An exercise apparatus comprises a platform that is configured to support a user thereon. The apparatus also comprises at least first and second oscillation mechanisms that are arranged to cause movement of the platform. The first oscillation mechanism is arranged to impart drive to the platform to oscillate in a first frequency range and at a first amplitude. The second oscillation mechanism is arranged to impart drive to the platform to oscillate in a second frequency range and at a second amplitude. The first amplitude can be greater than the second amplitude. Further, each of the first and second oscillation mechanisms can be arranged to generally impart drive to the platform in substantially the same direction. The first and second mechanisms may operate through a drive element that combines drive imparted from the first and second oscillation mechanisms to cause the movement of the platform.

Massage Mechanism and Its Massager

A massage mechanism and its massager. The massage mechanism includes a base, motor, drive assembly, first drive shaft, first bearing, first massage drive assembly, first massage head assembly, inter-shaft drive assembly, second transmission shaft, second bearing, second massage drive assembly and second massage head. There is also provided a massager including the foregoing massage mechanism. The mechanism could optimize those unstable and noisy features for an ideal massage experience, and solve the problem that multiple massage actions cannot be driven by a single motor.

A present invention provides a joint power control device. A joint interlock displacement part (52) of a power transmission movable mechanism (53), which is comprising of a moving pulley (51) and the like, is connected to a joint mechanism (5) disposed between a first member (2) and a second member (3). A flexible lengthy member (32), which is one of two flexible lengthy members (32, 32) extending from the power transmission movable mechanism (53), is connected to a control mechanism (54) that controls the movement of the flexible lengthy member (32). Further, an elastic structure (31) is engaged with the other flexible lengthy member (32).

MOTION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS

A motion assistance apparatus including a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of a user, a distal support configured to support a distal part of the user, a hollow actuator on the proximal support, a reducer inserted in the hollow actuator such that an input end of the reducer is connected to an output end of the hollow actuator, and a driving frame configured to connect an output end of the reducer to the distal support is disclosed.

20190015284 · 2019-01-17 ·

An orthosis includes a first portion and a second portion configured to attach on opposite sides of a joint. An actuator is configured to apply a force between the first and second portions. The actuator includes a first spool and a second spool rotatably mounted to the first portion. An output pulley is mounted to the second portion. A belt has a first end wrapped around the first spool, a second end wrapped around the second spool, and a mid-portion wrapped around the output pulley. The actuator is configured to rotate the first and second spools. The rotation of the first spool pulls the belt a given length, and the rotation of the second spool feeds the belt less than the given length, so as to pull the output pulley towards the first portion to pull the second portion towards the first portion.

LIMB STRETCHING DEVICE

Various implementations include a device for assisting with and controlling stretching of a limb of a patient. The device includes a limb support for receiving the limb, a base, and a coupling that rotatably couples the limb support and the base. The coupling allows the limb support to rotate through various axes of rotation individually, depending on the range of motion expected for the limb. For example, for a device designed for the foot, the coupling allows a foot support to rotate about a first axis, a second axis, and a third axis, wherein the three axes are orthogonal to each other. In other implementations, the device may be designed for other portions of limbs, such as the hand, the forearm, the upper arm, the lower leg, and the upper leg.

Light-emitting diode and massage device for delivering focused light for vaginal rejuvenation

A rejuvenation and massage device is provided for treating mucosa tissue, such as vaginal tissue, affected by Vaginal Relaxation Syndrome (VRS) or other conditions, through vibration, thermal loading, and light emittance for a duration of time. In one embodiment, the device is an insertable device that includes Low-Level Laser Light (LLLT) therapy to treat the vaginal tissue. The light emittance by one or more light emitters is in a range sufficient to provide therapeutic effects through light radiation. To enhance the therapeutic effects of light radiation provided by the device, the device is configured to provide increased energy density into target tissue of vaginal muscles though a light configuration component (e.g., a focusing component, such as a concave lens assembly, a convex assembly, a pre-lensed light emitter or other focusing optical mechanism) associated with the light emitter that concentrates the light emitted from the light emitter.

MASSAGE MACHINE

In the case of adopting a massage mechanism which is capable of mechanically treating a treatment region ranging from buttocks to thighs, it is ensured to prevent a user from feeling a discomfort feeling at a time of seating on a seat. A massage machine includes a seat massage mechanism which is provided inside a seat and performs a massage of a treatment region ranging from buttocks to thighs (treatment region including at least buttocks) of a user seating on the seat, and in this massage machine, a guide is arranged along a front and rear direction inside the seat allowing the seat massage mechanism to be movable in the front and rear direction.

Electromagnetic brake for powered mobility assistance device

An electromagnetic brake assembly includes a solenoid coil; a fixed ferrous brake stator; a ferrous armature having a braking face, wherein the armature is moveable in a translation direction relative to the brake stator between a disengaged position and an engaged position; and a rotating member including a mating surface and that rotates relative to the armature when the armature is in the disengaged position. When the solenoid coil is energized, the armature translationally moves from the disengaged position to the engaged position, and in the engaged position the braking face of the armature interacts with the mating surface of the rotating member to apply a braking force to the rotating member. The braking face and the mating surface may form a conical interface, and the conical interface further may include a friction O-ring positioned within a slot that permits the O-ring to roll along the braking interface when the armature moves between the disengaged position and the engaged position.

Percussive therapy device with electrically connected attachment
