Eye massager {Massage apparatus for eyes}

The present invention relates to a massager for stimulating and relaxing the eye area for massaging, and more specifically, to an eye massager having a detachable massage function capable of acupressure around the eye and being foldable to be stored in a narrow space.

In general, the eyes do a lot of exercise inside the eyeball to secure the field of view necessary for human body activities and obtain accurate information, and fatigue easily accumulates in working or playing games using a computer or smartphone because the screen is viewed for a long time.

As a way to relieve eye fatigue, there are ways to make your eyes rest by closing your eyes for a while or sleeping, or by switching to a natural movement or exercise state, such as taking a walk, and rubbing your hands to deliver warm warmth to your eyes. There is a method of simply massaging the eye, and there is a method of massaging the eye with an eye massager.

Modern people lead very busy lives, and more and more people are using eye massagers as a way to relieve eye fatigue. The eye massager relaxes the muscles around the eyes or improves blood circulation through heat or stimulation to relieve eye fatigue.

As an example of an eye massager, there are Patent Registration No. 1586684 (Prior Document 1) and Patent Registration No. 2034386 (Prior Document 2).

In Prior Document 1, it is possible to relieve eye fatigue by massaging the area around the eyes and the temples, and by supplying heat to the eyeball, it stimulates the oil glands of the eye to help form the oil layer of the eye to prevent evaporation of tears, By using an eye patch made of natural cotton fibers (soaked in water) that generate far-infrared rays, it supplies sufficient moisture to the eyeball, induces antibacterial action and smooth blood circulation, and sets the heat supply and massage time according to the condition of the eye. An eye massage device that can be used is disclosed.

In Prior Document 2, a massage pad through which compressed air flows in and out to massage the eyeball, and acupressure protrusions connected to and configured from the massage pad are used, and acupuncture points around the eyes (Jeongmyeonghyeol, Chanchan), which are good for dry eye syndrome, are used. An eye massage device using compressed air and acupressure projections that can acupressure by inflating a massage pad with inflow of compressed air according to the position of the acupuncture point to acupressure the bamboo blood and solar blood) and using acupressure projections made of jade has been disclosed. there is.

The eye massage device of Prior Document 1 has the advantage of stimulating the area around the eyes with heat and supplying moisture to the eyes, but it is insufficient to stimulate the muscles or blood vessels around the eyes by direct mechanical stimulation to sufficiently massage the area around the eyes. There were difficult aspects.

The eye massage device of Prior Document 2 is attached to a massage pad formed with a space into which air is injected and moves by acupressure protrusions to prevent dry eye syndrome and directly acupressure to Jeongmyeonghyeol, Chanjukhyeol, and Taeyanghyul, which are acupoints that can be acupressure. It is focused on massage to prevent dry eye syndrome for the user, and is not suitable for use as a massage to relieve overall eye fatigue.
