WEARABLE DEVICE FOR BODY CORRECTION
Disclosed herein is a wearable device for body correction, which is capable of adapting a position suitable for pressing a patient's body's curve to be corrected. To this end, the wearable device for body correction includes an outerwear worn on an upper body of a patient, a curve presser disposed on the outerwear and configured to press a curve of the body to be corrected, a strength adjuster disposed on the outerwear, connected to the curve presser by a wire, and configured to adjust a strength of pressure applied by the curve presser by adjusting an amount of winding/unwinding of the wire, and a guide rail disposed on the outerwear and configured to guide vertical sliding of at least one of the curve presser and the strength adjuster.
BACK BODY SUPPORT FOR POSTURE CORRECTION OR PAIN RELIEF
The present disclosure provides a back body support 1000 that is provided with the related assemblies, such as a primary elongated cushion member 100, a secondary elongated cushion member 200, a headrest extension member 300, a flexible seating support member 400, a tail bone and buttocks support member 500, a rigid seat member 600, and a posture correction member 700, which may be coupled to one another to provide one or more combinations to be used by a user in one or more ways, such as while sitting or while walking, to provide support to back portion thereof, particularly, along the spine, and pelvis and buttock portion of a body of the user.
Controlled tension device fastening devices, systems, and methods
Devices, systems, and methods for maintain a preselected tension between a first portion and a second portion of an orthotic brace include a controlled tension unit that includes a housing coupled to a first portion of the orthotic brace, the housing having a cavity formed therein, one or more constant-force spring mounted at or near a first end of the cavity, and a connector cable having a first end connected to an end of the one or more constant-force spring and a second end extending out of the housing through a second end of the cavity. The second end of the connector cable is configured to connect with a coupling element coupled to a second portion of the orthotic brace. In this arrangement, the controlled tension unit is configured to maintain a preselected tension between the first portion and the second portion of the orthotic brace.
