Abstract: A massage machine includes a seat unit on which a treatment subject person is configured to sit, a backrest unit configured to support a back of the person sitting on the seat unit, a base that is disposed in front of the backrest unit; and a treatment mechanism that is attached to the base configured to perform a massage on a shoulder of the person in a state where the person sits on the seat unit. The treatment mechanism includes a drive unit which includes an output shaft attached to the base and rotated by supplied power, and a treatment device configured to press the shoulder from above. In accordance with rotation of the output shaft, the treatment device oscillates in an upward/downward direction so as to perform the treatment on the shoulder.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A massage unit includes a treatment member; an arm that supports the treatment member; a drive shaft that supports the arm and causes the treatment member to approach and be separated with respect to a treatment target site; a movable portion that causes the treatment member to be operable in a direction of being separated from the treatment target site when the treatment member comes into contact with the treatment target site by a force equal to or greater than predetermined strength; and biasing means for biasing the treatment member in an approaching direction.

Abstract: A massage machine that can stably rock a chair main body in a forward-backward direction and that has minimal overall height comprising a chair main body, a base which supports the chair main body, massage portions provided in the chair main body, and a rocking mechanism portion which rocks the chair main body in the forward-backward direction with respect to the base. The rocking mechanism portion includes link members, each of which has a lower portion pivotally supported by the base and an upper portion pivotally supporting the chair main body. The chair main body is rocked in the forward-backward direction by rocking the upper portions of the link members in the forward-backward direction.

Abstract: A massaging apparatus capable of performing rubbing-massage properly with respect to a body part of a user having various shapes is provided. A massaging apparatus of the present invention includes a first massaging unit including a pair of massaging plates which are disposed at both sides of a body part of a user so as to sandwich the body part, a driving force transmission unit configured to cause the massaging plates to reciprocate in a direction along a side surface of the body part, and air bags which are disposed outside the massaging plates and are expanded and contracted by air supply and exhaust, to change a distance between the pair of massaging plates, wherein the massaging plates are reciprocatable along the side surface of the body part in a state where the air bags are expanded.

Abstract: A massage machine includes a body supporting portion which supports a body of a person to be treated and a massage mechanism which moves inside the body supporting portion along a body height direction of the person to be treated. The body supporting portion is divided in the body height direction into a base portion and a movable portion. The body supporting portion extends and contracts when the movable portion moves relative to the base portion. The massage machine is capable of adapting to the body size of the person to be treated by changing the treatment range of the massage mechanism by extending or contracting the body supporting portion.

Abstract: A massaging apparatus capable of performing rubbing-massage properly with respect to a body part of a user having various shapes is provided. A massaging apparatus 1 of the present invention comprise a first massaging unit 3 including a pair of massaging plates 10 which are disposed at both sides of a body part of a user so as to sandwich the body part, a driving force transmission unit 13 configured to cause the massaging plates 10 to reciprocate in a direction along a side surface of the body part, and air bags 11 which are disposed outside the massaging plates 10 and are expanded and contracted by air supply and exhaust, to change a distance between the pair of massaging plates 10, wherein the massaging plates 10 are reciprocatable along the side surface of the body part in a state where the air bags 11 are expanded.

Abstract: A chair-type massaging apparatus of the present invention, including a massaging element that is mounted in a back rest configured to support a back of a user and is configured to be movable in a substantially forward and backward direction to apply stimulation to the back, a control device that includes a grip that is tilted by the user to be displaceable from a predetermined neutral position in the forward and backward direction substantially corresponding with the direction in which the massaging element moves and is configured to output a signal indicating a displacement of the grip, and a controller configured to, based on the signal from the control device, execute control to move the massaging element in a direction substantially corresponding with a direction in which the grip is operated to move.
