Regarding the explanation regarding the neck massager, when the neck massager is not attached to the neck, the vertical direction refers to the direction in which the neck part of the neck massager is attached to the neck by the holder member being held by the neck hanging member of the neck massager. When formed by a member and a holder member, this refers to the direction in which the neck is passed through the neck portion of the member.

The front-rear direction is a direction along the direction from the device main body of the neck-hanging member toward the holder member when the holder member is held by the neck-hanging member. In addition, the front-rear direction can also be referred to as the direction along the belt main body parts of the left and right belt parts of the neck hanging member when the belt main parts are stretched straight so as to be parallel to each other (see Fig. 3). ).
The left-right direction is a direction along the direction from one belt insertion portion of the holder member to the other belt insertion portion when the holder member is held on the neck hanging member. Further, the left-right direction is a direction along a direction perpendicular to the up-down direction and the front-back direction (see FIG. 3).

The neck massager 10 of this embodiment is used by being attached to the neck 2 of the user 1, as shown in FIGS. This is a neck hanging type device 10 that performs low frequency massage on the neck 2 by outputting a frequency current (pulse current).

The neck massager 10 of this embodiment includes a neck hanging member 20 that is hung around the neck 2 and a holder member 40 that is removably held by the neck hanging member 20. The neck hanging member 20 includes a massage part (apparatus main body part) 21 that generates a low-frequency current, and left and right belt parts 26 extending from left and right end parts of the massage part 21, respectively.

Further, in the neck massager 10 of the present embodiment, when the neck massager 10 is worn on the neck 2 of the user 1, the neck portion 11 surrounding the neck 2 is connected to the neck hanging member 20 and the neck hanging member. 20 and a holder member 40 held by the left and right belt parts 26. In the present invention, the neck portion 11 of the neck massager 10 is, for example, the inner peripheral portion of the neck hanging member 20 and the holder member 40 that are continuously formed so as to surround the space 12 through which the neck 2 is inserted, as shown in FIG. means.

In the neck massager 10 of this embodiment, the massage part 21 is disposed at a location that comes into contact with the nape of the neck (the back part of the neck 2) when the neck massager 10 is attached to the neck 2 of the user 1, and is, for example, When viewed from above (FIG. 6), the neck hanging member 20 is formed in a substantially arc shape.

The massage part 21 has an inner circumferential surface 21a facing the neck 2, an outer circumferential surface 21b disposed on the opposite side of the inner circumferential surface 21a, and an upper surface and a lower surface facing in the vertical direction. In this case, in a plan view of the neck hanging member 20, the inner circumferential surface 21a of the massage part 21 (excluding the electrode part 22 to be described later) has a concave shape in which the central part in the width direction is concave. The outer circumferential surface 21b of the portion 21 has a convex shape that swells at the center in the width direction.

On the inner peripheral surface 21a side of the massage part 21, two electrode parts 22 for supplying low frequency current to the neck 2 are provided so as to protrude from the inner peripheral surface 21a of the massage part 21. A switch section 23 for switching at least an operating state/non-operating state (ON/OFF) of the massage section 21 is provided on the outer circumferential surface 21b side of the massage section 21.

The massaging section 21 is configured such that the distance between the inner circumferential surface 21a and the outer circumferential surface 21b of the massaging section 21 (that is, the thickness of the massaging section 21) is thicker than the thickness of the belt body section 28, which will be described later, of the belt section 26. (See Figure 6). A control circuit board, a battery, and the like for generating a low-frequency current are housed within the massage section 21 .

A part of the inner circumferential surface 21a side and a part of the left and right side edges of the massage part 21 are formed of an elastomer made of the same material as the left and right belt parts 26, and this elastomer part is made of the same material as the left and right belt parts 26. It is set up to surround. In this embodiment, the specific shape, size, material, structure, etc. of the massage section 21 are not particularly limited.

The left and right belt portions 26 are made of a soft elastomer with flexibility and elasticity so that they can be bent and twisted. In the present invention, the left and right belt portions 26 do not need to have elasticity as long as they have flexibility. The left and right belt parts 26 are provided integrally with the massage part 21 and extend from the left and right side edges of the massage part 21, respectively.

When the holder member 40 is not attached to the belt part 26 (see FIGS. 4 to 7), the left and right belt parts 26 extend from the massage part 21 while bending inward in the left and right direction, and The belt portions 26 extend straight along the front-rear direction so as to be parallel to each other. In this embodiment, the left and right belt portions 26 have shapes that are symmetrical to each other.

Each of the left and right belt portions 26 has an inner circumferential surface forming surfaces facing each other, an outer circumferential surface disposed on the opposite side of the inner circumferential surface, and a region extending from the side edge of the inner circumferential surface to the side edge of the outer circumferential surface. It has a pair of upper and lower end edges. In this case, the vertical dimension between the upper and lower end edges of the belt portion 26 is defined as the belt width dimension. Further, the maximum value of the distance between the inner circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface of the belt portion 26 is defined as the belt thickness dimension.

Each belt portion 26 includes a belt base end portion 27 connected to the massage portion 21, a belt main body portion 28 extending long and thin from the belt base end portion 27 with a constant belt width dimension, and a belt tip portion forming the tip portion of the belt portion 26. 29. The belt base end portion 27 gradually decreases the belt width from the massage portion 21 toward the belt main body portion 28, and extends while bending inward in the left-right direction so that the belt portion 26 is oriented in the front-rear direction.

The belt main body portion 28 is formed to extend straight in the front-rear direction when the holder member 40 is not held by the belt portion 26. In the cross section perpendicular to the length direction (front-back direction) of the belt main body 28, the belt width dimension is larger than the belt thickness dimension over the entire length direction of the belt main body 28 (i.e., the top and bottom It has a constant flat shape (longer in the direction and shorter in the left-right direction).

A plurality of thin plate-shaped circular magnets 31 are embedded in each of the left and right belt main body parts 28 at regular intervals along the length direction (front and rear direction) of the belt main body part 28 (see FIG. 7). ). In this case, it is preferable that the magnet 31 be installed at least in a range from a portion of the belt body 28 close to the belt tip 29 to an intermediate position in the length direction of the belt body 28 . Further, since the belt main body part 28 is formed to be elongated and have a flat cross section as described above, it is possible to stably embed the plurality of magnets 31 along the length direction of the belt main body part 28. can. Note that in this embodiment, the shape and size of the magnet 31 are not particularly limited.

The belt tip 29 is rounded to have a semicircular or approximately semicircular shape, for example, in a side view (FIG. 7) when the neck hanging member 20 is viewed from the left and right sides. Note that "substantially semicircular" means a shape close to a semicircle. By providing such belt tip portions 29 on the left and right belt portions 26, when the belt portion 26 is inserted into the later-described insertion hole 42 of the holder member 40, the belt portion 26 is inserted. It can be easily inserted into the hole 42. Note that the shape of the belt tip 29 is not limited; for example, the belt tip 29 may be formed into a pointed shape such as a triangular tip.

As shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the holder member 40 includes left and right belt insertion portions 41 through which the belt portion 26 of the neck hanging member 20 is inserted, and a curved connection portion 43 that connects the left and right belt insertion portions 41. has. This holder member 40 has a shape that is symmetrical with respect to the center in the left-right direction. Further, the holder member 40 is made of synthetic resin that is harder than the belt portion 26. Further, the holder member 40 has appropriate rigidity and elasticity to maintain the orientation of the belt portion 26 inserted into the belt insertion portion 41.

Each of the left and right belt insertion portions 41 is provided with an insertion hole 42 through which the belt main body portion 28 of the belt portion 26 is inserted. Each insertion hole 42 passes straight through the belt insertion portion 41 from the front end surface to the rear end surface. Therefore, in the holder member 40, the left and right belt body parts 28 having a constant cross-sectional shape in the neck hanging member 20 can be inserted into the left and right insertion holes 42, and the belt body parts 28 can be inserted into the left and right belt insertion parts 41. With each section 28 inserted, it is possible to move in the front-rear direction along the belt main body section 28, as shown by arrow 5 in FIG.

Further, the left and right insertion holes 42 in the holder member 40 are formed so that the belt body portion 28 of the belt portion 26 extending from the massage portion 21 is inserted therethrough in a twisted direction. For example, in the case of the present embodiment, the left and right insertion holes 42 are oriented horizontally so that the belt main body 28 is inserted in an attitude such that the inner circumferential surface and outer circumferential surface of the belt main body 28 are oriented not in the horizontal direction but in the vertical direction. It is formed in the shape of. Here, the lateral orientation of the insertion hole 42 means an orientation in which the horizontal dimension of the insertion hole 42 is larger than the vertical dimension in a rear view of the holder member 40 from the rear side (see FIG. 10). do.

That is, in this embodiment, when the holder member 40 is held on the left and right belt parts 26 of the neck hanging member 20, the belt base end 27 of the belt part 26 is attached to the belt part 26, as shown in FIG. The inner circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface are held in an orientation parallel or substantially parallel to the vertical direction (hereinafter referred to as a first orientation). On the other hand, the portion of the belt portion 26 that is inserted into the insertion hole 42 of the holder member 40 is arranged so that the inner circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface of the belt portion 26 are orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the vertical direction (hereinafter referred to as the second direction). (call). In this case, the first direction and the second direction of the belt portion 26 are, respectively, a direction in which the flat cross section is along the vertical direction when looking at a cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the belt portion 26; It can also be expressed as a direction along the left-right direction.

Therefore, when the holder member 40 is attached to the neck hanging member 20, the belt portion 26 of the present embodiment has a structure in which the belt is inserted from the base end portion 27 of the belt toward the portion inserted into the insertion hole 42 of the holder member 40. The inner and outer peripheral surfaces of the portion 26 are held by the holder member 40 in a twisted state so as to be gradually inclined from the first direction described above to the second direction described above.

Furthermore, since the insertion hole 42 of the holder member 40 is formed laterally as described above, the entire holder member 40 can be easily formed to be thin. This makes it possible to make the holder member 40 less noticeable when the holder member 40 is held under the clothes 3 around the chest area of the user 1 (see FIG. 1), as will be described later. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the person 1 feels that the holder member 40 is a hindrance.

In this embodiment, the left and right belt insertion parts 41 of the holder member 40 are equipped with magnets (not shown) that can generate magnetic force between them and the magnets 31 embedded in the left and right belt parts 26 of the neck hanging member 20. A metal member (for example, a steel plate) is embedded. In this case, the magnet or metal member embedded in the belt insertion portion 41 preferably has a size corresponding to the magnet 31 embedded in the belt portion 26.

By embedding such a magnet or metal member in the belt insertion portion 41, the magnetic force generated between the magnet or metal member of the holder member 40 and the magnet 31 embedded in the belt portion 26 is used. The holder member 40 can be stably held on the left and right belt parts 26 of the neck hanging member 20 at the position where the magnet 31 of the belt part 26 is embedded. In addition, by holding the holder member 40 using magnetic force, it is possible to stably maintain the holding state of the holder member 40. 40 can be prevented from falling off from the neck hanging member 20 without permission.

Note that when the user 1 intentionally removes the holder member 40 from the neck hanging member 20, the holder member 40 may be pulled and moved downward along the left and right belt portions 26 against the above-mentioned magnetic force. Thereby, the holder member 40 can be easily removed from the neck hanging member 20.

Further, in the neck hanging member 20 of this embodiment, as described above, a plurality of magnets 31 are embedded at regular intervals along the length direction of the belt main body portion 28. Thereby, the holding position of the holder member 40 with respect to the left and right belt parts 26 can be changed in stages according to the position where the magnet 31 is embedded. Therefore, the user 1 can easily adjust the size of the neck portion 11 of the neck massager 10 step by step.

By holding the holder member 40 on the belt portion 26 using magnetic force in this manner, the ease of use of the neck massager 10 can be improved. In the present invention, the means for holding the holder member on the belt portion is not particularly limited. For example, the holder member may be held on the belt portion without using magnetic force by effectively utilizing the frictional force generated between the holder member and the belt portion.

The connecting portion 43 of the holder member 40 is formed continuously from the belt insertion portion 41 on the left side to the belt insertion portion 41 on the right side so as to connect the belt insertion portions 41 on the left and right sides of the holder member 40. Further, the connecting portion 43 is arranged in a direction in which, for example, in a plan view of the neck massager 10 in which the holder member 40 is held by the left and right belt portions 26 (FIG. 3), the center portion of the connecting portion 43 in the left-right direction moves away from the massage portion 21. It has a curved shape that swells convexly toward (downward).

Further, the connecting portion 43 of the holder member 40 has a thickness dimension between the upper surface and the lower surface of the connecting portion 43 in the left-right direction from the left and right belt insertion portions 41 when the holder member 40 is held by the left and right belt portions 26. It is formed so that it gradually decreases towards the central part. In this case, the upper surface of the connecting portion 43 is formed into a curved surface that is concave downward, and the lower surface of the connecting portion 43 is formed into a substantially flat surface that slightly bulges downward. (See Figure 10).

Since the connecting portion 43 of the holder member 40 is formed in this way, when the neck massager 10 of this embodiment is worn on the neck 2 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 11, for example, the holder The member 40 can be made difficult to come into contact with the user's 1's neck 2 or jaw. Furthermore, when the holder member 40 is held on the left and right belt portions 26, the lower surface of the holder member 40 comes into contact with the chest area of the user 1, making it easier for the holder member 40 to be supported by the user's 1 chest area. As a result, the holder member 40 can easily fit the body of the user 1, and the position of the holder member 40 can be easily stabilized when using the neck massager 10. The position of 21 can also be made easier to stabilize.

Moreover, the position of the center of gravity of the holder member 40 can be lowered by curving the connecting portion 43 of the holder member 40 so as to protrude downward from the left and right belt insertion portions 41. As a result, the left and right belt parts 26 can be easily balanced, and the neck hanging member 20 can be made difficult to tilt left and right.

When the neck massager 10 of this embodiment as described above is worn on the neck 2 of the user 1, the neck hanging member 20 is first attached to the neck 2 of the user 1 with the neck hanging member 20 and the holder member 40 separated from each other. Hang it around your neck 2. At this time, the position of the massage part 21 of the neck hanging member 20 is adjusted so that the electrode part 22 of the massage part 21 contacts the nape of the neck, and the left and right flexible belt parts 26 are placed on the back side of the neck 2. The neck hanging member 20 is hung from the neck 2 so that it hangs from the chest.

Next, the holder member 40 is attached to the left and right belt portions 26 of the neck hanging member 20 hanging from the neck 2. At this time, the belt tip ends 29 of the belt portion 26 are inserted into the left and right insertion holes 42 of the holder member 40, respectively, and the belt main body portion 28 is inserted into the insertion holes 42.

Thereby, the holder member 40 can be moved along the left and right belt body parts 28. Furthermore, when the holder member 40 is stopped relative to the belt main body 28, there is a gap between the magnet 31 embedded in the belt main body 28 and the magnet or metal member embedded in the belt insertion part 41 of the holder member 40. By utilizing the magnetic force generated by the belt, the holder member 40 can be stably held at the position where the magnet 31 of the belt main body 28 is embedded.

As a result, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, for example, the user can use the neck massager 10 while the massage part 21 (particularly the two electrode parts 22 of the massage part 21) is in contact with the back side of the neck 2. It can be easily attached to the neck 2 of the person. In particular, in the neck massager 10 of this embodiment, when the holder member 40 is attached to the left and right belt parts 26, each belt part 26 is held in a twisted state as described above. Therefore, compared to, for example, the case where the left and right belt parts 26 are held by the holder member 40 in an untwisted state, the left and right belt parts 26 can be tightened to prevent loosening, and as a result, the massage part 21 can be tightened. More stable contact can be made with the back side of the neck 2.

Furthermore, in the neck massager 10 of this embodiment, by changing the holding position of the holder member 40 with respect to the left and right belt parts 26, the size of the neck part 11 formed by the neck hanging member 20 and the holder member 40 can be adjusted by the user. It is also possible to easily adjust it according to the preferences of 1.

After the neck massager 10 is attached to the neck 2, the switch part 23 of the massage part 21 on the back side of the neck 2 is pressed to switch the massage part 21 into the operating state. Thereby, a low frequency current can be applied to the neck 2 of the user 1 from the two electrode sections 22 of the massage section 21, and a low frequency massage can be performed on the neck 2. In the case of this embodiment, the neck massager 10 may be attached to the neck 2 after the massage section 21 is switched to the operating state.

On the other hand, when removing the neck massager 10 attached to the neck 2 of the user 1, the holder member 40 held by the left and right belt parts 26 is moved downward and the holder member 40 is removed from the belt part 26. By doing so, the neck hanging member 20 and the holder member 40 are separated. Thereby, the neck massager 10 can be easily removed from the neck 2.

The neck massager (neck-hanging type device) 10 of the present embodiment as described above has the elongated left and right belt parts 26 extending from the massage part 21 hanging from the back side of the neck 2 of the user 1 to the chest area, and It is used with the holder member 40 attached to the left and right hanging belt parts 26. Further, in this case, since the left and right belt portions 26 are flexible, the belt portions 26 can be easily bent along the lines of the user's 1 body.

Thereby, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, for example, by putting at least a part of the neck hanging member 20 (for example, the left and right belt parts 26) and the holder member 40 under the clothes 3, the neck massager 10 can be easily hidden with clothes 3. Therefore, even if the neck massager 10 is worn on the neck 2 of the user 1, the neck massager 10 can be made less noticeable and difficult to be seen by other people, so the neck massager 10 can be worn when going out. It can reduce resistance to. Furthermore, since the left and right belt portions 26 are made of flexible and soft elastomer, it is possible to prevent the user from feeling uncomfortable when the neck massager 10 is worn on the neck 2.

In addition, in the neck massager 10 of the present embodiment, the left and right elongated belt parts 26 of the neck hanging member 20 are brought into contact with the neck 2 of the user 1 from the massage part 21 arranged on the back side of the neck 2. It can be turned to both the left and right sides of the body and hang down towards the chest. Thereby, the position of the massage part 21 can be made difficult to shift from side to side. Furthermore, in this embodiment, by attaching the holder member 40 to the left and right belt parts 26, the positions of the left and right belt parts 26 can be stabilized.

Therefore, even if the user's 1 body shakes back and forth or left and right, it is possible to prevent or suppress the position of the neck massager 10 (in particular, the position of the massage part 21) relative to the neck 2 from shifting. Thereby, even if the neck massager 10 is worn on the neck 2 when the user 1 walks or rides a train, for example, it is possible to easily maintain the state in which the massage part 21 is in contact with the back side of the neck 2. Therefore, the user can easily receive a low frequency massage on the neck 2 using the neck massager 10. Furthermore, the troublesomeness of the user 1 having to press the neck massager 10 with his/her hands can be eliminated or suppressed. Furthermore, the neck massager 10 of this embodiment can be stored compactly by bending the left and right belt portions 26, making it convenient to carry.

Furthermore, in the neck massager 10 of this embodiment, by changing the holding position of the holder member 40 with respect to the left and right belt parts 26 up and down, the neck of the neck massager 10 formed by the neck hanging member 20 and the holder member 40 can be adjusted. The size of the surrounding portion 11 can be easily adjusted according to the preference, physique, mood, etc. of the user 1.

For example, in normal times, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, by holding the holder member 40 at the lower end position of the left and right belt parts 26 or at a position close to the lower end part, the neck massager 10 is moved around the neck of the user 1. 2, you can receive a low-frequency massage while wearing it relatively loosely. At this time, the left and right belt portions 26 are held in a twisted state as described above, so even if the neck massager 10 is loosely worn on the neck 2, the left and right belt portions 26 may become loose. This makes it possible to make the massage part 21 stably contact the back side of the neck 2.

On the other hand, for example, when the user 1 wants to receive the low frequency massage of the neck massager 10 more effectively, as shown in FIG. Move it above the indicated position. Thereby, the size of the neck portion 11 of the neck massager 10 can be reduced.

Further, since the holding position of the holder member 40 is moved closer to the massage section 21, the left and right belt sections 26 are twisted within a short range from the massage section 21 to the holding position. As a result, the left and right belt portions 26 are tightened, so that the massage portion 21 can be more stably brought into contact (preferably brought into close contact) with the back side of the neck 2. Therefore, the user 1 can receive low frequency massage more effectively by the massage part 21 that is firmly in contact with (or in close contact with) the neck 2. Note that even if the holding position of the holder member 40 is moved upward as shown in FIG. , the neck massager 10 can be made difficult to be seen by others.

Furthermore, in the neck massager 10 of this embodiment, a plurality of magnets 31 are embedded in the belt body portions 28 of the left and right belt portions 26 at regular intervals. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 12, for example, by overlapping the left and right belt body parts 28, the magnets 31 of the left belt body part 28 and the magnets 31 of the right belt body part 28 are attracted to each other. The overlapping state of the belt portions 26 can be maintained. Thereby, even without using the holder member 40, it is possible to bring the massage part 21 into contact with the neck 2 and perform a low frequency massage.

Moreover, the neck massager 10 of this embodiment has a relatively simple structure. That is, in this embodiment, the neck massager 10 having a relatively simple structure can provide the above-mentioned excellent effects and functions that have not been available in the past, without causing a significant increase in manufacturing costs.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications can be made as long as they have substantially the same configuration as the present invention and produce similar effects. . For example, in the above-described embodiment, a case is described in which the neck-hanging type device is a neck massager 10 that performs a low-frequency massage on the neck 2. However, in the present invention, the massage part 21 of the neck massager 10 may be formed to perform high frequency massage or medium frequency massage on the neck 2, or may be formed so as to apply vibration to the neck 2 to perform massage. You can leave it there.

In addition, in the neck-hanging device of the present invention, the main body of the device, which is switched between an operating state and a non-operating state, is not the massage part 21 that massages the neck 2, but a heater equipped with a heating function to warm the neck 2, for example. or may be formed to perform other functions such as a cooler section with a function of cooling the neck 2.
