Description
Neck Massager The present invention relates to a neck massager, and more particularly to a neck massager capable of gently relaxing the neck muscles of a lying user. Generally, most neck massagers utilize acupressure techniques that apply concentrated pressure to the back of the neck using methods such as rollers, vibrators, or air pressure pads. While these conventional neck massagers aim to provide temporary fatigue relief by applying pressure to specific points or transmitting vibrations, they have limitations in achieving balanced relaxation of the entire neck muscle group. Furthermore, acupressure-style neck massages can excessively increase tension in the neck muscles or concentrate pressure on a single area, potentially causing discomfort. In particular, the ability to naturally relax both the upper and lower muscles surrounding the cervical spine simultaneously is difficult to achieve with conventional neck massagers. Furthermore, conventional neck massagers are limited to applying inward pressure to the neck muscles or vibrating them, lacking active movements that allow the user to comfortably relax the entire neck while lying down. Consequently, there is a problem in that the massage effect is limited and it is difficult to evenly deliver stimulation to various layers of the neck muscles. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the neck massager of the present invention with an external case applied. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the neck massager of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a front view showing the neck massager of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a side view showing the neck massager of the present invention, FIG. 5 is a plan view showing the neck massager of the present invention, FIG. 6 is an exemplary diagram showing the process of operation of the neck massager of the present invention. FIG. 7 is an exemplary diagram showing, in a planar view, the state in which the user's neck is supported by the neck massager of the present invention. FIG. 8 is an exemplary diagram showing the process of a user's neck being massaged by the neck massager of the present invention. FIG. 9 is an exemplary planar view showing that the gap between the first neck support plate and the second neck support plate can be adjusted as another example of the neck massager of the present invention. The present invention proposes a neck massager comprising: a base plate horizontally positioned below the neck of a lying user to stably support the neck of the lying user and gently relax the neck muscles to obtain a balanced massage effect on the entire neck; a neck support plate erected on the base plate on which the neck rests; and a driving module that orbits the base plate in the forward, backward, up, and down directions. The scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below, and various modifications may be made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical essence of the present invention. Hereinafter, the neck massager of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached FIGS. 1 to 9. The neck massager of the present invention basically includes a base plate (100), a neck support plate (200), and a driving module (300), as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5. In describing the present invention, it is assumed that the user is lying flat on their back. For convenience of explanation, the user's head side is defined as the front, the user's foot side as the rear, the side the user is looking at as the upper side, and the ground side as the lower side. The base plate (100) is formed in the shape of a plate having a size such that the neck of a user lying flat can be positioned on the upper side, and can be positioned horizontally below the neck of the user lying flat. Since the user's head also moves during the process of massaging the user's neck, it is preferable that the base plate (100) be formed to have a size such that not only the neck of the user lying flat but also the head can be positioned on the upper side. The neck support plate (200) is configured to form a plate shape and be erected along the width direction of the base plate (100), so that the user's neck rests on the top. For example, the neck support plate (200) may be erected vertically and may be formed concavely so that the top can stably wrap around the user's neck. This neck support plate (200) may include a first neck support plate (210) and a second neck support plate (220) so as to support the user's neck area at least two points. The first neck support plate (210) supports the front end of the neck adjacent to the user's occipital region, and the second neck support plate (220) supports the rear end of the neck adjacent to the user's shoulder. At this time, considering that the front end of the neck is usually further from the ground than the rear end of the neck when the user lies down, it is preferable that the first neck support plate (210) be formed to have a
