[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a massager.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, as a massager that massages by this kind of vibration, for example, in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-144025, a massager in which a cushion material is built in a circular cushion body and a vibration device is embedded in the cushion material is disclosed. In addition, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-140937, an electric massager in which a vibration device is directly attached to the body via a belt is proposed. In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-75259, urethane is used. A back cushion with a vibration device fixed to the body side of the cushion material has been proposed.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-144025, since the vibration of the vibrating device is transmitted to the affected area through the cushion material inside the cushion body, a part of the vibration transmitted to the affected area is absorbed by the cushion material and the massage effect is achieved. In addition, since the cushion body cannot be folded, it takes up space during storage and is inferior in storage capacity.In addition, this massager does not apply to the massage of the affected area such as the waist. Although suitable, it was not suitable to use this cushion-type massager to massage shoulders, thighs, and other affected areas. On the other hand, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-140937, the belt can be adjusted to selectively attach the vibrating device to a predetermined affected part. Since it is also transmitted to other parts, it has a poor usability. On the other hand, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-75259, although vibration is not transmitted to other than the affected part where the vibrating device is pressed by the cushion material, its use is limited to the backrest type where the user sits down and massages the affected part such as the waist. Therefore, it is not suitable for use in other affected areas.Because a cushioning material that absorbs vibrations is provided on the rear surface of the vibration device, some of the vibrations are absorbed by the cushioning function of the cushioning material. There was a problem that the massage effect was inferior.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a massager which has an excellent massage effect, can be used in various affected areas, and has excellent storability.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention provides a flexible cushion body having a bag shape, an inlet through which air can enter and leave the cushion body, an air layer formed in the cushion body by the air injected from the inlet, and the cushion. The vibration device is detachably fixed to the front surface of the air layer formed in the main body.

[0006]

[Action]

 With the above structure, when the vibrating device is applied to the affected part while holding the cushion body, not only the vibration of the vibrating device is amplified by the air layer on the rear surface, but also when the cushion body is supported by hand, the vibration transmitted to the hand. Can be significantly attenuated. When used for massaging various affected areas, it can be attached to the cushion body for each affected area and massaged under suitable usage conditions. In addition, the flexible cushion body can be folded for compact storage.
