Gegenstand der Erfindung ist eine Ma-. schine für Massagezwecke, die entweder von Hand oder durch einen geeigneten Motor betrieben wird. Der Zweck der Maschine besteht darin, mittels eines auswechselbar angebrachten und in äußerst schnelle hin- und hergehende Bewegung versetzten Schlagwerkzeugs je nach Bedürfnis mehr oder weniger heftig hämmernd auf die der Massage zu unterwerfenden Körperstellen einzuwirken. Die hämmernde Bewegung des Schlagwerkzeugs wird durch eine mit diesem durch ein biegsames Rohr verbundene Luftpumpe hervorgebracht, zu deren Betrieb ein Zahnräderlg^swerk von hoher Übersetzung" vorgesehen ist. Hinsichtlich der Einrichtung und Form kann das Schlagwerkzeug verschieden sein. Zum /Zwecke der Änderung oder Abschwächung ■' der Schlagwirkung können an der Luftpumpe oder an der Zuleitung des Werkzeugs Ventile oder Hähne angeordnet werden.The invention is a Ma-. machine for massage purposes, either from Operated by hand or by a suitable motor. The purpose of the machine is to use an interchangeable attached and the striking tool set in extremely rapid to and fro movement more or less depending on the needs to act vigorously hammering on the body parts to be subjected to the massage. the hammering movement of the percussion tool is by a flexible with this one Pipe connected air pump produced, for their operation a gear mechanism of high gear ratio "is provided the striking tool may be different. For the purpose of changing or weakening the impact ■ 'you can use the air pump or valves or taps can be arranged on the feed line of the tool.

Auf beiliegender Zeichnung ist die Maschine dargestellt.The machine is shown in the accompanying drawing.

Fig. ι zeigt die Maschine im Aufriß bei einem senkrechten Schnitt durch das Gehäuse und durch das Werkzeug.Fig. Ι shows the machine in elevation a vertical section through the housing and through the tool.

Fig. 2 bis 6 zeigen Schnitte verschiedener Ausführungsformen des Werkzeugs.FIGS. 2 to 6 show sections of different embodiments of the tool.

Fig. 7 bis 10 zeigen verschiedene bei dem Werkzeug nach Fig. 6 zur Anwendung kommende Hämmer.FIGS. 7 to 10 show different ones for use in the tool according to FIG. 6 coming hammers.

Fig. 11 zeigt die durch einen Elektromotor angetriebene Maschine mit zwei Schlagwerkzeugen versehen.Fig. 11 shows that by an electric motor the driven machine is provided with two striking tools.

In Fig. ι 'bezeichnet α ein mit einem Fuße b versehenes Metallgehäuse. Im oberen Teil desselben sitzt auf einer mit Kurbel d versehenen Welle ein großes Zahnrad c, welches mit einem kleinen Zahnrad e in Eingriff steht, auf dessen Welle ein mit einem Kurbelzapfen versehenes Schwungrad f sitzt. An den Kurbelzapfen ist die starre Kolbenstange i einer um den Bolzen h schwingenden Luftpumpe g angelenkt. Ein mit der Luftpumpe verbundenes biegsames Rohr j ist durch eine nahe über dem Fuße b im Gehäuse α vorgesehene Öffnung nach außen geführt und hier an das Schlagwerkzeug k angeschlossen.In Fig. Ι ' α denotes a metal housing provided with a foot b. In the upper part of the same sits on a shaft provided with a crank d , a large gear c, which is in engagement with a small gear e , on whose shaft a flywheel f provided with a crank pin sits. The rigid piston rod i of an air pump g swinging around the bolt h is articulated to the crank pin. A flexible tube j connected to the air pump is led to the outside through an opening provided close to the foot b in the housing α and is connected here to the striking tool k .

Das in Fig. 1 dargestellte Schlagwerkzeug k besteht aus einem Zylinder mit einem darin frei hin- und herschiebbaren Kolben /, auf dessen Kolbenstange 0 der in Kugelform ausgebildete Hammer η geschraubt ist. Der Hub des Kolbens / und Hammers η wird durch eine zwischen beiden im Zylinder festsitzende Scheibe k¹ begrenzt. Dicht vor dieser Scheibe sind im Zylindermantel mehrere Luftlöcher m vorgesehen, durch welche je nach der Hubrichtung des Kolbens der Luftpumpe g entweder Außenluft eingesaugt oder die zwischen dem Kolben / und der Scheibe k^l befindliche Luft herausgedrückt wird: Mit j? ist ein kleiner Hahn bezeichnet, bei dessen Öffnung ein Teil der auf den Kolben / treibend wirkenden Luft nach außen entweichen kann, so daß die Schlagwirkung des Hammers je nach dem Grade der Öff- The percussion tool k shown in FIG. 1 consists of a cylinder with a piston / piston which can be moved freely back and forth therein and on the piston rod 0 of which the spherical hammer η is screwed. The stroke of the piston and hammer η is limited by a disk k ¹ that is fixed between the two in the cylinder. Directly in front of this disk several air holes m are provided in the cylinder jacket, through which, depending on the stroke direction of the piston of the air pump g, either outside air is sucked in or the air located between the piston / and the disk k ^l is pushed out: With j? denotes a small cock, when opening part of the air acting on the piston / driving air can escape to the outside, so that the impact of the hammer depending on the degree of opening

tion of the cock more or less weakened as a result of the reduced air pressure will.

In the tool k shown in Fig. 2, the cylinder is closed by a screw cap k ^b , between whose conically tapered edge a ball s made of flexible material, suitably rubber, is clamped as a hammer. The piston r

ίο moves freely back and forth in the cylinder and causes the ball s to ^{vibrate through its impact against the cap / f 5.} Air holes m are also provided in the cylinder here.

The tool k according to FIG. 3 is bell-shaped and, instead of the piston, has a membrane 11, in the center of which a hemispherical body t is firmly seated as a hammer. When the air pump is in operation, the membrane starts to vibrate and thus causes hammer blows on the affected part of the body.

In the tool according to FIG. 4, the cylinder is closed by a screw plug k '² ; Against this, the impacts of Kolbetis r , which can freely move back and forth in the cylinder, are directed.

In the tool shown in FIG. 5, three screw caps k ' ² , k ^:} and k' ¹ of different strengths are envisaged for closing the cylinder k. The piston r is provided with a push pin r ¹ , which pushes with its rounded head against the center of the screw cap.

The tool according to FIG. 6 is set up similarly to that in FIG. 1. The neck of the cylinder is provided with a screw valve ρ. A cup-shaped attachment ν is screwed onto the other end of the cylinder. A ball w serves as a hammer. This sits on a stem x which is inserted through an opening in the cylinder base and screwed to the piston r.

The hammer jv can easily be replaced with the hammers shown in FIGS. Fig. 7 shows the releasably attached to the handle χ hammer y as a hemispherical hollow body. In FIG. 8, the hammer is formed by a screwed on the stem χ, only slightly hollowed plate \. The hammer shown in Fig. 9 consists of a plate ^ ¹ with a flat striking surface, while the hammer shown in Fig. 10 is formed by a grooved or butt-toothed plate \ ² . The hammer shapes can be changed in various ways without deviating from the inventive idea. Likewise, when using the membrane, as shown in FIG. 3, the hammer shape can be chosen quite arbitrarily.

In the machine shown in FIG. 11, the piston rods of two air pumps g are articulated to the crank pin of a flywheel f mounted in the bracket f ^1. The flywheel shaft is driven by an electric motor c ¹ by means of the belt d ^x . When the flywheel shaft rotates, the two air pumps swing around the bolts h. The connection with the tools is made through the flexible tubes or hoses j .
