Description

Pillow type neck massager

More particularly, the present invention relates to a pillow-type neck massage apparatus which relieves stress by relaxing the neck muscles while rigidly supporting the neck muscles.

Generally, a pillow is bedding that supports the head when sleeping or resting, and most of the conventional pillows have a cushion by simply inserting a pillow inside the pillow body.

However, such a conventional pillow simply lacks the function of supporting the head, and thus it is insufficient to meet the needs of consumers who require various functions.

In addition, many people complain of physical pain after work, especially in the neck with stiff shoulders are often appealing.

This is often due to overwork, stress, or a long working posture, in which case the cervical vertebrae are abnormally bent and the shoulder muscles are severely rigid.

At this time, it is recommended to use the pillow for cervical vertebrae when sleeping, and the rigid shoulder muscles need to be released before sleeping with massage or pressure.

Accordingly, the conventional pillow is limited in use because it has merely a support function of the neck, and a pillow capable of performing advanced functions in order to satisfy consumer's needs is being developed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a pillow-type neck massage apparatus which relieves stress by relieving the back of a user while chucking the user's neck.

However, the object of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned object, and another object which is not mentioned can be understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a neck massage device comprising a pedestal 100 for supporting the back of a neck when the neck massage device 10 is tilted, and a pedestal 100 for supporting the lower housing 110 and the upper cover 120, .

In addition, a neck massage device 200 is mounted on the lower housing 110 to drive the neck massage device 200 to shave the neck, thereby relieving stress.

At this time, the neck massage device 200 includes two acupressure rods 210 for pressing a predetermined part of the neck.

The two acupressure rods 210 include a left acupressure rod 210a for pressing a predetermined portion on the left side of the back of the neck and a right acupressure rod 210b for pressing a predetermined portion on the right side of the neck.

The vertical driving unit 220 moves the two acupressure rods 210 in a vertical (z-axis) direction toward the neck of a person when the person lies down. When the two acupressure rods 210 are laid, A left and right driving unit 230 for moving the two acupressure rods 210 in the left and right directions (x axis), and a vertical driving unit 240 for moving the two acupressure rods 210 in a person's up and down direction (y axis) when the person is lying down.

Accordingly, the two pressure-sensitive rods 210 can be vertically moved while being vertically or horizontally moved, so that stress can be relieved by pressing the backboard.

Meanwhile, when the two hydraulic pressure rods 210 are moved in the upward and downward directions (y axis) through the up and down driving unit 240, the left and right driving units 230 and the vertical driving units 220 are moved together, And the vertical driving unit 220 may be mounted on the up and down driving unit 240 to move the two acupressure rods 210 up and down.

When the two pressure-sensitive adhesive rods 210 are moved in the vertical direction (z-axis) through the vertical driving part 220, the left and right driving parts 230 are coupled to the vertical driving part 220 so that the left and right driving parts 230 are moved together. So that the two hydraulic pressure rods 210 can be vertically moved.

In addition, as the left and right driving units 230 are driven, the two acupressure rods 210 can be moved so that the distances between the two acupressure rods 210 are increased or decreased.

Further, the two pressure-sensitive rods 210 are mounted on the ends of the x-axis moving body 237 in the left and right driving units 230.

After the plate spring 232 is mounted on the end of the x-axis moving body 237, the pressure bar 210 is mounted on an end of the plate spring 232.

Therefore, stress can be alleviated by shaking the back of the back so that the strength of the back pressure can be adjusted at the time of the back pressure due to the elastic force of the leaf spring 232.

The features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description based on the accompanying drawings.

Prior to that, terms and words used in the present specification and claims should not be construed in a conventional and dictionary sense, and the inventor may properly define the concept of the term in order to best explain its invention It should be construed as meaning and concept consistent with the technical idea of the present invention.

As described above, according to the present invention, an elastic member made of an elastic member presses the neck muscles of the neck repeatedly while pressing the muscles of the neck, massage the neck muscles of the neck to release the clogged blood, There is an effect that can alleviate the stress.

In addition, as a result of the performance evaluation of the pillow type neck massager of the present invention, the rate of increase in the rate of the slow wave and the rate of the slow wave rate of the experimental group using the pillow type neck massager of the present invention was improved, It can be seen that sleeping effect is better than using a normal pillow.
