Abstract:
A padded face rest and adjustment assembly for use with a body treatment device comprising:a padded face rest subassembly including a face pad adapted to receive a user's face, a pad support frame having an upper and lower surface, said face pad being attached to said upper surface of said pad support frame, first and second substantially parallel, spaced apart rails attached to said lower surface of said pad support frame, each of said rails having a locking member attached thereto; a body treatment device attachment subassembly including an attachment frame having an inner and outer surface, means extending from said inner surface of said attachment frame adapted to attach said attachment frame to a body treatment device, a pair of substantially parallel legs extending from said outer surface of said attachment frame, said legs being spaced apart a distance that is substantially equal to the distance said rails are spaced apart, each of said legs having a locking member attached thereto; a cam clamp adjustment subassembly including first and second substantially parallel cantilever members, each of said first and second cantilever members being comprised of first and second spaced apart, substantially parallel, cantilever plates having first and second ends, each of said first cantilever plates having a first locking member at said first end and a second locking member at said second end, said first locking member of said first cantilever plate of said first cantilever member adapted to be brought into contact with and lockingly engage said locking member attached to said first rail of said padded face rest, said first locking member of said first cantilever plate of said second cantilever member adapted to be brought into contact with and lockingly engage said locking member attached to said second rail of said padded face rest, said second locking member of said first cantilever plate of said first cantilever member adapted to be brought into contact with and lockingly engage a locking member attached to said first leg of said face rest attachment frame, said second locking member of said first cantilever plate of said second cantilever member adapted to be brought into contact with and lockingly engage a locking member attached to said second leg of said face rest attachment frame, a locking rod having first and second ends, said locking rod extending through the mid-portion of all of said cantilever plates, a cam clamp attached to said first end of said locking rod, said cam clamp having a cam surface in abutment with said first cantilever plate of said first cantilever member, spring means extending between the first and second ends of said first and second cantilever plates of each of said first and second cantilever members, said spring means urging apart said first and second plates of each of said first and second cantilever members when said cam surface of said cam clamp is in an unlocked mode, sid cam surface adapted, upon rotation, to cause said first and second plates of each of said first and second cantilever members to be pulled towards each other to thereby lockingly engage adjacent locking members.
