A portable therapeutic device includes a portable body having a recessed central region and a raised outer peripheral edge surrounding the recessed central region and directly engaged with the recessed central region, a plurality of massage balls seated at the recessed central region and spaced inside a perimeter of the raised outer peripheral edge, a thermal-conductive element channeled inside the outer peripheral edge and spaced from the recessed central region, and a power source communicatively coupled to the massage balls and the thermal-conductive element.

A foot massaging assembly for massaging a user's feet includes a stand that may be positioned on a support surface. The stand may be vertically oriented on the support surface. A massage unit is slidably coupled to the stand. A bottom side corresponding to each of a user's feet may be rolled on the massage unit. Thus, the massage unit may massage the user's feet. The massage unit is selectively positioned at a selected point along the stand.

It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a massage unit and a massage machine which can increase a protruding amount of a massage ball. A massage unit 700 includes a pair of massage elements 350; a forward-backward axis 722 forming a swinging fulcrum point for moving the pair of massage elements 350 toward a body of a person to be treated; and an up-and-down axis 732 for moving the massage unit, wherein the forward-backward axis 722 is formed in parallel with the up-and-down axis 732 and provided nearer to the side of the body of the person to be treated than the up-and-down axis 732.

Provided is a device useful for facial beauty treatment by efficiently releasing ligaments, SMAS fascia, and the like, and having a compact structure with multiple functions and an ease for a user to use at home.

The present invention provides a device (1) that has a massage function by rolling of a roller (3), a suction function by a suction portion (4), and a stimulation function by outputting a stimulation signal by a conductive element (34) fixed to a bottom surface (23) or a roller (3), and can efficiently and reliably implement an effect such as releasing the ligaments such as a facial skin of a user. In addition, since a circumferential protrusion (61) is formed on the peripheral edge of an opening portion (24) for performing suction so as to surround the opening portion (24), it is possible to enhance confidentiality during suction by the suction portion (4), and the effect described above can be efficiently exhibited. And the device (1) has multiple functions and a compact structure, which is easy for the user to use even at home.

A sturdy portable massage roller that collapses flat. The roller includes an outer contact skin formed of a plurality of longitudinal stiffeners connected by longitudinally-extending hinge points, the contact skin defining an inner cavity. A collapsible support structure within the contact skin inner cavity is sized to contact and radially support the longitudinal stiffeners in the expanded shape of the contact skin, and is adapted to collapse so that the massage roller converts between a generally cylindrical expanded shape and a collapsed, flattened shape. The support structure may include a series of rigid discs that either pivot or are folded in half to convert the massage roller between its expanded and flat configurations.

There is provided a bed device comprising: a support plate; a spring mattress provided on the support plate; a mat provided on the spring mattress; and a hot-air supply device for supplying hot air into the spring mattress, wherein the hot-air supply device is received in the spring mattress, wherein the hot-air supply device includes: a hot-air generation unit for generating hot-air; a hot-air discharge tube protruding from the hot-air generation unit by a predetermined length to discharge the hot-air generated in the hot-air generation unit into the spring mattress; and two hot-air guide members symmetrically disposed about the hot-air discharge tube, wherein the two air guide members are configured to guide the hot-air such that the hot air discharged from the hot-air discharge tube is distributed uniformly over an entire area of the spring mattress.

Systems and methods for operating a vending machine and/or kiosk. The methods comprise: detecting a presence of a person in a seat of the vending machine; obtaining a full or partial body heat map for the person that was created based on sensor data generated by at least one sensor of the vending machine or at least one sensor located in proximity to the vending machine (the full or partial heat map showing relative temperatures of different parts of a body of the person); selecting at least one vending service parameter for the vending machine using information obtained based on the full or partial body heat map; and causing the vending machine to provide the person with a vending service in accordance with the at least one vending service parameter that was selected.
