SURFACE ENERGY ENHANCING FLUID AND APPLICATIONS ON LIVING TISSUES
Devices and methods can be used to apply an adhesion promoter, for example, ozone, over the surface of the biological tissues, before and/or concurrently with the application of the cosmetics to improve the durability and/or appearance of the cosmetics on the biological tissues. The devices can include a recirculation system and/or a filter system to reduce the likelihood of the chemical being released into the atmosphere and/or to increase oxidation of the chemical generated by the device after use of the device.
Beauty apparatus
A beauty apparatus includes a main body having a gripper and a head attached to one end of the main body. A circular opening from which foam is discharged is provided in the head, and spherical rollers are provided on at least one shaft extending in a circumferential direction of the opening.
FOOT SPA TUB PUMP AND METHOD
A foot spa tub includes a tub basin, a first magnetic drive member rotatably coupled to a drive motor, and a first casing supporting the magnetic drive member. The first casing is disposed against an exterior surface of a sidewall of the basin. A second magnetic drive member is rotatably coupled to a blade. The first and second magnetic drive members are magnetically coupled to each other so that the blade is drivingly coupled to the drive motor. A nozzle houses the second magnetic drive member and the blade. The nozzle is detachably securable to an interior surface of the sidewall by a magnetic attraction force between the first and second magnetic drive members. A method of circulating liquid in a foot tub spa is also provided.
Foot spa
Disclosed is a disposable for use with a surface that defines a basin for receiving liquid. The disposable has a pair of surfaces spaced apart from one another by a tubular sidewall. One of the pair of surfaces is positioned, in use, against the basin-defining surface. In use, gas issues through the sidewall in the form of bubbles. The disposable is useful in association with foot spas and the like. A mechanism for puncturing a liner is also disclosed.
Mist Generating Device
A mist generating device is provided with: a housing provided with a water tank; a shaft portion provided inside the housing; an impeller disposed so as to be rotatable in the horizontal direction with the shaft portion as the rotation axis; and a nozzle jetting the water in the water tank to the impeller. the water jetted from the nozzle collides with the impeller to thereby smash the jetted water to cause mist. The housing is provided with an outside air introducing port, which is provided with outside air introducing means for actively introducing outside air into the housing, the housing is provided with a mist releasing port, the mist releasing port is smaller in opening diameter than the outside air introducing port, and the inside of the housing can be pressurized by the active introduction of outside air into the housing by the outside air introducing means.

Device and method for the application of a curable fluid composition to a portion of a bodily organ
Disclosed are devices and methods suitable for application of a curable fluid composition to a bodily organ, such as to a lower portion of a bodily organ. The device comprises a monolithic piece of material having a lower surface, two spaced-apart sides, and two spaced-apart walls connecting the two spaced-apart sides. A receptacle for containing the curable fluid composition is defined by the lower surface, the two sides, and the two walls. At least a portion of the height of the two walls is less than the height of at least a portion of the two sides. The device is deployable underneath the bodily organ such that a lower portion of the bodily organ is supported by at least a portion of each of the two walls.

Electrodes for Nitric Oxide Generation
Systems and methods for nitric oxide (NO) generation systems are provided. In some embodiments, an NO generation system comprises at least one pair of electrodes configured to generate a product gas containing NO from a flow of a reactant gas. The electrodes have elongated surfaces such that a plasma produced is carried by the flow of the reactant gas and glides along the elongated surfaces from a first end towards a second end of the electrode pair. A controller is configured to regulate the amount of NO in the product gas by the at least one pair of electrodes using one or more parameters as an input to the controller. The one or more parameters include information from a plurality of sensors configured to collect information relating to at least one of the reactant gas, the product gas, and a medical gas into which the product gas flows.
Pedicure chair with auto-fill system for a water basin and related methods
A pedicure chair with a basin having an auto-fill system for depositing water into the basin while eliminating spillover is disclosed. The auto-fill system has a controller, a water supply valve, and a water level sensor. The water level sensor can be a proximity sensor attached to an external surface of the basin. The water level sensor can send a signal to a controller when the water level sensor detects a predetermined water level in the basin. The controller can be configured to shut on and off the water supply to the basin by sending a signal to actuate the water supply valve.
