Description

  The present invention relates to a massage machine having a pressing mechanism for treating a treatment site such as a user's back in an inward or outward direction of a body with an inflatable bag that expands or contracts by supplying and discharging compressed air. is there.

  Conventionally, in a massage machine, by supplying compressed air to an expansion and contraction bag connected to a hollow hose extending from a compressed air supply and discharge device, the expansion and contraction bag is inflated and the body shoulder, back, One that presses and treats each treatment site such as the lower back, buttocks, thighs, and legs is widely known.

  For example, Patent Document 1 discloses that an inflatable bag structure of a treatment machine includes an inflatable portion having an inflatable inner space and a non-inflatable portion that is provided at a peripheral portion of the inflatable portion. A flat and flat bag-like inflatable bag is overlaid, and one side of the non-inflatable and inflatable edges of both inflatable and inflatable bags is fixed to form an overlaid bag, and one of the overlaid bag A structure in which the other side of the non-inflatable / deflated bag of the inflatable / deflated bag is fixed to a treatment device so that the inflatable / deflated bags of the inflatable / deflated bag are inflated / expanded simultaneously or individually is disclosed.

  Then, when the above-described configuration is expanded and contracted, for example, when two overlapping expanded and contracted bags are stacked on the horizontal plane and pressed upward toward the user, only the upper expansion / contraction part is expanded. And the expansion / contraction part inflates while tilting one side obliquely from the horizontal state, and when only the lower expansion / contraction part is inflated, the other side obliquely extends from the horizontal state to the user direction. Inflating while tilting, it is possible to bring a feeling of treatment such as stagnation treatment to the user's treatment site, and by selecting the upper and lower expansion / contraction portions, the expansion / contraction according to the user's desire It is disclosed that treatment in a direction can be performed.

  In addition, when the two upper and lower inflated and inflated portions of the inflated and inflated bag are simultaneously inflated and inflated, it is possible to perform a powerful pressing treatment that inflates perpendicularly to the user direction. When the upper and lower expansion / contraction portions are sequentially expanded / contracted, the upper expansion / contraction portion expands while being inclined obliquely to one side in the user direction, and then the lower expansion / contraction portion is expanded. It is disclosed that it is possible to perform a kneading treatment, that is, a kneading treatment, by repeating an operation of performing an inflating operation while inclining obliquely on the other side of the user direction.

JP 2008-224

  In Patent Document 1, the inflatable and inflatable bags are overlapped on the upper and lower sheets, and the upper inflatable and inflatable bags and the lower inflatable and inflatable bag are inflated and inflated at the same time, whereby itching treatment or strong pressing treatment is performed on the treatment site. It is disclosed that it can be done. However, for example, when only the upper inflatable bag is inflated and then the upper inflatable bag is deflated and the lower inflatable bag is inflated to perform the stagnation treatment on the treatment site, If the volume of the inflatable bag on the lower side is greatly different from that of the lower inflatable bag, in order to squeeze evenly in the treatment area, the upper and lower inflatable bags must have the same capacity or almost the same capacity. However, in order to perform sufficient treatment at the treatment site, each of the upper and lower inflatable bags requires a predetermined capacity or more, so it takes time to inflate and shrink each of the upper and lower inflatable bags. There was a limit to the operating speed of performing.

  In addition, when the lower inflatable bag is inflated with the upper inflatable bag being deflated, the lower inflatable bag is placed on the treatment site via the deflated upper inflatable bag. In order to press, the user had a different treatment feeling from the case where the upper inflatable bag was pressed against the treatment site by inflation.

  In the structure where the lower inflatable bag and the upper inflatable bag are in direct contact with each other and inflated and deflated, when both the upper and lower inflatable bags are inflated, Since the other inflating and shrinking bag is recessed into the other inflating and shrinking bag, the mutual pressing force is canceled out, and it is difficult to obtain a desired pressing force. In addition, since the inflatable bag is easily deformed even when a pressing force is obtained by inflation, the contact surface of the overlaid inflatable bag is also easily deformed, and a desired treatment site for the user can be obtained. It was difficult to press from an angle.

  Therefore, the present invention has been invented in view of the above-described problems, and can perform fast stagnation treatment on the user's treatment site, and even treatment without bias when performing stagnation treatment. A massage machine that can give a feeling to the user and sufficiently conveys the expanding force of the inflating and deflating bag to the user even when a strong pressing treatment is applied to the user's treatment site, and presses the treatment site from a desired pressing angle. It is an issue to provide.

  That is, the present invention includes a treatment inflatable bag that presses the user's body by supplying air, a support member that is in contact with the treatment inflatable bag and is made of a material harder than the treatment inflatable bag, A massage machine in which a plurality of actuators that push the treatment inflating and deflating bags through the support member are arranged in correspondence with the treatment site of the user.

  And said actuator is said massage machine which is the expansion / contraction bag for a drive in which the capacity | capacitance of an air chamber is smaller than the said expansion / contraction bag for treatment, and expansion | swelling or contraction is possible by air supply / exhaust.

  And it is said massage machine in which the said supporting member is a plate shape curved in S shape by sectional view.

  In the massage machine, the central axis in the vertical direction of at least two of the actuators and the central axis of the treatment inflatable bag are not aligned on a straight line.

  A treatment inflatable bag that presses the user's body by supplying air, a support member that is in contact with the treatment inflatable bag and is made of a material harder than the treatment inflatable bag, and via the support member By arranging a plurality of actuators that push the treatment inflation / deflation bag in correspondence with the treatment site of the user, the treatment inflation / deflation bag is inflated and contracted one by one when switching the treatment method and timing. Even if it does not perform, since the method and timing of those treatments can be switched by operation | movement of a some actuator, treatments, such as a massage treatment, can be performed quickly with respect to a user's treatment site | part.

  In addition, since the inflatable bag that is pressed against the user's treatment site is always an inflatable bag for treatment, even if the treatment site is treated from a different direction by controlling the actuator, the same treatment feeling is provided to the user. Can be given to.

  Furthermore, since the treatment inflatable bag receives force from a plurality of actuators via a support member using a material harder than the treatment inflatable bag, when operating the actuator to transmit force to the treatment inflatable bag The actuator can be pressed against the user's treatment site with a desired pressing force without being pushed into the treatment inflating and deflating bag and without reducing the pressing force of the treating inflating and deflating bag. Similarly, it is possible to press the user's treatment site from a desired angle.

  The actuator is a drive inflatable bag having a smaller capacity of the air chamber than the treatment inflatable bag and can be inflated or shrunk by air supply / exhaust, so that the actuator is compressed into the inflatable bag for treatment. It is possible to quickly perform expansion or contraction using a device that sends air. Further, the weight can be reduced as compared with the case of using an actuator that is configured using metal parts and is operated by electricity.

  In addition, since the support member has a plate shape that is curved in an S shape in a sectional view, the support member can be pressed against the user's treatment site with a desired pressing force and angle, and is curved. The driving expansion / contraction bag can be helped to be rapidly contracted by the elastic force of the support member returning to the original state. Thereby, it can assist so that the press interval and press angle of the expansion / contraction bag for treatment can be changed quickly.

  Further, the central axis in the vertical direction of the at least two actuators and the central axis of the treatment inflation / deflation bag are not aligned with each other, so that the treatment inflation / deflation bag has different angles at the user's treatment site. Can be pressed from.

For this reason, for example, the compressed air supplied from the air supply / exhaust device is sent to the inflatable bag (41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47) through the hose, whereby the inflatable bag ( 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47) can expand.

 In this embodiment, the treatment inflatable bag (41) is a chair type massage machine provided at positions corresponding to the treatment sites on both the left and right backs and shoulders of the user. The chair (41) may be a chair type massage machine provided at a position corresponding to the treatment site of the user's waist, forearm, buttocks, or leg. And a mat type massage machine that is used in a state where the user is sleeping provided at a position corresponding to the treatment site of the user's shoulder, upper arm, waist, forearm, buttocks, thigh, or leg. It may be.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the backrest plate (11) has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is mounted on the backrest portion (1), and a treatment element (not shown) that massages the user's back is provided on the user's back. The central portion is perforated in a substantially rectangular shape. And in the backrest board (11), in order to store the treatment inflatable bag (41) which can press these treatment site | parts in the position corresponding to the treatment site | part of both a user's right and left shoulder part and upper arm A depression is provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the treatment inflatable bag (41) has a bag shape in which the peripheral portions of two substantially rectangular materials whose corners are cut into an arc shape are joined together. A hose (not shown) extending from the air supply / exhaust device is connected. And the treatment inflatable bag (41) is in contact with one end side of the support member (411) curved in an S shape in a cross-sectional view. Further, in this embodiment, the treatment inflatable bag (41) is not fixed to the backrest plate (11), but is not limited to this, in order to fix the backrest plate (11), It may be connected to the backrest plate (11) to the extent that it does not interfere with the treatment of the user's treatment site, and the user's treatment site is pressed in order to be fixed to the support member (411). May be bonded to the support member (411) with an adhesive or the like on the surface of the opposite treatment inflatable bag (41). 2 to 4, the portion corresponding to the user's right shoulder is shown in an enlarged manner, but the same configuration is also provided symmetrically in the portion corresponding to the user's left shoulder.

  The support member (411) is a single flat plate having a cross section curved in the same shape as an S-shaped alphabet, and is embedded in the recess of the backrest plate (11). A treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) is provided on the S-shaped upper surface portion of the support member (411). If it is the upper surface of a support member (411), it will be supported by the support member (411) when the medical expansion / contraction bag (41) expand | swells, and a user's treatment site | part will be pressed, without reducing a pressing force. be able to. Although not shown, the support member (411) is fixed to the backrest plate (11) with a fastener or the like. The support member (411) may be any material that is harder than the drive inflation / deflation bags (412a, 412b) and can be deformed by the expansion of the drive inflation / deflation bags (412a, 412b). Even when a metal such as a stainless steel plate or a polymer material such as polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyamide, polycarbonate, polybutylene terephthalate, or polyacetal is used as the material of (411), each inflatable bag can be supported. At the same time, it may be deformable in accordance with the expansion and contraction of the expansion and contraction bag. Note that the shape of the support member (411) is not limited to a single flat plate curved, and may be a plurality of connected plates. In this case, the curved portion is elastic such as an elastomer. A material that does not easily break may be used.

  The drive expansion / contraction bag (412a, 412b) as an actuator has a bag shape in which the peripheral portions of two substantially rectangular materials whose corners are cut into an arc shape are joined together. The capacity is smaller than the capacity of the air chamber of the treatment inflatable bag (41). The drive inflation / deflation bag (412a, 412b) has a smaller capacity of the air chamber than the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41), so that it can be quickly inflated using a device that sends compressed air to the treatment inflation / deflation bag. The contraction operation can be performed, and further, the weight can be reduced as compared with the case of using an actuator that is configured by using a metal part and is electrically operated.

  And the drive expansion / contraction bag (412a, 412b) is provided in the curved inside of the support member (411) curved in S shape. Accordingly, when the drive inflating and deflating bags (412a and 412b) are inflated, the support member (411) is deformed by the pressure (air pressure) inside the driving inflating and deflating bags (412a and 412b), and the support member (411) is deformed. The treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) provided on the upper surface can be pushed out in an appropriate direction. Further, if the support member (411) is formed in an S shape, the drive expansion / contraction disposed inside the S shape by an elastic force for returning to the curved support member (411). The bag (412a, 412b) can be assisted to rapidly contract, and the pressing interval of the treatment inflating and deflating bags and the pressing angle to the treatment site can be quickly changed. As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the support member (11) has a curved portion of the support member (11) near the attachment portion of the treatment inflatable bag (41). It arrange | positions so that it may become the side (left side of FIG. 2 paper surface), and the press angle of the treatment inflatable bag (41) becomes easy to match a user's (A) body shape.

Then, the respective center axes in the vertical direction when the respective drive inflatable bags (412a, 412b) are provided on the backrest plate (11), and the treatment inflatable bags (41) on the backrest plate (11). The central axis in the vertical direction when provided is not aligned on a straight line.

  That is, in FIG. 2, the central axis in the vertical direction of each drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b) and treatment inflatable bag (41) is an axis extending in the front direction from the paper surface and in the rear side direction from the paper surface. However, their axes do not line up on a straight line extending in the vertical direction of the page. In this way, by shifting the central axis, each of the drive inflatable and inflatable bags (412a, 412b) is inflated alternately by a control device (not shown) or inflated at the same time. 41) can be changed, and the back and shoulders of the user can be pressed from at least two directions by the treatment inflating and deflating bags (41). Further, when assembling the drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b), by appropriately setting the interval between the central axes in the vertical direction of the drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b), the treatment inflatable bag (41) The pressing angle can be adjusted as appropriate, and the pressing treatment with the inflating and deflating bag for treatment (41) can be performed in accordance with the shape of the body part of the user (A).

  In this embodiment, each of the drive inflatable and deflating bags (412a, 412b) is not fixed to the backrest plate (11), but is not limited to this, and is fixed to the backrest plate (11). In order to do so, it may be connected to the backrest plate (11) to the extent that it does not interfere with the treatment of the user's treatment site, and each drive expansion / contraction to fix to the support member (411) Any surface of the bag (412a, 412b) may be adhered to the support member (411) with an adhesive or the like.

  Further, similarly to the description of the treatment inflatable bag (41), each drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b) is connected to a hollow hose (not shown) extending from the air supply / exhaust device. ing. In addition, although the present Example uses the expansion / contraction bag as an actuator, you may use what is comprised using a metal component and act | operates electrically. In that case, the S-shaped support member (411) is deformed by a small actuator and the angle of the upper surface of the support member (411) is changed, and the pressing direction and pressure of the treatment inflatable bag (41) are changed. The angle can be changed.

  In addition, each inflatable bag (41, 412a, 412b, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47) is made of a polymer material that has stretchability and is excellent in air tightness. It is more preferable that polyurethane, 6,6-nylon, 6-nylon, ABS, and silicone resin are used alone or in combination of two or more. In addition, each inflatable bag (41, 412a, 412b, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47) is constituted by a plurality of layers of two or more layers instead of a single layer in order to improve the air tightness. May be. Furthermore, the treatment inflatable bag (41) that contacts the user's shoulder or upper arm is a protrusion made of a polymer material or the like in order to more effectively press various points on the surface of the user's body. You may have a thing.

  Next, these use states will be described. In addition, as mentioned above, even when the mat type massage machine is used instead of the chair type massage machine, each inflatable bag is provided at a position corresponding to each body part of the user (A) sleeping on the mat. (41, 412a, 412b, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47) can be arranged and used in the same manner as described below.

  As shown in FIG. 5, by sending compressed air from the air supply / exhaust device to the treatment inflatable bag (41) via a hose, the treatment inflatable bag (41) is inflated, and the drive inflatable bag (41) By similarly expanding 412a), the user's (A) back and shoulders can be pressed so as to be sandwiched from the outside toward the inside. At this time, air is not sent to the expansion / contraction bag (412b) for driving and does not expand.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 6, the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) is inflated by sending compressed air from the air supply / exhaust device to the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) via a hose, thereby further expanding and contracting the treatment. By similarly inflating the bag (412b), the user's (A) back and shoulders can be pressed to spread from the inside toward the outside. At this time, air is not sent to the expansion / contraction bag (412a) for driving and does not expand.

  The pressing shown in FIG. 5 is a pressing treatment in which the back and shoulders of the user (A) are contracted from the outside to the inside by continuously expanding and contracting the drive inflating and deflating bag (412a) by the control device. The treatment can be repeatedly released.

  6 also expands the back and shoulders of the user (A) from the inside to the outside by continuously expanding and contracting the driving expansion / contraction bag (412b) by the control device. The pressing treatment and the release of the treatment can be repeated.

  5 and FIG. 6 are alternately pressed by the control device, that is, from the state shown in FIG. 5, the control device pulls out the air from the drive inflatable bag (412a) and contracts it, and further the drive inflatable bag. By supplying air to (412b) and inflating and alternately performing the pressing shown in FIG. 6, it is possible to perform a treatment to squeeze the back and shoulders of the user (A) from both the outside and inside.

  Furthermore, air is simultaneously sent from the state shown in FIG. 2 to each of the drive inflation / deflation bags (412a, 412b) by the control device, and the shoulder and upper arm of the user (A) are strongly moved forward of the user (A). The pressing treatment can be performed.

  In this way, if the expansion and contraction of each drive expansion / contraction bag (412a, 412b) is controlled without supplying / exhausting air to / from the treatment expansion / contraction bag (41) each time, On the other hand, treatment can be performed from an appropriate angle, and further variations of treatment methods can be increased to perform more complicated treatment.

  The order of expansion and contraction of the treatment inflatable bag (41) and the respective drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b) can be appropriately changed according to the desired treatment operation. In addition, by individually adjusting the expansion amount of each drive expansion / contraction bag (412a, 412b) according to the user's physique (for example, shoulder width), the pressing angle of the treatment expansion / contraction bag (41) can be adjusted. You may make it changeable suitably. In this case, by controlling the air distribution mechanism provided in the air supply / exhaust device, the amount of air supplied to each of the drive expansion / contraction bags (412a, 412b) The amount of air supply) can be adjusted easily. Further, since the center axis in the vertical direction of the drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b) is shifted, the amount of expansion of the drive inflatable bag (412a, 412b) is adjusted in advance, so that the treatment inflatable bag (412a, 412b) is adjusted. Adjustment can be made so that the pressing angle of the compressed bag (41) is an angle that matches the body shape of the user (A).

(Second embodiment)

The inflatable bag (41) for treatment is inflated by sending compressed air through a hose, and the inflatable bag (412a) for driving is similarly inflated, so that the back and shoulders of the user (A) Can be pressed to shrink from the outside toward the inside. At this time, air is not sent to the expansion / contraction bag (412b) for driving and does not expand.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 9, the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) is inflated by sending compressed air from the air supply / exhaust device to the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) via the hose, thereby further expanding and contracting the drive. By similarly inflating the bag (412b), the user's (A) back and shoulders can be pressed to spread from the inside toward the outside. At this time, air is not sent to the expansion / contraction bag (412a) for driving and does not expand.

  In this way, as in the first embodiment, if the expansion and contraction of each drive expansion / contraction bag (412a, 412b) is controlled without supplying / exhausting the treatment expansion / contraction bag (41) each time, It is possible to quickly perform treatment on the user's treatment site, further increase the variation of treatment methods, and perform more complex treatment. The same applies to the support member (411) that is made of a material harder than the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41) and the drive inflation / deflation bag (412a, 412b).

Furthermore, if only the inflatable bag (412a) for driving is inflated by the control device, the back and shoulders of the user (A) can be pressed down from diagonally upward to diagonally downward. If only the inflating and deflating bag (412d) is inflated by the control device, the user's (A) back and shoulders can be pressed to push up diagonally from the lower side to the upper side. Thus, by providing four drive inflation / deflation bags (412a, 412b, 412c, 412d) near the four corners of the treatment inflation / deflation bag (41), the treatment method is more than that of the first and second embodiments. The variation of can be increased, and more complex treatment can be performed more quickly.

  Further, as another modification, the drive inflating and deflating bags (412a, 412b, 412c, 412d) are respectively arranged on the arc so that the angle of the flat support member (411) is changed so as to be eccentrically rotated. Therefore, the variation of the treatment method by the treatment inflatable bag (41) can be increased.
