Abstract
An abdominal massaging device includes a support and a first plate rotatably mounted on the support. At least one projection extends from and is rotatably mounted upon the first plate. In this way, the projection is effective to rotate with respect to the surface of the plate. In an alternative embodiment a plurality of second plates are disposed on the first plate and projections are disposed on the second plates. The supports for the device further include concave portions for receiving a user's pelvis and rib cage.
Claims11
A massager for massaging a body part of a user, said massager comprising:
- a first plate tilted obliquely with respect to and rotatable about a first axis;
- a second plate overlying said first plate and rotatable about a second axis passing through said first and second plates, said second plate including at least one massaging element thereon;
- said first axis and said second axis are oblique to one another so that when one of said first and second plates rotates with respect to the other, said second plate undergoes a rocking motion about said first axis.
A massager for massaging a body part of a user, the massager comprising:
- a support, a first axis on the support,
- a first plate tilted obliquely with respect to and rotatable about the first axis;
- and a motor for driving the first plate to rotate about the first axis,
- a second plate overlying the first plate, the second plate being rotatable about a second axis passing through the first and second plates;
- the second plate including at least one massaging element thereon;
- the first axis and the second axis are oblique to one another, such that rotation of the first plate by the motor causes the second plate to have a rocking motion with respect to the support and that rocking motion is converted to translatory movement of the at least one massaging element on the second plate.
