  Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 disclose massage means for pinching the user's hand and forearm from above and below by inflation and deflation of the air bag, and these means are in a posture in which the user has the forearm inside down. It is considered that the forearm can be placed on the armrest. However, the air bag for massaging the inner side of the forearm is provided at a position that presses the wrist of the forearm and the center of the elbow when the user places the forearm on the armrest. Although the forearm can be pressed from above and below, it has been difficult to reproduce a heel that presses the forearm between the thumb and other fingers as shown in FIG. In addition, arm radial muscles located on the inner side of the forearm, long lateral carpal extensor muscles, short lateral carpal extensor muscles ) Or the like was difficult to press.

  Also, if the forearm inside is stood diagonally on the armrest, it seems that the air bag can be adjusted to press a plurality of acupoints in the wide range of the forearm and the muscles of the forearm, but by forcing the forearm diagonally, Since the distance between the upper and lower air bags is relatively narrow, even if the pressure setting of the massage machine is the same, it will be strongly pressed, causing pain in the forearm and relieving pain Therefore, the trouble of lowering the setting of the pressing force has occurred.

  In the first place, the angle at which the forearm should be raised in order to stimulate those acupoints and muscles must be relied on the senses, and when pressing treatment is repeated, the position of the appropriately adjusted forearm is As a result, it was difficult to properly massage those acupoints and muscles repeatedly.

  Moreover, in patent document 3, the air bag arrange | positioned in the inner wall of the standing wall by the side of a user's body among the air bags arrange | positioned by the inner wall of the standing wall erected in the armrest part, It is located relatively above the air bag disposed on the inner wall of the outer rising wall. Therefore, when these air bags are inflated, the air bags disposed on the inner wall of the rising wall on the inner side are the long palmar muscles of the forearm, where there are few important points, It was difficult to obtain a sufficient massage effect due to the pressing of the superficial flexor muscles such as Sakusaku Kumkin) and superficial digital flexors.

  The present invention has been invented in view of the above-described problems, and reproduces a heel that presses the forearm with a thumb and other fingers so as to sandwich the plurality of acupoints located inside the forearm. It can be pressed over a wide area, and also presses against shallow skeletal muscles such as the peroneus longus, long lateral carpal and short lateral carpal extensor muscles, which are also located on the inner side of the forearm and easily accumulate fatigue. It is an object to provide a massage machine that can be used.

  That is, the present invention has a seat portion on which a user sits, a backrest portion erected with respect to the seat portion, an armrest portion disposed on the left and right of the seat portion, and an upper surface of the armrest portion. A chair type having an upright inner wall near the user's body side and an outer upright wall far from the user's body side, and an inflatable and inflatable air bag on the inner wall facing each rising wall A second air bag that is superposed on the first air bag in the width direction of the armrest portion rather than a first air bag that is provided close to the inner wall surface of the inner rising wall is a massage machine. It is a chair type massage machine arrange | positioned in the position which becomes an upper side with respect to an upper surface.

  And it is said chair type massage machine by which the 3rd air bag is installed in the inner wall surface of the said outer side rising wall.

  And said 1st air bag and said 2nd air bag are said chair type massage machines which superposed | polymerize and are arranged in multiple rows by the longitudinal direction of the said armrest part.

  It is superposed on the first air bag in the width direction of the armrest part rather than the first air bag that is set up facing the upper surface of the armrest part and is closer to the inner wall surface of the inner rising wall near the body side of the user. When the second air bag is inflated by being arranged at a position on the upper side of the upper surface of the armrest portion, it is used by pressing from the user's hand and wrist diagonally above the forearm. It is possible to reproduce a wrinkle that presses a person's forearm so that the person's forearm is sandwiched between the person's thumb and other fingers, and to press a plurality of points located inside the forearm over a wide range. In addition, it is also possible to press a thick tissue that is also located on the inner side of the forearm and easily accumulates fatigue, for example, a shallow skeletal muscle such as the brachial peroneal muscle, the long lateral carpal extensor, the short lateral carpal extensor.

  Further, since the third air bag is provided close to the inner wall surface of the outer rising wall, the user's forearm is pressed between the person's thumb and other fingers on the outer side of the forearm. Can be reproduced, and a plurality of points on the forearm can be pressed. It is also possible to press tissues located outside the forearm, for example, shallow skeletal muscles such as finger extensors, ulnar carpal extensors, ulnar carpal flexors, and the like.

  The first air bag and the second air bag are overlapped and arranged in a plurality of rows in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion, so that the inner side of the forearm is divided into a plurality of parts, and the user's forearm is separated from the person's mother. Reproduce the heel that is pressed between the fingers and other fingers in order, and perform more effective massage at the same time or at the timing of expanding each of the multiple acupoints and shallow skeletal muscles located on the forearm be able to.

  And the air supply / exhaust pipe which can ventilate is connected to each of the superposed first air bag and the second air bag, and the air supply / exhaust pipe of the first air bag and the air supply / exhaust pipe of the second air bag Since each air bag is inflated or contracted synchronously, that is, at a timing at which the user perceives the same timing, the user's forearm is sufficiently It is possible to perform treatment with a sharpness that can be pressed and that the pressure applied to the forearm can be removed.

  A plurality of third air bags are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion, and at least one of the third air bags is longer in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion than the other third air bags, so that the outer side of the forearm is divided into a plurality of portions. Divide and reproduce the heel that presses the user's forearm widely with the thumb and other fingers, and the acupoints located in a wide range of the forearm and the shallow skeletal muscles simultaneously or depending on the timing of each expansion, An effective massage can be performed.

  And among the third air bags provided in a plurality of rows on the inner wall surface of the outer rising wall, only the air bag closest to the user's elbow side is located in the vicinity of the elbow of the forearm by being long in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion. Effective massage can be performed on the shallow skeletal muscles such as the acupoints and the long muscle tissue, the ulnar carpal extensor and the ulnar carpal flexor.

  And the air supply / exhaust pipes that can be ventilated are connected independently to each of the third air bags provided in a plurality of rows on the armrests, so that the air bags are synchronized or at different timings, In other words, since the user is inflated or deflated with a time lag that is recognized as a different timing, the user's entire forearm can be squeezed or squeezed in order from the wrist side to the elbow side or from the elbow side to the wrist side. This makes it possible to perform complex treatments.

  And each 1st air bag and 2nd air bag which are arrange | positioned from a user's wrist side to the elbow side, and each 3rd air bag which opposes said 1st air bag and said 2nd air bag. By inflating or contracting in synchronism with each other, the air bags facing from the wrist side to the elbow side of the user can be swung and dissipated in order, so that the treatment close to humans can recirculate the blood in the forearm to the heart Is possible.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the chair type massage machine of the present invention includes a backrest (1), a seat (2), an armrest (3) disposed on the left and right of the seat (2), and an armrest. Each of the rising walls is provided with an inner rising wall (31) near the user's body side and an outer rising wall (32) far from the user's body side. (31, 32) is a chair type massage machine having an inflatable and inflatable air bag on the opposing inner wall surface, than the first air bag (41) provided close to the inner wall surface of the inner rising wall (31) The second air bag (42) superposed on the first air bag (41) in the width direction of the armrest portion is arranged at a position on the upper side of the upper surface of the armrest portion. Further, third air bags (43a, 43b) are provided near the outer rising wall (32).

  By disposing each air bag (41, 42, 43a, 43b) on the inner wall of each rising wall (31, 32) standing facing the upper surface of the armrest (3) in this way. It can be formed into a U-shape opening on the upper surface, and when the user is seated, the forearm is inserted smoothly so that massage can be performed.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the lower part of the seat (2) can be expanded and contracted in three stages, and a lower limb air bag (44) is arranged on the inner wall surface of the user of each constituent member on the lower limb part side. A leg support portion (5) is provided (only the air bag of the lowermost component member is shown in FIG. 1). This leg support part (5) can be rotated upward to a suitable position, can be expanded and contracted to a suitable length, and can press the user's foot by the expansion and contraction of the lower limb air bag (44). it can. Moreover, the backrest part (1) is equipped with a massage mechanism (not shown). The air bags (41, 42, 43a, 43b, 44) provided on the backrest (1), the armrest (3), and the leg support (5) and the massage mechanism are located below the seat (2). Is controlled by a control means (not shown) provided to the user, and massage is performed for each user.

  The lower part of the seat (2) operates under the control of the control means, and supplies and exhausts compressed air to and from the air bags (41, 42, 43a, 43b, 44). A device (not shown) is provided. From this compressed air supply / exhaust device, air is supplied by electronic control so as to correspond to the operation course, pressing strength or pressing timing set by a remote controller (not shown) through a supply / exhaust hose (not shown) which is a supply / exhaust pipe. The air is supplied or discharged from each air bag (41, 42, 43a, 43b, 44). The air supply / exhaust hose connected to the first air bag (41) and the air supply / exhaust hose connected to the second air bag (42) join in the middle and are arranged as a single air supply / exhaust hose. Yes. In other words, one air supply / exhaust hose branches in the middle and is connected to the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42). Further, the air supply / exhaust hoses connected to the respective third air bags (43) are arranged independently, that is, without joining on the way.

  Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an inner rising wall (31) is erected at one end close to the user's body side in the width direction of the upper surface of the armrest (3). An outer rising wall (32) is erected on the other end far from the body side. These rising walls (31, 32) are integrally formed with the armrest (3).

  And as shown in FIG. 2, the 1st air bag (41) is installed near the inner wall of the inner rising wall (31), that is, the wall on the forearm when the forearm is placed on the armrest (3). . Further, the second air bag (42) of the same size is superposed on the inner side of the first air bag (41), that is, the forearm side when the forearm is placed on the armrest (3), that is, arranged at the overlapping position. It is installed. And in the position which becomes a wrist side when a user mounts a forearm, a pair of first air bags (41) and a second air bag (42) and the elbow side when the user mounts the forearm Another pair of the first air bladder (41) and the second air bladder (42) are arranged in a row at a position where the inner rising wall (31) has a total of two pairs of the first air bladders (41). ) And a second air bag (42). In order to treat the user's forearm in a wider range, three or more pairs of the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) can be arranged on the inner rising wall (31).

  On the other hand, a third air bag (43a) is provided near the user's wrist on the inner wall of the outer rising wall (32). In the present embodiment, a plurality of third air bags (43) are also arranged in the longitudinal direction of the armrest (3), and a total of two third airs are provided at positions on the wrist side and the elbow side of the user's forearm. A bag (43a) and a third air bag (43b) are disposed. Further, the third air bag (43b) on the elbow side of the user is longer in the longitudinal direction of the armrest (3) than the third air bag (43a) on the wrist side of the user, and the user in the longitudinal direction. It is arranged at a position closer to the elbow side. The first air bag (41), the second air bag (42), and the third air bag (43a) have the same size. For this reason, the outer side of the forearm can be pressed in a wider range than the inner side of the user's forearm. And each air bag is fastened to the armrest part (3) via a fastener with fastening parts extending from the left and right two places on the lower side of the air bag, and each rising wall (31, 32) is arranged without protruding.

  Moreover, since each 3rd air bag (43a, 43b) is connected to the independent separate air supply / exhaust hose, each is supplied with air, and expands, or the air is discharged and contracts. These air bags inflate or contract synchronously or at different timings, that is, with a time lag that is recognized by the user as different timings. For example, as a mode in which these air bags expand or contract at different timings, a mode in which the third air bag (43b) contracts when the third air bag (43a) is inflated can be cited. By repeating the expansion and contraction, the wrist side and the elbow side outside the user's forearm can be treated alternately.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the third air bag (43 a) and the third air bag (43 b) have the same height relative to the upper surface of the armrest (3), that is, an air bag that expands into an elliptical shape in a cross-sectional view. However, when each expand | swells most, it arrange | positions so that the most projecting part may become substantially the same height.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) have the second air bag (42) in the first air bag (42) with respect to the upper surface of the armrest (3). The portion of the second air bag (42) that is inflated to the upper side of the one air bag (41), that is, the second air bag (42) that expands in an elliptical shape when viewed from the cross section, is the most protruding portion from the position of the first air bag (41). Is also on the top. With this configuration, the pair of the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) are inflated in synchronism with the compressed air supplied by the air supply / exhaust hoses having branches connected to the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42). While the air bag (41) is inflated, the second air bag (42) is inflated and pressed against the user's forearm, so that the forearm can be pressed obliquely from above. In addition, it is possible to sufficiently treat the user's forearm and to remove the pressure applied to the forearm. The second air bag (42), the third air bag (43a), and the third air bag (43b) are the same height with respect to the upper surface of the armrest (3), that is, the most when the air bag is inflated most. The protruding portions are arranged so as to have substantially the same height. Furthermore, one first air bag (41) and one second air bag (42) superposed on the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) form a pair. However, instead of this air supply / exhaust hose, other air supply / exhaust hoses are connected to other pairs of air bags.

  As shown in FIG. 6, when the user places the forearm on the armrest (3) and uses it, the forearm has the second air bag (42), the third air bag (43a), and the third air bag ( 43b).

  Each air bag (41, 42, 43a, 43b, 44) is preferably made of a polymer material that has stretchability and is excellent in air-tightness, such as polyurethane, 6,6- More preferably, nylon, 6-nylon, ABS, or silicone resin is used alone or in combination of two or more. Further, each air bag (41, 42, 43a, 43b, 44) may be composed of a plurality of layers of two or more layers instead of a single layer in order to further improve the air tightness. In order to more effectively press the above-mentioned important point on the body side surface of the user of the second air bag (42), the third air bag (43a), and the third air bag (43b), a polymer is used. You may have the protrusion which consists of materials.

  Next, these use states will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, before the massage is started, the second air bag (42) and the third air bag (43b) do not press the user's forearm. Although the third air bag (43a) is not shown because of the cutting direction in the drawing, the third air bag (43a) presses the forearm of the user in the same manner as the third air bag (43b). Absent.

  And as shown in FIG.7 (b), air is supplied by electronic control corresponding to the driving course, press intensity | strength, or the timing of a press set with the remote control, a 1st air bag (41), a 2nd air bag ( 42) The third air bag (43a) and the third air bag (43b) start to inflate and press the user's forearm. At this time, since the compressed air is supplied to the pair of the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) which are polymerized by the air supply / exhaust hoses having branches connected thereto, the inner rising wall (31 ), The second air bag (42) superposed on the first air bag (41) in the width direction of the armrest portion expands and the user is inflated. It is pushed out toward the forearm. As a result, the second air bag (42) disposed at a position above the upper surface of the armrest portion relative to the first air bag (41) is obliquely above the forearm from the user's hand and wrist. It can be pressed more and the feeling of being swallowed by a human hand can be reproduced. More specifically, a plurality of acupoints located on the hands and wrists, for example, acupuncture points such as Dazai, Shinmon, Dairyo, etc. It is possible to press acupuncture points such as hole top, shakuzawa, kakuzawa. In addition, shallow skeletal muscles such as brachial peroneal muscles, long lateral carpal extensors, short lateral carpal extensors, which are also located on the inner side of the forearm, can be pressed. Further, the inner side of the forearm can be placed on the upper surface of the armrest (3), and the both sides of the inner side of the forearm and the outer side of the forearm can be pressed by the respective air bags (41, 42, 43a, 43b).

  The first air bag (41), the second air bag (42), the third air bag (43a), and the third air bag (43b) are repeatedly inflated and contracted, and sequentially by the person's thumb and other fingers. It can reproduce the sensation of being cheated and massage the user's forearm.

  As described above, the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) which are paired by polymerization are connected to the compressed air supply / exhaust device via the supply / exhaust hoses having branches connected to each. And are inflated or deflated synchronously. On the other hand, the other pair of the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42), which are provided in a plurality of rows in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion and are on the user's elbow side, are supplied and exhausted separately for each pair. The hose is connected. Further, the third air bags (43a, 43b) are inflated or shrunk by independent separate air supply / exhaust hoses, respectively, but they are also inflated or shrunk in synchronism with each other, or are alternately inflated or shrunk at different timings. You can also.

  Therefore, a plurality of rows of the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) that are provided in a plurality of rows in the longitudinal direction of the armrest portion and are on the wrist side of the user, and the other pair of the elbow side of the user. The first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) can be inflated or deflated in synchronization with each pair. Therefore, each pair can expand or contract in synchronization with each other, or can expand or contract at a different timing.

  By the above control, the first air bag (41), the second air bag (42), the third air bag (43a), and the third air bag (43b) can be inflated or contracted in synchronization with each other. It can also be inflated or deflated at different times. Thereby, the order of expansion or contraction of each air bag can be changed to perform massage such as loosening the user's forearm as a whole or in order from the wrist to the elbow.

  That is, by combining the above control, the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) disposed on the wrist side of the user, and the third air bag (43a) facing the air bags. Can expand or contract in synchronism. And the 1st air bag (41) and 2nd air bag (42) which are arrange | positioned at a user's elbow side, and the 3rd air bag (43b) which opposes those air bags are a user's wrist. The first air bag (41), the second air bag (42), and the third air bag (43a) disposed on the side can be inflated or deflated synchronously at different timings.

  Further, instead of the control in the above paragraph, the first air bag (41) and the second air bag (42) disposed on the wrist side of the user, and the fourth air bag diagonally opposed to these air bags. (44) can expand or contract synchronously. And the 1st air bag (41) and 2nd air bag (42) which are arrange | positioned at a user's elbow side, and the 3rd air bag (43) which diagonally opposes those air bags are a user. The first air bag (41), the second air bag (42), and the fourth air bag (44) disposed on the wrist side of the air bag can be inflated or deflated synchronously at different timings.

  With these various controls, the air bags facing from the wrist side to the elbow side of the user can be massaged at different timings, and important points and superficial skeletal muscles located in a wide range of the user's forearm can be removed. Because it can be loosened at the timing when each air bag inflates, for example, treatment similar to human treatment, such as being sequentially crushed from the wrist to the elbow by the person's thumb and other fingers, for example, Treatment that is difficult with human hands, such as pressing simultaneously from the wrist to the elbow, is possible. These control programs are stored in a storage medium and executed by the arithmetic processing unit due to a command signal from the remote controller.

  As shown in FIG. 8 (a), when the sensation of the human thumb and other fingers is reproduced by the expansion of the second air bag (42) on the inner side of the user's forearm, For example, acupuncture points (6a), shakusawa (6b), kyakusawa (6c) on the inner side of the forearm can be pressed. ), Daelung (6e), Shinmon (6f), Uchinoseki (6g), Gekimon (6h), and other areas of the forearm can be pressed.
