5 is a view showing a massage device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The massage device 100 of FIG. 5 may further include an oxygen generating device. Various configurations included in the oxygen generating device will be described with reference to FIG. 5 . The massage device 100 includes a suction port 510 for inhaling external air. The suction port 510 may be located at the bottom of the massage device 100 . When the suction port 510 is located at the bottom of the massage device, there is an effect that can be utilized as a moving handle for moving the massage device 100 . Since a handle for moving is provided at the lower end of the existing massage device 100 , there is an effect that the suction port 510 can be provided without a major structural change in the existing massage device 100 . In addition, by using the suction port 510 as a handle for movement together with the handle portion 511 for movement, there is an effect of stably moving the massage device 100 .

However, the position of the suction port 510 is not limited to FIG. 5 . The suction port 510 may be located at the top of the massage device 100 . Dust is heavier than air, so it is often at the bottom. Therefore, by locating the suction port 510 at the upper end of the massage device 100, the concentration of dust in the suctioned air can be greatly reduced. In addition, by minimizing the distance from the inlet 510 to the oxygen outlet 540 , the length of the gas pipe is reduced, thereby reducing the cost of implementing the oxygen generating device. In addition, there is an effect that the gas can be moved with only a small pressure of the compressor.

In addition, the massage device 100 may include an air supply unit 520 for sucking external air through the suction port and moving it to the oxygen generating unit. The air supply unit 520 may include a compressor. The air supply unit 520 may suck in external air by generating a pressure by electric energy. In addition, the compressor may supply the sucked air to the oxygen generator 530 .

In addition, the massage device 100 may include an oxygen generator 530 that adsorbs nitrogen from the air provided from the air supply and discharges concentrated oxygen. The oxygen generator 530 may concentrate oxygen in various ways. In general, air contains 21% oxygen, but concentrated oxygen may contain more than 21% oxygen. The oxygen generator 530 may increase the concentration of oxygen by removing nitrogen from the air. The oxygen generator 530 may separate nitrogen from the air and discharge it separately.

In addition, the massage device 100 may include a flow path for the concentrated oxygen to move from the oxygen generating unit to the oxygen outlet. The flow pipe may be a closed pipe. Therefore, the concentrated oxygen may move from the oxygen generator 530 to the oxygen outlet 540 without changing the oxygen concentration.

In addition, the massage device 100 may include an oxygen outlet 540 for supplying the user with the concentrated oxygen that has moved through the flow pipe. The oxygen outlet 540 may be provided near the user's head so that the user can inhale.

The air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 may be located at the lower end of the massage device 100 . The downward direction may be opposite to the Z axis. As such, since the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 are located in the massage device 100 , a collision with other components of the massage device 100 can be avoided.

7 is a view schematically showing the flow of gas according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The suction port 510 may suck in external air. The outside air may be sucked in through the suction port 510 due to the pressure difference. The air supply unit 520 may provide a driving force through which external air may be sucked into the suction port 510 . The air supply unit 520 may supply external air to the oxygen generator 530 . The oxygen generator 530 may absorb nitrogen in the supplied external air. Since nitrogen is removed from the outside air, the concentration of oxygen may be relatively high. The oxygen generator 530 may generate concentrated oxygen and discharge it to the flow path. Concentrated oxygen moving through the flow path may be inhaled by the user.

8 is a view showing a suction port according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The upper figure of FIG. 8 is a view showing components included in the inlet 510 , and the lower figure of FIG. 8 is a view showing the combination of the inlet case 810 and the inlet cover 830 included in the inlet 510 .

Referring to FIG. 8 , the inlet 510 may include an inlet case 810 , a first filter 820 , and an inlet cover 830 . The suction port case 810 may be coupled to the housing of the massage device. The suction port case 810 may be used as a handle for moving the massage device 100 .

The first filter 820 may be inserted into the inlet case 810 . The first filter 820 may remove impurities in the outside air. The first filter 820 may be surrounded by a cover 821 made of an elastic material so as to be fixed to the inlet case 810 . The cover 821 may make the outer surface of the first filter 820 and the inner surface of the inlet case 810 come into close contact with each other. Therefore, the outside air can be sucked only through the filter 822 . The first filter 820 may include a filter 822 capable of removing dust. The first filter 820 may remove fine dust of 0.3 micrometers or more. As such, the first filter 820 has the effect of purifying the air in the place where the massage device 100 is located by removing the fine munch.

The inlet cover 830 may be fixed to prevent the first filter 820 from being removed from the inlet case. The inlet cover 830 may include at least one suction hole for sucking in external air. As shown in FIG. 8 , the suction hole may be formed parallel to the ground. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the suction hole may be oval or circular. Sizes of at least some of the plurality of suction holes may be different from sizes of other suction holes.

A handle 832 is formed on the inlet cover 830 so that the user can easily open the inlet cover 830 . The user can easily replace the first filter 820 by opening the inlet cover 830 .

For example, the inlet cover 830 may include a hook-shaped coupling part 831 . The coupling part 831 may be coupled to the hole of the inlet case 810 . When the inlet cover 830 is opened or closed by the coupling part 831 , the inlet cover 830 may not be separated from the inlet case 810 .

9 is a view showing a discharge port according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The discharge port 540 may include a hole through which concentrated oxygen is injected. When concentrated oxygen is injected, it is mixed with external air, and the concentration of oxygen inhaled by the user may be rapidly lowered. Therefore, it is necessary to position the discharge port 540 as close to the user's nose or mouth as possible.

The massage device 100 may automatically adjust the position of the outlet 540 . For example, the massage device 100 may measure the position of the user's shoulder before providing the massage. The massage device 100 may determine the position of the outlet 540 based on the measured position of the user's shoulder. Specifically, the massage device 100 may determine the displacement of the user's nose or mouth from the user's shoulder based on a predetermined rule. The massage device 100 may position the location of the discharge port 540 near the user's nose or mouth based on the displacement. Here, the predetermined rule may be a rule determined based on statistics of human body proportions.

However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the user may manually adjust the position of the discharge port 540 . The discharge port 540 may include a discharge pipe 920 . The upper figure of FIG. 9 shows that the discharge pipe 920 is not deployed, and the lower figure of FIG. 9 shows that the discharge pipe 920 is deployed. The discharge pipe 920 may be inserted into the housing 950 of the massage device 100 . The discharge pipe 920 may be located on the left or right side of the housing 950 of the massage device 100 . A location in which the discharge pipe 920 is inserted among the housing 950 may be a location that is less than 30 cm away from the user's head.

The discharge pipe 920 is adjustable in length and can be bent. The discharge pipe 920 may be connected to the flow pipe. The discharge pipe 920 may be a passage for the concentrated oxygen to move. The discharge pipe 920 may be about 15 cm to 30 cm. The discharge pipe 920 may be bent or extended to bring the discharge nozzle 910 close to the user's face.

The discharge port 540 may include a discharge nozzle 910 . The discharge nozzle 910 may be connected to the discharge pipe 920 . The discharge nozzle 910 may include at least one hole for discharging concentrated oxygen. The user may position the discharge nozzle 910 within 10 cm of the user's nose or mouth.

The discharge port 540 may include a discharge pipe and an oxygen breathing mask. Due to diseases caused by diving, diseases caused by viruses or diseases caused by bacteria, the user may need to inhale high-purity oxygen. Alternatively, there may be a case in which the user cannot properly inhale oxygen due to weakened lung function for health reasons. The oxygen breathing mask may seal the nose and mouth from outside air so that the user can better inhale oxygen generated by the massage device 100 . The inside of the oxygen breathing mask may be filled with oxygen supplied from the massage device 100 and the user may inhale oxygen. The oxygen breathing mask may allow the user to automatically expel the exhaled air using a mechanical or electronic device. The inside of the oxygen breathing mask can always maintain high purity oxygen.

In addition, the massage device 100 may include an outlet for filling the oxygen cylinder with high pressure instead of the outlet. The massage device 100 may store concentrated oxygen at high pressure. In addition, when the outlet of the massage device 100 is connected to the oxygen cylinder, the massage device 100 may fill the oxygen cylinder with high-pressure concentrated oxygen. Users can carry a portable oxygen cylinder and use concentrated oxygen whenever needed.

However, the configuration for discharging oxygen of various functions has been described so far, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various types or functions of the discharge port 540 may be used in the massage device 100 .

10 is a view showing an air supply unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The massage device 100 may include an air supply unit 520 . The air supply unit 520 may include an air supply unit case 1050 fixed to the main frame of the massage device. A sound insulating material using a material such as sponge or paper may be used on the inner surface of the air supply case 1050 . A compressor 1030 may be mounted in the air supply case 1050 , and the compressor 1030 may make a large noise. Accordingly, the air supply case 1050 may include a sound insulating agent so that the noise of the compressor 1030 is not transmitted to the user. The noise of the compressor 1030 felt by the user by the air supply case 1050 using the sound insulating material may be lowered to about 37 dB or less.

The air supply unit 520 may include a first damper 1060 . A portion of the first damper 1060 may be positioned between the main frame 2110 of the massage device 100 and the air supply case 1050 . A portion of the first damper 1060 may be positioned between the oxygen generator 530 main bracket and the air supply case 1050 . The air supply case 1050 may include at least one connecting leg 1051 . The first damper 1060 may be located at a lower end of the connection leg 1051 .

The first damper 1060 may prevent the vibration of the air supply unit 520 from being transmitted to the main frame 2110 . The first damper 1060 may be made of rubber, urethane, or silicone. The first damper 1060 may reduce resonance of the air supply unit 520 by the viscosity of the material itself. Also, since the first damper 1060 does not generate additional noise, not only vibration but also noise of the air supply unit 520 can be reduced.

As already described, the air supply unit 520 may include a compressor 1030 . The compressor 1030 may cause vibration, and the vibration may be transmitted to the user along the main frame 2110 . Vibration may prevent the user from receiving a comfortable massage. The first damper 1060 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user riding the main frame 2110 .

The air supply unit 520 may include a compressor 1030 for generating oxygen. The compressor 1030 is mounted inside the air supply case 1050 and may be a device for sucking in external air. The compressor 1030 may suck in external air and supply it to the oxygen generator 530 . The compressor 1030 may generate vibration, noise, and heat. Noise may be reduced by the sound insulating material included in the air supply case 1050 and the air supply cover 1020 . Vibration may be reduced by the first damper 1060 and the second damper 1040 . Heat may be lowered by the cooling fan 1010 .

The air supply unit 520 may include a second damper 1040 . The second damper 1040 may be used to couple the oxygen generating compressor 1030 and the air supply case 1050 to each other. A screw structure may be included at both ends of the second damper 1040 . One end of the second damper 1040 may be coupled to a lower end of the compressor 1030 . The other end of the second damper 1040 may be coupled to the upper end of the bottom surface of the air supply case 1050 .

Also, the second damper 1040 may prevent the vibration of the oxygen generating compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the air supply case 1050 . More specifically, the second damper 1040 may include a spring to prevent vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the air supply case 1050 . The spring coefficient of the second damper 1040 may be determined according to the excitation frequency of the compressor 1030 . The second damper may have an elastic modulus for isolating a natural vibration frequency generated by the compressor 1030 for generating oxygen.

More specifically, when the internal configuration of the compressor 1030 rotates and reciprocates, vibration occurs due to imbalance or shaking of the device, and this force is referred to as an excitation force. The magnitude of the excitation force of the rotating device is expressed as follows.

F = m*r*w^2

F: excitation force, r: eccentric distance, m: eccentric mass, w: rotational angular velocity

In addition, it is referred to as a frequency or natural vibration frequency having a frequency of vibration generated due to the rotational or reciprocating motion of the compressor 1030 . In addition, the degree to which the second damper 1040 transmits the vibration of the equipment is referred to as a vibration transmission rate. The vibration transmission rate is expressed as follows.

TR = 1/abs(1-r^2)

abs(): absolute value, r: fd/fn, fd: excitation frequency of compressor 1030, fn: natural frequency of damper (=1/(2*pi)*root(k/m)), k: damper spring coefficient of, m: mass of the damper

Therefore, in order to block the vibration, it is necessary to lower the vibration transmission rate. When the damper does not transmit the vibration of the compressor 1030, it is referred to as vibration-proof or vibration-proof. In order to decrease the vibration transmission rate, the r should be greater than the root(2). Moreover, it is preferable that r becomes larger than 3. The second damper 1040 may have a spring coefficient k for reducing the excitation frequency of the compressor 1030 .

As already described, the vibration of the compressor 1030 may prevent the user from comfortably receiving a massage. The massage device 100 according to the present disclosure may be provided with a double vibration preventing means. That is, the first damper 1060 and the second damper 1040 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user riding the main frame 2110 . Therefore, the user can receive a massage comfortably.

11 is a view showing a cross-sectional view of an air supply unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

10 and 11 together, the air supply unit 520 may include a cooling fan 1010 for cooling the compressor 1030 for generating oxygen. The cooling fan 1010 may be variably controlled according to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . For example, the massage device 100 may measure the temperature of the compressor 1030 using a sensor. The massage device 100 may increase the rotation speed of the cooling fan 1010 based on the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The rotation speed of the cooling fan 1010 may be proportional to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 1010 when the temperature of the compressor 1030 is higher than a predetermined threshold value.

The massage device 100 may further operate the cooling fan 1010 for 1 to 3 minutes after the operation of the air supply unit 520 stops. Alternatively, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 1010 until the temperature of the air supply unit 520 is lower than a predetermined threshold value even after the operation of the air supply unit 520 stops. Since the air supply unit 520 is a device that generates a lot of heat, a high temperature may be maintained even after the operation of the air supply unit 520 is stopped. The high temperature may lower the lifespan of the air supply unit 520 as well as the surrounding devices. Therefore, the massage device 100 may prevent the temperature of the air supply unit 520 from being maintained excessively elevated by operating the cooling fan 1010 .

Also, the air supply unit 520 may include an air supply unit cover 1020 . The cover 1020 may cover the opening of the air supply case 1050 . The opening of the air supply case 1050 may be formed at an upper end of the air supply case 1050 .

The cap of the air supply hole 1021 may change the direction of the cold air by the cooling fan 1010 . For example, the direction of the cold air generated by the cooling fan 1010 may be parallel to the ground. The cap of the air supply hole 1021 may change the direction of the cold air to be perpendicular to the ground and toward the inside of the air supply unit case 1050 .

The cooling fan 1010 blows air into the air supply case 1050 through the air supply hole 1021 of the air supply cover 1020, and the air supplied into the air supply case 1050 passes through the air exhaust hole. It is possible to cool the compressor 1030 for generating oxygen by allowing it to escape through the air.

More specifically, the compressor 1030 for generating oxygen may include a first cylinder chamber 1111 located on the side of the air supply hole 1021 and a second cylinder chamber 1112 located on the side of the air discharge hole 1022 . The cooling fan 1010 may blow cold air toward the first cylinder chamber 1111 through the air supply hole 1021 . The cold air may cool the compressor 1030 . Also, the cold air may be heated by the compressor 1030 . The heated air may be discharged through the air discharge hole 1022 . The air supply unit 520 having the structure shown in FIG. 11 has the effect of cooling the compressor 1030 inexpensively by using only one cooling fan 1010 .

The air discharge hole 1022 of the air supply cover 1020 may include at least one hole. The air pressure inside the air supply case 1050 may be increased by the cooling fan 1010 . The air heated by the compressor 1030 may be discharged from the air supply case 1050 to the outside by the pressure difference.

Vibration of the compressor 1030 may be prevented from being transmitted to the air supply case 1050 by the second damper 1040 .

Since the massage device 100 according to the present disclosure prevents double vibration by the first damper 1060 and the second damper 1040, the user can comfortably receive a massage.

An embodiment in which the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 are separately configured has been described in FIGS. 6 and 10 to 12 . However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The massage device 100 may contain the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 in one case. A device in which the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 are integrated is called an integrated oxygen generator. An embodiment in which the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 are contained in one case will be described with reference to FIG. 20 .

20 is a view for explaining an integrated oxygen generator including an air supply unit and an oxygen generator.

The massage device 100 may include an integrated oxygen generator 2000 . The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may be coupled to the main frame 2110 . A damper may not be included between the main frame 2110 and the integrated oxygen generator 2000 . When the compressor 1030 included in the integrated oxygen generating unit 2000 is coupled to the inside of the integrated oxygen generating unit 2000, since a double damper is used, between the main frame 2110 and the integrated oxygen generating unit 2000 Even if the damper is not included, the user may not feel the vibration. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. A damper is used between the integrated oxygen generator 2000 and the main frame 2110 to further reduce the magnitude of vibration.

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include an integrated case 2030 . A sound insulating material using a material such as a sponge or paper may be used on the inner surface of the integrated case 2030 . The compressor 1030 included in the integrated case 2030 may make a large noise. Therefore, the integrated case 2030 may use a sound insulating agent so that the noise of the compressor 1030 is not transmitted to the user. The noise of the compressor 1030 felt by the user by the integrated case 2030 using the sound insulating material may be lowered to about 37 dB or less.

A compressor 1030 and an oxygen generator 530 may be mounted inside the integrated case 2030 . There is an effect that the maintenance and management of the massage device 100 becomes easier by the modularized integrated oxygen generator 2000 .

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a third damper 2021 therein. The third damper 2021 may correspond to the first damper 1060 of FIG. 10 . The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a compressor holder 2023 therein. The compressor holder 2023 may be a structure for coupling the compressor 1030 to the integrated case 2030 . The third damper 2021 may be positioned between the compressor holder 2023 and the integrated case 2030 . The integrated case 2030 may include at least two third dampers 2021 .

The third damper 2021 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the integrated case 2030 . The third damper 2021 may be made of rubber, urethane, or silicone. The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a compressor 1030 . The compressor 1030 may cause vibration, and the vibration may be transmitted to the user along the main frame 2110 . Vibration may prevent the user from receiving a comfortable massage. The third damper 2021 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user riding on the integrated case 2030 and the main frame 2110 .

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a compressor 1030 for generating oxygen. The compressor 1030 is mounted inside the integrated case 2030 and may be a device for sucking in external air. The compressor 1030 may suck in external air and supply it to the oxygen generator 530 . The compressor 1030 may generate vibration, noise, and heat. Noise can be reduced by the sound insulating material in the integrated case 2030 and the integrated cover 2010 . Vibration may be reduced by the third damper 2021 and the fourth damper 2022 . Heat may be lowered by the cooling fan 2011 .

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a fourth damper 2022 . The fourth damper 2022 may correspond to the second damper 1040 of FIG. 10 . Like the second damper 1040 , the fourth damper 2022 may have an elastic modulus for isolating a natural vibration frequency generated by the oxygen generating compressor 1030 . The fourth damper 2022 may be used to couple the compressor 1030 and the compressor holder 2023 to each other. A screw structure may be included at both ends of the fourth damper 2022 . One end of the fourth damper 2022 may be coupled to a lower end of the compressor 1030 . The other end of the fourth damper 2022 may be coupled to the upper end of the bottom surface of the compressor holder 2023 .

In addition, the fourth damper 2022 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the compressor holder 2023 and the integrated case 2020 . More specifically, the fourth damper 2022 may include a spring to prevent vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the integrated case 2030 .

As already described, the vibration of the compressor 1030 may prevent the user from comfortably receiving a massage. The massage device 100 according to the present disclosure may be provided with a double vibration preventing means. That is, the third damper 2021 and the fourth damper 2022 may prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user riding the main frame 2110 .

Also, the massage device 100 may include a fifth damper (not shown) between the integrated case 2030 and the main frame 2110 . The massage device 100 may triple vibration by using the third damper 2021 to the fifth damper. Therefore, the user can receive a massage comfortably.

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a cooling fan 2011 for cooling the compressor 1030 . The cooling fan 2011 may be at least one. The cooling fan 2011 may be variably controllable according to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . For example, the massage device 100 may measure the temperature of the compressor 1030 using a sensor. The massage device 100 may increase the rotation speed of the cooling fan 2011 based on the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The rotation speed of the cooling fan 2011 may be proportional to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 2011 when the temperature of the compressor 1030 is higher than a predetermined threshold value.

The massage device 100 may further operate the cooling fan 2011 for 1 to 3 minutes after the operation of the compressor 1030 is stopped. Alternatively, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 2011 until the temperature of the compressor 1030 is lower than a predetermined threshold value even after the operation of the compressor 1030 is stopped. Since the compressor 1030 is a device that generates a lot of heat, a high temperature may be maintained even after the operation of the compressor 1030 is stopped. The high temperature may reduce the lifespan of the compressor 1030 as well as surrounding devices. Therefore, the massage device 100 may prevent the temperature of the air supply unit from being maintained while being elevated excessively by operating the cooling fan 2011 .

In addition, the compressor 1030 may include an integrated cover (2010). The integrated cover 2010 may cover the opening 2032 of the integrated case 2030 . The opening 2032 of the integrated case 2030 may be formed at an upper end of the integrated case 2030 .

The supplied air may be heated by various devices included in the integrated oxygen generator 2000 . The hot air inside the integrated case 2030 may escape through at least one air discharge hole 2031 .

More specifically, the compressor 1030 may include a first cylinder chamber 1111 and a second cylinder chamber 1112 . The cooling fan 1010 may blow cold air into the first cylinder chamber 1111 and the second cylinder chamber 1112 . The cold air may cool the compressor 1030 . Also, the cold air may be heated by the compressor 1030 . The air pressure inside the integrated case 2030 may be increased by the air supplied using the cooling fan 1010 . In addition, the air pressure inside the integrated case 2030 may be increased by heating the supplied air. The air heated by the compressor 1030 may escape from the integrated case 2030 by the pressure difference. The heated air may be discharged through at least one air discharge hole 2031 . The integrated oxygen generator 2000 having the structure as shown in FIG. 20 has the effect of effectively cooling the compressor 1030 .

13 is a view showing an oxygen generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen generator 530 may include an oxygen concentration module 1310 , a main bracket 1210 , and an oxygen concentration module holder 1330 .

The oxygen concentration module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen by concentrating oxygen from outside air. The oxygen concentration module 1310 may use a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) method. The PSA method uses the selective adsorption power of an adsorbent (Zeolite) to separate nitrogen and oxygen in the air. According to the PSA method, high-pressure air is passed through the adsorption tower and nitrogen and oxygen gas can be produced through continuous operations of adsorption, equalization, and desorption. Since the oxygen concentration module 1310 uses the PSA method, it is possible to generate high purity oxygen of up to 99%.

The oxygen concentration module 1310 may use an adsorbent such as zeolite. Since the oxygen concentration module 1310 has high durability, it may require less maintenance effort. For example, the oxygen enrichment module 1310 may guarantee 9000Hr performance. Therefore, the user using the massage device 100 according to the present disclosure can be guaranteed that the performance of the oxygen generating module is continuously maintained. In addition, the manufacturer of the massage device 100 according to the present disclosure can reduce the additional cost by reducing the maintenance effort.

The oxygen concentration module 1310 may use a Rapid Vacuum Swing Absorption (RVSA) method. The basic principle of RVSA is to separate nitrogen and oxygen in the air using the selective adsorption power of an adsorbent (Zeolite), which is similar to the PSA method. However, in the PSA method, oxygen is separated by pressurizing air to the adsorbent, and in the RVSA method, the adsorbent is located in the air intake part of the air compressor and air passes through the adsorbent by strong suction force to separate oxygen. The PSA method has the advantage of generating very high purity oxygen. The RVSA method has the advantages of being compact in size, having a large flow rate, low noise (35 dB), and low power.

Although only the PSA or RVSA method has been described above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Temperature Swing Adsorption (TSA) may be used. In addition, various other methods for generating oxygen may be used.

The main bracket 1210 may be coupled to the main frame 2110 of the massage device 100 . 12 , the main bracket 1210 may include a support 1211 . The support 1211 may be placed on the main frame 2110 . In addition, the support 1211 may be coupled to the main frame 2110 with screws.

Referring back to FIG. 13 , the oxygen concentrating module holder 1330 may be configured to couple the main bracket 1210 and the oxygen concentrating module. An oxygen concentration module holder 1330 may be placed on the main bracket 1210 , and the main bracket 1210 and the oxygen concentration module holder 1330 may be screwed together.

The oxygen concentration module holder 1330 may be designed to hold both sides of the oxygen concentration module 1310 . The user may allow the oxygen concentration module 1310 to be coupled to the holder 1330 by simply pressing the oxygen concentration module 1310 on the oxygen concentration module holder 1330 . Referring to FIG. 14 to describe a structure in which the oxygen concentration module 1310 is fixed to the main bracket 1210 .

14 shows an oxygen concentration module 1310 , an oxygen concentration module holder 1330 , and a main bracket 1210 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen concentration module holder 1330 may include a first convex grip 1331 and a second convex grip 1332 . The first convex grip 1331 and the second convex grip 1332 may face each other, and may be convex toward the oxygen concentrating module 1310 .

A first concave portion 1311 and a second concave portion (not shown) may be included at both sides of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 . A first convex grip 1331 may be inserted into the first concave portion 1311 of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 . Also, the second convex grip 1332 may be inserted into the second concave portion (not shown) of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 so that the oxygen concentrating module may be coupled to the oxygen concentrating module holder. For example, the coupling portion 1413 indicates that the first convex grip 1331 is inserted into the first concave portion 1311 of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 .

In addition, the oxygen concentration module 1310 and the main bracket 1210 may be screw-coupled. Specifically, referring to the coupling portion 1411 and the coupling portion 1412 , the oxygen concentration module 1310 and the main bracket 1210 may be screwed together. One end of the main bracket 1210 having the coupling portion 1411 and the coupling portion 1412 may be located in the user's leg direction. In addition, the other end of the main bracket 1210 may be located in the direction of the user's head. Here, the user's leg direction means the user's leg direction when the user sits on the massage device 100 .

As described above, since the oxygen concentrating module 1310 is coupled to the holder 1330 or the main bracket 1210 in a simple manner, the user can easily replace the oxygen concentrating module 1310 .

Referring back to FIG. 13 , the oxygen generator 530 may include a regulator 1350 . The regulator 1350 may constantly maintain the pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated from the oxygen concentration module. The atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 may increase or decrease rapidly. When the atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen rapidly rises or falls, a physical burden may be placed on the devices near the oxygen generating module 1310 and the lifespan of the devices near the oxygen generating module 1310 may be shortened. The regulator 1350 may reduce the physical burden of peripheral devices by maintaining the atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen constant.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a control board 1340 . The oxygen generator 530 may include a control board bracket 1341 . The control board bracket 1341 may be configured to fix the control board 1340 . Hereinafter, reference is made to FIG. 15 to describe the control board 1340 .

The oxygen generation control board 1340 may perform various functions related to the oxygen generation unit 530 based on a signal from the control unit 300 . The oxygen generation control board 1340 controls at least one of the voltage supplied to the oxygen generator 530, the atmospheric pressure of the external air supplied to the oxygen generator 530, the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen, or the atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen. can

The oxygen generation control board 1340 may control at least one valve in order to control the inflow or discharge amount of concentrated oxygen or external air. The oxygen generation control board 1340 may be controlled based on a signal from the controller 300 of FIG. 3 . Also, the control unit 300 of FIG. 3 may transmit a control signal to the oxygen generation control board 1340 based on a signal from the user input unit 2180 or the massage apparatus control device 2200 .

Also, the control board 1340 may include an oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 . The oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 may measure various values related to the oxygen generation unit 530 . The oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 may measure at least one of the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen, the atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen, the atmospheric pressure of the compressed air introduced from the air supply unit 520 or the input voltage value of the oxygen generation unit 530 . can The oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 may transmit the measured value to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 . The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may perform various operations based on the measured values.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a pressure sensor for measuring the pressure of the gas. The pressure sensor may be included in the oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 . 14 , the control board 1340 may include an oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 . The control board 1340 and the oxygen generation module 1310 may be connected to each other by a pipe 1420 for measuring pressure. The pressure sensor included in the control board 1340 may measure the atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generation module 1310 . Alternatively, the pressure sensor may measure the pressure inside the oxygen generating module 1310 .

Referring back to FIG. 15 , the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may obtain a pressure of concentrated oxygen from the pressure sensor. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may determine whether the oxygen concentration module normally operates based on the pressure of the concentrated oxygen.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may determine whether the pressure of the concentrated oxygen is equal to or greater than a first predetermined threshold value and less than a predetermined second threshold value. When the pressure of the concentrated oxygen is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and is less than the second threshold value, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may determine that the oxygen generation unit 530 is operating normally. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may transmit a signal indicating that the oxygen generation unit 530 is normal to the control unit 300 .

When the pressure of the enriched oxygen is less than the first threshold or greater than or equal to the second threshold, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may determine that the oxygen generation unit 530 is operating abnormally. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may transmit a signal indicating that the oxygen generation unit 530 is abnormal to the control unit 300 . The control unit 300 may take necessary measures based on the signal of the oxygen generation control unit 1510 .

Also, the controller 300 may cut off the power to the oxygen generator 530 in order to protect the user from abnormal operation of the oxygen generator 530 .

Hereinafter, piping of the oxygen generator 530 will be described together with FIG. 16 .

16 is a view for explaining piping of an oxygen generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen generation control board 1340 and the oxygen generation module 1310 may be connected with a pressure measuring tube 1420 . Since the pressure measurement tube 1420 has already been described, the overlapping description will be omitted.

A first pipe 1630 may be connected between the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 . In the first pipe 1630 , the compressed air generated by the air supply unit 520 may flow to the oxygen generator 530 . The first tube 1630 may have a strength that can withstand the pressure of compressed air.

The oxygen generating module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen based on the external air supplied by the air supply unit 520 . Concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 may be dried. This is because moisture is not separately supplied from the oxygen generating module 1310 , and some of the moisture included in the external air sucked into the first pipe 1630 is absorbed by the oxygen generating module 1310 . Since the concentrated oxygen is dry, the tubes included in the massage device 100 may be dry inside, and mold may not occur. Therefore, the concentrated oxygen inhaled by the user is hygienic, and there may be no odor caused by mold.

Concentrated oxygen may move to the regulator 1350 through the second tube 1610 . The atmospheric pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 may be variable. The regulator 1350 may constantly change the pressure of the concentrated oxygen and output it.

The regulator 1350 and the output valve may be connected through the third pipe 1620 . Concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure by the regulator 1350 may move from the regulator 1350 to the output valve. The output valve may be controlled by the oxygen generation control unit 1510 . The output valve may or may not discharge concentrated oxygen to the discharge pipe 1640 based on a signal from the oxygen generation control unit 1510 . However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure may flow into the discharge pipe 1640 without passing through the output valve.

The discharge pipe 1640 may be connected to the flow pipe. The flow pipe is connected to the discharge port 540 , and the discharge port 540 may supply concentrated oxygen to the user.

17 is a view for explaining piping of an oxygen generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen generation controller 1510 may change the mode of the oxygen generator 530 or stop the operation of the oxygen generator 530 based on the received signal. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may receive a signal from the control unit 300 .

When a predetermined condition is satisfied, the control unit 300 may transmit a control signal to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 . In addition, based on an input signal of the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 , the controller 300 of FIG. 3 may determine whether to transmit a signal to the oxygen generation controller 1510 . Also, based on an input signal of the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 , the controller 300 may operate the oxygen generator 530 in one mode among a plurality of modes.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a first valve 1710 . The first valve 1710 may be configured to mix external air into the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 . The first valve 1710 may be controlled by the oxygen generation controller 1510 .

The discharge pipe 1640 may include a first discharge pipe 1641 and a second discharge pipe 1642 . The first discharge pipe 1641 may be connected to the first valve 1710 . When the first valve 1710 is opened, external air may be introduced into the first discharge pipe 1641 . When the first valve 1710 is closed, external air may not flow into the first discharge pipe 1641 .

The second discharge pipe 1642 may be a pipe through which concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure supplied from the regulator 1350 flows. That is, the third pipe 1620 may be connected to the second discharge pipe 1642 .

When the first valve 1710 is opened, the external air of the first discharge pipe 1641 and the concentrated oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be mixed and delivered to the user through the flow path pipe. At this time, the flow rate flowing through the flow pipe by the external air may increase, but the concentration of oxygen may decrease.

When the first valve 1710 is closed, the concentrated oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be delivered to the user through the flow path pipe. Since external air is not supplied to the flow pipe, the flow rate flowing through the flow pipe may be small. However, the oxygen concentration of the gas flowing through the flow pipe may be high.

The user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 may include a button for changing the mode of the oxygen generating device. The button may be a physical button or an icon displayed on the screen in software. The user can change the mode of the oxygen generator by pressing a button. For example, the at least one mode may be changed like the first mode -> the second mode -> ... -> the Nth mode -> OFF -> the first mode. Here, OFF means that the oxygen generating device is terminated. The control unit 300 may transmit a signal to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 based on a signal from the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 . The signal may be related to a mode of the oxygen generating device. The oxygen generator may control the amount of oxygen generated or the concentration of oxygen based on the received signal.

Also, the massage device 100 may include a plurality of massage modes. The massage device 100 may store the mode of the oxygen generating device corresponding to the massage mode. The control unit 300 may transmit a signal to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 according to the massage mode the user is receiving. The signal may be related to a mode of the oxygen generating device. The oxygen generation controller 1510 may change the mode of the oxygen generator based on the received signal.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the first mode, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 closes the first valve 1710 and supplies only the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen concentration module 1310 to the flow path tube. The generator 530 may be operated.

The first mode generates 1 L/min of concentrated oxygen, and the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen may be 80% to 90%. Referring to FIG. 17 , when the oxygen generation control unit 1510 closes the first valve, external air may not be supplied to the first discharge pipe 1641 . The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may discharge the concentrated oxygen from the second discharge pipe 1642 to the flow path pipe. Here, the concentrated oxygen may be concentrated oxygen whose pressure is constantly changed by the regulator 1350 . Concentrated oxygen may be delivered to a user through a flow path.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the second mode, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 opens the first valve 1710 and mixes the concentrated oxygen and external air generated in the oxygen concentration module 1310 to flow path The oxygen generator 530 may be operated to supply it to the tube.

The second mode generates 2 L/min of concentrated oxygen and the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen may be 45% to 55%. Compared to the first mode, the second mode may have a higher flow rate and a lower concentration of oxygen in the flow path. Referring to FIG. 17 , when the oxygen generation control unit 1510 opens the first valve, external air may be supplied to the first discharge pipe 1641 . In addition, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may discharge the concentrated oxygen from the second discharge pipe 1642 to the flow path pipe. Here, the concentrated oxygen may be concentrated oxygen whose pressure is constantly changed by the regulator 1350 . The external air of the first discharge pipe 1641 and the concentrated oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be mixed and delivered to the user through the flow path.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the third mode, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may increase the power supplied to the oxygen concentration module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 . For example, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may increase the voltage or current supplied to the oxygen concentration module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 . Also, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the first valve. Since the first valve is closed, external air from the first discharge pipe 1641 may not flow into the flow pipe.

When the power, voltage, or current supplied to the oxygen concentration module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 increases, the oxygen concentration module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen of higher purity. For example, the third mode generates 1 L/min of concentrated oxygen and the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen may be 90% to 100%.

18 is a block diagram illustrating an oxygen concentration module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen enrichment module 1310 may include a first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 and a second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 . The first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 and the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may include a nitrogen-absorbing material to generate enriched oxygen from outside air. The material that absorbs nitrogen may be a zeolite. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.

The first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 and the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may alternately operate at a predetermined period of time. The predetermined period may be 5 to 20 seconds. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the predetermined period may be determined differently. The first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 and the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may absorb nitrogen under specific conditions to generate enriched oxygen. Also, the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 and the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may release nitrogen that has been absorbed under other specific conditions. When the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 generates enriched oxygen, the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may release the absorbed nitrogen. Conversely, when the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 generates enriched oxygen, the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 may release the absorbed nitrogen.

The oxygen concentration module 1310 may include a nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 for discharging concentrated nitrogen. The nitrogen discharge chamber may be a place where nitrogen discharged from the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 or the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 is collected. Concentrated nitrogen in the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 may be discharged through a nitrogen discharge pipe.
