  • Publication number: 20130283948
    Abstract: A massage apparatus having a power source that can be a motor producing forward and reverse movement, and an active gear attached to a protruding axis from the power source. The active gear engages with a passive gear on a horizontal transmission stick to transmit the power, and the power source can drive a vertical transmission stick through a steering gear group, so that the horizontal transmission stick and vertical transmission stick can generate simultaneous forward and reverse movement. Also, a transmission gear is disposed on the horizontal transmission stick, and a conjugated gear is disposed on a one-way bearing of a horizontal threaded rod that is parallel to the horizontal transmission stick. Furthermore, a massaging unit is conjugated with pairs of horizontal transmission sticks, horizontal threaded rods, vertical transmission sticks and vertical threaded rods through a sliding cover.

  • Patent number: 7784372
    Abstract: A driving mechanism for a massaging device includes a housing, a driven gear rotatably mounted in the housing, a driven shaft secured to a first side of the driven gear, and an adjusting shaft mounted on a second side of the driven gear. Thus, when the driven gear is rotatable in a first direction, the adjusting shaft and the driven shaft are rotated with the driven gear simultaneously, so that the two swinging members are moved in the same direction, and when the driven gear is rotatable in a second direction, the adjusting shaft and the driven shaft are rotated with the driven gear with a time lag, so that the two swinging members are moved in the opposite direction.

  • Patent number: 7744548
    Abstract: A massaging device includes a propeller shaft, at least one first swinging member mounted on the propeller shaft, and at least one second swinging member mounted on the propeller shaft by a male deflection block, a female deflection block and an adjusting rod. Thus, when the rotation direction of the propeller shaft is changed, the push block of the adjusting rod is slidable in the adjusting groove of the male deflection block to produce a time lag of the swinging actions between the second swinging member and the first swinging member, so that the second swinging member and the first swinging member are operated in the same swinging direction or in two different swinging directions so as to produce different swinging actions, thereby providing different massaging effects to the user.
