A human interface device is configured to be coupled to a trunk of a person and comprises a frame, a fabric coupled to said frame configurable to be under tensile forces, and a belt configured to be coupled to two side edges of said frame wherein when said belt is worn by said person, an area of said fabric will be pushed against the person's lower back conforming to the shape of the lower back of said person. In operation when said human interface device is worn by said person, the weight of any load coupled to or supported by said frame will be partially supported by the friction force between the area of said fabric which is pushed against the person's lower back, and the person's lower back allowing said person to carry said load.

Exosuit systems and methods according to various embodiments are described herein. The exosuit system can be a suit that is worn by a wearer on the outside of his or her body. It may be worn under the wearer's normal clothing, over their clothing, between layers of clothing, or may be the wearer's primary clothing itself. The exosuit may be assistive, as it physically assists the wearer in performing particular activities, or can provide other functionality such as communication to the wearer through physical expressions to the body, engagement of the environment, or capturing of information from the wearer.

An exoskeleton wearable on a body of a human having two legs, the exoskeleton comprising a first HAA joint and a second HAA joint to assist the human with leg abduction and adduction movements that are parallel to a frontal plane, each of the first and the second HAA joints having an actuator, each actuator including a motor and a clutch. The exoskeleton further comprises a sensor system for measuring a combined center of mass of the human and the exoskeleton in the frontal plane and a step width of the human in the frontal plane. The exoskeleton further comprises a controller that outputs adjustment angles for each of the first and the second HAA joints based on the center of mass and the step width. The first and the second HAA joints are respectively rotated based on the respective output adjustment angles.

A physical conditioning and therapeutic conditioning system that, when configured and incorporated into the construction of a chair, has a seat, a base configured to rest on a surface, and a seat-support mechanism which is configured to couple the seat to the base and enables the seat, when unlocked in one embodiment, to be pivoted in any direction while rocking in the seat and using one's own body weight for resistance. Ideally the seat-support mechanism permits universal motion in all directions above a vertical axis, including front to back inflection and side-to-side inflection of at least 40° , including 360° of rotation on a universal type joint. The universal type joint is a ball joint consisting of a bearing stud and socket enclosed in a case, with all parts made of steel. In one embodiment, the bearing stud is tapered and fits into a hydraulic post. A ball joint is used to allow free rotation in two planes at the same time.

The universal ball joint when attached to the underside of a seat is surrounded by a metal caste collar, also attached to the underside of the seat, and with a locking system attached to the upper collar. Inserted into the upper collar, along with a lower collar attached to the arm support structure, surrounding the ball joint assembly is a hardened metal coiled spring, used ideally to stabilize, through compression, the seat in a horizontal position and allow for locking the seat in a horizontal position, when no force is applied or when not in use.

The present invention is directed to a massage chair having a massage chair frame, a massage system, and a noise-reducing, enclosure device. The frame includes a first end, a second end, a seat body area portion, and a back body area portion. The massage system includes at least one air massage element, an air pump, and at least one air valve device for regulating air flow into and out of the air massage element. The enclosure device includes an enclosure housing and noise-reducing material positioned inside the housing. The housing encloses the air pump and air valve device(s) during operation such that noise generated from or made by the air pump and air valve device(s) during operation is reduced, contained or eliminated. The present invention may include additional features: armrest sliding, shoulder airbag sliding, media player holder, virtual reality player, wireless charger, hammering devices, heating acupuncture devices, and oxygen generator.

Systems and methods described herein relate to a cup attachment for an electric percussive massager. The cup attachment may be configured for use in performing cupping therapy on a recipient using the massager. The cup attachment may include a cup region and an inner frame. The cup attachment may be made out of a flexible material. The inner frame may be made out of a rigid material. The cup attachment may include a ring portion which may deliver a direct-force cupping therapy when applied to a recipient. The cup attachment may also include a cavity which may deliver an indirect-force, air-pressure-based, cupping therapy when applied to a recipient.

An adjustable massage structure having a back panel and at least one shoulder strap set on the back panel, the back panel having a connected upper part and a lower part, an upper end of the at least one shoulder strap is connected to the back panel at a position set on the connection line of the upper part and the lower part of the back panel, the lower end of the at least one shoulder strap is connected to the lower part of the back panel by a first webbing, the at least one shoulder strap is provided with a massage head inside, the at least one shoulder strap and the upper part of the back panel is connected with a second webbing for adjustment of the shoulder strap, the second webbing is provided with a second adjustment part for adjusting the length of the second webbing.

A posture support device includes an elongate strap having: a first end comprising a first fastening member; a second end comprising a second fastening member; a first surface extending from the first end to the second end; a second surface extending from the first end to the second end; a first edge extending from the first end to the second end along a first side of the first surface and the second surface; and a second edge extending from the first end to the second end along a second side of the first surface and the second surface, the second side being opposite the first side. The strap comprises at least three pathways formed therein. In an assembled configuration, the elongate strap has a portion of the elongate strap disposed within each of the pathways and has the first and second fastening members secured to form the posture support device.
