Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a massage device that can be easily used at home for recovery from back pain and fatigue in the legs and waist.

[Prior art] Recently, a massage method called "ironing health method" has been proposed, which can eliminate stiff shoulders, back pain, etc. using only an iron and a bath towel at home.

In this method, the patient is laid face down, a bath towel is put on the body, and a heated iron is slipped from the soles of the feet to the shoulders. It is possible to eliminate the fatigue contraction state of muscles of the affected area such as legs, waist and shoulders by the effect of warm moxibustion by ironing and the effect of shiatsu massage by operating method, which is said to be completed in about 15 minutes. There is.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

The ironing health method has a drawback that, in performing the ironing, the patient is ironed, and a practitioner who subsequently performs the gymnastics method is separately required, and cannot be carried out by himself. It has a drawback that it acts only on the surface layer of the skin and has a poor action on the deep part. Further, it requires acupressure after ironing, which is troublesome.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above drawbacks, and the purpose thereof is to provide a massager that can be carried out by oneself, can permeate heat to the deep part of the body, and can also provide acupressure action at the same time. Is what you are trying to do.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a main body made of a heat-resistant material having a built-in heater coil and a foldable handle at the center of the upper surface, and a ceramic attached to the lower surface of the main body and emitting far infrared rays by heating. The heating surface part made of ceramics and the acupressure balls containing a magnetic material, which are provided downwardly at a plurality of positions on the heating surface part made of ceramics, are provided.

[Action]

The handle is folded and the main body is grounded on the floor with the heating surface made of ceramic facing upward, and the user himself moves the affected part such as the shoulder, back, and waist in the supine posture and makes contact with the affected part. With this, the user himself can heat the affected part to a deep part by the far-infrared heating effect generated by the heating surface made of ceramic by heating the heater coil, and at the same time, the acupressure ball can massage and massage the heated muscle. Furthermore, the magnetic material in the acupressure bulb can improve blood circulation.

Of course, when two couples use it, if one person is lying down and the other person holds the handle upright and slowly presses the patient's shoulder, back, waist, legs, etc. in order. Good. In addition, it can be carried out while wearing clothes,
Apply towels to exposed parts such as feet.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the massage device according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view when the handle is lying down, and FIG.
FIG. 4 is a vertical cross-sectional side view of the massage device shown in FIG. 4, and FIG. 4 is a vertical cross-sectional side view for explaining a usage state when the massage device of FIG. 1 is used by one person.

1 to 4, (1) is a main body, (2) is a heater coil, (3) is a handle, (4) is a temperature control device, (5) is its adjusting knob, and (6) is an electric cord. , (7) indicates a ceramic heating surface portion that emits far infrared rays by heating, (8) indicates an acupressure ball, and (9) indicates a magnetic material.

The main body (1) is made of a heat-resistant material such as heat-resistant special plastic in the shape of a box with an open bottom, the heater coil (2) is installed inside, and the handle (3) is hinged (10) to the upper surface (9). ) (10) is attached so that it can be folded up and down to the left and right.

The planar shape of the main body (1) is illustrated as being substantially rectangular, but it may be a boat shape, an elliptical shape, or any other suitable shape.

The temperature control device (4) is built in the rear part of the main body (1), and the adjustment knob (5) is provided on the rear side surface, and it is adjusted appropriately to about 50 ° C to 120 ° C so as not to burn the human body. In addition, an electrical cord (6) is provided for connecting to the power supply.

A ceramic heating surface portion (7) is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the main body (1).

The ceramic heating surface portion (7) is made of a material known as a ceramic heater material that emits far infrared rays by heating, and has substantially the same shape as the main body (1), and its thickness has required strength and heatability. It is set in consideration, and the lower surface is a flat surface or a convex arc surface.

The acupressure ball (8) has a spherical tip, a magnetic material (9) made of a ferromagnetic material such as a magnet is incorporated therein, and the tip is projected below the heating surface of the ceramic heating surface (7). A fixed number of springs or springs (not shown)
It is installed so that you can go in and out through.

The massager according to the present invention, which has the above-described structure, will be described below in terms of its usage.

First, when using it alone, fold the handle (3) to make it flat, place the ceramic heating surface (7) upwards, and place it on a mattress, cushion, or fold, so that the user is in a supine position. , Move the affected area such as the shoulder, back, and waist and make contact. The heating surface part (7) made of ceramic emits far infrared rays by being heated by the heater coil (2), and heats the patient's muscle to a deep part. At the same time, massage the heated muscles with the acupressure ball (8). Furthermore, the magnetic material (9) in the acupressure ball (8) promotes blood circulation.

Of course, it can be used in the same manner as the well-known iron health method.
In this case, you can heat the muscles of the affected area and acupressure at the same time,
In addition, the blood circulation promoting action of the magnetic material can be improved.

[Effect of device]

According to the present invention, the well-known iron health method can be performed by one person, and the far-infrared rays can heat the affected muscle to a deep part, and furthermore, the acupressure effect can be simultaneously given by the acupressure ball. There is an advantage that the blood circulation promoting action by the magnetic material can also be obtained.
