11510649 · 2022-11-29 ·

Apparatuses and methods utilizing tactile transducers to create mechanical waves that travel through an individual's body to the kidneys to dislodge kidney stones. Embodiments include a structural member with at least one tactile transducer, an amplifier, and a controller. The tactile transducer(s) produce mechanical waves, and the structural member enables projection of the mechanical waves produced by the tactile transducer(s) toward at least one kidney to dislodge kidney stones. The amplifier is electronically coupled to the at least one tactile transducer, and the controller is electronically coupled to the amplifier and configured to determine the mechanical waves produced by the at least one tactile transducer.

Devices and methods for delivering mechanical stimulation to nerve, mechanoreceptor, and cell targets

Presented herein are systems, methods, and devices that provide for stimulation of nerves and/or targets such as mechanoreceptors, tissue regions, mechanoresponsive proteins, and vascular targets through generation and delivery of mechanical vibrational waves. In certain embodiments, the approaches described herein utilize a stimulation device (e.g., a wearable device) for generation and delivery of the mechanical vibrational waves. As described herein, the delivered vibrational waves can be tailored based on particular targets (e.g., nerves, mechanoreceptors, vascular targets, tissue regions) to stimulate and/or to elicited particular desired responses in a subject.

HUMAN BODY STIMULATION DEVICE AND HUMAN BODY STIMULATION METHOD USING HUMAN BODY STIMULATION DEVICE
20220362098 · 2022-11-17 ·

A human body stimulation device and a human body stimulation method using the human body stimulation device. A human body stimulation device includes a human body stimulation unit including a sonic vibration module configured to apply sonic vibration to a body of the user, at least one motor configured to move the sonic vibration module, a position detection unit configured to detect a position of the sonic vibration module, and a controller. The controller determines a body part corresponding to the detected position of the sonic vibration module and controls the sonic vibration module to output the sonic vibration based on characteristics of the body part.

Percussion Massager Having a Temperature-Controlled Massage Node

A temperature-controlled massage node that imparts either or both a heating or cooling effects is provided, which may be attached to a massager to impart a heating or cooling effect on a user with a massage effect, or optionally, without a massage effect. The temperature-controlled massage node may be affixed to the massager or may be removably coupled. The temperature-controlled massage node may be powered by the same power source as the massager or may include an independent power source located, for example, in the massage node. The massage node may be used with a massager that provides percussive massage effects, such as a massage gun, or may be used with a vibrating massager. Optionally, the massage node may include independent power, a controller and a motor to supply both a vibrating massage effect and hot and cold effect, either alone or in combination.

Percussive massage device having a USB port
11497674 · 2022-11-15 · ·

A percussive massage device includes an upper half housing, an electric motor, a lower half housing, and a handle. In response to activating the motor, the eccentric counterweight rotates. And in turn, the link converts the rotational motion of the counterweight into a reciprocating linear motion of the follower. The application head strongly moves back and forth to treat body stress or pain of a user.

Percussive massage device

A percussion massager comprises a motor, a reciprocating assembly, a mallet, a power source, a housing, and a fixing frame. The motor, the reciprocating assembly and the power source are operably arranged in the housing. The motor comprises a main body and a first rotary shaft. Part of the mallet is not located in the housing. The first rotary shaft of the motor is operably mechanically connected with the reciprocating assembly. The reciprocating assembly is mechanically connected with the mallet. The fixing frame is installed in the housing. The main body of the motor and the reciprocating assembly are installed on the fixing frame. The main body of the motor and the reciprocating assembly are installed in the housing via the fixing frame only. When the motor is electrically connected with the power source, it rotates to drive the reciprocating assembly to reciprocate under the driving of the power source, thereby driving the mallet to make reciprocating linear motion for repeated striking.
