ABSTRACT:
A portable electro-mechanical system stimulates the human scalp by distributing vacuum and vibration generated by apparatus cooperatively operationally confined within a system helmet. A rigid plastic helmet includes an internal housing region in which a self contained vacuum generating motor is preferably vertically disposed for providing a rigorous vacuum. A resilient vibration distribution pad includes a plurality of individual spaced-apart fingers which extend towards and contact the scalp of the user, and between which a plurality of vacuum distribution voids are defined. A vibrator including a high velocity motor whose shaft is coupled to a rotatable eccentric is mechanically linked to the vibration pad, forcing the vibration fingers emanating integrally from the base portion of the pad to transmit vibration to the user's scalp. A dampening pad disposed between the vibration distribution pad and the helmet includes a vacuum port defined in such a position that fluid flow communication between the vacuum generating fan and the helmet housing permits vacuum to be distributed throughout the interior of the helmet and particularly between the downwardly projecting fingers of the vibration distributing pad. In the best mode the distribution pad is of a first density greater than the density of the dampening pad which is sandwiched between it and the confines of the helmet structure.
