Definitions
- the invention relates to a massage device for performing massages, in particular on the torso or limbs of the human body, consisting of a base station with at least one conveyor for a massage medium and at least one treatment part which is connected to the base station by a supply line, the supply line being used for transport of the massage medium and for pressure-free return transport of at least part of the massage medium is provided.
- Devices for the use of massage therapy are known in various versions, with these devices an attempt being made to imitate the manual rubbing and kneading of the skin and muscles.
- devices are used in which a vibrating surface is placed on the body part to be massaged in order to passively move the muscles.
- the disadvantage of these devices is that the vibration only produces an effect on the surface of the skin that creates a pleasant feeling, but does not lead to sufficient therapeutic relaxation and blood circulation in the deeper muscle layers.
- a massage device in which the pressure medium to be conveyed is received in a base station and is guided under pressure via a supply line to a treatment part.
- the supply line also enables the unpressurized massage medium to be transported back.
- the various treatment parts that can be connected to the supply line are adapted in accordance with the body shape to be treated in each case, and in order to avoid contact with the pressure medium, the respective treatment part is sealed by an elastic membrane.
- the aforementioned massage device works here with fixed nozzles, which are arranged inside the treatment part behind the membrane. It has been found to be disadvantageous that the entire membrane surface facing the body part is not acted upon by the pressure medium and thus only a selective partial massage occurs.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of eliminating the existing disadvantages and achieving an improvement in the massage effect.
- the invention provides that the massage medium exits through at least one movable nozzle in the treatment part and the jet of which sweeps the surface of a membrane that seals the treatment part from the human body part.
- the movable nozzle in the treatment part alternately covers the surface of the existing membrane, thus achieving a selective and highly effective massage on the one hand, and fully integrating the part of the body to be treated into the massage on the other.
- the jet of the massage medium for example water or a water-air mixture, exerts a certain pressure on the membrane, which is transferred to the human body. This pressure is dependent on the outflow velocity of the massage medium from the medium supply opening into the treatment head, e.g. depending on a nozzle.
- the massage device according to the invention has the advantages that are already known, that the patient to be treated does not come into contact with the pressure medium and thus there is no need to take off and put on when only individual parts of the body, for example in the shoulder area, are to be treated.
- the massage medium is fed through one or more movable nozzles or, if necessary, through a movable multiple nozzle, the movement of the nozzle preferably being effected by the pressure of the massage medium, similar to a lawn sprinkler, so that the jet of the pressure medium covers the surface even in the case of a large-sized membrane can completely brush.
- a movable nozzle By connecting a movable nozzle, it is also possible to reduce the amount of pressure medium used, so that a smaller environmental pump can also be used if necessary.
- the nozzle can be moved by means of a corresponding mechanism, but preferably by means of a movable plastic tube, in the interior of which a specially shaped, freely movable, but secured against longitudinal displacement, wire-shaped guide element is arranged.
- the guide element is bent in two planes, with a first angle ⁇ between 0 and 180 ° between the axial directions of the two ends of the flexible hose and a deflection angle ⁇ between 0 and 90 ° between the axial direction of the nozzle end of the hose and the plane formed by the angle of attack ⁇ .
- the massage medium exits with pulsating pressure, so that a particularly high depth effect is achieved.
- one or more induction coils are arranged on the massage head, which enable magnetic field therapy during the massage.
- a suitable induction coil is integrated into the massage head, which can be placed on the patient's body.
- a suitable device for attaching the treatment head to the patient's body can additionally be provided.
- treatment heads adapted to different parts of the body can be used, as described in German Patent 197 21 456.
- induction coils for example ring-shaped coils which consist of a wire-shaped or etched copper conductor and are integrated in the massage head.
- a deformable, flexible planar coil consisting of a spiral, etched copper conductor which is integrated on or in the plastic membrane of the massage head can also be used.
- the planar coil brings about a pronounced focusing of the magnetic field and a large, consumption-free frequency range.
- the flexible plastic membranes are at the same time insulators and exist e.g. B. made of polyamide, polycarbonate, polyurethane or silicone rubber. These coils can be integrated in a particularly advantageous manner in differently shaped treatment parts of the massage device without major problems.
- the magnetic field strength, pulse duration, frequency and treatment duration can optionally be set selectively with different programs via a control device.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the invention
- FIG. 2 shows an exemplary embodiment of a movable nozzle in a schematic side view
- FIG. 3 shows a round massage head with an integrated coil for magnetic field therapy and massage
- FIG. 4 shows the round massage head known from FIG. 3 in individual representation
- FIG. 5 shows an annular coil for use in the massage head according to FIG. 4,

- FIG. 7 the deformable planar coil according to FIG. 5 embedded in a plastic membrane.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the system according to the invention with a base station 1, a supply line 2 with a treatment part 3 and other elements.
- the base station 1 consists of a cabinet, or container 5, which is fastened on four rollers or wheels 6 and in the cover 7 of which the supply line 2, an air hose 9 and display devices 10 are embedded.
- a rectangular ventilation opening 11 inserted into the visible, top-side wall of the cabinet or container 5 is provided for ventilation.
- a handle 12 formed at a right angle and the attached treatment part 3.
- the treatment part 3 can be screwed, plugged in or clamped onto the supply line 2, for example.
- the base station 1 is also connected to a power cable 13 for the voltage supply.
- the treatment part 3 has, as further explained in the figures below, the movably arranged nozzle.
- FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a movable nozzle 20 in a schematic side view.
- a flexible hose 21 has a nozzle-shaped end piece 22 at its first end and is fixed in the treatment part 3 at its second end.
- a wire-shaped guide element 23 is freely movable, but secured against longitudinal displacement.
- the guide element 23 is bent in two planes, with an angle alpha of 0 to 180 ° between the axial directions of the two ends of the flexible hose 21 and a deflection angle ⁇ of 0 to 90 ° between the axial direction of the nozzle head 22 and the plane formed by the angle of attack ⁇ .
- the flexible hose 21 executes a rotational movement about the axis of the hose connection via a lever effect.
- FIG. 3 shows the use of a round treatment head 3 and a supply hose 31 for treating a back area 33.
- FIG. 4 shows the treatment part 3 in a front view with the supply hose 31 and the membrane 32.
- a magnetic field coil as shown in FIG. 5, 6 or 7, can be integrated.
- FIG. 5 shows an annular magnetic field coil 34 which, for example, is pushed into the treatment part 30 and is supplied with voltage via an electrical connecting line which runs within the supply line 31.
- FIG. 6 shows an annular planar coil 35 with two connection contacts 36, 37 for the application of voltage.
- the planar coil 35 shown consists of a spiral, etched copper conductor 38 which is fastened on a membrane 32 as a dielectric.
- a flat planar coil 40 which consists of etched copper conductors.
- the copper conductors 42 are fastened on a plate-shaped, possibly elastic dielectric 43.
- FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of a planar coil 35, which has a structure comparable to the planar coil 35 of FIG. 6 and is embedded directly in a double-walled membrane 41.
- the voltage supply for the magnetic field therapy is advantageously supplied within the supply line 2, it being possible for a corresponding control device to be integrated within the base station 1.
