Description

Massage Apparatus {Massage Apparatus}

The present invention relates to a massage device.

Modern people work 1/3 of the time or more. When working, most people maintain a rigid posture or change in posture very insignificantly, so blood circulation is not good and certain muscles are prone to aggregation. Getting adequate rest is important for good health. However, in addition to simply taking a break, if you do enough stretching to relax your muscles and improve blood circulation, or if exercise is not performed in parallel, fatigue tends to accumulate and blood circulation is poor.

In order to reduce the fatigue of modern people, many massage devices such as a foot massage device or a massage chair are being developed. Among massage devices, a chair-shaped massage device allows a user to sit and receive a massage.

The massage device in the form of a chair has a coupling relationship or is constrained to each other so that the back supporting part and the buttock supporting part can rotate together, so that the posture of the massage device can be changed through a single driving unit such as an actuator. Accordingly, the user can receive a massage in a more comfortable position than simply sitting in a chair.

However, since the part supporting the buttocks and the part supporting the back are combined, it may be difficult for the user to take a supine position. In other words, it is difficult to implement both the operation to take the shape of a chair and the operation to take the shape of a bed with a single massage device.

Furthermore, the user may simply use the massage device not only to feel comfortable and take a break using the massage device, but also to relax muscle relaxation and smooth blood circulation locally or throughout the body.

For this purpose, various operations can be made apart from using a massage unit such as a massage machine, and development of a massage device in which the body is seated at various angles is being developed.

Patent Document 1 relates to a massage device provided so that a user can receive a massage while in a supine position. However, it is provided so that the user can receive the massage only in a lying state.

Patent Document 2 relates to a massage device for a mattress. Patent Document 2 is provided so that the mattress is tilted using a rotating plate to massage the user and to minimize the discomfort to the body by operating the mattress to be positioned horizontally when not in use. However, Patent Document 2 also relates to a massage device used in the form of a mattress, and it is difficult to change to have a shape of a chair, so that various postures cannot be provided to the user.

Unlike the prior literatures, the apparatus for performing massage in various postures may differ from the conventional massage apparatus in various details such as not only the structure for changing the posture but also the part on which the user is seated.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The following detailed description is provided to provide a comprehensive understanding of the methods, apparatus, and/or systems described herein. However, this is only an example, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

In describing the embodiments of the present invention, if it is determined that the detailed description of the known technology related to the present invention may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, the terms to be described later are terms defined in consideration of functions in the present invention, which may vary according to intentions or customs of users and operators. Therefore, the definition should be made based on the content throughout this specification. The terminology used in the detailed description is for the purpose of describing embodiments of the present invention only, and should in no way be limiting. Unless explicitly used otherwise, expressions in the singular include the meaning of the plural. In this description, expressions such as “comprising” or “comprising” are intended to indicate certain features, numbers, steps, acts, elements, some or a combination thereof, one or more other than those described. It should not be construed to exclude the presence or possibility of other features, numbers, steps, acts, elements, or any part or combination thereof.

1 is a perspective view of a massage device according to the present embodiment. The massage device 100 according to the present embodiment may include a first seating part 4 , a second seating part 5 , and a third seating part 6 .

Prior to the description, the term “hip” as used herein will be described. The part of the body corresponding to the buttocks is subdivided into the lower part of the buttocks (or buttocks), the upper part of the buttocks, such as the buttocks, the buttocks and the buttocks, and is called variously. However, it may not be uniformly differentiated according to each name, and it may be difficult to generalize and explain it because it is difficult to clearly distinguish between the names due to individual differences. Therefore, in the present specification, the entire buttocks are expressed using the terms "hip" or "buttocks", and the above-mentioned separate names are expressed using expressions such as the lower side or upper side of the buttocks. Therefore, due to the term "hip" used in this specification, it should not be construed as being limited to the dictionary meaning of "hip", and includes the user's entire buttocks or, in some cases, the entire buttocks, including body parts adjacent to the buttocks. Clarify that it should be construed as a term.

The first seating part 4 may be a part on which the user's buttocks are seated. However, not only the hip part is seated on the first seat part 4 , but the thigh part including at least a part of the hip part may be seated on the first seat part 4 . That is, the first seating part 4 may correspond to a part on which the user sits among the massage apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, and may be one of the parts supporting the user's body.

An operating principle of the first seating part 4 will be described later.

The second seating part 5 may be a part on which the user's upper body is seated. However, this does not mean that the second seating part 5 only seats the user's upper body, and the upper side of the user's body part on which the first seating part 4 is seated may be seated on the second seating part 5 . . Therefore, the second seating part 5 can seat the upper body including the upper part of the buttocks. For example, although it may vary depending on the shape of the backrest of the chair, in general, when sitting in a chair, the upper side of the user's waist and hips may be supported by the backrest of the chair. That is, the lower side of the hip is supported by the first seating part 4 , and the upper body including at least a part of the hip is seated and supported on the second seating part 5 . However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and depending on the shape of the second seating part 5 , only the user's waist may be supported, and not only the waist part but also the neck part or the head part may be seated and supported.

The third seating part 6 may be a part on which the lower body of the user is seated. In detail, the third seating part 6 may be a part on which the lower body below the knee of the user is seated. Accordingly, the third seating part 6 may be a part on which the lower body including the user's feet and calves is seated. Although the body part to be seated on the third seat 6 is not limited to the user's feet and calves, it may be preferable that the portion below the knee be seated on the third seat 6 in consideration of the sitting posture.

A space may be formed in the third seating part 6 into which a portion of the user's body below the knee can be inserted. The space may be formed by opening the front of the third seating part 6 , and closing the front of the third seating part 6 so that the user's foot is inserted from the upper side to the lower side of the third seating part 6 . It may be formed as such. When the front of the third seating part 6 is open, the user's lower body can be easily seated, and when the front of the third seating part 6 is closed, it is possible to massage the shin or parts adjacent to the shin There may be advantages to

The body size varies from person to person. Accordingly, the length of the third seating part 6 may be adjusted so that the third seating part 6 can be conveniently used even if the length of the part to be seated is different.

The first seating part 4 , the second seating part 5 , and the third seating part 6 may support the user's body, respectively. Each seating unit may serve to not only support the body but also to massage each body part. In order to perform a massage, each seating unit may be provided with a massage unit M for performing a massage.

2 is a view of the operation mode of the massage device according to the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 2 , it is possible to determine the operable modes of the massage apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.

For a clear understanding of the invention in the drawings of the present specification, the first seating part 4, the second seating part 5, the third seating part 6 and the bases 1 and 2 to be described later are shown in the form of a frame. or simply illustrated.

The massage device 100 according to the present embodiment includes a first shaft 32 to which the first seating part 4 is rotatably connected and a support member 31 connected to the first shaft 32 to support the first shaft. ) may be included.

The first shaft 32 may be a rotation shaft of the first seating part 4 . The axis of rotation of the first seating part 4 does not mean that it must always rotate integrally with the first shaft 32 , but may mean that it rotates around the position of the first shaft 32 as an axis.

In addition, the support member 31 may also serve to support the load of the massage device 100 by supporting the first shaft 32 .

Figure 2 (a) is a view showing a first mode in which a separate operation is not made, Figure 2 (b) is a view showing a second mode in which the load applied to the user's waist can be relieved, Figure 2 (c) is a diagram illustrating a third mode in which the user can lie down.

2(a) shows a first mode (or base mode) in which a separate operation is not performed. The shape shown in Fig. 2 (a) may be a shape when the massage device 100 according to the present embodiment is de-energized. However, even if the massage device 100 is energized, the shape may not be changed immediately or the mode may not be changed. That is, an operation of massaging the body may be performed even in the first mode.

Hereinafter, in describing the angle and the rotation direction, a position or an operating direction will be described by setting an imaginary axis.

In detail, the virtual axis in the longitudinal direction of the massage device 100 among the directions horizontal to the ground is the x-axis, and the x-axis is perpendicular to the x-axis in the direction horizontal to the ground, and the virtual axis in the width direction of the massage device 100 is defined as the x-axis. As the y-axis, an imaginary axis perpendicular to both the x-axis and the y-axis is set as the z-axis. In this case, the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis may be virtual axes set to pass through the first shaft 32 .

In addition, in the x-axis, the direction to the side where the third seating part is located based on the center of the massage device 100 is "front", "front side", "front of massage chair" or "front side of massage chair", etc. It will be described using terms pointing to , and the direction to the side where the second seating part is located based on the center of the massage device 100 will be described using terms pointing to the back, such as “back” and “rear”.

In addition, one side of the parts partitioned based on the y-axis and the z-axis can be described in terms such as "the left or the left side of the massage chair", and the other side of the parts partitioned based on the y-axis and the z-axis is "massage chair" It can be described in terms such as “right or right side of”.

In addition, in the z-axis, the direction of the ground is described using terms that indicate a downward direction such as “down” and “bottom side”, and the direction toward the sky or the ceiling is a term indicating an upward direction such as “up” and “upside”. is explained using

In addition, in explaining the angle, it will be described with reference to the paper of the above-mentioned "in front of the massage chair". However, the angle is not necessarily described with reference to the ground in front of the massage chair, and the standard for angle description may vary as needed. For example, "A is positioned to form 10 degrees with the ground." Alternatively, the expression "A is positioned to form 10 degrees with the x-axis" means that A is positioned so that the angle A forms with the ground in front of the massage chair is 10 degrees, and the reference point is explicitly presented. In this case, the ground in front of the massage chair is not the standard, but the suggested reference point is the standard for explaining the angle. Furthermore, the angle in the present specification may mean the angle of the part on which the user's body is seated.

In the first mode, the first seating portion 4 may form a first angle A with the ground. The first angle A may satisfy a range of greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 15 degrees. Preferably, the first seating portion 4 may form about 10 degrees with the ground. However, it is not limited to the above-described range.

Forming the first angle A may assist so that the user's body can be naturally seated between the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 when the user is seated. In addition, it may serve to reduce the burden on the calves and feet below the knee by lifting the thigh.

In the first mode, the second seating portion 5 may be positioned to form an obtuse angle with respect to the first seating portion 4 . That is, the second seating part 5 may be positioned to form an obtuse angle with respect to the ground, and to have an angle forming an obtuse angle with respect to the first seating part 4 as well. That is, the second seating part 5 may have a shape inclined to the rear of the massage device 100 . The second seating part 5 may be positioned to form an angle of about 116 degrees to 120 degrees with respect to the first seating part 4 . Preferably it can be tilted about 118 degrees. However, the angle range for the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 is one embodiment and is not limited to the above-described angle range.

When the second seating part 5 is positioned to form an obtuse angle with respect to the first seating part 4 , the user can easily lean the upper body against the second seating part 5 . In addition, when the second seating part 5 is inclined, it is possible to better support the weight of the user's body than when the second seating part 5 is positioned at a right angle to the ground. In addition, since the second seating part 5 is inclined, it is possible to maximize the comfort felt by the user.

Figure 2 (b) is a view showing a second mode in which the load applied to the user's waist side of the massage device according to the present embodiment can be relieved. The second mode may be a mode in which the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 have a specific angle, and the weight is evenly distributed to support the user's body and to give the user a comfortable feeling as if he/she receives less gravity. have.

In addition, it may be a mode capable of minimizing the pressure applied to joints such as knees as well as the user's waist.

Accordingly, since the waist or joint is a part that supports the body during daily life, it is possible to reduce the burden on the waist or joints by using the massage device 100 according to the present embodiment, thereby providing comfort to the user.

In addition, the user's body is in close contact with the massage device 100, so that the massage effect by the operation of the massage unit may increase. In addition, if the heart is operated to be located lower than the lower body side, it can also exert a positive effect on blood circulation to relieve swelling of the body.

In the second mode, the first seating part 4 may be rotated using the first shaft 32 as a rotation axis. In the second mode, the first seating portion 4 may be positioned to rise higher than the first angle A to form a second angle B with the ground. The second angle B may be greater than the first angle A. The second angle B may be an angle having a range of greater than 15 degrees and less than or equal to 25 degrees with the ground. Preferably, the second angle B may be an angle forming about 20 degrees with the ground. However, the present invention is not limited thereto.

Even in the second mode, the second seating portion 5 may be positioned to form an obtuse angle with respect to the first seating portion 4 . That is, when the massage apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment is switched from the first mode to the second mode, the second seating part 5 may be rotated using the support member 31 as a rotation axis. The second seating part 5 may be more inclined to the rear of the massage device 100 . In this case, the second seating part 5 may be positioned to have a range of 120 to 136 degrees with respect to the first seating part 4 . Preferably, the second seating part 5 may be positioned to have an angle of about 123 degrees with the first seating part 4 . However, the above-described range is only an example and is not limited to the above-described range.

The second mode of the massage device 100 may mean a mode in which a body load is appropriately distributed. Therefore, the angle formed by the first seating portion 4 with the ground and the angle formed by the second seating portion 5 with the first seating portion 4 are not clearly defined, and may be performed in several steps depending on the degree of the angle. It may be formed separately. For example, in the second mode, such as the second mode 1 and the second mode 2, it is divided into several modes so that the angle can be appropriately adjusted according to the user's request.

Figure 2 (c) is a view showing a third mode (or 180 degrees reclining mode) in which the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 form 180 degrees.

In order to become the third mode, it may be preferable that the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 are formed to be able to rotate separately. When the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 are formed so that the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 restrain each other in order to maintain the shape of the chair, one actuator, etc. Although there is an advantage of being able to change the mode by using the , it may be difficult to implement the third mode as shown in the present embodiment.

Rotation of the first and second seating parts 4 and 5 may mean rotation from the x-axis to the z-axis or rotation from the z-axis to the x-axis. That is, the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 may be rotated using the support member 31 as a rotation axis.

For example, when the first seating part 4 is positioned to form a first angle A with the ground in the first mode and is switched to the second mode, in the x-axis to form a second angle B with the ground. It can be rotated towards the z-axis.

Conversely, when the first seating part 4 is switched from the second mode to the first mode, it is positioned to form a second angle B and rotates from the z-axis to the x-axis to form a first angle A with the ground. can

In addition, when the second seating part 5 is positioned to form an obtuse angle with the first seating part 4 in the first mode and is switched to the second mode, it rotates from the z-axis to the x-axis so as to be more inclined to the rear of the massage chair. can be Conversely, the second seating part 5 may be rotated from the x-axis to the z-axis when the second mode is switched to the first mode.

Accordingly, the rotation of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 separately or independently means that the rotation of the first seating part 4 does not affect the rotation of the second seating part 5 . This may mean that the rotation of the second seating part 5 does not affect the rotation of the first seating part 4 .

That is, the rotation of both the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 as the mode is changed means that each of the seating parts is operated separately for the implementation of each mode. That is, the rotation of any one of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 does not affect the rotation of the other one of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 . Neither one rotation is performed in dependence on another rotation.

In order for the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 to be rotatable separately from each other, there is not necessarily a fastening relationship between the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 . However, when the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 are independently rotatable, there may be no difficulty when the massage device 100 is operated while switching between the first mode, the second mode and the third mode. have. The angle formed by the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 does not need to be exactly 180 degrees, and an angle close to 180 degrees may be formed within an error range.

Of course, in the massage apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, not only the posture is changed in the above-described three modes, but massage can be performed in each mode.

3 is a view showing the twisting operation of the massage device according to the present embodiment. When the massage device 100 is in the third mode, the massage device 100 may be capable of a twisting operation. As used herein, "twist" or "twisting" means that the first seating part 4 or the second seating part 5 rotates in a rotation direction perpendicular to the rotation direction when changing the above-described three modes. it could mean That is, "twist" or "twisting" may mean that the second seating part 5 is rotated to be inclined alternately to the left and right sides of the massage device 100 . That is, when one side of the second seating part 5 is rotated from the y-axis to the z-axis direction, the other side of the second seating part 5 is rotated from the z-axis direction to the y-axis direction, and the second seating part 5 ), when one side is rotated from the z-axis to the y-axis direction, the other side of the second seating part 5 may be rotated from the y-axis to the z-axis direction. That is, it means that both sides of the second seating part 5 are rotated to be inclined alternately with each other.

When the massage device 100 is capable of twisting, the user can stretch the upper body by twisting left and right when using the massage device 100 . Therefore, the massage device 100 according to this embodiment can also be performed by a massage machine, and can also be stretched by twisting the second seating part 5, so that it has a superior effect than conventional massage devices. can perform

4 is a view showing a stretching operation of the massage device according to the present embodiment.

The stretching operation of the massage device 100 according to the present embodiment may be an operation capable of stretching the body toward the ground based on the user's waist. In the present specification, the stretching operation does not exclude the stretching effect of the twisting operation or stretching the user's body only by the method to be described later, and may be a word selected for a concise and clear description of the invention.

For the stretching operation, the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 of the massage device 100 may be positioned to have an angle of 180 degrees or more. That is, unlike the twisting operation that can be stretched left and right around the user's body, the stretching operation may be an operation that can be stretched back and forth when describing the user's body as the center.

In detail, the second seating part 5 and the third seating part 6 may be lowered while forming 180 degrees with the ground, and the first seating part 4 may be positioned to be horizontal with the ground. can That is, the position of the first seating part 4 supporting the user's buttocks does not change in the third mode, but the second seating part 5 and the third seating part 6 descend toward the ground to stretch the user's body. can

In the stretching operation, the second seating part 5 may be rotated downwardly with respect to the support member 31 . In addition, separately from this, the third seating part 6 may be rotated downwardly based on the first seating part 4 and may be operated.

The rotation of the second seating part 5 and the rotation of the third seating part 6 may be performed independently. Accordingly, the rotation of the third seating part 6 is completed after the rotation of the second seating part 5 is completed, or the rotation of the second seating part 5 is completed after the rotation of the third seating part 6 is completed. Alternatively, the rotation of the second seating part 5 and the third seating part 6 may be performed at the same time. The angle at which the second seating part 5 and the third seating part 6 are rotated, the rotation start time and the rotation speed of the second seating part 5 and the third seating part 6, etc. can be adjusted by the user. have.

The first frame 11 may be a part that is provided on the installation surface to support the weight of the massage device 100 and the body of the user. The first frame 11 may directly contact the ground to support the load of the massage device 100, and a separate support member (not shown) is formed on the lower side of the first frame 11 to be supported through the support member. may be There is no limitation on the manner in which the first base 1 provides support.

The first base 1 may be provided with a base operation unit 13 . The base operation unit 13 may be a part that provides power for sliding the second base 2 . The base operation unit 13 of the massage device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a motor 131 , a cylinder 132 , and an exercise member 133 .

The motor 131 may provide power for sliding the second base 2 . The motor 131 may be formed to be connected to the first base 1 .

The motor 131 may be a hydraulic motor. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. A DC motor or the like may also be used.

The cylinder 132 and the movement member 133 below may be replaced with a separate configuration within a range that is easy for a person skilled in the art.

The cylinder 132 may be a part that is connected to the motor 131 and accommodates a motion member 233 to be described later. Also, it is connected to the first frame 11 and may serve to transmit power transmitted from the motor 231 to the motion member 133 .

The cylinder 232 may be connected to the cylinder coupling part 16 formed in the first base 1 . For example, as shown in the drawing, the cylinder coupling portion 16 is formed on the rear surface of the first frame 11 and the cylinder 132 is fitted to the cylinder coupling portion 16 to be screwed. This is only an example of the connection method of the cylinder 132 , and there is no limitation on the method in which the cylinder 132 is connected to the first base 1 .

The movement member 133 may be inserted into the cylinder 132 to transmit power to the second frame 21 . The moving member 133 may be a plunger or a piston. The moving member 133 may move forward or backward in the cylinder according to the hydraulic pressure transmitted from the motor 131 .

The moving member 133 may be connected to the second base 2 . For example, the moving member 133 may be connected to the operation connection part 25 of the second base 2 .

Accordingly, the second base 2 may slide according to the movement of the moving member 133 .

The second base 2 may include a second frame 21 , a frame wheel 24 and an actuating connection 25 .

The second frame 21 may be a frame of the second base 2 . The second frame 21 may be a portion connected to the first frame 11 to connect the second base 2 and the first base 1 . As the second frame 21 slides, the second base 2 may slide on the first base 1 .

The rotational degree of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 according to the sliding distance and the sliding distance of the second base 2 on the first base may be variously set according to the intention of the user or the manufacturer. can

For example, the first operation part 42 may be provided on the first seating part 4 and the second operation part may be provided on the second seating part 5 . In this case, the degree to which the first seating part 4 rotates according to the sliding distance of the second base 2 with respect to the first base 1 may be determined by electronic control of the first operation part 42 . . Similarly, the degree to which the second seating part 5 is rotated may be determined by electronic control of the second operation part 52 .

On the other hand, when only the second seating part 5 is provided with an electronically operated driving part, the first seating part 4 is dependent on the sliding distance of the second base 2 through a configuration such as a link (not shown). The first seating part 4 may be rotated.

As such, the degree of rotation of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 according to the sliding of the second base 2 may vary, and accordingly, the operation method of the massage device 100 may be changed.

The operation connection part 25 may be a part to which the second operation part 52 is connected. The second operation part 52 is a part that rotates the second seating part 5 . The angle of the first seating part 4 may be adjusted by rotation of the link according to the sliding of the second base 2 or the angle may be adjusted by the first operation part 42 .

The second operation part 52 may be connected to the second seating part frame 51 to rotate the second seating part 5 forward or backward of the massage device 100 .

The second operation unit 52 may have one side connected to the second mounting unit frame 51 and the other side connected to the second frame 21 . Although it is shown in the figure in the form of a bar connecting both sides of the second frame 21, the present invention is not limited thereto. The operation connection part 25 may be formed on the second frame 21 . That is, the shape of the operation connection part 25 may be appropriately changed according to the shape of the second frame 21 . The actuating connection part 25 is sufficient if it is formed to serve to connect the second actuating part 52 to the second frame 21 , and is not limited in shape.

The second operation part 52 may be controlled to properly rotate the second seating part 5 according to the sliding degree of the second base 2 .

The third operation part 62 may be a part that rotates the third seating part 6 in the z-axis direction. The third operation unit 62 may have one side connected to the third mounting unit frame 61 and the other side provided on the lower side of the first mounting unit frame 41 or the second frame 21 .

The part to which the other side of the third operation part 62 is connected can be appropriately changed by the user, and when it is connected on the second frame 21 , it can be connected together with the second operation part 52 to the operation connection part 25 . can

The operation connection part 25 may be formed to be curved upward or downward of the second frame 21 to form a space occupied by the second operation part 52 and the third operation part 62 being connected.

The frame wheel 24 may be formed on the lower side of the second frame 21 to assist in sliding when the second base 2 slides on the first frame 11 . The frame wheel 24 is in contact with the first base 1 and serves to reduce friction that may occur between the first base 1 and the second base 2 when the second base 2 slides. can

Since the frame wheel 24 may be provided in the form of a wheel, it can assist the sliding of the second base 2 and the first base 1 and the second base 2 while the second base 2 is sliding. It is possible to reduce noise that may occur in the liver, and to minimize wear of the first frame 11 and the second frame 21 .

In detail, if the first frame 11 and the second frame 21 are in direct contact with each other and slide, the noise may be increased due to the load applied to the second base 2 . In addition, it may be difficult to smoothly slide the second base 2 and the first base 1 because the second base 2 and the first base 1 are in close contact with the load transmitted to the second base 2 . Accordingly, the frame wheel 24 is provided on the lower side of the second frame 21 to assist the role of the support of the second base 2 , and to allow the second base 2 to slide smoothly.

The frame wheel 24 may be symmetrically provided on the lower side of the second frame 21 . In this case, in order to stably support the second frame 21 , it may be provided symmetrically on the front and rear surfaces of the second frame 21 , respectively. Accordingly, the second frame 21 can maintain the same height from the ground.

The support part 3 may include a support member 31 .

The support member 31 may be a part that supports the first shaft 32 . The support member 31 may be connected to the second base 2 .

Specifically, it may be connected to the second frame 21 that is the frame of the second base 2 . The support member 31 is movably connected to the second base 2 to be integrally slid with the second base 2 as the second base 2 slides.

The support member 31 may be formed in a curved surface. The support member 31 may slide integrally with the second base 2 . The reason why the support member 31 is formed in a curved surface is so that the portion supported by the base can occupy a larger size than that of the base.

Specifically, as the bases 1 and 2 increase, the installed area may increase. If the size of the base can be reduced, the installation area will also be reduced. However, the minimum size may be guaranteed to safely support the user's body.

In order to stably support the user's body, the sizes of the first and second seating units 4 and 5 may be greater than the widths of the bases 1 and 2 . Therefore, the support member 31 may be formed to have a curved surface in order to connect the seating parts and the base.

When the second operating unit 52 is connected to the second mounting unit frame 51 , the second operating unit 52 may be connected so that the second mounting unit 5 is not rotated to the left or right due to the operation of the second operating unit 52 . This is because it can be advantageous in providing support.

For example, the second seating part 5 is connected to the center or both sides of the second seating part frame 51 rather than being connected to one of both sides of the second frame 21 because the above-described twisting operation is possible. It may be desirable to be

Here, the “space formed by the second frame 21” does not simply mean a portion partitioned by the second frame 21, but includes up to the space above the portion partitioned by the second frame 21. could mean

The third seating part 6 may be rotatably connected to the second seating part 5 . The third seating part 6 may rotate based on the first seating part 4 by the third operation part 62 . In the first mode, the third seating part 6 may form about 90 degrees with the first seating part 4 . When the second mode is reached, the third seating part 6 may rise and contribute to evenly distributing the user's load. In the third mode, the third seating part 6 may form a 180 degree angle together with the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 .

The controller 9 may control the rotation angles of the first seating part 4 , the second seating part 5 , and the third seating part 6 according to a pre-input pattern or massage mode.

Specifically, the control unit 9 may adjust the angle between the first seating unit 4 and the ground according to the user's request. In addition, the angle between the second seating part 5 and the first seating part 4 can be adjusted. In addition, the angle between the third seating part 6 and the ground can be adjusted.

The control unit 9 may adjust the rotation angles of the first seating part 4 , the second seating part 5 , and the third seating part 6 independently of each other. However, in order to achieve the purpose of providing comfort to the user, the first seating part 4 , the second seating part 5 , and the third seating part 6 may be rotated at the same time.

That is, whether or not each of the seating parts is rotated may be independently determined, but the degree of rotation of each of the seating parts may be changed to provide convenience to the user. In addition, each of the seating parts may be rotated at the same time.

In other words, according to a mode change between the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode, the first seating part 4 , the second seating part 5 , and the third seating part 6 may be rotated at the same time.

In addition, when the third mode is changed, the angle of the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 may form 180 degrees. When the massage device 100 according to the present embodiment is disposed adjacent to the wall surface, the distance between the wall surface and the base may be smaller than the length of the second seating part 5 in order for the massage device to implement the third mode. have.

When the second base (2) slides on the first base (1), the support member (31) moves together with the second base (2), so that the length of the second mounting part (5) is greater than the length of the wall surface and the second base (2). Even if the distance of is provided, the third mode may be normally implemented.

When the massage apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment is executed in the third mode, a twisting operation may be possible.

The control unit 9 may operate the twisting unit 8 to perform a twisting operation according to a user's request. The twisting part 8 can be controlled by the control part 9 .

The operation of the elastic part 53 to be described later may also be controlled by the controller 9 .

The twisting part 8 may twist the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 .

The twisting part 8, which will form a predetermined angle between the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5, may be operated. This can be controlled by the control unit 9 .

Specifically, the twisting unit 8 may be operated when the first and second mounting units 4 and 5 form 180 degrees. Preferably, the twisting unit 8 can be operated when both the first and second mounting portions 4 and 5 are provided parallel to the ground.

Of course, the twisting part 8 may be operated even when the first seating part 4 and the second seating part 5 are at an angle exceeding 180 degrees. As described above, the twisting operation may also be performed during the stretching operation.

Specifically, the twisting unit 8 is positioned on one side of both sides in the width direction on the basis of the width direction of the second seating part auxiliary frame 512, and the other side is positioned at the lower side in the width direction. can In addition, on the contrary, one side of both sides based on the width direction of the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 may be positioned below the width direction, and the other side may be controlled to be positioned above the width direction.

The above operation is repeated and the user's body is twisted to give the user a stretching effect.

For example, when the twisting unit 8 rotates the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 , the width direction of the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 and the width of the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 . Based on a line perpendicular to the center of the direction, the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 may be rotated to be inclined by 20 degrees to 25 degrees to one side of both sides. Preferably it can be tilted by 22 degrees.

That is, the rotation angle of the twisting part 8 may be about 40 degrees to 50 degrees, preferably about 45 degrees.

10 is a side view of a second seating part according to another exemplary embodiment. In the following description, the same parts as those of the above-described embodiments will be omitted, and content different from the above-described embodiments will be described in detail. However, the same parts are not necessarily omitted, and there may be parts that are repeatedly described for a clear understanding of the embodiment.

The massage device 100 according to another embodiment may be provided such that the second seating part main frame 511 is twisted (rotated) together with the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 .

As described above, in FIG. 10 , the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 and the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 are illustrated as being separated from each other, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

In detail, as the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 is rotated, the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 is preferably provided to be connected to the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 . Therefore, the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 may be provided to be temporarily separated from the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123, but it is clearly not a configuration that operates separately at all as shown in FIG.

That is, the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 and the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 do not always have to maintain the coupling, but do not operate permanently separately.

According to another embodiment, the second seating part main frame 511 may also be detachably provided as shown in FIG. 10 .

The main frame support part 5113 may be provided to extend to the rear of the second seating part 5 . As described above, the rear of the second seating portion 5 may be a portion corresponding to the lower side with reference to FIG. 10 . This is because the front of the second seating part 5 corresponds to the part on which the user's body is seated, and the rear of the second seating part 5 means the opposite direction of the part on which the user's body is seated.

The main frame support part 5113 may be formed to extend from the main frame fixing part 511 - 2 toward the rear side of the second seating part 5 to be coupled to the twisting support part 5114 .

The main frame rotating unit 511-1 may have a size corresponding to that of the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 .

In detail, being provided with a size corresponding to the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 does not mean that the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 and the main frame rotating unit 511-1 are always provided to have the same length.

However, since the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 is connected to the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 and the main frame rotating unit 511-1 is connected to the main frame fixing unit 511-2, the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 is interlocking the auxiliary frame.

Furthermore, the twisting part 8 may be provided to be disposed on the outside of the second seating part 5 differently from the above-described embodiment.

Specifically, when the twisting part 8 is disposed in the space formed by the second seating part frame 51 as in the above-described embodiment, the length of the second seating part 5 is adjusted to the twisting part 8 . can be prevented from becoming excessively large.

On the other hand, when the twisting part 8 is disposed on the outside of the second seating part 5, there is an advantage in that the structural design of the massage device 100 having a complicated structure becomes easy. In addition, since the size of the space formed by the second seating part 5 is not limited, additional components may be added if necessary.

For example, when the rotation connection part 5111 is provided in the twisting part 8 as described above, the interference with other parts is reduced by arranging the twisting part 8 on the outside of the second seating part 5 . can

11 is a view showing the second seating portion and the seat portion of the massage device according to the present embodiment. Hereinafter, descriptions of the same parts as those described above will be omitted.

However, for a clear understanding of the invention

Referring to FIG. 11 , the massage device 100 according to the present embodiment may include a seat portion 55 .

The seat part 55 is coupled to the second seating part 5 and may be provided to be stretchable.

The seat part 55 may include a first seat part 551 and a second seat part 552 .

The first seat part 551 may be a part on which the user's body is seated.

The first seat part 551 may be made of leather or a material having a smooth surface. The first seat portion 551 is the first part of the massage device 100 that the user's body comes into contact with. Therefore, if it has a rough surface, it may easily give discomfort to the user.

The essential purpose of the massage device 100 is to provide a user with a sense of comfort. In order for the user to comfortably and comfortably use the massage device 100, the first seat portion 551 is preferably made of leather or a soft material.

Of course, it is not excluded that the first sheet portion 551 is made of a different material.

The first sheet portion 551 preferably has a size corresponding to that of the second seating portion 5 . The second seating part 5 may be made of a material having greater strength than the first seat part 551 . On the other hand, since the first seat part 551 is made of a soft material as described above, if there is no configuration like the first seat part 551 , the user may feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, it is preferable that the first sheet portion 551 has a size corresponding to the size of the second seating portion 5 .

Specifically, since the first sheet part 551 is provided to cover the second seating part 5, the length of the first sheet part 551 is slightly longer than the length of the second seating part 5, The width of the first sheet portion 551 may be slightly wider than the width of the second seating portion 5 .

Accordingly, the first seat part 551 is not limited to only the part where the user is seated among the second seating part 5 , but all parts of the second seating part 5 on which the user can be seated are the first seat. It is provided with the part 551 so that the user can comfortably use the massage device without feeling a sense of alienation even when the user changes his or her posture or moves the body while seated on the second seating part 5 .

The second sheet portion 552 may be provided on both sides of the first sheet portion 551 in the width direction.

The second seat part 552 may be a part connected to the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 so that the first seat part 551 is positioned on the front side of the second seat part 5 .

That is, the seat part 55 is provided to cover the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 . Specifically, the first seat part 551 is provided to cover the front surface of the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 , and the second seat part 552 surrounds the side surface of the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 . catalog is provided.

In this case, the second seat part 552 does not need to be provided to surround the entire side surface of the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 . The second seat part 552 may serve to maintain the first seat part 551 while covering the front surface of the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 . Therefore, the second seat part 552 may be provided to cover a part of the side surface of the second seat part auxiliary frame 512 .

At least a part of the second sheet part 552 may be provided to be stretchable. As described above, since the second seating part 5 is provided so that both sides can be rotated up and down based on the width direction of the second seating part 5, the sheet corresponds to the twisting operation of the second seating part 5. It is preferable that the part 55 is provided to be stretchable.

Of course, since the first sheet portion 551 may also be twisted as the twisting operation is performed, it is preferable to be provided with an elastic material. That is, the meaning that the second sheet part 552 is provided to be stretchable does not exclude that the first sheet part 551 is provided with a stretchable material.

In detail, both the first seat part 551 on which the user's body is seated and the second seat part 552 connected to the side surface of the first seat part 551 may be made of an elastic material. However, when the twisting operation is performed, the second sheet portion 552 may be significantly increased compared to the first sheet portion 551 . Therefore, it is preferable that the second sheet portion 552 has greater elasticity than the first sheet portion 551 .

The second sheet portion 552 may include a first region 552a, which is a region that is stretched and contracted according to the twisting operation, and a second region 552b that corresponds to the first region 552a and is not stretched. .

As described above, if the twisting operation occurs only in the second seating part auxiliary frame 512 of the second seating part 5, the second seat part 552 located near the auxiliary frame interlocking part 5123 is not stretched and contracted. it may not be

That is, the second sheet portion 552 does not need to be provided to be stretchable as a whole.

However, the degree of expansion and contraction may be reduced as the distance between the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 and the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 is increased.

Accordingly, in the second sheet portion 552 , the first region is not formed only in the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 , and the second region is not formed only in the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 . In addition, if the size formed by the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 is not excessively large, all of the second sheet portions 552 covering the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 may be the first region 552a.

In summary, in the drawings, only the first region 552a is shown in the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122, and only the second region 552b is present in the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123. The first region 552a and the second region 552b according to the size of the auxiliary frame rotating unit 5122 and the auxiliary frame interlocking unit 5123 or the material of the second sheet unit 552 are not limited as described above. may vary.
