Abstract

PURPOSE:To efficiently give a satisfactory influence to a human body from a standpoint different from that of a conventional massage machine by forming a treatment part and a grip part of a pair of electrodes, and providing a timer circuit to alternatively operate a driving circuit making a driving mechanism into a movable state, and a low frequency generating circuit. CONSTITUTION:When a main switch 35 is set in a turning ON state, a timer circuit 39 is operated. While a light emitting diode 65 is emitted, a photo-DIAC 46 in a motor driving circuit 37 is turned on and an optical switch 45 is set in a turning ON state. With such a state, heads 3 and 4 start reciprocative vibration through a driving mechanism 5 and vibrating shafts 12 and 13 and a treating part 2 in contact with the human body executes massage by patting. On the other hand, while the light emitting diode 65 is quenched, the patting is stopped and a light emitting diode 66 is emitted, a low frequency voltage is continuously applied through the treatment part 2 and a grip part 31. Thus, the massage by patting and the application of the low frequency can be alternatively executed.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] λKong Tachigai Negative [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a pine surge machine.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, pine surgery machines have been known that have a configuration that can be held by hand and are equipped with a grip section for this purpose and a treatment section for pine surgery.

With such a pine surge machine, the treatment section vibrates back and forth to perform pine surgery by hitting, brushing, etc. the human body.

The gripping part and the treatment part also function as an electrode pair, and a high potential generation circuit is interposed between the electrode pair, and the high potential generation circuit generates an electrode from the high potential generation circuit at the same time as the treatment part performs pine surge. A pine surge device that applies a high potential to the human body through a pair has also been proposed by the applicant of the present invention (publication of Utility Model Publication No. 63-72403). This pine surge machine (Friend) can cause headaches, insomnia, and other symptoms by alkalizing the body.
It is also effective against allergic diseases.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] This is how 1: The conventional pine surgery machine has a positive effect on the human body through physical stimulation, but the people who use the pine surgery machine (may be affected by various symptoms, constitutions, and conditions) For some reason, it is different from the pine surge machine,
There was a desire for something that would have a positive effect on the human body, and something that would more efficiently impart that effect to the human body. [Treatment Department]
This is because due to the reciprocating vibrations, the contact area with the human body may become small or the contact area may become distant from the human body, and as a result, high potential may not be effectively applied to the human body.

The present invention (Table 1) An object of the present invention is to provide a pine surgery machine that solves the above-mentioned problems and efficiently exerts a positive effect on the human body from a different perspective than conventional pine surgery machines.

The structure of the present invention that achieves the above object will be explained below.

[Means for Solving the Problems] A pine surgical machine according to the present invention, which has a treatment section that vibrates back and forth by a drive mechanism, and a gripping section, wherein the treatment section and the gripping section form an electrode pair. , a low frequency generation circuit is interposed between the electrode pair, and a timer circuit is provided that alternately operates the drive circuit that makes the drive mechanism movable and the low frequency generation circuit.

[Function] In the pine surge machine of the present invention having the above configuration (when the companion timer circuit moves the drive mechanism via the drive circuit, the application of low frequency voltage to the treatment section is stopped and the treatment section vibrates back and forth. Therefore, at this time, one friend is batted, etc., and a pine surge is performed.

On the other hand, when the timer circuit activates the low frequency generation circuit, the treatment part stops and the treatment part and grip part, which also function as electrode pairs, recover from fatigue and promote blood circulation. Low frequency (frequency is 3 to 1200) that is effective for
Approximately 1 cycle) voltage is applied to the human body.

Since the timer circuit (top) drive circuit and low frequency generation circuit are operated alternately, pine surge such as batting and application of low frequency voltage are performed alternately. Since the treatment section does not vibrate back and forth, the contact area with the human body can be kept substantially constant, and a constant low frequency voltage can be applied to the human body.

turns on. Therefore, the motor drive circuit 37 and the turned-on side of the low frequency generation circuit 38 operate alternately.

Next, the operation of the pine surge machine 1 having such a configuration will be explained based on FIG. 1@FIG. 4.

Set the main switch 35 to the on state (“weak” or 1 strong). Next 1: Hold the grip part 31 with your hand and bring either one of the treatment parts 2, 4a of the heads 3, 4 into contact with the human body. For example, a case will be described in which the treatment section 2 is brought into contact with a human body.

Since the main switch 35 is in the on state, the timer circuit 39 is activated, and a pattern in which the light emitting diode 65 emits light for 15 seconds and the light emitting diode 66 emits light for 3 seconds is alternately repeated.

The light emitting diode 65 emits light r81 The photodiac 46 in the motor drive circuit 37 turns on,

A low frequency voltage is continuously applied for a light emission time of 6 (3 seconds in this example). In addition, the application time of the low frequency voltage is 3
Since the time is set to seconds, the user can continue to use the pine surge machine without feeling anxious that the pine surge machine has stopped.

In this way, pine surge by putting and application of low frequency are alternately performed.

As explained above, the pine surge machine of this embodiment (the two types of pats on the treatment parts 2 and 4a that can provide different stimulation depending on the surface condition) promotes blood circulation, relieves fatigue, and relieves neuralgia/muscle pain. In addition, it is possible to apply a low frequency voltage of about 1000 [Hzl] to the user, which exerts effects such as the relaxation of The effect on the user can be doubled.It also has the effect of being able to treat peripheral nerve paralysis, which can be particularly well recovered by applying low-frequency voltage.

The pine surge machine of this embodiment (which is extremely economical and rational) can exhibit such an effect with a single i+t.Moreover, the pine surge machine and low frequency voltage application by the 2° 4a pat of the treatment area can be are performed alternately under the control of the timer circuit 39, so when applying the low frequency voltage, the treatment parts 2 and 4a, which function as electrodes, stop, thereby preventing fluctuations in the contact area with the human body. Low frequency voltage is used efficiently. can be granted to a person.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. For example, by adding a switch to the control circuit, only batching, only low frequency application, putting and low frequency application can be performed. It goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various ways without departing from the gist of the present invention, such as a configuration in which the three operations of alternating with frequency application can be appropriately selected.

As described in detail above, the pine surge machine of the present invention has the following advantages:
By putting the treatment part on the human body as it reciprocates, it can have effects on the human body such as promoting blood circulation, recovering from fatigue, and relieving neuralgia and muscle pain. By applying voltage,
Such effects can be exerted on the human body. Therefore, these effects can be doubled and exerted on the human body. It also has the effect of being able to treat diseases such as peripheral nerve palsy, which is particularly well-recovered by applying low-frequency voltage.

[More]: The pine surge machine of the present invention (above) Since the above effects can be achieved with a single machine, it is an extremely economical and rational machine.

Moreover, since the pine surge by patting etc. and the application of low frequency voltage are performed alternately, the treatment part that functions as an electrode stops when applying the low frequency voltage, and as a result, fluctuations in the contact area with the human body are prevented. Voltage can be applied efficiently.
