Description

Horizontal massage relaxer

This invention provides a horizontal massage relaxer, specifically a massager that can imitate the flat pushing and kneading movements of people using their fingers to massage and can control the massage depth and speed.

Because modern people live at a fast pace and work very busy, some people have to repeat the same movements while working, some people have to sit or stand for a long time while working, and some people exercise too much, which often causes muscle tension and physical discomfort.

According to the theory, muscle tension in the body is often caused by high-intensity exercise, repetitive movements, or maintaining a posture for a long time, which continuously exerts pressure on the myofascia, causing the myofascia to lack water and lose elasticity, which in turn compresses and pulls the muscles wrapped in it, causing us to feel muscle stiffness, tension, and soreness.

Long-term muscle tension will lead to muscle tissue entanglement and adhesion, prone to spasm and injury, and will also affect blood circulation and metabolism, causing negative effects on the body. When muscles are tense and myofascia is dehydrated, you can relieve muscle tension by replenishing water, massaging, etc.

Please refer to Figure 10, which is a diagram of the state of muscle fibers when the muscles are tight and sore. When the muscles are tight, a tight band 91 will be generated, and some muscle fibers at the painful area 92 will produce nodules 93. The muscle fibers will become smaller due to the tightness and the formation of nodules 93. Normal muscle fibers 94 do not have nodules 93 and maintain normal tightness and width. At this time, if you massage, it can help the muscles restore elasticity and softness, thereby improving the soreness.

Please refer to Taiwan Patent No. M593856 "Massage head of vibration massage gun" (hereinafter referred to as the first patent), Taiwan Patent No. M599643 "Muscle massage gun" (hereinafter referred to as the second patent), Taiwan Invention Patent No. I746189 "Electric massage device with gradually increasing output as the massage depth increases" (hereinafter referred to as the third patent). These three patents all use a massage head or massage element to repeatedly tap the sore muscle area in a vertical direction, hoping to improve the discomfort of muscle soreness, but they have the following disadvantages:

1. Since the technical features of these cases are to repeatedly tap the deep muscles of the sore area vertically, although tapping can help the muscles restore elasticity and softness, thereby improving the soreness, the tapping process is extremely painful.

2. Since the technical features of these cases are to repeatedly tap the deep muscles of the sore area vertically, in addition to causing abnormal pain, it will also cause tissue damage and rupture of microvessels.

3. Since the technical features of these cases are to repeatedly tap the deep muscles of the sore area vertically, there is a risk of accidentally injuring the bones of the back, knee joints, elbow joints and other protruding bones.

In view of this, in order to improve the many shortcomings of previous technologies, the creator of this invention, based on many years of teaching experience in related fields, has devoted himself to research and produced samples for testing. After repeated testing and improvement, this creation that finally achieves the following creative purpose has been born. I hope it can benefit the public and reduce the pain and discomfort of patients.

The main purpose of this invention is to provide a horizontal massage relaxer that can imitate the flat pushing and kneading movements of people using their fingers for massage, while also being able to control the depth and speed of the massage to avoid injuries to bones, deep tissues, and rupture of capillaries.

Therefore, in order to achieve the above-mentioned creative purpose, this invention provides a horizontal massage relaxer, which includes: a handle, a cover, a drive group, a support group, a movable plate, and a massage member, wherein; the handle is generally a rectangular tube frame, which has two long sides and two short sides, and the two short sides each constitute a grip; the bottom end of the cover is hollow and communicates with the outside, and is fixed together with the handle, and has a chamber inside, and a push switch is provided on the outer side. , the push switch is electrically connected to a circuit board of a drive unit; the drive unit includes a motor and a circuit board, the motor and the housing are locked together, the bottom end of the motor is fixedly connected to a chassis, the chassis is locked together with the housing, the output shaft of the motor passes through the chassis, an eccentric shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft, the eccentric shaft is connected to a swing arm, and the other end of the swing arm has a counterweight. When the output shaft is driven by the motor to rotate, it can synchronously drive the eccentric shaft, the swing arm, and the counterweight to rotate together. The motor is electrically connected to the circuit board, which is electrically connected to a power cord, and the entire drive assembly is housed in a housing of the housing; the motor can be turned on and off by pressing a switch; the support assembly includes a plurality of legs, each of which is respectively combined and fixed to the periphery of the chassis, and the other end of each leg is locked together with a movable plate, and each leg can swing when subjected to force; the movable plate is a flat plate body, which is locked together with one end of each leg, and has a central through hole in the center, and the movable plate is A raised bearing seat is formed on the back of the central through hole, and the bearing seat is connected to the central through hole. A bearing with a shaft hole is placed in the bearing seat. The bearing seat and the bearing are in a tight state.
