Abstract: A massage device for manipulating a user includes a support member and a manipulator carried by the support member. The manipulator is adapted to engage and apply a shear force to the user. The manipulator is rotatable about at least one axis relative to the support member and a brake operably connected to the manipulator selectively adjusts rotation of the manipulator about the at least one axis so that the shear force applied to the user by the manipulator is adjusted. In automatically controlled embodiments, a controller adjusts the braking force according to signals received from a detector to prevent or reduce slippage of the roller and to dynamically control the magnitude of the shear force applied to the user. In manually embodiments, an operator adjusts the braking force to a fixed magnitude or dynamically adjusts the braking force to control the shear force applied to the user.

Abstract: An articulated bed includes head/back and foot/leg sections each provided with a conventional electrically powered motor driver for driving an associated massage/ vibrator motor. A remote control handset includes a microprocessor for generating time-of-day signals and a key pad is used to encode a bed code which is bed-specific and a wake time. The microcontroller compares a predetermined wake-time setting with present time of day and generates a wake authorization signal which is transmitted to a receiver associated with the bed. The received signal of the receiver is conducted to a microcontroller which authenticates the bed code signal and responsive thereto energizes one or both of the vibrators at the desired wake time, preferably initiating minimum vibrations and progressively increasing vibrations to a maximum to wake an individual in/upon the bed. The microcontroller of the receiver includes circuitry to automatically cut off the vibrator motor(s) after a predetermined length of vibration time, such as thirty (30) minutes, to assure vibration termination absent human intervention.

Abstract: A vibrating massage furniture cushion and a method for making such cushion is provided. The cushion is created by enclosing an electric motor-driven vibrator in a flexible material, such as a shrink-wrap plastic material, suspending the vibrator within a cushion-making form and creating the foam cushion by reacting one or more foam precursor chemicals within the form. As the foam is created, it automatically envelopes the vibrator, thereby rigidly retaining the vibrator in place within the cushion. Because the vibrator has been surrounded with the thin flexible material, the foam cannot enter the motor area during the foam creation step. Therefore, the foam creation step does not damage the motor or otherwise make it inoperable. The invention provides a simple and efficient way of making cushion-containing vibration massage articles without having to go through the step of sculpting out a recess for the vibrator within a finished cushion article.
