The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for applying pressure to a newborn baby. The apparatus defines a cavity for holding the newborn baby therein, and a plurality of expandable conduits that each substantially surround the cavity, where each conduit is independently expandable: (1) on transfer of fluid from a fluid source into the conduit; (2) on application of an electric potential from an electric potential source to the conduit; or (3) a combination thereof, to apply pressure along at least a portion of the length of the newborn baby held in the cavity. The present disclosure also discusses methods of applying pressure to a newborn baby in a pressure applying apparatus, and systems for applying pressure to a newborn baby.

Therapeutic cushions having a plurality of inflatable columnar cells, pumping mechanism, and a manifold or valve system for moving a fluid between the pumping mechanism and the inflatable columnar cells. The inflatable columnar cells are constructed such that inflation and deflation of the cells cause vertical expansion/contraction of the cells with limited lateral expansion/contraction. The manifold or the valve system connect the pumping mechanism with the inflatable columnar cells such that a plurality of zones are created. A valve assembly can include a plurality of valves and is adjustable among at least three valve configurations to vary fluid connections to the inflatable columnar cells to produce rearwardly advancing waves. A venting manifold may vent air from the cells between the cushions.

A rehabilitation training apparatus and a rehabilitation training system are disclosed. The rehabilitation training apparatus includes a powertrain, a pneumatic flexible actuator and a receiving portion. The powertrain is coupled to the pneumatic flexible actuator and configured to rotate upon drive of the pneumatic flexible actuator. The receiving portion is coupled to the powertrain and configured to receive a training portion and be interlocked with rotation of the powertrain.

The present patent document relates to automatic equipment for performing orthopedic and physiotherapeutic procedures for passive motion of the knee joint (patellofemoral and tibiofemoral), incorporating three motion units: knee flexion and extension motion unit; internal and external rotation motion unit of the knee; and a multidirectional patellar mobilization unit (lower-upper and medial-lateral), an external support for multidirectional patellar mobilizer and a control unit. The flexion and extension motion unit is comprised of a mechanical and electronic structure on which the leg rests during use thereof and has at least two supports for supporting the leg located in the back region of the thigh and in the back region of the leg (calf); the internal and external rotation motion unit of the knee is comprised of a structure with a support for the leg and a support for the foot region (sole region) coupled to a knee flexion and extension motion unit; and the multidirectional patellar mobilization unit is comprised of a receptacle on which a retainer and an actuating element are disposed.

The present disclosure relates to an assisted exoskeleton rehabilitation device, comprising: a back structure comprising a back crossbeam, a back supporting panel with an adjustable length, and a shoulder pneumatic muscle element mounted on the back supporting panel; an arm structure; a shoulder joint assembly, by which the arm structure is connected to an upper end of the back structure; and a waist structure. An upper end of the back supporting panel is fixedly connected to the back crossbeam, and a lower end thereof is fixedly connected to the waist structure. The shoulder joint assembly comprises a curved shoulder joint connecting panel, a shoulder traction wheel, a shoulder traction line, a first hinge mechanism and a second hinge mechanism. One end of the shoulder joint connecting panel is connected to the upper end of the arm structure by the first hinge mechanism to form a bend-stretch revolute pair of the shoulder joint, and the other end of the shoulder joint connecting panel is connected to the back crossbeam by the second hinge mechanism to form an abduction-adduction revolute pair and a medial rotation-lateral rotation revolute pair of the shoulder joint assembly, and the shoulder traction wheel is fixed to the upper end of the arm structure. The shoulder traction line is connected at one end to the shoulder traction wheel, and connected to the shoulder pneumatic muscle element at the other end.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for applying pressure to a newborn baby. The apparatus defines a cavity for holding the newborn baby therein, and a plurality of expandable conduits that each substantially surround the cavity, where each conduit is independently expandable: (1) on transfer of fluid from a fluid source into the conduit; (2) on application of an electric potential from an electric potential source to the conduit; or (3) a combination thereof, to apply pressure along at least a portion of the length of the newborn baby held in the cavity.. The present disclosure also discusses methods of applying pressure to a newborn baby in a pressure applying apparatus, and systems for applying pressure to a newborn baby.

An air massager includes an air flow generator having an output, a nozzle in fluid communication with the output, and a pulsed air generator located between the output and the nozzle. Operation of the pulsed air generator alternately allows and restricts air flow from the output to the nozzle. A method of operating the massager is also provided.

An automatic massage portable massage table, and belongs to the technical field of massage apparatuses. The automatic massage portable massage table includes a rigid planner surface, a cushioned pad, an upholstery cover, table legs, long leg supports, short leg supports, a cable system, a headrest cradle, a headrest cushion, and a plurality of airbags. According to the automatic massage portable massage table of the present disclosure, a user can command a circuit board to supply power to an air pump and a plurality of air valves through buttons of a controller. After being powered on, the air pump supplies air to the air valves. Meanwhile, the circuit board controls, according to a pre-stored program, the air valves to achieve air supply and air release, thus controlling the airbags to be inflated and deflated.

The present disclosure relates to an airbag type massage table, and belongs to the technical field of massage apparatuses, including a rigid planner surface, a table top, an upholstery cover, a headrest cushion, and a plurality of airbags. A user can lay in supine or prone position on the table top of the airbag type massage table of the present disclosure. A circuit board is instructed by means of buttons of a controller. The circuit board supplies power to an air pump Air pumps supply air to air valves. Meanwhile, the circuit board controls the opening, closing and air release of the air valves, thus controlling the airbags to be inflated, held and deflated.
