Eccentric swivel type massaging device

A massaging device includes a main body, a massaging member rotatably and eccentrically mounted on the main body, and a covering member mounted on the main body to encompass the massaging member completely. Thus, the shade of the covering member encompasses the massaging member completely, so that the massaging member will not be exposed outward from the main body, thereby providing a better viewing effect to the user. In addition, the shade of the covering member encompasses the massaging member completely to prevent dirt or dust from entering the massaging member and the main body, thereby facilitating maintenance of the massaging device.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a massaging device, and more particularly to an eccentric swivel type massaging device that can produce vibration eccentrically so as to provide a massaging effect.

2. Description of the Related Art

A conventional eccentric swivel type massaging device in accordance with the prior art shown inFIGS. 5 and 6comprises a main body30, and a massaging member31rotatably and eccentrically mounted on the main body30. The massaging member31produces an eccentric rotation relative to the main body30by a drive motor (not shown) co-operating with a connecting member (not shown) mounted in the main body30. In operation, when the massaging member31is rotated on the main body30eccentrically, the eccentric rotation of the massaging member11produces vibration, thereby providing a massaging effect to the user. However, the massaging member31is protruded and exposed outward from the main body30, thereby providing an uncomfortable viewing effect to the user. In addition, the massaging member31is exposed outward from the main body30, so that dirt or dust easily enters the gap between the massaging member31and the main body30, thereby contaminating the massaging device.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a massaging device, comprising: a main body; a massaging member rotatably and eccentrically mounted on the main body; and a covering member mounted on the main body to encompass the massaging member completely.

The primary objective of the present invention is to provide an eccentric swivel type massaging device that can produce vibration eccentrically so as to provide a massaging effect.

Another objective of the present invention is to provide a massaging device, wherein the shade of the covering member encompasses the massaging member completely, so that the massaging member will not be exposed outward from the main body, thereby providing a better viewing effect to the user.

A further objective of the present invention is to provide a massaging device, wherein the shade of the covering member encompasses the massaging member completely to prevent dirt or dust from entering the massaging member and the main body, thereby facilitating maintenance of the massaging device.

A further objective of the present invention is to provide a massaging device, wherein the shade of the covering member covers the massaging member and the main body, thereby enhancing the outer appearance of the massaging device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring to the drawings and initially toFIGS. 1-3, a massaging device in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a main body10, a massaging member11rotatably and eccentrically mounted on the main body10, and a covering member20mounted on the main body10to encompass the massaging member11completely. The massaging member11produces an eccentric rotation relative to the main body10by a drive motor (not shown) co-operating with a connecting member (not shown) mounted in the main body10.

The main body10has a peripheral wall formed with an annular locking groove101.

The covering member20includes a shade21secured on the main body10to encompass the massaging member11completely, and a retaining ring22mounted between the shade21and the main body10to fix the shade21on the main body10.

The shade21of the covering member20is made of soft material and has an inside formed with a receiving chamber212to encompass the massaging member11completely.

The retaining ring22of the covering member20has an inner wall formed with an annular locking flange221detachably inserted into and locked in the locking groove101of the main body10, so that the retaining ring22is fixed on the main body10.

The shade21of the covering member20has an open lower peripheral wall210rested on an outer wall of the retaining ring22. The lower peripheral wall210of the shade21is formed with a hook-shaped bent portion211rested on the inner wall of the retaining ring22and located between the locking groove101of the main body10and the locking flange221of the retaining ring22, so that the shade21is secured on the peripheral wall of the main body10by the retaining ring22.

When the shade21of the covering member20is worn out during a long-term utilization, the locking flange221of the retaining ring22is detached from the locking groove101of the main body10to detach the retaining ring22from the main body10so as to release the shade21from the main body10, thereby facilitating a user replacing the shade21.

In operation, referring toFIGS. 1-4, when the massaging member11is rotated on the main body10eccentrically, the shade21of the covering member20produces vibration due to the eccentric rotation of the massaging member11, thereby providing a massaging effect to the user.

Accordingly, the shade21of the covering member20encompasses the massaging member11completely, so that the massaging member11will not be exposed outward from the main body10, thereby providing a better viewing effect to the user. In addition, the shade21of the covering member20encompasses the massaging member11completely to prevent dirt or dust from entering the massaging member11and the main body10, thereby facilitating maintenance of the massaging device. Further, the shade21of the covering member20covers the massaging member11and the main body10, thereby enhancing the outer appearance of the massaging device.
