Abstract

733,407. Massage appliances. MACK, L.LA F. Nov. 9, 1953, No. 31017/53. Class 81 (2). A massage table comprises an oscillatable massage element mounted on an intermediate cradle carried on a main frame. The main frame 22, Fig. 3, carries a driving motor 110 and supports the cradle on four pivoted links 31, while a main patient support, comprising padded members 42, 41 and a central pad 50, are adjustably attached to it. Four massage elements 53, 54, two at each side, are carried on levers 77 pivoted to the cradle at 71 and may be oscillated through linkage from a crank 90 driven by the motor. By displacing the pivotal point of a triangular member 82, forming part of the linkage, the amplitude and phase relationship of the members 53, 54, relative to the crank 90, may be varied between zero and a maximum, the setting being determined by a lever 95 associated with each particular massage member 53. A locking device is also provided, see Fig. 14 (not shown), by means of which the patient support and cradle are locked to the crank 90, so that the support oscillates as a whole. In a modified form, see Fig. 18 (not shown), one electric motor oscillates the. cradle as a whole and one of two separate motors oscillate each transverse pair of massage elements, these being so arranged as to move with similar or opposite motions.
