Description

Field of technology

The invention relates to the fields of medicine and the satisfaction of human vital needs, namely to auxiliary accessories for massage, automation of massage and therapeutic procedures in a steam room, bathhouse, sauna, using bath brooms.

State of the art

Since ancient times, the medicinal properties of quilting with bath brooms from various types of wood, bushes, herbs in the steam room of a bath have been known, and the healing effect has been proven by modern scientific works (I.P. Neumyvakin “Bathhouse. Therapeutic effect. Myths and reality”). The main processes of massage and therapeutic procedures in the steam room of the bath include: quilting with bath brooms (large, vertical, reciprocating movements); patting (small, vertical, back-and-forth movements); stroking (lightly touching with brooms and stretching them horizontally along the body of the steamer); injection of hot air (rotational movements with brooms, without contact with the body of the steamer). Alternation and joint movements of two brooms are also used. As a rule, a person (the steamer) performs the work with brooms either independently or with the involvement of another person (the steamer). The usual structure of a steam room involves an enclosed room with a steam generator (heater) and a lounger, mainly located against the wall.

The solutions of D.P. Stepanov are known. protected by RF patents No. 2643578 and 2678301

The closest analogue to the claimed invention is the “Automatic steamer” RF patent for invention No. 2678301 containing a source of steam generation, a device for placing a person, and a device for steaming, made in the form of a horizontal guide with a carriage. The disadvantage of this invention is the perpendicular arrangement of bath brooms relative to the horizontal guide. This arrangement of bath brooms requires a fairly wide shelf on which the steamer is located, and the movement of two brooms along the same line does not allow steaming the entire area of the steamer’s body. The absence of a vertical guide does not allow you to lie down comfortably before starting soaring and get up after completing the procedure.

Disclosure of the Invention

The technical problem to be solved by the proposed technical solution is the possibility of steaming both the entire body and individual areas.

The technical result of the invention lies in the possibility of carrying out alternate, vertical, reciprocating movement of brooms and simultaneous movement of them along the axis of the steaming body, which makes it possible to steam both the entire body and its individual sections.

The technical result of the invention is achieved by the fact that a device is proposed that contains a horizontal guide configured to be attached to a wall, inside which a gear rack and an electric motor are installed, on the output shaft of which a gear is installed with the possibility of its movement along the gear rack when the output shaft of the electric motor rotates, a vertical guide with a gear rack and an electric motor installed inside it, located on a horizontal guide and configured to move along it when the gear moves along the gear rack of the horizontal guide on the output shaft of the electric motor; a carriage with an electric motor installed inside it is attached to the vertical guide and with the possibility of its movement along the vertical guide when the gear moves along the rack of the vertical guide, the drive of the electric motor installed in the carriage is connected in series with the driving rod, driven rod and rocker arms, each of which has a fastening device for installing bath brooms, with the driven rod at both ends and the rocker arms on the side the attachments to the rod have hinged connections; a shaft passes through the rocker arms, made and installed in the carriage with the ability to convert the torque movement of the electric motor into reciprocating movements of the rocker arms.

The combination of the above essential features leads to the fact that:

a large shelf width is not required for use;

allows for convenient placement of the person steaming before the start of steaming and convenient exit after the end of the steaming procedure;

The process is completely automated, resulting in no longer requiring assistants.

Implementation and implementation examples

Below is an example of a specific design of the device, which does not limit its design options.

To solve the technical problem, the process of alternating, vertical, reciprocating movements of two bath brooms and their horizontal movement along the axis of the steamer was taken as a basis.

The automatic steamer is shown schematically in Fig. 1-5 and consists of a horizontal guide structure 3, along which a vertical guide structure 4 moves, along which a carriage 5 moves with two bath brooms 2 fixed in fastening devices 7. The carriage 5 contains devices 12 for vertical, reciprocating movements of two bath brooms 2 alternately.

The inventive device for automatically carrying out massage and therapeutic procedures using bath brooms according to figure 1 contains horizontal and vertical guide structures 3 and 4, respectively, made with the ability to move the carriage 5 in vertical and horizontal directions, an electric motor 9 rigidly installed inside the carriage with a drive rod 10 in series connected to the driven rod 11, the rocker arm 12 on which the mounting device 7 for bath brooms 2 is installed. The electric motor 9 of the device is connected to the control panel 6 via remote or wired communication. The control panel 6 can be replaced by a control unit or be interconnected with it. Remote control 6 is used to turn the device on and off, change and regulate operating modes, namely: the speed of movement of the carriage and its stopping in the right place; frequency and change of modes of alternating, vertical, reciprocating movements of brooms and their stop.

The horizontal guide of the device 3 is a metal frame, designed to be attached to the wall of a steam room (steam room) with self-tapping screws or self-tapping screws with dowels. An electric motor (not shown in the figures) is installed inside the guide, with a gear mounted on the output shaft. When the engine rotates, the gear moves along a rack also installed inside the guide. Due to this, the vertical guide moves together with the carriage to the right or left.

Vertical guide 4 is a metal frame designed to be attached to a horizontal guide. An electric motor (not shown in the figures) is installed inside the guide, with a gear mounted on the output shaft. When the engine rotates, the gear moves along a rack also installed inside the guide. Due to this, the carriage moves up and down.

The carriage 5 is a housing with the ability to be attached to a vertical guide 4 so that the carriage 5 can move along it. Inside the carriage 5 there is an electric motor 9 to the drive of which a driving rod 10 is attached, to which, in turn, driven rods 11 are attached by means of a hinge connection, which in turn are connected through articulated joints to rocker arms 12 with brooms 2.

The rocker shaft 13 fig. passes through the rocker arms. 3 and 4 on which the rocker arms perform reciprocating movements. Due to the rocker shaft 13, the rotational movement of the electric motor 9, in the carriage 5, is converted into reciprocating movements of the rocker arms, with bath brooms 2 fixed in them, through fastening devices 7.

The device requires three electric motors to operate. All three electric motors can be the same and can be represented by a standard engine, for example, a windshield wiper motor from a Gazelle car.

The driving rod 10 is a metal rod, similar to the crankshaft of an internal combustion engine, connected to the electric motor of the carriage 5.

The driven rod 11 is made of metal with articulated joints at both ends. One end of the rod is attached to the drive rod; the other end of the rod is attached to the rocker arm 12.

The rocker arms 12 are made of metal; on one side there are hinged joints; on the other side, a fastening device for a broom is rigidly installed; in the center of the rocker arm there is a hole through which the axis of the rocker arms 13 passes.

The rocker shaft 13 is made of metal. It is a steel, flat rod fixed inside the carriage 5 and passing through the rocker arms.

The device is mounted on the wall parallel to the lounger and is adjustable in height relative to the individual body structure of the person soaring. The carriage is driven by an electric motor (an electric motor is installed on a vertical guide for moving up and down. Another electric motor is installed on a horizontal guide for moving to the right and left) with the ability to regulate speed.

The dimensions of the inventive device can be determined by the length of the human body for the length of the horizontal guide and the height of the room for the length of the vertical guide.

Implementation example

The device works as follows:

Stage 1. Preparation. Before the start of hovering, the height for a particular soarer is selected, at which the carriage 5 will be located during hovering at the lowest point. After this, the carriage, using the remote control 6, rises to the highest point in height and to the middle position horizontally (on the horizontal guide 3).

Stage 2. Soaring. The steamer takes out previously prepared (soaked) brooms 2 (presumably from the basin) and inserts them into fastening devices 7 for brooms. Then it goes on the shelves. Using the remote control 6, the electric motor located in the vertical guide is activated. The carriage 5 with the brooms 2 fixed in it is lowered to the hovering level, after which, using the remote control 6, the electric motor 9 in the carriage 5 is turned on. The brooms 2 begin reciprocating movements and carry out the hovering process itself. Using the remote control 6, the electric motor located in the horizontal guide is activated. Carriage 5 moves to the right or left along the body of the soaring person. At the request of the soaring carriage 5 can stop at any place or move along the body along the entire length of the horizontal guide 3.

Stage 3. End of soaring. When the person soaring decided to stop soaring, he, using the remote control 6, raises the carriage 5 with brooms 2 to the upper position so that the carriage 5 and brooms do not interfere with the person soaring from getting up from the shelf, after which he stands up without obstacles, removes the brooms 2 from the fastening devices 7, and removes 2 brooms (presumably in a basin so as not to dry out) and leaves the steam room.
