1. A cushion apparatus for recovery from fatigue, comprising:

  • a controller for controlling the entire operation of the apparatus;

    an alarm unit for outputting an alarm through a speaker in response to a signal output from the microprocessor of the controller at a preset time, and counting the preset time and outputting a signal indicating the coming of the preset time to the microprocessor of the controller to output a vibration control signal to the vibration drive means of the controller and thus alarm a user;

    transmission units for transmitting a high frequency transmission signal through antennas when it is detected that a door is opened or an unfamiliar person trespasses;

    a reception unit for receiving the high frequency transmission signal from the transmission units and outputting the high frequency signal to the controller;

    input means for allowing a user command to be input to the controller;

    a plurality of vibration units arranged at regular intervals to apply vibration to a human body when the reception unit receives the high frequency transmission signal from the transmission units, the user command is input from the input means, and the time set by the alarm unit has elapsed;

    a cylindrical cushion body composed of semi-cylindrical upper and lower cushion bodies, the upper and lower cushion parts being each provided with a plurality of containing depressions arranged along the center line of the flat surface thereof at regular intervals to accommodating the vibration units, a plurality of cutouts arranged between the containing depressions at regular intervals to reduce the weight thereof, and an holding recess formed at one end thereof;

    an adaptor accommodated in the holding recess to receive Alternating Current (AC) power, convert the AC power into Direct Current (DC) power, and apply the DC power as operating power to the controller;

    a heat plate for receiving the DC power from the adaptor and applying heat to the human body under the control of the controller;

    display means for emitting light and indicating that the heating on/off switch and vibration on/off switch of the input means are turned on when the heating on/off switch and the vibration on/off switch are turned;

    an inner cover for covering the heating plate fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the cylindrical cushion body;

    an outer cover for covering the inner cover;

    an aromatic pouch detachably attached to one of two strings tying both openings of the outer cover;

    a plurality of casings for accommodating the vibration units not only to prevent the breakage and malfunction of the vibration units during operation and improve the durability of the vibrations units; and

    an anion emitting unit electrically connected to a jack provided in the input means to emit anions.
