Description

Pelvic massage device

[0001] The present invention relates to a massage device, and more particularly, to a pelvic massage device.

[0002] According to statistics from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, South Koreans spend approximately 7 hours and 30 minutes a day sitting. This means they spend 30% of their daily lives sitting. However, only 25% of people maintain proper posture—straight back and buttocks deep into the chair. In other words, approximately 75% of the population spends 30% of their time in poor posture.

[0003] Repeated poor posture can lead to imbalances in the body. A common problem is an asymmetrical twisting of the pelvis.

[0004] If the pelvis is not balanced, it interferes with the discharge of waste products, hinders dieting due to obstruction of the waste excretion organs, and causes asymmetry of the face and body.

[0005] In addition, there is a problem that the center of gravity is broken due to the imbalance of the pelvis, which causes the gait to be distorted due to the imbalance of the lower body line, and the physical fatigue increases due to the complex problems caused by this.

[0006] Therefore, there is a need to develop a pelvic massage device that can solve these problems.

[0007] The present invention is intended to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a pelvic massage device that can effectively pressurize the pelvis without putting a strain on the user's pelvis.

[0008] The tasks of the present invention are not limited to the tasks mentioned above, and other tasks not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains from the description below.

[0009] According to one aspect of the present invention, a pelvic massage device for massaging at least a part of a pelvis by pressing it, the pelvic massage device comprising a base portion in the shape of a plate, a first air pocket fixed to an upper surface of the base portion and expanded in volume by a blowing means to pressurize the outside of the pelvis, and a control portion for controlling the operation of the blowing means is provided.

[0010] At this time, the first air pocket may be positioned so that a portion of the surface facing the pelvis, which is expanded by the blowing means, is spaced apart from the base portion to pressurize the upper portion of the pelvis.

[0011] At this time, the first air pocket may include a first part that is expanded in volume by the blowing means and pressurizes the pelvis while at least a portion thereof is in contact with the pelvis, and a second part that is disposed at a lower portion of the first part and whose volume expansion by the blowing means is limited so that the first part presses the upper portion of the pelvis.

[0012] At this time, the first air pocket may further include a fixed portion disposed at the lower portion of the pelvis.

[0013] At this time, the second part may include a 2-1 part extending from the fixed part and having a first slope formed upward to wrap around the lower part of the pelvis, and a 2-2 part extending from the 2-1 part and having a second slope formed upward to wrap around the side of the pelvis.

[0014] At this time, the first part may extend from the second-second part to surround the upper portion of the pelvis.

[0015] At this time, the second slope may be formed to be greater than the first slope.

[0016] At this time, the first air pocket is formed as a Javara structure in which a plurality of expansion members are connected in a row, and can be formed to have a fan-shaped shape when the volume is expanded by the blowing means.

[0017] At this time, a second air pocket may be further included between the first air pockets that are fixed to the upper surface of the base portion and are arranged opposite each other to pressurize the lower portion of the pelvis.

[0018] At this time, the second air pocket may be provided with a pressure projection protruding outward to locally pressurize the lower part of the pelvis.

[0019] At this time, the second air pocket may include a 2-1 air pocket arranged in the center of the base portion, and a 2-2 air pocket arranged on both sides of the 2-1 air pocket.

[0020] At this time, the pressure projection may include a first pressure projection provided in the 2-1 air pocket to pressurize the user's perineum or prostate, and a second pressure projection provided in the 2-2 air pocket to pressurize the user's genital area.

[0021] At this time, the pressure projection may include a third pressure projection provided in the first air pocket to pressurize the user's blood circulation.

[0022] At this time, a protrusion heating part may be provided at the tip of the third pressurizing protrusion.

[0023] At this time, the hardness of the second pressing protrusion can be formed to be greater than the hardness of the first pressing protrusion.

[0024] At this time, the pressurizing projection includes a protrusion that protrudes outward through a first opening formed in the second air pocket and a flange portion that surrounds the circumference of the protrusion portion at a lower portion of the protrusion portion, and the pressurizing projection can be fixed to the second air pocket by fusing the flange portion to the inner surface of the second air pocket.

[0025] At this time, the second air pocket includes a first inner skin formed of an elastic material and connected to the blowing means to expand, and a second inner skin surrounding at least a portion of the first inner skin and having a second opening having a predetermined area formed on one side thereof, and the pressure protrusion may be formed by a portion of the first inner skin protruding outward through the second opening.

[0026] At this time, a pair of the first air pockets are arranged opposite to each other along the width direction, and the control unit controls the blowing means so that air having the same first pressure is injected into each of the first air pockets, and the injection amount of air injected into each of the first air pockets can be confirmed.

[0027] At this time, if the amount of air injected into each of the first air pockets is different, the control unit determines that there is a distortion of the pelvis, and can inject air having a second pressure greater than the first pressure into the first air pocket having a smaller amount of air injected so that the pelvis can be corrected.

[0028] According to the above configuration, the pelvic massage device according to the embodiment of the present invention can effectively pressurize the pelvis without putting a strain on the user's pelvis by pressing the outer side of the pelvis as the first air pocket expands with air by the blowing means, thereby improving the pelvic massage effect and user satisfaction.

[0029] The effects of the present invention are not limited to the effects described above, and should be understood to include all effects that can be inferred from the detailed description of the present invention or the composition of the invention described in the claims.

[0038] Hereinafter, with reference to the attached drawings, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can easily practice the present invention. The present invention may be implemented in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. To clearly explain the present invention, parts irrelevant to the description are omitted in the drawings, and the same reference numerals designate identical or similar components throughout the specification.

[0039] The words and terms used in this specification and claims should not be construed as limited to their ordinary or dictionary meanings, but should be interpreted in a way that is consistent with the technical idea of ​​the present invention, in accordance with the principles by which the inventor can define terms and concepts in order to best explain his or her invention.

[0040] Figure 1 is a front view of a pelvic massage device according to one embodiment of the present invention. To clearly explain the present invention, parts unrelated to the description are omitted from the drawing.

[0041] As illustrated in FIG. 1, a pelvic massage device (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is a device for helping blood circulation in the body and balance the pelvis by massaging the pelvis by applying pressure while wrapping at least a portion of the pelvis.

[0042] At this time, the pelvic massage device (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is provided with a plate-shaped base portion (100) so that the user can move or carry it, thereby further improving user satisfaction. This base portion (100) may have a predetermined thickness and may be formed in a flat plate shape so that it can be stably placed on the floor surface of the space where the user is located. However, the pelvic massage device (1) is not necessarily configured to be moveable or portable, and may also be installed and used on a massage chair, furniture, or office chair.

[0043] To this end, a pelvic massage device (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a first air pocket (200) that is fixed to the upper surface of a base (100) and expands in volume by a blower (10) to pressurize the outside of the pelvis (C), and a control unit (300) that controls the operation of the blower (10).

[0044] At this time, the above-described blowing means (10) can supply air to the interior of the first air pocket (200) and the second air pocket (400) so that the volume of the first air pocket (200) and the second air pocket (400) to be described later expands, and this blowing means (10) can be built into the interior of the base part (100). Here, the blowing means (10) can be a known fluid pump capable of supplying air, such as a blower or an air compressor.

[0045] However, as described above, the installation of the blower means (10) built into the base part (100) is only one embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that the blower means (10) may be placed on the outside of the base part (100) or may be placed in a state separated from the base part (100) as needed.

[0046] In addition, the base portion (100) may have a sufficient area to accommodate a plurality of first air pockets (200) and second air pockets (400). However, it is preferable that the base portion (100) be formed to have an appropriate size for easy storage and movement. In particular, the base portion (100) may be formed to have a thin thickness for easy storage in a specific space when not in use.

[0047] Meanwhile, in addition to the blowing means (10), a separate connector for supplying electric energy to the blowing means (10) may be installed in the base part (100), or a battery may be installed for storing electric energy so that operation is possible even when the power is not connected.

[0048] Referring again to FIG. 1, a pelvic massage device (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a first air pocket (200) that is connected to the blowing means (10) and whose volume is expanded.

[0049] This first air pocket (200) can be installed by being fixed to one side (101) of the base (100), and, as described later, can be formed in a Javara structure to enable expansion and contraction of volume.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first air pocket (200) may be formed with a structure suitable for intensively pressurizing the upper portion of the pelvis (C). To this end, a support protrusion (SP) having an upward slope toward the outer side in the width direction may be provided on one side (101) of the base portion (100) to support the first air pocket (200).

[0051] In addition, the first air pocket (200) may be positioned at a predetermined distance from the base (100) in a portion of the surface facing the pelvis (C) and expanded by the blower (10), as illustrated in FIG. 1. The specific configuration thereof will be described later.

[0052] At this time, the first air pocket (200) may be positioned so that the portion facing the pelvis (C) and expanded by the blower (10) to pressurize the upper portion of the pelvis (C) is spaced apart from the base portion (100). With this configuration, the portion of the first air pocket (200) that directly pressurizes the pelvis (C) is spaced apart from the base portion (100) in an upward direction, so that the upper portion of the pelvis (C) can be ultimately pressed, thereby enabling effective pelvic (C) massage.

[0053] FIG. 2 is a plan view of a pelvic massage device according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a front view of a pelvic massage device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first air pocket (200) may include a first part (210) that is expanded in volume by the blower means (10) and pressurizes the pelvis (C) while at least part of the first part (210) is in contact with the pelvis (C), and a second part (220) that is positioned below the first part (210) and whose volume expansion by the blower means (10) is limited so that the first part (210) pressurizes the upper part of the pelvis (C).

[0055] At this time, the first part (210) is a part whose volume is expanded by the blowing means (10), and a part of it is in contact with the pelvis (C) to pressurize the pelvis. In addition, the second part (220) is arranged below the first part (210), but unlike the first part (210), the volume expansion by the blowing means (10) can be limited so that the first part (210) can pressurize the upper part of the pelvis (C).

[0056] In this way, when the volume expansion of the second part (220) is limited, even though the first part (210) and the second part (220) are formed integrally, the part where the volume expands is limited to the upper region (the first part (210)), as illustrated in FIG. 3. As a result, the first part (210) where the actual volume expands is located at a position spaced apart from the base part (100), but a sufficient separation space (G) is formed between the second part (220) at the bottom of the first air pocket (200) and the lower part of the pelvis (C). Through this, the part of the first air pocket (200) that directly presses the pelvis (C) is spaced upward from the base part (100), so that the upper part of the pelvis (C) can ultimately be pressed.

[0057] In this way, when the first air pocket (200) pressurizes the upper part of the pelvis (C), the first air pocket (200) can pressurize the pelvis (C) to restrain it in the direction of gravity, so that even when the first air pocket (200) and the second air pocket (400) are inflated, the pelvis (C) is fixed in position so that it does not rise in the height direction, thereby enabling effective pelvic (C) massage.

[0058] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first air pocket (200) may further include a fixed portion (230) positioned at the lower portion of the pelvis (C).

[0059] That is, when air is injected into the first air pocket (200) and it expands, it pressurizes the user's pelvis (C). However, in order to enable effective pelvic (C) massage, the position of the first air pocket (200) must be stably fixed. As described above, when the fixing part (230) is provided, the first air pocket (200) is not pushed out during the pelvic (C) massage process, and a stable pelvic (C) massage is enabled.

[0060] As illustrated in FIG. 3, the second part (220) may include a 2-1 part (221) extending from the fixed part (230) and having a first slope (Θ1) formed upwardly to wrap around the lower part of the pelvis (C), and a 2-2 part (222) extending from the 2-1 part (221) and having a second slope (Θ2) formed upwardly to wrap around the side of the pelvis (C).

[0061] That is, since the second part (220) is composed of the second-1 part (221) and the second-2 part (222), when the first part (210) presses the pelvis (C), a natural angle is formed in the second part (220), and a sufficient separation space (G) is formed between the second part (220) at the bottom of the first air pocket (200) and the lower part of the pelvis (C). Through this, the part of the first air pocket (200) that directly presses the pelvis (C) is spaced upward from the base part (100), so that the upper part of the pelvis (C) can be ultimately pressed.

[0062] As shown in FIG. 3, the first part (210) can be extended from the second-second part (222) to wrap around the upper part of the pelvis (C), thereby enabling effective massage of the pelvis (C).

[0063] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first air pocket (200) may further include a boundary portion (240) that divides the first portion (210) and the second portion (220). That is, in the case of the boundary portion (240) located between the first portion (210) and the second portion (220), a pair of facing inner skins (IC) may be bonded to each other using an adhesive or fused by applying heat.

[0064] By this, the movement of air from the first part (210) to the second part (220) can be restricted, and as a result, the volume expansion when the air is injected by the blowing means (10) can be limited to the first part (210). In this way, when the boundary part (240) is formed through bonding or fusion, there is an advantage in that the first part (210) and the second part (220) can be manufactured as one piece rather than separately, and the first part (210) and the second part (220) can be easily partitioned. In particular, when the boundary part (240) is formed through fusion, a separate adhesive application process can be omitted compared to the bonding method, and thus there is an advantage in that the first air pocket (200) can be manufactured more effectively.

[0065] As illustrated in FIG. 3, the boundary portion (240) may include a first boundary portion (241) that divides the 2-1 portion (221) and the 2-2 portion (222), and a second boundary portion (242) that divides the 2-2 portion (222) and the 1st portion (210).

[0066] That is, when the 2-1 part (221) and the 2-2 part (222) are divided through the first boundary part (241), a natural angle can be formed in the 2nd part (220) when the 1st part (210) presses the pelvis (C), and when the 2-2 part (222) and the 1st part (210) are divided through the second boundary part (242), the 1st part (210) presses the upper part of the pelvis (C), enabling effective massage of the pelvis (C).

[0067] As described above, the first boundary portion (241) and the second boundary portion (242) are a pair of inner skins (IC) facing each other and can be bonded to each other using an adhesive or fused by applying heat.

[0068] As shown in FIG. 3, the second slope (Θ2) can be formed to be greater than the first slope (Θ1), and by configuring it in this way, even if a gentle slope is formed in the 2-2 part (222) while a gentle slope is formed in the 2-1 part (221), the first part (210) can effectively pressurize the upper part of the pelvis (C).

[0069] In addition, since a gentle slope is formed in the 2-1 part (221), the 2-1 part (221) can be prevented from being excessively bent from the fixed part (230), and since a gentle slope is also formed in the 2-2 part (222), the 2-2 part (222) can be prevented from being excessively bent from the 2-1 part (221), thereby improving the structural stability of the first air pocket (200).

[0070] Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a first air pocket provided in a pelvic massage device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0071] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the first air pocket (200) is formed as a Javara structure in which a plurality of expansion members (201, 202, 203, 204) are connected in a row, and can be formed to have a fan shape when the volume is expanded by the blowing means (10).

[0072] More specifically, the first air pocket (200) may have a plurality of expandable members (201, 202, 203, 204) connected in a row. In this regard, the drawing illustrates that the first air pocket (200) has four expandable members, including the first expandable member (201) to the fourth expandable member (204), but it should be noted that the number of expandable members (201, 202, 203, 204) is not limited thereto.

[0073] As illustrated in FIG. 1, a plurality of expansion members (201, 202, 203, 204) can form a fixed end (200') on one side adjacent to the base part (100) so that they cannot move from each other, and conversely, a free end (200") can be formed on the other side distant from the base part (100) so that they can be separated from each other when the first air pocket (200) is expanded. In this way, the first air pocket (200) is formed with a structure including a fixed end (200') and a free end (200"), so that when the volume is expanded by the blowing means (10), an overall fan shape can be formed.

[0074] As illustrated in FIG. 4, adjacent expansion members (201, 202, 203, 204) can be connected through a first communication passage (250) to enable communication of air supplied from a blower (10). As a result, when air is injected toward the first inlet (260) formed in the first expansion member (201) through the blower (10), the air moves through the first communication passage (250), so that not only the first expansion member (201) but also the second expansion member (202), the third expansion member (203), and the fourth expansion member (204) can be expanded together.

[0075] Referring again to FIG. 4, the first air pocket (200) can be formed as a multi-layer structure including an inner shell (IC) that is connected to a blowing means (10) and expands in volume, and an outer shell (OC) that surrounds the inner shell (IC).

[0076] At this time, the inner skin (IC) may be formed of a material having elasticity so that it can be closely attached to the outer skin (OC), which will be described later, without any gaps when expanded by the blowing means (10). In addition, the inner skin (IC) may be formed into a multi-layer structure including a first inner skin (IC1) and a second inner skin (IC2), which will be described later.

[0077] Next, the outer shell (OC) is formed of an elastic material and serves as a member for limiting the expansion of the inner shell (IC), which can continuously expand, to a certain level, thereby forming the overall outer shape of the first air pocket (200). In addition, the outer shell (OC) may be formed of a durable material as a member that comes into direct contact with the pelvis. In addition, the outer shell (OC) may be formed to be detachable from the inner shell (IC) so that it can be washed when contaminated.

[0078] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the base portion (100) may further include a second air pocket (400) provided between first air pockets (200) that are fixed to the upper surface and are positioned opposite each other to pressurize the lower portion of the pelvis (C).

[0079] This second air pocket (400), like the first air pocket (200), is fixed on the base (100) and can be formed to be inflated by being connected to a blower (10). The second air pocket (400) can apply pressure to the Seungbu point and the perineum or prostate located at the lower part of the pelvis (C), thereby enabling various massages to be applied to the user's pelvis (C).

[0080] In addition, the second air pocket (400) may be formed by dividing it into a portion where the volume expands and a portion where the volume expansion is limited, similar to the first air pocket (200), but it is not necessarily limited thereto, and all portions may be formed as portions where the volume expands without a portion where the volume expansion is limited.

[0081] Even in the case of this second air pocket (400), at least one expansion member may be provided, and when a plurality of expansion members are connected, a second communication path (410) may be provided to enable communication of air supplied from the blower (10). As a result, when air is injected toward the second injection port (420) formed in one side of the expansion member through the blower (10), the air moves through the second communication path (410), thereby allowing the plurality of expansion members to expand together.

[0082] FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a second air pocket provided in a pelvic massage device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0083] As illustrated in FIG. 5, the second air pocket (400) may be provided with a pressure projection (500) that protrudes outward to locally apply pressure to the lower part of the pelvis (C). This pressure projection (500) may be formed in a shape that protrudes from the second air pocket (400) in a direction toward the user's buttocks, and may be positioned at a position suitable for acupressuring the Seungbu point, perineum, or prostate among the second air pockets (400). In addition, the pressure projections (500) may be positioned in multiple numbers spaced apart from each other. Although the drawing illustrates that one pressure projection (500) is provided, the example of the pelvic massage device (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is not limited thereto, and may include a greater number of pressure projections (500) as needed.

[0084] At this time, a heating part (600) capable of providing a warm feeling to the user's buttocks may be provided on one side (101) of the base part (100). This heating part (600) may be arranged behind the second air pocket (400) so as to provide a warm feeling simultaneously during the pelvic (C) massage process.

[0085] As illustrated in FIG. 5, the second air pocket (400) may include a second-first air pocket (401) positioned at the center of the base portion (100), and second-second air pockets (402) positioned on both sides of the second-first air pocket (401).

[0086] That is, the 2-1 air pocket (401) is configured to pressurize the user's perineum or prostate, and the 2-2 air pocket (402) is configured to pressurize the user's pubic area, thereby enabling various massages.

[0087] As illustrated in FIG. 5, the pressure projection (500) may include a first pressure projection (501) provided in the 2-1 air pocket (401) to pressurize the user's perineum or prostate, and a second pressure projection (502) provided in the 2-2 air pocket (402) to pressurize the user's pubic area.

[0088] In this way, by providing the first pressure projection (501) and the second pressure projection (502), the perineum, prostate, and scrotum can be effectively pressed when the second air pocket (400) is expanded.

[0089] As shown in Fig. 5, the hardness of the second pressing protrusion (502) can be formed to be greater than the hardness of the first pressing protrusion (501).

[0090] That is, since it is effective to press the Seungbu point with strong pressure, it is composed of a hard second pressure protrusion (502), and since it is effective to press the perineum or prostate gently, it is composed of a soft first pressure protrusion (501).

[0091] FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a first modified example of a pressure projection provided in a second air pocket of a pelvic massage device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0092] As illustrated in FIG. 6, the pressurizing protrusion (500) includes a protrusion (510) that protrudes outward through a first opening (OP1) formed in the second air pocket (400) and a flange portion (520) that surrounds the circumference of the protrusion (510) at the lower portion of the protrusion (510), and the pressurizing protrusion (500) can be fixed to the second air pocket (400) by fusing the flange portion (520) to the inner surface of the second air pocket (400).

[0093] That is, the pressure projection (500) may be formed to include a protrusion (510) formed in a cylindrical shape and a flange portion (520) surrounding the circumference of the protrusion (510) at the lower portion of the protrusion (510), and a first opening (OP1) having an area corresponding to the cross-section of the protrusion (510) may be formed on one side of the outer shell (OC) among the second air pockets (400) so that the protrusion (510) can protrude. At this time, the flange portion (520) of the pressure projection (500) may be fixed to the inner shell (IC) by heat fusion or adhesive in a buried state so as not to be exposed to the outside by the outer shell (OC).

[0094] In this way, when the pressure projection (500) is formed separately and attached to the inner skin (IC), there is an advantage in that the pressure projection (500) can be custom-made to have a hardness suitable for pressing the user's buttocks.

[0095] FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a second modified example of a pressure projection provided in a second air pocket of a pelvic massage device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0096] As illustrated in FIG. 7, the second air pocket (400) includes a first inner skin (IC1) formed of an elastic material and connected to a blowing means (10) to expand, and a second inner skin (IC2) that surrounds at least a portion of the first inner skin (IC1) and has a second opening (OP2) having a predetermined area formed on one side thereof, and the pressure protrusion (500) can be formed by a portion of the first inner skin (IC1) protruding outward through the second opening (OP2).

[0097] That is, when the first inner skin (IC1) is expanded through the blowing means (10), the first inner skin (IC1) is formed of a material that is very elastic compared to the second inner skin (IC2), so it can expand freely, but the expansion can be restricted by the second inner skin (IC2). However, in the case of the portion where the second opening (OP2) described above is formed, since the expansion is not restricted by the second inner skin (IC2), the first inner skin (IC1) can protrude outward through the second opening (OP2), and the portion thus protruded can function as the pressure projection (500). In this way, when the pressure projection (500) is formed by the inner skin structure itself, a separate manufacturing process of the pressure projection (500) and a process for attaching the pressure projection can be omitted, so that a more effective manufacturing process can be introduced.

[0098] As shown in Fig. 1, a pair of first air pockets (200) are disposed opposite to each other in the width direction, and the control unit (300) controls the blowing means (10) so that air having the same first pressure is injected into each first air pocket (200), and the amount of air injected into each first air pocket (200) can be confirmed.

[0099] That is, it is basically configured to massage the pelvis (C) by injecting air having the same first pressure into the first air pocket (200) arranged on one side in the width direction and the first air pocket (200) arranged on the other side.

[0100] However, if the user's pelvis (C) is twisted to one side, the amount of air injected into the pair of first air pockets (200) may vary, and by configuring the control unit (300) to be able to check this, it is possible to indirectly check whether the user's pelvis (C) is twisted.

[0101] As illustrated in FIG. 1, the control unit (300) determines that there is a distortion of the pelvis (C) when the amount of air injected into each first air pocket (200) is different, and can inject air having a second pressure greater than the first pressure into the first air pocket (200) having a smaller amount of air injected so that the pelvis (C) is corrected.

[0102] For example, if the amount of air injected into the first air pocket (200) arranged on one side in the width direction is less than the amount of air injected into the first air pocket (200) arranged on the other side, it is determined that the user's pelvis (C) is twisted to one side in the width direction, and the twist of the pelvis (C) is corrected by applying greater pressure to one side of the user's pelvis (C).

[0103] To this end, each first air pocket (200) may be equipped with a blowing means (10), or a single blowing means (10) may be equipped, but an opening / closing member such as a valve may be equipped in the air injection path connected to each first air pocket (200) so that the injection pressure may be varied.

[0104] Alternatively, it is possible to control the following steps to be performed sequentially for the correction of the user's pelvis (C).

[0105] That is, the first step in which air is injected simultaneously into the first air pockets (200) arranged on both sides in the width direction, the second step in which air is injected alternately into the first air pockets (200) on one side in the width direction and the first air pockets (200) on the other side in the width direction, the third step in which air is injected simultaneously into the first air pockets (200) arranged on both sides in the width direction to hold the user's pelvis (C), and the fourth step in which air is injected into the second air pocket (400) on the perineum side to pressurize the user while the user's pelvis (C) is fixed by the first air pocket (200) can be sequentially performed.

[0106] To this end, a blowing means (10) is connected to the first air pocket (200) on one side in the width direction, the first air pocket (200) on the other side, and the second air pocket (400) so that air can be injected, and can be individually controlled.

[0107] FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 are plan views of a pelvic massage device according to another embodiment of the present invention, wherein FIG. 8 is a first modified example of a third pressure protrusion provided in a first air pocket, and FIG. 9 is a second modified example of a third pressure protrusion provided in a first air pocket.

[0108] As illustrated in Fig. 8, the first air pocket (200) may be equipped with a third pressure protrusion (503), and the user's acupuncture point may be pressed using the third pressure protrusion (503). The third pressure protrusion (503) may be configured with the same structure as the first pressure protrusion (501) or the second pressure protrusion (502).

[0109] Alternatively, as illustrated in Fig. 9, the first air pocket (200) may be provided with a third pressure protrusion (503) and a protrusion heating member (600'). The protrusion heating member (600') may be positioned at the tip of the third pressure protrusion (503). For example, the protrusion heating member (600') may be an F-PCB heater, but is not necessarily limited thereto, and any configuration that can heat the third pressure protrusion (503) may be used. The third pressure protrusion (503) and the protrusion heating member (600') may provide the user with acupressure and high-temperature moxibustion effects.

[0110] At this time, the above-mentioned protrusion heating part (600') can be placed not only on the third pressure protrusion (503) but also on the first pressure protrusion (501) and the second pressure protrusion (502), thereby providing a moxibustion effect while simultaneously applying acupressure to the user's perineum or prostate, and also providing acupressure to the user's Seungbu point and high-temperature moxibustion effect.

[0111] As previously discussed, the pelvic massage device according to the embodiment of the present invention pressurizes the outer side of the pelvis (C) as the first air pocket (200) expands with air by the blowing means (10), so that the pelvis (C) can be effectively pressed without putting a strain on the user's pelvis (C), thereby improving the pelvic massage effect and user satisfaction.

[0112] Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the spirit of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments presented in this specification, and those skilled in the art who understand the spirit of the present invention will be able to easily propose other embodiments by adding, changing, deleting, or adding components within the scope of the same spirit, but this will also be considered to fall within the spirit of the present invention.
