  • Publication number: 20080154161
    Abstract: There is provided a handheld device (11) that includes a rolling ball (14) attached to a handle. One or more buttons (16) can be used to control the vibration of the handle (12) and/or rolling ball (14) through the use of motors (22, 24) with eccentric weights (26, 28). In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, a lubricating liquid (42a) can be massaged onto a user's body by the rolling ball (14). Within the handle (12) is an oil container (42) to hold the oil or lubricating liquid (42a). The oil (42a) is transferred from the oil container (42) to a wicking element (44). As the rolling ball (44) is moved across a user's skin, the rotation of the rolling ball (44) causes the oil (42a) to transfer from the wicking element (44) onto the rolling ball (14). This oil (42a) is then transferred to the user's skin.
