[0047] Therefore, the embodiments recorded in this specification and the structures shown in the accompanying drawings are merely the most preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not represent all the technical ideas of the present invention. Therefore, it should be understood that at the time of this application, there may be a variety of equivalent technical solutions and variations that can replace these.

[0048] In this specification, it should be understood that terms such as “including” or “having” are intended to indicate the presence of features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts or these combinations recorded in the specification, without excluding in advance the presence or additional possibilities of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts or these combinations.

[0049] Figure 1 This is a perspective view showing a massage device capable of adjusting the width direction pressing position according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2The cross-sectional view of a massage device with adjustable width direction pressing position according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The X direction is the length direction (the same direction as the direction of the user's spine), the Y direction is the width direction, which is divided into one side and the other side of the width direction with the user's spine as the center, and the Z direction is the height direction, which is the direction in which the pressing component rises or falls in order to adjust the degree of pressing on the user's body.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a massage device with adjustable width-direction pressing position according to one aspect of the present invention includes: a plurality of pressing components 110, arranged to respectively press one side and the other side of the width direction Y centered on the user's spine; and a spacing adjustment component 120, adjusting the width direction Y distance between the pressing components 110.

[0051] At this time, the pressing portion 100 may include a pressing member 110 .

[0052] The massage device may be arranged to be inserted into a pad supporting the user's body, and the massage device presses the user's body while moving along the length direction X in a state of being inserted into the pad.

[0053] The pad can be arranged on the main body supporting the user's upper body, and the main body can be connected to the auxiliary part supporting the user's lower body. At this time, the main body can be configured to support not only the user's upper body but also the buttocks, and the auxiliary part can be configured to support only the user's legs.

[0054] At this time, the pad may also be provided on the auxiliary portion that supports the lower body of the user, and the pad may also be configured to be provided on both the main body portion and the auxiliary portion.

[0055] The main body portion with the pad may be provided with a separate leg member so that the upper surface of the pad is spaced apart from the ground, so that the user can receive massage in a comfortable posture.

[0056] The leg member may be manufactured in an approximately square band shape. That is, the leg member may include a side frame corresponding to the side of the main body, a lower frame supported on the ground, and a connecting frame connecting the side frame and the lower frame. The frames may be manufactured in one piece, or may be manufactured separately and then combined. The side frame may be manufactured in a plate shape, and the lower frame may be manufactured in a rod shape.

[0057] A guide groove is formed in the main body, and a guide protrusion is formed in the auxiliary part to be inserted into the guide groove, so that the auxiliary part can slide. Alternatively, a guide groove can be formed in the auxiliary part, and a guide protrusion can be formed in the main body, so that the auxiliary part can slide.

[0058] like Figure 1As shown, the pressing component 110 may be provided with a separate heating component to provide a warm massage effect to the user. Since the pressing component 110 is arranged to press one side and the other side of the width direction Y centered on the user's spine, it presses the acupuncture points (e.g., the acupuncture points of the foot-sun bladder meridian) located on both sides along the user's spine to provide a massage effect.

[0059] At this time, the massage device may also include: a lifting part 200, which is provided with a lifting component 210 and a lifting drive component 220, the lifting component 210 causes the pressing component 110 to rise or fall, and the lifting drive component 220 provides a driving force for the lifting component 210; and a transfer part 300, which is provided with a transfer plate component 310 and a transfer drive component 320, the pressing component 110 and the lifting part 200 are arranged on the transfer plate component 310, and the transfer drive component 320 provides a driving force to move the transfer plate component 310 along the length direction X.

[0060] like Figure 2 As shown, the lifting component 210 may be a rack that causes the pressing component 110 to rise or fall, and the lifting drive component may be a drive motor for providing a driving force, and the drive motor may be provided with a pinion connected to a drive shaft. When the pinion rotates in one direction or another as the drive shaft rotates, the rack rises or falls.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, the transfer part 300 includes a plate-shaped transfer plate part 310 on which the pressing part 110 and the lifting part 200 are arranged, and a base rib may be provided at both ends of the transfer plate part 310 in the width direction Y. The base rib may be provided with a transfer drive part 320, and the transfer drive part 320 may be provided with a support roller and arranged to be movable along a guide rail arranged in the length direction X. In addition, the transfer drive part 320 may be provided with a separate transfer motor, and the transfer motor provides a driving force to move the support roller along the guide rail.

[0062] At this time, if Figure 1 As shown, the massage device may be provided with a spacing adjustment component 120, and the spacing adjustment component 120 adjusts the width direction Y distance between the pressing components 110. As described above, if the width direction Y distance of the pressing components 110 is configured to be adjustable, effective warm massage can be performed not only on portions with a wide width direction spacing such as the thoracic vertebrae or lumbar vertebrae, but also on portions with a narrow width direction spacing such as the cervical vertebrae, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0063] Figure 3 This is an enlarged front view showing a pressing member included in a massage device capable of adjusting a pressing position in a width direction according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4The present invention is a cross-sectional view of a pressing component included in a massage device capable of adjusting a pressing position in a width direction according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0064] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the massage device further includes a frame component 130 , which supports the pressing component 110 so that the pressing component 110 can rotate around a rotation axis a arranged along the width direction Y, and the spacing adjustment component 120 enables the frame component 130 to move in the width direction Y.

[0065] The frame member 130 may be provided with a pair of support arms to respectively support both sides of the pressing member 110 in the width direction Y, and a separate bushing is provided on the support arm so that the pressing member 110 can rotate around the rotation axis a. In this case, the support arm arranged on one side in the width direction Y may be formed integrally with the frame member 130, and the support arm arranged on the other side in the width direction Y may be configured to be detachable. When configured as above, the pressing member 110 can be easily arranged by first arranging the pressing member 110 on the support arm arranged on one side in the width direction Y while the support arm arranged on the other side in the width direction Y is removed, and then the support arm is coupled to the other side in the width direction Y of the pressing member 110.

[0066] In addition, since the gap adjusting member 120 is configured to move the frame member 130 in the width direction Y, the pressing member 110 can smoothly rotate and move in the width direction Y, thereby ensuring operational stability.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, the spacing adjustment member 120 may include a support shaft 122 connected to the rotating plate 121 and the frame member 130 and arranged at a position offset from the center c of the rotating plate 121. At this time, the support shaft 122 may also be configured to be arranged at the center c of the rotating plate 121.

[0068] That is, since the support shaft 122 connected to the frame part 130 is arranged at a position deviated from the center c of the rotating plate 121, when the rotating plate 121 rotates, the frame part 130 also moves in a circular trajectory. In order to smoothly rotate the rotating plate 121, a separate rotating shaft arranged in the height direction Z may be provided at the center c of the rotating plate 121. At this time, the circular trajectory of the frame part 130 moves not only in the length direction X but also in the width direction Y, so that effective warm massage can be performed not only on parts with a wide width spacing such as the thoracic vertebrae or lumbar vertebrae, but also on parts with a narrow width spacing such as the cervical vertebrae.

[0069] At this time, preferably, the support shaft 122 is connected to the inner side of the frame part 130 in the width direction Y. When configured as above, during the rotation of the rotating plate 121, the moving distance of the frame part 130 in the width direction Y increases, so that a wider part such as the thoracic vertebrae or the lumbar vertebrae can be effectively heated and massaged, and even if the frame part 130 moves inwardly in the width direction Y to perform a heating and massage on the cervical vertebrae, mutual interference can be effectively prevented.

[0070] Figure 5 for Figure 4 An enlarged cross-sectional view of part A.

[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, the massage device also includes a fastening component 140, which passes through the frame component 130 and is fixed to the support shaft 122. The frame component 130 is provided with a through hole 131 for the fastening component 140 to pass through. The inner surface of the through hole 131 and the outer surface of the fastening component 140 can be separated and arranged, and a gap d can be formed between the inner surface of the through hole 131 and the outer surface of the fastening component 140.

[0072] The frame member 130 can be stably fixed to the support shaft 122 by the fastening member 140. In addition, since the inner surface of the through hole 131 through which the fastening member 140 passes and the outer surface of the fastening member 140 are spaced apart from each other, even if the support shaft 122 rotates together with the rotating plate 121, the frame member 130 can relatively rotate, so the rotation axis a of the pressing member 110 can be constantly maintained parallel to the width direction Y, thereby enabling effective warm massage.

[0073] like Figure 5 As shown, the frame member 130 is provided with an extension guide 132 extending in a manner of surrounding the support shaft 122 , and the inner surface of the extension guide 132 and the outer surface of the support shaft 122 may be spaced apart from each other.

[0074] The extension guide 132 extends downward from the frame part 130 along the height direction Z to protect the joint part of the fastening part 140 and the support shaft 122. The inner surface of the extension guide 132 is separated from the outer surface of the support shaft 122, so that even if the support shaft 122 rotates together with the rotating plate 121, the extension guide 132 can also rotate relatively. Therefore, the rotation axis a of the pressing part 110 can be constantly maintained in a state parallel to the width direction Y, thereby enabling effective warm massage.

[0075] Figure 6 The present invention is a plan view showing an alignment member included in a massage device capable of adjusting a pressing position in a width direction according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0076] like Figure 6As shown, each pressing component 110 is provided with a finger pressing surface 111 to press the user at at least two positions along the width direction Y. The massage device may further include an alignment component 150 to keep the arrangement state of the finger pressing surface 111 constant.

[0077] That is, the pressing members 110 are respectively arranged on one side and the other side of the width direction Y centered on the spine of the user to press the acupuncture points located on both sides along the spine of the user. The acupressure surface 111 may be formed to extend along the circumference of the pressing member 110. When configured as above, even if the pressing member 110 moves along the length direction X and rotates around the rotation axis a while pressing the user's body, the user's body can be pressed continuously.

[0078] At this time, one of the above two or more positions may be an acupuncture point arranged about 4.5 cm from the user's spine (the second line of the spine, an acupuncture point for treating symptoms related to the body's intestinal tract), or may be an acupuncture point arranged about 9 cm from the user's spine (the third line of the spine, an acupuncture point for treating chronic symptoms related to the body's intestinal tract and treating mental symptoms). That is, in order for the pressing component 110 to press the above two or more acupuncture points simultaneously during the movement along the length direction X, it is important to keep the arrangement state of the acupressure surface 111 constant. As described above, when the alignment component 150 is provided, the arrangement state of the acupressure surface 111 can be kept constant, thereby improving the warm massage effect.

[0079] like Figure 6 As shown, the alignment member 150 can support the frame member 130 so that the arrangement state of the rotation axis a is kept constant. That is, since the alignment member 150 supports the frame member 130 and keeps the arrangement state of the rotation axis a constant, even if the pressing member 110 rotates smoothly and moves in the width direction Y, the arrangement state of the rotation axis a is kept constant, thereby ensuring the stability of the operation.

[0080] Figure 7 1 is a front view showing an alignment component included in a massage device capable of adjusting a width direction pressing position according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 8 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an alignment member included in a massage device capable of adjusting a pressing position in a width direction according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0081] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the alignment component 150 may include: a first support frame 151, connected to the frame component 130 arranged on one side of the width direction Y; a second support frame 152, connected to the frame component 130 arranged on the other side of the width direction Y; and a sliding rod 153, providing a path so that the first support frame 151 and the second support frame 152 move along the width direction Y.

[0082] The first supporting frame 151 and the second supporting frame 152 may be integrally formed with the frame member 130 , but are not necessarily limited thereto, and the first supporting frame 151 and the second supporting frame 152 may also be separately manufactured and then fastened to the frame member 130 .

[0083] In addition, the sliding rod 153 is formed to extend along the width direction Y to provide a path for the first support frame 151 and the second support frame 152 to move along the width direction Y, so that even if the pressing component 110 adjusts the spacing while moving in a circular trajectory, the state of the rotation axis a of the pressing component 110 arranged along the width direction Y can be kept constant.

[0084] like Figure 8 As shown, one side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y is fixed to the first supporting frame 151 , and the other side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y is arranged to be slidable while passing through the second supporting frame 152 .

[0085] That is, the sliding rod 153 is fixed to the first support frame 151 along one side in the width direction Y, so that the sliding rod 153 can be prevented from being randomly separated. A separate fastening member such as a screw can be used to fix one side in the width direction Y of the sliding rod 153. At this time, the other side in the width direction Y of the sliding rod 153 is arranged to be able to slide and move while passing through the second support frame 152. It is important that the length of the sliding rod 153 is sufficient so that the other side of the sliding rod 153 can be kept passing through the second support frame 152 even when the interval between the pressing members 110 in the width direction Y is the largest.

[0086] like Figure 8 As shown, the first support frame 151 includes a first support shell 151a, inside which a first connecting rod 151b integrally formed with the frame component 130 is arranged, and one side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y can be fixed to the first connecting rod 151b.

[0087] That is, when the frame part 130 is integrally formed with the first connecting rod 151b arranged inside the first supporting shell 151a, one side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y is fixed to the first connecting rod 151b, so even if the pressing part 110 moves along the width direction Y, stable fixation can be achieved.

[0088] like Figure 8 As shown, the second support frame 152 includes a second support shell 152a, inside which a second connecting rod 152b formed integrally with the frame component 130 is arranged, and the other side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y can be slidably connected to the second connecting rod 152b.

[0089] That is, when the frame part 130 is integrally formed with the second connecting rod 152b arranged inside the second supporting shell 152a, the other side of the sliding rod 153 in the width direction Y can be slidably connected to the second connecting rod 152b, so that stable sliding movement can also be achieved when the pressing part 110 moves along the width direction Y.

[0090] like Figure 8 As shown, the second supporting frame 152 may further include a sliding frame 152 c which is arranged inside the second connecting rod 152 b and supports the sliding rod 153 so that the sliding rod 153 can slide and move, and has a guide surface 152 c 1 extending along the width direction Y of the sliding rod 153 .

[0091] As described above, when the slide frame 152c is provided with the guide surface 152c1 extending in the width direction Y of the slide rod 153, not only the slide rod 153 can be slidably moved, but also the alignment state of the rotation axis a of the pressing member 110 can be stably maintained.

[0092] like Figure 8 As shown, the sliding frame 152c may be provided with an extended guide surface 152c2 extending from the guide surface 152c1 to support the sliding rod 153 outside the second supporting housing 152a.

[0093] As described above, the sliding frame 152c is provided with a guide surface 152c1 extending along the width direction Y of the sliding rod 153, and the above-mentioned sliding frame 152c is provided with an extended guide surface 152c2 extending from the guide surface 152c1 so that when the sliding rod 153 is supported outside the second supporting shell 152a, the arrangement state of the rotation axis a of the pressing component 110 can be more stably maintained.

[0094] Fig. 9 1 is a perspective view showing a massage device with adjustable width direction pressing position according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0095] like Fig. 9As shown, a first support member 133 for supporting the user's body is provided inside the frame member 130 in the width direction Y. As the frame member 130 moves outward in the width direction Y, when the distance between the frame members 130 increases, the user's body, especially the neck, may slip out from between the frame members 130. In this state, if the distance between the frame members 130 decreases again, the user's body may feel pain due to the compression of the frame members 130. Therefore, as described above, when the first support member 133 for supporting the user's body is provided inside the frame member 130 in the width direction Y, even if the distance between the frame members 130 increases, the user's body can be prevented from slipping out, and even if the spacing between the frame members 130 is adjusted, the user's body can be effectively prevented from being compressed and causing pain.

[0096] As an example, the first supporting member 133 may be made of a synthetic resin material such as rubber, but is not necessarily limited thereto, and any material may be used as long as it can fix the height direction Z position to prevent the user's body from slipping out.

[0097] Fig.10 A perspective view showing a massage device capable of adjusting the pressing position in the width direction according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0098] like Fig.10 As shown, an auxiliary pressing component 180 for pressing the user's body is provided on the inner side of the frame component 130 in the width direction Y. In the process of reducing the spacing of the frame component 130 in the width direction Y, the auxiliary pressing component 180 can perform massage by additionally pressing the user's body, especially the neck. As an example, the auxiliary pressing component 180 can have a hemispherical shape, but is not necessarily limited to this. As long as it has a curved shape so that it can press the user's body in the process of reducing the spacing of the frame component 130 in the width direction Y, any shape can be adopted. The above-mentioned auxiliary pressing component 180 can be made not only of foam material, but also of material that can perform finger pressure.

[0099] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the pressing component 110 includes a first finger pressing component 110' and a second finger pressing component 110" arranged in sequence along the length direction X. The width direction Y distance of the first finger pressing component 110' is adjusted by the spacing adjustment component 120, and the width direction Y distance of the second finger pressing component 110" can be fixed.

[0100] As described above, when the first acupressure component 110' whose distance in the width direction Y is adjusted by the spacing adjustment component 120 and the second acupressure component 110" whose distance in the width direction Y is fixed are arranged sequentially in the length direction X, the first acupressure component 110' can be used to perform a warm massage on the cervical vertebrae while the second acupressure component 110" can be used to perform a warm massage on the thoracic vertebrae, thereby achieving effective warm massage.

[0101] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the massage device further includes a pressing plate component 160 for arranging the pressing component 110 , and the pressing plate component 160 may include: a first unit plate 161 , on which a first finger pressing member 110 ′ is arranged; and a second unit plate 162 , on which a second finger pressing member 110 ″ is arranged and fixed to the first unit plate 161 .

[0102] As described above, in a state where the pressing member 110 is arranged on the pressing plate member 160 and the lifting part 200 is connected to the bottom of the pressing plate member 160, when the pressing plate member 160 is raised or lowered, the pressing plate member 160 can be raised or lowered stably, and the lifting part 200 can also be simply connected to the pressing plate member 160.

[0103] In addition, the first finger pressure member 110' is modularized by setting it on the first unit plate 161, and the second finger pressure member 110" is modularized by setting it on the second unit plate 162, and then the first unit plate 161 and the second unit plate 162 are fixed, and the manufacturing efficiency is improved by configuring in the above manner.

[0104] like Figure 1 As shown, the massage device may further include a hinge component 170 that hinges and fixes the pressing plate component 160 at the rear in the length direction X. In this case, the hinge component 170 may be disposed on the transfer part 300.

[0105] As described above, the rear of the pressing plate member 160 on which the pressing member 110 is arranged in the longitudinal direction X is hinged and fixed by the hinge member 170. That is, when the pressing plate member 160 is raised by the action of the lifting unit 200, the pressing plate member 110 is raised, and the pressing plate member 160 is in a hinged and fixed state, so the pressing member 110 is raised while moving in an arc, so that a combination of the effect of pressing in the height direction Z and the effect of pushing in the longitudinal direction X can be provided, so as to improve the warm massage effect. At this time, in a state where the first acupressure piece 110' is arranged on the first unit plate 161 and the second acupressure piece 110" is arranged on the second unit plate 162, the rear of the second unit plate 162 in the length direction X can be hinged and fixed by the hinge component 170. That is, when at least one of the first unit plate 161 and the second unit plate 162 rises due to the action of the lifting part 200, the first acupressure piece 110' and the second acupressure piece 110" rise, and the second unit plate 162 is in a hinged and fixed state, so the first acupressure piece 110' and the second acupressure piece 110" rise while moving in a circular arc, thereby providing a combination of the effect of pressing in the height direction Z and the effect of pushing in the length direction X, so as to improve the warm massage effect.

[0106] Alternatively, the hinge member 170 may include a first hinge member that hinges and fixes the first unit plate 161 at the rear of the length direction X and a second hinge member that fixes the second unit plate 162 at the rear of the length direction X. The first unit plate 161 and the second unit plate 162 are configured to be able to rise or fall independently of each other. That is, the configuration is such that only the first unit plate 161 rises or falls, only the second unit plate 162 rises or falls, or the first unit plate 161 and the second unit plate 162 rise or fall simultaneously.

[0107] At this time, the lifting part 200 may include a first lifting part that causes the first unit plate 161 to rise or fall, and a second lifting part that causes the second unit plate 162 to rise or fall. That is, when the first unit plate 161 rises by the action of the first lifting part, the first finger-pressing member 110' rises, and the first unit plate 161 is in a hinged fixed state, so the first finger-pressing member 110' rises while moving in an arc, thereby providing a combination of the effect of pressing in the height direction Z and the effect of pushing in the length direction X, so as to improve the warm massage effect. In addition, when the second unit plate 162 rises by the action of the second lifting part, the second finger-pressing member 110" rises, and the second unit plate 162 is in a hinged fixed state, so the second finger-pressing member 110" rises while moving in an arc, thereby providing a combination of the effect of pressing in the height direction Z and the effect of pushing in the length direction X, so as to improve the warm massage effect. In addition, various warm massage effects can be provided by the independent rising or falling movements of the first finger-pressing member 110' and the second finger-pressing member 110".

[0108] like Fig. 9 As shown, the first unit plate 161 may be provided with a second support member 161a for supporting the user's body. As the frame members 130 move outward along the width direction Y, when the distance between the frame members 130 increases, the user's body, especially the back of the head, may come out from between the frame members 130. In this state, if the distance between the frame members 130 decreases again, the user's body may feel pain due to the compression of the frame members 130. Therefore, as described above, when the second support member 161a for supporting the user's body is provided on the first unit plate 161, even if the distance between the frame members 130 increases, the user's body can be prevented from coming out, and even if the spacing between the frame members 130 is adjusted, the user's body can be effectively prevented from being compressed and causing pain. In addition, when the user's body is supported by the second support member 161a, the user's body height remains constant, so that the warm massage position can be kept constant. In addition, by preventing the first unit plate 161 from being impacted when the user's body comes out, the motor located at the bottom of the first unit plate 161 can be effectively protected.

[0109] As an example, the second supporting member 161a may be made of a synthetic resin material such as rubber, but is not necessarily limited thereto, and any material may be used as long as it can fix the height direction Z position to prevent the user's body from slipping out.

[0110] like Fig. 9 As shown, the first unit plate 161 may be provided with a curved surface 161b having a certain curvature to support the user's body. When the frame part 130 moves outward along the width direction Y and the distance between the frame parts 130 increases, the user's body, especially the back of the neck or head, may contact the end of the first unit plate 161. As described above, when the first unit plate 161 is provided with a curved surface 161b having a certain curvature to support the user's body, even if the user's body contacts the first unit plate 161, it can effectively prevent the user from feeling pain or foreign body sensation.

[0111] like Figure 1 As shown, the massage device may further include: a detection unit 400 for detecting the width direction Y position of the pressing member 110 ; and a control unit 500 for controlling the operation of the spacing adjustment member 120 based on a signal sent from the detection unit 400 .

[0112] In order to effectively perform warm massage on the user's body, it is necessary to adjust the width direction Y distance of the pressing component 110 at intervals corresponding to parts such as the cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae. As described above, when the width direction Y position of the pressing component 110 is detected by the detection unit 400 and the control unit 500 controls the action of the spacing adjustment component 120 based on the signal sent from the detection unit 400, an effective warm massage suitable for each part can be achieved.

[0113] As an example, the detection unit 400 may use a Hall sensor to measure the rotation angle of the rotating plate 121 , but is not limited thereto, and any configuration may be used as long as the widthwise Y position of the pressing member 110 can be detected by measuring the rotation angle of the rotating plate 121 .

[0114] As described above, the massage device with adjustable width-direction pressing position according to an embodiment of the present invention can adjust the width-direction Y distance of the pressing component 110 through the spacing adjustment component 120, so that not only can effective warm massage be performed on parts with wider width-direction spacing such as the thoracic vertebrae or lumbar vertebrae, but also can effectively warm massage on parts with narrow width-direction spacing such as the cervical vertebrae, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0115] As described above, one embodiment of the present invention is described, but the subject matter of the present invention is not limited to the embodiment presented in this specification. A person skilled in the art can easily propose other embodiments within the scope of the same subject matter by adding, modifying, deleting, increasing, etc. the constituent elements, and these belong to the scope of the subject matter of the present invention.
