The apparatus includes a moxibustion container assembly for localized application of therapeutic herbal smoke originated from gas-producing combustible material, an air pump connectable to the moxibustion container assembly via an inlet tube to supply air to the moxibustion container assembly, a vacuum pump connectable to the moxibustion container assembly via an outlet tube to create a partial vacuum to draw air from the moxibustion container assembly and exhaust air thereafter, and an air purifier connected to the vacuum pump to remove the contaminants in the air exhausted from the vacuum pump.

A walker specialized for use on trails by pushing and walking, rather than riding on, with no drivetrain is provided. The walker can include a frame, two inline wheels, and a handlebar steering mechanism. The walker can further include a braking mechanism, an elbow rest, an electric motor, and racks and/or carriers for gear.

Disclosed herein are systems for applying pneumatic compression to a portion of a body comprising: a wrap comprising at least two air bladders; and a control unit. The control unit is configured to control the air pressure in the at least two air bladders. The control unit includes an electro-mechanically autonomous system configured to achieve synchronization between the wrap and one or more additional wraps.

A device and a method for identifying a motion pattern of a person that allow suitable feedback about an identified motion pattern to be produced in real time, to address the disadvantage that there is no provision for direct feedback to the person in the event of abnormal behavior being detected. This is achieved by virtue of a device for identifying a motion pattern of a person having at least one sensor for capturing motion parameters and at least one evaluation unit, which is couplable to the at least one sensor, for evaluating the motion parameters and for producing a motion pattern.

The present disclosure relates to a massage device capable of repositioning when a power failure occurs, comprising: an energy storage unit that stores electrical energy supplied from a power supply unit; an input unit that receives an input from a user when the electric energy supply is cut off from the power supply unit; a back angle actuator that receives, on the basis of the input unit, electric energy from the energy storage unit and moves a body massage unit such that the massage device is in an initial state; and a leg angle actuator that receives, on the basis of the input unit, electric energy from the energy storage unit and moves a leg massage unit such that the massage device is in an initial state.

A mirror therapy device includes a first positioning assembly, a second positioning assembly and a transmission assembly connecting the first and second positioning assemblies. The first and second positioning assemblies are arranged in opposition to each other in such a manner that both are able to reciprocate. The first positioning assembly is configured for positioning of a healthy limb of a patient, and the second positioning assembly is configured for positioning of an affected limb of the patient. The transmission assembly is configured for power transmission between the first and second positioning assemblies so that the second positioning assembly moves in synchronization with the first positioning assembly under the action of the transmission assembly. A mirror therapy system includes the mirror therapy device and a display device. The mirror therapy system enables the healthy limb to drive movement of the affected limb to allow the affected limb to repeat the same movements as the healthy limb, thus establishing neural connections for synchronous vision, motor perception and proprioception of the patient's healthy and affected sides and better stimulating nerve recovery of the patient.

A rehabilitation apparatus for deep myofascial release and stretching includes an elevated frame, at least one support arm, a height adjustable mechanism, at least one pressure releasing attachment, a first handle, and a second handle. The pressure releasing attachment is rotatably attached to the support arm. The support arm is operatively coupled to the elevated frame, wherein the support arm enables the pressure releasing attachment to rotate above the ground surface. The height adjustable mechanism is operatively coupled to the elevated frame, wherein the height adjustable mechanism changes the operational height of the pressure releasing attachment. The first handle and the second handle are oppositely positioned of each other about the pressure releasing attachment as the first handle is mounted to the elevated frame, and the second handle is mounted to the elevated frame.

A medical device for assessing and/or rehabilitating a human joint of an extremity includes a joint brace comprising a first support for coupling to an upper part of the extremity, a second support for coupling to a lower part of the extremity, and a rotatable joint connecting the first and second supports, and a mechanical device coupled to the first and second supports, the mechanical device configured for moving one or more of the first and second supports so as to rotate about the joint. In another alternative the medical device can include sensors located for making angle measurements between the first and second supports and for recording movement data and a computing device for receiving and storing the angle measurements and the movement data and for transmitting said data via a radio transmitter.

A control method for controlling an actuator (11) connected to a load (50) for handling, the method comprising the steps of: detecting an intention to handle the load (50); applying an increasing command to the actuator (11) until detecting a movement of the actuator (11); storing the value reached by the command when a movement of the actuator (11) is detected; using the stored value reached by the command to determine an estimate of the opposing force exerted by the load (50) for handling; and controlling the actuator by means of a force servocontrol relationship using the estimate of the opposing force exerted by the load (50) for handling in order to establish the commands to be applied to the actuator (11).

A cobot (1) arranged to perform the method.
