Description

Cervical vertebrae massage device {Apparatus for cervical vertebra massage}

The present invention relates to a cervical spine massage device.

Recently, one of the diseases that occur frequently in modern people is back pain caused by a disc, shoulder pain caused by excessive movement of shoulders and arms, and muscle pain (筋肉痛).

These back pain, shoulder pain, and muscle pain are common among people who work in the same posture for a long time, and they are becoming more serious as modern people lack exercise and spend more time sitting.

In particular, in the case of office workers or students who sit for a long time, the number of people suffering from spinal diseases is rapidly increasing. will be.

On the other hand, the spine is composed of a vertebral body, which is the central body, an arch-shaped vertebra protruding from the back upwards, and several processes.孔) is formed.

Spinal diseases occur due to maintaining incorrect posture for a long time or due to muscle aging and strong external shocks. The cause can be found in lifestyle habits such as sleeping posture.

In the case of children and adolescents in the growing stage, when there is an abnormality in the spine, the growth line is under pressure, and accordingly, the secretion of growth hormone is not smooth, which leads to a problem of inhibiting growth promotion.

Conventional treatment for low back pain or shoulder pain is widely used to treat or alleviate pathological conditions through physical therapy to strengthen muscles or to facilitate blood circulation by stimulating acupuncture points. It is desirable to correct the body shape correctly by relaxing the intervertebral disc, which was pressed by making the gap between the vertebrae widen.

In other words, acupressure or massage is a kind of manual procedure that uses the hands to give mechanical stimulation to the human body in a certain way to cause a biological reaction to correct the body's modulation (變調) to cure diseases and improve health.施術) is

Acupressure/massage promotes circulation of blood or lymph, boosts metabolism, improves tissue nutrition, excretes waste, and enhances resistance. This tactile stimulation (觸壓刺戟) stimulates nerves and acts as an analgesic, so it promotes the recovery of paralyzed nerves and has the effect of correcting the modulation of internal functions.

In particular, in recent years, as the usage time of smartphones increases regardless of gender and age, more and more people are suffering from cervical vertebrae, the part between the skull and the thoracic vertebrae, which is a part of the spine.

That is, the cervical vertebrae are generally referred to as the cervical vertebrae among the vertebrae of our body, and are composed of 7 vertebrae segments, and the transverse process of each cervical vertebra has a hole through which the cervical artery passes, and veins and brachial plexus are located around it. , it can be said that it is an important part of the body that is connected to the body below and to the head above.

The cervical spine, like the thoracic and lumbar spine, is greatly affected by the posture of the person, and there are various musculoskeletal disorders caused by this. As an example, the same cervical disc herniation as other vertebral discs may occur, sprains occur in the ligaments supporting the cervical vertebrae from the back, and the cervical vertebrae muscles are also stiff due to various causes, compressing the nerves, resulting in a headache. Various musculoskeletal disorders such as neck pain and shoulder pain can occur.

On the other hand, the suboccipital muscle is a region composed of a total of 8 muscles on both sides of the four muscles located between one cervical vertebra and the occipital bone. ) is widely distributed and is adjacent to the vertebral artery, so it is a muscle closely related to brain and blood pressure disorders. The suboccipital muscle connects the occipital bone with the first and second cervical vertebrae and is closely related thereto. If stenosis occurs in the suboccipital triangle surrounding the vertebral artery among the suboccipital muscles, the nerve is compressed, the blood supply to the brain is disturbed, and the function of the muscle spindle may be reduced.

In addition, when the suboccipital muscle becomes stiff, it can cause cervical headache in which the pain range extends from the occipital bone to the eye and forehead in one direction. Among the suboccipital muscles, the rectus small laryngeal muscle is an important muscle structure that holds the spinal cord to be located at the center. When expressed, it can create mechanical tension in the denticulate ligament and cause deformation of the dura mater surrounding the spinal nerve.

In general, for the treatment of back pain or shoulder pain, methods for treating or alleviating pathological conditions are widely practiced, such as physical therapy that strengthens muscles or stimulation of acupuncture points to facilitate blood circulation. In this case, it is desirable to correct the body shape correctly by relaxing the intervertebral disc, which was pressed by making the gap between the vertebrae wider.

In other words, acupressure or massage is a kind of manual procedure that corrects the body's alterations to cure diseases and promote health by giving a mechanical stimulus directly to the human body in a certain way using the hands.手技施術), promotes the circulation of blood or lymph by acupressure and massage, activates metabolism, increases tissue nutrition, excretes waste, and enhances resistance. This tactile stimulation (觸壓刺戟) stimulates nerves and acts as an analgesic, so it promotes the recovery of paralyzed nerves and has the effect of correcting the modulation of internal functions.

However, since most of these acupressure/massage treatments cannot be performed by the person receiving the treatment alone, there is a problem in that the effect is not constant because it is carried out depending on the power of the person as well as the inconvenience of receiving the type of help.

In order to improve these problems, various types of acupressure massagers that can receive acupressure and massage by themselves have been developed and used in the prior art. is accomplishing

In the case of a vibrating massager, it is a method of repeatedly hitting (tapping) a part of the body, so it has a disadvantage in that it not only has a low acupressure effect, but also causes secondary pain caused by the blow.

In addition, in order to properly transmit the vibration of the acupressure tool to the body, it is necessary to press the acupressure tool with a certain force on the body part.

In addition, in the case of a pneumatic massager, the pressure is repeatedly applied to a part of the body by injecting and discharging air into and out of the cuff intended to cover the body part, such as an arm, leg, or waist. It is difficult to expect acupressure effects such as stimulating acupuncture points because it is only a massage for the body, and it is cumbersome to use because it has to be worn on the arm, leg, or waist of the body.

Among these pneumatic massagers, there is a treatment device equipped with a belt-type cuff that is provided to expand up and down and to act as a traction force by the action of pneumatic, but it is also inconvenient to use because it must be worn on the neck or waist Not only was it difficult to respond quickly, but there was a disadvantage in that the treatment effect was low because sufficient traction effect could not be obtained.

In particular, as a prior art to improve the flow of cerebrospinal fluid by compressing the suboccipital muscle or its surrounding while relaxing the cervical spine, a functional cervical pillow has been proposed through Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1665115 (20161012), Specifically, when lying down, the cervical vertebrae are maintained in a C-shape, and cervical vertebrae 1 is applied to relieve tension and pain in the neck muscles. A technology related to a functional cervical pillow is described.

As another prior art, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1077885 (20111031) discloses a main body placed horizontally on the floor; The occipital bone acupressure part is formed protruding from one side of the body to support the occipital bone; The lower laryngeal support portion is formed to protrude higher than the laryngeal acupressure portion in the front position of the occipital bone acupressure portion of the main body to support the lower larynx; and an upper thoracic vertebrae acupressure part protruding from the position in front of the lower occipital support part of the main body so as not to push the main body while supporting the back neck, and to press the upper thoracic vertebrae. The technique is described.

The one end 371 is rotatably wrapped around the first lower support part 161 and the first upper support part 151 , and the other end 372 is rotated on the second lower support part 162 and the second upper support part 152 . wrapped around possible

The head cover 310 is supported on the tilting shaft 370 through the head cover supporter 360 , and may be tilted at a predetermined angle around the tilting shaft 370 . The tilting shaft 370 is disposed in front of the head supporter 350 and disposed behind the neck insertion part 340 .

In this embodiment, the headrest module 300 is tilted in the front-rear direction by the user's head load. Specifically, the head supporter 350 is rotated downward at a predetermined angle by the load applied by the user's back head to the head supporter 350, and the first and second neck supporters 320 and 330 are predetermined upward. angle is rotated

A direction in which the head supporter 350 descends and the first neck supporter 320 and the second neck supporter 330 rise is defined as the first tilting direction, and the head supporter 350 rises and the first neck supporter 320 is raised. ) and a direction in which the second neck supporter 330 descends is defined as a second tilting direction.

When the user mounts the head on the head cover 310, the headrest module 300 is tilted in the first tilting direction by the weight of the head, thereby providing an operation for increasing the user's cervical vertebrae.

The user may operate at least one of the first front heater 401 , the second front heater 402 , the first rear heater 403 , and the second rear heater 404 through button manipulation.

When the first front heater 401 and the second front heater 402 are operated, heat is provided to the user's shoulder, thereby relaxing the stiff shoulder muscles.

In addition, when the first rear heater 403 and the second rear heater 404 are operated, heat is provided to the user's neck, thereby relaxing the cramped neck muscles.

In addition, when the EMS module 500 is operated, low-frequency electrical stimulation is provided to the first low-frequency pad 510 and the second low-frequency pad 520 to more quickly relax the muscles of the user's neck. .

On the other hand, when the pressing module 200 is operated, a change in the height of the user's shoulder or back may occur, and when the height of the shoulder or back is changed, a change may be induced in the load supported by the head.

In this embodiment, a virtual tangent line (P) connecting the front outer end 320a of the first and second neck supporters 320 and 330 and the front outer end 140a of the front upper case 140 . Based on the first acupressure ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 may be moved in the vertical direction.

When the pressure module 200 is not operated, the first acupressure ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 are located below the tangent line P, and when the pressure module 200 is operated, the first acupressure ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 are located below the tangent line P. The upper end of the ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 may be positioned to protrude upward from the tangent line (P).

When the first acupressure ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 are moved to the upper side of the tangent line P, the user's upper body can be lifted upward, and the load applied to the user's head can be increased. . At this time, the headrest module 300 may be tilted in the first tilting direction.

Conversely, when the raised first acupressure ball 201 and the second acupressure ball 202 are moved to the lower side of the tangent line p, the user's upper body can be moved to the original state, and the load applied to the user's head can be reduced. can At this time, the headrest module 300 may be tilted in the second tilting direction.

In this way, the head race module 300 is tilted at a predetermined angle in the first tilting direction or the second tilting direction according to the height of the user's shoulder or back, thereby stably supporting the user's neck.

When the headrest module 300 is not tilted, the load may be concentrated on the user's neck, which may cause stiffness in the process of relaxing or contracting the neck muscles.

On the other hand, by operating the pressure actuator 380, the head cover 310 can be artificially tilted in the first tilting direction or the second tilting direction.

The user can selectively turn on/off the headrest module 300, and when the headrest module 300 is turned on, the pressurizing actuator 380 is operated at a predetermined time period to make a stroke in the vertical direction. and, through this, the head cover 310 may reciprocate at a predetermined angle.
