage drum is rotatably arranged at the front end of the swivel arm to ensure that with the rotation of the massage drum any surface points on the surface of the massage drum can be brought into engagement with the tissue to be treated.
- vibration drive for the elliptical movement curve of the massage drum is arranged in the interior of the massage drum.
- the massage drum is designed as a hand-held device, and it is then not necessary to make the massage drum itself rotatable. This is then replaced by the rotation of the hand, which twists the housing to an optimal rotational position for the treatment.
- Characteristic of the present invention is the according to that the surface of the massage drum at different surface areas also performs different elliptical movements with different longitudinal and transverse components.
- the massage drum is rotatably mounted on the front free end of the pivoting arm of the state machine to bring each point on the surface of the massage drum in corresponding engagement with the tissue to be treated, depending on the rotational position of the massage drum, this point more exerts a pressure massage , with a reduced component of the prank massage, or vice versa, an enlarged component of the prank massage with a reduced component of the pressure massage.
- the massage drum is rotatable to bring any points on the surface of the massage drum in engagement with the resting on this selected point of the massage drum to be treated tissue.
- the massage drum is arranged at the free pivotable end of the aforementioned pivot arm, so that when pivoting the pivot arm, z. B. in a vertical position, it is possible to bring the massage drum in the neck area of a person to be treated, standing.
- the pivot arm can be swung out, for example, to be brought into a horizontal position, so as to arrange the massage drum relatively close to the ground, in order z.
- the pivot arm is formed automatically pivotable in certain areas in order to allow a wandering of the elliptical strokes exporting, massage drum over larger body parts.
- the elliptical movement drive of the massage drum via at least two mutually arranged at an angle connecting rod, which are mounted eccentrically with their foot-side ends on a rotatably arranged drive.
- an eccentric, controlled by connecting rod elliptical displacement movement is exerted on the outer circumference of the massage drum, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the Pleuel Gay is supported via radially biased springs to prevent self-locking of the connecting rods arranged at an angle to each other.
- the positively controlled - run without the interposition of spring members - a defined elliptical displacement movement of the shell of the massage drum. Because the displaceable in the axial direction of the connecting rod ends directly engage the lateral surface of the massage drum, it is a direct displacement drive of the massage drum in the radial direction, without elastic spring elements are turned on in this drive chain. This avoids that increases in amplitude of the elliptical oscillation frequency whose amplitude.
- the invention is not limited to an eccentric drive of radially arranged connecting rods, wherein at least two connecting rods arranged at an angle to one another are present.
- an eccentric rotary drive is arranged, which, for example. is designed as a rotary motor.
- the driven, coiled rotor rolls on the with an also helically coiled inside of the housing, the stator, from, and doing with his character axis an eccentric rotational movement about the stator.
- the elastically formed massage drum thus forms the stator axis and is radially expanded on its lateral surface by the rotor rotating inside.
- another embodiment of the present invention is not limited to an eccentric connecting rod drive, but all other eccentric drives can be used, as they are known with eccentric rotary motors (see above).
- the connecting rods work in two directions at an angle to each other, the directions are preferably 90 degrees.
- the other connecting rod also shifts by a different displacement path so that each point on the outer circumference of the drum located exactly on the connecting rod axis makes an eccentric motion curve.
- Such a hand-held device has the advantage that a very compact and little space-demanding structure is given.
- a handle is directly connected to the one in the stub axle, which in turn is connected to the pipe of the device.
- the bearings do not need to be double stored. It is sufficient to use simple ball bearings or even plain bearings. Therefore, it is possible to form the entire massage body with a total outer diameter of 20 to 30 mm.
- the springs are designed as tension springs.
- the tension springs omitted and instead the interior of the device outside the tube is filled with an elastomeric mass, the z. B. may be formed as a gel filling or as an elastomeric foam.
- an elastomeric foam may for example also be a polyurethane foam.
- a massaging device 1 is shown as a standing device, which consists of a foot housing 2, which has at its upper free end a pivot axis 6 for the rotational recording of a pivotally held in the arrow directions 7 there pivot arm 4.
- the foot housing 2 is supported against the ground with a base plate 3, on which the person to be treated sets up, sets or kneels.
