THERAPEUTIC BRA STRUCTURE
20190364980 · 2019-12-05 ·

A therapeutic bra structure includes a bra body having a bra layered member and a side bra layered member on both sides of the bra layered member separately, a fastener assembly or adhesive assembly combined with a distal edge of the side bra layered member and an elastic adjusting assembly having two elastic adjusting layers. Each elastic adjusting layer has an elastic and permeable layered member, and the two elastic adjusting layers are fixed to an inner side of the bra layered member, and an end adhesive assembly is provided at an outer edge of the elastic adjusting layers for the purpose of combining and positioning. This structure allows users to adjust the elasticity and has the effects of healing the wound stably, facilitating the use and installation of a drainage tube or an artificial blood vessel, and ensuring the safety of wearing bra after breast surgery.

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.

Anchoring system including a fastener and a clasp. The fastener includes a substantially planar base, a first clasp-engaging member protruding from a portion of the base and having an outwardly-extending flange, the fastener further including an adhesive suitable to secure the base directly to the skin of a wearer. The clasp includes a first end configured to engage and rotate about the first clasp-engaging member and a second end configured to engage a cable of a prosthetic or orthotic device, the adhesive having a sufficient strength to support manual operation of the prosthetic or orthotic device.

ARM PROSTHETIC DEVICE

A prosthetic arm apparatus comprising a plurality of segments that provide a user of the prosthetic arm apparatus with substantially the same movement capability and function as a human arm. The segments are connectable to one another and connectable to a harness mount that may be adorned by the user. Each segment of the plurality of segments provides a portion of the movement capability, enabling the plurality of connected segments connected to the harness mount to provide substantially the same movement capability as that lacking in the user.

Adjustable socket system

An adjustable prosthetic socket includes proximal and distal ends and an axis extending between the proximal and distal ends. A distal base is adapted to support a distal portion of a residual limb and is located at the distal end of the socket. First and second spines extend upward from the distal base that define at least part of a circumference of the socket about the axis. A proximal support is connected to the second spine and arranged to distribute pressure from the second spine over a portion of the residual limb. A tensioning system is operatively connected to the first and second spines and arranged to selectively adjust the circumference of the socket. The tensioning system includes a dial tensioner connected to the first spine.

Arm prosthetic device

A system for powering a prosthetic arm is disclosed. The system includes at least one internal battery located in the prosthetic arm, at least one external battery connected to the prosthetic arm, and a master controller configured to connect either the at least one internal battery or the at least one external battery to a power bus to power the prosthetic arm.

An adjustable prosthesis system for a residual limb includes: an adjustable outer shell having a bottom, an adjustable inner volume, and an adjustable inner shape; at least one closure component attached to the outer shell and adapted to adjust the width of the inner volume and/or inner shape; an inner liner adapted to receive the residual limb and to be inserted in the inner volume; and an adjustable connector having a proximal end adjustably connected to a distal end of the outer shell and adapted to provide concurrently for a plurality of directional adjustments and/or angular adjustments of a position of the distal end of the outer shell relative to the proximal end of the connector, a distal end of the connector adapted to connect to a prosthetic device, wherein adjustments of the width(s) and the connector provide for a custom-like fit of the prosthesis on the residual limb.

Adaptive arm support systems and methods for use
10383785 · 2019-08-20 · ·

A system is provided for supporting an arm of a user that includes a harness configured to be worn by the user, and an arm support coupled to the harness and including an arm rest to support an arm of the user. The arm support is configured to accommodate and follow movement of the arm without substantially interfering in such movement. The arm support may at least partially offset a gravitational force acting on the arm as the user moves and the arm support follows the movement of the user's arm. For example, the arm support may transfer at least a portion of the weight of the user's arm to the torso or other region of the user's body and/or may apply an opposing force to at least partially offset the gravitational force acting on the arm.
