Description

  The present invention relates to a massager using human power.

Conventional massage chairs have been put into practical use as chairs that massage the waist, back, legs, arms, etc. by means of electric power. There is a mechanism that massages the waist, back and shoulders.
Japanese Patent No. 3115568

  However, according to the above technique, the massage chair based on electric power requires a power source, has a large structure, and is heavy, so the place of use is limited. Further, the foot-operated massage chair in the above-mentioned patent has a structure in which the heel on which the protrusion is attached rotates, and the part that rubs the waist and back is limited to the position where the protrusion is attached in the vertical direction. It was. In addition, the above-described foot-operated massage chair has a complicated structure, requires a dedicated backrest mechanism that also rotates the chair, and has no folding mechanism, so it is portable, easy to store, and versatile. It was missing. Furthermore, the foot-shaped plate-like pedal of the above-mentioned foot-operated massage chair has a structure in which the foot portion is stepped on with the buttocks and the pressure for massaging the sole is concentrated on the buttocks. Therefore, the present invention, by human power, can be massaged in the vertical direction with respect to the waist and back, can also effectively massage stimulation to the sole, the commercially available backrest is attached to a folding chair such as cloth, It is an object of the present invention to provide a massager that is excellent in portability, storage property, and versatility, which requires no power and can obtain a massage function by human power without choosing a place.

In order to solve the above-described problems, the first invention includes a pedal, a lever having the pedal at the tip, a fulcrum supporting the lever, a shaft passing through the fulcrum, and a pedestal that holds the lever via the shaft, A heel that moves up and down with its lower end pivotably connected to the rear end of the lever, a guide member that guides the upper side of the heel, a massage roller attached to the heel, a rubber band for pulling down the heel, and a backrest Consists of a folding chair made of cloth, natural leather, synthetic leather, or resin seat, and without using power such as electricity, by stepping up and down with an arched or sideways cylindrical pedal up and down barefoot Concentrates the pressure to obtain an effective massage effect on any sole part, and raises and lowers the pedal attached to the tip of the insulator as a power point, but via a fulcrum attached in the middle of the insulator The massager attached to the collar moves up and down while pressing the acupuncture points on the back from the back of the folding chair cloth. Thus, the massage device is characterized in that a massage effect is obtained without fixing the vertical position.
Moreover, 2nd invention has a mechanism which can attach or detach the base and rubber band which hold | maintain the said insulator via the fulcrum with respect to the leg part of the said folding chair, and it guides with respect to a back frame pipe 2. The massager according to claim 1, wherein the member has a detachable mechanism, and has a portability in which the massager and the folding chair are separated and can be folded and transported separately. It is a massage device that has the versatility that it can be stored without folding and storing it, and it has a versatility that a commercially available backrest can be attached to a folding chair made of cloth instead of a dedicated chair and a massage effect can be obtained is there.

  According to the first invention, or the second invention, it can be carried and stored without taking a place during storage, the backrest is attached to a commercially available folding chair made of cloth, etc., both indoors and outdoors, regardless of location, By sitting down and stepping up and down at any part of the sole, massage of the sole of the foot and massage of the waist and back in the vertical direction can be effectively performed simultaneously.

  1 shows a massager body (a) according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the massager attached to a folding chair (b), FIG. 3 is a side view thereof, and FIG. 4 is a guide member (c). ) Is a perspective view of a fixture (13) that attaches to the back frame pipe (14).

  In order to support the insulator (2) through the fulcrum, two side plates (11) are fixed upright on the pedestal (9) of the main body, holes are provided in both side plates, and the rod (3) serving as the fulcrum is penetrated. . An auxiliary pedestal (10) for supporting a forward load is installed at the front part. If the pipe passes horizontally in accordance with the structure of the front leg of the folding chair (b), the horizontal pipe is sandwiched in the gap between the pedestal (9) and the auxiliary pedestal (11) and folded. Fix the chair and massager body (a). In addition, when the leg structure of the folding chair (b) is four vertical legs, the massager body (a) is installed on the lower part of the two front legs with a fitting such as a hook.

  The movable part is attached to one of the levers (2) with an arched or stepped-down cylindrical pedal (1) that is stepped on with a foot, and serves as a power point of the lever. On the other side, which is the other point of action, a hook (5) that moves up and down is attached via a rotatable joint (4). And there exists a hole in the site | part used as the fulcrum in the middle of an insulator (2), and the axis | shaft (3) which passes along a fulcrum is penetrated and penetrated there in order to connect there. And these are symmetrical and the right part and the left part are a pair. Further, a plurality of projections of the tip of the little finger may be provided on the portion corresponding to the back surface of the upper foot of the pedal (1).

  A massage roller (8) for pressing the acupuncture points on the back from the waist is attached in the middle of the vertically moving heel (5). In this state, when the pedal (1) is moved up and down, the heel (5) and the massage roller (8) that move up and down move together from the bottom to the top in accordance with the principle of the lever.

  A guide member (c) is attached to the upper part of the vertically moving cage (5) to press the up and down movable cage (5) against the backrest (15) of the folding chair (b) and to fix the position in the left-right direction. . The guide member (c) has a structure in which the guide roller (7) rotates with respect to the shaft (6) of the guide roller. Smooth and support exercise. The shaft (6) of the guide roller is fixed to the frame pipe (14) of the backrest of the folding chair (b) by a fixture (13) having a thumbscrew mechanism and the like and a stay (12). The distance between the moving heel (5) and the massage roller (8) is kept constant.

  A rubber band (16) is attached to the eaves (5) that moves up and down, and the tip of the rubber band is fixed to the rear leg (17) of the folding chair (b). Accordingly, the eaves (5) that moves up and down is pulled downward when the force to depress the pedal (1) is not applied. Accordingly, the pedal (1) is lifted upward.

  The massage device body (a) and the guide member (c) can be easily attached to and detached from the folding chair (b), and when removed, the massage device (a) and the folding chair (b) are separately folded and stored. And can be transported. Further, the folding chair (b) can be used alone in a normal manner.
