[Effect of the invention]

 In the present invention, a water bed type massage machine is provided with a guide member 4 for changing the traveling direction of the jet water jetted from the nozzle 3 in the short direction of the storage tank 2. In this configuration, since the direction of the jet water can be changed by the guide member 4 while the nozzle 3 is fixed, not only massage in the shoulder width direction is possible, but also the interval between the nozzles 3 (= nozzle unit 7 The width of the storage tank 2 can be reduced, and thus the width of the storage tank 2 in the width direction can be reduced.

Since the storage tank 2 according to the present invention has a vertical cross section in which the bottom width is narrower than the width of the upper opening 5, the amount of water is further reduced, which is convenient.

In addition, the storage tank 2 according to the present invention has a horizontal cross section in which the lower limb placing part 27 is narrower than the upper body placing part 26, so that the water volume is further reduced, which is convenient. It is.

Since the guide member 4 according to the present invention comprises the pipe 24, the direction of the jet water can be changed by reducing the diffusion of the jet water. The jet water whose jet direction is changed by the pipe 24 is discharged from the nozzle 3, and once hits the pipe 24 before colliding with the waterproof flexible membrane 6, so that soft and comfortable stimulation can be given to the human body, which is convenient. is there .

Since the pipe 24 is located between the nozzle 3 and the waterproof flexible film 6, the jet water can be made waterproof only by rotating the pipe 24 without stopping and starting the pump 10. The flexible film 6 can be reached or stopped. That is, when the pipe 24 is tilted and rotated moderately, the jet water is projected on the waterproof flexible film 6, and when the pipe 24 is tilted and rotated greatly, the jet water is deflected to the side wall direction of the storage tank 2. It does not reach the waterproof flexible film 6. The jet water pressure stimulation to the human body can be easily performed and stopped, and the stimulation can be prevented from getting used to, which is convenient.

Further, since a flexible hose or a watertight structure is not connected to the pipe 24, a configuration for rotating the pipe 24 can be simply made, and the degree of freedom of design is high, which is convenient.
