たたき駆動機構は、たたき用モータ１１と、ギア１２と、たたき用シャフト１３と、左用偏心回動体と、右用偏心回動体と、左側突出部と、右側突出部と、を含む。たたき用シャフト１３には、左用偏心回動体と及び右用偏心回動体が固定されている。前方に向かって延びる左側突出部の後端には、たたき用シャフト１３と同心の貫通孔が設けられている。たたき用シャフト１３が回転すると、左用偏心回動体が左側突出部の貫通孔を摺動しながら回転する。前方に向かって延びる右側突出部の後端には、たたき用シャフト１３と同心の貫通孔が設けられている。たたき用シャフト１３が回転すると、右用偏心回動体が右側突出部の貫通孔を摺動しながら回転する。たたき用シャフト１３に取り付けられた左側突出部の前端は左側ボールジョイントによってアームＡＭ１に連結されている。たたき用シャフト１３に取り付けられた右側突出部の前端は右側ボールジョイントによってアームＡＭ２に連結されている。たたき用モータ１１が駆動すると、ギア１２を介してたたき用シャフト１３に駆動力が印加され、たたき用シャフト１３が回転する。たたき用シャフト１３の回転に伴って、後述する揉み用シャフト１５を枢軸としてアームＡＭ１及びＡＭ２が揺動する。 The tapping drive mechanism includes a tapping motor 11, a gear 12, a striking shaft 13, a left eccentric rotating body, a right eccentric rotating body, a left side protrusion, and a right side protrusion. A left eccentric rotating body and a right eccentric rotating body are fixed to the tapping shaft 13. A through hole concentric with the tapping shaft 13 is provided at the rear end of the left side protrusion extending toward the front. When the tapping shaft 13 rotates, the left eccentric rotating body rotates while sliding through the through hole of the left protruding portion. A through hole concentric with the tapping shaft 13 is provided at the rear end of the right-side protruding portion extending toward the front. When the tapping shaft 13 rotates, the right eccentric rotating body rotates while sliding through the through hole of the right protruding portion. The front end of the left side protrusion attached to the tapping shaft 13 is connected to the arm AM1 by a left side ball joint. The front end of the right side protrusion attached to the tapping shaft 13 is connected to the arm AM2 by a right side ball joint. When the tapping motor 11 is driven, a driving force is applied to the striking shaft 13 via the gear 12, and the striking shaft 13 rotates. As the tapping shaft 13 rotates, the arms AM1 and AM2 swing around the kneading shaft 15 described later as a pivot.

アームＡＭ１は施療子９を支持し、アームＡＭ２は施療子１０を支持する。施療子９はアームＡＭ１の前端に取り付けられており、施療子１０はアームＡＭ２の前端に取り付けられている。アームＡＭ１の前端とアームＡＭ２の前端との左右方向幅Ｗ１は、アームＡＭ１の後端部とアームＡＭ１の後端との左右方向幅Ｗ２より狭い。アームＡＭ１の後端部とアームＡＭ１の後端との間には第３平板部材Ｐ３が配置され幅Ｗ２が広くなるため、幅Ｗ１を幅Ｗ２より狭くすることで施療子９及び１０を適切な位置に配置することができる。なお、第３平板部材Ｐ３の左右方向長さを短くする等の対策によって幅Ｗ２がさほど広くならないのであれば、本実施例とは異なり幅Ｗ１を幅Ｗ２以上にしてもよい。 The arm AM1 supports the treatment child 9, and the arm AM2 supports the treatment child 10. The treatment child 9 is attached to the front end of the arm AM1, and the treatment child 10 is attached to the front end of the arm AM2. The left-right width W1 between the front end of the arm AM1 and the front end of the arm AM2 is narrower than the left-right width W2 between the rear end portion of the arm AM1 and the rear end of the arm AM1. Since the third flat plate member P3 is arranged between the rear end of the arm AM1 and the rear end of the arm AM1 and the width W2 becomes wider, the treatments 9 and 10 are appropriately made by making the width W1 narrower than the width W2. Can be placed in position. If the width W2 is not so wide due to measures such as shortening the length of the third flat plate member P3 in the left-right direction, the width W1 may be set to the width W2 or more, unlike the present embodiment.

揉み駆動機構は、揉み用モータ１４と、揉み用シャフト１５と、偏心回動体と、を含む。左右方向に延びている揉み用シャフト１５に、左右一対の偏心回動体が固定されている。揉み用シャフト１５は、左側の偏心回動体を介してアームＡＭ１の後部を支持し、右側の偏心回動体を介してアームＡＭ２の後部を支持する。揉み用シャフト１５に揉み用モータ１４が連動連結される。揉み用モータ１４が駆動すると、揉み用シャフト１５が回転し、揉み用シャフト１５に固定されている左右一対の偏心回動体も回転する。左右一対の偏心回動体の回転によってアームＡＭ１及びＡＭ２は上下、左右、前後にそれぞれ揺動する。 The kneading drive mechanism includes a kneading motor 14, a kneading shaft 15, and an eccentric rotating body. A pair of left and right eccentric rotating bodies are fixed to a kneading shaft 15 extending in the left-right direction. The kneading shaft 15 supports the rear portion of the arm AM1 via the eccentric rotating body on the left side, and supports the rear portion of the arm AM2 via the eccentric rotating body on the right side. The kneading motor 14 is interlocked and connected to the kneading shaft 15. When the kneading motor 14 is driven, the kneading shaft 15 rotates, and a pair of left and right eccentric rotating bodies fixed to the kneading shaft 15 also rotate. The arms AM1 and AM2 swing up and down, left and right, and back and forth by the rotation of a pair of left and right eccentric rotating bodies.

揉み用シャフト１５の左端部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部が第１平板部材Ｐ１の内部に配置される。また、たたき用シャフト１３の左端部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部も第１平板部材Ｐ１の内部に配置される。 A bearing portion that rotatably supports the left end portion of the kneading shaft 15 is arranged inside the first flat plate member P1. Further, a bearing portion that rotatably supports the left end portion of the tapping shaft 13 is also arranged inside the first flat plate member P1.

揉み用シャフト１５の右端部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部が第２平板部材Ｐ２の内部に配置される。また、たたき用シャフト１３の右端部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部も第２平板部材Ｐ２の内部に配置される。 A bearing portion that rotatably supports the right end portion of the kneading shaft 15 is arranged inside the second flat plate member P2. Further, a bearing portion that rotatably supports the right end portion of the tapping shaft 13 is also arranged inside the second flat plate member P2.

揉み用シャフト１５の中間部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部が第３平板部材Ｐ３の内部に配置される。また、たたき用シャフト１３の中間部を回転可能に支持する軸受け部も第３平板部材Ｐ３の内部に配置される。 A bearing portion that rotatably supports the intermediate portion of the kneading shaft 15 is arranged inside the third flat plate member P3. Further, a bearing portion that rotatably supports the intermediate portion of the tapping shaft 13 is also arranged inside the third flat plate member P3.

揉み用シャフト１５の左端部、右端部、及び中間部、すなわち揉み用シャフト１５の３箇所で揉み駆動機構を支持する構成であるため、第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２に高い剛性が要求されない。したがって、揉み駆動機構を収納して支持する大型のケースが不要となり、その結果、マッサージユニット１の小型化を図ることができる。 Since the kneading drive mechanism is supported at three points, the left end portion, the right end portion, and the intermediate portion of the kneading shaft 15, that is, the kneading shaft 15, the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2 have high rigidity. Not required. Therefore, a large case for storing and supporting the kneading drive mechanism becomes unnecessary, and as a result, the massage unit 1 can be miniaturized.

図６に示すように、第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側面には第３平板部材Ｐ３の内外を連通する連通孔Ｈ１及びＨ２が設けられる。第３平板部材Ｐ３の右側面には連通孔Ｈ１及びＨ２を左右方向にそって移動させた位置に連通孔が設けられる。第３平板部材Ｐ３は、上方に突出する突出部Ｐ３Ａを後部且つ上部に備える。突出部Ｐ３Ａには、連通孔Ｈ２及び連通孔Ｈ２に対応する右側面の連通孔が設けられる。 As shown in FIG. 6, on the left side surface of the third flat plate member P3, communication holes H1 and H2 that communicate inside and outside the third flat plate member P3 are provided. A communication hole is provided on the right side surface of the third flat plate member P3 at a position where the communication holes H1 and H2 are moved along the left-right direction. The third flat plate member P3 is provided with a protruding portion P3A projecting upward at the rear and the upper portion. The protrusion P3A is provided with a communication hole H2 and a communication hole on the right side surface corresponding to the communication hole H2.

揉み用シャフト１５が連通孔Ｈ１及び連通孔Ｈ１に対応する右側面の連通孔を通じて第３平板部材Ｐ３を貫通する。たたき用シャフト１３が連通孔Ｈ２及び連通孔Ｈ２に対応する右側面の連通孔を通じて第３平板部材Ｐ３を貫通する。第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側面には連通孔Ｈ１より後方且つ連通孔Ｈ２より下方に第３の連通孔が設けられる。第３の連通孔に揉み用モータ１４の回転シャフトが挿入される。連通孔Ｈ２は連通孔Ｈ１及び第３の連通孔より上方に配置されるため、連通孔Ｈ２を突出部Ｐ３Ａに設けることで第３平板部材Ｐ３の体積を小さくすることができる。 The kneading shaft 15 penetrates the third flat plate member P3 through the communication hole H1 and the communication hole on the right side surface corresponding to the communication hole H1. The tapping shaft 13 penetrates the third flat plate member P3 through the communication hole H2 and the communication hole on the right side surface corresponding to the communication hole H2. A third communication hole is provided on the left side surface of the third flat plate member P3, behind the communication hole H1 and below the communication hole H2. The rotating shaft of the kneading motor 14 is inserted into the third communication hole. Since the communication hole H2 is arranged above the communication hole H1 and the third communication hole, the volume of the third flat plate member P3 can be reduced by providing the communication hole H2 in the protruding portion P3A.

第３平板部材Ｐ３は、前後方向及び上下方向に延びる板状部材であり、左右方向長さが前後方向の長さより短く且つ上下方向の長さより短い。第３平板部材Ｐ３の前端には第４平板部材Ｐ４の本体部が第３平板部材Ｐ３に対して略垂直に固定されている。 The third flat plate member P3 is a plate-shaped member extending in the front-rear direction and the up-down direction, and the length in the left-right direction is shorter than the length in the front-rear direction and shorter than the length in the up-down direction. At the front end of the third flat plate member P3, the main body of the fourth flat plate member P4 is fixed substantially perpendicular to the third flat plate member P3.

図７に示すように、第４平板部材Ｐ４は、第４平板部材Ｐ４の本体部以外に、第４平板部材Ｐ４の本体部の左辺から後方に延びる第１折り返し部Ｐ４Ａと、第４平板部材Ｐ４の本体部の右辺から後方に延びる第２折り返し部Ｐ４Ｂと、を備える。 As shown in FIG. 7, the fourth flat plate member P4 includes a first folded portion P4A extending rearward from the left side of the main body portion of the fourth flat plate member P4, and a fourth flat plate member, in addition to the main body portion of the fourth flat plate member P4. A second folded portion P4B extending rearward from the right side of the main body portion of P4 is provided.

第１折り返し部Ｐ４Ａの下部が回転軸ＡＸ１回りに回動可能にベース部材部品２Ｄに取り付けられ、第２折り返し部Ｐ４Ｂの下部が回転軸ＡＸ１回りに回動可能にベース部材部品２Ｅに取り付けられる（図２参照）。なお、回転軸ＡＸ１は左右方向に沿って延びる軸である。したがって、第３平板部材Ｐ３は、第４平板部材Ｐ４を介して、回転軸ＡＸ１回りに回動可能にベース部材に取り付けられる。 The lower part of the first folded portion P4A is rotatably attached to the base member component 2D around the rotating shaft AX1, and the lower portion of the second folded portion P4B is rotatably attached to the base member component 2E around the rotating shaft AX1. See Figure 2). The rotation axis AX1 is an axis extending in the left-right direction. Therefore, the third flat plate member P3 is rotatably attached to the base member around the rotation axis AX1 via the fourth flat plate member P4.

図７に示すように、第４平板部材Ｐ４の左右方向長さＬ２は第３平板部材Ｐ３の前端の左右方向長さＬ１より長い。これにより、揉み駆動機構又はたたき駆動機構が動作中に振動によって第３平板部材Ｐ３の位置がぐらつくことを抑制することができる。 As shown in FIG. 7, the left-right length L2 of the fourth flat plate member P4 is longer than the left-right length L1 of the front end of the third flat plate member P3. As a result, it is possible to prevent the position of the third flat plate member P3 from wobbling due to vibration during the operation of the kneading drive mechanism or the tapping drive mechanism.

マッサージユニット１は、連結ロッド１６及び１７をさらに備える。連結ロッド１６及び１７は、左右方向に沿って延びる棒状部材であって、第１平板部材Ｐ１と第２平板部材Ｐ２を連結する。言い換えると、マッサージユニット１は、揉み駆動機構及びたたき駆動機構を収納するケースを備えていない。したがって、第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２は、揉み駆動機構及びたたき駆動機構を収納するケースの一部を構成しない。 The massage unit 1 further includes connecting rods 16 and 17. The connecting rods 16 and 17 are rod-shaped members extending in the left-right direction, and connect the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2. In other words, the massage unit 1 does not include a case for accommodating the kneading drive mechanism and the tapping drive mechanism. Therefore, the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2 do not form a part of the case for accommodating the kneading drive mechanism and the tapping drive mechanism.

連結ロッド１６は、たたき用シャフト１３より前方且つ揉み用シャフト１５より後方に配置される。また、図２～図５に示す状態において、連結ロッド１６は、たたき用シャフト１３及び揉み用シャフト１５より上方に配置される。連結ロッド１７は、たたき用シャフト１３より後方に配置される。また、図２～図５に示す状態において、連結ロッド１７は、揉み用シャフト１５より下方に配置される。 The connecting rod 16 is arranged in front of the tapping shaft 13 and behind the kneading shaft 15. Further, in the state shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the connecting rod 16 is arranged above the tapping shaft 13 and the kneading shaft 15. The connecting rod 17 is arranged behind the striking shaft 13. Further, in the state shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the connecting rod 17 is arranged below the kneading shaft 15.

第１折り返し部Ｐ４Ａ及び第２折り返し部Ｐ４Ｂの各上部が連結ロッド１６に回動不可能に取り付けられる（図２参照）。これにより、揉み駆動機構又はたたき駆動機構が動作中に振動によって第３平板部材Ｐ３の位置がぐらつくことを抑制することができる。 The upper portions of the first folded portion P4A and the second folded portion P4B are non-rotatably attached to the connecting rod 16 (see FIG. 2). As a result, it is possible to prevent the position of the third flat plate member P3 from wobbling due to vibration during the operation of the kneading drive mechanism or the tapping drive mechanism.

マッサージユニット１は、進退軸１８と、ピニオンギア１９及び２０と、進退用モータ２１と、をさらに備える。進退軸１８は左右方向に沿って延びる。進退軸１８の左側にはピニオンギア１９が固定され、進退軸１８の右側にはピニオンギア２０が固定される。進退軸１８に進退用モータ２１が連動連結される。回転伝達部Ｒ２によって進退軸１８に進退用モータ２１が連動連結される。回転伝達部Ｒ２は、軸受部及び回転軸方向を変更するためのギア機構を含む。 The massage unit 1 further includes an advancing / retreating shaft 18, pinion gears 19 and 20, and an advancing / retreating motor 21. The advance / retreat axis 18 extends along the left-right direction. The pinion gear 19 is fixed to the left side of the advancing / retreating shaft 18, and the pinion gear 20 is fixed to the right side of the advancing / retreating shaft 18. The advancing / retreating motor 21 is interlocked and connected to the advancing / retreating shaft 18. The advance / retreat motor 21 is interlocked and connected to the advance / retreat shaft 18 by the rotation transmission unit R2. The rotation transmission unit R2 includes a bearing unit and a gear mechanism for changing the direction of the rotation axis.

第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２の各上部に円弧状のラックが設けられている。ピニオンギア１９は第１平板部材Ｐ１に設けられるラックに噛み合っており、ピニオンギア２０は第２平板部材Ｐ２に設けられるラックに対して噛み合っている。進退軸１８の回転に伴って、ピニオンギア１９及び２０が回転しながら、ラックに対して移動する。ピニオンギア１９及び２０のラックに対する移動により、第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２が回転軸ＡＸ１を中心に前後方向に回動し、施療子９及び１０が前後方向に進退移動する。すなわち、第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２が回転軸ＡＸ１を中心に前後方向に回動することで、施療子９及び１０の突出量が大幅に変更する。例えば、図２～図５に示す状態から第１平板部材Ｐ１及び第２平板部材Ｐ２を前方向に回動させることで図８～図９に示す状態に変化させることができる。 An arcuate rack is provided on each of the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2. The pinion gear 19 meshes with the rack provided on the first flat plate member P1, and the pinion gear 20 meshes with the rack provided on the second flat plate member P2. As the advance / retreat shaft 18 rotates, the pinion gears 19 and 20 rotate and move with respect to the rack. By moving the pinion gears 19 and 20 with respect to the rack, the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2 rotate in the front-rear direction around the rotation axis AX1, and the treatment elements 9 and 10 move forward and backward. That is, the protrusion amount of the treatment elements 9 and 10 is significantly changed by rotating the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2 in the front-rear direction about the rotation axis AX1. For example, the state shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 can be changed to the state shown in FIGS. 8 to 9 by rotating the first flat plate member P1 and the second flat plate member P2 in the forward direction.

＜３．その他＞
上記実施形態は、全ての点で例示であって、制限的なものではないと考えられるべきであり、本発明の技術的範囲は、上記実施形態の説明ではなく、特許請求の範囲によって示されるものであり、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味及び範囲内に属する全ての変更が含まれると理解されるべきである。 <3. Others>
It should be considered that the embodiments are exemplary in all respects and are not restrictive, and the technical scope of the invention is indicated by the claims rather than the description of the embodiments. It should be understood that it includes all modifications that fall within the meaning and scope of the claims.

例えば上記実施形態においては、いわゆる椅子式マッサージ機を例に挙げて説明したが、本発明に係るマッサージユニットはいわゆるベッド式マッサージ機などにも搭載可能である。 For example, in the above embodiment, a so-called chair-type massage machine has been described as an example, but the massage unit according to the present invention can also be mounted on a so-called bed-type massage machine or the like.

また、例えば上記実施形態においては、第３平板部材Ｐ３が、第４平板部材Ｐ４を介して回転軸ＡＸ１回りに回動可能にベース部材に取り付けられているが、図１０～図１２に示すように、第３平板部材Ｐ３を、左右方向に延びる所定の回転軸回りに回動可能にベース部材に直接取り付けてもよい。なお、図１０～図１２において、図２、図６、及び図７と同一の部分には同一の符号を付している。図１１に示すように、第３平板部材Ｐ３の前部且つ下部に、前方および下方に突出する突出部Ｐ３Ｂを設け、突出部Ｐ３Ｂをベース部材への取り付け箇所にすることで、第３平板部材Ｐ３の体積を小さくすることができる。 Further, for example, in the above embodiment, the third flat plate member P3 is rotatably attached to the base member around the rotation axis AX1 via the fourth flat plate member P4, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12. In addition, the third flat plate member P3 may be directly attached to the base member so as to be rotatable around a predetermined rotation axis extending in the left-right direction. In FIGS. 10 to 12, the same parts as those in FIGS. 2, 6, and 7 are designated by the same reference numerals. As shown in FIG. 11, the third flat plate member is provided with protruding portions P3B protruding forward and downward at the front and lower portions of the third flat plate member P3, and the protruding portion P3B is used as a mounting point for the base member. The volume of P3 can be reduced.

また、例えば上記実施形態においては、たたき用モータ１１が左右方向において第３平板部材Ｐ３を跨いで第３平板部材Ｐ３の左右両側に配置され、揉み用モータ１４が第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に配置されているが、図１３に示す変形例のように、第３平板部材Ｐ３の右側にたたき用モータ１１を配置し、第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に揉み用モータ１４を配置してもよく、図１３に示す変形例とは逆に、第３平板部材Ｐ３の右側に揉み用モータ１４を配置し、第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側にたたき用モータ１１を配置してもよい。たたき用モータ１１及び揉み用モータ１４の一方を第３平板部材Ｐ３の右側に配置し、たたき用モータ１１及び揉み用モータ１４の他方を第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に配置することで、マッサージユニット１の重量バランスが良好になる。 Further, for example, in the above embodiment, the tapping motor 11 is arranged on the left and right sides of the third flat plate member P3 straddling the third flat plate member P3 in the left-right direction, and the kneading motor 14 is located on the left side of the third flat plate member P3. Although they are arranged, as in the modified example shown in FIG. 13, the tapping motor 11 may be arranged on the right side of the third flat plate member P3, and the kneading motor 14 may be arranged on the left side of the third flat plate member P3. , Contrary to the modification shown in FIG. 13, the kneading motor 14 may be arranged on the right side of the third flat plate member P3, and the tapping motor 11 may be arranged on the left side of the third flat plate member P3. By arranging one of the beating motor 11 and the kneading motor 14 on the right side of the third flat plate member P3 and the other of the beating motor 11 and the kneading motor 14 on the left side of the third flat plate member P3, the massage unit The weight balance of 1 becomes good.

また、例えば上記実施形態においては、たたき用モータ１１及び揉み用モータ１４の集合体の重心が第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に位置し、進退用モータの重心も第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に位置しているが、たたき用モータ１１及び揉み用モータ１４の集合体の重心と進退用モータの重心との一方が第３平板部材Ｐ３の左側に位置し、たたき用モータ１１及び揉み用モータ１４の集合体の重心と進退用モータの重心との他方が第３平板部材Ｐ３の右側に位置するように各モータを配置してマッサージユニット１の重量バランスを良好にしてもよい。 Further, for example, in the above embodiment, the center of gravity of the aggregate of the beating motor 11 and the kneading motor 14 is located on the left side of the third flat plate member P3, and the center of gravity of the advancing / retreating motor is also located on the left side of the third flat plate member P3. However, one of the center of gravity of the aggregate of the beating motor 11 and the kneading motor 14 and the center of gravity of the advancing / retreating motor is located on the left side of the third flat plate member P3, and the beating motor 11 and the kneading motor 14 have Each motor may be arranged so that the other side of the center of gravity of the aggregate and the center of gravity of the advancing / retreating motor is located on the right side of the third flat plate member P3 to improve the weight balance of the massage unit 1.

また、例えば上記実施形態と異なり、揉み用シャフト１５の右側と左側とで逆方向にねじをきり、アームＡＭ１の後端及びアームＡＭ２の後端が揉み用シャフト１５の回転によって揉み用シャフト１５に沿って直動するようにしてもよい。このような変形例によると、揉み用シャフト１５が一方向に回転することで施療子９と施療子１０との間隔が拡がり、揉み用シャフト１５が当該一方向とは逆方向に回転することで施療子９と施療子１０との間隔が狭まる。すなわち、アームＡＭ１及びＡＭ２を左右に揺動させることができる。そして、たたき用モータ１１及び進退用モータ２１を駆動させることで、アームＡＭ１及びＡＭ２を上下、左右に揺動させることができるので、偏心回動体を用いずに揉み駆動機構を実現できることができる。すなわち、揉み駆動機構を簡易な構造にすることができる。 Further, for example, unlike the above embodiment, the right side and the left side of the kneading shaft 15 are screwed in opposite directions, and the rear end of the arm AM1 and the rear end of the arm AM2 are turned into the kneading shaft 15 by the rotation of the kneading shaft 15. You may make it move straight along. According to such a modification, the kneading shaft 15 rotates in one direction to widen the distance between the treatment element 9 and the treatment element 10, and the kneading shaft 15 rotates in the opposite direction to the one direction. The distance between the treatment child 9 and the treatment child 10 is narrowed. That is, the arms AM1 and AM2 can be swung left and right. Then, by driving the tapping motor 11 and the advancing / retreating motor 21, the arms AM1 and AM2 can be swung up and down and left and right, so that a kneading drive mechanism can be realized without using an eccentric rotating body. That is, the kneading drive mechanism can be made into a simple structure.
