Abstract (en)

[origin: DE202004021275U1] A rod-shaped massage appliance has a flexible rubber sheath separated by sliding blocks from an internal rotating core with a helical profile. The rotating helical profile impinges on that array of plastic blocks, which rise and fall with respect to the core axis to generate a body massage. In an alternative embodiment, the massage unit has three or more parallel arrays of rotating helical spindles interacting with spring-mounted plungers or half-cups lifted by centrifugal forces.
