Compression device
11559460 · 2023-01-24 ·

A compression device has a main body and a wrap. The main body has an air pump and a valve assembly. The valve assembly has a manifold, multiple first valves, and multiple air connectors. The manifold connects the air pump and the first valves. The air connectors are connected to the first valves respectively. The wrap is used for wrapping a human limb and has an air bag. The air bag has multiple pockets. The pockets are isolated from each other and connected to the air connectors respectively. Thus, each pocket can compress a part of the human limb independently. With the independent pockets, the compression device may compress a specified part of the human limb rather than the whole wrapped human limb. Moreover, with the pockets independently compressing and relaxing, the wrapped human limb may experience a massage, which helps the wrapped human limb to relax and recover.

Walker attachment for wheelchairs

A walker adapted for attachment to a wheelchair may be used to assist a user with walking while retaining the wheelchair in close proximity behind the user for use when the user needs to sit. The walker may be removably attached to the frame of the wheelchair for easy exchange of use from one wheelchair to another. A pivotable, removably attachable gate between two lateral frame members may allow for the walker to be manipulated from a walking position to a stored position. The gate may include an extendable width to allow for use with wheelchairs of different widths. A frame of the walker may be extendably attached to the wheelchair, thereby allowing the user to extend and retract the walker between the walking position and the stored position.

Bench assembly for stretching the quadriceps femoris and/or hip flexors muscles
11690772 · 2023-07-04 ·

A bench assembly that stretches and develops the quadriceps femoris and/or hip flexors muscle groups of a client with the help of a therapist or trainer. The bench assembly has a basal subassembly with a front member that faces the therapist. Extending rearwardly from the front member is a first side member. A rear member extends laterally from the first side member. Each of the front and rear members have an upwardly oriented column that extends from a bottom rail of the associated member. The columns underlie a client support pad on which the client may lie recumbent and face upwardly with his/her legs positioned towards the front member before a trainer applies a stretching regimen to the legs and/or hips.

ASSISTIVE MOBILITY DEVICE
20220395419 · 2022-12-15 ·

An assistive mobility device includes a connecting assembly disposed between two frames of a frame assembly, first wheels, second wheels, a positioning assembly disposed between the frames and the connecting assembly, and a stop assembly disposed on the frame assembly. By engaging at least one locking unit and at least one engagement unit of the positioning assembly together, support rods of the connecting assembly are stably unfolded for further use. When the locking unit leaves the engagement unit, the support rods can be folded up, and respective frame bodies of the frames pivotally connected to respective support bodies thereof can also be collapsed by lying down, thereby reducing the bulk of the folded mobility device. The stop assembly serves to prevent random rotations of the second wheels while folding and unfolding the mobility device. Therefore, the mobility device is more convenient and useful to use.

WALKING SUPPORT SYSTEM
20220370282 · 2022-11-24 ·

When a frontmost white line of a crosswalk cannot be detected due to an obstacle existing on the crosswalk, an edge position of the obstacle closer to a pedestrian in an image acquired by a camera is set as the frontmost white line of the crosswalk. As a result, a vibration generation device vibrates in a pattern that urges the pedestrian to stop at the time when the pedestrian reaches a position before the edge position of the obstacle closer to the pedestrian, so that a stop notification for walking can be appropriately performed to the pedestrian even when the obstacle exists on the crosswalk.
