Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the above-mentioned chair-type massage machine as a swinging device, the foot receiving member is arranged so that the toe side is positioned upward relative to the horizontal during the swinging motion, and the user's knees are stretched, and the calf muscles are likely to be in a tense state. state
Moreover, the bending of the user's hip joint is insufficient, and the inner thigh is likely to be in a state of being in contact with the seat surface of the seat portion on which the user sits.
Therefore, it may not be possible to satisfactorily impart the effect of relaxing the body due to the swinging motion of the massage machine to the user's legs.
[0005] Moreover, in the above-mentioned chair-type massage machine, even when the foot rest member is arranged in a horizontal posture, when the foot rest member is arranged at a position higher than an appropriate position according to the user's leg length, it is easy to use. Patient's knees stretched, calf muscles tense
Moreover, the bending of the user's hip joint is insufficient, and the inner thigh is likely to be in a state of being in contact with the seat surface of the seat portion on which the user sits.
Therefore, it may not be possible to satisfactorily impart the effect of relaxing the body due to the swinging motion of the massage machine to the user's legs.

Abstract

The invention provides a swing device which can enable a body to relax by swinging legs of a user. The swing device (10) comprises a seat part (12) which is used for supporting a buttock of a user, a leg supporting part (19) which is used for supporting a support face (19a) of the leg, a swing part (40) which is used for enabling the support part to swing from left to right along the seat part. The leg supporting part (19) comprises a position adjusting mechanism (18, 31) which is used for changing the position of the support face with respect to the seat part. The position adjusting mechanism (18, 31) changes the position of the support face when the leg supporting part conducts swing movement, and thereby the support face is in a rising state, higher than the seat part. The support face (19a) is in a non-uphill state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an oscillating device for relaxing the body. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a chair-type massage machine is known as a swing device capable of performing a body-relaxing massage operation on a user in a seated state (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). The chair-type massage machine of this Patent Document 1 includes a footstool on which a user's legs can be placed, and a foot support member capable of swinging left and right for supporting both ankles of a user is provided on the footstool. Then, along with the reciprocating movement of the foot supporting member in the left and right direction, both legs of the user swing around the waist of the user, so that the tense state of the legs of the user can be relieved. [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-328262 [0004] However, in the above-mentioned chair-type massage machine as a swinging device, the foot rece...
