A MOBILE AUTOMATIC MASSAGE APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A mobile automatic massage apparatus for improving peripheral vascular blood circulation and reducing soreness or pain of a human body, the apparatus comprising:
- an automatic guided vehicle as a mobile base;
a 3D scanner which obtains 3D data of the human body and surrounding objects, guides the massage apparatus and monitors treatment;
a touch screen monitor which provides an Input and Output interface;
a remote central computer which operates massage programs and send instructions to the massage apparatus through a wireless connection;
one or more robotic arms which can move freely in any direction to conduct a massage at targeted positions;
soft pads with three layer structure including a soft material layer, a pressure sensor layer and a thermal heater layer;
artificial hands covered by the soft pads which can perform different techniques of massage;
a Wi-Fi communication unit which transfers the 3D data between the massage apparatus and the remote central computer;
a remote control for a patient to perform simple adjustments including stopping the massage or reducing a strength of massage for safety purposes;
a safety unit which stops a supply of power immediately when force exerted on the human body exceeds a safety level;

Abstract
A mobile automatic massage apparatus which includes a base of an automatic guided vehicle and a few robotic arms attached above it. A 3D scanner on the pole behind the touch screen monitor takes images of the surrounding environment and guides the movement of the vehicle and positioning of the arms. The hands attached to the robotic arms perform the massage according to the programs of a central computer. This massage apparatus can perform similar professional massage provided by the physicians or therapists to improve the blood circulation of the patients and reduce the pain.
