Wireless tattoo device
A wireless tattoo device is disclosed. The device includes an electronics housing, a control panel, a power source, and a motor assembly driven by the power source. A motor housing is attached to the electronics housing, and the motor housing defines a passage dimensioned to receive a portion of the motor assembly. A grip defines an opening dimensioned to receive an end of the motor housing. The motor housing is configured to receive a needle cartridge. The motor housing and the grip are rotatable relative to each other such that a depth of the needle cartridge relative to the grip varies based on a relative rotation position between the motor housing and the grip.
1. A wireless tattoo device comprising:
an electronics housing, a control panel, a power source, and a motor assembly driven by the power source;
a motor housing attached to the electronics housing, the motor housing defining a passage dimensioned to receive a portion of the motor assembly, and the motor housing being configured to receive a needle cartridge, the motor housing comprising a post;
a needle depth adjustment system comprising an adjustment housing having a portion surrounding at least a portion of the motor housing, the adjustment housing comprising a groove having a first closed end and a second closed end, the first closed end axially set off from the second closed end, the post received in the groove; and
a grip defining an opening dimensioned to receive an end of the motor housing and the needle depth adjustment system, the motor housing and the grip being rotatable relative to each other such that a depth of the needle cartridge relative to the grip varies based on a relative rotation position between the motor housing and the grip, the grip and the adjustment housing attached wherein a rotational movement of the grip moves the post along the groove,
