LEG CARE APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
A leg care apparatus includes a main body configured to provide an action space in which a leg is accommodated and at least one action space adjustment module configured to adjust a size of the action space. Accordingly, a leg may be cared to fit a size and length of the user's leg.
Sauna heating panel power distribution systems and methods
Power feed connections and sauna heating panels include a power feed having a first insulated conductor electrically coupled to a first terminal and a second insulated conductor electrically coupled to a second terminal. The first and second terminals are electrically coupled with at least one heating element. In some cases the power feed includes a supply portion, a connection portion, and an extension portion. The extension portion has one or more conductors in a twisted configuration extending away from the first and second terminals. In some cases the power feed includes an extension conductor portion coupled to a return conductor portion in a twisted configuration. The extension portion extends away from a second terminal past a second connection point and the return portion returns back to and connects to the second connection point at the second terminal. Methods for providing power connections to heating panels are also provided.
Dynamic sauna
Systems and methods are provided for controlling infrared radiation (IR) sources of a sauna including tuning IR wavelength-ranges and radiated power-levels of IR sources, and directing IR to locations on a user's body. In one illustrative embodiment, a sauna may be provided having adjustable IR emitters to emit IR at any wavelength resulting in a desirable radiation treatment for the sauna user. In another illustrative embodiment, a method is provided for tuning IR emitters in a sauna.
STEAM SYSTEM AND METHOD
A steam generator for a shower steam system includes a first chamber, a second chamber, and an intermediate heat transfer member. The first chamber is configured to receive water. The second chamber is configured to receive a flow of air. The intermediate heat transfer member fluidly separates the first chamber from the second chamber. The intermediate heat transfer member includes a heating element configured to generate heat energy. The intermediate heat transfer member is configured to transfer heat energy generated by the heating element to the first chamber to generate steam in the first chamber, and transfer heat energy generated by the heating element to the flow of air in the second chamber.
Sauna Heating Apparatus and Methods
An apparatus for a sauna includes a first and second heating element. The first heating element has a first conductive path and is coupled to pass a current. The second heating element has a second conductive path that runs adjacent to the first conductive path. The second heating element substantially blocks an electric field produced within the first heating element. The first conductive path is coupled to redirect the current to the second conductive path and set up complementary magnetic fields between the first and second heating elements.
Folding sauna enclosure
A portable, personal therapy chamber for provision of radiation therapy. The therapy chamber includes a pair of telescopically positionable units that are lightweight and easily portable by a single user. The therapy chamber is configured for use by a single person lying generally prone on a surface. The units are formed from a plurality of pivotably coupled panels that are foldable in a first direction to a rolled up, tube-like storage configuration and unfoldable in a second direction to an arched formation or use configuration. The units, in the use configuration, are disposed to overlie the user and include a plurality of emitters that direct infrared energy toward the user's body.
Shower attachment to keep steam within a bathroom shower
A shower attachment to keep steam within a bathroom shower includes a plurality of telescopic rods, a first dome panel, a second dome panel, at least one inner fastener, and at least one outer fastener. The plurality of telescopic rods is mounted opposite of each other and functions as a framing structure. The first dome panel and the second dome panel are slidably positioned offset of each other to fit within opposing walls of a bathroom shower. The first dome panel and the second dome panel are terminally mounted to each other by the at least one inner fastener and the at least one outer fastener so that the first dome panel and the second dome panel can position atop the plurality of telescopic rods. Resultantly, the first dome panel and the second dome panel are able to trap the steam vapor within a bathroom shower.
Sauna heating apparatus and methods
In one embodiment, the present invention includes an apparatus to heat a body. A first conductive path and/or a second conductive path include a resistive heating element that produces heat from said current. The first conductive path is coupled to redirect the current to the second conductive path and set up complementapy magnetic fields between said first and second layers. A third layer substantially blocks an electric field produced from the resistive heating element included in the first layer and/or second layer.
