RELEASABLE WHEEL MOUNT SYSTEM FOR A ROLLATOR
The invention describes a releasable wheel mount system for a rollator comprising a wheel axel (1) fastened to a frame (2) comprising a groove (3) near an outer end of the wheel axel (1) and a circular sloped gliding surface (25) at the outer end. The system further comprises a release trigger (4) engaging the groove (4) by means a locking shape (5) locking the release trigger (4) and wheel axel (1) to each other, and releasing the release trigger (4) from the wheel axel (1) a releasing shape (6). The system further comprises a housing (7) with a central cylinder (8) with a cavity accommodating the wheel axel (1), an outer (9) and inner (10) rim stopper, and a trigger cavity (11) accommodating the release trigger, thus locking the release trigger (4) and housing (7) to each other and to the wheel axel.
DISPOSABLE, INFLATABLE DEVICE FOR STIMULATION OF MALE GENITALIA AND COLLECTION OF SEMEN
The present disclosure describes a sexual aid device for the stimulation of male genitalia and the collection of semen. Upon manufacture, the sexual aid device includes an uninflated inner chamber, an elongated extension extending from the inner chamber, and an inflation passage in fluid communication with the inner chamber for subsequent inflation of the device. Prior to inflation and use, the elongated extension is inserted into the inner chamber, where upon inflation the elongated extension forms an internal passageway that is isolated from the inner chamber and arranged to accommodate a user's penis. Once inflated, the inflation passage is sealed such that the air or other gases are captured in the inner chamber and the inner chamber remains inflated. After use, the passageway captures any ejaculated semen. The device is deflated in a manner that secures any semen within the device for subsequent retrieval for medical use or disposal.
ROTOMOLDED SPA AND METHOD OF HANDLING A SPA
There is disclosed a spa. The spa generally having a unibody shell having a base, a peripheral wall extending from the base up to a rim portion, a basin suspended from the rim portion, and at least one opening in the peripheral wall, the basin, the rim portion, the peripheral wall and the base defining a cavity therebetween, the at least one opening exposing the cavity, the base having a pair of channels recessed from the base towards the cavity; and a modular panel having a main panel covering the opening while exposing the pair of channels, and a subpanel engageable to the main panel and covering at least partially the pair of channels.
HAND ANTI-STRESS AND/OR REHABILITATION DEVICE
A hand anti-stress and or rehabilitation device that has two support bases where a metal rod stands with rounded rotating parts incorporating magnets that are fixed, or have a mobile union that allows to exert pressure on them, is disclosed. Optionally, it has, coupled fixed or dismountable, at each of the rod ends, a spring, or similar, at the distal end thereof, a lateral gripping part with four circular recesses to insert the fingers.
CUEING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TREATING WALKING DISORDERS
Devices used to cue a user to take a step when experiencing a walking disorder, such as a freezing of gait episode, are disclosed. The devices are configured to cue the user with a visual and/or audible cue. The devices include an activation module and a cueing module. The cueing module includes a metronome and a laser light source. The devices are mounted on an assistive mobility device or on the user.
Remote modular system and method for delivering cpr compression
A method for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes supplying an inflation gas at an operative pressure to an inflation actuated soft gripper device to change form from an undeployed state to a deployed grip state that accommodates and grips a human torso. The inflation actuated soft gripper device includes a first inflatable gripper arm having a first distal end and a second inflatable gripper arm having a second distal end. The first distal end and the second distal end approach one another from the undeployed state to the deployed grip state. The first and second distal ends are spaced apart from one another further in the undeployed state than in the deployed grip state. An actuator power and a CPR control signal are delivered to a CPR pressure application device to cyclically extend and retract a pressure applicator along an axis in alignment with a sternum of the human torso.
AUTOMATED CARDIAC MASSAGE DEVICE AND METHOD
An automated cardiac massage device has two dynamic, multilayered compressive units oriented to compress the heart using an outer, non-compliant layer which supports an inner layer made of expandable and compressive material configured to contract and expand to facilitate cardiac filling and ejection. The compressive units are attached to a flexible apex member which modulates the shape and position of the two compressive units to provide maximal apposition to the heart while the device remains in use. Barometric pressure sensors may be incorporated on the inner layer of the compressive unit to measure the systolic and filling diastolic pressure within the heart. A third, detachable, phalange arises from the flexible apex member to provide a third station of support for the heart should the configuration of the compressive units require an additional point of support to secure the heart within the apparatus.
CURTAIN FOR A ROLLING WALKER
A curtain (20) for use by a user with a rolling walker (10) including a walker frame (12) having a front frame section (24) and a pair of opposed side frame sections (26) that are coupled to the front frame section (24), includes a curtain body (20A) and a coupling assembly (22). The curtain body (20A) is configured to wrap around the rolling walker (10) so that at least 75% of each of the front frame section (24) and the side frame sections (26) are covered by the curtain body (20A). The coupling assembly (22) is configured to couple the curtain body (20A) to the walker frame (12) of the rolling walker (10). The curtain body (20A) can be reversibly coupled to the walker frame (12). The coupling assembly (22) can include one or more coupling members (22A), wherein each of the one or more coupling members (22A) have at least one of a length and a position that is sufficient to accommodate frame members (12A) of the walker frame (12) having different circumferences.
Upper body attachment apparatus for whole body vibration equipment
An upper body attachment, which may be used with a piece of exercising, stretching, or massaging equipment that incorporates whole body vibration (WBV) technology, and provides a user with a way to apply WBV technology to the upper body. The attachment may include a pair of uprights and a crossbar to which a variety of types of handles may be slidably attached. The attachment may have a base that both supports the uprights and connects the uprights with the equipment incorporating the WBV technology. Accordingly, the attachment transfers vibrations from the vibrating equipment to the handles that a user grips. Several exemplary WBV upper body exercises that the attachment facilitates include push-ups, pull-ups, and dips.
Systems, devices, components and methods for triggering or inducing resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of a patient
Various embodiments of systems, devices, components, and methods for providing external therapeutic vibration stimulation to a patient are disclosed and described. Therapeutic vibration stimulation is provided to at least one location on or adjacent to a patient's skin (such as through clothing or a layer disposed next to the patient's skin), and is configured to trigger or induce resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of the patient. Inducing such resonance can aid in training autonomic reflexes and improve their functioning.
