Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a massage machine, and more particularly to a massage machine having a treatment unit capable of performing a plurality of different treatment operations on a human body.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-49496 discloses a massage machine that is incorporated in a backrest of a chair and can perform a plurality of treatment operations such as a massage massage, a hit massage, and a back stretching operation on a human body. ing.
In such a massage machine, usually, a plurality of different treatment operations can be selected according to the user's preference.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, from the mechanical point of view of the massage machine, since the load on the mechanism is different depending on the various treatment operations, when only a certain treatment operation is selectively executed, compared to a case where a plurality of treatment operations are alternately executed. The mechanical life is shortened.
On the other hand, the repairing side can easily identify the cause of the failure and the failure location by knowing what kind of operation has been performed and how much.
[0004]
The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and its purpose is to be able to clearly indicate which medical treatment operation has been performed and for how long, thereby predicting the mechanical life and the cause of failure, and the like. There is a massage machine that can do it.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Thus the present invention provides a massage machine load on the mechanism by the various treatment operations with different treatment means it is possible to perform a plurality of different treatment operations to the human body, integration of each treatment operations It is characterized by including a count circuit for counting the operation time, and a display unit for displaying a list of integrated operation times for each treatment operation integrated by the count circuit. The integrated operation time for each treatment operation can be displayed on the display unit.
[0006]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
To explain an example of an embodiment of the present invention, as a massage machine capable of performing various treatment operations, the configuration thereof is not limited, but the massage machine shown in the above-mentioned conventional example can be suitably used. FIG. 1 shows a block circuit diagram on the premise of this case. A main body control circuit 1 for controlling the operation of the massage mechanism and a control on an operation device 2 for giving an operation instruction to the main body control circuit 1 are shown. The main body control circuit 1 includes a circuit 20 for instructing an on / off operation of a motor and a clutch for switching various operations. The main control circuit 1 has a built-in count circuit 10 for counting the operation time of each medical treatment operation. A storage means 11 composed of an EEPROM in which an integrated operation time for each operation is written each time the operation is completed is connected.
[0007]
As shown in FIG. 2, the operation device 2 having the control circuit 20 includes keys 22 for selecting various treatment operations and instructing position adjustment, and includes a display unit 21 formed of a liquid crystal display. The display unit 21 is capable of displaying the accumulated operation time of each of various treatment operations (fir operation, hitting operation, and back stretching operation in the illustrated example) in a bar graph shape. It should be noted that the integrated operation time display on the display unit 21 need not always be performed, and may be displayed only when a specific instruction is given.
[0008]
In this massage machine, when a certain treatment operation is instructed, the control circuit 10 is instructed by operating a motor or switching on / off a switching clutch based on a treatment operation instruction signal sent from the control circuit 20. And the accumulated operation time of the designated treatment operation is read from the storage means 11, and the operation time of the designated treatment operation is added, and the designated treatment operation is completed. Then, the integrated operation time is written in the storage unit 11. Therefore, even when the power is turned off during the operation, the error can be kept to a minimum.
[0009]
【The invention's effect】
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY As described above, according to the present invention , in a massage machine including a treatment unit capable of performing a plurality of different treatment operations on a human body and having different loads on a mechanism due to various treatment operations, A counting circuit for counting the operation time; and a display unit for displaying a list of the accumulated operation time for each treatment operation accumulated by the count circuit, and displaying the accumulated operation time for each treatment operation on the display unit. It is possible to predict or give notice of the time of failure, and to obtain an indication of early maintenance. Even if a failure should occur, it is easy to estimate the cause and location of the failure from the accumulated operation time for each treatment operation, and repair is also easy. .
[Brief description of the drawings]
FIG. 1 is a block circuit diagram according to an example of an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a front view of the same operating device.
[Explanation of symbols]
