Abstract

623,897. Massage devices. FLUCK, F., and NIEDERMANN, J. May 23, 1947, No. 13885. Convention date, April 3. [Class 81 (ii)] A suction massage device comprises a plurality of suction cups mounted on a diaphragm closing a suction chamber which can be deformed to follow the shape of the body. In the embodiment described six suction cups 6, which may be of glass, are supported in a rubber diaphragm 3 fitted over the base of a pyramidal suction chamber 2 connected through a tube 1 with a suction pump. As the device is moved over the body the diaphragm is deformed accordingly and the suction is continuously applied to a number of points simultaneously. If fewer than the full number of cups is to be employed the appropriate holes in the diaphragm are plugged.
