Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an acupressure acupressure device which can be held between the palm of a hand, particularly the part of the little finger ball of a hand, and which can stimulate the acupoints of each part of the hand.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Many nerves are concentrated in the fingers and the palm, and many research presentations have recently been made about stimulating "acupoints" on the fingers and the palm. It has become known that there is a very close relationship with each muscle and brain of the body. That is, it is said that the fingers and palms are mirrors that represent the physical condition of the body, and that it is possible to read the physical condition by looking at the fingers and palms. Therefore, stimulating the fingers cures the internal dysfunction and activates the activities of the brain and various organs of the body.
It is very effective in maintaining good health forever.

To further explain, a large number of nerves are concentrated on the fingers and palm, and it is known that by stimulating these nerves, it has an excellent effect of curing internal diseases and preventing the aging phenomenon. There is. In other words, by stimulating the fingers and palm, the "muscle spindle" (sensory organ), which is believed to be in the muscles of the fingers, also activates, shaking the brain and increasing the perception of the skin and the sense of movement. This is something that many psychologists and physiologists recognize.

[0004]

From the above, it is known that it is preferable to stimulate the acupuncture points of the fingers and the palm, but it is suitable to stimulate the acupuncture points of the fingers and the palm by grasping in the hand. There was no shiatsu equipment. From the above viewpoints, the present inventor proposes, as a result of various studies, an acupressure device which can be held in a hand and stimulate acupuncture points of fingers and palms.
For example, it is known that the finger has an acupuncture point called "Datsun", but by stimulating this "Datsun", it has the effect of suppressing drowsiness and making the brain clear. In other words, the hand has muscles that move according to commands from the brain and muscles that maintain posture,
By stimulating these muscles and sending wake-up signals to the brain, sleepiness can be awakened.

[0005]

Therefore, the acupoint acupressure device of the hand according to the present invention has a thickness and a length suitable for being gripped by the fingers and each part of the palm including the part of the little finger ball, and The acupressure device main body is formed by narrowing the middle part and gradually inflating both ends from the aforesaid middle part, and a plurality of projections for providing appropriate stimulation to fingers etc. are provided on the outer periphery of the acupressure device main body, and the acupressure device One of a plurality of locking holes at both ends of a vinyl resin finger strap bent into a curved shape is fitted and locked to a locking projection provided at an eccentric position on both end plates of the main body. Characterized by the configuration.

According to the present invention, by inserting the finger straps into a plurality of fingers and applying a proper force to the fingers to strongly grip the body of the acupressure device, it is possible to stimulate the acupoints of the fingers and palms. . In addition, the body of the acupressure device can be securely held by the finger straps, and the size of the curved portion of the finger straps can be adjusted by changing the locking hole that fits the locking projection among the plurality of locking holes. It can correspond to the size of large and small hands and fingers.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In each drawing, the acupressure device main body 1 has a large number of pointed projections 2 and 2 in the shape of a pyramid (which is referred to as a pyramid shape) on the outer circumference. The acupressure device body 1 has a size and a length suitable for being sandwiched between the fingers of the hand 7 or for being held by the palm or the little finger ball, and further, the middle part is thin and the both ends are gradually thickened. It is inflated so that it can be stably sandwiched between the fingers of the hand 7 and can be grasped by the hand.

The acupressure device main body 1 is formed of, for example, plastic into a hollow shape, and both ends thereof are closed by cover plates 4 and 4.
A shaft body 5 such as a permanent magnet or a metal rod is housed inside.

When the shaft body 5 is made of a permanent magnet, its magnetic effect improves blood circulation in the hand 7 and, in combination with acupoint stimulation, is more effective in promoting health. Further, when a metal rod is used for the shaft body 5, there is no magnetic effect, but it is possible to give an appropriate weight to the acupressure device body 1, and the projection 2 can stably stimulate the acupoint of the hand.

A plurality of locking projections 3 are provided at the eccentric positions of the both cover plates 4, and the locking projections 3 are provided at both ends of a vinyl resin finger hook 6 bent in a curved shape. Any one of the plurality of locking holes 8 is locked.

The operation of the embodiment of the invention will be described.
For example, the acupressure device body 1 is applied to the position shown in FIG. 1, that is, the position of the little finger ball of the hand, and the ring finger and the little finger are inserted inside the finger strap 6 to clamp the acupressure device body 1. Next, by flexing and extending each of the fingers, the pyramidal protrusions 2 of the acupressure device body 1 stimulate the acupuncture points of the little finger ball, and the ring finger and the little finger are trained to balance the entire five fingers, and the five fingers are rhythmically. It not only moves and stimulates not only the little finger ball but also the fingers and palms to promote blood circulation and increase blood flow to the brain, which is useful for health promotion.

Further, since the locking projections 3 provided at both ends of the acupressure device main body 1 are provided at the eccentric positions of the cover plate 4, the acupressure device main body 1 is rotated around the locking projections 3. As a result, it is possible to change the distance between the outer circumference and the finger strap 6, that is, the distance at which the ring finger and the little finger are inserted, to different sizes.
Therefore, it can be adjusted to the thickness of fingers, etc.,
It is also possible to change the strength with which the pyramidal protrusions 2 on the outer periphery press the acupuncture points of the little finger ball.

Furthermore, since a plurality of locking holes 8 are provided at both ends of the finger hooking band 6, the curved finger hooking band can also be obtained by changing the position of the locking hole 8 which is fitted and locked to the locking projection 3. Since the size of the gap inside 6 can be changed according to the thickness of the fingers, etc., it can be easily adapted to the hand of each person having a different hand size.

[0014]

As described above, according to the acupoint and acupressure device for fingers of the present invention, the body of the acupressure device can be gripped by the hand to perform the bending and stretching movements of the finger, whereby the little finger ball and the palm of the hand can be moved. It stimulates blood circulation by stimulating the body parts and fingers of the hand, further improving health promotion, and has a remarkable effect on fingertip strengthening training and fatigue recovery.
