Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a pneumatic pine surge sheet.

Pneumatic pine surge machines that use compressed air are known, but the pine surge sheets used in pneumatic pine surge machines that perform pneumatic pine surges while supine or prone are expanded and contracted by supplying and discharging compressed air. The central part of the air-filled bag swells more than the peripheral part and becomes round as a whole, which has the disadvantage of making the body less stable.
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 19, this method has the disadvantage that the central line of the body, that is, the spinal column and spinal cord, are excessively compressed, which actually impairs the pine surge effect. In addition, because the central part bulges out greatly, sufficient air pressure is not applied to areas that require pine surge, such as both sides of the spinal column where there are many acupuncture points, making it difficult to obtain an appropriate pine surge effect. However, the reality was that the effect was simply that of stretching the waist.

In view of the fact that the pine surge sheets used in pneumatic pine surge devices that have already been developed have the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention has been developed to eliminate these inconveniences and to protect the legs, feet, waist, back, neck, and This relates to a pneumatic pine surge sheet that was developed with the aim of providing an extremely soft and accurate pine surge effect over almost the entire body, including the abdomen and chest. An explanation will be given based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a first example of a sheet 1 according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal cross-sectional view of the sheet 1 taken along line A-A in FIG. As is clear from the above, two sheets of elastic airtight material 4,
4 and outer covering materials 5 and 5 having flexibility but no or slight extensibility are combined into a bag shape to form an airtight flat bag, and the airtight flat bag is As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, four independent rectangular air-filled bags 1a, 1b,
1c and 1d, and in this example, the second
The air-filled bag 1b is the largest, followed by the third air-filled bag 1c, and each of the first and fourth air-filled bags 1
The two bags a and 1d are formed to be slightly smaller than the third air-filled bag 1c.

6 is an airtight seal that defines the air-filled bags 1a to 1d, and 7 is a plate-shaped partition provided inside the bags 1a to 1d in the short side direction near the center of the bags 1a to 1d in the long side direction. , this partition body 7 partially forms a flow path 8 for compressed air, and the same bag 1a
This is provided in order to keep the height near the center portion constant in the short side direction regardless of the degree of filling of compressed air into ~1d.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, each air-filled bag 1a to 1
d, partitions 7 each having two compressed air flow paths 8 are provided, and the air-filled bags 1a to
When 1d is filled with compressed air, the height near the center in the long side direction does not change in the short side direction compared to before filling with compressed air, and the left and right sides of it expand greatly ( (See Figure 18).

FIGS. 3 and 4 are longitudinal cross-sectional views showing the compressed air supply/exhaust ports 9 and the air supply ports 10, which are horizontally protruding from the side surfaces of the air-filled bags 1a to 1d, respectively, and the air supply ports 10 are With a check valve 11 provided only on the second air-filled bag 1b having the largest volume, the air-filled bag 1
In b, compressed air first enters from the air supply port 10, then compressed air enters from the supply/exhaust port 9, and while air is being supplied to the supply/exhaust port 9, it is not exhausted from the air supply port 10 side. There is.

FIG. 5 shows five air-filled bags 1a to 1e defined by airtight seals 6, and each air-filled bag 1a.
This is a second example of the seat 1 in which all the widths of ~1e are the same, and in this case, only the supply/exhaust port 9 without the check valve 11 is provided to protrude laterally as in the first example.

FIG. 6 shows a third example in which a plurality of eyelets 12 are formed at both ends of the sheet 1 in the length direction of the first example.
If a connecting piece other than the string 13 is used, it goes without saying that it is preferable to use a connection piece that does not cause pain even when it hits the body. One example of this is a velvet fastener in which countless rigid hooks and ring piles form a pair, and when such a fastener is used, reinforcement such as the eyelet 12 is not required.

In addition, in FIG. 8, buttonholes 14 are formed at both longitudinal ends of the seat 1 of the first example so that it can be attached to the seat or back of a chair. This is a fourth example in which fixation is possible using a stretchable tape, band, or string (none of which are shown) to which a button is attached. Of course, in this case as well, a velvet type fastener can be used to allow attachment and detachment to and from the chair.

FIGS. 9A, B, and C show other examples of the shape of the partition body 7. FIG. 9A shows a case where two partition bodies 7 are provided in the short side direction to form an air flow path 8. FIGS. 9B and 9C show a case where an air flow passage 8 consisting of a circular or rectangular through hole is formed in the partition 7. FIG.

Next, FIGS. 10 and 11 show that the air-filled bags 1a to 1d are formed in a rectangular shape,
This figure shows the sheet 1 formed into a chevron shape and an arc shape, respectively, and it is important to know whether the sizes of the air-filled bags 1a to 1d are the same or different, and what kind of structure the partition body 7 in the center part should have. It may be determined as appropriate whether to do so or not, and of course, the air supply/exhaust port 9 and the air supply port 10 are formed in the same manner as required.

Figure 12 shows the rectangular air-filled bag 1a shown in Figure 1.
~1d and the chevron-shaped air-filled bag 1a shown in Figure 10~
In the fifth example, 1d are stacked one on top of the other, and the outsides are integrally covered with outer cover materials 5, 5, so that compressed air is simultaneously supplied to irregularly shaped air-filled bags in the same order that partially overlap above and below. It's getting old. Figure 13 also shows an example in which two air-filled bags with different shapes are stacked, and the arc-shaped air-filled bags 1a to 1d shown in Figure 11 are stacked on top of a rectangular air-filled bag. It is something. Therefore, when compressed air is supplied to and discharged from the sheet 1 shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, extremely complicated expansion and contraction occur repeatedly.

Although the sheet 1 is formed by integrally forming the constituent materials 4 and 5 with an airtight seal 6, it is possible to form an airtight flat bag body using the stretchable airtight materials 4 and 4 in advance, and to attach a plurality of air-filled bags. The formed bag may be covered with a flat outer bag made of the outer cover materials 5, 5.

In addition, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 6, and 8, the interior of the sheet 1 is filled with four air-filled bags 1.
As shown in Fig. 14, the compressed air supply source 2 is
This is due to the adoption of the distribution method, which allows for five or six distributions as shown in Figure 5, depending on the number of air distributions.
The number can be increased to seven, or even if a four-distribution type air supply source 2 is used, two sheets 1 can be connected and used as shown in FIG.

The compressed air supply source 2 shown in FIG. 14 is a compressor that generates compressed air (for example, an electromagnetic reciprocating type that generates compressed air by reciprocating a piston through repeated excitation and demagnetization of an electromagnet).
It is also equipped with a distributor, flow regulator, timer, etc. The supply/exhaust tubes 3 that connect the compressed air supply source 2 and the seat 1 are four tubes 3a, 3b, 3b, and 3b, each of which independently supplies and discharges compressed air to the air-filled bags 1a to 1d of the seat 1. 3
c, 3d are partially bundled, and the base side is provided with a plug 21 that fits into the socket of the air supply source 2, and the tip side is provided with a side part of each air-filled bag 1a to 1d of the mat 1. A removable plug 22 is provided in the air supply/exhaust port 9 and the air supply port 10 provided in the air supply/exhaust port 9 and the air supply port 10, respectively.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained using the above embodiment.

For example, pine surge sheet 1 shown in FIG.
using air-filled bags 1a, 1b, 1c of sheet 1.
As shown in FIG. 14, air supply/exhaust tubes 3a, 3b, 3c,
Insert the 3d tip plug 22 and connect the air supply source 2.
The base plug 21 of the supply/exhaust tube 3 is fitted into the socket.

Next, if you lie down so that your lumbar vertebrae are on top of the second air-filled bag 1b of the pine surge sheet 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 14, as shown in FIG. The buttocks rest on the third air-filled bag 1.
Your back will now rest on c.

When the preparation for pine surge is completed as described above, the air supply source 2 is turned on. When the power is turned on to the air supply source 2, air is first supplied from the supply/exhaust tube 3a to the first air-filled bag 1a of the seat 1, and the bag 1a is gradually inflated. Apply pressure from below to stimulate.

When the air supply source 2 is powered on, the compressed air distributor also operates at the same time, so the compressed air passes through the supply/exhaust tube 3b, the air supply port 10 equipped with the check valve 11, and then flows into the second air-filled bag 1b. to go into. On the other hand, the first
The air in the air-filled bag 1a is gradually exhausted from the air supply/exhaust tube 3a. The compressed air then passes through the supply/exhaust tube 3c, the supply/exhaust port 9, and enters the same second air-filled bag 1b. The second air-filled bag 1b is the first air-filled bag 1b.
As is clear from FIG. 14, the area is larger than the first and third air-filled bags 1a and 1c, and
Since there is a check valve 11 in the air supply port 10 where air is not supplied, the air supplied from the air supply port 10 remains in the second air-filled bag 1b without being exhausted. It additionally receives the compressed air sent through 9, expands to a larger size than the first air-filled bag 1a, and compresses the area around the lumbar vertebrae from below.

In this way, the lumbar vertebrae protrude into the lumbar plane as shown in Figures 18 and 19, and when the lumbar region is compressed with a conventional pneumatic pine surge sheet, the lumbar vertebrae
As shown in Figure 19, the seat strongly compresses the lumbar vertebrae and causes the lumbar vertebrae to curve unnecessarily.However, in this invention, the following actions occur, so the lumbar vertebrae are unnecessarily compressed. It cannot be bent or curved.

That is, the sheet 1 of the present invention is an air-filled bag 1.
A, 1b, 1c, and 1d are provided with a partition 7 in the short side direction inside the bag near the center in the long side direction, and a compressed air flow path 8 is partially formed in this partition 7. The inside of the bag on both sides of the bag 7 is filled with compressed air, and regardless of the degree of filling with compressed air, the height near the center part is kept constant in the short side direction, and both sides near the center part are filled with compressed air. Since it is configured to expand as shown in the figure, when compressed air is fed into the first and second air-filled bags 1a and 1b as described above, the expansion around the center is controlled by the partition 7. As shown in Figure 18, it is smaller than both sides of the vertebrae, and does not put any pressure on the caudal vertebrae, sacral vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, or thoracic vertebrae (vertebrae). It presses the body at right angles from the diagonal directions shown by the arrows in Figure 18, centering on the many acupuncture points (acupressure points) that exist, and applies air pressure extremely effectively to the acupuncture points and their surroundings, and is comparable to acupressure. Gives a pine surge effect.

Since countless nerve roots branch out around the spinal cord, and nerves and blood vessels are concentrated, applying air pressure as described above improves blood circulation and softens muscles. , nerve function is harmonized, and fatigue is easily eliminated.

The lower back is said to be the key point of the body, and fatigue tends to accumulate in various parts of the body.However, according to the present invention, the above-mentioned effects are performed, so the spine is stretched without strain, centering on the lower back, and can relieve sciatica, for example. It works to eliminate the causes of lower back pain such as herniated discs and herniated discs.

Now, when the supply of air to the second air-filled bag 1b is finished, the supply of air to the third air-filled bag 1c is started, and on the other hand, when the exhaust from the second air-filled bag 1b is started, the third air-filled bag 1c is started. As the air-filled bag 1c expands, the back resting on the bag is similarly compressed diagonally from below, centering around the thoracic vertebrae.

Below, when the air supply to the third air-filled bag 1c is finished,
Next, air supply to the first air-filled bag 1a is started,
Next, the second and third air-filled bags 1b and 1c are connected again.
Repeatedly supply and exhaust compressed air to the buttocks, lower back,
Repeat the pine surge on the back.

Next, in the seat 1 shown in FIG. 1, when air is not supplied from the air supply port 10 equipped with the check valve 11, the supply/exhaust tube 3a remains in the first air-filled bag 1a.
The other air supply/exhaust tubes 3b, 3c, and 3d are connected to the second, third, and fourth air-filled bags 1b, 1c, and 1d.
Connect the bag to the air supply/exhaust port 9 of each bag in this order and perform air supply/exhaust in the same manner.

However, since the second air-filled bag 1b of the sheet 1 shown in FIG. The second part of the body that should not be given
Care should be taken to place it on top of the air-filled bag 1b. In this case, the only consideration required is to move the sheet 1 in the vertical direction or to switch the sheet 1 upside down. Further, the amount of air supplied to the air-filled bags 1a to 1d is adjusted by the flow rate adjustment valve of the air supply source 2,
The pine surge time is set by changing the set time of the timer.

Next, a method of performing pine surgery on the neck using the pneumatic pine surgery sheet 1 of the present invention will be explained using the sheet 1 shown in FIG. 1 with reference to FIG. 20.

When the user places the neck on the second air-filled bag 1b of the seat 1, the head on the first air-filled bag 1a, and the back on the third and fourth air-filled bags 1c and 1d, and starts the air supply 2, the massage begins from the head as the first air-filled bag 1a inflates. When the first air-filled bag 1a inflates, the mat 1 wraps around the head from both sides, applying pressure from both sides of the median line.

Next, when air is supplied to the second air-filled bag 1b, the second
As shown in Figure 0, the seat 1 presses the neck from both left and right sides and at the same time pushes the head slightly upwards. That is, when the sheet 1 is inflated by supplying air to the second air-filled bag 1b, the sheet 1 presses acupuncture points such as the celestial column and the wind pond from both the left and right sides of the cervical vertebrae without unnecessarily compressing the cervical vertebrae. In this process, as the seat 1 expands, the neck resting on the second air-filled bag 1b is compressed near the wind flap, so the head is lifted, and at this time the cervical vertebrae are stretched.
The cervical vertebrae are constantly bearing the weight of the head, making it easy for dirty blood to collect inside the head. Therefore, when the cervical vertebrae are stretched lightly as described above, the blood vessels around them open and the blood circulation of the carotid arteries is improved. Improve your mind and relieve the heaviness in your head.

Furthermore, when air is supplied to the third air-filled bag 1c, it presses on acupuncture points on both sides of the thoracic vertebrae, such as Wind Gate, Lung Yu, Shin Yu, and Chufu, which is particularly effective when catching a cold.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, the partition body 7 that partially forms the compressed air flow path 8 is made of a plate-like member. A partition body 7 made of a pipe material is provided inside near the center of all or part of 1a to 1d, facing toward the short side, so that a compressed air flow path 8 is formed by the through hole of the pipe material. You can also do it.

The present invention has been explained above based on several examples, but the pneumatic pine surge sheet according to the present invention is as follows:
One or more air-filled bags or an appropriate number of air-filled bags are arranged in parallel in the short side direction, and inside all or some of the air-filled bags near the center of the long side direction of the air-filled bags,
A partition body is provided which partially forms a flow path for compressed air and keeps the height near the center portion constant in the short side direction regardless of the degree of filling of the air-filled bag with compressed air. Since the air-filled bag is provided with compressed air supply and exhaust ports at appropriate locations, the expansion of the air-filled bag near the center of the air-filled bag provided with the partition is smaller in the short side direction than at both sides. If there is only one air-filled bag, it can be used as a pillow for cervical pine surgery or as a pillow for lumbar pine surgery, and if there are multiple bags, it can effectively perform pine surgery over a wide area of the body. The body's spinal column does not press unduly on protruding parts such as the lumbar vertebrae, and for example, acupuncture points scattered on both the left and right sides of the spine can be effectively massaged from a perpendicular direction. Depending on the selection of , either a centripetal (toward the heart) wave pine surge effect or a centrifugal (towards the distal direction) wave pine surge effect can be obtained.

In addition, the pneumatic pine surge sheet of the present invention can be used in supine and prone positions, allowing it to be used on both sides of the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, including the ketsuinyu, xinyu, kidneyyu, and large intestine, which control blood circulation. It stimulates the acupuncture points around the cervical vertebrae such as the celestial pillar, wind pond, etc., and at the same time stimulates the many acupuncture points around these acupuncture points to relieve sensitivity to cold, stiff shoulders, insomnia, headaches, and irritability. It is effective in eliminating problems such as heaviness in the stomach, bloating, and many other symptoms.
