MASSAGE APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240082103 titled 'MASSAGE APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a massage apparatus with a module drive motor, a motion shaft, a motion guider, a tilt drive motor, a tilt drive shaft, a rotation axis tilting member, and a roller bracket.

  • Module drive motor powers the motion shaft to rotate.
  • Motion guider moves in the extension direction of the motion shaft as it rotates.
  • Tilt drive motor rotates the tilt drive shaft.
  • Rotation axis tilting member, connected to the tilt drive shaft, includes a tilting portion with a tilted rotation axis.
  • Roller bracket supports a massage roller and is connected to the motion guider and rotation axis tilting member.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in massage chairs, massage beds, and other massage equipment for a more dynamic and customizable massage experience.

Problems Solved

This technology solves the problem of limited motion in traditional massage apparatus, allowing for a wider range of massage techniques and movements.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include a more effective and personalized massage experience, improved relaxation and muscle relief, and increased user comfort and satisfaction.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology can be commercialized in the wellness and healthcare industry for massage equipment manufacturers, spa and wellness centers, and individuals seeking advanced massage solutions.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be massage chairs with basic back and neck massage functions, lacking the dynamic and customizable features of the described apparatus.

Unanswered Questions

How does the rotation axis tilting member improve the massage experience?

The rotation axis tilting member allows for a more natural and ergonomic massage motion, adapting to the body's contours and providing targeted pressure points for enhanced muscle relief.

What materials are used in the construction of the massage apparatus?

The patent application does not specify the materials used in the construction of the massage apparatus. It would be beneficial to know the materials for durability, comfort, and maintenance considerations.


Original Abstract Submitted

provided is a massage apparatus including: a module drive motor; a module motion shaft provided to rotate by a driving force of the module drive motor; a motion guider provided to move in an extension direction of the module motion shaft as the module motion shaft rotates; a tilt drive motor; a tilt drive shaft arranged in parallel with the module motion shaft, and provided to rotate by a driving force of the tilt drive motor; a rotation axis tilting member coupled to the tilt drive shaft to rotate together with the tilt drive shaft, the rotation axis tilting member including a tilting portion having a rotation axis inclined with respect to the tilt drive shaft; and a roller bracket rotatably supporting a massage roller and connected to the motion guider and the rotation axis tilting member.
