Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (a) Purpose of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an acupressure device that belongs to physical therapy of the human body.

(Conventional Known Technology) Conventionally, the so-called pine surge machine has been used to perform massage treatment by sliding the arm rod to which the massage ball is attached from side to side via an eccentric shaft, or to perform tapping treatment by moving it back and forth. This is the general form of By the way, in the above case, the purpose is to apply shock to a wide range of the skin surface to promote blood circulation, but there is a drawback that it is not possible to treat diseases by applying pressure locally (acupressure).

(Problems to be solved by the present invention) In order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and perform local pressurization, the present invention advances and retreats a pressurizing body having an arcuate surface at the tip in a straight line, thereby providing pressure treatment for acupuncture points. The aim is to solve this problem by making it possible.

(B) Structure of the present invention (Means for solving the problem) As an example of the present invention, the main shaft 2 that extends through the substrate 1 is a square shaft, and the lower part of the shaft is a cylinder with openings at both ends. A shaped cam receiver 3 is fixed to a substrate, and cam receiver portions 4 are formed on both sides of the cam receiver. Cylindrical cam body 5 with a small diameter at the upper end
A shaft insertion hole 6 with an angular cross section that engages with the main shaft and can freely slide is bored in the central shaft portion, and the main shaft is inserted into the hole, and a flange 8 and a hole end 7 attached to the tip of the main shaft are inserted. The cam members are engaged to prevent the cam member from coming off, a wave-shaped cam surface 9 is formed on the lower end surface of the cam member, and a circumferential groove 10 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the upper end opening of the cam member.

The pressurizing body 11 has an arcuate surface 12 at its tip and an opening 13 at its lower end.
The opening portion is rotatably attached to the small diameter portion of the upper end of the cam body.

When fitted, the tip of the screw 14 attached to the lower outer periphery of the pressurizing body is engaged with the circumferential groove to prevent the pressurizing body from coming off. The main shaft is rotated by an electric motor M.

Next, to describe another example, the main shaft 15 that extends through the substrate 1' is a round shaft, a cylindrical cam receiver 16 is fixed to the lower part of the shaft, and cam receivers are attached to both sides of the cam receiver. The cylindrical cam body 18 has a corrugated cam surface 18' on its lower surface, a main shaft insertion hole 19 is bored in the central shaft part, and is attached to the main shaft so as to be rotatable. The surface and the chain portion are used as a pressurizing portion 20. In order to restrict the rotation of the cam body, a guide rod 22 with a long guide hole 21 is provided on both sides of the top surface of the board.
The tips of the protrusions 23 that protrude horizontally from both sides of the cam body are inserted into the elongated holes.

As mentioned above, in the previous example, the cam receiver is fixed and the cam body rotates and moves forward, but when pressurizing, the pressurizing body does not rotate and only moves forward, and on the rear side, the cam receiver is rotated and the cam body and pressure are applied. The aim is to solve problems by ensuring that the division only moves forward.

(Operation of the present invention) To describe the operation of the present invention with reference to an example, when the pressurizing body 11 is brought into contact with the treatment area of the human body and the main shaft 2 is rotated, the cam receiver 3
The cam body 5 moves forward while rotating along the cam receiving part 4, but the pressurizing body 11 rotatably attached to the upper end moves forward without rotating and pressurizes a local area.

Since this pressure body has an arcuate surface 12 at its tip, it is similar to pressing a pressure point with a fingertip. The pressurizing body 11 that has advanced a certain distance (cam (surface height)) is easily repelled by the elasticity of the skin on the suppressing surface, returns to its original position, and moves forward again to pressurize the acupuncture points.

Next, to explain the operation of another example, the rotation of the main shaft 1' causes the cam receiver 16 to rotate at the same time, and the rotation is caused by the protrusion 23 and the guide rod 2.
The cam body 18 regulated by
It moves forward along the height of the cam surface. Since the cam body is formed as a pressing portion 20 having an arcuate upper end, the chain portion applies finger pressure and repeats this movement as described above.

(Embodiment of the present invention) An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, 1 is a substrate, 2 is a main shaft passing through the chain plate, and is formed into a square shaft. Reference numeral 3 denotes a cylindrical cam receiver with cam receivers 4 provided on both sides, which is fixed to the upper surface of the substrate at the lower stage of the main shaft. Reference numeral 5 denotes a cylindrical cam body with a reduced diameter at the upper end, and a shaft insertion hole 6 with an angular cross section that engages with the main shaft and can freely slide is bored in the central shaft part, and the upper end part 7 of the part and the above A flange 8 attached to the tip of the main shaft engages to prevent the cam body from detaching, and a wavy cam surface 9 is formed at the lower end.
A circumferential groove 10 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the small diameter upper end opening of the cam body. Reference numeral 11 denotes a pressurizing body, which is formed into a spherical shape and has an arcuate surface 12 at its tip as a pressurizing surface, and a lower end opening 13 of the pressurizing body is rotatably fitted into an opening with a small diameter at the upper end of the cam body; The tip of a screw 14 screwed onto the lower side of the outer periphery of the pressurizing body is engaged with the circumferential groove 10 to prevent it from coming off. Note that the pressurizing body may be cylindrical as long as the tip thereof has an arcuate surface. The main shaft is rotated by an electric motor M.

As shown in FIG. 2, the acupressure device having the above configuration is installed on both sides of the base plate 1, and has an ohm gear 24 at the rear end of each main shaft 2.
are fixed, each gear is engaged with the ohm screw 25, and the screw is rotated by the electric motor M. Then, the guide column 26
By moving it up and down along the , you can apply acupressure to both sides of the back vertebrae.

Next, referring to FIG. 3, another embodiment will be described. The main shaft 15 that extends through the substrate 1' is a round shaft, and a cylindrical cam receiver 16 has cam receivers 17 formed on both sides of the lower stage of the shaft. The cylindrical cam body 18 has a cam surface 18' formed on its lower surface, an insertion hole 19 for the main shaft is bored in the central shaft portion, the cam body is rotatably mounted, and the tip of the cam body is formed into an arc. The chain portion is used as a pressurizing portion 20 as a surface. In order to regulate the rotation of the cam body, guide rods 22 with long guide holes 21 are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the board, and protrusions 23 are provided that protrude horizontally from the outer peripheral surfaces of both sides of the cam body.
engage the tip with the elongated hole.

(Effect) Since the acupressure device according to the present invention has the above configuration, it is housed in a case (not shown) and the pressure surface 1 at the tip of the pressure body 11 is
When the pressurizing part 20 of the cam body 18 is brought into contact with the affected area and the main shaft is rotated, both move linearly forward, so that various affected areas of the human body can be treated with acupressure. Therefore, it has a much more therapeutic effect than conventional pine surgery machines.
