Patent ID: 7207958

Claim:
A massage system comprising: a motor having an output shaft; at least one sliding block connected to the output shaft; at least one bellows, such that each bellows is connected to a corresponding one of the sliding blocks and moveable between an extended position and a retracted position, wherein when each bellows is moved from the extended to the retracted position air is expelled from the bellows, and wherein when each bellows is moved from the retracted to the extended position air is taken into the bellows; and wherein operation of the motor causes each sliding block to move between a first position and a second position, such that in the first position each sliding block compresses a corresponding one of the bellows to the retracted position and in the second position each sliding block releases said corresponding one of the bellows to the extended position, and wherein the output shaft of the motor comprises at least one eccentrically mounted bearing, such that each bearing is connected to a corresponding one of the sliding blocks to move said corresponding one of the sliding blocks between the first and second positions.
