  • Patent number: 6478755
    Abstract: A hand held massage unit used for therapeutic purposes such as to loosen and mobilize bronchial secretions in patients, to improve blood circulation, and to relax muscles. The massage unit includes a vibration-free motor unit having a rotating output shaft directly connected to a vibratory head assembly. The rotational motion of the output shaft is transformed into oscillating orbital motion about the shaft centerline in the adapter portion of the vibratory head assembly through an offset cam integrally formed as part of a counterbalanced eccentric. Counterweights within the eccentric reduce the vibrations transmitted to the user's hand and isolate the oscillating vibration of the vibratory head assembly. Undesired rotation of the vibratory head assembly is prevented by a mounting construction between the oscillating adapter components and a stationary portion of the vibratory head assembly secured to the motor unit.

  • Publication number: 20020058892
    Abstract: A massage apparatus which provides a unique combination of mechanical oscillation (vibration) and suction to help break up the fat clusters and stretch fiber tissue by combining massage and strong localized suction to raise the skin and bring encapsulated fluids to the surface. The massage apparatus is designed to combine localized suction to raise the skin and contain fluids of a body part while simultaneously generating a high frequency vibration to maximize fluid flow and elongation of skin fibrous tissue to increase the flexibility and elasticity of the skin.

  • Patent number: 4919117
    Abstract: A facial and body massage apparatus for skin cleansing and exfoliation is disclosed as having an applicator with a handle and a skin cleansing/exfoliation element for contacting the face or body of a user. The skin cleansing/exfoliation element is constructed to rotate about an axis aligned with the handle while also orbiting in a path about the aforementioned rotational axis to re-position the skin cleansing/exfoliation element continuously about the rotational axis during rotation thereof. The method of the present invention includes applying a continuously-rotating skin cleansing/exfoliation element to the facial or body skin of a user, and simultaneously continuously-orbiting same in an orbiting path about the axis of rotation of the skin cleansing/exfoliation element, to provide maximum surface area contact while reducing heat and skin irritation as well as uneven wear of the skin cleansing/exfoliation element.

  • Patent number: 4757806
    Abstract: The unit has a power source with a shaft connected to a cable extending to a massage applicator to rotate an eccentric therein, the cable having at both ends drive keys in sliding engagement with the motor and applicator shafts which shafts have accommodating bores to slidingly receive the cable drive keys to thus accommodate tension and compression exerted upon the cable during driving engagement, with a sheath surrounding the cable and having swivel couplings at the sheath ends, the sheath having at each end ferrules connected to the power unit and the applicator by nuts, and having a high strength bearing of stronger material than the applicator near the eccentric, with the applicator having watertight seals, and the applicator structure providing a passageway for the eccentric drive shaft and a ferrule therein, the power unit having a carrying handle receiving and releasably locking the applicator allowing a hand to grasp and carry both the power unit handle and the applicator, with the applicator rear ha

  • Patent number: 4595196
    Abstract: A deep breathing exercise device includes a belt member to be positioned around the lower chest wall, with the belt ends joined by a plastic case, one end of the belt being mounted to the case by a negatively-variable-resistance leaf spring permitting limited withdrawal of the belt end from within the case, the case having a plurality of LEDs and a chime to indicate movement of the belt from within the case as the circumferential length of the belt system increases in response to an inhaling motion of the wearer.
