Abstract:
1. An electric shower masseuse machine that is mounted in an existing shower enclosure and cleans and massages people's bodies in a very short time, said machine comprising: a. A housing unit that contains a gear motor operated by rechargeable batteries, which rotates an upper shaft inside an upper pulley in a counter-clockwise direction while connecting to a lower pulley by a round rubber belt in a figure 8 configuration, thereby driving a lower shaft which is inside a lower pulley that is connected to a block that is attached to the base of said housing unit, thereby allowing said shafts to rotate in opposite directions, with said lower shaft also using two sets of rods inside tubes that compress and slide inside each other to allow said lower shaft to move backwards and forwards while it is rotating and be pulled to its original position with a spring, with said figure 8 configuration of said round rubber belt requiring a separator to be fastened to said housing unit in such a way that said separator is positioned at the exact level at which said round rubber belt crosses itself in said figure 8 configuration, with said separator consisting of four parts: (1) a nail which is placed inside (2) a freely rotating hollow metal tube, (3) the pierced tip of said nail which is secured by a pin to (4) a rubber block that is mounted to the wall of said housing unit and holds said separator in a position perpendicular to the inside wall of said housing unit, thereby allowing said separator to move freely from left to right to follow within the motion of said round rubber belt and the motion of said lower shaft; b. Two rotating rubber disk wheels that are connected, one to said upper shaft and one to said lower shaft on the outside of said housing unit of said machine to clean and massage people's bodies while rotating in opposite directions for stability, in which said lower shaft allows said lower rubber disk wheel to move freely backwards and forwards while it is rotating to continuously touch the contours of the user's body, with each of said rubber disk wheels being designed in three parts: a rigid back support, flexible foam padding that creates a convex shape, and a waterproof rubber cover; c. A mounting apparatus consisting of a hollow horizontal hanging bar connected to one outer and one inner hollow vertical holding bar that slide, one inside the other, to raise and lower said machine using a pulley cord connected to a set of upper and lower pulleys in series that are attached to said inner vertical hollow holding bar to distribute the weight of said machine for lifting and lowering, and an H-shaped notch around which to wrap said pulley cord to position said machine at any desired height, said notch being located at the end of a multi-function holder which is mounted to said inner vertical hollow holding bar; and said hollow horizontal hanging bar being anchored securely between the top of an existing shower door frame and its opposite wall by installing on said opposite wall a horizontal hollow rail that includes a track into which slides one end of said hollow horizontal hanging bar, with the other end of said hollow horizontal hanging bar being mounted to the existing shower door frame by two control knobs, so as that the outer control knob is positioned on the outside of the top of the existing shower door frame and the inner control knob is positioned on the inside of the top of the existing shower door frame, with a strong hidden spring connecting said inner control knob to the nearer end of said hollow horizontal hanging bar, with said strong hidden spring serving two functions: to pull said end of said hollow horizontal hanging bar toward said opposite wall of the existing shower enclosure and to hold said inner control knob tightly toward the top of the existing shower door frame, thereby allowing said machine to be securely mounted in the existing shower enclosure while allowing the user to slide said machine closer or farther from the existing shower head; d. A back support system to position said machine securely against the back wall of the shower enclosure, consisting of a T-shaped plastic rail, whereby the top of said T-shaped plastic rail is connected to the back of the body of the said machine and whose lower part includes an open channel in the middle large enough to allow a screw to move freely along the channel; and two arms which are also attached to the top of said T-shaped plastic rail, and whose opening and closing are controlled by said screw located at the top of said channel and a hollow square ring surrounding the said channel and that contains a square plate with sharp teeth at the upper surface inside the bottom of said square ring, as follows: once the desired position of said arms is achieved, said screw is tightened, pulling said sharp surface teeth of said plate to tighten toward said T-shaped plastic rail, causing the said sharp surface teeth of said internal plate to grip said channel of said T-shaped plastic rail firmly at any distance from the shower enclosure wall; and e. A soapy water delivery system that provides a continuous supply of clean soapy water to wet the body of the user, by which the user places soapy water in a water container which is attached to said multi-function holder, and a soapy water dispensing tube is connected to said water container in such a way that it can be raised or lowered to allow said soapy water flow to wet the body of the user via gravity, the rate of flow of said soapy water also being controlled by pushing said soapy water dispensing tube up or down, and on which said soapy water dispensing tube also is equipped with a soft rubber extension tip to ensure gentleness when it touches the body of the user.
