FLOTATION SYSTEM
A flotation system includes a crotch support and a vest. The crotch support includes a central body, a first pad, a second pad, and first and second elastic bands extending from the first pad. The vest includes a lower torso support and an upper torso stabilization system. The lower torso support can include a flexible body, and first and second flanks extending from the flexible body. The stabilization system can include first and second arms, each having a proximal end extending from the lower torso support, and a distal end. An extension may extend from each distal end to engage the first or second flank. Each of the central body, pads, flexible body, and arms can include a buoyant body. The elastic bands can wrap around the lower torso support such that a compressive force is applied along a circumference defined by a torso of a user.
Harness with single-pull adjustment for sports chest protector
A chest protector includes a protective vest portion and a harness portion to hold the vest portion on a user. The harness portion includes a first side strap and a second side strap, each of the first and second side straps being connected to the vest portion on opposing sides of the vest portion; a first slide connected to the first side strap; a second slide connected to the second side strap; a central strap passing through the first slide and the second slide and forming a loop connecting the first and second slides; a vertical strap connected to the central strap; and a strap adjuster connecting the vest portion and the vertical strap. The vertical strap passes through the strap adjuster and a free end of the vertical strap can be pulled to tighten the harness portion around a user. The vertical strap may be the only adjustable strap.
Mobility-Assistive Garment
A garment includes an interior surface, a strap sheath carried by the interior surface and establishing a strap tunnel, a strap movably extending through the strap sheath and being slidable in the strap tunnel relative to the strap sheath. Lower and upper body versions of the garment are also disclosed, as is a method of repositioning an appendage of a wearer of a garment.
Baby vest neck support device
A baby vest neck support device is disclosed herein. The baby vest neck support device includes a vest portion, the vest portion defining a head opening for accommodating a head of a baby, arm openings for accommodating arms of the baby, and a torso opening for accommodating a torso of the baby, and the vest portion including one or more straps for securing the vest portion to the baby; and a head and neck support portion coupled to the vest portion, the head and neck support portion including an inner support layer configured to be partially received within a pocket of the vest portion, and the head and neck support portion further including an outer padded layer disposed over an upper head section of the inner support layer.
Vertical lift harness and turnout gear
A safety harness for vertically lifting of a user is provided. The safety harness includes an upper body harness and a lower body harness which may be positioned on liners within a coat and pants of the user, respectively. The upper body harness and lower body harness attach together to function as a Class III harness enabling lifting of a user in a vertical orientation by virtue of the harness geometry. The lower body harness alone serves as a Class II harness and the upper body harness alone serves as a drag line. The harness is particularly suited to be integrated with firefighting turnout gear for ready donning with the turnout gear.
MOBILITY DEVICE
A garment attachable to an exercise or therapeutic apparatus that is capable of elevating the user slightly above the ground, reducing potential for injury and strain by shifting the user's weight to the frame of the apparatus. The garment is incorporated into the apparatus by comprising panels under the buttocks and around the thighs, providing balance and lifting the user comfortably in conjunction with the frame. A low-friction plate is positioned under the user's feet so that the user can ambulate freely while held in place by the frame.
SAFETY GARMENT SYSTEM
A safety garment system including a garment having an interior surface, an exterior surface, a harness, a first-handle, and a second-handle. The harness is configured on the interior surface of the garment. The first-handle and the second-handle are configured on the exterior surface and are positioned on opposing sides at a shoulder region of the garment. The garment is configured to be used to safely drag a victim to safety in an emergency using the harness, the first-handle, and the second-handle.
Harness for coupling to an upper arm prosthesis, and systems and methods of making and using same
A prosthesis system can comprise an upper arm prosthesis comprising a socket, the upper arm prosthesis being positioned on a first side of the prosthesis system proximate a residual limb of a user. A harness that can be coupled to the socket of the upper arm prosthesis. The harness can comprise a front portion that is configured to extend across the chest of the user and receive at least a portion of the breasts of the user therein and a back portion that is configured to extend across the back of the user and couple to opposed lateral sides of the front portion. A first end of a support strap can couple to the socket of the prosthesis at a first anchor point, and a second end can couple to the back portion of the harness on a second side of the prosthesis system opposite the first side.
Outerwear garment with semi-removable front panels
This outerwear garment makes traveling while clothed in outerwear and restrained in a car seat restraint device safer for children and adults. By allowing the partial removal and repositioning of the front of the garment, proper security of car seat restraints can be achieved while keeping the wearer warm, and without necessitating full removal of the garment.
Exercise garment configured to be worn by an infant
Examples of the present disclosure are related to systems and methods for an exercise garment configured to be worn by an infant. Specifically, embodiments are related to a fitness routine incorporating a safety harness to be worn by an infant.
