[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pot rubbing device for manually activating a lever device having a rubbing pin to rub a pot (reflection band) of a sole or a palm.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional pot crimping device is a method in which a rod-shaped or hook-bar-shaped device having a pointed tip as a pressing portion is gripped by hand, pushed or pulled, and pressed, and a step provided on a tread plate or the like is stepped on. There are many prior arts, such as a method of pressing and pressing, a method of pressing and pressing a foot against a rotating body having a convex portion, and a method of pressing and pressing with a lever device having a projection. However, considering that there are many elderly people and handicapped people,
It is desirable to use equipment that is easy to use and that is less likely to cause danger or accidents. It uses no power and is a hand-operated lever that can also be used for hand movements. What can be used is good. However, the prior art does not sufficiently satisfy the above. (For example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-23541, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 6
No. 13830, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 60-155533, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 6-29533, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 62-172440, etc.).

[0003] To summarize the common problems of the above-mentioned prior art, most of the conventional appliances are about half the length (size) from their life-size, and the weight is considerable. So not only use, but also preparation (preparation), cleaning up (storage)
However, there is a disadvantage that it cannot be used easily (anytime, anywhere, immediately). Also, in the prior art, due to its configuration, there is little or no surface on which the sole to be rubbed is placed, so that the foot is shaken (swayed) during the rubbing, and the correspondence (coincidence) between the projection (pin) and the pot is matched. There is a drawback that can not be smooth. In particular, in the case of a device that is used while sleeping, the pot and the projection (pin) must be matched (matched) with the foot floating in the air. In addition, there are instruments that need to directly exert a large pulling force for rubbing, and they are fascinated by them, and there are many things that do not provide sufficient satisfaction by rubbing. From the above, it is easy to become something that does not lead to permanent use.

[0004]

[0018]

According to the crucible pressing device of the first aspect, since the pressing pin is made to be one and the periphery thereof is used as a stage,
The feet or the like to be pressed and rubbed always contact the stage somewhere, and the feet are less likely to shake (sway). Accordingly, it is possible to use the pot safely without worrying about matching (matching) the pot and the pressing pin. Also, when raising and lowering the pressing pin on the stage and sliding the sole on top of it, the stage also prevents the foot from swaying and enables smooth pressing. Therefore, the sensory satisfaction is also high.

Further, in the crucible pressing device of claim 1,
The lever member deployed in the working space of the pedestal has a fulcrum placed at the end of the working space, the opposite end as the fulcrum, and a lever pin with a pressing pin between the fulcrum and the fulcrum. Compared with the method, the pressing pin can be set at the center of the stage or near the center. In addition, it is possible to shorten the length of the lever member and the base in the longitudinal direction,
This contributes to downsizing of the present invention. Therefore, in the present invention, it is possible to reduce the size and weight of the pedestal to a maximum length (maximum diameter) of about ten and several centimeters and a total weight of the crucible pressing and rubbing device of approximately 300 g. This eliminates the burden (burden) of using (pressing), cleaning up (storage), and the like, and enables immediate use at any time without any hassle. In addition, storage space is not particularly required, and no matter where it is placed, it does not cause a major problem.

Further, in the first aspect of the present invention, the force generated by grasping and releasing (relaxing) the pulling ring support and the pulling ring is transmitted to the lever member through both the outer and inner wires. There is an advantage that the movement is static and the user can concentrate his / her attention only on the pressing and rubbing of the pot, as compared with a conventional appliance in which the movement of the operation hand is large. In addition, in this method, the user only has to mechanically repeat grasping and releasing (relaxation) of the grip portion, and no burden is imposed on anyone. In addition, the operation of the grip portion is effective as a secondary but effective movement of a hand or a finger which has attracted attention in recent years.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the pedestal is slightly lengthened in the longitudinal direction, and the lever member, the pressing pin, and the other constituent members are each two. In addition to improving the pressing efficiency, the satisfaction is also high. Of the above,
In particular, in the pressing of the left and right sides alternately, the pressing can be performed rhythmically, the degree of sensory satisfaction is large, and the pressing effect is excellent. The other effects are the same as those of the first aspect.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the pot rubbing device and the chair are always integrated, so that preparation, use, and disposal (storage and storage) at the time of use reduce the burden and trouble. Without being accompanied, it was made to be done immediately and easily, especially,
It functions effectively for the rehabilitation and health maintenance of people who enter the facility, such as the elderly and the disabled, and is considered to be the gospel. The other effects are the same as those of the first aspect.

The pot pressing and rubbing device of the present invention eliminates the drawbacks of the prior art "big, heavy, unwieldy (complicated)" and makes it "small, light, simple" so that anyone can use it instantly at any time. Since it is easy to use, it is expected that the user will use it permanently.
