The nozzles are configured to spray water from the water tank. The set of motorized wheels and the directional wheel are configured to move and rotate the chair, respectively. The emergency stop button is configured to stop the chair from moving.
FLOATING MATTRESS CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING AT LEAST ONE USER OR ONE OBJECT ON THE WATER THANKS TO THE BUOYANCY THEREOF
A floating mattress capable of supporting at least one user or one object on the water, comprising a set of foam layers, the set of foam layers comprising a plurality of foam layers including at least one first buoyancy layer comprising a first foam composition, the first buoyancy layer being intended to be positioned opposite to the surface of the water and a second comfort layer comprising a second foam composition, the second comfort layer being intended to be opposite to the at least one user or object.
METHODS FOR IMPROVING UPTAKE OF BOTULINUM NEUROTOXIN
Methods for increasing specific uptake of a Botulinum neurotoxin are provided. Specific neurotoxin uptake by cells capable of being intoxicated by Botulinum neurotoxin is enhanced by increasing temperature from about 37 C. to up to about 41 C., as indicated by a decrease in the EC.sub.50 found for cells so treated. The effect requires the presence of both heavy and light chains of the Botulinum neurotoxin, and is serotype selective.
Ultimate tanning lounge
An inflatable tanning lounge for prone or supine use in absolute comfort, with better resistance to bending. Thus a user laying prone will not hyper-extend their back, because the craft remains straight. An improved headrest design with improved structural integrity preventing the aft perimeter of the headrest from folding down when a user, laying prone, places their forehead upon the aft perimeter of the headrest. Said user's face is removed from the sun, and held above the craft, unconfined, with abundant ventilation in total comfort. When laying supine, the headrest provides a large area for a user's entire head. Lay prone or supine in bed like comfort. Another feature is an open walled cavity vertically through the craft, beneath the headrest and below user's face laying prone. This cavity provides tremendously more space below the user's face, more ventilation, and is claustrophobic friendly.
FLOATING LOUNGE WITH ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT MEMBER
A floating lounge comprising an outer, buoyant member surrounding a support member in the form of a panel of material extending forward from the rear of the lounge. The support member wraps around the front end of the lounge and extends back toward the rear of the lounge. Connectors provided on the longitudinal edges of the support member allow the forward-extending portion of the support member to be secured to the rearward-extending portion to form a sling depending between the front and rear sides of the lounge, for supporting the user, and whereby the user may choose among several possible shapes for the support member by appropriately mating the sets of connectors.
Portable mattress seating apparatus
A portable mattress seating apparatus attachable to a mattress. The portable mattress seating apparatus clips onto a location on the peripheral of any conventional mattress. The apparatus has a retaining member that is retained under a mattress and above the box spring. The retaining member is attached to a vertical member adjacent to the side of the mattress. The vertical member is attached to another seating member that is oriented parallel to the top of the mattress face. The seat member is attached to a back-rest member. The back-rest member is attached to the seating member distal to the side of the mattress. The back-rest member is adjustable, allowing the back rest to be at acute, obtuse or 90-degree angles to the seating member. Further, the apparatus includes supporting members to spread the weight of a seated person.
Personal flotation device
A horseshoe shaped personal flotation device is buoyant and can be used in a number or positions to float a person on the water and retain a beverage. The horseshoe shaped flotation device has a left and right armrest that extend out from an arced shaped closed end and dual cup holder, on the extended end of the armrest, has an cup cylinder to retain a beverage in the vertical orientation and an end cup holder to retain a beverage in an orthogonal orientation to the cup cylinder. The flotation device can be used in an underarm-floating configuration and a beverage can be retained in the cup cylinder, or used in a saddle, hammock or back floating configuration with a beverage retained in the end cup holder. The flotation device can be extended to spread the left and right armrest apart for some flotation methods.
MODULAR SEXUAL ASSISTANCE APPARATUS
The modular sexual assistance apparatus comprises a secure structure (A) able to support a user. The secure structure (A) comprises a carriage (12) arranged on a linear guide and mounted on a pedestal (8). The linear guide comprises a safety device which is suitable for controlling a linear travel of the carriage (12). The linear guide comprises a system for slaving by an elastic cable (30). It comprises a stopper ball (33) and is suitable for entering both a locking catch (32) secured to the pedestal (8) and a ring (31) secured to the carriage (12). A tensed state of the elastic cable (30) is defined both by a movement of the stopper ball (33) along the pedestal (8) and by a clamped slate of the elastic cable (30) in the locking catch (32).
Modular furniture assembly
A modular furniture assembly includes: a base member having a frame assembly, a transverse member having a frame assembly, a foot configured to contact a support surface, and a mounting platform having a plurality of apertures therethrough. The mounting platform is configured to be mounted on the base member frame assembly and the transverse member frame assembly, thereby connecting the frame assemblies. The foot is selectively mounted on the mounting platform, such that the foot is configured to contact the support surface when the modular furniture assembly is in an upright configuration. The mounting platform connects the base and transverse member frame assemblies together and also acts as a platform for receiving a variety of different types of feet.
Collapsible flotation device
A collapsible flotation device is provided that uses a coilable spring coupled to a panel to collapse the device when the spring is coiled, and to expand the device when the spring is uncoiled configuration. The spring can be contained within a sleeve along the outer portion of the panel. A support member that traverses the panel is provided. An inflatable bladder disposed about a part of the outer portion of the panel and coupled to the support member buoyantly supports a body weight of a user. The combination of the inflatable bladder and the support member provide support for a user in a seated position on the panel. Many configurations are disclosed, including a multi-user collapsible flotation device, multiple connected single-user flotation devices, and so forth. A back support member and a headrest, both of which can be inflatable, provide additional support for a user to maintain a seated position on the panel. A foot support member is provided for the comfort of the user.
