Body massage device

Abstract

Body massage device (1) that moves back and forth along a track (10) placed around the body. Figure for abbreviation: [Fig.1]

Description

[0042] [Fig. 3] shows a body massage device 1 movable along a ribbon 30, consisting of a longitudinal central part 3 provided with a cover 31 configured to create a channel for the passage of the ribbon, two belts 33 parallel to each other and contiguous on either side of the central part. Each of said belts rotates around two wheels 34. A cover 35 covers a battery supplying power to the device.

[0043] In this embodiment, the ribbon 30 represents the track 10 along which the device moves.

[0044] The device can move under the tape.

[0045] The battery 35 may be a 3.7 volt lithium polymer battery of a reduced size and weight required for the type of device described herein. The battery may be 37 millimeters in length, 19.5 millimeters in width, and 8 millimeters in depth. It may have a capacity of 380 milliampere hours and have a battery life of 14 minutes.

[0046] The belts are provided with teeth 32.

[0047] Thus, the toothed belts create a massage effect on the skin.

[0048] [Fig.4] shows an internal view of the various components of the second mode of embodiment of a body massage device of [Fig.3] according to the invention.

[0049] The shafts of the motor 24 placed in the central part of the device are connected to two wheels 34, each wheel belonging to a belt on either side of the central part.

[0050] The motion supply motor 24 may be a dual shaft 6 volt mini DC geared motor.

[0051] A socket 11 makes it possible to re-power a battery 21 supplying power to the device. Alternatively, a removable and therefore replaceable battery 21 makes it possible to power the device without using the socket 11.

[0052] A printed circuit board 38 houses an on / off switch 37 of the device as well as a reed switch 36.

[0053] The reed switch is magnetically actuated. A magnet placed at a starting point and an ending point of the device allows the device to be moved between these two points. When the device approaches either magnet, the switch closes, electronically signaling the device to reverse and move in the opposite direction.

[0054] The advantage of the invention is to provide a body massage device movable between various locations of the body desired by the user.
