Definitions

  • the vibration filter comprises a suspension coupled between the massage housing and the vibration generating source.
  • said suspension has a resonance frequency that is between 1.1 and 1.7 times the fundamental vibration frequency of the vibrations provided by the vibrating generating source.
  • the vibration filter is coupled between the massage housing and the outside air.
  • the vibration filter comprises a flexible skin covering the massage housing. The flexibility of the skin is chosen in relation to the further vibration frequencies.
  • Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a handheld massage device 10 comprising a massage housing 100 and a vibration generating source 160.
  • the vibrations provided by the vibration generating source 160 cause the massage housing to vibrate with an amplitude of for example 0.15mm and a fundamental frequency of for example 60Hz.
  • the vibration generating source produces also vibrations with other frequencies than said fundamental frequency.
  • the massage device is brought in contact with the body so that the vibrations of the massage housing are transferred to body.
  • the fundamental frequency is chosen to provide a pleasant massage sensation.
  • the massage device further comprises a vibration filter 140, 150, 770 to attenuate the transfer of the vibrations at the other vibration frequencies from the vibration generating source 160 to the outside air.
  • the massage device included in the massage system may further comprise a rechargeable battery 760 to provide electrical energy to the vibration generating source 160.
  • the massage device further comprises a first electrical coupling means 750 that is arranged to be coupled with a second electrical coupling means 740 which is included in the base device.
  • the coupling of the second coupling means to the power connector may be controlled by the control system 720, e.g. said coupling may be dependent on the detected presence of the massage device.
  • An example of a first and second coupling means is a plug and a socket.
  • the first and second coupling means comprise a coil arranged for inductive coupling when the massage device is placed on or near the base device.
  • the massage device may further comprise a further control system 775 that is arranged for controlling the charging process of the rechargeable battery.
  • the further control system may further control the vibration generation source 160, e.g. the frequency and/or amplitude of the produced vibrations.
  • the massage device may further comprise temperature indication means arranged to indicate a temperature of the massage housing 100 and/or the skin 770 covering said massage housing.
  • the temperature indication means for example comprises a temperature sensor and a LED to indicate when the temperature of the massage housing and/or the skin is within a predetermined temperature range to indicate that the massage device is ready for use.
  • the temperature indication means comprises a sound reproducing device, such as for an MP3 player having memory comprising music. When the temperature of the housing and/or the skin is within a predetermined range the MP3 player comprised in the massage device will provide a sound, such as a relaxing sound or melody, to indicate that the massage device is ready for use.
