The connecting arm 27 is configured so that the base end of the connecting arm 27 is pivotally supported by the front end portion (pivoting support portion) of the massage arm 26 so as to swing freely about an axis in the left-right direction. Here, the pivot support portion is provided with a spring member (biasing means) (not shown), which elastically connects the massage arm 26 and the connecting arm 27 so that the front end of the connecting arm 27 (with the rubbing treatment element 8 Side) is often offset upward.

With this spring member, the connecting arm 27 is inclined upward by about 30°, and the massage treatment tool 8 (details will be described later) provided at the front end of the connecting arm 27 fits the user M's buttocks. In addition, even if the buttocks strongly touch the kneading treatment tool 8 and the kneading treatment tool 8 is strongly pressed downward, only the connecting arm 27 swings downward, and the pressing force from the buttocks can be caused by the spring member. The elasticity absorption can avoid the problem of being transmitted to the rotating shaft 11 and the like and destroying the massage mechanism 3 and so on. In addition, due to the biasing force of the spring member, the connecting arm 27 always faces upward, and the kneading treatment element 8 always adheres to the buttocks, so that a comfortable massage can be provided.

At the front end of the connecting arm 27 (each of the upper end and the lower end of the massage body 12), a rubbing treatment element 8 that contacts the buttocks and performs rubbing massage is installed. In terms of the shape of the pressing treatment member 8, various configurations can be adopted, but in the case of the present embodiment, the pressing treatment member 8 is provided in a spherical shape. By using such a ball-shaped massage treatment element 8, the massage treatment element 8 can contact the buttocks in a wide area, which can provide a better massage.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the pressing massage mechanism 3b has a pressing massage body 48 that presses the treatment part of the user M from the outside in the width direction. In addition, the pressing massage mechanism 3b has a pressing massage converting section 49 that converts the above-mentioned rotational movement of the rotating shaft 11 into a translational movement in the left-right direction and transmits it to the pair of pressing massage bodies 48. The pressing massage body 48 and the pressing massage conversion part 49 are respectively provided on the left side of the left side kneading massage body 12 and on the right side of the right side kneading massage body 12, and a pair are provided on the left and right. Specifically, the pressing massage converting portion 49 is respectively provided on the rotating shaft 11 between the above-mentioned first bearing portion 14a and the second bearing portion 14b. 2 The rotating shaft 11 between the bearing portions 14b. In addition, in each pressing massage changing portion 49, the pressing massage body 48 described above is provided so as to extend upward.

Next, the pressing massage body 48 and the pressing massage conversion part 49 installed in the pressing massage mechanism 3b of the buttocks massage machine 1 of the present embodiment will be described.

The pressing massage body 48 is a rod-shaped member extending so as to stand upward from below. The front end (upper end) of the pressing massage body 48 is elliptical (grass bag-like) with a bulging long diameter in the front-rear direction, and the pressing massage body is attached so that the bulged part of the elliptical shape faces the width direction inside. 48. The user M's treatment area (waist to thigh side) can be effectively massaged in a wide range.

In addition, the tip of the pressing massage body 48 may be formed using a synthetic resin material such as a part of elastic foaming urethane so that the tip can touch the treatment part with a soft touch. In addition, on the lower end side of the pressing massage body 48, a pressing ring fitting part of the pressing massage converting part 49 described later is provided, and the pressing ring fitting part is sheathed on the pressing massage converting part through the intervening The portion 49 can be input while converting the rotational driving force of the rotating shaft 11.

The pressing massage conversion part 49 is the same as the kneading inclined protrusion 21, and includes: the pressing inclined protrusion 50, the shaft center is installed in the direction inclined to the axis of the rotating shaft 11, and the outer peripheral surface is formed with The cam surface; the pressing ring-shaped fitting portion is provided at the base end of the pressing massage body 48 and nested in the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50; and the pressing restricting portion 51 restricts the pressing of the massage body 48 It rotates with the rotation of the rotating shaft 11.

The pressing inclined protrusion 50 is a cylindrical member formed in the same manner as the kneading inclined protrusion 21, and is attached to the rotating shaft 11 with its axis in a direction inclined to the rotating shaft 11. An annular circular track (cam surface) is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50, and the annular circular track (cam surface) surrounds the axis inclined to the rotating shaft 11, where the pushing The cam surface of the inclined convex portion 50 is pressed, and the intermediary bearing is slidably sheathed with a pressing ring-shaped fitting portion for pressing the massage body 48.

Regarding the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 described above, the pressing inclined protrusion 50 on the left and the pressing inclined protrusion 50 on the right are inclined in opposite directions to the axis of the rotating shaft 11. For example, when the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 on the left side is inclined to the upper right, the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 on the right is inclined to the upper left. In this way, if the inclination direction of the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 is set to be opposite to the left and right, when the pressing massage body 48 on the left swings to the right, the pressing massage body 48 on the right swings to the left and the left When the pressing massaging body 48 swings to the left, the pressing massaging body 48 on the right swings to the right, and can be actuated in such a way that the left and right pressing massaging bodies 48 approach or move away from each other.

In the massage mechanism 3 of the first embodiment, the inclination direction of the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 is set to the same inclination direction as the cam surface of the kneading inclined protrusion 21. However, the inclination direction of the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 provided in the massage mechanism 3 of the present invention may not be the same as the inclination direction of the cam surface of the kneading inclined protrusion 21. Because if the cam surface of the pressing inclined protrusion 50 is inclined in a direction different from that of the kneading inclined protrusion 21, the pressing massage body 48 can swing with a phase difference with respect to the swing motion of the kneading massage body 12. The massage mechanism 3 can give the user various massage feelings.

The pressing ring-shaped fitting portion is formed on the base end side (lower end side) of the pressing massage body 48, and a side view viewed from the outside in the left-right direction becomes a ring-shaped member. That is, the center of the pressing ring-shaped fitting portion is formed as a circular hole penetrating in the left-right direction, and the cam surface interposing bearing for pressing the inclined convex portion 50 is nested here to form a circular hole. The rotation movement of the rotating shaft 11 is converted into a translational movement (swing movement) along the left-right direction of the pressing massage body 48. In other words, the pressing ring-shaped fitting portion is relatively rotatable relative to the pressing inclined convex portion 50, and the movement direction can be changed by restricting the rotation by the pressing restricting portion 51 described later.

The pressing restricting portion 51 is a member that restricts the pressing ring-shaped fitting portion from rotating with respect to the pressing inclined protrusion 50, and has a pressing restricting pin 52 protruding downward from the base end side of the pressing massage body 48 , And the pressing restriction groove 53 that restricts the rotation of the pressing massage body 48 by nesting the pressing restriction pin 52. Specifically, the pressing restriction pin 52 protrudes downward from the proximal end side of the pressing massage body 48.

Furthermore, the pressing restricting groove 53 is a member that restricts the rotation of the pressing massage body 48 by engaging with the aforementioned pressing restricting pin 52. In this embodiment, the base 13 below the rotating shaft 11 is It is formed along the left-right direction and penetrates the base 13 in the up-down direction. The width of the pressing restriction groove 53 is set to a size slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pressing restriction pin 52, and the pressing restriction pin 52 can be formed along the left and right direction with the pressing restriction groove 53 inserted. guide.

On the other hand, the pressing restriction groove 53 restricts the inserted pressing restriction pin 52 from moving in the up-down direction and the front-rear direction. That is, in the pressing restriction portion 51, the pressing restriction pin 52 is inserted into the pressing restriction groove 53 to restrict the rotation of the pressing inclined protrusion 50, and the distal end side of the pressing massage body 48 is set to the proximal end side. As the center only swings in the left and right directions, pressing massage by pressing the massage body 48 can be performed.

That is, in the buttocks massage machine 1 provided with the above-mentioned pressing massage mechanism 3b, the left and right pressing massage bodies 48 can be moved close to or separated from each other, and a pressing massage can be applied to the treatment part. Therefore, for the treatment part including at least the buttocks of the user, not only the kneading massage by the kneading massage mechanism 3a but also the pressing massage by the pressing massage mechanism 3b can be performed.

In the buttocks massage machine 1 provided with the above-mentioned pressing massage mechanism 3b, the size of the buttocks of the user M who wants to receive treatment is not fixed. Therefore, for example, in order to better massage the user with a small buttocks size, if the installation interval of the left and right pressing massage members is set to be narrow, it will be difficult for a user with a large buttocks size. There are cases where the pressing force generated by pressing the massage body becomes too large, and it may feel uncomfortable depending on the situation.

It is also considered that if the installation interval of the left and right pressing massage members 48 is too wide, for users with small buttocks, the pressing force generated by pressing the massage body 48 will become too weak, and it will become too weak depending on the situation.
