[0005] However, in recent years, users have been making increasingly diverse demands.

[0006] For example, the chair-type massage machine described in Patent Document 1 is a large-scale device, and while it can massage the buttocks while the user is sitting in the chair, it is difficult to massage the user in other positions.

[0007] On the other hand, many "cushions that change shape to fit the user's body shape and posture," such as huggable pillows, are now on the market. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-190384 discloses a huggable futon that is filled with a quantity of stuffing that allows for easy movement, while leaving a space for play within the rod-shaped futon, allowing it to be folded as desired.

[0008] Such hugging pillows, hugging futons, and deformable cushions are extremely comfortable cushions because they can be deformed to fit the shape of the user's body.

[0009] By the way, users' needs regarding massage machines are diverse, and users are increasingly requesting that they be able to receive massages of their buttocks and other body parts in a comfortable position, relying on a body pillow, rather than having their buttocks massaged while sitting in a fixed chair (in other words, a hard massage chair) as with conventional chair-type massage machines.

[0010] Therefore, the present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems and market needs, and aims to provide a massage machine that allows a user to receive a massage in a variety of positions comfortably, rather than sitting in a fixed chair, and in particular a buttocks massage machine that can effectively massage the user's buttocks.

[0026] An embodiment of a buttocks massager 1 according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Figures 1 to 12 show the configuration and usage of the buttocks massager 1.

[0027] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a buttocks massager 1 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as massager 1) of the present invention.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 1, the massage machine 1 of the present invention comprises a cushion body 2, a band-shaped extension band 3 whose base end is connected to the upper edge of the cushion body 2 and extends from there, and a cover cushion 4 connected to the tip of the extension band 3.

[0029] The cushion body 2 is made up of a bag body 5 and the contents placed inside it, and has a roughly cubic shape. The cushion body 2 has a built-in massage mechanism 6 that applies pressure and massage to the lower legs C. Because the cushion body 2 contains beads as the contents, it has deformability that allows it to change shape to fit the body shape and posture of the user M.

[0030] First, the cushion body 2 has a cloth bag body 5. This bag body 5 is about 50 cm high, and the top and bottom surfaces are about 50 cm x 50 cm in size. As shown in Figure 1, the cushion body 2 is cubic in shape, and a user M can place their buttocks D on the top surface and sit down. Hereinafter, the front side of the cushion body 2 will be referred to as the "F side" and the rear side as the "B side," and the F side and B side are illustrated in Figures 2 and 3.

[0031] The bag 5 has a structure in which some space remains inside and the beads, which are the contents, are placed inside. The bag 5 is made by sewing together square pieces of cloth into a bag shape. Various materials can be used for the bag 5, but plastic sheeting, cotton broadcloth, etc. can be used. It is preferable that the material for the bag 5 is stretchable, but it does not have to be stretchable.

[0032] Various types of beads can be envisioned for use in the bag 5. Suitable examples include buckwheat husks, rice husks, grains, wooden or cork granules, polystyrene foam granules, polyethylene granules, and granular pipes, all of which have a diameter of approximately several millimeters to several centimeters. Other suitable materials include small ball-shaped cotton, birch, silk, wool, polyester cotton, acrylic cotton, and synthetic resin or rubber sponges.

[0033] The amount of beads enclosed in the bag body 5 is 50 to 90% of the total volume of the bag body 5, and some space is intentionally left in the bag body 5 so that the beads can easily move within the bag body 5. Due to this configuration, the cushion body 2 can freely change its shape.

[0034] The cushion body 2 may be a hollow body made of vinyl chloride material filled with a liquid (fluid) such as water. If the fluid inside can move spatially, the bag body 5 can be freely deformed to conform to the posture and body shape of the user M. The shape, size, material, and contents (bag body 5, contents, etc.) of the cushion body 2 can be changed as appropriate. A pair of openings 7 are formed in the left and right direction on the front side (the side closer to surface B) of the upper surface of the cushion body 2. These openings 7 are large enough to allow the lower limbs C of the user M to be inserted into each opening. A slit is formed in surface B of the cushion body 2 extending downward from the openings 7. A fastener 8 is attached to the slit to close the slit (see Figure 9).

[0035] That is, a pair of fasteners 8 are attached to the left and right sides of surface B of the cushion body 2, with the upper end of each fastener 8 connecting to the opening 7 and the lower end of each fastener 8 extending to near the bottom surface of the cushion body 2.

[0036] By opening this fastener 8 from top to bottom, the opening 7 and slit on the top surface of the cushion body 2 are greatly enlarged, making it easier to insert the lower limb C into the enlarged space of the opening 7. The fastener 8 may be a wire fastener or a hook-and-loop fastener, and by lowering this fastener 8, the opening 7 and the slit following it are opened, making it easier to insert the lower limb C into the cylindrical body 9 (details will be described later). By raising this fastener 8, the slit is closed, and the lower limb C inserted into the cylindrical body 9 can be securely fixed.

[0037] The opening 7, into which the lower limb C can be inserted, communicates downward with the interior of the cushion body 2 and is bent forward at the bottom inside the cushion body 2 to fit the inserted lower limb C of the user M. In other words, it has a boot-like shape in side view. A massage mechanism 6 that massages the lower limb C of the user M is disposed along the space of this boot-like shape.

[0038] As for the massage mechanism 6 present in the cushion body 2, various massage mechanisms 6 can be employed, and examples of the massage mechanism 6 are given below.

[0039] As described above, a pair of openings 7 for inserting the left and right lower legs C are formed on the front side (side B) of the upper surface of the cushion body 2, and a cylindrical body 9 extends from the openings 7. Specifically, the cylindrical body 9 is composed of a vertical cylindrical body 10 extending downward inside the cushion body 2 and a horizontal cylindrical body 11 extending forward (side F) from the tip of the vertical cylindrical body 10. The tip of the horizontal cylindrical body 11 is closed, and the vertical cylindrical body 10 and the horizontal cylindrical body 11 form an L-shaped (boot) lower leg insertion space.

[0040] The rear side (side B) of the vertical cylinder 10 has a slit running in the vertical direction, and by lowering a fastener 8 provided in the slit, it can be opened rearward, allowing the lower leg C to be inserted into the cylinder 9. In addition, by raising the fastener 8, the rear side of the vertical cylinder 10 can be closed. In other words, by raising and lowering the fastener 8, the lower leg C can be inserted and removed from the cylinder 9. The length of the slit (zipper 8) is approximately the same as the length of the vertical cylinder 10.

[0041] A plurality of airbags 12 to 14 are arranged on the outer periphery of the cylindrical body 9, and the lower legs C of the user M can be massaged using the airbags 12 to 14.

[0042] The horizontal cylinder 11 of this cylinder 9 covers the instep to the toes, and the vertical cylinder 10 covers the heel to the calf. Beads are placed inside the cushion body 2 around the cylinder 9 (the vertical cylinder 10 and horizontal cylinder 11).

[0043] The outer peripheral surface of such a cylinder 9 is provided with a plurality of airbags 12 to 14 that apply pressure and massage to the lower legs C. More specifically, a first airbag 12 is provided on the upper surface of the horizontal cylinder 11, a pair of second airbags 13 are provided on the lower surface of the vertical cylinder 10, and a pair of third airbags 14 are provided on the upper surface of the vertical cylinder 10.

[0044] First, the first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 are plastic bags that are formed to be able to store pressurized air from a pump disposed inside the cushion body 2, and are formed to be freely inflatable and deflatable. Examples of the shape of the first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 include a "rectangular bag" and an "oval bag." Note that the shape of the first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 is not particularly limited as long as it can provide a pressure massage to the lower legs C.

[0045] The first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 can be inflated and deflated independently of each other. For example, when applying pressure to massage only the instep, only the first airbag 12 can be inflated and deflated, and when applying pressure to massage the heel and calf, the second airbag 13 and the third airbag 14 can be inflated and deflated.

[0046] Furthermore, it is preferable that the cylindrical body 9 has a double structure (a two-layer structure) and that the inner cloth (the cloth that comes into contact with the user's lower limbs C) is removable. By washing the removed inner cloth, it is possible to always massage the lower limbs C in a clean state.

[0047] The cylindrical body 9 and airbag arranged on the right side are the same as those on the left side, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted.

[0048] A pump that supplies pressurized air to the airbags 12 to 14 to inflate them, a solenoid valve that switches between introducing air into the airbags 12 to 14 and discharging air from the airbags 12 to 14, and a control device that controls the solenoid valve are housed inside the cushion body 2.

[0049] The pump is provided in the center of the pair of cylindrical bodies 9 arranged on the left and right sides, and is connected to the solenoid valves via hoses. The pump sends pressurized air to the solenoid valves, which then supply the air to each of the airbags 12-14. The control device has multiple pressure massage programs built in, and controls the inflation of the airbags 12-14 for each program. This allows the user M to select the pressure massage they want for their lower legs C.

[0050] On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 5, the massage machine 1 of the present invention is provided with a sheet-like covering cushion 4 connected to the cushion body 2 via an extension belt 3. When the massage mechanism 6 for massaging the lower limbs C is not in use, the covering cushion 4 is placed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2. The covering cushion 4 is a thin mat having substantially the same shape (substantially a square shape) as the upper surface of the cushion body 2, and is a so-called floor cushion.

[0051] An airbag (fourth airbag 15) is built into the covering cushion 4, and compressed air generated by a pump is sealed inside this fourth airbag 15, causing it to expand and enabling a pressure massage to be performed on the user M. The high-pressure air introduced into the fourth airbag 15 of the covering cushion 4 is generated by a pump disposed inside the cushion body 2, and is introduced into the fourth airbag 15 through an air pipe 16. The air pipe 16 is flexible, and extends from the cushion body 2 through the inside of the extension belt 3 into the covering cushion 4, and is connected to the fourth airbag 15 inside the covering cushion 4. This fourth airbag 15 makes it possible to massage the buttocks D of the user M.

[0052] The shape of the covering cushion 4 is not limited. It may be rectangular as shown in FIG. 1, or may be circular in size to cover the upper surface of the cushion body 2. The thickness of the covering cushion 4 is preferably several centimeters, but may be thicker or thinner depending on the preference of the user M. Materials to be inserted inside the covering cushion 4 are preferably cotton, sponge, urethane, etc., but are not limited to these.

[0053] They may be the same as the beads inserted in the cushion body 2. In this embodiment, one fourth airbag 15 is provided, but multiple fourth airbags may be provided, and the shape (in plan view) of the airbag may be rectangular or round. The shape, size, material, inserted contents, etc. of the covering cushion 4 can be changed as appropriate.

[0054] The extension strip 3 is a strip about 15 cm wide and 50 cm long, made of cloth and filled with cotton, sponge, urethane, etc., allowing it to bend freely. The extension strip 3 is long enough to span the top surface of the cushion body 2 from one end (top end of surface B) to the other end (top end of surface F). Therefore, as shown in Figure 7, the cover cushion 4 can be placed at a position away from the cushion body 2.

[0055] However, because the extension strip 3 is long, it may get in the way when storing the cushion or when placing the cover cushion 4 on the cushion body 2. Therefore, it is recommended to arrange the extension strip 3 as shown in FIG. 13. That is, as shown in the upper diagram of FIG. 13, the cover cushion 4 is positioned so as to be placed on the seat of a chair. When placing this cover cushion 4 on the cushion body 2, first, as shown in the middle diagram of FIG. 13, the extension strip 3 is placed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2 so that it extends (bridges) from the B-side to the F-side. Then, as shown in the lower diagram of FIG. 13, the cover cushion 4 on the F-side is tilted toward the B-side, and the cover cushion 4 is placed.

[0056] In this way, even a long extension band 3 can be disposed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2 (in other words, between the cover cushion 4 and the cushion body 2) in a well-fitting manner.

[0057] The width, length, material, charge, etc. of the extension belt 3 can be changed as appropriate.

[0058] In other words, the massage machine 1 of the present invention is capable of performing pressure massage on the lower limbs C and buttocks D, and also has a stylish appearance with excellent design features in the cushion body 2, extension belt 3, cover cushion 4, etc., so that it will fit in with modern rooms.

[0059] That is, the massage machine 1 of the present invention can be used as a massage machine 1 regardless of the installation location, and can also be installed as an interior accent. For example, the massage machine 1 of this embodiment can also be used as a stool (a small chair, floor stool).

[0060] The massage machine 1 described above can be used in a wide variety of ways, as will be explained below. [Usage 1] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (use mode 1) will be described.

[0061] 2 to 4 show an embodiment in which a user M is seated in a chair and massages the lower legs C and buttocks D. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the cushion body 2 of the massage machine 1 is placed in front of an ordinary chair, such as a folding chair. At this time, the side closest to the chair is surface B. Furthermore, a cover cushion 4 is placed on the seat of the chair (see FIGS. 2 and 3).

[0062] After placing the massage machine 1 in this state, the user M sits on the chair, then lowers the fastener 8, widens the slit to open the cylindrical body 9 (vertical cylindrical body 10), and fits the left and right lower legs C into the cylindrical body 9 from rear to front. Then, the instep of the foot is positioned in the first airbag 12, the heel is positioned in the second airbag 13, and the calf is positioned so as to correspond to the third airbag 14. Then, the fastener 8 is raised and closed to close the vertical cylindrical body 10, and the lower legs C are fixed inside the cylindrical body 9.

[0063] When the driving operation switch is turned on in this state, the pump is activated. Air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the first airbag 12 to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valves.

[0064] When air is supplied to the first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 and inflation begins, the first airbag 12 presses against the instep of the foot, the second airbag 13 presses against the widthwise side of the heel, and the third airbag 14 presses against the widthwise side of the calf, thereby effectively compressing and massaging the lower leg C.

[0065] For example, by performing an expansion / contraction operation in which the first airbag 12 is inflated, then the second airbag 13 is inflated and the first airbag 12 is deflated, and then the third airbag 14 is inflated and the second airbag 13 is deflated, it becomes possible to send blood in the lower limbs C upward (above the thighs), thereby promoting blood circulation in the lower limbs C (milking massage that squeezes the legs from bottom to top).

[0066] At the same time, the airbag in the covering cushion 4 is inflated to push up the buttocks D of the user M from below, thereby providing a pressure massage.

[0067] Furthermore, if there is a rotating roller below the horizontal cylinder 11 that applies a pressure massage to the sole of the inserted foot, this rotating roller may be driven.

[0068] That is, by cooperatively operating the first airbag 12 to the third airbag 14 and the rotating roller, various massage patterns can be performed. For example, by tightening each airbag more strongly than the other courses and simultaneously tightening the soles of the feet, a thorough, squeezing massage feeling can be achieved. Conversely, by loosening the tightening force of each airbag and increasing the rotation speed of the rotating roller, a rhythmic massage feeling can be achieved. It is also possible to tighten the first airbag 12 in the center and massage the toes with emphasis on the feet.

[0069] Furthermore, if a fifth airbag is provided below the horizontal cylinder 11, in addition to the usual sole pressure massage, it is possible to lift only the toes and perform a treatment that comfortably stretches the entire sole. If a thermal heater such as a PTC heater is provided along the cylinder 9, it is possible to warm the feet with this heater while providing a massage.

[0070] At the same time, air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve, causing the covering cushion 4 to inflate. As a result, the buttocks D of the user M sitting in the chair are effectively compressed and massaged by the fourth airbag 15.

[0071] In this way, the massager 1 in the first usage mode can provide an effective pressure massage to the lower legs C and buttocks D by having the lower legs C slip into the cushion body 2 and sitting on the cover cushion 4.

[0072] The beads inserted into the cushion body 2 are filled on the outside of the cylindrical body 9 and act as support when the airbags (first airbag 12 to fourth airbag 15) are inflated. That is, the presence of the beads prevents the airbags from moving away from the lower legs C when the airbags are inflated. The beads also support the airbags and exert a pressing force toward the lower legs C as a reaction force, providing a more effective massage to the lower legs C. [Usage 2] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (use mode 2) will be described.

[0073] 5 and 6 show the massage machine 1 in a form in which the cover cushion 4 is placed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2. For example, the cushion body 2 is placed in front of a normal chair such as a folding chair. In this case, the side closest to the chair is side B. Furthermore, the cover cushion 4 is placed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2.

[0074] After placing the massage machine 1 in this state, the user M sits on a chair, stretches out both legs (both lower legs C), and places the lower legs C on the cover cushion 4.

[0075] When the driving operation switch is turned on in this state, the pump is activated. Air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve and air piping 16.

[0076] When air is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 and inflation begins, the fourth airbag 15 presses the lower legs C (particularly the calves) upward, so that the lower legs C are effectively pressure-massaged.

[0077] In this way, the massage machine 1 in Usage Mode 2 can be used as an ottoman while providing an effective pressure massage to the lower legs C. In this way, the buttocks massage machine of the present invention can not only massage the buttocks of the user, but also massage other parts of the user (such as the lower legs). [Usage 3] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (use mode 3) will be described.

[0078] 7 and 8 show an embodiment in which a user M lies down on the floor or tatami mat and uses the massage machine 1 of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the cushion body 2 is placed with its surface B facing the floor and its bottom surface in contact with the wall. In this way, the upper surface with the openings 7 faces away from the wall. Then, the extension belt 3 is stretched forward on the floor, and the covering cushion 4 is placed at the end of it. The massage machine 1 is set in this state.

[0079] 8, the user M lies down, covers his / her buttocks D, places it on the cushion 4, and rests his / her back on the cushion body 2. The cushion body 2 has beads inside and is variable, so the head may be placed on the cushion body 2.

[0080] Thereafter, when the driver operation switch is turned on, the pump is activated and the air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve.

[0081] When air is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 and inflation begins, the fourth airbag 15 presses the buttocks D of the user M upward, effectively providing a pressure massage to the buttocks D. In other words, the user M can receive a pressure massage of the buttocks D in a comfortable position.

[0082] In this way, the massage machine 1 in the third usage mode can provide an effective pressure massage to the buttocks D while being used like a chair-type massage machine with the backrest reclined far backward. [Usage 4] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (use mode 4) will be described.

[0083] 9 and 10 show an embodiment in which a user M uses the massage machine 1 of the present invention while sitting on the floor or tatami mat.

[0084] 9 and 10, the cushion body 2 is placed with its bottom surface facing the floor and its surface F in contact with the wall. This causes its surface B to face away from the wall. The extension strip 3 is then placed to hang down forward, and a cover cushion 4 is placed on the floor just in front of the cushion body 2.

[0085] 10, the user M covers his / her buttocks D, places them on the cushion 4, stretches his / her legs out on the floor, and assumes a posture in which his / her back rests against the cushion body 2. The cushion body 2 has beads inside and is variable, so that the user can rest in a comfortable posture.

[0086] When the driver operation switch is then turned on in this state, the pump is activated and the air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve.

[0087] When air is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 and inflation begins, the fourth airbag 15 presses the buttocks D of the user M upward, effectively providing a pressure massage to the buttocks D. In other words, the user M can receive a pressure massage of the buttocks D in a comfortable position.

[0088] In this way, the massage machine 1 in the fourth usage mode can provide an effective pressure massage to the buttocks D while being used like a chair-type massage machine with the backrest in an upright position. [Usage 5] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (use mode 5) will be described.

[0089] 11 and 12 show a state in which the bottom surface of the cushion body 2 is placed facing the floor, and a cover cushion 4 is placed on the top surface of the cushion body 2. In Figs. 11 and 12, the cushion body 2 is placed so that side F faces the wall, but side B may be in contact with the wall, or none of the sides of the cushion body 2 may be in contact with the wall. Furthermore, the cover cushion 4 is placed on the top surface of the cushion body 2.

[0090] Then, as shown in FIG. 12, the user M sits on the massage machine 1 with his or her buttocks D covered and placed on the cushion 4.

[0091] When the driver operation switch is then turned on in this state, the pump is activated and the air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve.

[0092] When air is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 and inflation begins, the fourth airbag 15 presses the buttocks D of the user M upward, effectively providing a pressure massage to the buttocks D. In other words, the user M can receive a pressure massage of the buttocks D in a comfortable position.

[0093] In this way, the massager 1 in the fifth usage mode can provide an effective pressure massage to the buttocks D while being used as a stool. [Usage 6] A situation in which the massager 1 of the present invention is used (usage mode 6) will be described.

[0094] Figure 14 shows a state in which the bottom surface of the cushion body 2 is placed facing the floor, and the cover cushion 4 is installed hanging down from the side F of the cushion body 2. In Figure 14, the side B of the cushion body 2 is placed facing the wall, but it is also possible for none of the sides of the cushion body 2 to be in contact with the wall.

[0095] When installing the cover cushion 4 in a hanging manner on the F surface side of the cushion body 2, the extension strip 3 is placed on the upper surface of the cushion body 2 so that it extends from the B surface side to the F surface side. After that, the cover cushion 4 on the F surface side can be arranged so that it hangs down from the upper surface side of the cushion body 2 and is in contact with the F surface side.

[0096] Then, the user M places his / her buttocks D on the floor and leans against the cushion body 2 so that his / her back B is in contact with the cushion 4. After that, when the driving operation switch is turned on in this state, the pump is activated. The air pressurized by the pump is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 via the solenoid valve.

[0097] When air is supplied to the fourth airbag 15 and inflation begins, the fourth airbag 15 presses the back B of the user M forward, effectively providing a pressure massage to the back B. In other words, the user M can receive a pressure massage on the back B in a comfortable position.

[0098] According to the buttocks massage machine 1 described above, a user can receive a massage in a comfortable position, rather than sitting in a fixed chair. In particular, the lower limbs C and buttocks D of the user M can be massaged effectively. Furthermore, as shown in Usage Mode 1 to Usage Mode 5, various usages are possible, and a user can receive a massage in a variety of positions.

[0099] The embodiments disclosed herein should be considered to be illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims, not by the above description, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope of the claims. For example, the massage mechanism is not limited to an airbag, but may be a mechanical massage mechanism. A mechanical massage mechanism would enable more effective treatments, such as kneading massage or tapping massage, to be performed on the user's lower limbs and buttocks.

[0100] 15, it is preferable to place a support plate 17 made of plastic or the like on part or all of the outside of the cylindrical body 9 to create a space between the cylindrical body 9 and the beads. The space between the cylindrical body 9 and the beads prevents the beads packed on the outside of the cylindrical body 9 from moving toward the cylindrical body 9, thereby minimizing the collapse of the internal space of the cylindrical body 9 (the space into which the lower limb C is inserted). This allows the user M to smoothly insert the lower limb C into the cylindrical body 9. [Explanation of symbols]
