Description

Body Acupressure Apparatus}

The present invention relates to a body acupressure device that acupressure a part of a person's body.

Recently, modern people are suffering from abdominal obesity, adult diseases, and chronic constipation due to irregular eating habits and instant food consumption due to excessive work. Moreover, abdominal obesity, adult diseases, and chronic constipation tend to increase day by day due to lack of regular exercise. In particular, abdominal obesity and chronic constipation are the greatest concerns of modern people, and various devices are being developed to maintain a healthy abdominal condition.

Among these devices is the body acupressure device. The body acupressure device aims to promote health and recover from fatigue by activating bowel activity and improving blood circulation through the act of massaging the abdomen, which is a part of the body, or warming the abdomen. In recent years, as people's interest in abdominal health increases, the demand for body acupressure devices is also gradually increasing.

Here, since the physical acupressure device according to the prior art has a constant intensity of acupressure and is simply repeated, it has to be dull to the same simple repeated stimulation after several uses. Therefore, the body acupressure device according to the prior art has a problem that the effect on acupressure is lowered.

The present invention is conceived to solve the above-described problems, and relates to a body acupressure device capable of reducing the degree to which the effect of acupressure is reduced even after repeated use.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention may include the following configuration.

The body acupressure device according to the present invention includes a cam portion that rotates in a first direction that is a direction corresponding to a direction of movement of a person's bowel, a driving portion for rotating the cam portion, a body portion accommodating the driving portion and the cam portion, and an abdomen. As the cam unit rotates for acupressure, the cam unit moves between an advance position spaced apart from the inner surface of the main body by an advance distance and a retreat position spaced apart from the inner surface of the body unit by a shorter retraction distance than the advance distance. A plurality of acupressure pins coupled to, and a cover portion coupled to the body portion to cover the cam portion may be included. The driving unit may rotate the cam unit along the first direction so that the acupressure pins move sequentially to the forward position.

According to the present invention, the following effects can be achieved.

The present invention may contribute to improving symptoms such as abdominal obesity and chronic constipation by being implemented to improve the effect on abdominal acupressure.
