ABSTRACT:
In a rocking chair device which assists sexual intercourse of old persons or handicapped persons to be made easy, especially wherein rapid rocking is secured in reasonable state and the safety is considered. The rocking chair device is provided with front and rear base plates which are made of a strong and non-flexible material such as band iron and are suspended and connected to a machine base frame and capable of being rocked in the front and rear direction, chairs which are arranged on the respective base plates through support columns and come close to each other, and a rocking device which rocks the chairs simultaneously in the direction of coming close to each other and getting away from each other. The rocking device supports a reversing shaft to the machine base frame at the intermediate position between both chairs in the orthogonal direction to the rocking direction of the chairs, and connects a rod moved linearly in the forward and rearward direction by rotation of a motor and the reversing shaft. Pressure detecting sensors are provided on the front surfaces of both chairs, and weight detecting sensors are assembled to both chairs.
Since the chairs are not laid directly on the ground but are installed on the suspended base plates thus in the aerial arrangement, the rocking in the front and rear direction can be performed smoothly and quietly and the rocking sound is little, and since the base plate is suspended by a strong and non-flexible member, the rapid rocking of the chair is possible. Also if legs are caught between both chairs, the rocking mechanism is stopped and the safety is maintained. Further since the rocking mechanism is not driven unless both persons sit on both chairs, the safety is maintained.
