There are provided a massaging apparatus capable of providing comfortable kneading and massaging effects and reducing damage to a cover covering massaging elements, and a chair massager having the massaging apparatus.

The massaging apparatus comprises horizontally arranged paired massaging members (10,11) having massaging elements (91 to 94) and a massaging mechanism (12) for producing kneading action by operating at least one of the massaging members (10,11) so that the massaging elements (91 to 94) have horizontal approaching-separating movement. The massaging member (10,11) includes an arm member (15,16) extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of approaching-separating movement. The massaging element (91 to 94) is attached to the tip of the arm member (15,16) for rotation about the axis of an extension line (L) extending along the extending direction of the arm member (15,16) and about an axis pointing in a direction substantially perpendicular to the extension line (L).

Massage mechanisms of a massage machine individually include a pair of left and right treatment members provided along a height direction of the massage machine. A first massage mechanism is disposed on a relatively upper side, and a second massage mechanism is disposed on a relatively lower side. A control means that controls operations of the first and second massage mechanisms. The control means controls advancing/retreating drive portions such that the treatment members of the first massage mechanism and the treatment members of the second massage mechanism advance or retreat at speeds different from each other such as with a time lag.

An automatic massage apparatus may include a main body, a massaging unit, at least two first belts and at least two second belts. The main body has a guiding rail that is hollow to provide a space for a driving unit of the massaging unit, and a long groove is formed on both sides of the guiding rail. The massaging unit has a driving unit that has a driving shaft extending towards both sides of the driving unit. Both ends of the driving shaft have a plurality of wheels disposed against the rail of the main body, and these wheels are appropriately spaced. Both sides of the massaging unit have at least one compartment and a second compartment. One end of the first belt is secured on the first end of the positioning unit, and the other end is wrapping the driving shaft in the first compartment.

The present invention discloses a body massager comprising a portable housing including a backrest and a seat support. A longitudinal guide is provided in the backrest cooperating with a carriage for translation of the carriage within the backrest and a motor drives the carriage along the guide. A pair of massage members are supported by the carriage and extend from the backrest for imparting a rolling massage effect upon the back of the user. A second motor drives the massage members for generating a rotary kneading massage effect or for adjusting a width of the rolling massage effect.

An eye massager includes an eyeshade and a head band connected with the eyeshade. The eyeshade is provided with two massage boards, and the two massage boards are arranged symmetrically and move synchronously. The eyeshade includes an eyeshade casing, the two massage boards are located on an outer wall of an inner side of the eyeshade casing, and the eyeshade casing is provided therein with a driving assembly configured to drive the two massage boards. The driving assembly includes a motor, a gear assembly driven by the motor, a transmission shaft driven via the gear assembly, and two eccenter assemblies arranged at two ends of the transmission shaft respectively. The two massage boards are respectively fixed on the two eccenter assemblies, and are enabled to swing when being driven by the eccenter assemblies.

A massage device includes a base, a driving module, a massage head, an enclosure, and a heating module. The massage head is connected to the driving module, a side of the massage head away from the base is provided with a massage protrusion, and a first cavity is formed on a side of the massage head facing the base. The enclosure is arranged between the base and the massage head, an end of the enclosure away from the base is arranged close to an end of the massage head close to the base, a second cavity in communication with the first cavity is formed in the enclosure, and the second cavity and the first cavity jointly form a heating chamber. The heating module is accommodated in the heating chamber and fixed relative to the base.

A therapeutic apparatus and a method for providing parallel mobilization treatment of a muscle or a tendon in a limb utilizing the therapeutic apparatus.

The therapeutic apparatus includes a driven endless belt which travels along a path, with a plurality of contact elements projecting from and spaced along the machine direction of the endless belt. The apparatus can provide parallel mobilization treatment to a tender location by releasably securing the therapeutic apparatus to a limb overlaying the tender location, and activating the therapeutic apparatus to drive the contact elements along a path wherein the contact elements contact and effect parallel mobilization of a muscle or a tendon at the tender location as the contact elements travel along an interaction segment of the path.

A massage control method includes obtaining three-dimensional parameter data of a user, determining acupuncture points, a position of a first part, and a position of a second part of the user according to the three-dimensional parameter data, adjusting a position of a massage device according to the three-dimensional parameter data so that the position of the massage device corresponds to the three-dimensional parameter data, and aligning at least one massage component of the massage device with the acupuncture points according to the positions of the first part and the second part of the user.

The present invention is to provide a hand washing, disinfection and automatic massage machine. The machine is housed in a case, in which the washing and disinfectant compartment, a wastewater treatment compartment can be maintained as a control hand washing, sanitizing and massaging environment. The water can be supplied by a water pump and wastewater treatment compartment and the disinfection process is provided by UV lamps. In addition, the present invention provides a method of operating a hand washing, disinfection and automatic massage machine.

A robot body care system according to the present disclosure includes: a body care device which performs body care by applying physical stimulation to a user; and an information processing server including a reception unit that receives, from the outside as treatment information, a treatment method indicating a way of applying stimulation to the portions of the body of the user when body care is performed on the user, a command value generation unit that generates treatment command values as electrical signals on the basis of the treatment information entered into the reception unit, and a transmission unit that transmits the treatment command values to the body care device.
