W. P. MERRILL MASSAGE-R AND SCALP CONDITIONER Filed July 5, 1935 Sept.
Invenfar Wi 76 772 ZZ,
Patented Sept. 18, 1934 PATENT OFFICE UNITED STATES 1 Claim.
This invention appertains to new and useful improvements for treating scalps, the principal object being to provide a combination massager and oil applicator.
Another important object of the present invent'on is to provide a combination device of the character stated wherein the vibration of the massager can be regulated and wherein the discharge of oil can be properly regulated.
Other important objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following specification.
In the drawng:
Figure 1 represents a longitudinal sectional view through the novel device.
Figure 2 represents a bottom plan view of the device, with the massaging element removed.
Figure 3 represents a sect'onal view taken substantially on line 33 of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawing wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen that the novel device consists of the dome 5 having a cyl ndrical wall extension 6 within which is located the horizontally disposed partition '7 of some suitable di-electr c material from which depends the tube 8 having a reduced extension 9 at its lower end on which the cylindrical shell 10 is rotatably mounted and prevented from displacement by the screw 11. The shell 10 has a pocket therein and ducts 12 are provided in the bottom of this shell to register wth the ducts 13 in the teats 14 of the massaging rubber 15 which is attached to the bottom of the shell 10 and provided with a centrally located opening exposing the screw 11 so 35 that access can be had to the screw to permit removal of the shell 10 and massaging rubber from the balance of the instrument.
The interior of the dome 5 forms an oil chamber 16 and by removing the plug 17 in the dome, the supply of oil therein can be replenished, as desired.
A needle valve 18 is feedable through the upper portion of the dome and is controlled by the handle 19 at its upper exterior end. The lower end of the needle is feedable in the upper end of the tube 8 to regulate the oil discharge fromthe chamber 16 through the tube and by way of the openings 20 to the shell 10. To the under side of the partition 7, which is of di-electric material is attached a heating coil 21, one end of which is connected to the rheostat contactor 22, while its opposite end is attached to the rheostat coil 23, thus afi'ording means whereby the heating element can be controlled, the supply of current not being shown in the drawing.
The wall 6 is provided with a threaded hollow protuberance which is received by the internally threaded neck 24 of the hollow handle 25 within which is located the electro-magnetic coil 26. Numeral 27 represents a vibratory armature within the magnetic field of the electro-magnet 26 and from this extends the rod 28. This rod is sufficiently flexible and extends through the neck 24 of the handle 25 and into the space within the wall 6 where it is ofiset, as at 29, and connected 5 to the stud 30 eccentrically located on the top of the shell 10.
Thus it can be seen that when the electro-magnet 26 is energized by an alternating or pulsating current, the rod 28 will be reciprocated, to the end that the shell 10 will be oscillated and ailord a rubbing and massaging action when the rubber 15 is applied with its teats 14 against the scalp and during this massaging operation, the needle valve 18 can be regulated to aiford a flow of oil through the teats 14 to the scalp and obviously, the ofl can be heated by the coil 21 so that it will have the necessary penetrating effect.
' While the foregoing specification sets forth the invention in'speciflc terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
Having described the invention, what is claimed as new is A massaging device comprising a shell, a hollow handle extending from the shell, a partition in the shell, a massaging unit having projections thereon, said unit having a portion thereof disposed into the shell and snugly fitting therein, a member depending from the partition and to which the massaging unit is rotatably connected,
a vibrating unit in the handle, and a rod extending from the vibrating unit and connecting eccentrically to the inner side of the massaging unit.
