MECHANICAL SPINAL MASSAGING APPARATUS Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61H1/02 A61H15/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: mechanical spinal massaging apparatus comprises a massaging trolley configured in the form of a first balance lever, on arms of which there is a first pair of massaging rollers, and a second balance lever, on arms of which there is a second pair of massaging rollers, and a compression assembly. A balance lever axis is mounted perpendicularly to the direction of the massaging trolley. The compression assembly is mounted on the pair of displacement rollers under the massaging trolley and provided with a four-link lever mechanism, two additional links, an electric actuator and guides. One end of each pair of the links of the four-link lever mechanism is pivotally connected to the balance lever axis, while the other end - to a respective axis of the pair of the displacement rollers. Each of the two additional links is connected to the respective axis of the pair of the displacement rollers. Ends of the electric actuator rod are connected to the respective additional links of the compression assembly. The displacement rollers are mounted on the guides. Both balance levers are configured to adjust their position both in the direction of motion of the massaging trolley and perpendicularly thereto by forming long through slots in the balance levers; the above axis provided with a threaded section with attached retaining nuts extends through the slots.

EFFECT: invention enables enhancing the therapeutic possibilities of the device by giving the mechanical rotation massage of each spine.
