DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The parts in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of at least one embodiment. In the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the various diagrams, and all the diagrams are schematic.

[0017] Referring to FIG 1 and FIG. 2, a massage apparatus 1 includes a housing 11, an active assembly 13, a vibrating motor 15, a battery 17, a printed circuit board (PCB) 19 and a flexible component 21. The active assembly 13 is fixed on one side of the housing 11 approximately along an axis X. The vibrating motor 15, the battery 17 and the PCB 19 are located in the housing. The flexible component 21 clads the housing 11 and the active assembly 13. In the embodiment, the material of the flexible component 21 is silicon or the like.

[0018] Referring to FIG. 3, the active assembly 13 includes an adjusting motor 131, a plurality of adjustable element 132, a plurality of supporting element 133, a containing element 134 and a sealing element 135. The adjusting motor 131 is contained in the containing element 134. The adjustable elements 132 surrounding the axis X are disposed outside the adjusting motor 131. Each of the adjustable elements 132 has a first side 1321 and a second side 1323. The supporting elements 133 surrounding the axis X are located outside the adjustable element 132. Each of the supporting elements 133 is connected to the first side 1321 of the corresponding adjustable element 132. In the embodiment, the active assembly 13 has four adjustable elements 132 and four supporting elements 133. However, the number of adjustable elements 132 and the number of supporting elements 133 are not limited in the other embodiment.

[0019] The containing element 134 has an embedded opening 1341, which is fixed on one side 111 of the housing 11 approximately along the axis X. The adjusting motor 131 is located in the containing element 134 through the embedded opening 1341. The sealing element 135 is removable connected to the containing element 134 so as to fix the adjusting motor 131. The adjusting motor 131 is pulled out from the containing element 134 through the embedded opening 1341 after the sealing element 135 is removed. The battery 17 is electrically connected to the adjusting motor 131 and the vibrating motor 15 through the PCB 19. The battery 17 provides a power to the adjusting motor 131 and the vibrating motor 15 via the PCB 19.

[0020] Referring to FIG 4, the containing element 134 further has a whorl shaft 1343, a whorl tube 1345 and a plurality of turning parts 1347. The whorl shaft 1343 is passing through the whorl tube 1345. One side of the whorl shaft 1343 is connected to the adjusting motor 131. The turning parts 1347 surrounding the axis X are located outside the whorl tube 1345. Each of the turning parts 1347 is connected to the second side 1323 of the corresponding adjusting element 132. In the embodiment, the containing element 134 has four turning parts 1347. However, the number of turning part 1347 is not limited in the other embodiment.

[0021] When the massage apparatus 1 is enabled, the battery 17 provides the power to the adjusting motor 131 and the vibrating motor 15 so as to enable the adjusting motor 131 and the vibrating motor 15. The massage apparatus 1 results in vibration when the vibrating motor 15 is enabled. The strength of the vibration can be adjusted by controlling the adjusting motor 131. The active assembly 13 is driven for operating by the adjusting motor 131 so as to stretch the flexible component 21 to change the outward or the volume of the massage apparatus 1.

[0022] More detail, when the massage apparatus is enabled, the adjustment motor 131 drives the whorl shaft 1343 moving into the whorl tube 1345 so that the adjustable elements 132 driven by the turning parts 1347 to move toward directions different form the axis X, and then the flexible component 21 is adjusted by the supporting element 133 to move toward the directions different form the axis X.

[0023] In summary, the outward of the massage apparatus is transformed by adjusting the active assembly that is different from the action of vibrating or rotating. The flexible component is comfortable to contact with the skin of the user. More detail, the massage apparatus is a sexual massage apparatus that the flexible component is stretched by the active assembly, which is driven by the adjusting motor, to change the volume or the outward of the massage apparatus so as to rub the body of the user.

[0024] Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of certain inventive embodiments have been set out in the foregoing description, together with details of the structures and functions of the embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of arrangement of parts, within the principles of the present disclosure to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
