Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to the technical field of appliances used in massages and muscular relaxation.
  • the invention relates to a muscular loosening and relaxation appliance, of the type that has one support shaft, at least one handle and a number of rollers that are linked to this support shaft.
  • Document US-A1-5527247 discloses an exercise apparatus which comprises a frame on which is journalled at least one bank of rollers with an arcuate support for a person's foot.
  • the bank of rollers is of such length as to provide continuous support for the foot as the person's teg is oscillated white the person is in a sitting position.
  • the present invention resolves the problems existing in the state of the art by means of a muscular loosening and relaxation appliance, as defined in the claims.
  • the object of the present invention is a muscular loosening and relaxation appliance, which is used to relax and loosen muscles in any area of the human body and promote blood flow, by means of repeatedly applying the appliance to the area to be alleviated, thus constituting an easy to manage, manual appliance, the configuration of which may be changed and combined using interchangeable means, in such a way that it enables easy access to the areas to be treated, whilst also being highly versatile and easy to transport, given its simplicity and light weight.
  • the same is formed by at least one support shaft, at least one handle and a plurality of rollers, the rollers being linked to the support shaft.
  • the rollers move independently from one another, relative to the support shaft, this movement of the rollers relative to the support shaft being a rotational movement.
  • the rollers move freely and individually on said support shaft.
  • the rollers are formed by cylinders and are linked to the support shaft by means of a hole, through which the support shaft runs, said hole being moved relative to the axis of the cylinder, in such a way that each roller rotates eccentrically on the support shaft.
  • This eccentricity in the hole of each roller and, therefore, eccentricity in the rotation of each roller constitutes a very important element in terms of how useful the invention is, given that it means that the pressure exerted on the muscles varies.
  • This eccentricity is advantageous in that it constructs an appliance that simulates a massage carried out using fingers, where the pressure is not always the same across the entire area to be treated, thus improving blood flow.
  • the rollers are provided with elements that establish contact with the area of the body to be relaxed, said elements constituting stones or other protuberances made from any material, which protrude from the rollers, in irregular shapes, and/or discs that surround the rollers, it being possible for these elements to be interchangeable.
  • two handles are provided, which may or may not be formed in an "L" shape and moreover, may be telescopic and/or be provided with a hinge that enables it to be folded, as they are interchangeable.
  • the object of the present invention is a muscular loosening and relaxation appliance.
  • a muscular loosening and relaxation appliance is formed by at least one support shaft 1, at least one handle 2 and a plurality of rollers 3, the rollers 3 being linked to the support shaft 1.
  • the rollers 3 move independently from one another, relative to the support shaft 1, this movement of the rollers 3 relative to the support shaft 1 being a rotational movement. Moreover, the rollers 3 move freely and individually on said support shaft 1.
  • the rollers 3 are formed by cylinders and are linked to the support shaft 1 by means of a hole 5, through which the support shaft I runs, as may be seen in figure 1 , said hole 5 being moved relative to the axis of the cylinder, in such a way that each roller 3 rotates eccentrically on the support shaft 1.
  • the rollers 3 are provided with elements 4 that establish contact with the area of the body to be relaxed, said elements 4 constituting irregular shaped stones or any other type of protuberances that protrude from the rollers and/or by discs surrounding the rollers 3, it being possible for these elements to be interchangeable.
  • the muscular loosening and relaxation appliance is provided with two handles, which may or may not be formed in an "L" shape and/or may be telescopic and/or be provided with a hinge 6 that enables it to be folded, as they are interchangeable, as can be seen in figure 4 .
