Abstract

A massaging device which is designed to be applied to the skin of a person, and comprises an outer hollow case (1) which delimits a main suction chamber, the lower edge of which delimits an open surface for application on the skin, and elements for connecting the outer case (1) to a suction source. According to the invention, this massaging device comprises at least one inner case (20), which is disposed in the main suction chamber, which delimits a secondary suction chamber, and has a lower edge which delimits an open surface for application on the skin, elements (4,5,6) for displacement of the inner case (20) relative to the outer case (1), according to motion which is substantially parallel to the plane of the open surface for application of the outer case to the skin, and elements (23) for connection of the inner case (20) to a suction source.

Dependent claims

A massaging device which is designed to be applied to the skin of a person, comprising:

a hollow outer case having a peripheral wall which delimits a main suction chamber, and has a lower edge which delimits an open surface for application on the skin;
connection means for connecting the outer case to a suction source which can generate reduced pressure in the main suction chamber;
at least one second hollow inner case having dimensions which are smaller than the dimensions of the outer case;
said inner case being disposed in the main suction chamber and having a peripheral wall which delimits a secondary suction chamber, and a lower edge which delimits an open surface for application on the skin;
displacement means for displacing each inner case relative to the outer case in a direction which is substantially parallel to a plane of the open surface;
communication means for making each inner case communicate with a suction source which can generate reduced pressure in the secondary suction chamber.
