Description

Massage chair with foot massage function {MASSAGE CHAIR INCLUDING FOOT MASSAGING FUNCTION}

The present invention relates to a massage chair including a foot massage function for stretching and massaging a user's foot seated on a footrest by lifting it upward or downward or tilting it to the left or right.

As is well known, massage can stretch or relax a user's muscles and stimulate blood flow by applying heat, pressure, electrical stimulation, etc. to various parts of the human body.

By receiving such a massage, the user can obtain an effect of obtaining not only physical stability but also mental stability.

In particular, in the human body, the foot is a part corresponding to the periphery of the body, and not only responds sensitively to various stimuli, but also has concentrated blood corresponding to the human organ, so even if the whole body is not massaged, the foot part is massaged. If it becomes, you can get a similar effect to receiving a full body massage.

Although a method of receiving a massage can be received directly from a professional masseuse, it requires an economical cost and also, since a direct visit to a massage shop is required, there is a disadvantage in that accessibility is not good.

To compensate for these disadvantages, various types of massage chairs have been developed so that they can be easily used at home. Such a massage chair allows the user to receive the effect of massage by applying stimulation to the entire body.

However, since many types of massage chairs are mainly specialized for massaging the whole body, it is difficult to receive a professional foot massage while sitting on a massage chair.

It is a drawing illustrating the leg board of a massage chair.

1 to 4, a massage chair 10 having a foot massage function according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a chair body 110, a footrest 120, a driving member 130, and the like. .

The chair body 110 is the main body of the massage chair 10, and is provided with a general configuration of a chair such as a backrest (not shown), a seating seat (not shown), and a leg plate 113 so that the user can sit on it. can

The backrest (not shown) supports the user's back using the massage chair 10, and the seating seat (not shown) supports the buttocks of the user.

The leg plate 111 is coupled to a seat (not shown) to support the user's lower body, and in particular, the foot plate 120 is lifted or tilted by the driving member 130 as the user's calf part is in close contact. In this case, it is possible to support stretching of the user's feet.

In addition, the massage roller 112 is provided on the leg plate 111, so that the calf of the user in close contact with the leg plate 111 can be massaged. That is, by stimulating the user's calf while the massage roller 112 moves upward or downward, an effect of massaging the user's calf can be obtained.

The footrest 120 is coupled to the lower part of the chair body 110 to seat the user's feet, and serves to massage the seated user's feet.

Here, the footrest 120 may be provided to suit the length of the user's feet so that the user's feet are stably seated. That is, since each user's foot size may be different, a plurality of footrests 120 having different sizes may be provided and used according to the size of the user's foot.

In addition, the other side of the footrest 120 may be rotatably coupled to the legboard of the chair body.

That is, the footrest 120 can be lifted in the up and down directions by the driving member 130, and is tilted in the left and right directions, and is rotatably coupled to the leg plate ( ), so that the footrest ( ) has various movements. this could be possible

In addition, a low frequency generating member 122 is formed on the footrest surface 121 on which the user's feet are seated, and the user's feet can be massaged by generating low frequencies.

Various parts of the body can generate weak electricity, and this electricity, that is, bioelectricity, reacts sensitively to electrical stimulation given from the outside and can cause various changes.

Low frequency can be used to reduce pain or release paralyzed areas by contracting or relaxing nerves or muscles by sending low-frequency pulses of 500 Hz or less to the human body using the characteristics of bioelectricity.

The user's soles can be treated using these low frequencies. In the human body, the soles of the feet are not only more sensitive to external stimuli than other body parts, but also have blood points that can stimulate the organs of the human body in the soles of the feet. Continuous massage can be effective in restoring the user's health.

In addition, a fixing member 123 may be provided so that the user's foot is in close contact with the footrest 120 so that the user's foot is fixed.

Here, the fixing member 123 may be formed in a belt shape or the like so that the user's feet can be fixed while surrounding the user's feet. That is, when the user's foot is seated on the footrest 120, the fixing member 123 may close the user's foot to the footrest 120 while wrapping the user's foot.

In addition, as air pressure is introduced into the fixing member 123 and the volume of the fixing member 123 increases, pressure is applied to the user's feet, so that the user's feet can be brought into closer contact with the footrest 120.

Meanwhile, a sensor member 124 for recognizing the size of a user's foot may be coupled to the footrest 120.

The footrest 120 can be lifted upward or downward by the driving member 130 and can be tilted to the left or right. Since the size of each user's foot is different, the sensor member 124 is set to the size of the user's foot. It is recognized and the angle at which the scaffold 120 is lifted or tilted can be adjusted accordingly.

The driving member 130 is coupled to the scaffold 120 to move the scaffold.

Here, the driving member 130 is provided in plurality, and each driving member 130 is driven independently, so that the scaffold 120 can be moved.

For example, the driving member 130 may include a first driving member 131a, a second driving member 131b, and a third driving member 131c.

Here, the first driving member (131a) is coupled to the upper end of the scaffold 120, it is possible to move the scaffold 120 upward or downward. That is, the lower end of the footrest 120 is coupled to the leg plate 111, and when the first driving member 131a is driven, the footrest 120 moves upward or downward around the lower end coupled to the leg plate 111. can be moved to

In addition, the second driving member (131a) is coupled to the left side of the footrest 120, it can move the left side of the footrest 120 upward or downward. That is, when moving the left side of the scaffold 120 upward, the scaffold 120 may be inclined to the right, and when moving the left part of the scaffold 120 downward, the scaffold 120 may be inclined to the left. there is.

In addition, the third driving member (131c) is coupled to the right side of the footrest 120, it is possible to move the right side of the footrest 120 upward or downward. That is, when moving the right side of the footrest 120 upward, at the same time, as the second driving member 132b moves the footrest 120 downward, the footrest 120 may be inclined to the left. In addition, when moving the right side of the footrest 120 downward, at the same time, as the second driving member 132b moves the footrest 120 upward, the footrest 120 may be tilted to the right.

That is, the first driving member (131a), the second driving member (131b), the third driving member (131c), etc. can be driven independently, but each driving member 130 mutually controls the movement of the scaffold 120. It can be supplemented and driven.

As described above, by moving the footrest 120 upward, the user's calf muscles can be relaxed, and by moving the footrest 120 downward, the user's calf muscles can be contracted. Accordingly, as the footrest 120 is moved upward, downward, left, or right, the effect of contracting or relaxing the muscles of the user's feet, calves, etc. can be obtained.

In the above description, various embodiments of the present invention have been presented and described, but the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto. It will be readily apparent that branch substitutions, modifications and alterations are possible.
