Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hand-held tapping massage machine, and more specifically, a tapping massager having a heating function for exerting a more effective massage effect in combination with tapping massage operation. It relates to massage machines.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a hand-held vibration massage machine called a vibrator, there is a vibration treatment section (surface) and a heating section (surface) formed on the same section (surface) of a head, In a handheld tapping massage machine that reciprocally moves the part to perform a tapping massage in the tapping part, there was no one that was equipped with a heating part that warms the treatment surface and a function to perform massage using heat in combination. .

[0003]

Since the hitting massage machine is not provided with the heating portion as described above, it is impossible to perform an effective massage such as hitting massage while warming the treatment surface. Also, it is possible to apply a heating part to the vibrating surface like a vibration massage to provide a heating part to the beating ball that becomes the hitting part, but if the heating part is directly provided to the beating ball, it will The treatment surface and the beating ball repeatedly come into contact with or separate from each other according to the striking operation, and there is a problem that heat cannot be stably applied to the treatment section. In addition, there is a problem that even if heat is applied to the beating ball, the contact area with the treatment surface is small and only the contact at the time of hitting occurs, the thermal conductivity of temperature is poor, and effective heat cannot be applied.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an effective massage by tapping massage while warming the treated surface, and moreover, the treated surface is effective. There is a massage machine that can be heated.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the massage machine of the present invention is a massage machine in which the hitting portion 1 is reciprocally moved to perform a hitting massage at the hitting portion 1, and the hitting portion 1 and the treatment surface are heated. The heating portion 2 and the heating portion 2 are separately formed, and the heating portion 2 is formed around the hitting portion 1.

[0006]

According to the above construction, the heating portion 2 around the hitting portion 1
The hitting portion 1 can be driven to perform a hitting massage while the subject is in contact with the treatment surface, and an effective massage can be performed by hitting the treatment surface while heating. In addition, regardless of the operation of the hitting portion, the heating portion 2 can be constantly applied to the treatment surface to heat it, and a stable heating action can always be given to provide a more effective massage. Further, by applying heat from the periphery of the treatment section to be treated by striking it with the striking section, it is possible to promote blood circulation in a wide range, and by striking the central portion thereof, it is possible to further enhance blood circulation in the affected area.

I am allowed. When the power switch 7 is turned on, pulsed power is supplied via the control circuit section 8 to the head section 4
Can be supplied to the solenoid 14. The power switch 7 is operated by the switch knob 11. By switching the power switch 7, "OFF",
It is possible to switch between "striking" and "striking + heat". Further, the volume 9 can be adjusted by operating the variable dial 12, so that the frequency of the pulse can be adjusted to adjust the number of hits.

The outer shell of the head portion 4 is a pair of head covers 1
5 is formed by assembling the head cover 15
A solenoid 14 for driving the striking portion 1 is internally provided. The plunger 16 is reciprocally driven by supplying the pulsed electric power to the solenoid 14 as described above. A flange portion 17 is provided on the upper end of the plunger 16 and contacts the upper surface of the solenoid 14 in a state where the plunger 16 is lowered so that the plunger 16 cannot be lowered any further. At the lower end of the connecting rod 23 connected to the lower end of the plunger 16, a hitting ball 1a serving as a hitting part 1 is mounted, and a coil spring 27 for urging the hitting ball 1a downward is solenoided on the outer circumference of the connecting rod 23. It is interposed between 14 and the beating ball 1a. A heating part 2 made of a good heat conductor such as aluminum is provided on the outer circumference of the hit ball 1a.
