Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <<Industrial Application Field>> This invention relates to a compression-type cervical massage device that compresses the cervix to relieve stiffness.

<<Conventional technology>> Conventionally, this type of massage device has a hemispherical protrusion attached to the base plate, which is placed under the body to apply weight and stimulate the back and neck with the protrusion. There is something I did.

Further, a triangular pillow is known as a pillow that particularly applies pressure stimulation to the neck, and the pillow is used by placing the neck against the ridgeline of the pillow.

<<Problem to be solved by the invention>> Among these conventional devices, the former one is
Although it is effective for areas that are relatively flat, such as the back, strong pressure stimulation cannot be obtained for areas that are not flat, such as the neck. Furthermore, the latter triangular pillow does not provide sufficient stimulation to the sides and diagonal back of the neck.

The purpose of this invention is to obtain a compression massage device that can provide effective pressure stimulation not only to the back of the neck, but also to the sides and diagonally behind the neck.

≪Means for solving the problem≫ The compression type massage device of this invention includes a pillow body having a chevron-shaped cross section, and a pillow body supported so as to straddle the ridgeline of the pillow body and also to be able to change the mutual spacing. The pillow is composed of a pair of left and right inverted V-shaped bending members, and is configured to apply pressure stimulation to the neck at the ridgeline of the pillow body, the ridgeline of the bending member, and the terminal corner of the ridgeline.

The bending member is preferably coupled to a bottom plate placed under the pillow body.

In use, it is preferable that the bending member is movable up and down on the bottom plate so that the bending member comes into contact with the pillow body, and that there is a gap between the bending member and the bottom plate.

<<Operation>> By adjusting the interval between the left and right bending members and placing the neck between them, the neck comes into contact with the ridgeline of the pillow body, the ridgeline of the bending member, and the terminal corner of the ridgeline, and the back and sides of the neck are Pressure stimulation can be obtained after diagonal.

If the bending member is combined with the bottom plate placed under the pillow body, when the neck is placed on the device, the bending member will not move due to the weight of the head.

If the bending member is connected to the bottom plate in a vertically movable manner and there is a gap between the bending member and the bottom plate, the bending member will come into contact with the pillow body during use, causing excessive stress on the bending member. does not occur.

<<Example>> In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 is a pillow body,
Its cross section is mountain-shaped. Reference numeral 1a is the ridgeline.

Reference numeral 2 represents a pair of left and right wooden bending members. Each bending member 2 has an inverted V-shape as a whole,
It rests on the pillow body 1, straddling the ridgeline 1a.

Both the pillow body 1 and the bending member 2 are made of wood, but they can also be made of plastic, hard rubber, or the like.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a bottom plate placed under the pillow body 1, and the bending member 2 is coupled to this bottom plate 3. Therefore, when the neck 6 is placed on the device, the bottom plate 3 is pressed down by the pillow body 1, so that the bending member 2 does not move.

Note that the bending member 2 is not simply connected to the bottom plate 3, but is connected so that it can move up and down. That is, a pin 4 is erected on the bottom plate 3, and is loosely fitted into a hole 2b made in an extension 2a of the bending member 2. A gap 5 is provided between the bottom plate 3 and the bending member 2. With this configuration, there is no gap between the bending member 2 and the pillow body 1, and the bending member contacts the pillow body, so when the neck 6 rests on the bending member 2, its weight is transferred to the pillow body. The stress is transmitted to the body 1 and no excessive stress is generated on the bending member 2.

The usage will be explained with reference to FIG. Reference numeral 7 is the cervical vertebrae, and reference numeral 8 is its midline.

A is shown in a state in which the bending members 2 are spaced narrowly so that the neck 6 does not touch the pillow body 1. In this way, the ridgeline 2c of the bending member and the terminal angle 2d of the ridgeline come into contact, and pressure stimulation is applied to the rear part of the neck.

In B, the distance between the bending members 2 is widened so that the neck 6 hits the ridgeline 1a of the pillow body and the ridgeline end angle 2d of the bending member.

C, D, and E all appear to be using one of the bending members.

In F, the neck is rolled from side to side between the bending members.

In this way, by changing the interval between the bending members, the direction of the neck, etc., pressure stimulation of various strengths can be applied to various parts of the neck.

Note that the ridge lines 1a, 2c and the corner 2d can be rounded as appropriate so as to obtain appropriate stimulation. If the stimulation is too strong, you can adjust it by placing a towel between the device and your neck.

<<Effect of the invention>> The compression type massage device of claim 1 includes a pillow body having a chevron-shaped cross section, and left and right legs supported by the pillow body so as to straddle the ridgeline of the pillow body and to change the distance between them. It has a pair of inverted V-shaped bending members, and by adjusting the interval between the left and right bending members and placing the neck between them, the ridgeline of the pillow body, the ridgeline of the bending member, and the terminal corner of the ridgeline can be adjusted. When the neck comes into contact, effective pressure stimulation can be obtained from the back, side, and diagonal of the neck.

In the compression massager according to claim 2, the bending member is
It is connected to a bottom plate placed under the pillow, and when the neck is placed on the pillow, the bottom plate is fixed by its weight, and the bending member connected to the bottom plate does not move. Therefore, even without a stopper, the distance between the bending members does not widen during use.

In the device according to claim 3, the bending member is coupled to the bottom plate so as to be freely movable up and down, and a gap is provided between the bending member and the bottom plate, and when in use, the bending member is connected to the pillow body. Since the pillow body makes contact with the bending member, the load applied to the bending member is supported by the pillow body, and there is an effect that no unreasonable force is applied to the bending member.
