1 is a block diagram showing an air massage device according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a flow chart showing the operation of the air massage device according to the present invention, Figure 3 is a massage pattern of the air massage device according to the present invention As a waveform diagram of the present invention, the air massage device of the present invention includes a power supply unit 100 for supplying a rectified driving voltage; An input selector 110 for receiving and inputting a driving voltage from the power supply unit 100 to select and input pressure and pressure levels for each human body part of the massage; A microprocessor (120) for controlling the pressure level for each of the human body parts and pressure inputted by the input selection unit (110) by a predetermined program and outputting a controlled signal; A compression pump unit 130 which receives the control signal output from the microprocessor 120 and compresses and pumps air for each body massage part; A solenoid part 140 for supplying air compressed by the compression pump part 130 by switching the air direction for each of the massage parts; A pressure sensor 150 for detecting a pressure of the compressed air supplied from the solenoid unit 140; A distribution unit (160) for distributing compressed air switched for each massage portion in the solenoid portion (140); An airtight pack part 170 for pressurizing the massage part with compressed air dispensed from the distribution part 160; An exhaust solenoid unit 180 for exhausting air pressurized by the airtight pack unit 170 as a control signal of the microprocessor 120; The display unit 190 to display the massage setting time and operation state output from the microprocessor 120 is configured.

The compression pump 130 is composed of first and second compression pumps (131, 132) for compressing and supplying air to the airtight pack unit (170) worn on the foot, calf, thigh area for each human body massage part. .

The solenoid part 140 is composed of three-way solenoids 141 and 142 which separately supply air compressed in the first and second compression pumps 131 and 132 in two directions.

The exhaust solenoid unit 180 is composed of exhaust solenoids 181-184 that selectively exhaust air of the airtight pack unit 170 by the microprocessor 120, respectively.

The present invention, which is configured as described above, as shown in Figure 2, first determine whether the use of the number of continuous use for the massager within the range (three consecutive times within 5 minutes after the end of the massager) (step 200), at this time limiting the number of continuous use If it is not in the range (3 consecutive times), that is, 4 or more times of continuous use, the microprocessor 120 controls the display unit 190 to flash the lamp while alarming an error in order to protect it from the abnormality of the compression pump 130. Then, (step 201), the power is released for a predetermined time, and then restarted (step 202).

However, if the number of continuous use is within the limit, the microprocessor 120 receives the airtight pack and massage pressure step of the human body massage area to be massaged from the input selection unit 110, the input selection unit 110 The airtight pack and massage pressure step of the massage portion to be selected from the) is selected sequentially or selectively for the sole, calf, thigh 1, thigh 2, as shown in Figure 3 (a), Pressure step is to select the desired strength, middle, weak according to the user, wherein the strength, middle, weak selection is set by the time to press the pressure (ie 60 seconds), medium (50 seconds), about (40 seconds) (Step 203).

When the massage portion and the pressure stage are selected from the input selection unit 110 as described above, the microprocessor 120 receives the first compression pump 131 of the compression pump unit 130 according to the selected massage portion and the pressure stage. In addition to compressing air as shown in FIG. 3, the microphone pro processor 120 controls the first solenoid 141 of the solenoid 140 to correspond to the compression direction (that is, the portion to be massaged). Direction) and compresses at the set pressure level, and the compressed air is supplied to the corresponding massage part of the hermetic pack part 170 through the distribution part 160 for a predetermined time t1 to be compressed ( Step 204).

Subsequently, when a predetermined time t1 has elapsed during the compression process by the set pressure step (any one of strong, medium, and weak), the microprocessor 120 continues to drive the compression pump unit 130 and the massage part is currently being compressed. That is, pressurization is maintained for a time t2 arbitrarily set in the airtight pack part 170 (step 205).

While maintaining the pressure as described above, the microprocessor 120 determines whether the pressure being pressurized is greater than or equal to the set pressure in the set pressure step through the pressure sensor 150 (step 206). As a result of the determination, if the detected pressure is greater than or equal to the set pressure, the microprocessor 120 detects that the pressure is greater than or equal to the alarm through the display unit 190 (step 201), and then releases the power for a randomly set time, and then restarts it. (Step 202).

However, if the detected pressure is not equal to or greater than the set pressure, the microprocessor 120 determines whether the preset pressurization time t2 is completed in the massage part (step 207), and at this time, the preset pressurization time t2 If this is not completed, the microprocessor 120 repeats the process until the preset pressing time t2 is completed.

On the other hand, when the preset pressurization time is completed, the microprocessor 120 controls the compression pump 130 and the exhaust solenoid unit 180 to arbitrarily set the exhaust solenoid unit 180 at an arbitrarily set time interval for a predetermined time t3. Exhaust the exhaust solenoid of 1) while turning on for 1 second, and by applying a vibration (rhythm) to the massage part in a repeated process of pressurizing while driving the compression pump of the compression pump 130 for 5 seconds to improve the massage effect ( Step 208).

When the predetermined time t3 is arbitrarily completed during the vibration (rhythm) to the massage area as described above, the microprocessor 120 maintains the pressurized state for the arbitrarily set time t4, and the next massage. In order to massage the part (calf), as shown in FIG. 3 (b), by controlling the first compression pump 131 of the compression pump 130 and the first solenoid 141 of the solenoid 140 The compression is started to the next massage part through the distribution unit 160 in the set pressure step (step 209).

Subsequently, when the pressure holding is completed for the predetermined time t4, the microprocessor 120 controls the exhaust solenoid unit 180 to perform the exhaust and the compression pump 130 to control the next massage part. In order to massage, compression is performed until the exhaust is completed (step 210).

In addition, the microprocessor 120 determines whether one press cycle (massage number) for each massage part is completed (step 211), and if the press cycle for each massage part is not completed, the microprocessor In step 120, the compressed air from step 205 is pressurized, rhythmized, and pressurized as shown in FIG. 3 (c) (d), ie, calf, thigh 1 and thigh 2. It is repeated until one press cycle for each massage part is completed.

However, when the number of pressing cycles (one time) for each massage part is completed, the microprocessor 120 stores the number of pressing periods (one time) and stops and pauses all operations for a predetermined time (step 213). ).

Subsequently, the microprocessor 120 determines whether the stored number of pressurization cycles (one is set to a predetermined number of pressurization cycles (7 times) arbitrarily set (step 214). If the number of pressurization cycles has not been reached (7 times), the process of compressing air, pressurizing, pressurizing, evacuating, and holding pressure to the airtight pack of the massage part from the step 204 is performed (7 times). It will repeat until it reaches.

On the other hand, if the stored pressurization period reaches a predetermined number of predetermined pressurization cycles (7 times), the microprocessor 120 all the time for a predetermined predetermined time (10 seconds) to protect the compression pump and other parts of the massager. The operation and the function are stopped (step 215), and then the process is repeatedly performed while determining the limit of the number of continuous use when the number of continuous use is added once from the user.

As described above, the present invention pressurizes air to the airtight pack partitioned according to the human body part and pushes the blood upwards to the human body part, and repeatedly exhausts and pressurizes it, and then presses the air to the next human body part. By pushing the blood back to the upper part to massage the human body part by a series of repetition of the exhaust and pressurization, smooth blood circulation is made to the human body parts to provide an effect that can maximize the massage effect Will be.
