Toe corrector
A toe corrector is provided including: a floor part; correction protrusions protruding between each toe from an upper surface of the floor part to correct the toes; a connection part for connecting the upper ends of the correction protrusions so that correction protrusions are put on toes to be fixed; and light emitting units for emitting light by independently generating electricity, which are provided inside the correction protrusions and on the floor part.
BUNION SPLINT ASSEMBLY WITH ADJUSTABLE SUPPORT CUSHION
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a bunion splint assembly comprising a flexible body shaped to conform to a human foot, an elongated rigid member disposed within fabric layers of the flexible body, and a ring-shaped cushion sized to encompass a bunion on the big toe that is adapted to be removably secured to an inner surface of the flexible body.
DEVICE FOR TREATING DYSARTHROSIS
A device for treating dysarthrosis includes a first base having one side surface for the heel of a human foot to be attached thereon; a second base having one end disposed on the side surface of the first base and one side surface for the sole of the human foot to be attached thereon; a push portion disposed on the second base and having an abutting surface corresponding in position to an outer side of the first toe of the human foot and configured to abut against an outer side of the first metatarsophalangeal joint of the first toe to be moved between a first position and a second position; and a support portion disposed on the second base and having one end located between the first toe and the second toe of the human foot for abutting against one side of the first toe.
Grip Enhancement and Protection for the Feet
This document presents a footwear article that covers the foot and ankle of the wearer. The footwear object protects the wearer's feet and ankle while improving blood circulation, and supporting the toes, arches, and ankles of the wearer. The footwear object is manufactured of layered fabrics that are knitted and/or woven from both man-made and natural fibers. The footwear object has portions providing compression, padding, and grip to provide support and prevent injury to the wearer's feet and ankles.
Heel float therapeutic footwear
A heel float therapeutic footwear for people that spend a large amount of time in bed. The heel float therapeutic footwear includes a lower leg support portion, a foot support portion, and a wing support structure. The foot support portion extends from the lower leg support portion and includes a foot support platform. The wing support structure is permanently attached to the foot support platform. The wing support structure is adjustably fastenable to a side of the lower leg support portion to adjustably support a position and an angle of the foot support platform with respect to the lower leg support portion. A method of making a heel float therapeutic footwear is also disclosed.
STOCKING
Stocking 10 with a foot part 11 for accommodating a human foot, wherein a support element 14 is positioned on a sole area 13 of the foot part such that the support element comes to lie under at least one metatarsal when the stocking is worn on the foot, wherein the support element has a curvature 15 facing the inside of the stocking.
FOOT-THERAPY AND TOE-ALIGNING DEVICE
Described is an exercise tool. More particularly, it is a therapy and exercise tool specifically devised as a foot-therapy and toe-aligning device to align, separate, and stretch toes. The foot-therapy and toe-aligning device comprises a frame with a plurality of posts connected with the frame. The device is formed of an elastic material such that a user may place at least one of the plurality of posts between a user's toes and pull the post to stretch and elongate the post between the toes. Upon release, the elastic material of the post causes the post to attempt to return to its original shape, thereby causing it to expand out and conform its shape to fit snugly against the user's toes. Additionally, the elastic material allows the toe posts to be positioned and maintained at numerous locations between the user's toes for customizable positioning between the toes.
TOE CORRECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A toe correction apparatus and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The toe correction apparatus includes: a first sensor attachable to a first side of a hallux proximate to a second toe for measuring first pressure information between the hallux and the second toe; and a processor, configured to determine a degree to which the hallux bends to the second toe according to the first pressure information, and control an inflation amount or a deflation amount of an adjustable airbag between the hallux and the second toe according to the degree to which the hallux bends to the second toe.
Foot Stretching Device
A foot stretching device with simultaneous toe spacing and dorsiflexion capabilities, where the toe-spacing elements are continuously adjustable along flexible guiderails to custom fit individual foot geometry, while the method of applying tension between the ankle and the forefoot via inelastic material to enable dorsiflexion also secures the toe spacing elements to the user's foot through a linkage with the ankle cuff of the device. Exchanging the inelastic material for one which is elastic and stretchable allows plantarflexion exercises to be performed with resistance.
Heel float therapeutic footwear
A heel float therapeutic footwear for people that spend a large amount of time in bed. The heel float therapeutic footwear includes a lower leg support portion, a foot support portion, and a wing support structure. The foot support portion extends from the lower leg support portion and includes a foot support platform. The wing support structure is permanently attached to the foot support platform. The wing support structure is adjustably fastenable to a side of the lower leg support portion to adjustably support a position and an angle of the foot support platform with respect to the lower leg support portion. A method of making a heel float therapeutic footwear is also disclosed.
