As shown in the figure, the massage machine 1 is continuously provided on the rear side of the two toe receiving parts 3 and 3 and the toe receiving parts 3 and 3 for independently accommodating the toes of both feet of the user. A main body casing 2 having two leg receiving portions 4 and 4 for accommodating a calf formed upward is provided. Here, as shown in FIG. 3, the direction in which the toes are facing in the state where the toes of the user M sitting on the chair are accommodated in the toe receiving portion 3 and the calves are accommodated in the leg receiving portion 4 is hereinafter referred to as “front”. And

本体ケーシング2は後部から上向きに背壁17、左右に側壁10、10、該側壁10、10間に仕切壁12を有しており、両側壁10、10、仕切壁12及び背壁17とで、前方及び上方が開口した2つの足先受部3、3と、2つの脚受部4、4が形成されている。足先受部3の底部31の前後方向の長さは30〜35cm程度、幅長さは13〜15cm程度で、大人の足裏の長さ、足裏の幅に対して十分余裕がある。脚受部4の高さは30〜40cm程度である。   The main body casing 2 has a back wall 17 upward from the rear, side walls 10 and 10 on the left and right sides, and a partition wall 12 between the side walls 10 and 10, and the side walls 10 and 10, the partition wall 12 and the back wall 17 The two foot receiving parts 3 and 3 and the two leg receiving parts 4 and 4 which are open at the front and upper sides are formed. The length 31 in the front-rear direction of the bottom 31 of the foot receiving part 3 is about 30 to 35 cm, and the width is about 13 to 15 cm, which has a sufficient margin for the length of the adult foot and the width of the foot. The height of the leg receiving part 4 is about 30 to 40 cm.

足先受部3、3の底面や側面、脚受部4、4の底面や側面には、マッサージ手段が具えられている。マッサージ手段としては、エアー圧で膨らんで足裏やふくらはぎの裏面を押圧したり、足先やふくらはぎを側面から押圧するエアバッグ5を例示できる。図5においては、ふくらはぎの側面を押圧する側面エアバッグ5を示している。マッサージ手段である全てのエアバッグ5は、布製カバー32で覆われている。   Massage means are provided on the bottom and side surfaces of the foot receiving portions 3 and 3 and the bottom and side surfaces of the leg receiving portions 4 and 4. Examples of the massage means include an airbag 5 that inflates with air pressure and presses the soles and the back of the calves, or presses the toes and the calves from the side. In FIG. 5, the side airbag 5 which presses the side surface of the calf is shown. All airbags 5 serving as massage means are covered with a cloth cover 32.

本体ケーシング2には、底側前端から背壁17の上部にかけて延びる2本の脚部20、20が平行に突設されている。各脚部20は足先受部3の真下と脚受部4の真後ろを通って延びている。脚部20、20の接地面である底部は湾曲して膨らんだ膨らみ湾曲面21に形成され、本体ケーシング2は該膨らみ湾曲面21によって前後方向に揺動可能である。   In the main casing 2, two leg portions 20, 20 extending from the bottom front end to the upper portion of the back wall 17 are projected in parallel. Each leg 20 extends directly below the foot support 3 and behind the leg support 4. The bottom portion, which is the ground contact surface of the legs 20, 20, is formed into a bulging curved surface 21 that is curved and bulged, and the main body casing 2 can be swung back and forth by the bulging curved surface 21.

膨らみ湾曲面21は、前記足先受部3の前部と対応する本体ケーシング2底部の前部にて上向きに湾曲した前側膨らみ湾曲面21bと、本体ケーシング2底部の後寄りから背壁17の上部へ延びる後側膨らみ湾曲面21aを有し、両膨らみ湾曲面21a、21bはフラット面21cを介して連続している。   The bulging curved surface 21 includes a front bulging curved surface 21b curved upward at the front of the bottom of the main casing 2 corresponding to the front of the foot receiving portion 3, and the back wall 17 from the rear of the bottom of the main casing 2 There is a rear bulge curved surface 21a extending upward, and both bulge curved surfaces 21a and 21b are continuous via a flat surface 21c.

この足用マッサージ機は、図3の如く、椅子に座った被施療者Mの足先を足先受部3に、ふくらはぎを脚受部4に収容した状態で使用したり、膨らみ湾曲面21によって本体ケーシング2を前後方向に揺動させ、例えば図4の如く後方へ揺動させ、寝転んで膝を立てた状態でも使用することができる。   As shown in FIG. 3, the foot massage machine is used in a state where the toes of the user M sitting on a chair are accommodated in the toe receiving part 3 and the calf is accommodated in the leg receiving part 4, or a bulging curved surface 21 is provided. Thus, the main body casing 2 can be swung back and forth, for example, swung back as shown in FIG.

本体ケーシング2の左右の両側壁10、10、の外側面の上部(脚受部4、4の左右の外側面の上部に相当)には、開口6が形成され、該開口6には、合成樹脂製の取っ手カバー7が装着されている。図5に示す如く、取っ手カバー7には、内側へ窪んだ凹部8が形成され、この凹部8は、マッサージ機1を持ち運ぶ際の取っ手となる。詳細に説明すると、凹部8は、上部と下部とで深さが異なり、上部凹部8aが深く、下部凹部8bが浅くなっている。取っ手カバー7の上縁には、手掛け部9が形成されている。マッサージ機1を持ち運ぶ際には、上部凹部8aに手を挿入して指を手掛け部9に引っ掛けて運ぶ。   An opening 6 is formed in the upper part of the outer surface of the left and right side walls 10, 10 of the main casing 2 (corresponding to the upper part of the left and right outer surfaces of the leg receiving parts 4, 4). A resin handle cover 7 is attached. As shown in FIG. 5, the handle cover 7 is formed with a recess 8 that is recessed inward, and this recess 8 serves as a handle for carrying the massage machine 1. More specifically, the depth of the concave portion 8 is different between the upper portion and the lower portion, the upper concave portion 8a is deep, and the lower concave portion 8b is shallow. A handle portion 9 is formed on the upper edge of the handle cover 7. When carrying the massage machine 1, a hand is inserted into the upper concave portion 8 a and a finger is hooked on the handle portion 9 and carried.

下部凹部8bには、マッサージ機1を操作するリモコン操作器50が着脱自在に装着される。下部凹部8bの前後の側面には、係合凸部71が突設され、一方リモコン操作器50の上面と底面には、係合凹部51が形成され、係合凸部71を係合凹部51に弾性嵌合することにより、リモコン操作器50を下部凹部8bに装着している。装着状態では、図5に示すように、凹部8の深さ方向に対しては、リモコン操作器50は下部凹部8b内に殆どすっぽりと入った状態となる。上下方向には、一部が下部凹部8bより上部凹部8aへとはみ出している。リモコン操作器50を下部凹部8bから取り出す際には、このはみ出した部分に手を引っ掛けて係合凸部71と係合凹部51の弾性係合を外す。   A remote controller 50 for operating the massage machine 1 is detachably attached to the lower recess 8b. Engaging protrusions 71 project from the front and rear side surfaces of the lower recess 8b, while engaging recesses 51 are formed on the top and bottom surfaces of the remote controller 50. The remote controller 50 is mounted in the lower recess 8b by being elastically fitted to the lower recess 8b. In the mounted state, as shown in FIG. 5, with respect to the depth direction of the concave portion 8, the remote controller 50 is almost completely in the lower concave portion 8b. In the up-down direction, a part protrudes from the lower recess 8b to the upper recess 8a. When the remote controller 50 is taken out from the lower concave portion 8b, a hand is hooked on the protruding portion to release the elastic engagement between the engaging convex portion 71 and the engaging concave portion 51.

図7はリモコン操作器50の正面図、図8は一部を破断した側面図である。リモコン操作器50の正面には、運転「入/切」ボタン他複数個の操作ボタン52が配備される。裏面には、赤外線発光部(LED)53が露呈しており、操作ボタンに応じた信号を裏面より発光する。マッサージ機の仕切壁12の上面には、赤外線発光部53より発光される信号を受信する赤外線受光部60が配備されている。赤外線受光部60は、通常赤外線を透過させるカバーで覆われ、保護されている。このようにリモコン操作器50は所謂ワイヤレスリモコンである。   7 is a front view of the remote controller 50, and FIG. 8 is a side view with a part broken away. In front of the remote controller 50, an operation “ON / OFF” button and a plurality of operation buttons 52 are provided. An infrared light emitting unit (LED) 53 is exposed on the back surface, and a signal corresponding to the operation button is emitted from the back surface. On the upper surface of the partition wall 12 of the massage machine, an infrared light receiving unit 60 that receives a signal emitted from the infrared light emitting unit 53 is provided. The infrared light receiving unit 60 is usually covered and protected by a cover that transmits infrared light. Thus, the remote controller 50 is a so-called wireless remote controller.

図3のように椅子に座ってマッサージ機1を使用する場合、リモコン操作器50の操作ボタン52を自分の顔に向けて見やすくした状態にしても、リモコン操作器50の裏面より露呈した赤外線発光部53が必然的に赤外線受光部60に向くことになり、この自然な姿勢で、操作ボタン52の操作が可能になる。また図4のようにマッサージ機1を寝転んで使用する場合も同様に、リモコン操作器50の操作ボタン52を顔に向けた状態で、操作が可能になる。図3、図4で、矢印Bは目線を表し、矢印Cは、赤外線発光部53から発光される赤外線を表す。   When using the massage machine 1 while sitting on a chair as shown in FIG. 3, even if the operation button 52 of the remote controller 50 is directed toward the user's face, the infrared light emitted from the back of the remote controller 50 is visible. The unit 53 inevitably faces the infrared light receiving unit 60, and the operation button 52 can be operated with this natural posture. Similarly, when using the massage machine 1 lying down as shown in FIG. 4, the operation can be performed with the operation button 52 of the remote controller 50 facing the face. 3 and 4, an arrow B represents a line of sight, and an arrow C represents infrared light emitted from the infrared light emitting unit 53.

図7、図8のリモコン操作器50では赤外線発光部53から発光される赤外線が裏面のみから発光するようになっているが、図9、図10に示すように、赤外線発光部53を上面にも露呈させ、裏面以外に上面からも発光させることもできる。   7 and 8, the infrared light emitted from the infrared light emitting unit 53 is emitted only from the back surface. However, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the infrared light emitting unit 53 is disposed on the upper surface. In addition, the light can be emitted from the upper surface as well as the back surface.

従来、一般的なリモコン操作器50の赤外線発光部53は、図11のようにリモコン操作器50の上面からのみ発光するものであるが、このようなものでは、図12に示すように、手首を捻るなどして赤外線発光部53を前方下方に位置する赤外線受光部60に向けなければならず、操作ボタン52が見難く操作しにくいものであるが、図7乃至図10に示すリモコン操作器50では、この点が改善され、操作性が向上する。図8、図10乃至図12で、矢印Cは、赤外線発光部53から発光される赤外線を表す。   Conventionally, the infrared light emitting unit 53 of a general remote controller 50 emits light only from the upper surface of the remote controller 50 as shown in FIG. 11, but in such a case, as shown in FIG. The infrared light emitting unit 53 must be directed to the infrared light receiving unit 60 located at the front lower side by twisting the operation button 52, and the operation buttons 52 are difficult to see and operate, but the remote controller shown in FIGS. In 50, this point is improved and operability is improved. 8 and 10 to 12, an arrow C represents the infrared light emitted from the infrared light emitting unit 53.

マッサージ機の使用が終わると、リモコン操作器50は、取っ手カバー7の下部凹部8b内に装着して収納する。従って、不使用時にはリモコン操作器50は、マッサージ機本体の横にぶら下がることなく、見栄えも良くなり、不用意に人が当たることもない。   When the use of the massage machine is finished, the remote controller 50 is mounted and stored in the lower recess 8b of the handle cover 7. Therefore, when not in use, the remote controller 50 does not hang beside the massage machine main body, improves its appearance, and prevents people from inadvertently hitting it.

マッサージ機を持ち運ぶ際には、リモコン操作器50を下部凹部8b内に収納しているので、リモコン操作器50がマッサージ機本体に当たって音を発生したり傷つけたりすることがない。またリモコン操作器50は下部凹部8bに収納され、上部凹部8aに手を掛ける手掛け部9が形成されているので、持ち運ぶ際にリモコン操作器50が邪魔になることはない。また前記凹部8は、脚受部4、4の左右の外側面の上部に形成されているので、持ち運ぶ際、上体を少しだけ屈めればよく、移動する際の負担を少なくできる。また万一落下しても、衝撃を最小限に抑えることができる。   When carrying the massage machine, the remote controller 50 is housed in the lower recess 8b, so that the remote controller 50 does not hit the massage machine body to generate sound or damage it. Further, since the remote controller 50 is housed in the lower recess 8b and the handle portion 9 for holding the upper recess 8a is formed, the remote controller 50 does not get in the way when being carried. Moreover, since the said recessed part 8 is formed in the upper part of the right-and-left outer surface of the leg receiving parts 4 and 4, when carrying, it should just bend the upper body a little and can reduce the burden at the time of movement. Even if it falls, the impact can be minimized.

以上の説明では、マッサージを行っている被施療者から見て左側の取っ手カバー7の凹部8に、リモコン操作器50を装着する場合を説明しているが、右側の取っ手カバー7の凹部8にも、同様にしてリモコン操作器50を着脱自在に装着できる。このようにすれば、左利き右利きに関係なく使い易い。
[実施例2]
図13は他の実施例のマッサージ機を示し、この足用マッサージ機1は、床面に載置されるベース部25上に、前後方向に揺動可能に支持される可動部26を具えたもので、この可動部26に、被施療者の両足の足先を独立して収容する2つの足先受部3、3と、足先受部3、3の後部側に連続して上向き形成されたふくらはぎを収容する2つの脚受部4、4が構成されたものである。実施例1と同様、この足先受部3、3の底面や側面、脚受部4、4の底面や側面に、マッサージ手段が具えられている。実施例1と同様のものには、実施例1と同じ符号を附し、説明は省略する。
In the above description, the case where the remote controller 50 is attached to the concave portion 8 of the left handle cover 7 as viewed from the user performing massage is described. Similarly, the remote controller 50 can be detachably attached. In this way, it is easy to use regardless of left-handed or right-handed.
[Example 2]
FIG. 13 shows a massage machine according to another embodiment. This massage machine for feet 1 has a movable part 26 supported on a base part 25 placed on the floor so as to be swingable in the front-rear direction. In this movable part 26, the two toe receiving parts 3 and 3 for independently accommodating the toes of both feet of the user and the rear side of the toe receiving parts 3 and 3 are continuously formed upward. The two leg receiving parts 4 and 4 which accommodate the calf which were made are comprised. As in the first embodiment, massage means are provided on the bottom and side surfaces of the foot receiving portions 3 and 3 and the bottom and side surfaces of the leg receiving portions 4 and 4. Components similar to those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment, and description thereof is omitted.

そして脚受部4、4の左右の外側面の上部に相当には、図6に示したのと同様の凹部8が形成された取っ手カバー7が装着され、マッサージ機1を持ち運ぶ際の取っ手となると共に、凹部8の下部には、マッサージ機を操作するリモコン操作器50が着脱自在に装着されるものである。装着方法等は、実施例1と同じである。   A handle cover 7 having a recess 8 similar to that shown in FIG. 6 is attached to the upper portions of the left and right outer surfaces of the leg receiving portions 4, 4, and a handle for carrying the massage machine 1. In addition, a remote controller 50 for operating the massage machine is detachably attached to the lower part of the recess 8. The mounting method and the like are the same as those in the first embodiment.

図14はリモコン操作器50の正面図で、実施例1のものに比べ幅が細くなっている。正面には操作ボタン52のみが配備され、また赤外線発光部53の発光は、図10に示したように、裏面と上面より発光されるようになっている。   FIG. 14 is a front view of the remote controller 50, which is narrower than that of the first embodiment. Only the operation button 52 is provided on the front surface, and the light emission of the infrared light emitting unit 53 is emitted from the back surface and the top surface as shown in FIG.

左右の足を仕切る中央の仕切壁12の上面には、図15に示すように、赤外線受光部60の他に、リモコン操作器50の操作ボタン52群の配列と同様の配列をした操作ボタン92群と、その隣に、操作ボタン92群の操作内容などを表示するLED等からなる表示部93群とを具えた固定操作部90が配備されている。赤外線受光部60は、赤外線を透過するカバー61で覆われ保護されている。図15では、カバー61をハッチングで表している。リモコン操作器50を操作すると、その操作内容等が、固定操作部90の表示部93で表示されるようになっている。このようにすることにより、リモコン操作部50においては表示部を省略することができ、小型化が可能になる。   On the upper surface of the central partition wall 12 that divides the left and right feet, as shown in FIG. 15, in addition to the infrared light receiving unit 60, operation buttons 92 having the same arrangement as the operation buttons 52 group of the remote controller 50 are arranged. A fixed operation unit 90 including a group and a display unit 93 group including LEDs or the like for displaying operation contents of the operation button 92 group and the like is arranged next to the group. The infrared light receiving unit 60 is covered and protected by a cover 61 that transmits infrared light. In FIG. 15, the cover 61 is indicated by hatching.
