近年、自宅や職場環境など、パソコンや携帯電話の普及率が高まり、その使用時間が長くなるに従って肩こりに悩む人が多くなっている。これは、パソコン等の長時間の使用により、肩甲骨の内側の筋肉が緊張することによって血行が阻害されるためであり、このような肩こりの症状が出るケースが増加している傾向にある。そのため、このような肩こりの解消法としては、肩甲骨の内側縁周辺に対してマッサージを行い、硬化した筋肉を揉みほぐして血行促進を図ることが最良であると一般的に言われている。   In recent years, the penetration rate of personal computers and mobile phones has been increasing in homes and workplaces, and the number of people who suffer from stiff shoulders has increased as their usage time has increased. This is because blood circulation is hindered by straining the muscles inside the scapula due to prolonged use of a personal computer or the like, and there is a tendency that cases of such stiff shoulders appear. Therefore, it is generally said that the best way to eliminate such a stiff shoulder is to massage the inner periphery of the scapula and massage the hardened muscles to promote blood circulation.

また、ダイエットを効果的に行うには、褐色脂肪細胞を刺激して活性化させるのが良いとされ、当該褐色脂肪細胞が多く密集している肩甲骨の内側縁周辺をマッサージすることが効率的であると言われている。   For effective dieting, brown adipocytes should be stimulated and activated, and it is efficient to massage around the inner edge of the scapula where many brown adipocytes are concentrated It is said that.

従来、上面に大小一対の揉み玉を形成した按摩塊が左右一対に設けられ、夫々回転することにより、当該揉み玉が使用者の体表に対してマッサージする電動按摩器が提供されている（特許文献１）。   Conventionally, an electric massager is provided in which a pair of left and right massaging balls each having a pair of large and small kneading balls are provided on the upper surface, and the kneading balls massage the user's body surface by rotating respectively. Patent Document 1).

また、ハウジング内に、加振手段を備えた左右一対のもみ玉が、各回転体に夫々クランクピン、ばね製連桿及びもみ玉自転阻止手段を介して偏心状に取り付けられたマッサージ機が開示されている（特許文献２）。   Also disclosed is a massage machine in which a pair of left and right fir balls provided with vibration means are mounted eccentrically in each housing via crank pins, spring linkages and fir ball rotation prevention means, respectively.

First, FIG. 1 is an external perspective view showing a massage apparatus 1 according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan view thereof. As shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2, the massage apparatus 1 which concerns on this invention is comprised as follows. Specifically, a pair of left and right rotating tables 5 provided on the upper surface of the housing 2 and supported by a rotating shaft 4 that rotates in accordance with the driving of a motor 3 as a driving means, and the left and right rotating tables. 5 and a pair of left and right rubbing ball support bases 6 formed in a substantially triangular plate shape and projecting from the apex on the side of the motor 3 of the side surface portion of each rubbing ball support base 6. A substantially hemispherical first kneading ball 8 and a short axis which are attached via a coil spring 7 as a swingable means to an eccentric position of the upper surface of the kneading ball support base 6 with a protruding piece 6a ; In order to suppress rotation of the kneading ball support 5 and the second kneading ball 9 having a substantially elliptical sphere shape whose long axis is parallel to the kneading ball support 6, the protruding piece 6 a is fitted in the vertical direction. It is comprised from the guide groove 10 as a restraining means to guide to. The coil spring 7 may be anything as long as the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 can be swingably attached, such as rubber rods or bellows bodies.

図２に示すように、左右の各第一揉み玉８は、前記揉み玉支持台６上の突起片６ａを設けた頂点とは異なる頂点側で、且つ図２に示すマッサージ装置１の中心線αに対して近方の頂点側の上面に取り付けられ、一方、左右の各第二揉み玉９は、マッサージ装置１の中心線αに対して遠方の頂点側の上面に取り付けられる。このような左右一対の夫々の揉み玉支持台に取り付けた第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９は、夫々同種の揉み玉同士が、左右一対の揉み玉支持台間の中心線αに対して略鉛直方向に対向するように配置されている。また、当該第二揉み玉９は、マッサージ装置１の中心線αに対して平面視で４５°の角度で傾いた状態で、平面視ハの字状になるように取り付けられる。なお、当該第二揉み玉９の取り付け角度は、４５°に限られるものではなく、３０°〜６０°の範囲であってもよく、平面視逆ハの字状になるように左右の第二揉み玉９取り付けてもよい。   As shown in FIG. 2, the left and right first kneading balls 8 are on the apex side different from the apex provided with the protruding pieces 6a on the kneading ball support base 6, and the center line of the massage device 1 shown in FIG. The left and right second kneading balls 9 are attached to the upper surface on the apex side far from the center line α of the massage device 1. The first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 attached to such a pair of left and right kneading balls support bases have the same kind of kneading balls, respectively, with respect to the center line α between the pair of left and right kneading balls support tables. Are arranged so as to face each other in a substantially vertical direction. In addition, the second kneading balls 9 are attached so as to have a square shape in plan view in a state where the second kneading balls 9 are inclined at an angle of 45 ° in plan view with respect to the center line α of the massage device 1. In addition, the attachment angle of the second kneading balls 9 is not limited to 45 °, and may be in a range of 30 ° to 60 °. The kneading balls 9 may be attached.

図３は、本発明のマッサージ装置１を示す正面図であり、図４は背面図、図５は、左側面図である。これら図３、図４及び図５に示すように、揉み玉支持台６は、円筒状の回転台５の揉み玉支持台６を載置する面が水平方向に対して傾斜角（所謂リード角）２０°の傾斜面で形成されている（図５）のに沿って、水平方向に対して傾斜角２０°で傾斜した状態で載置されている。当該揉み玉支持台６は、回転軸４に挿通した状態であり、モーター３によって回転台５が回転するのに伴って、揉み玉支持台６の下面が回転台５における揉み揉み玉支持台６の載置面を摺動するとともに、突起片６ａがガイド溝１０内を上下方向に移動することで揉み玉支持台６の回転が抑止されることによって、回転台５の載置面の傾斜に応じて三角板状の各第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９を取り付けた頂点側が交互に上下運動するすりこぎ運動を行う。なお、回転台５における揉み玉支持台６の載置面の傾斜角は、水平方向に対して２０°に限られず、１０°〜３０°の範囲でもよい。   3 is a front view showing the massage apparatus 1 of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a rear view, and FIG. 5 is a left side view. As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, the kneading ball support base 6 has an inclination angle (so-called lead angle) with respect to the horizontal direction on the surface on which the kneading ball support base 6 of the cylindrical turntable 5 is placed. ) It is placed in a state where it is inclined at an inclination angle of 20 ° with respect to the horizontal direction along (FIG. 5) formed with an inclined surface of 20 °. The kneading ball support base 6 is in a state of being inserted into the rotating shaft 4, and the lower surface of the kneading ball support base 6 is rotated by the motor 3 so that the lower surface of the kneading ball support base 6 is in the turntable 5. The protrusion 6a moves up and down in the guide groove 10 and the rotation of the kneading ball support base 6 is suppressed, so that the mounting surface of the turntable 5 is inclined. Accordingly, a pestle motion is performed in which the apex side to which the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 each having a triangular plate shape are alternately moved up and down. In addition, the inclination | tilt angle of the mounting surface of the kneading ball support stand 6 in the turntable 5 is not restricted to 20 degrees with respect to a horizontal direction, The range of 10 degrees-30 degrees may be sufficient.

次に、このように回転台５を回転させるハウジング２の内部構造について、図６を用いて説明する。図６は、本発明のマッサージ装置１の内部構造を容易に把握すべく、底面視からの表現により、ハウジング２の内部構造、当該内部構造から回転軸４によって接続した左右一対の回転台５、各揉み玉支持台６並びに各第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９を示した図である。ハウジング２内の中央部に配設されたモーター３は、電動の単軸モーターで構成されており、当該単軸の先端にはネジ溝が掘られ、ウォームギア１１として形成されている。当該ウォームギア１１の近傍には、ハウジング２に取り付けられた軸棒１２が設けられ、当該軸棒１２に二段歯車１３が軸支されている。当該二段歯車１３は、上段の径の大きいはすば歯車１３ａと下段の径の小さい小歯車１３ｂとが形成されており、はすば歯車１３ａが前記ウォームギア１１と噛合っている。一方、小歯車１３ｂには、回転軸４によって軸支された平歯車１４が噛合うように構成されている。このように構成された内部構造によれば、モーター３の駆動により、回転軸４を介して回転台５へと回転運動が伝達される。   Next, the internal structure of the housing 2 that rotates the turntable 5 in this way will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 shows the internal structure of the housing 2 and a pair of left and right turntables 5 connected from the internal structure by the rotary shaft 4 in order to easily grasp the internal structure of the massage device 1 of the present invention. It is the figure which showed each kneading ball support stand 6, each first kneading ball 8, and the second kneading ball 9. FIG. The motor 3 disposed in the central portion of the housing 2 is an electric single-axis motor, and a screw groove is formed at the tip of the single shaft to form a worm gear 11. A shaft rod 12 attached to the housing 2 is provided near the worm gear 11, and a two-stage gear 13 is pivotally supported on the shaft rod 12. The two-stage gear 13 is formed with a helical gear 13 a having a large upper diameter and a small gear 13 b having a small lower diameter, and the helical gear 13 a meshes with the worm gear 11. On the other hand, the small gear 13b is configured to mesh with a spur gear 14 supported by the rotary shaft 4. According to the internal structure configured as described above, the rotational motion is transmitted to the rotary table 5 through the rotary shaft 4 by driving the motor 3.

このようにマッサージ装置１を構成すれば、前記揉み玉支持台６は、モーター３によって回転する回転台５の上記傾斜面に沿って摺動するとともに、突起片６ａとガイド溝１０によって回転が抑止されることにより、略三角形状板の各頂点側が交互に上下運動するすりこぎ運動を行う。これにより、当該揉み玉支持台６のすりこぎ運動に連動して、三角板状の揉み玉支持台６の頂点側にコイルばね７を介して取り付けられた各第一揉み玉８と第二揉み玉９とが交互に上下運動を行う。当該上下運動は、図７の断面図に示すように、回転台５の載置面の傾斜による高低差は、１８．０ｍｍであり、当該高低差に応じて第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９が上下運動を行う。なお、当該高低差は、１０．０ｍｍ〜２５．０ｍｍの範囲であってもよい。   If the massage device 1 is configured in this way, the kneading ball support base 6 slides along the inclined surface of the rotary base 5 that is rotated by the motor 3 and is prevented from rotating by the protruding pieces 6 a and the guide grooves 10. By doing so, a pestle motion is performed in which each vertex side of the substantially triangular plate alternately moves up and down. Accordingly, each of the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls which are attached to the apex side of the triangular plate-shaped kneading ball support base 6 via the coil spring 7 in conjunction with the grinding motion of the kneading ball support base 6. 9 and up and down movement alternately. As shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 7, the vertical movement has a height difference of 18.0 mm due to the inclination of the mounting surface of the turntable 5, and the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading according to the height difference. The ball 9 moves up and down. The height difference may be in the range of 10.0 mm to 25.0 mm.

そして、略半楕円球形状に形成された第二揉み玉９は、図２に示した中心線αに対して平面視で４５°に傾いて取り付けられることにより、より広い面積で揉みほぐし効果を得ることができ、第二揉み玉９による刺激が異なることによってマッサージ効果を向上させることができるとともに、平面視ハの字状或いは逆ハの字状に設けた左右一対の第二揉み玉９が左右の肩甲骨の内側縁に沿って食い込むようにして揉みほぐすため、特に肩甲骨の内側縁を効率的に揉みほぐすことができ、肩こりなどの症状を効果的に解消することができ、さらには、肩甲骨内側に集中している褐色脂肪細胞を効率的に刺激して活性化させるので、効果的なダイエットを行うことができる。   The second kneading balls 9 formed in a substantially semi-elliptical sphere shape are attached to the central line α shown in FIG. 2 with an inclination of 45 ° in plan view, thereby obtaining a kneading and unwinding effect in a wider area. The massage effect can be improved by the stimulation by the second kneading balls 9 being different, and the pair of left and right second kneading balls 9 provided in a C shape or a reverse C shape in plan view are As it bites along the inner edge of the scapula, it can effectively squeeze the inner edge of the scapula, effectively relieving stiff shoulders and other symptoms. Since brown adipocytes concentrated on the inside are efficiently stimulated and activated, an effective diet can be performed.

また、上記の回転軸４は、図２及び図７に示すように、回転台５の偏心位置で、回転台５の中心から偏心距離５．０ｍｍの位置に挿通されている。これにより、回転台５が当該偏心位置を中心として回転し、それに応じて、各第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９は上記の上下運動をしながら、その場で円軌道の旋回運動を行う。これにより、第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９のより複雑な動きを実現することができ、平面視ハの字状或いは逆ハの字状に配置した左右一対の第二揉み玉９の揉みほぐし効果と相俟って、上記のマッサージ効果をより向上させることができる。このような円軌道の回転運動は、モーター３を逆回転させれば回転の方向を変更することができ、揉みほぐしのバリエーションを増やすことによって、種々のマッサージを行うことができる。当該円軌道の回転運動は、ハの字状に配置した左右一対の第二揉み玉９の各内側先端が内側へ巻き込む方向である内回りの方が、より強く揉みほぐしを行うことができる。逆に、左右の第二揉み玉９を逆ハの字状に配置した場合は、外回りがよい。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 7, the rotating shaft 4 is inserted at a position of an eccentric distance of 5.0 mm from the center of the rotating table 5 at an eccentric position of the rotating table 5. Thereby, the turntable 5 rotates around the eccentric position, and accordingly, the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 perform the swiveling motion of the circular orbit on the spot while performing the above vertical movement. Do. Thereby, more complicated movements of the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 can be realized, and the pair of left and right second kneading balls 9 arranged in a C shape or a reverse C shape in a plan view. Combined with the massage effect, the massage effect can be further improved. Such a rotational movement of the circular orbit can change the direction of rotation if the motor 3 is rotated in the reverse direction, and various massages can be performed by increasing variations in massaging. In the rotational movement of the circular orbit, it is possible to squeeze and squeeze more strongly in the inner direction in which the inner tips of the pair of left and right second kneading balls 9 arranged in a U-shape are wound inward. Conversely, when the left and right second kneading balls 9 are arranged in a reverse C shape, the outer circumference is good.

さらに、上記の偏心距離を変更することにより、第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９の円軌道での旋回運動の径を変更することができる。例えば、上記偏心距離を大きくすれば、第一揉み玉８及び第二揉み玉９の円軌道の旋回運動の径は大きくなり、逆に偏心距離を小さくすれば、当該径は小さくなる。このように、揉みほぐしのバリエーションを増やすことができ、平面視ハの字状或いは逆ハの字状に配置した左右一対の第二揉み玉９の揉みほぐし効果と相俟って、使用者の好みに応じて、より刺激に変更を加えたマッサージを行うことができる。なお、回転台５の中心からの上記偏心位置は、３．０ｍｍ〜７．０ｍｍの範囲であってもよい。   Furthermore, the diameter of the turning motion in the circular orbit of the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 can be changed by changing the eccentric distance. For example, if the eccentric distance is increased, the diameters of the circular motions of the first kneading balls 8 and the second kneading balls 9 are increased. Conversely, if the eccentric distance is decreased, the diameters are decreased.
