Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ultrasonic foot massager in which a plurality of ultrasonic vibrators are mounted on a footprint to stimulate a sole of a foot to contribute to maintenance and promotion of health. It is about.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There are many acupoints on the soles of the feet, which are what is called in Oriental medicine, and it is well known that stimulating these acupuncture points is useful for maintaining health. However, modern people gradually stop walking in exchange for rich life, and the stimulation of the sole is not enough, so various massage devices have been proposed to compensate for the stimulation of the sole. .

[0003]

By the way, in the conventional massage device, the surface on which the foot is placed is made uneven so as to vibrate the whole, a magnet is mounted on the vibration surface, and a far-infrared ray generator is mounted on the vibration surface. However, these simply vibrate the surface of the sole, and there is no known vibration transmitting to the inside of the sole.

[0004]

According to the present invention, a footprint is formed on an upper surface of a housing, and one or more ultrasonic vibrators are mounted at appropriate positions in the footprint, respectively. First, the ultrasonic transducer is turned on and off for each foot.
A second switch and a frequency applied to the ultrasonic transducer,
First, second, and third adjustment knobs for adjusting the amplitude and the number of oscillations are mounted, and the first and second switches and the first, second, and third adjustment knobs are connected to an oscillation device. In addition, a small-diameter ultrasonic vibrator is attached to each finger portion of the last, and further, standard values of a frequency, an amplitude, and the number of oscillations to be applied to the ultrasonic vibrator are stored in advance. A memory is mounted.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS According to the present invention, an ultrasonic transducer is attached to a footprint on the upper surface of a housing, and the ultrasonic transducer is vibrated by placing the foot on the footprint. In addition, since the ultrasonic vibration is transmitted to the inside of the foot, the ultrasonic vibration promotes metabolism of the foot, and can contribute to maintenance and promotion of health.

1 is a plan view of an ultrasonic foot massager according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side sectional view of the ultrasonic foot massager of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is an ultrasonic foot massager of FIG. In the block diagram of the massager circuit, an inclined surface 2 is formed on the upper surface of the housing 1,
Left and right footprints 3 and 4 are formed on the inclined surface 2, and two ultrasonic transducers 5, 6, 7 and 8 are mounted on the footprints 3 and 4, respectively. A first switch 9 for turning on and off the ultrasonic transducers 5 and 6 of the mold 3 and a second switch 1 for turning on and off the ultrasonic transducers 7 and 8 of the last 4
0, and first, second, and third knobs 11, 12, and 13 for adjusting the frequency, amplitude, and number of oscillations.

An oscillator 14 is mounted inside the housing 1, and the oscillator 14 is connected to a plug 1 connected to an external power supply.
Further, the oscillation device 14 is provided with the ultrasonic vibrators 5, 6, 7, 8, the first and second switches 9, 10, and the first, second, and third adjustment knobs 11, 12, and 13. Is connected, and also stores the standard frequency, amplitude, number of oscillations, etc.,
Further, a memory 16 for storing the frequency, the amplitude, the number of oscillations and the like once set is connected.

In the thus constructed ultrasonic foot massager of this embodiment, the first, second and third adjustment knobs 1 are provided.
When the first, second and third switches 9 and 10 are turned on, the standard frequency, amplitude and oscillation stored in the memory 16 are set. The ultrasonic transducers 5, 6, 7, 8 are ultrasonically oscillated by the number of times, and the urn of the sole is stimulated by the ultrasonic oscillation,
Furthermore, it is transmitted from the sole to the inside to promote the metabolism of the foot, and can contribute to maintenance and promotion of health.

The first and second adjustment knobs 11, 12
When is turned more than the standard position, the frequency and amplitude become higher than the standard according to the numerical value stored in the memory 16, and when the third adjustment knob is turned more strongly, the number of oscillations becomes larger. Faster, and the first, second and third adjustment knobs 1
Turning 1, 12, 13 is set so that it becomes weaker corresponding to the numerical value stored in the memory 16.

As described above, in the present invention, unlike the mere mechanical vibration, the memory 16 is preset so as to generate the ultrasonic vibration that does not harm the human body by using the ultrasonic vibration. Therefore, a suitable ultrasonic vibration is given to the sole of the foot, and the ultrasonic vibration is transmitted to the inside of the foot, thereby promoting the metabolism of the foot, thereby promoting the metabolism of the whole body, and maintaining and promoting health. Can contribute to.

FIG. 4 is a plan view of a foot massager according to another embodiment of the present invention, wherein 1 is a housing, 2 is an inclined surface, 3, 4 is a last, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are ultrasonic vibrations. , 9 is a first switch, 10 is a second switch, 11, 12, and 13 are first,
The second and third adjustment knobs are the same as those in the above-described embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted. In this embodiment, small ultrasonic waves are respectively applied to the fingers of the lasts 3 and 4. The vibrators 17 and 18 are mounted.

In this embodiment, with the above-described configuration, the toes of the ultrasonic transducers 17 and 18 have different frequencies, amplitudes, and oscillations from the soles of the ultrasonic transducers 5, 6, 7, and 8. By vibrating the number of times, the sole can be more effectively stimulated.

As an ultrasonic transducer, a matching layer is provided on the surface of a piezoelectric element, and silicon rubber is adhered thereon.
Further, a piezoelectric element provided with a back material on the back surface is used, but an ultrasonic transducer having another configuration may be used.

[0014]

As described above, in the ultrasonic foot massager of the present invention, the foot is placed on the ultrasonic vibrator mounted on the housing, and the first, second and third adjustment knobs are set. By setting it to the standard, comfortable ultrasonic vibration can be given to the human body, thereby effectively stimulating the soles of the soles and promoting the metabolism of the feet, thereby promoting the metabolism of the whole body. It has the advantage that it can contribute to maintaining and improving health.
