The present disclosure relates to a massage device, and more particularly, to a massage device including an oxygen generator.

Massage or massage is a method of controlling the modulation of a subject's body by applying various types of mechanical stimulation to a part of the subject's body, such as kneading, pressing, pulling, tapping, or moving a part of the subject's body. , It is a medical auxiliary therapy that helps blood circulation and relieves the subject's fatigue.

The increase in demand for massage has resulted in an increase in demand for a massage device or massage device providing an artificial massage function due to economic reasons and time. That is, as the demand for relieving fatigue or stress while relaxing muscles through massage increases, various massage devices that are time- and cost-effective are being released. Any type of instrument, device, or device that performs a massage through a mechanical device without a separate masseur is referred to as a massage device.

Due to the recent increase in fine dust caused by air pollution, opportunities to access clean air have decreased not only in cities but also in suburbs. Accordingly, there are many cases in which air purifiers for accurate air are purchased. However, when the air purifier is used in an enclosed space, fine dust can be removed, but the oxygen concentration gradually decreases due to the user's breathing.

When the concentration of oxygen is reduced, breathing may become rapid, the pulse rate may increase, and symptoms of dizziness and vomiting may occur. In addition, when the oxygen concentration drops significantly, it can lead to unconsciousness or, in severe cases, death. Therefore, even if an air purifier is used, it is necessary to continuously ventilate to maintain the oxygen concentration at a certain level. However, in the case of ventilation, there was a problem that fine dust from the outside was introduced back into the room.

In addition, when oxygen is sufficiently supplied in the human body, the mood improves, fatigue can be recovered, vitality can be generated, stress can be reduced, concentration can increase, and a refreshing mood can be maintained. It also helps with sleep, so you can wake up refreshed in the morning. Therefore, research on oxygen generators is being actively conducted.

As one method for implementing an oxygen generator, there is a membrane method. The principle of the membrane method is to use the selective separation characteristics of polymer membranes such as hollow fiber membranes or flat membranes. That is, it is an oxygen generating method using a membrane that can selectively separate oxygen in the air. According to this method, it can be implemented with a simple device and requires low implementation cost, but it can only generate oxygen of about 23% to 30% of low purity, and there are problems such as the occurrence of mold due to condensation. .

A compressor 1030 may be mounted in the air supply unit case 1050, and the compressor 1030 may generate a large noise. Accordingly, the air supply unit case 1050 may include a sound insulation material so that noise from the compressor 1030 is not transmitted to the user. The noise of the compressor 1030 felt by the user can be lowered to about 37 dB or less by the air supply unit case 1050 using the sound insulation material.

The air supply unit 520 may include a first damper 1060. Some of the first dampers 1060 may be located between the main frame 2110 and the air supply unit case 1050 of the massage device 100 . Some of the first dampers 1060 may be located between the main bracket of the oxygen generator 530 and the air supply unit case 1050 . The air supply unit case 1050 may include at least one connection leg 1051 . The first damper 1060 may be located at the lower end of the connecting bridge 1051 .

The first damper 1060 may prevent vibration of the air supply unit 520 from being transmitted to the main frame 2110 . The first damper 1060 may be made of rubber, urethane, or silicon. The first damper 1060 can reduce the resonance of the air supply unit 520 due to the viscosity of the material itself. In addition, since the first damper 1060 does not generate additional noise, noise of the air supply unit 520 as well as vibration can be reduced.

As already described, the air supply unit 520 may include a compressor 1030. The compressor 1030 may cause vibration, and the vibration may be transmitted to the user along the main frame 2110. Vibration may prevent the user from being massaged comfortably. The first damper 1060 may prevent vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user via the main frame 2110 .

The air supply unit 520 may include a compressor 1030 for generating oxygen. The compressor 1030 is mounted inside the air supply unit case 1050 and may be a device for sucking external air. The compressor 1030 may suck in external air and supply it to the oxygen generator 530 . Compressor 1030 may generate vibration, noise and heat. Noise can be reduced by the sound insulation included in the air supply unit case 1050 and the air supply unit cover 1020 . Vibration may be reduced by the first damper 1060 and the second damper 1040 . Heat may be lowered by the cooling fan 1010 .

The air supply unit 520 may include a second damper 1040 . The second damper 1040 may be used to couple the oxygen generating compressor 1030 and the air supply unit case 1050 to each other. Screw structures may be included at both ends of the second damper 1040 . One end of the second damper 1040 may be coupled to a lower end of the compressor 1030 . The other end of the second damper 1040 may be coupled to the upper end of the bottom of the air supply unit case 1050 .

In addition, the second damper 1040 may prevent vibration of the oxygen generating compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the air supply unit case 1050 . More specifically, the second damper 1040 includes a spring to prevent vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transferred to the air supply unit case 1050 . The spring coefficient of the second damper 1040 may be determined according to the excitation frequency of the compressor 1030 . The second damper may have an elastic modulus for isolating a natural vibration frequency generated by the oxygen generating compressor 1030 .

More specifically, when the components inside the compressor 1030 rotate and reciprocate, vibration occurs due to imbalance or shaking of the device, and this force is referred to as excitation force. The magnitude of the excitation force of the rotating device is expressed as follows.

F = m*r*w^2

F: exciting force, r: eccentric distance, m: eccentric mass, w: rotational angular velocity

In addition, it is referred to as a frequency with a frequency of vibration caused by rotational motion or reciprocating motion of the compressor 1030 or a natural vibration frequency. In addition, the degree to which the second damper 1040 transmits the vibration of the equipment is called the vibration transmission rate. The vibration transmissibility is expressed as follows.

TR = 1/abs(1-r^2)

abs(): absolute value, r: fd/fn, fd: excitation frequency of the compressor 1030, fn: natural frequency of the damper (=1/(2*pi)*root(k/m)), k: damper m is the mass of the damper

Therefore, it is necessary to lower the transmission rate of vibration in order to block vibration. When the damper does not transmit the vibration of the compressor 1030, it is called vibration damping or damping. In order to lower the vibration transmissibility, the r must be greater than the root (2). It is also preferable that r be larger than 3. The second damper 1040 may have a spring coefficient k for reducing the excitation frequency of the compressor 1030 .

As already described, the vibration of the compressor 1030 may prevent the user from comfortably receiving a massage. Massage device 100 according to the present disclosure may be provided with a double anti-vibration means. That is, the first damper 1060 and the second damper 1040 can prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user via the main frame 2110 . Therefore, the user can comfortably receive a massage.

The cooling fan 1010 may be variably controlled according to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . For example, the massage device 100 may measure the temperature of the compressor 1030 using a sensor. The massage device 100 may increase the rotational speed of the cooling fan 1010 based on the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The rotational speed of the cooling fan 1010 may be proportional to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 1010 when the temperature of the compressor 1030 is higher than a predetermined threshold value.

The massage device 100 may further operate the cooling fan 1010 for 1 to 3 minutes even after the operation of the air supply unit 520 has stopped. Alternatively, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 1010 until the temperature of the air supply unit 520 is lower than a predetermined threshold even after the operation of the air supply unit 520 is stopped. Since the air supply unit 520 generates a lot of heat, a high temperature can be maintained even after the operation of the air supply unit 520 is stopped. A high temperature may reduce the lifespan of not only the air supply unit 520 but also surrounding devices. Therefore, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 1010 to prevent the temperature of the air supply unit 520 from being maintained at an excessively elevated level.

In addition, the air supply unit 520 may include an air supply unit cover 1020 . The cover 1020 may cover the opening of the air supply unit case 1050 . An opening of the air supply unit case 1050 may be formed at an upper end of the air supply unit case 1050 .

The cap of the air supply hole 1021 may change the direction of the cool air by the cooling fan 1010 . For example, the direction of cool air generated by the cooling fan 1010 may be parallel to the ground. The cap of the air supply hole 1021 may change the direction of cool air to the inside of the air supply unit case 1050 perpendicularly to the ground.

The cooling fan 1010 blows air into the air supply unit case 1050 through the air supply hole 1021 of the air supply unit cover 1020, and the air supplied into the air supply unit case 1050 passes through the air discharge hole. It is possible to cool the compressor 1030 for oxygen generation by allowing it to escape through.

More specifically, the oxygen generating compressor 1030 may include a first cylinder chamber 1111 located on the side of the air supply hole 1021 and a second cylinder chamber 1112 located on the side of the air discharge hole 1022 . The cooling fan 1010 may blow cool air toward the first cylinder chamber 1111 through the air supply hole 1021 . Cold air may cool the compressor 1030. Cold air can also be warmed by the compressor 1030. The warmed air may be discharged through the air discharge hole 1022 . The air supply unit 520 having the same structure as shown in FIG. 11 has an effect of inexpensively cooling the compressor 1030 using only one cooling fan 1010 .

The air discharge hole 1022 of the air supply unit cover 1020 may include at least one hole. Air pressure inside the air supply unit case 1050 may be increased by the cooling fan 1010 . The air warmed by the compressor 1030 may escape from the air supply unit case 1050 to the outside due to a pressure difference.

12 is a view for explaining a first damper and a second damper of an air supply unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The first damper 1060 may have a donut shape. A screw may be passed through a hole included in the first damper 1060 so that the air supply unit case 1050 may be coupled to the main frame 2110 or the main bracket 1210 of the oxygen generator 530 .

Some of the connection bridges 1051 may be coupled to the main frame 2110 . Also, some of the connection bridges 1051 may be coupled to the main bracket 1210 of the oxygen generator 530. Vibration of the air supply unit 520 may be prevented from being transmitted to the main bracket 1210 or the main bracket 1210 by the first damper 1060 .

The second damper 1040 may include a bolt shape at both ends. One end of the second damper 1040 may be coupled to a lower end of the compressor 1030 .

A sound insulation material using a material such as sponge or paper may be used on the inner surface of the integrated case 2030 . The compressor 1030 included in the integrated case 2030 may make a loud noise. Therefore, the integrated case 2030 may use a sound insulation material so that the noise of the compressor 1030 is not transmitted to the user. The noise of the compressor 1030 felt by the user can be lowered to about 37 dB or less by the integrated case 2030 using the sound insulation material.

A compressor 1030 and an oxygen generator 530 may be mounted inside the integrated case 2030 . There is an effect that maintenance of the massage device 100 is convenient by the modularized integrated oxygen generator 2000 .

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a third damper 2021 therein. The third damper 2021 may correspond to the first damper 1060 of FIG. 10 . The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a compressor holder 2023 therein. The compressor holder 2023 may be a structure for coupling the compressor 1030 to the integrated case 2030 .

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a compressor 1030 . The compressor 1030 may cause vibration, and the vibration may be transmitted to the user along the main frame 2110. Vibration may prevent the user from being massaged comfortably. The third damper 2021 can prevent the vibration of the compressor 1030 from being transmitted to the user via the integrated case 2030 and the main frame 2110 .

The integrated oxygen generating unit 2000 may include a compressor 1030 for generating oxygen. The compressor 1030 is mounted inside the integrated case 2030 and may be a device for sucking external air. The compressor 1030 may suck in external air and supply it to the oxygen generator 530 . Compressor 1030 may generate vibration, noise and heat. Noise can be reduced by sound insulation in the integrated case 2030 and the integrated cover 2010. Vibration may be reduced by the third damper 2021 and the fourth damper 2022 . Heat may be lowered by the cooling fan 2011.

The integrated oxygen generator 2000 may include a fourth damper 2022 . The fourth damper 2022 may correspond to the second damper 1040 of FIG. 10 .

The cooling fan 2011 may be variably controllable according to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . For example, the massage device 100 may measure the temperature of the compressor 1030 using a sensor. The massage device 100 may increase the rotational speed of the cooling fan 2011 based on the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The rotational speed of the cooling fan 2011 may be proportional to the temperature of the compressor 1030 . The massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 2011 when the temperature of the compressor 1030 is higher than a predetermined threshold value.

The massage device 100 may further operate the cooling fan 2011 for 1 to 3 minutes even after the operation of the compressor 1030 has stopped. Alternatively, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 2011 until the temperature of the compressor 1030 is lower than a predetermined threshold even after the operation of the compressor 1030 is stopped. Since the compressor 1030 is a device that generates a lot of heat, a high temperature can be maintained even after the operation of the compressor 1030 is stopped. A high temperature may reduce the lifespan of the compressor 1030 as well as peripheral devices. Therefore, the massage device 100 may operate the cooling fan 2011 to prevent the temperature of the air supply unit from being maintained at an excessively elevated level.

The oxygen concentrating module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen by concentrating oxygen from external air. The oxygen concentrating module 1310 may use a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) method. The PSA method separates nitrogen and oxygen in the air by using the selective adsorption power of an adsorbent (Zeolite). According to the PSA method, high-pressure air is passed through the adsorption tower, and nitrogen and oxygen gas can be produced through continuous operations of adsorption, pressure equalization, and desorption. Since the oxygen concentrating module 1310 uses the PSA method, it is possible to generate high-purity oxygen of up to 99%.

The oxygen concentrating module 1310 may use an adsorbent such as zeolite. Since the oxygen concentrating module 1310 has high durability, effort for maintenance may be reduced. For example, the oxygen enrichment module 1310 can guarantee 9000 Hr performance. Therefore, the user using the massage device 100 according to the present disclosure can be ensured that the performance of the oxygen generation module is continuously maintained. In addition, manufacturers of the massage device 100 according to the present disclosure can reduce additional costs due to reduced maintenance efforts.

In addition, the second convex grip 1332 may be inserted into the second concave portion (not shown) of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 so that the oxygen concentrating module may be coupled to the oxygen concentrating module holder. For example, referring to the coupling portion 1413 , the first convex grip 1331 is inserted into the first concave portion 1311 of the oxygen concentrating module 1310 .

Also, the oxygen concentrating module 1310 and the main bracket 1210 may be screwed together.

In addition, the other end of the main bracket 1210 may be located in the direction of the user's head. Here, the user's leg direction means the user's leg direction when the user sits on the massage device 100 .

As such, since the oxygen concentrating module 1310 is coupled to the holder 1330 or the main bracket 1210 in a simple manner, the user can easily replace the oxygen concentrating module 1310.

Referring back to FIG. 13 , the oxygen generator 530 may include a regulator 1350 . The regulator 1350 may maintain a constant pressure of concentrated oxygen generated from the oxygen enrichment module. Air pressure of the enriched oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 may rapidly rise or fall. When the atmospheric pressure of the enriched oxygen rapidly rises or falls, a physical load may be applied to devices near the oxygen generating module 1310 and the lifespan of devices near the oxygen generating module 1310 may be shortened. The regulator 1350 may reduce a physical burden on peripheral devices by maintaining a constant air pressure of the enriched oxygen.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a control board 1340. The oxygen generator 530 may include a control board bracket 1341. The control board bracket 1341 may be a component for fixing the control board 1340. Hereinafter, reference is made to FIG. 15 to describe the control board 1340.

In addition, the control board 1340 may include an oxygen generation sensor unit 1520. The oxygen generating sensor unit 1520 may measure various values related to the oxygen generating unit 530 . Oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 measures at least one of the concentration of oxygen in concentrated oxygen, the atmospheric pressure of concentrated oxygen, the atmospheric pressure of compressed air introduced from the air supply unit 520, or the input voltage value of the oxygen generating unit 530. can The oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 may transmit the measured value to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 . The oxygen generating controller 1510 or the controller 300 may perform various operations based on the measured value.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a pressure sensor for measuring gas pressure. A pressure sensor may be included in the oxygen generation sensor unit 1520. A pressure sensor may be included in the sensor unit 310 . Referring briefly to FIG. 14 , the control board 1340 may include an oxygen generation sensor unit 1520 . The control board 1340, the oxygen generation module 1310, and the pressure measurement tube 1420 may be connected. The pressure sensor included in the control board 1340 may measure the air pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 . Alternatively, the pressure sensor may measure the pressure inside the oxygen generation module 1310. Alternatively, the pressure sensor may measure the pressure inside the oxygen discharge chamber 1840.

Referring back to FIG. 15 , the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may obtain the pressure of the enriched oxygen from the pressure sensor. The oxygen generation controller 1510 may determine whether the oxygen enrichment module operates normally based on the pressure of the enriched oxygen.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may determine whether the pressure of the enriched oxygen is greater than or equal to a first predetermined threshold and less than a second predetermined threshold. When the pressure of the enriched oxygen is greater than or equal to the first threshold and less than or equal to the second threshold, the oxygen generation controller 1510 may determine that the oxygen generator 530 is operating normally. The oxygen generator controller 1510 may transmit a signal indicating that the oxygen generator 530 is normal to the controller 300 .

When the pressure of the enriched oxygen is less than the first threshold value or greater than the second threshold value, the oxygen generating control unit 1510 may determine that the oxygen generating unit 530 is operating abnormally. The oxygen generator controller 1510 may transmit a signal indicating that the oxygen generator 530 is abnormal to the controller 300 .

The controller 300 may take necessary actions based on a signal from the oxygen generating controller 1510 . For example, the controller 300 may display on the display that there is a problem with the oxygen generating unit 530 . In addition, the control unit 300 may cut off power to the oxygen generator 530 to protect the user from abnormal operation of the oxygen generator 530 .

Also, the controller 300 may receive information about the gas pressure of the oxygen discharge chamber from the pressure sensor. In addition, when the information on the gas pressure is equal to or less than the first threshold and greater than the third threshold, the control unit 300 may output a signal indicating that the life of the zeolite included in the oxygen generating unit has expired. In this case, the first threshold may be greater than the third threshold. The third threshold may be a predetermined value. The user can know when to replace the zeolite based on the output signal and can replace the zeolite. Therefore, the massage device 100 can supply optimal oxygen to the user.

In addition, the control unit 300 may output a signal indicating that there is a failure in the oxygen generating unit 530 when the information on the gas pressure is less than or equal to the third threshold value. The information on the gas pressure is less than the third threshold when the oxygen generator 530 leaks gas, the air supply unit 520 has a problem, or some of the pipes included in the oxygen generator 530 are clogged. can be Since the user can quickly know that there is something wrong with the massage device 100, he can quickly cope with it.

Hereinafter, the piping of the oxygen generating unit 530 will be described together with FIG. 16 .

16 is a view for explaining a pipe of an oxygen generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen generating control board 1340 and the oxygen generating module 1310 may be connected through a tube 1420 for measuring pressure. Since the tube 1420 for pressure measurement has already been described, duplicate descriptions will be omitted.

A first pipe 1630 may be connected between the air supply unit 520 and the oxygen generator 530 . Compressed air generated in the air supply unit 520 may flow to the oxygen generator 530 through the first pipe 1630 . The first pipe 1630 may have strength capable of withstanding the pressure of compressed air.

Based on the external air supplied by the air supplier 520, the oxygen generation module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen. Concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generating module 1310 may be dried. This is because moisture is not separately supplied from the oxygen generating module 1310, and some of the moisture contained in the external air sucked through the first pipe 1630 is absorbed by the oxygen generating module 1310. Since the concentrated oxygen is dry, the inside of the tubes included in the massage device 100 may be dry and mold may not be generated. Therefore, the concentrated oxygen inhaled by the user is hygienic and may not have an odor caused by mold.

Concentrated oxygen may move to the regulator 1350 through the second pipe 1610 . The air pressure of the concentrated oxygen generated by the oxygen generation module 1310 may be variable. The regulator 1350 may constantly change and output the pressure of the enriched oxygen.

The regulator 1350 and the output valve may be connected through a third pipe 1620. Concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure by the regulator 1350 may move from the regulator 1350 to the output valve. The output valve may be controlled by the oxygen generation controller 1510. The output valve may or may not discharge concentrated oxygen to the discharge pipe 1640 based on a signal from the oxygen generating controller 1510 . However, it is not limited thereto, and concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure may flow into the discharge pipe 1640 without passing through the output valve.

The discharge pipe 1640 may be connected to the flow pipe. The flow pipe is connected to the outlet 540, and the outlet 540 can supply concentrated oxygen to the user.

17 is a view for explaining a pipe of an oxygen generator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

The oxygen generator control unit 1510 may change the mode of the oxygen generator 530 or stop the operation of the oxygen generator 530 based on the received signal. The oxygen generating controller 1510 may receive a signal from the controller 300 .

The control unit 300 may transmit a control signal to the oxygen generation control unit 1510 when a predetermined condition is satisfied. In addition, based on the input signal of the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200, the control unit 300 of FIG. 3 may determine whether to transmit a signal to the oxygen generation control unit 1510. In addition, based on the input signal of the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200, the control unit 300 may operate the oxygen generating unit 530 in one mode among a plurality of modes.

The oxygen generator 530 may include a first valve 1710. The first valve 1710 may be configured to introduce external air into the enriched oxygen generated by the oxygen generation module 1310 . The first valve 1710 may be controlled by the oxygen generation controller 1510.

The discharge pipe 1640 may include a first discharge pipe 1641 and a second discharge pipe 1642 . The first discharge pipe 1641 may be connected to the first valve 1710 . When the first valve 1710 is opened, outside air may flow into the first discharge pipe 1641 . When the first valve 1710 is closed, outside air may not flow into the first discharge pipe 1641 .

The second discharge pipe 1642 may be a pipe through which concentrated oxygen having a constant pressure supplied from the regulator 1350 flows. That is, the third pipe 1620 may be connected to the second discharge pipe 1642 .

When the first valve 1710 is opened, the external air of the first discharge pipe 1641 and the enriched oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be mixed and delivered to the user through the flow pipe. At this time, the flow rate of the external air flowing through the flow pipe increases, but the concentration of oxygen may decrease.

When the first valve 1710 is closed, the enriched oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be delivered to the user through the flow pipe. Since external air is not supplied to the flow pipe, the flow rate flowing through the flow pipe may be small. However, the oxygen concentration of the gas flowing through the flow pipe may be high.

The user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 may include a button for changing the mode of the oxygen generating device. The button may be a physical button or may be an icon displayed on the screen in terms of software. The user can change the mode of the oxygen generator by pressing a button. For example, at least one mode may be changed as follows: 1st mode -> 2nd mode -> ... -> Nth mode -> OFF -> 1st mode. Here, OFF means that the oxygen generator is shutting down. The controller 300 may transmit a signal to the oxygen generation controller 1510 based on a signal from the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 . The signal may be related to the mode of the oxygen generating device. The oxygen generating device may control the amount of oxygen generated or the concentration of oxygen based on the received signal.

Also, the massage device 100 may include a plurality of massage modes. The massage device 100 may store a mode of an oxygen generating device corresponding to a massage mode. The controller 300 may transmit a signal to the oxygen generating controller 1510 according to the massage mode that the user is receiving. The signal may be related to the mode of the oxygen generating device. The oxygen generating controller 1510 may change the mode of the oxygen generating device based on the received signal.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the first mode, the oxygen generating control unit 1510 closes the first valve 1710 and supplies only the concentrated oxygen generated in the oxygen concentrating module 1310 to the flow pipe. The generating unit 530 may be operated.

The first mode generates concentrated oxygen at 1 L/min, and the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen may be 80% to 90%. Referring to FIG. 17 , when the oxygen generating controller 1510 closes the first valve, external air may not be supplied to the first discharge pipe 1641 . The oxygen generating controller 1510 may discharge concentrated oxygen from the second discharge pipe 1642 to the flow pipe. Here, the enriched oxygen may be enriched oxygen whose pressure is constantly changed by the regulator 1350. Enriched oxygen may be delivered to the user through the flow pipe.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the second mode, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 opens the first valve 1710 and mixes the enriched oxygen generated in the oxygen concentrating module 1310 with external air to flow through the flow path. It is possible to operate the oxygen generating unit 530 to supply to the tube.

The second mode generates enriched oxygen at 2 L/min, and the concentration of oxygen in the enriched oxygen may be 45% to 55%. Compared to the first mode, the second mode may have a high flow rate and a low oxygen concentration in the flow pipe. Referring to FIG. 17 , when the oxygen generating controller 1510 opens the first valve, external air may be supplied to the first discharge pipe 1641 . In addition, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may discharge concentrated oxygen from the second discharge pipe 1642 to the flow pipe. Here, the enriched oxygen may be enriched oxygen whose pressure is constantly changed by the regulator 1350. The external air of the first discharge pipe 1641 and the enriched oxygen of the second discharge pipe 1642 may be mixed and delivered to the user through the flow pipe.

When the signal received from the control unit 300 indicates the third mode, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may increase power supplied to the oxygen concentrating module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 . For example, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may increase the voltage or current supplied to the oxygen concentrating module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 . Also, the oxygen generation controller 1510 may close the first valve. Since the first valve is closed, external air from the first discharge pipe 1641 may not flow into the flow pipe.

When the power, voltage, or current supplied to the oxygen concentrating module 1310 or the air supply unit 520 increases, the oxygen concentrating module 1310 may generate concentrated oxygen of higher purity. For example, the third mode generates enriched oxygen at 1 L/min, and the concentration of oxygen in the enriched oxygen may be 90% to 100%.

However, it is not limited thereto, and the massage device 100 may supply oxygen in one mode without including the first mode to the third mode. The massage device 100 may generate gas containing 50% or more and 60% or less oxygen at 1.5 liters or more and 2.5 liters or less per minute by using the oxygen generating unit 530 . In addition, the massage device 100 may discharge gas generated in the oxygen generating unit through the oxygen outlet 540 . The massage device 100 may stop or start the operation of the oxygen generator 530 based on the user's selection. The user can selectively inhale about 2L per minute of oxygen of 50% or more and 60% or less.

The first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 and the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 may absorb nitrogen under specific conditions to generate enriched oxygen. Also, the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 and the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 may release nitrogen that has been absorbed under other specific conditions. When the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 generates concentrated oxygen, the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 may release absorbed nitrogen. Conversely, when the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 generates concentrated oxygen, the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 may release the absorbed nitrogen.

The oxygen enrichment module 1310 may include a nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 for discharging concentrated nitrogen. The nitrogen discharge chamber may be a place where nitrogen discharged from the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 or the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 is collected. Nitrogen enriched in the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 may be discharged through a nitrogen discharge pipe. The nitrogen discharge pipe may be connected to a space separated from the space where the massage device 100 is located. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the user from inhaling the generated nitrogen. In addition, the massage device 100 may include a nozzle for blowing enriched nitrogen into the packaging container. Users can use enriched nitrogen to preserve food for a long time. The massage device 100 may discharge nitrogen from a nozzle based on a control unit 300 or a user's input. Users can blow enriched nitrogen with food into the airtight bag.

The operation of the second valve 1851 to the seventh valve 1856 will be described below. First, a process in which the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 generates concentrated oxygen and the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 discharges nitrogen will be described.

The oxygen generating controller 1510 may open the second valve 1851 to supply external air from the air supply unit 520 to the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 . A substance included in the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 generates concentrated oxygen by adsorbing nitrogen from outside air.

The oxygen generating controller 1510 may not supply external air from the air supply unit 520 to the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 by closing the third valve 1852 . Materials included in the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may emit nitrogen. The oxygen generating controller 1510 may control the temperature or pressure of the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 to create a condition in which the material in the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 can emit nitrogen.

Concentrated oxygen in the oxygen discharge chamber 1840 may be supplied to the user along the discharge pipe 1640 and the flow pipe.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the fifth valve 1854 so as not to supply gas from the second oxygen enrichment chamber to the oxygen discharge chamber. As already described, the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 may contain a nitrogen-rich gas. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent gas containing nitrogen from flowing into the oxygen discharge chamber 1840 .

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the sixth valve 1855 so as not to supply concentrated oxygen generated in the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 to the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent unnecessary waste of concentrated oxygen.

A nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 may collect nitrogen. The massage device 100 may include a nitrogen discharge pipe. The nitrogen discharge pipe may be connected to a space separate from the space where the massage device 100 is located. That is, the generated concentrated nitrogen may be discharged to a space separated from the space in which the massage device 100 is being used. Therefore, oxygen may increase in the space where the user is. For example, if the massage device 100 is inside the house, concentrated nitrogen may be discharged outside the house.

Also, when oxygen supply needs to be stopped according to a user's input or a decision of the control unit 300, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the fourth valve 1853 and open the sixth valve 1855. Accordingly, concentrated oxygen generated in the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 may be discarded through the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830.

Next, a process in which the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 generates concentrated oxygen and the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 discharges nitrogen will be described.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may not supply external air from the air supply unit 520 to the first oxygen concentrating chamber 1810 by closing the second valve 1851 . Materials included in the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 may emit nitrogen.

The oxygen generating control unit 1510 may supply external air from the air supply unit 520 to the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 by opening the third valve 1852 . A material included in the second oxygen concentrating chamber 1820 absorbs nitrogen from outside air to generate concentrated oxygen.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the fourth valve 1853 so as not to supply the gas in the first oxygen enrichment chamber to the oxygen discharge chamber. As already described, the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 may contain a nitrogen-rich gas.

The oxygen generating control unit 1510 may open the fifth valve 1854 to supply concentrated oxygen generated in the second oxygen concentrating chamber to the oxygen discharging chamber 1840 . Concentrated oxygen in the oxygen discharge chamber 1840 may be supplied to the user along the discharge pipe 1640 and the flow pipe.

In addition, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may open the sixth valve 1855 to supply gas from the first oxygen enrichment chamber 1810 to the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 . A nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 may collect nitrogen. The massage device 100 may include a nitrogen discharge pipe. The nitrogen discharge pipe may be connected to a space separate from the space where the massage device 100 is located. That is, the generated concentrated nitrogen may be discharged to a space separated from the space in which the massage device 100 is being used. Therefore, oxygen may increase in the space where the user is. For example, if the massage device 100 is inside the house, concentrated nitrogen may be discharged outside the house.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the seventh valve 1856 so as not to supply concentrated oxygen generated in the second oxygen enrichment chamber 1820 to the nitrogen discharge chamber 1830 . Therefore, it is possible to prevent unnecessary waste of concentrated oxygen.

In addition, when oxygen supply needs to be stopped according to a user's input or a decision of the control unit 300, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 may close the fifth valve 1854 and open the seventh valve 1856.

In addition, the air sucked into the inlet 1920 may be used again to generate concentrated oxygen by the oxygen generating unit 530 .

A flow of concentrated oxygen may be generated by the oxygen outlet 1910 and the inlet 1920 . In addition, the flow of concentrated oxygen may have an effect of gathering a lot of oxygen on the user's face. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9 , it is possible for the user to inhale the concentrated oxygen without using the rod-shaped outlet. In this case, since the massage device 100 may have a simple design, not only aesthetic satisfaction is given to the user, but also durability of the discharge port may be increased.

According to another embodiment, the oxygen outlet 1930 may be formed along the direction of the main frame 2110 on the user's left and right sides.

Referring to FIGS. 9 and 19 , the outlets 540 , 1910 , and 1930 may include a second filter to prevent the user from inhaling foreign substances. That is, the enriched oxygen moving along the flow pipe may pass through the second filter before being discharged through the outlets 540, 1910, and 1930. The second filter may filter and discharge dust or harmful substances that may exist in the air supply unit 520, the oxygen generator 530, and the flow pipe. Accordingly, the massage device 100 may perform an air purification function as well as discharging oxygen.

The second filter may include fragrance nanocapsules. The user can inhale the concentrated oxygen and feel the scent at the same time. Fragrance nanocapsules are packages of fragrance materials in nanocapsules. When a shock is applied to the nanocapsule, the capsule is broken and the fragrance inside the capsule can come out. Also, the user can smell the fragrance. The enriched oxygen will pressurize the second filter and the nanocapsules in the second filter may break under the force. The user can smell the fragrance while inhaling the oxygen. The fragrance nanocapsule may be an aroma fragrance. Users can relax their mind and body while smelling the aroma.

The massage device 100 may measure the number of steps, heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, or electrocardiogram of the user by using a sensor. The massage device 100 may determine an index related to the user's fatigue or stress index based on the number of steps, heart rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, or electrocardiogram of the user. For example, when the number of steps is high, it may be determined that the user's fatigue level is high. If the heart rate is high, it can be determined that the stress index is high.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may adjust the concentration of oxygen included in the concentrated oxygen based on the user's physical condition or massage mode. For example, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may store the amount of concentrated oxygen corresponding to the massage mode or the concentration value of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may provide the user with an amount or concentration of oxygen corresponding to a massage mode that the user is receiving. In addition, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may increase the amount of concentrated oxygen as the user's fatigue level and stress level increases. In addition, the oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may increase the concentration of oxygen in the concentrated oxygen as the user's fatigue level increases and the level of stress increases. Fatigue or stress index may have a proportional relationship with the amount of enriched oxygen or the concentration of concentrated oxygen.

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may obtain noise from the air supply unit 520 through a microphone. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may generate anti-phase waves of noise. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may offset the noise of the air supply unit 520 by controlling the speaker to output anti-phase waves. Therefore, the user can receive a massage in a comfortable state without feeling the noise generated by the air supply unit 520 .

The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may detect a situation where generation of oxygen is required or unnecessary. The oxygen generation control unit 1510 or the control unit 300 may control to increase or decrease the generation of oxygen.

The standard value of the concentration of fine dust or ultra-fine dust notified by the Ministry of Environment in accordance with environmental standards may be previously stored in the memory 330 or updated from an external device through the communication unit 320 at any time. The reference value of the concentration of fine dust or ultra fine dust may be directly input through the user input unit 2180 or the massage device control device 2200 . The fine dust forecast standard set by the Ministry of Environment notice is strengthened from 50 to 100 μg/㎥ to 36 to 75 μg/㎥ in the “bad” range as the upper concentration limit of “normal” is lowered from the current 50 μg/㎥ to 35 μg/㎥. , and the 'very bad' section starts from 76㎍/㎥. Therefore, the reference value of the fine dust concentration stored in the control unit is It may be updated from time to time. A step of supplying concentrated oxygen generated by the operated oxygen generator to the flow pipe may be included. A step of providing concentrated oxygen to the user through the flow pipe may be included. The massage device 100 may pass at least external air through at least one filter in the process of generating oxygen. The air supplied by the massage device 100 is air from which fine dust has been removed by a filter, and may be air having a high oxygen concentration.
