Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] [Prior art] The technology of the present invention is a continuous acupressure pressure therapy device (hereinafter referred to as "Technology A") disclosed in patent application No. 1983-232260 by the applicant. , Utility Model Registration Application No. 1-67390 (Heisei 1-67390) Continuous Acupressure Therapy Device (hereinafter referred to as O Technology) There are only two such cases.

Therefore, first of all, I will explain the technique A. As shown in the plan view of FIG. 17 and the front view of FIG. The two moving grooves 25 are arranged vertically, and each of the moving grooves 25 rotates synchronously and within a certain amount in opposite directions.
5, the drive shaft 22 is connected to a drive device so as to simultaneously move vertically along It is bent at a right angle to form an arm 26, a screw hole is drilled in the bent end of the upper side, a bolt 27 of the planned length is screwed into this, and a fingertip-sized steel kneading ball 28 is fixed to each end of the arm 26. Two combined arm bodies E of the same shape are prepared, and each arm body E is inserted into the drive shaft 22 with the massaging balls 28 above it as indicated by the solid line in FIG. 21, or is pulled out. As indicated by the dotted line, the massage balls 28 can be inserted as a lower part and can be attached and detached.

The instep technique of such a structure is, for example, as shown in Fig. 22, when each arm body E is turned on with the kneading balls facing upward, each arm repeatedly rotates within a certain amount in opposite directions as shown by the arrows. .

For example, when treating the shoulders, back, and lower back, this instep technique involves pulling out and removing the arm E on one side and rotating the massage balls 28 using the arm E on only one side, as shown in Figure 23. The patient sits sideways on the seat 24 with the affected area facing the direction of movement so as to fully receive the pressing force caused by the rotation of the massage balls 28.

The pressing force of the massaging balls 28 is strong, but in order to sufficiently receive this pressure to the affected area, it would be meaningless if the upper body moves away every time the pressure is applied, so place both legs on the floor and both arms. must be supported by placing them on the armrests 23, so the lower part of the armrests 23 are all open, and depending on the treatment position, the armrests 23 may get in the way. The armrest 23 is designed so that it can be pulled out and removed.

When treating legs, arms, etc., the legs and arms are inserted between the massage balls 28 and massaged, as shown in Figure 22. In this case, the bolts 27 can be operated to make adjustments so that all parts of the body can be treated.

The planar area of the kneading balls is about the size of a fingertip in the case of acupressure, and in order to completely transmit the pressing force, the kneading balls are purposely made of steel rather than a flexible material such as rubber.

However, with this kind of structure, for example, during a pinch massage treatment as shown in Figure 22, if the practitioner temporarily leaves due to a call or a visitor, the switch will naturally be turned off.
A situation is considered in which the robot is stopped as an OF, but the arm remains as it is.

Although the instructions for use instruct the user to always pull out one side of the arm E when leaving the location, there may be cases where the user forgets to do this.

Since this device is used in general households, if it is left in the pinched and kneaded state shown in Figure 22, if a child plays a trick and turns on the switch, it may get caught between the kneading balls 28. When dangers are predicted, safety measures become imperative.

Therefore, as a safety measure, technology B was developed, as shown in the plan view shown in the attached drawings, Fig. 24 and the side view shown in Fig. 25. The vertical part 30 is bent into a horizontal part 29 and a vertical part 30, and a screw hole is drilled in the single part of the vertical part 30, and a bolt 27 is screwed into it, and kneading balls 28 are placed on both sides. The lower end of the vertical portion 30 is housed in the channel 31 and connected with a screw 33 so as to rotate within the channel 31, and the pivot shaft 22 is inserted into the excess channel. An arm body F is used as a structure in which the insertion rod 32 to be obtained is fixed.

Such an arm body F is inserted into the insertion rod 3 as shown in Fig. 26.
2 is fixed in a horizontal state, the horizontal portion 29, the bolt 27, and the kneading ball 28 automatically roll downward due to their own weight.

Therefore, when this is inserted into the pivot shaft 22 of the chair body D as shown in FIG. 27, the arm body E on one side has the same structure as in FIGS. However, the arm body F on one side is rotated under its own weight, and the position of the massaging balls 28 is extremely different, so there is no risk of being caught.

In this technique, since treatment for areas other than legs and arms is performed only on one side of arm body E, arm body F is unnecessary and removed. This will result in pinching by both E and the arm F, but this can be avoided by turning the arm F upwards and supporting the horizontal part with your hands, as shown in FIG.

However, when the arms E and F are moved downward to move the treatment area downward as indicated by the dotted lines, it becomes impossible to support the treatment area with the hands, and the patient must be supported using strings, etc. It is complicated.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The above-mentioned technique B requires the support of the arm F at all times in the case of pinching, but this is cumbersome, and it has been pointed out that the supporting arm becomes fatigued.

[Means for solving problems]

This problem with technique B is caused by the fact that the arm body F is rolled down in its longitudinal direction, so the most appropriate means is to have a structure in which the arm body is rolled horizontally in the direction of the opposing arm. This situation can be resolved very rationally.

[Function and Examples]

The present application will be explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings FIGS. 1 to 16.

In the sectional view shown in FIG. 1 and the plan view shown in FIG. 2, 1 is a joint made of round steel, and 2 is a shaft rod whose majority is cut into square steel.

Next, referring to the cross-sectional view in FIG. 3 and the plan view in FIG. The rotation hole 4, which is a rectangular hole having the same shape, is bored at the upper and lower sides of the upper center part.

Next, in the sectional view shown in FIG. 5 and the plan view shown in FIG. A round steel piece that can be inserted more loosely into the rotary pipe 3 is machined, and this is used as the rotary rod 5, and a screw hole 7 is bored at the end thereof.

As shown in Fig. 7, each member described above is fixedly connected to the rotary pipe 3 by inserting the coupling part 1 from the upper part of the rotary pipe 3, and by inserting the rotary rod 5 from the lower part. Align screw hole 7 and rotation hole 4, and screw screw 9
The rotary rod 5 and the rotary pipe 3 are integrally connected to each other with rotatability to form the rotary arm body A by stopping and fixing this with a washer 10.

The rotating state of the rotating pipe 3 and the rotating rod 5 changes from the vertical state of the screw 9 as shown in FIG. 8 to the overturned state of FIG. 9.
can freely rotate within the range of the rotation hole 4.

As shown in the side view of FIG. 10 and the plan view of FIG. The part directly above the fixed part is bent by the required amount in the direction of rotation of the support rod 6, and the other end is fixed with a connector 12 with a screw hole, into which a bolt 13 is screwed. Place 1 massage ball on both ends.
4 is fixed.

Next, there is shown a side view in FIG. 12 and a plan view in FIG. 13, which respectively relate to the fixed arm body B. Reference numeral 6 denotes a support rod, and the support rod 6 has the same square rod as the support rod 6. 6 and the rotary pipe 3, and the supporting rod 6 is attached to the end thereof.
A support hole 8 of the same shape is drilled in the same part as above, and an arm equipped with a connector 12 bolt 13 of the same shape as above and a kneading ball 14 is inserted and connected thereto, and the other end of the support rod 6 is The shaft rod 2, which is exactly the same as the rotating arm body A, is also machined by cutting.

Rotating arm body A and fixed arm body B that can be explained above
passes through the drive shaft 17 of the chair body C as shown in the front view of FIG. 14 and the plan view of FIG. 15, respectively.
Since the rotating arm A is bent sideways by the required amount from the beginning of the passage, the rotating arm A will roll over to the fixed arm B side as indicated by the dotted line due to its own weight. In this state, it is absolutely impossible to put your body between the massage balls 14.

And if you need to use pinching again, please refer to the 16th
The treatment can be performed by raising the rotating arm body A as shown in the figure.

Needless to say in detail, the rotating arm body A rolls over onto the side of the fixed arm body B, which is juxtaposed by the rotation hole 4 and the screw 9, as described above, but on the other side, there is a slight amount of the original amount when they are connected. Since it is regulated in a tilted state, it is extremely simple to pinch without the need for supporting means as in the technique B.

[Effect of idea]

More than 40 years have passed since the end of the war, and while our people have acquired a rich diet during this period, the amount of exercise they do has drastically decreased due to improvements in transportation facilities, etc. Also, due to various reasons such as rapid changes in the social environment, stiff shoulders, The number of patients suffering from various types of muscle and joint pain, including back pain, is rapidly increasing.

Modern medicine deals with this problem by using pharmaceutical therapy, and physical therapy such as moxibustion, acupressure, and pine surgery is also widely used, but the reality is that none of them have definitive effects.

This is because pharmaceutical therapy is accompanied by side effects, and the above-mentioned physical therapy is a partial treatment that sets ``acupuncture points''.

In addition to the above-mentioned technique A and B, as in the invention of the present application, the patient is placed sideways on the chair and the affected area is faced in the direction of movement of the massage balls, or the legs and arms are pinched and massaged while freely adjusting the distance between the massage balls. A treatment device that continuously applies pressure all over the body has not yet been developed, and many patients have been rescued with this device.
