Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Massagegerät mit einem Handgriff und einem daran befestigten, relativ zum Handgriff beweglichen Massagekopf, welcher zur Durchführung einer Rollmassage drehbar gelagerte Rollkörper aufweist.The invention relates to a massage device with a handle and a massage head attached to it and movable relative to the handle, which has rotatable roller bodies for carrying out a roller massage.

Ein Massagegerät der vorstehenden Art ist beispielsweise in dem DE-U-90 10 455.2 beschrieben. Bei ihm ist der Massagekopf mittels einer Achse pendelnd mit dem Handgriff verbunden. Dadurch kann er bei Benutzung durch eine Pendelbewegung um die den Massagekopf lagernde Achse der Körperkontur folgen, was zu einer gleichmäßigen Auflage aller Rollkörper führt.A massage device of the above type is described for example in DE-U-90 10 455.2. With him, the massage head is connected to the handle by means of an oscillating axis. As a result, when in use, it can follow the body contour by means of a pendulum movement about the axis supporting the massage head, which leads to a uniform support of all rolling elements.

Die FR-A-0 092 449 beschreibt auch schon ein Massagegerät, bei dem ein Massagekopf mit als Kugeln ausgebildeten Rollkörpern mittels eines Kugelgelenks mit seinem Handgriff verbunden ist. Das ermöglicht es dem Massagekopf um zwei Achsen zu pendeln, so daß er mit zwei Freiheitsgraden der jeweils zu behandelnden Körperkontur folgen kann. Das hierfür erforderliche Kugelgelenk bedingt jedoch einen relativ hohen konstruktiven Aufwand und erfordert relativ hohe Kräfte, um die gewünschte Pendelbewegung zuzulassen.FR-A-0 092 449 also already describes a massage device in which a massage head with rolling bodies designed as balls is connected to its handle by means of a ball joint. This enables the massage head to oscillate around two axes so that it can follow the body contour to be treated with two degrees of freedom. The ball joint required for this, however, requires a relatively high level of design effort and requires relatively high forces in order to permit the desired pendulum movement.

Der Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, ein Massagegerät der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß sein Massagekopf relativ zum Handgriff in einem möglichst hohen Maße beweglich ist, um sich beim Massieren der Körperkontur optimal anpassen zu können, ohne daß hierzu das Massagegerät kompliziert gestaltet sein muß.The invention is based on the problem of designing a massage device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that its massage head can be moved as much as possible relative to the handle in order to be able to adapt optimally when massaging the body contour without the massage device having to be complicated .

Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Massagekopf durch ein elastisch verformbares Verbindungsteil mit dem Handgriff verbunden ist.This problem is solved according to the invention in that the massage head is connected to the handle by an elastically deformable connecting part.

Durch ein solches elastisches Verbindungsteil kann der Massagekopf sich beim Massieren allseitig bewegen. Er kann sich nicht nur wie bei einem Kugelgelenk um zwei Koordinatenachsen verschwenken, sondern zugleich auch um eine in Längsrichtung des Handgriffes verlaufende Achse verdrehen. Diese drei Freiheitsgrade führen dazu, daß der Massagekopf beim Massieren optimal der Körperkontur folgen kann und beim Auftreffen auf eine plötzliche Konturänderung, beispielsweise bei der Gesichtsmassage beim Auftreffen gegen die Nase, weich abgebremst wird. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Gestaltung des Massagegerätes wird deshalb die Massage angenehmer und wirkungsvoller. Dennoch ist das Massagegerät sehr einfach aufgebaut und deshalb kostengünstig herzustellen.Such an elastic connecting part allows the massage head to move on all sides during the massage. Not only can it pivot about two coordinate axes as with a ball joint, but it can also rotate about an axis running in the longitudinal direction of the handle. These three degrees of freedom mean that the massage head can optimally follow the body contour when massaging and is gently braked when it encounters a sudden change in contour, for example in the face massage when it hits the nose. The design of the massage device according to the invention therefore makes the massage more pleasant and effective. Nevertheless, the massager is very simple and therefore inexpensive to manufacture.

Wichtig für die Erfindung ist, daß das Verbindungsteil eine gute Beweglichkeit des Massagekopfes zuläßt. Das kann auf verschiedene Weise erreicht werden, beispielsweise durch Gummikörper. Eine besonders einfache Ausführungsform besteht jedoch darin, daß das Verbindungsteil ein Federstab ist.It is important for the invention that the connecting part allows good mobility of the massage head. This can be achieved in various ways, for example with rubber bodies. A particularly simple embodiment, however, is that the connecting part is a spring bar.

Die zum Auslenken des Massagekopfes erforderliche Kraft kann auf einfache Weise verstellt werden, wenn das Verbindungsteil zum mehr oder weniger weitem Herausragen aus dem Handgriff in einer Aufnahme des Griffes axial verstellbar gehalten ist.The force required to deflect the massage head can be adjusted in a simple manner if the connecting part is held axially adjustable in a receptacle of the handle in order to protrude more or less from the handle.

Der Massagekopf befindet sich im nicht kraftbeaufschlagten Zustand stets in einer genau festgelegten Grundstellung relativ zum Handgriff, wenn gemäß einer anderen Weiterbildung der Erfindung das Verbindungsteil durch eine im unbelasteten Zustand auf Block liegende Zugfeder gebildet ist.The massage head is always in a non-pressurized state in a precisely defined basic position relative to the handle when, according to another development of the invention, the connecting part by a tension spring lying on block in the unloaded state is formed.

Die Verstellbarkeit des Federstabes kann auf sehr einfache Weise dadurch verwirklicht werden, daß das Verbindungsteil im Handgriff innerhalb eines in der Aufnahme verschieblich angeordneten Federtopfes gehalten ist, daß der Handgriff einen von seiner Außenseite bis in die Aufnahme führenden Schlitz hat und daß der Federtopf durch einen durch den Schlitz führenden Zapfen mit einem Stellknopf an der Außenseite des Handgriffes verbunden ist.The adjustability of the spring bar can be realized in a very simple manner in that the connecting part is held in the handle within a spring cup which is displaceably arranged in the receptacle, that the handle has a slot leading from the outside to the receptacle, and that the spring cup is through a through the slot leading pin is connected to an adjusting button on the outside of the handle.

Die Erfindung läßt zahlreiche Ausführungsformen zu. Zur weiteren Verdeutlichung ihres Grundprinzips ist eine davon in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird nachfolgend beschrieben. Diese zeigt in

Das erfindungsgemäße Massagegerät hat einen Handgriff 1, an welchem über ein elastisch verformbares Verbindungsteil 2 ein Massagekopf 3 befestigt ist. Dieser Massagekopf 3 haltert auf einer Achse 4 mehrere, frei drehbare Rollkörper 5, bei denen es sich um gezahnte Scheiben handeln kann. Die Achse 4 verläuft bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel parallel zum Handgriff 1. Sie kann jedoch auch anders ausgerichtet sein, insbesondere auch fluchtend zur Haupterstsreckungsachse des Handgriffes 1 verlaufen.The massage device according to the invention has a handle 1, to which a massage head 3 is attached via an elastically deformable connecting part 2. This massage head 3 holds on an axis 4 a plurality of freely rotatable rolling elements 5, which can be toothed disks. In this exemplary embodiment, the axis 4 runs parallel to the handle 1. However, it can also be oriented differently, in particular also in alignment with the main axis of extension of the handle 1.

Das Verbindungsteil 2 ist bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel als im unbelasteten Zustand auf Block liegende Zugfeder ausgebildet, die mit einem Ende fest mit dem Massagekopf 3 verbunden und mit ihrem anderen Ende in einem Federtopf 6 befestigt ist, welcher innerhalb einer Aufnahme 7 des Handgriffes 1 axial verstellt werden kann, so daß das Verbindungsteil 2 mehr oder weniger weit aus dem Handgriff 1 herauszuragen vermag. Zum Verschieben des Federtopfes 6 dient ein Stellknopf 8, der durch einen Zapfen 9 fest mit dem Federtopf 6 verbunden ist, wobei dieser Zapfen 9 innerhalb eines in die Aufnahme 7 führenden Schlitzes 10 verläuft.In this exemplary embodiment, the connecting part 2 is designed as a tension spring lying on the block in the unloaded state, which is firmly connected at one end to the massage head 3 and is fastened at its other end in a spring cup 6, which is axially adjusted within a receptacle 7 of the handle 1 can, so that the connecting part 2 can protrude more or less far from the handle 1. An adjusting knob 8 is used to move the spring cup 6, which is firmly connected to the spring cup 6 by a pin 9, this pin 9 running within a slot 10 leading into the receptacle 7.

Die Figuren 2 und 3 verdeutlichen, daß sich der Massagekopf 3 gegenüber dem Handgriff 1 unter Aufweitung des als Zugfeder ausgebildeten Verbindungsteils 2 bewegen kann, um sich der Kontur der massierten Körperpartie anzupassen.Figures 2 and 3 illustrate that the massage head 3 can move relative to the handle 1 while expanding the connecting part 2 designed as a tension spring in order to adapt to the contour of the massaged body part.

Die Figur 3 zeigt in der Draufsicht den Stellknopf 8 und den Schlitz 10 im Handgriff 1.FIG. 3 shows a top view of the adjusting knob 8 and the slot 10 in the handle 1.
