A wearable apparatus for assisting muscular strength includes: a main body mechanism extending in a vertical direction of a wearer's torso, and being fixed to a side of a wearer's torso under a wearer's shoulder; a fastening mechanism extending along an extension direction of a wearer's upper arm, and being disposed at and being in contact with a lower surface of the wearer's upper arm; a connecting mechanism having a first end coupled to the fastening mechanism and a second end movably coupled to the main body mechanism so as to be movable with respect to the main body mechanism; and a support mechanism movably coupled between the first end and the second end of the connecting mechanism to apply a support force to the connecting mechanism, and coupled to the main body mechanism and movable with respect thereto.

An apparatus for treating or preventing venous deficiency, thrombus development, orthostatic intolerance, lymphedema, and/or edema comprising a sleeve wearable on a limb of a user; an upper bracket and a lower bracket releasably couplable to the limb; an actuator coupled to one of the upper or lower brackets; a shaft coupled to the actuator and the other of the upper or lower brackets; a plurality of cams fixedly coupled to, and longitudinally spaced along, the shaft; and a respective plurality of flexible elements each coupled to one of the plurality of cams and to the sleeve. Rotational motion of the actuator about an axis of rotation causes the plurality of cams, via the respective plurality of flexible elements, to induce a peristaltic pressure wave in the limb.

A hand and forearm therapeutic massage system consisting of a frame that supports easily exchangeable lower fixed roller and an upper vertically movable roller. When a person inserts his or her hand and forearm between the two rollers, the upper roller provides precisely adjustable downward force thus providing a massaging action on the user's hand or forearm. A removable side panel provides easy and quick access for removal and insertion of rollers for a specific diagnosis. A cam mechanism and attached knob located in the upper portion of the frame can adjust the spring pressure exerted on the upper roller. The cam adjustment knob protrudes beyond the side wall of the hollow frame and includes an indicating arrow that points to indices affixed to the side of the hollow frame to allow a person to accurately know the pressure setting he or she is on.

Disclosed embodiments provide an improved stimulation device for sexual gratification. An enclosure includes a moveable shaft in a phallic shape, and a vibration surface located near the base of the shaft. The arrangement allows the shaft to be inserted in the vagina of a user while the vibration surface is in contact with the clitoral region of the user. In embodiments, the enclosure comprises two concave sides and a convex opposing surface. The concave side surfaces are well suited to accommodate the legs of a user. The convex opposing surface enables a rocker mode of operation in which the user places the device on a floor surface such that the convex opposing surface is on the floor, and then straddles the device, enabling a rocking motion during stimulation, which can create an enhanced user experience.

An enclosure includes a moveable shaft in a phallic shape, and a vibration surface located near the base of the shaft. The arrangement allows the shaft to be inserted in the vagina of a user while the vibration surface is in contact with the clitoral region of the user. In use, the shaft thrusts back and forth in the vagina. In some embodiments, the enclosure comprises two concave sides and a convex opposing surface. The concave side surfaces are well suited to accommodate the legs of a user. The convex opposing surface enables a rocker mode of operation in which the user places the device on a floor surface such that the convex opposing surface is on the floor, and then straddles the device, enabling a rocking motion during stimulation, which can create an enhanced user experience.

A medical traction system provides an elongate track having a slide with a handle so that tensioning of the strap can be performed directly on the slide with improved tension sensitivity. The slide provides a cam mechanism with low back-travel automatically locking the slide when tension is released permitting one-handed operation.

The present invention is directed to an autonomous exoskeleton device that includes one or more actuators, one or more controllers, one or more sensors with one or more unidirectional transmissions. The present invention provides a mechanical joint in parallel with a biological joint. The exoskeleton device preferably includes and electric motor and winch, chain, belt, cam transmission or other mechanism for providing unidirectional force to assist rotation about the biologic joint. Moreover, a controller, a motor angle sensor, joint angle sensor and/or force sensor may be used for additional control and monitoring of the device. The motor may be any type of motor, but is preferably brushless in configuration where its diameter is larger than its length to provide a compact and lightweight exoskeleton device.

Exemplary embodiments of massaging devices are disclosed herein. One exemplary embodiment includes a piston having a longitudinal axis, a massaging head connected to the piston, a motor located on a first side of the longitudinal axis and a handle located on a second side of the longitudinal axis. A drive mechanism for moving the piston and massage head is also included.

A treatment device includes a housing having a longitudinal axis extending between a proximal end and a distal end, a motor, a drive shaft operatively coupled to the motor, a compression spring at least partially disposed about the drive shaft, a helical cam disposed adjacent the compression spring, the helical cam having at least one discontinuity, a hammer coupled to the helical cam and moveable therewith, and a tip disposed adjacent the distal end.
