Description

Massage ball assembly of massage chair and massage chair

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a massage ball assembly of a massage chair capable of massaging a portion above the shoulder and a massage chair having the massage ball assembly mounted thereon.

Background

Many people receive massage in order to relieve physical stiffness caused by stress, a phenomenon of muscle mass caused by lack of exercise, and the like. However, since the massage provided by a professional masseur cannot be received for various reasons, massage chairs purchased at home for convenient use have been developed and used.

The existing massage chair performs a massage operation by moving a massage mass block installed at the inner side of a backrest up and down and left and right, a main frame is installed at each of both side surfaces of the massage mass block, and massage balls are installed at both ends of the main frame.

However, since the massage ball rotates in a state of being fixed to the main frame, it is difficult to provide the most comfortable massage in accordance with the flexion of the user's body even if the massage bolus moves up and down and left and right.

In particular, there is often a problem that the massage balls cannot properly massage the portion above the shoulders. The conventional massage chair which cannot sufficiently massage the portion above the shoulders is problematic in that it cannot satisfy the needs of modern people who often have pain symptoms in the portion above the shoulders.

Detailed Description

Hereinafter, the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the following, in fig. 1 and 2, assuming that the user sits on the massage chair, the upper side of the user is the upper side, the lower side is the lower side, the front side facing the user is the backrest side, and the rear side is the outer side.

On the other hand, the backrest portion 100, the leg fixing portion 300, and the foot fixing portion 310, which will be described later, are capable of performing a rotational movement or a vertical movement, respectively, and thus a separate actuator (not shown) is provided, but since the actuator is a known technique, a detailed description of the operation principle thereof will be omitted.

Further, when the mode is selected or changed by the operation part 500 described later and the massage chair is operated accordingly, after a signal is applied to the operation part 500, the signal should be transmitted by the control part (not shown) to complete the operation, however, the control part is also a known technology, and thus a detailed description of the operation principle thereof is omitted.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a massage chair according to an embodiment of the present application is explained.

The massage chair includes a backrest part 100, a seat part 200, a leg fixing part 300, a support frame 400, and an operating part 500, and further includes a massage ball assembly 600 according to an embodiment of the present application.

The backrest portion 100 is a portion supporting the back of a user, which is adjustable at a predetermined angle with respect to the support frame 400 and the seat portion 200 fixed on the ground.

A movable massage ball assembly 600 is installed at the center of the backrest 100.

The massage ball assembly 600 is a structure including a plurality of massage balls and warm balls, and can move up and down and left and right along a predetermined track inside the backrest part 100.

In addition, the massage ball can move forward and backward, and the user's shoulder height can be sensed accordingly. For example, when the massage ball assembly 600 moves upward from the lowermost portion, the massage ball meets the back of the user and moves backward from the reference position, and when the massage ball stops moving backward and returns to the reference position, the body of the user does not exist in the portion, and thus the height of the shoulder can be determined.

In addition, the massage ball assembly 600 moves along a predetermined track inside the backrest portion 100 while performing a massage operation, so that the plurality of massage balls press the user's back to the shoulders to provide a massage feeling. At this time, a plurality of massage balls protrude from the seat of the backrest part 100 to provide a massage feeling by pressing the back of the user to the shoulders, and for this reason, the seat may be made using a material having a predetermined elasticity.

The inside of the warming ball is provided with a hot wire, so that a user can be provided with a warming sensation by the heat generated by the hot wire.

The upper portion of the backrest portion 100 has a headrest 110 that contacts the head of the user.

Hereinafter, the massage ball assembly 600 according to an embodiment of the present application will be described in detail with reference to fig. 3 to 5.

Referring to fig. 3, the massage ball assembly 600 according to the present application may include a first main frame 610, an inclined frame 620, a second main frame 630, and a massage mass 650.

One massage ball assembly 600 includes two first main frames 610 to be installed one on each side of the massage mass 650 installed at the backrest part 100, and the first main frames 610 can be moved according to the up and down and left and right movements of the massage mass 650.

For mounting on the massage mass 650, a first mounting hole 611 may be formed at the center of the first main frame 610. Through the first mounting hole 611 of the first main frame 610, it is possible to directly couple to the massage mass 650, however, in the direct coupling, since the first main frame 610 is fixed to the massage mass 650, it is impossible to provide a massage feeling reflecting the flexion of the shoulder, back, waist and hip of the user, both sides of the massage mass 650 are respectively mounted with a rotation fixing part (not shown) rotatably fixed with respect to the coupling part of the main frame 610, and the first mounting hole 611 of the first main frame 610 may be fixedly mounted on the rotation fixing part (not shown), so that the mounting mass 650 can move up and down and left and right, and the first main frame 610 performs a pivoting motion from a position mounted on the massage mass 650, so that it is possible to provide the user with a massage feeling reflecting the flexion of the shoulder, back, waist and hip of the user.

The first main frame 610 includes a first extension portion 612 and a second extension portion 613, the first extension portion 612 extends from the first mounting hole 611 toward the backrest portion 100, and the second extension portion 613 extends from the first mounting hole 611 toward the bottom.

The inclined frame 620 is a portion pivotably installed at an end of the second extension 613 of the first main frame 610, and the inclined frame 620 is installed with a massage ball 621 and a warming ball 622.

The inclined frame 620 is installed to be pivotally movable with respect to the first main frame 610, and is a portion that provides an optimal massage feeling reflecting the flexion of the shoulder, back, waist and hip of the user.

Specifically, the tilting frame 620 may be installed at the second extension part 613 of the first main frame 610 according to the embodiment shown in fig. 4, but it is sufficient that one is installed at the end of the first extension part 612 of the first main frame 610 or at the ends of the first extension part 612 and the second extension part 613 according to other embodiments. The end of the first main frame 610 where the inclined frame 620 is not installed may be installed with a massage ball 614. Hereinafter, an embodiment when the tilting frame 620 is installed at the second extension 613 will be exemplified with reference to fig. 4.

The inclined frame 620 is centrally formed with a second mounting hole 623 for mounting to the first main frame 610. A third mounting hole (not shown) may be formed on the first main frame 610 at a portion corresponding to the second mounting hole 623.

The inclined frame 620 includes a first inclined frame 624 extending from the second mounting hole 623 toward the backrest portion 100 and a second inclined frame 625 extending from the second mounting hole 623 toward the bottom.

The warming ball 622 is rotatably installed at the end of the first inclined frame 624, and the massage ball 621 is rotatably installed at the end of the second inclined frame 625.

The rotation of the warm heat balls 622 and the massage balls 621 is different from the pivotal movement of the inclined frame 620, the inclined frame 620 performs the pivotal movement of a predetermined angle with respect to the first main frame 610 with the second mounting hole 623 as a rotation axis, and the warm heat balls 622 and the massage balls 621 are fixed at the mounting position of the inclined frame 620 and can only rotate.

That is, since the inclined frame 620 performs the pivotal motion with respect to the first main frame 610 using the second mounting hole 623 as a rotation axis, it is possible to provide an optimum massage suitable for the flexion of the user, compared to the related art in which the thermo-ball and the massage ball are mounted only on the main frame and move up and down and left and right.

The warm ball 622 is positioned closer to the first mounting hole 611 of the first main frame 610, and thus the massage ball 621 is positioned outside the inclined frame 620. That is, the massage feeling of the massage ball 621 can be provided through a longer path than when mounted inside.

The inclined frame 620 may be connected to the first main frame 610 by an elastic member 660.

The elastic member 660 provides restitution capability to the tilting frame 620 rotating around the main frame 610 by its own elastic force. Accordingly, the tilting frame 620 may also return to the initial position by the elastic member 660 while rotating according to the flexion of the user.

Referring to fig. 3 and 5, the second main frame 630 and the shoulder massage module 640 will be described in more detail.

Like the first main frame 610, two second main frames 630 may be provided on one massage ball assembly 600 to be installed one at each side end of the massage mass 650 installed on the backrest part 100, and the second main frames 630 may be moved according to the up-down and left-right movement of the massage mass 650.

A fourth mounting hole 631 may be formed at the center of the second main frame 630 for mounting to the massage mass 650. May be mounted to the massage mass 650 through the fourth mounting hole 631, and more particularly, the second main frame 630 may be mounted to the first main frame 610 through the fourth mounting hole 631, and the first main frame 610 is mounted to the massage mass 650, so that the mounting to the massage mass 650 may be completed. Since the second main frame 630 is provided separately from the first main frame 610, a shoulder massage operation can be independently performed by the shoulder massage module 640 mounted on the second main frame 630 regardless of the operation of the first main frame 610.

The second main frame 630 includes a third extending portion 632 extending from the fourth mounting hole 631 toward the backrest portion 100 and a fourth extending portion 633 extending downward from the fourth mounting hole 631.

In addition, referring to fig. 5, a power transmission unit 634 and a driving motor 635 may be further mounted on the second main frame 630.

The power transmission unit 634 may be provided in a disc shape, and a plurality of first protrusions 634a may be formed in a circumferential direction of the lateral surface.

The driving motor 635 is installed to face the power transmission unit 634 with the second main frame 630 therebetween, and the driving motor 635 supplies power to rotate the power transmission unit 634. For example, the drive motor 635 may be a rotary motor, and may be any drive motor that provides power to rotate the power transfer unit 634.

The shoulder massage module 640 is a part mounted on the second main frame 630, and is a part that provides a massage feeling by pressing the shoulders (more specifically, the parts above the shoulders) of the user of the massage chair.

The shoulder massage module 640 may be installed on the third extension portion 632 of the second main frame 630, and include a rotating frame 641 and a shoulder massage part 642.

The rotating frame 641 is a portion mounted on the second main frame 630, and the rotating frame 641 may extend around a circumferential direction centering on the portion mounted on the second main frame 630, and may have a disk shape as a whole, and a portion of a side thereof may have a plurality of second protrusions 641a formed along the circumferential direction.

The second protrusion 641a is engaged with the first protrusion 634a of the power transmission unit 634 such that the rotating frame 641 can rotate according to the rotation of the power transmission unit 634 and thus the pivotal movement of the shoulder massage part 642 mounted at one end of the rotating frame 641 can be achieved.

The shoulder massage part 642 is a part mounted on the rotating frame 641 through the connecting frame 643, and is a part that presses the shoulders of the massage chair user by a pivoting motion to provide a massage feeling.

The massage ball providing the massage feeling and the warm ball providing the warm feeling have a disk shape, so the massage bolus 650 provides the massage feeling generated by the rotation motion of the massage ball or the warm ball itself by moving up and down and left and right, and the shoulder massage part 642 provides the massage feeling by the pivoting motion with respect to the second main frame 630, not by the rotation motion of itself, so the surface 642a contacting the user preferably includes a curved surface. More specifically, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the shoulder massage part 642 includes a lower surface 642a having a predetermined curvature and an upper surface 642b having a curvature greater than that of the lower surface 642a, and the lower surface 642a preferably has an area capable of sufficiently covering a portion above the shoulders of the user. When the lower face 642a includes a curved surface, a sufficient massage feeling according to the pivotal motion of the shoulder massage portions 642 can be provided to the portion above the shoulders of the user.

Hereinafter, referring to fig. 6, the operation steps of the massage ball assembly 600 according to the embodiment of the present application will be described in more detail.

Basically, the massage ball 650 of the massage ball assembly 600 is installed inside the backrest part 100 to move up and down and left and right, and a massage feeling or a warming feeling can be provided to the user through the massage balls, the warming balls and the shoulder massage parts installed on each frame of the massage ball 650.

The first main frame 610 may perform a pivotal motion with respect to the massage mass 650, and the inclined frame 620 mounted on the first main frame 610 may perform a pivotal motion with respect to the first main frame 610.

Accordingly, as the massage bolus 650 moves up, down, left, and right, the massage ball 614 mounted on the first main frame 610, the massage ball 621 mounted on the inclined frame 620, and the warming ball 622 may rotate along the back curvature of the user to provide a massage feeling to the user.

The massage ball assembly according to the embodiment of the present application further includes a shoulder massage module 640, so that a massage according to the portion above the shoulders of the shoulder massage module 640 can be further performed (fig. 6).

The shoulder massage module 640 may be pivoted between a first position protruding from the seat of the backrest part 100, where the shoulder massage parts 642 protrude from the seat of the backrest part 100 to contact the user's body and make the user feel a massage feeling by pressing the contact parts, and a second position, installed inside the backrest part 100, where the shoulder massage parts 642 are not made to feel a massage feeling, of the backrest part 100.

Since the shoulder massage parts 642 are used to massage the above-shoulder portions, it is preferable to move toward the first position only at a predetermined position of the massage mass 650. In other words, it is preferable that the lower surface 642a of the shoulder massage part 642 contacts the above-shoulder portion of the user at the first position, which means that, in the up-and-down movement movable range of the massage bolus 650, it is preferable to perform the pivotal movement toward the first direction in which the backrest part 100 is located only within a predetermined range to contact the above-shoulder portion of the user, and to perform the pivotal movement toward the second direction opposite to the first direction within a range outside the predetermined range to be remounted inside the backrest part 100.

Wherein the predetermined range is determined based on the shoulder position of the user, and the shoulder position of the user is detected by a shoulder positioning module (not shown). As an example of the shoulder positioning method, a detection manner according to the up and down movement of the massage ball assembly 600 may be applied, but is not limited thereto, and any method for detecting the shoulder position may be applied.

That is, the shoulder positions of the user sitting on the massage chair may be detected by the shoulder positioning module (not shown), and the pivotal movement of the massage part 642 in the first direction toward the backrest part 100 in the upward and downward movable range of the massage mass 650 to contact the predetermined range of the portion above the shoulders may be decided based on the detected shoulder positions.

The present application as described above has the following effects.
