Description

  The present invention relates to a swing mat for reciprocating a lying user.

It is known that a person lying on a bed can obtain a massage effect, a rehabilitation effect, or an effect of inducing sleep by reciprocating the bed.
For example, Patent Document 1 describes a “bed device” in which a leg wheel that supports a mat support is placed on a rail, and the mat support is reciprocated along the rail by a reciprocating drive unit.
Further, although the user is not reciprocated in the height direction or the left-right direction, in Patent Document 2, the mattress is placed on a base that is attached to the frame so as to move to the left and right via the central shaft. A "body support" is described in which one side surface of the base is moved up and down by a jack.

Registered Utility Model No. 3132853 JP 2001-120606 A

However, the “bed device” described in Patent Document 1 reciprocates a mat support on which a mat on which a user lies is placed, but the mat support is provided with legs with wheels. Therefore, it is a large-scale device. Therefore, it is difficult to easily bring the swinging portion of this bed apparatus to another bed.
Further, even the “body support tool” described in Patent Document 2 cannot be easily installed on another bed because the swinging portion for inclining the mattress is incorporated in the bed.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a swing mat that can be downsized and can be easily moved and installed.

  The rocking mat of the present invention includes a mat body for a user to lie down, a rocking part that reciprocates the mat body, and a mat cover that includes the mat body and the rocking part. The section includes a body support member that supports the mat body, a swing support member that supports reciprocation of the body support member, and a drive unit that reciprocates the body support member.

  According to the swing mat of the present invention, the mat main body and the swing portion are covered by the mat cover, so that the user can easily install the swing mat of the present invention on the bed or If so, it can be installed on a tatami mat, or if it is a Western-style room, it can be installed between flooring boards. In addition, since the drive unit only needs to be able to drive the mat body and the body support unit, a small drive unit can be adopted. Therefore, the swing mat of the present invention makes the swing unit more compact than swinging the entire bed. be able to.

The swing support member preferably includes a first smooth member fixed to a bottom surface of the main body support member and a second smooth member on which the first smooth member slides.
By reciprocating the main body support member by the drive unit, the mat member main body can be reciprocated because the second smooth member slides with the first smooth member fixed to the bottom surface of the main body support member.

  The swinging support member preferably includes a column member that supports the main body support member in a reciprocating manner. The column member can be reciprocated while supporting the main body support member by tilting to one side or tilting to the other side as the main body support member reciprocates.

  When the drive unit is arranged side by side with the mat body, the swing mat of the present invention can be formed thinner than when the drive unit is arranged below the body support member.

  The swing support member includes an installation member disposed on the installation surface side so as to face the main body support member, and the driving unit is configured to respond to a motor installed on the main body support member and driving of the motor. The crank member is preferably connected to the crank member at one end, the other end is connected to the installation member, and the shaft portion converts the rotational motion of the crank member into a reciprocating motion. By setting it as such a structure, even if the motor is installed in the main body support member, a main body support member can be reciprocated by a shaft part with rotation of a crank member.

  When the drive unit is disposed below the main body support member, the drive unit is hidden by the mat body when the swing mat of the present invention is viewed in plan view. Does not grow.

  The swing support member includes an installation member disposed on the installation surface side so as to face the main body support member, and the driving unit is configured to respond to a motor installed on the main body support member and driving of the motor. The crank member is preferably connected to the crank member at one end, the other end is connected to the installation member, and the shaft portion converts the rotational motion of the crank member into a reciprocating motion. By setting it as such a structure, even if the motor is installed in the member for installation, a main-body support member can be reciprocated by a shaft part with rotation of a crank member.

  Since the swinging mat of the present invention can downsize the swinging part rather than swinging the entire bed, the swinging mechanism can be downsized and can be easily moved and installed.

A swing mat according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The swing mat according to the present embodiment is used by a user who seeks comfortable sleep induction, a user who needs care due to cerebral palsy, etc. for rehabilitation or training, or lack of exercise. Older users use it for stretching exercises.
The swing mat according to the present embodiment is used by being installed on a bed, or placed on a tatami mat in a Japanese-style room and placed between flooring boards in a Western-style room.

(Embodiment 1)
The swing mat according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
The swing mat 11 shown in FIG. 1 includes a mat body 12 for the user M to lie down, a swing portion 13, and a mat cover 14 that encloses the mat body 12 and the swing portion 13.

  The mat body 12 is formed in a rectangular shape having a size corresponding to the height direction and the left-right direction of the user M lying on the mat body 12. The mat body 12 has cushioning properties so that the user M can sleep and train with peace of mind.

The oscillating portion 13 reciprocates the mat body 12 along the height direction of the user M. Hereinafter, this reciprocating direction is referred to as a reciprocating movement direction F1.
The swing part 13 includes a main body support member 131 that supports the mat body 12, a swing support member 132 that supports the reciprocation of the main body support member, and a drive part 133 that reciprocates the main body support member.

  The main body support member 131 is formed in a rectangular shape in accordance with the shape of the mat main body 12. The body support member 131 can be a plate-like member or a frame-like member as long as it can support the bottom surface of the mat body 12. Since the main body support member 131 reciprocates together with the mat body 12, in order to reduce the weight, it is desirable that the main body support member 131 includes a frame member that surrounds the periphery of the mat body 12 and a bone member that is formed in a lattice shape vertically and horizontally. .

The swing support member 132 is disposed on the installation surface S side so as to face the main body support member 131, and includes an installation member 1321 that forms the bottom surface of the swing mat 11 and a slide member 1322.
The installation member 1321 is formed in a rectangular shape in accordance with the shape of the main body support member 131. The installation member 1321 can be a plate-like member or a frame-like member.
The sliding member 1322 includes a smooth member 1322a that has been surface-treated so as to be slippery, and is disposed on the main body support member 131 as a first smooth member, and a smooth member 1322b that contacts the smooth member 1322a in a state of facing the second member It is arranged on the installation member 1321 as a smooth member.

The smooth members 1322a and 1322b according to the first embodiment include two members from the chest part of the user M to the end part of the mat body 12 on the head side and from the shin part to the end part of the mat body 12 on the toe side. It is provided in the place.
The smooth members 1322a and 1322b can be a fluororesin-processed tape or plate material, or a polyslider (registered trademark). Since the smooth members 1322a and 1322b have a smaller friction when the contact area is narrower, it is desirable to arrange a plurality of tape-shaped members along the reciprocating direction F1. In addition, the smooth members 1322a and 1322b can be similarly configured by a smooth member such as a slide rail.

  The drive unit 133 has a motor 1331 installed on the main body support member 131, a circular member 1332 that rotates according to the drive of the motor 1331, one end connected to the circular member 1332, and the other end connected to the installation member 1321. And a shaft portion 1333 for converting the rotational motion of the circular member 1332 into a reciprocating motion.

  The motor 1331 is arranged alongside the mat body 12 at the end of the user M on the leg side. The motor 1331 is disposed along the left-right direction whose rotation axis is orthogonal to the height direction of the user M. In the circular member 1332, the center of the circular member 1332 is attached to the rotation shaft of the motor 1331 and functions as a crank member.

  The shaft portion 1333 is rotatably connected to a position where one end 1333a is eccentric from the center of the circular member 1332 by a pin member (not shown). The shaft portion 1333 extends from one end 1333 a through the notched end portion of the mat body 12, penetrates the body support member 131 and extends to the installation member 1321. The other end 1333b of the shaft 1333 is rotatably connected to the installation member 1321 via a mounting member by a pin member (not shown).

  The mat cover 14 is formed so as to surround the entire mat body 12 and the swinging portion 13. The mat cover 14 is made of cloth, but may be synthetic fiber, non-woven fabric, net, flexible resin, or the like.

The operation and use state of the swing mat 11 according to the first embodiment of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to the drawings.
When the user M turns on the power of the swing mat 11 through an operation panel (not shown) and energizes the motor 1331, the motor 1331 starts to be driven. The circular member 1332 is rotated by driving the motor 1331, and the one end 1333 a of the shaft portion 1333 is rotationally moved along with the rotation.

One end 1333 a of the shaft portion 1333 rotates, and the position of the other end 1333 b of the shaft portion 1333 is fixed to the installation member 1321. Therefore, since the rotational motion of the motor 1331 is converted into a reciprocating motion via the shaft portion 1333, the motor 1331 and the circular member 1332 change from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. Move along.
Since the smooth member 1322b provided on the upper surface of the installation member 1321 slides on the smooth member 1322a provided on the bottom surface of the main body support member 131, the mat main body 12 reciprocates in a sliding manner.
Thereby, the user M who lies on the mat body 12 and reciprocates in the height direction can obtain a comfortable sleep, and can perform rehabilitation, training, and stretching exercise.

  As described above, according to the swing mat 11 according to the first embodiment, the mat body 12 and the swing portion 13 are covered by the mat cover 14 so that the swing mat 11 is formed. The user can easily install the swing mat 11 on the bed, install it on the tatami mat if it is a Japanese-style room, or install it on the flooring board if it is a Western-style room. If the mat cover 14 becomes dirty, it can be kept clean at any time by washing the mat cover 14 or replacing it with a replacement mat cover 14.

In addition, since the motor 1331 only needs to move the total weight of the motor 1331 itself, the mat body 12, the body support member 131, and the user M, the output of the motor 1331 can be reduced. Also good. Therefore, since a small motor 1331 can be adopted, the swinging mat 11 in which the mat body 12 and the swinging part 13 are enclosed by the mat cover 14 makes the swinging part 13 smaller than swinging the entire bed. be able to.
Further, since the swing mat 11 can be much lighter than the means for swinging the entire bed, the swing mat 11 can be easily moved to various places.

  By reciprocating the main body support member 131 by the drive unit 133, the mat member 12 can be reciprocated because the smooth member 1322 b slides with the smooth member 1322 a fixed to the bottom surface of the main body support member 131.

  Further, since the smooth member 1322a and the smooth member 1322b are formed in a plate shape or a tape shape and support the reciprocating movement of the main body support member 131, the main body support member 131 and the installation member 1321 are brought close to each other. Can be arranged. Therefore, the thickness of the swing mat 11 can be reduced.

  Since the motor 1331 of the oscillating portion 13 is not located between the installation member 1321 below the main body support member 131 but at the same height as the mat main body 12, the smooth members 1322a and 1322b Since a thin plate-like or strip-like member can be used, the entire thickness of the swing mat 11 can be reduced.

  Further, the drive unit 133 includes a motor 1331 installed on the main body support member 131, a circular member 1332 that rotates according to the drive of the motor 1331, and one end 1333 a connected to the circular member 1332, and the other end connected to the installation member 1321. 1333b is connected, and a shaft portion 1333 that converts the rotary motion of the circular member 1332 into a reciprocating motion is provided. Therefore, even if the motor 1331 is installed on the main body support member 131, the main body support member 131 itself can be reciprocated by the shaft portion 1333 as the circular member 1332 rotates.

  In addition, in the drive part 133 which concerns on this Embodiment 1, although the circular member 1332 was demonstrated to the example as a crank member, since the one end 1333a of the shaft part 1333 should just rotate, a motor 1331 may be used instead of the circular member 1332. It is good also as a member which can convert rotational motions, such as an elongate board | plate material and an eccentric cam, in which one end part was attached to the rotating shaft of this, and the other end part was attached to the one end 1333a of the shaft part 1333 to reciprocation.

In the second embodiment, the direction of the rotation axis of the circular member 1332 rotated by the rotation axis of the motor 1331 arranged along the height direction of the user M is converted into the left-right direction orthogonal to the height direction by a bevel gear or the like. doing.
The shaft portion 1333 is rotatably connected to a position where one end 1333a is eccentric from the center of the circular member 1332 by a pin member (not shown). The shaft portion 1333 extends from the one end 1333 a to the main body support member 131. The other end 1333b of the shaft portion 1333 is rotatably connected to the main body support member 131 via a mounting member by a pin member (not shown).

In order to secure the height of the motor 1331 disposed between the main body support member 131 and the installation member 1321, the swing unit 13 is connected to the main body support member 131 as a swing support member 134 so as to be reciprocally movable. And a column member 1323 to be supported.
The column member 1323 supports four corners of the main body support member 131 formed in a rectangular shape.

The operation and use state of the swing mat 21 according to the second embodiment of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to the drawings.
When the user M turns on the power of the swing mat 21 through an operation panel (not shown) and energizes the motor 1331, the motor 1331 starts to be driven. The circular member 1332 is rotated by driving the motor 1331, and the one end 1333 a of the shaft portion 1333 is rotationally moved along with the rotation.

One end 1333 a of the shaft portion 1333 rotates, and the other end 1333 b of the shaft portion 1333 is fixed to the main body support member 131. For this reason, the rotational motion of the motor 1331 is converted into the reciprocating motion of the shaft portion 1333, so that the main body support member 131 reciprocates.
As shown in FIG. 3, when the main body support member 131 moves in the head direction of the user M, the column member 1323 tilts toward the head direction, and when the main body support member 131 moves in the direction of the foot of the user M, The column member 1323 of the installation member 1321 is inclined toward the toe direction.
Accordingly, the main body support member 131 and the mat main body 12 supported by the main body support member 131 reciprocate along the height direction so as to transition from the state shown in FIG. 3 to the state shown in FIG. Therefore, the user M who lies on the mat body 12 and reciprocates in the height direction can obtain a comfortable sleep, and can perform rehabilitation, training, and stretching exercise.

  As described above, the swing mat 21 according to the second embodiment of the present invention only needs to have an output sufficient for the motor 1331 to move the total weight of the mat body 12 and the body support member 131. Further, the output of the motor 1331 may be small. Accordingly, since a small motor 1331 can be employed, the swing mat 21 in which the mat body 12 and the swing portion 13 are enclosed by the mat cover 14 makes the swing portion 13 more compact than swinging the entire bed. be able to. The swing mat 21 can be downsized and can be easily installed.

  Further, since the swing support member 134 includes a column member 1323 that supports the main body support member 131 in a reciprocating manner so that the main body support member 131 can be reciprocated, the column member 1323 moves along with the reciprocation of the main body support member 131. The main body support member 131 can be reciprocated while supporting the main body support member 131 by tilting to one side or tilting to the other side.

  Further, since the motor 1331 is disposed between the main body support member 131 and the installation member 1321, the drive unit 133 is hidden under the mat main body 12 when the swing mat 21 is viewed in plan, and thus the mat It is not larger than the size of the main body 12.

  Further, the drive unit 133 includes a motor 1331 installed on the installation member 1321, a circular member 1332 that rotates according to the drive of the motor 1331, and one end 1333 a connected to the circular member 1332, and the other end connected to the main body support member 131. 1333b is connected, and a shaft portion 1333 that converts the rotary motion of the circular member 1332 into a reciprocating motion is provided. Thereby, even if the motor 1331 is installed on the installation member 1321, the main body support member 131 can be reciprocated by the shaft portion 1333 as the circular member 1332 rotates.
