Abstract

498,228. Massage apparatus. PETERS, F., and KUHLISCH, R. June 26, 1937, No. 17854. [Class 81 (ii)] A massage apparatus comprises a hollow cylinder 8 pivotally mounted on a pin 6 in an outer casing 1 and oscillated by an eccentric pin 13, on a shaft 14, passing through a slot 19 in the cylinder and through a piston 12 therein. A steel spring blade 9, centrally secured by a nut on a hollow boss on cylinder 8, has a massage element, such as 11, secured in a slot in each of its ends. The casing 1 has a laterally-extending foot-piece 20 enclosing the massage elements and encloses in its upper portion sponge rubber rings 21 serving to deaden the noise of the moving parts. The pin 6 is stepped and is screwed into casing 1 on one side and supported in a screwed-in bush 7 on the other. A third massage element, mounted on a spring blade attached to a rod, may be secured to the apparatus to reciprocate longitudinally, the rod being passed upwards through the cylinder 8 and screwed into the head of the piston 12, the pin 6, previously removed, being then passed through an elongated eye in the rod. The shaft 14 passes through a handle 29 and is connected to a flexible shaft driven by an electric motor, the motor being carried on a stand provided with a clip to support the apparatus when out of use. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 19032/10, [Class 81 (ii)].
