Automatic massaging apparatus
An automatic massage apparatus may include a main body, a massaging unit, at least two first belts and at least two second belts. The main body has a guiding rail that is hollow to provide a space for a driving unit of the massaging unit, and a long groove is formed on both sides of the guiding rail. The massaging unit has a driving unit that has a driving shaft extending towards both sides of the driving unit. Both ends of the driving shaft have a plurality of wheels disposed against the rail of the main body, and these wheels are appropriately spaced. Both sides of the massaging unit have at least one compartment and a second compartment. One end of the first belt is secured on the first end of the positioning unit, and the other end is wrapping the driving shaft in the first compartment.
EYE MASSAGER
An eye massager includes an eyeshade and a head band connected with the eyeshade. The eyeshade is provided with two massage boards, and the two massage boards are arranged symmetrically and move synchronously. The eyeshade includes an eyeshade casing, the two massage boards are located on an outer wall of an inner side of the eyeshade casing, and the eyeshade casing is provided therein with a driving assembly configured to drive the two massage boards. The driving assembly includes a motor, a gear assembly driven by the motor, a transmission shaft driven via the gear assembly, and two eccenter assemblies arranged at two ends of the transmission shaft respectively. The two massage boards are respectively fixed on the two eccenter assemblies, and are enabled to swing when being driven by the eccenter assemblies.
Finger motion rail, support therefor and therapy device comprising same and operating method
A finger motion rail is provided for a therapy device for carrying out passive and/or actively-assisted motion of the fingers and thumb of the hand. The therapy device has an upper shell, to which a kinematic motion mechanism of the finger motion rail for each selected finger is connected, each mechanism has a motion drive that is in control engagement with a control system. The kinematic motion mechanism of the finger motion rail, which mechanism has a carriage that moves in a rail provided around the metacarpophalangeal joint and a pivoting lever, is located at the side of each finger for the passive and/or actively-assisted motion of the selected fingers. This allows an individual finger motion rail with the kinematic motion mechanism to be provided for each selected finger, the rail being located at the side of each finger, thus permitting each selected finger to bend and/or stretch without constraint.
Joint support unit and walking support apparatus
To provide a joint support unit, etc. capable of being worn on both left and right joints. A joint support unit 20 includes a first link 21 worn on one end side of a knee joint, a second link 22 worn on the other end side of the knee joint, and a driving unit 30 configured to cause the first link 21 and the second link 22 to perform rotational movement, or to relatively perform rotational movement while moving a rotation center and to perform sliding movement.
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.
SELF-TENSIONING AND RELEASABLE GRIPPING GLOVES
A releasable gripping glove is provided having one or more flexible artificial tendons extending through a finger section of a glove body. The flexible artificial tendon is configured to maintain a structurally articulated configuration when the finger section is articulated. Each tendon includes locking teeth that engages with a releasable locking tab extending form a locking mechanism configured to engage the locking teeth when the finger section is articulated. A release mechanism is provided to engage and disengage the locking mechanism. A thumb release rod is positioned within a thumb portion and connected to the release mechanism. The articulating of the finger section releasably locks the flexible artificial tendon in the articulated position, which is releasable through relaxing of the thumb portion.
Walking Frame With Wheels
Walking frame (10) with wheels (12) comprising a support frame (11) and two gripping elements (13) associated with the support frame (11) that can be gripped by a user.
WEARABLE ACTIVE ROBOT FOR BODY JOINTS IN SERIES
The present concerns a wearable underactuated active robot with a couple of robotic joint adapted to correspond with to a couple of body joints in line on a limb of an user.
Bodycare device
A skincare device such as a facial skincare device performs a skincare procedure on a subject, in a series of zones of the skin of the subject, with each zone receiving a different skincare routine. The device has an interchangeable treatment head to perform the skincare procedure. A controller controls the treatment head to perform the skincare procedure. A sensor detects an individual treatment head when fitted to the device, by detecting and reading data from a tag on the treatment head, which automatically selects the sequence of skincare routines to be performed by the device on the zones of the skin of the subject.
Percussive massage device and method of use
A percussive massage device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, and a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. The housing includes first, second and third handle portions that cooperate to define a handle opening, wherein the first handle portion defines a first axis, the second handle portion defines a second axis and the third handle portion defines a third axis, and wherein the first, second and third axes cooperate to form a triangle.
