A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

A method for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes supplying an inflation gas at an operative pressure to an inflation actuated soft gripper device to change form from an undeployed state to a deployed grip state that accommodates and grips a human torso. The inflation actuated soft gripper device includes a first inflatable gripper arm having a first distal end and a second inflatable gripper arm having a second distal end. The first distal end and the second distal end approach one another from the undeployed state to the deployed grip state. The first and second distal ends are spaced apart from one another further in the undeployed state than in the deployed grip state. An actuator power and a CPR control signal are delivered to a CPR pressure application device to cyclically extend and retract a pressure applicator along an axis in alignment with a sternum of the human torso.

An improvement to portable cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), includes a first module hub housing, an inflation actuated soft gripper configured to receive an inflation gas in response, to change form to a deployed grip state that accommodates and grips a human torso. Improvements include the inflatable gripper not requiring lifting the patient. Improvements also include modularity for in-the-field reconfigurability, in which a second module hub housing attaches to the first module hub housing, carrying a CPR pressure applicator configured to receive an actuator power and control signal causing, concurrent with the deployed grip state, cyclic extension and retraction of a pressure applicator along an axis aligned with a sternum of the human torso.

Apparatus for supporting a person in a prone position comprises a support stand and a platform movably mounted to the support stand by a linkage, in which the platform is movable on the linkage between a first position and a second position, in which the platform comprises an upper portion in a first plane and a lower portion comprising a concavity relative to the first plane.

A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

Controlling movement of an end effector coupled to a robotic arm includes receiving an indication of a massage technique to be performed. It further includes determining a surface in a plurality of surfaces of the end effector to interact with a massage recipient when performing the massage technique. It further includes determining an operating space for the end effector in performing the massage technique based at least in part on the determined surface of the end effector. It further includes controlling the movement of the end effector to operate within the determined operating space.

A reduced friction massage and exercise device, which includes a base frame and at least one anchoring arrangement for anchoring a first body part of a user. A reduced friction surface is mounted onto the base frame, and includes a plurality of ball transfer units arranged such that adjacent ball transfer units engage one another. The device further includes at least one cable column including a weight stack. Each of the motion transfer balls is adapted for omnidirectional rotation relative to a corresponding housing element and independently of other the motion transfer balls. The reduced friction surface is adapted to have a second body part of the user placed thereon during performing of a physical activity applying force to the second body part, while reducing friction between the second body part and the surface.

A weight plate loadable body tempering device includes and outer housing, a shaft, and a divider. The outer housing has a left opening and a right opening separated by a middle. The shaft extends through a central axis of the outer housing from approximately a distal end of the left opening to approximately a distal end of the right opening. The divider is positioned inside the outer housing at the middle. The divider positions the shaft on the central axis of the outer housing and separates the left opening from the right opening thereby creating a left weight chamber and a right weight chamber.

Proposed are a body care motion tracking device and a body care management method using the same. More specifically, proposed are a body care motion tracking device and a body care management method using the same, which are capable of: tracking body care, which is beauty management performed by manual-manipulation, through a tracking device and storing the body care having been tracked as data; and visualizing stored data and displaying the data on a display device, thereby performing user-customized manual-manipulation management on the basis of the same.

A liver cancer metastasis therapeutic device, consisting of a base plate, a prone support, an abdominal medicine massager, a chain wheel, a rotating wheel and a handheld massager, and being used in a treatment for restoring functions of a whole body; and the therapeutic device is focused on restoring the functions of the whole human body and complementarily performs chemoradiotherapy and surgery for killing cancer cells to treat causes of death, thus significantly reducing a death rate of patients due to metastasis of liver cancers and digestive organ cancers.
