A hand exoskeleton includes at least one mechanical finger and a mechanical palm; and the mechanical finger includes a finger section, a rod assembly and a motor, the finger section includes a first finger section and a second finger section, and the rod assembly includes a first rod assembly and a second rod assembly. The motor capable of controlling the hand exoskeleton is arranged in the hand exoskeleton, and motion constraint on the finger section is realized by constraining a rod through the motor in the movement process of the hand exoskeleton, so that motion limitation on the hand exoskeleton is realized.

The Conformal Vest Ventilator (CVV) is a vest-like mechanism to cause or aid breathing in humans The Conformal Vest Ventilator consists of a series of expanding and contracting tubes that fit around the torso, similar to clothing, and which change shape in a manner that expands the thoracic cavity to create negative pressure ventilation in the lungs, similar to the natural ventilation created by the diaphragm muscle and the expanding rib cage. The CVV creates a breathing support system that is less intrusive than existing methods, and can improve the lives of people with COPD or paralyzed diaphragm muscles and is useful in other medical conditions, including sleep apnea, critical care, spinal cord injuries, and athletic training or physical therapy when the primary goal is to increase lung capacity.

Disclosed embodiments provide an improved stimulation device. Embodiments of the improved stimulation device include a cup and a driver. The cup has a cavity surrounded by a rim. In use, a user positions the rim such that an opening to the cavity is over an area of a user's body to be stimulated (for example, the clitoris). A sealed-, or substantially-sealed, main chamber is formed by the cavity walls and the user's body (skin surrounding the clitoris). A pressure field is generated in the main chamber. The device includes a voice coil motor that drives a linear actuator. This enables the volume of the cavity, and changes in volume, to be electronically controlled. The change in total volume causes a change in pressure experienced by the user. This allows the user to adjust the pressure based on comfort and pleasure as per user preferences.

A mobility assistance apparatus includes first and second frames positioned on left and right sides of a user; a hinge arm mechanism coupled to the first and second frames; and a pivotable securing unit or a walking seat coupled to the frames to transfer at least a portion of the user's body weight from the legs and to transfer weight through the user's hip or pelvis to the first and second frame enabling the user to stand or work for an extended period without requiring the user's arms to hold the frame; a wheel coupled to the first and second frames; a brake coupled to the wheel to provide friction to the wheel when actuated; and a tensioner coupled to the brake to adjust cable tension during wheel braking.

Disclosed embodiments provide a personal massager device. The massager device includes a stimulator, which is G-spot stimulator, clitoral stimulator, or a prostate stimulator. The stimulator includes an enclosure having an opening. A post is disposed within the enclosure. The post has a groove formed in the side at a non-orthogonal angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the post. A ball is disposed within the groove. The ball protrudes outside the opening of the enclosure. The post is rotated in a continuous direction by the motor, and as it does so, the ball traverses a path. A sheath is disposed tightly over the enclosure. The ball presses the sheath against the G-spot or prostate of the user, providing stimulation.

An apparatus for giving automated manipulation of soft tissue parts of a person's body. The apparatus includes at least one manipulating device for manipulating the soft tissue parts, and at least one frame on which the manipulating device is mounted. The frame is configured such that the manipulation device is movable in use along the person's body when the person is lying on a treatment table. The manipulation device comprises a plurality of pistons for performing the manipulation of the soft tissue parts.

A system for providing treatment adapted to clear lung airways, the system including at least one pressure applicator adapted, when activated, to apply pressure at at least one specific location on a torso of a patient, and, when deactivated, to release the pressure, a sensor for sensing a signal associated with the patient, and, a controller, in communication with the sensor, adapted to analyze the signal and to control activation and deactivation of the at least one pressure applicator based, at least in part, on analyzing the signal. Related apparatus and methods are also described.

A chest compression device includes a piston to apply compression to the sternum and incorporates leaf springs simultaneously driven by the piston to apply lateral compression to the thorax during chest compressions. A motor in the chest compression device provides motive power to cyclically extend and contract the piston to provide therapeutic chest compressions. One end of each leaf spring is operably connected to the piston and the other end of each leaf spring is secured to the backboard/base or to a support leg of the chest compression device such that during extension of the piston, each leaf spring is compressed against the device base or leg which causes the springs to flex and provide lateral compression of the patient's thorax in addition to the sternal compression of the piston.

An apparatus for manipulating (in one alternative correcting) the cervical curvature of a user, the apparatus having a top, a bottom, a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side, wherein: proximate the top, a thoracic section for receiving the upper back region of a user, preferably for receiving the thoracic region of the user; proximate the top, a cervical section for receiving the cervical curve region of the user; the cervical section is movable with a traction path in at least one of the following planes vertical, horizontal and combinations thereof; in one alternative, the cervical section is movable in an arc-like motion along the vertical plane.

A massaging apparatus system with a body having at least one shoulder strap, and a back panel, both with first inner layer, a second inner layer, a first outer layer and a second outer layer; an opening on the body and an opening fastener; at least one massage head; a control circuit with at least one cable connected to the massage heads, a substantially closed storage space between the first inner layer and the second inner layer. The first outer layer communicates with the user when worn. The first inner layer having a small storage space fixed firmly on the first inner layer and configured to receive the at least one massage head and having a second opening for the at least one massage head and cable to go through.
