JP 2004-208880 A

本発明は上記の従来の問題点に鑑みて発明したものであって、脚部に対してマッサージを行うことができる上に、脚部をくつろがせることもできるオットマンを提供することを課題とするものである。   This invention is invented in view of said conventional problem, Comprising: Let it be a subject to provide the ottoman which can also massage a leg and can also make a leg relax. Is.

上記課題を解決するために本発明に係るオットマンは、底板と、該底板から立ち上がる左右一対の側板と、両側板間に位置する中央壁とを有して、各側板と中央壁との間に夫々人体の脚部を納めるための溝を備え、該溝を囲む面に上記脚部に対するマッサージ用の部材を配しているオットマンにおいて、ほぼ平行に並ぶ上記両溝の開口部を覆って閉じるとともに両側板間にほぼ平坦な面を形成する開閉板を備え、上記溝の開放時に上記側板に添う位置にある上記開閉板は、上記側板の中央壁側の面に添うものであるとともに表面に上記マッサージ用の部材を備えたものであることに特徴を有している。 In order to solve the above problems, an ottoman according to the present invention has a bottom plate, a pair of left and right side plates rising from the bottom plate, and a central wall located between both side plates, and between each side plate and the central wall. In an ottoman provided with a groove for accommodating a leg part of each human body, and a member for massaging the leg part on the surface surrounding the groove, the openings of both the grooves arranged in parallel are covered and closed. comprising a closing plate to form a substantially planar surface between the two side plates, the closing plate in a position accompany to the side plate upon opening of the groove is above the surface along with those that live up to the surface of the central wall side of the side plate It is characterized by having a massage member .

脚部に対するマッサージに際して脚部を納める溝を開閉板で閉じることができるようにしたものであり、この時には溝の開口部が覆われてほぼ平坦な面が形成されるために、足をくつろがせることができる。   The groove that fits the leg part can be closed with an opening / closing plate when massaging the leg part. At this time, the opening part of the groove is covered to form a substantially flat surface, so that the leg can be relaxed. be able to.

しかも、上記開閉板は上記溝の開放時に上記側板に添う位置にあるために、開閉板の収納を簡便に行うことができ、更には上記開閉板が上記側板の中央壁側の面に添うものであるとともに表面に上記マッサージ用の部材を備えていることから、マッサージ用の部材の配置と開閉板の収納を合理的に行うことができる。 In addition, since the opening / closing plate is positioned so as to follow the side plate when the groove is opened , the opening / closing plate can be easily stored . Further, the opening / closing plate follows the surface of the side plate on the central wall side. In addition, since the massage member is provided on the surface, it is possible to rationally arrange the massage member and store the opening / closing plate.

本発明は、マッサージ用の部材が配されているとともにマッサージに際して脚部を納める溝を開閉板で閉じてほぼ平坦な面を形成することができるものであり、このために溝を開いてマッサージ用の部材を用いたマッサージを行うことができるのに加えて、ほぼ平坦な面の上に脚部を置いて脚部をくつろがせることもできるものであり、しかもこの時には溝が開閉板で閉じられてシンプルな外観形状となるために、足を引っかけてしまう虞が小さくなると同時に、室内に設置するものとして体裁もよいものである。   According to the present invention, a massage member is arranged, and a groove for storing a leg part can be closed with an opening and closing plate to form a substantially flat surface for massage. In addition to being able to perform massage using the members, it is also possible to place the legs on a substantially flat surface and relax the legs, and at this time the groove is closed with an opening / closing plate In addition, since the appearance is simple, the possibility of getting caught is reduced, and at the same time, the appearance is good for installation indoors.

以下、本発明を添付図面に示す実施形態に基づいて説明すると、図示例のオットマンは、底板２の左右両端から一対の側板３，３を立ち上げるとともに左右方向中央から中央壁４を立ち上げて、各側板３，３と中央壁４との間にほぼ平行に並ぶ溝５，５を夫々設けたもので、ここにおける側板３，３は、固定ガイド部３０とこの固定ガイド部３０の三方外面を囲む断面コ字形のスライド部３１とからなるものであるとともに、中央壁４側に開閉板３２が取り付けられたものとなっている。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. An ottoman in the illustrated example raises a pair of side plates 3 and 3 from the left and right ends of the bottom plate 2 and raises a central wall 4 from the center in the left and right direction. The side plates 3, 3 are provided with grooves 5, 5 arranged substantially in parallel between the side plates 3, 3 and the central wall 4. The side plates 3, 3 here are fixed guide portions 30 and the three-side outer surfaces of the fixed guide portions 30. And an opening / closing plate 32 is attached to the central wall 4 side.

固定ガイド部３０は上記底板２に固定されたものであるのに対し、スライド部３１は固定ガイド部３０に対してスライド自在となっているもので、底板２もしくは固定ガイド部３０に一端を連結しているレイジートング６の他端がスライド部３１に連結されており、該レイジートング６を伸縮させれば、スライド部３１は固定ガイド部３０に対してスライドし、この結果、側板３は伸縮して底板２からの側板３の高さが変化する。   The fixed guide portion 30 is fixed to the bottom plate 2, while the slide portion 31 is slidable with respect to the fixed guide portion 30, and one end is connected to the bottom plate 2 or the fixed guide portion 30. The other end of the lazy tong 6 is connected to the slide portion 31. When the lazy tong 6 is expanded and contracted, the slide portion 31 slides with respect to the fixed guide portion 30, and as a result, the side plate 3 expands and contracts. Thus, the height of the side plate 3 from the bottom plate 2 changes.

なお、側板３の底板２からの高さは、側板３を縮めた時に中央壁４の底板２からの高さとほぼ同じとなり、側板３を伸ばした時には中央壁４の上記高さよりも高くなる。   The height of the side plate 3 from the bottom plate 2 is substantially the same as the height of the central wall 4 from the bottom plate 2 when the side plate 3 is contracted, and becomes higher than the height of the central wall 4 when the side plate 3 is extended.

レイジートング６の伸縮は、モータ（図示せず）によって回転駆動されるねじ軸６５の正ねじ部と逆ねじ部とに夫々螺合するナット（図示せず）をレイジートング６の対となる軸部６０，６０に設けて、ねじ軸６５を回転させて軸部６０，６０間の間隔を変更することにより行うものとなっている。   The expansion and contraction of the lazy tongs 6 is a pair of shafts that are paired with the lazy tongs 6 by nuts (not shown) that are respectively screwed into the forward screw portion and the reverse screw portion of the screw shaft 65 that is rotated by a motor (not shown). Provided in the parts 60, 60, the screw shaft 65 is rotated to change the interval between the shaft parts 60, 60.

そして開閉板３２は側板３におけるスライド部３１の端部に軸３３で連結されることでスライド部３１に対して回動自在となっているものであるとともに、一端が開閉板３２に軸３４によって連結されているリンク３５の他端が固定ガイド部３０に回動自在に連結されており、該リンク３５の存在により、側板３が伸びて底板２からの高さが高くなる時、図３に示すように、開閉板３２は側板３の中央壁４側の面に添う状態となり、側板３を縮めた時には開閉板３はリンク３５によって押し広げられ、図２に示すように溝５の開口部を覆う。   The open / close plate 32 is connected to the end portion of the slide portion 31 in the side plate 3 by a shaft 33 so as to be rotatable with respect to the slide portion 31, and one end is connected to the open / close plate 32 by the shaft 34. When the other end of the connected link 35 is rotatably connected to the fixed guide portion 30 and the side plate 3 extends due to the presence of the link 35 and the height from the bottom plate 2 becomes higher, FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the opening / closing plate 32 follows the surface of the side plate 3 on the central wall 4 side, and when the side plate 3 is contracted, the opening / closing plate 3 is expanded by the link 35, and as shown in FIG. Cover.

側板３の伸縮に伴って開閉板３２が回動し、側板３を高くした時には溝５が現れ、側板３を低くした時には溝５が開閉板３２で閉じられて両側板３，３間にほぼ平坦な面が形成されるものである。 And closing plate 32 is pivotally rotated expansion and contraction of the side plate 3, appear grooves 5 when a high side plate 3, the groove 5 when the lower side plate 3 substantially between closed and both side plates 3,3 at opening and closing plate 32 A flat surface is formed.

ここにおいて、開閉板３２の表面と、中央壁４の左右の側面とにはマッサージ用のエアバッグ７が夫々配設されている。図示していないエアポンプと給排気弁とによるエアの供給と排気とによって膨張収縮する上記エアバッグ７はマッサージ用のものであり、側板３を伸ばすことで溝５の開口部を開いた状態で人体の脚部を溝５内に納め、この状態でエアバッグ７を膨張収縮させれば、エアバッグ７は脚部における溝５内に位置する部分を圧迫したり開放したりしてマッサージを行う。   Here, massage airbags 7 are respectively disposed on the surface of the opening / closing plate 32 and the left and right side surfaces of the central wall 4. The airbag 7 that is inflated and contracted by air supply and exhaust by an air pump and an air supply / exhaust valve (not shown) is for massage, and the human body in a state in which the opening of the groove 5 is opened by extending the side plate 3. If the airbag 7 is placed in the groove 5 and the airbag 7 is inflated and contracted in this state, the airbag 7 massages by compressing or releasing the portion located in the groove 5 in the leg.

側板３を縮めた時には上述のように溝５が開閉板３２によって閉じられて開閉板７のエアバッグ７が配されている面がオットマンの表面にほぼ平坦な面を形成するものであり、このために人体の脚部は溝５によって規制されることなく無関係にオットマンの表面に置くことができる。この時、側板３は縮んで底板２からの高さも低くなっているために、マッサージをしない時のオットマンの高さを抑えることができる。   When the side plate 3 is contracted, the groove 5 is closed by the opening / closing plate 32 as described above, and the surface on which the airbag 7 of the opening / closing plate 7 is disposed forms a substantially flat surface on the surface of the ottoman. Therefore, the leg of the human body can be placed on the surface of the ottoman without being restricted by the groove 5. At this time, since the side plate 3 is contracted and the height from the bottom plate 2 is also low, the height of the ottoman when no massage is performed can be suppressed.

図４は上記オットマン１を椅子８の座部８０の前部側に上下に回動自在に配設して、図に示している座部８０の前端から下方に垂れ下がる状態と、座部８０の前方にほぼ水平に位置する状態（図示せず）とを切り換えることができるようにしたものを示している。   FIG. 4 shows a state in which the ottoman 1 is disposed on the front side of the seat 80 of the chair 8 so as to be pivotable up and down, and hangs downward from the front end of the seat 80 shown in the figure. It shows what can be switched between a state (not shown) positioned substantially horizontally in front.

図４(a)に示すように、側板３を縮めて高さを低くしておけば、側板３が邪魔になることなく椅子８に座ったり椅子８から立ち上がることができ、この状態からオットマンを座部８０の前方にほぼ水平状態になるまで回動させれば、椅子８に座る使用者はオットマンのほぼ平坦な面の上に足を置くことができ、溝５によって足の位置が規制されることがないくつろいだ状態を得ることができる。   As shown in FIG. 4 (a), if the side plate 3 is shrunk and the height is lowered, the side plate 3 can sit on the chair 8 or stand up from the chair 8 without getting in the way. If the seat 80 is rotated until it is almost horizontal, the user sitting on the chair 8 can place his / her foot on the substantially flat surface of the ottoman, and the position of the foot is regulated by the groove 5. You can get a lot of state.

また、側板３を伸ばせば、図４(b)に示すようにそれまで開閉板３２で覆われていた溝５が出現し、該溝５に脚部を入れて溝５の内壁に位置するエアバッグ７を膨張収縮させることで脚部に対するマッサージを得ることができる。   Further, when the side plate 3 is extended, the groove 5 that has been covered by the opening / closing plate 32 until then appears as shown in FIG. 4 (b), and a leg portion is inserted into the groove 5 and the air located on the inner wall of the groove 5. The bag 7 can be inflated and contracted to obtain a massage for the legs.

なお、図４においては、開閉板３２とその表面に配されたエアバッグ７、中央壁７とその両側面のエアバッグ７，７、側板３、底板２を夫々布製のカバー１５で覆っている。   In FIG. 4, the opening / closing plate 32 and the airbag 7 disposed on the surface thereof, the central wall 7 and the airbags 7 and 7 on the both side surfaces, the side plate 3 and the bottom plate 2 are covered with a cloth cover 15. .

マッサージ用の部材として膨張収縮するエアバッグ７を備えたものを示したが、このエアバッグ７に限るものではなく、溝５に納めた人体の脚部に対してマッサージを行うことができるものであればよい。   Although the thing provided with the airbag 7 which expands and contracts as a member for massage was shown, it is not restricted to this airbag 7, It can massage with respect to the leg part of the human body stored in the groove | channel 5. I just need it.

また、ここでは側板３を伸縮自在なものとするとともに側板３の伸縮に伴って開閉板３が溝５を開く位置と溝５を閉じる位置とを切り換えるものを示したが、側板３の伸縮に開閉板３２が連動しないものであってもよく、更には側板３が伸縮しないものであってもよい。   Further, here, the side plate 3 is made to be extendable and the opening and closing plate 3 switches between the position at which the groove 5 is opened and the position at which the groove 5 is closed as the side plate 3 is extended. The opening and closing plate 32 may not be interlocked, and the side plate 3 may not be expanded and contracted.
