Body vibration apparatus
First Claim
1. A body vibration apparatus comprising:
- an at least partially rigid platform;
a first motor coupled to the platform such that movement of the first motor imparts force to the platform, the first motor having a first shaft that rotates in a first direction;
a first eccentric weight coupled to the first shaft such that the first eccentric weight rotates with the first shaft at a first phase and in a first plane;
a second motor coupled to the platform such that movement of the second motor imparts force to the platform, the second motor having a second shaft parallel to the first shaft that rotates in a second direction; and
a second eccentric weight coupled to the second shaft in the first plane such that the second eccentric weight rotates with the second shaft at the first phase.

Abstract
A body vibration apparatus includes an at least partially rigid platform, a first motor coupled to the platform such that movement of the first motor imparts force to the platform. The first motor has a first shaft that rotates a first eccentric weight in a first direction, phase and plane. A second motor is coupled to the platform such that movement of the second motor imparts force to the platform. The second motor has a second shaft parallel to the first shaft that rotates in a second direction, which, in one embodiment, is opposite the first direction. A second eccentric weight is coupled to the second shaft in the first plane. The second eccentric weight rotates with the second shaft at the first phase.
