Description

Medical Pressing Device for human Spine

The present invention relates to a physiotherapeutic device that stimulates the human spinal acupoints to strengthen the body's immune function as well as to prevent and cure various pain and adult diseases. The present invention relates to a physiotherapeutic device, preferably a bed type physiotherapy device, which is capable of anticipating a complex therapeutic effect by moxibustion and heat together with an effect.

Unlike other mammals, humans are not only ecologically vulnerable to fatigue, which is relatively easy to cause fatigue due to the large load on the spine due to the body structure living in an upright state. Accumulation is not solved, causing a variety of adult diseases or often complain of physical pain. Moreover, in recent years, a lot of sickness and pain caused by spinal abnormalities are caused by the spine abnormality due to immersed in the computer for a long time sitting in a chair in a bad posture in a rapidly spreading Internet environment.

The central nervous system of the human body is transmitted to every part of the body through the spinal column. Therefore, around the spine, major acupuncture points related to the activities of various organs such as the heart, lungs, and stomach are scattered. Acupuncture and moxibustion for spinal menstrual blood have been widely performed along with acupuncture for the prevention of treatment of pain. Recently, various physical therapy apparatuses have been widely used or under development to target such therapeutic effects in general households.

Such physiotherapy devices are generally made of bed type so that the patient can be treated in a lying state, and there are basically acupressure devices for stimulating spinal menstrual blood, and heating means or low frequency for selectively moxibustion or heat effect. In some cases, devices that utilize the therapeutic effect of germanium may be installed.

Conventional acupressure apparatus basically mounted on such a physical therapy device is largely classified into a direct operation method and an indirect operation method.

That is, in the direct acting method, as shown in FIG. 1A, a plurality of acupressure holes 42 commonly referred to as ceramics are formed on the moving member 50 which is moved left and right by a conveying means 60 such as a conveying screw or a conveyor belt. As the movable member 50 moves left and right along the opening 12 long formed on the upper surface of the main body 10 such as a bed, the product that is being marketed in Migansa is directly pressurized by acupuncture points of the spine. It belongs to this way.

Indirect actuation method is usually 4 to 6 acupressure holes 42 on the upper surface of the band-shaped elevating member 41 extending in the longitudinal direction to the opening 12 of the bed body 10 as shown in Figure 1b Block is attached to the elevating member 41 while a plurality of protrusions are attached and the corresponding portions of the elevating member 41 connected thereto are pushed out as the movable member 50 moves left and right by the transfer means 60. Sunstone's products fall in this way as the acupressure bulb 42 in turn pushes the vertebral acupoints.

In the conventional direct and indirect operation method, the opening mechanism of the upper surface of the bed can not but be perforated in almost all or a substantial part of the operation mechanism, so that it may be covered with a thin cloth or forge to cover the aesthetic appearance.

In addition, the acupressure port 42 may be provided with a function of heating, moxibustion, or other therapeutic effects by incorporating a heating means such as a lamp or a low frequency generator.

However, the conventional acupressure apparatus has various problems as follows. That is, in the case of the direct operation method, the moving member 50 is a mechanism in which the pressing member 42, which is formed with the moving member 50 and one body, pushes the spine immediately while pushing the horizontal part from side to side. In addition, unnecessary impact on other parts of the body not only causes pain during the procedure, but also causes mechanical strain. Particularly, there is a problem in that the pressure direction acts in an inclined direction rather than vertically so that an effective acupressure effect is not achieved.

In addition, in the case of the indirect operation method, the belt-shaped lifting member 41 is indirectly pushed up by the moving member 50 horizontally moving horizontally, and the acupressure holes 42 attached thereto pressurize the acupuncture points. It may be said that there is some improvement in physical pain and mechanical overload compared to the direct method, but there is a problem in durability such as frequent induction of A / S due to the structural weakness of the band-shaped lifting member. Also in accordance with the moving direction of the moving member 50, the elevating member is pushed to the left or right to press the end pressure can not act in the vertical direction, and the acupressure region is also dispersed, there is a problem that can not effectively acupuncture points acupuncture points effectively.

Moreover, these direct and indirect pressure shiatsu devices have all or most of the openings 12 formed on the upper surface of the bed when applied to the bed type. Not only is there a safety problem, such as a risk of loss, but the top surface of the bed is unevenly exhausted due to the openings and protruding depressions, which makes it impossible to use for long periods of rest or sleeping. There was something wrong.

The present invention is to provide a chiropractic device for spinal menstrual blood pressure of a new mechanism that can maximize the pressure effect without causing mechanical strain or physical pain while the structure is simple in view of the problems of the prior art as described above. have.

In addition, the present invention provides a chiropractic device for spinal acupoints that is particularly suitable for bed type that can be lying on the bed while the secondary purpose of the present invention can be used in combination with a conventional physiotherapy device used only for a long time for rest or sleep. have.
