Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of massage equipment, and in particular to a muscle massage equipment used for rehabilitation treatment of the elderly. Background Art

[0002] Muscle rehabilitation therapy for the elderly is a comprehensive process. With age, the muscle strength of the elderly will gradually decline. Rehabilitation therapy can improve muscle strength and enhance muscle contraction ability. Muscle rehabilitation massage is mainly based on the physiological structure of the human body and the principle of muscle function recovery. Through manual stimulation, it can promote muscle blood circulation and accelerate the excretion of metabolic waste (such as lactic acid). When muscles are injured or dysfunctional, massage can dilate local blood vessels, allowing more oxygen and nutrients (such as glucose, amino acids, etc.) to be delivered to muscle cells, providing favorable conditions for muscle repair and regeneration. At the same time, massage can also relieve muscle tension and spasms, reduce the transmission of pain signals, and improve muscle elasticity and flexibility;

[0003] The invention patent with application number 202111011995.8 discloses a muscle massage device for rehabilitation treatment of the elderly. The driving device drives the knocking plate to move up and down along the massage groove. When the knocking plate moves upward, it can squeeze the massage pad and the heating pad and perform knocking massage on the leg muscles of the elderly through the massage pad and the heating pad. The knocking plate does not directly contact the elderly, which can reduce the impact force on the leg muscles of the elderly. At the same time, through the heating function of the heating pad, when the massage pad contacts the elderly, the surface temperature of the massage pad can be kept normal to prevent the elderly from being damaged by the massage. The surface temperature of the massage pad is low and the leg muscles of the elderly are frostbitten. The massage pad is heated by the heating pad. When the massage pad contacts the elderly's legs, the heat can be transferred to the elderly, thereby accelerating the blood flow rate of the elderly's leg blood vessels, which is helpful for the elderly's physical recovery. By setting a fixing belt, a sub-velcro, a mother Velcro, an air bag, an air inlet pipe, an air pump, and an air outlet, the elderly's legs are wrapped up by the fixing belt, and then the air bag is inflated by the air pump, which can fix the elderly's legs and the leg support board to prevent the elderly's legs from shaking during the massage, and can ensure the massage effect;

[0004] However, the muscle massage device used for the rehabilitation treatment of the elderly needs to be moved to sit on the mobile seat body when performing rehabilitation massage on the elderly, which is difficult for the elderly who need muscle rehabilitation treatment. Professional caregivers are required to assist in carrying the device and the handles will affect the normal carrying work, making the device less convenient. The airbag and massage pad in the muscle massage device used for the rehabilitation treatment of the elderly can only perform rehabilitation massage on the calf muscles, and the massage range is small and cannot be adjusted according to the body shape of the elderly. Therefore, the present invention proposes a muscle massage device used for the rehabilitation treatment of the elderly to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0019] In order to deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with examples. The examples are only used to explain the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] Rehabilitation massage is a therapeutic technique that combines rehabilitation medicine theory with massage techniques. It plays an important role in promoting the recovery of body functions and relieving pain. Different people have different tolerances to massage. For example, the bones and muscles of the elderly are relatively fragile, so the intensity of the massage should be appropriately reduced; young people or athletes may need a relatively strong massage intensity to achieve better results. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider whether the patient has skin damage, unhealed fractures, etc. In these cases, massage is generally not suitable. When performing rehabilitation massage on the elderly, for those who can move on their own, you can guide the elderly to slowly move to the flatbed. If the elderly cannot move on their own, the movers need to move the elderly to the flatbed. Improper operation can easily cause harm to the elderly.
