Abstract

A reciprocal treatment device. The reciprocal treatment device includes a battery, a motor, a trigger, an actuated output, and a treatment structure. The trigger is in electrical communication with the battery and the motor. The trigger selectively provides power from the battery to the motor. The actuated output is operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. The treatment structure is operatively connected to the actuated output.

Claims (35)

1 . A reciprocal treatment device comprising:

a battery;

a motor;

a trigger in electrical communication with the battery and the motor, the trigger configured to selectively provide power from the battery to the motor;

an actuated output operatively connected to the motor configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor; and

a treatment structure operatively connected to the actuated output.

2 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment structure comprises a compliant material.

3 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment structure comprises a polymer.

4 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment structure has a substantially spherical shape.

5 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 4 , wherein the treatment structure has a diameter between one half inch and three inches.

6 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 4 , wherein the treatment structure has a diameter of one and one half inches.

7 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 4 , wherein the treatment structure has a diameter of one half inch.

8 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment structure has a substantially conical shape and a rounded distal end.

9 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the treatment structure comprises a plurality of lobes.

10 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 9 , wherein the treatment structure comprises two lobes separated by a valley.

11 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , further comprising a linkage to convert rotary motion from the motor to reciprocating motion.

12 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the reciprocating motion of the actuated output has an amplitude between one inch and one quarter inch.

13 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the reciprocating motion of the actuated output has a user-adjustable amplitude.

14 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein the trigger is a variable trigger that selectively adjusts a rate of the reciprocating motion in response to an amount of activation of the trigger.

15 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein a rate of the reciprocating motion is between 30 Hz and 80 Hz.

16 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , further comprising a trigger lock to restrict movement of the trigger.

17 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 1 , wherein an angle of the actuated output relative to other components of the reciprocal treatment device is adjustable.

18 . A reciprocal treatment device comprising:

an electrical input;

a motor;

a trigger in electrical communication with the electrical input and the motor, the trigger configured to selectively provide power from the electrical input to the motor;

an actuated output operatively connected to the motor configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor; and

a treatment structure operatively connected to the actuated output.

19 . The reciprocal treatment device of claim 18 , wherein the electrical input comprises a plug for connection to a household socket.

20 . A reciprocal treatment device comprising:

a battery;

a motor;

a variable trigger in electrical communication with the battery and the motor, the trigger configured to selectively provide power from the battery to the motor and to selectively vary a rate of reciprocation;

an actuated output operatively connected to the motor configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor; and

a treatment structure comprising a compliant material operatively connected to the actuated output.
