Description

A leg massage device that helps massage the leg muscles and can be used in a variety of desired postures

The present invention relates to a leg massage device, and more particularly, to a leg massage device that is useful for massaging the leg muscles and can be used according to various desired postures.

In a conventional chair-type massager, it is known to include a seat part on which a user sits, a leg support part rotatably connected in front of the seat part, and a footrest part connected in front of the leg support part. Massage means such as airbags are provided on the leg support or footrest, and the user can perform a massage using the massage means while maintaining the calf on the leg support and at the same time keeping the foot on the footrest. is to be done

As a connection structure of the leg support part and the footrest part in the massager, for example, in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1998-295753), the surface on which the user mainly puts the calf in the leg support part (hereinafter referred to as "calf holding surface") ) and a surface (hereinafter referred to as a "foot holding surface") on which a user's toe to the sole of the foot is placed in the footrest is fixed in a substantially orthogonal position.

However, when the leg support and the footrest are integrally fixed in this way, the user's ankle is always maintained at a certain angle, making it difficult to rest comfortably.

On the other hand, referenced document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-310682) discloses that the footrest part is rotatably connected up and down with respect to the legrest part via a link mechanism. The footrest has a structure that constantly maintains the level regardless of rotation of the legrest, and when the legrest is operated to an approximately horizontal position, the legrest and the footrest form a straight line.

In this state, the user can apply the massage by placing the back side of his/her own ankle on the foot holding surface of the footrest part.

However, even in the massager, the angle between the leg support and the footrest is determined according to the posture of the leg support, and it is impossible for the user to freely change the angle. In addition, after operating the leg support to a substantially horizontal position, it is very difficult to massage the calf and the sole of the foot at the same time in a forward-stretched posture because an unreasonable posture is required when the sole of the foot is placed on the foot holding surface of the footrest.
