Description

Lymph node massage device

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a lymph node massage apparatus for massaging a neck portion of a person to be massaged and its periphery to stimulate a lymph node at the location.

First, lymph fluid is a clear, pale yellow, weakly alkaline fluid that flows through lymphatic vessels, and tissue fluid enters through capillary lymphatic vessels that are widely distributed throughout the body, and its components are similar to plasma. It is a fluid that contains a lot of lymphocytes that are one of the white blood cells. Since the lymph fluid has the above-mentioned components, it has an excretory function of collecting waste substances in the body and excreting them outside the body, and an immune function such as elimination of bacteria and viruses that have entered the human body outside the human body. Have.

Lymph nodes are organs located in the lymph vessels that prey on bacteria contained in the lymph fluid that passes through them to protect the human body and proliferate lymphocytes. is there. Although lymph nodes are widely distributed throughout the body, they are concentrated particularly in the cervix, and these places are called cervical lymph nodes. In addition, the outlet of the lymphatic tube is gathered in the vicinity of the clavicle and communicates with the veins, and serves as a waste outlet, which is called a clavicular lymph node. There are also lymph nodes around the ears, which play an important role particularly in adjusting the condition of the facial skin, and are called parotid lymph nodes.

However, while blood flows through blood vessels due to the action of the heart, lymph fluid flows through lymphatic vessels due to muscle movement, and muscle movement becomes dull due to lack of exercise, etc., or inappropriate eating habits If waste products are accumulated due to stress or stress, the flow of lymph fluid also stagnate, and the excretory function and immune function performed by the lymph fluid as described above are reduced. In this case, various health problems such as swelling, constipation, change to an easily fattened constitution, and illness are likely to occur.

Therefore, by stimulating the parotid lymph node, the cervical lymph node, and the clavicular lymph node by massaging the neck of the person to be massaged and its surroundings, the lymph fluid is urged to flow smoothly. It is done to remove the accumulated waste. This massage is performed so that the lymph fluid flows through the lymphatic vessels, along the lymphatic vessels, and when the lymph nodes are in the vicinity of the skin, the massage is performed by touching the neck and the surrounding skin. Is preferred.

However, the above massage is performed exclusively by a human hand such as a masseur, and is rarely performed by some machines. It is difficult to operate the machine properly due to the complicated shape of the human neck and its surroundings, and in the machine the lymphatic vessels in the neck and surrounding skin of the person to be massaged with human hands It is thought that this is because it was difficult to perform an operation like that along the line. If it does so, there existed a problem that the massage for stimulating a lymph node effectively could not be received easily.

However, as a massage device that improves the pumping effect of the lymph and can effectively obtain a beauty effect, the massage device includes a plurality of rotating bodies that are driven to rotate around parallel axes, The rotation mechanism is rotationally driven in the same direction, and each rotating body is provided with at least one pressing body that gives a pressing stimulus to the skin surface, and the phase position of the pressing body provided on each rotating body However, a beauty device (for example, refer to Patent Document 1 below) and the like characterized by being different between adjacent rotating bodies has been proposed.

In addition, as a massage device that can perform the operation of touching the skin of the person to be massaged with human hands, a large number of small rolls are arranged at right angles to the traveling direction, and these can be rotated at regular intervals. An electric massage machine (see, for example, Patent Document 2 below) that connects small rolls that are flexibly connected to each other in a ring shape using a chain or belt, and drives the chain or belt with an electric sprocket to massage the body. ) Or a box-shaped table conveyor, and a protrusion is provided on the upper surface of the top plate of the chain along the traveling direction of the chain, separated by every other top plate, and the height of the protrusion is increased. At least two or more arrangements that are sequentially arranged so as to be gradually reduced and restored to the original height again, and at least one or more arrangements on the back surface of the top plate En unit and table conveyor type massager having the structure provided with two or more guide portions (e.g., see Patent Document 3 below) have been proposed.

However, a lymph node massage device has also been proposed as a massage device according to the above-described prior art, but it effectively massages the lymph node at the corresponding location by touching the neck and surrounding skin. (For example, see the above-mentioned Patent Document 1).

Therefore, the first problem of the present invention relates to a massage device for a lymph node for massaging the neck portion and its periphery of a massaged person and stimulating a lymph node at the location, and the neck portion of the massaged person and the massage device. An object of the present invention is to provide a lymph node massage device capable of effectively stimulating a lymph node at the location by performing massage while touching the periphery along the lymph node.

Moreover, although the massage apparatus which can perform the operation | movement which touches a to-be-massed person's skin with a human hand is also proposed in the massage apparatus which concerns on said prior art, all of them are large-scale apparatuses. However, it is not a device that has been made compact in order to appropriately massage the neck of the person to be massaged and its surroundings (see, for example,

Patent Documents

2 and 3 above).

Therefore, a second problem of the present invention relates to a lymph node massage apparatus for stimulating a lymph node at the location by massaging a neck portion of the massage recipient and the periphery thereof, and the neck portion of the massage recipient and the massage device thereof. An object of the present invention is to provide a lymph node massage device that is compact in order to massage the periphery appropriately.

In addition, the massage device according to the above-described prior art has a problem that the massage direction and speed are always constant and cannot be changed according to the user's request, particularly regarding the lymph node massage device (for example, , See Patent Document 1 above).

Accordingly, a third problem of the present invention is related to a lymph node massage device for massaging the neck portion of the person to be massaged and its surroundings to stimulate the lymph node at the location, and the massage of the massage is performed as desired by the user.
