Description

  The present invention relates to an acupressure generating device applied to an acupressure massager.

  Conventionally, a handy massager that generates vibrations or strikes a shoulder or neck by a reciprocating motion of a mass driven by a rotary motor has been mainly used, and a handy shiatsu massager is not seen. In addition, the chair-type massage device has a function of squeezing, but does not have a shiatsu function for holding the pressed state for a certain period of time.

  The handy massager of the type that generates vibrations acts on the surface of the part to which massage is applied, but the fatigue recovery effect in the deep part of the muscle is insufficient.

  It is said that in a handy massager of the hitting method, repeated strong hitting damages the blood vessel at the location to which the massage is applied.

  Therefore, there is a demand for a handy shiatsu massager that acts on a deep part of the muscle and that does not damage the blood vessel by pressing the part to be massaged gradually.

  However, the conventional massage device that strikes the shoulder and neck by the reciprocating motion of the mass driven by the rotary motor continuously reciprocates, so it achieves the acupressure operation that keeps pressing the place to apply the massage for a certain period of time. Difficult to do.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and provides an acupressure generating device that realizes an acupressure operation that keeps pressing with a sufficient finger pressure and a certain period of time while having low power consumption, light weight and compactness. Objective.

  According to claim 1 of the present invention, an iron core, a coil wound around the iron core and energized by energization, and a pair of movable permanent magnets are arranged on the front end side and rear end side of the iron core so that the same magnetic poles face each other. And a pair of the movable permanent magnets are arranged so as to be parallel to the iron core, and a guide cylinder is provided for guiding the coupling rods so as to be slidable. An acupressure member having a smooth curved surface is fixed to any one of the permanent magnets.

  According to claim 2 of the present invention, a cylindrical hollow iron core, a coil wound around the hollow iron core and excited by energization, a movable shaft made of a nonmagnetic material guided by an inner diameter surface of the hollow core, A pair of movable permanent magnets are fixed to the front end side and the rear end side of the movable shaft so that the same magnetic poles face each other, and an acupressure member having a smooth curved surface is fixed to one of the pair of movable permanent magnets It is characterized by that.

  The acupressure generating device shown in the first and second aspects uses the electromagnetic drive device proposed in Japanese Patent Application Nos. 2005-143527, 2001-39639, and Japanese Patent Application No. 9-56260.

  However, there is no example in which the electromagnetic driving device is applied to an acupressure generating device for the purpose of massage, and it has been necessary to have a light and compact configuration in order to apply the device to a handy acupressure massage device. In the present invention, the electromagnetic drive device is realized as a lightweight and compact configuration.

  In the acupressure generator of the present invention, the pair of movable permanent magnets are arranged so that either the S pole or the N pole faces each other, so that the front end side and the rear end of the iron core excited by the coil are arranged. One of the movable permanent magnets is attracted to the iron core and the other receives a force repelling from the iron core.

  Since the pair of movable permanent magnets are mechanically connected, the combined force of the attractive force and repulsive force between the movable permanent magnet and the iron core on the front end side and the rear end side of the iron core becomes the driving force, which is compact but sufficient It is possible to configure a device that generates a finger pressure.

  In addition, finger pressure stimulates the natural healing power of deep parts of the muscle by pressing and holding for a certain period of time, but the acupressure generator of the present invention can move with the iron core even when the coil is turned off. One of the permanent magnets retains the attracted state.

  Therefore, the power consumption is small, and the necessary current can be supplied to the acupressure generating device with a small power source, so that the device cost can be reduced.

Embodiments according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.
Hereinafter, two embodiments based on the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3.

In FIG. 1A, the side of the iron core 2 facing the movable permanent magnet 24 is excited so as to be the south pole, and the side facing the movable permanent magnet 27 is excited so as to be the north pole. Yes.

  Therefore, the side of the iron core 2 facing the movable permanent magnet 24 repels the south pole of the movable permanent magnet 24, and the side facing the movable permanent magnet 27 attracts the south pole of the movable permanent magnet 27. As a result, the movable members 14 and 19 connected by the connecting rods 12 and 13 move in the direction indicated by the arrow 33, and the acupressure member 30 is retracted.

  In FIG. 1B, the direction of the current supplied to the current supply lines 6 and 7 is reversed by the operation of the current supply control device 8. As a result, the side of the iron core 2 facing the movable permanent magnet 24 is excited so as to be an N pole, and the side facing the movable permanent magnet 27 is excited so as to be an S pole.

  Therefore, the side of the iron core 2 facing the movable permanent magnet 24 attracts the south pole of the movable permanent magnet 24, and the side facing the movable permanent magnet 27 repels the south pole of the movable permanent magnet 27. As a result, the movable members 14 and 19 connected by the connecting rods 12 and 13 move in the direction indicated by the arrow 34, and the acupressure member 30 moves forward to generate acupressure.

  The compression coil spring 32 generates a force that resists when the movable member 14 moves in the direction of the arrow 34. As a result, the acupressure member 30 is prevented from giving a shocking force to the part to be massaged, and an effect of gradually pressing with a slowly changing force is realized.

  The current supply control device 8 only needs to supply current when changing the state shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, and is a compact current supply device with low power consumption.

  Moreover, since the repulsive force and the attractive force of the iron core 2 and the pair of movable permanent magnets are used, the iron core 2 and the coil 3 can be reduced in size. That is, a light and compact acupressure generator is realized.
