MASSAGE MECHANISM AND MASSAGE CONTROL DEVICE THEREOF, AND MASSAGE MACHINE
A massage mechanism and a massage control device thereof, and a massage machine are disclosed. The massage mechanism includes a transmission part, a first transmission arm, a second transmission arm, and a motor and a speed reducer that are arranged on the second transmission arm; a massage wheel is mounted on the second transmission arm; the speed reducer includes a power output shaft; and a treatment wheel is eccentrically mounted on the power output shaft. The treatment wheel is eccentrically arranged on the power output shaft, and performs circumferential eccentric reciprocating rotation, so that the treatment wheel can achieve a richer movement effect when being in contact with the body of a person being treated. The moving plane of the treatment wheel is not limited to a plane.
Apparatus for Treating Knee Abnormalities
A method of treating knee abnormalities includes securing the portion of the leg above the knee to a stationary object and securing the portion of the leg below the knee to a movable support. A force is applied to the movable support to stretch the knee joint. Apparatus for carrying out the method is also disclosed.
HYDROTHERAPY SOAKING CHAIR AND METHOD FOR USE
A soaking chair comprising: a seat surface and a support structure; wherein the chair is designed for use in a shower; and wherein the seat surface comprises a soaking reservoir. The chair provides hydrotherapy to the anogenital, hip, buttocks, and/or lower back areas.
Collapsible rolling walker
A collapsible rolling walker that readily collapses for storage and/or transportation and that readily deploys for use.
Leg rehabilitation exercise apparatus
The present invention provides a leg rehabilitation exercise apparatus, which includes: a base; a seat arranged on the base; a leg exercise frame arranged on the base; an upper rotation-supporting member arranged on the leg exercise frame; a lower rotation-supporting member arranged on the leg exercise frame; a reciprocating motion section including a left lifting/lowering motion section, a right lifting/lowering motion section, an upper connection section, and a lower connection section; a left lifting/lowering member arranged on the left lifting/lowering motion section; and a right lifting/lowering member arranged on the right lifting/lowering motion section. The left lifting/lowering motion section and the right lifting/lowering motion section are operable to do lifting/lowering motions in opposite directions. The leg rehabilitation exercise apparatus of the present invention achieves an effective result of training quadriceps muscles of thighs and shanks and is also an operation safe device.
ASSISTIVE AMBULATION SYSTEMS
An example assistive ambulation system is described herein. The system includes a walker including a base frame, a walker frame attached to the base frame, a plurality of rolling members attached to the base frame, and a hoist attached to the walker. The base frame includes a pair of support members and a base cross member. Each of the support members extends between forward and rearward ends of the walker. Additionally, the pair of support members are spaced apart and substantially parallel to one another. The base cross member extends transversely between the pair of support members. The walker frame includes a pair of bent posts and a walker cross member. Each of the bent posts extends upward from the base frame. Additionally, the pair of bent posts are spaced apart and substantially parallel to one another. The walker cross member extends transversely between the pair of bent posts.
COLLAPSIBLE WHEELED WALKER WITH STABILITY ENHANCING BRACKET APPARATUS AND METHOD
The disclosure demonstrates a collapsible wheeled walker having two side frames supported above a walking surface with attached wheel assemblies. The side frames are interconnected by an X-folder apparatus. The X-folder apparatus has first and second elongate elements rotatably coupled to each other with the bottom ends of the elements rotatably attached to the bottoms of the side frames, and the top ends of the elements having perpendicular support elements that in the deployed open position, engage support brackets formed on the inner sides of the side frames. The support brackets have protrusions extending from bracket support surfaces to engage complementary apertures formed in the perpendicular support elements to provide stability to the wheeled walker.
Programmable range of motion system
A programmable range of motion system has a frame, a range of motion device, a controller, a computer and sensors. The frame has a seat to support a rehab patient. The range of motion device is attached to the frame. The actuator, servo or alternate mechanism selectively rotates the range of motion device through a range of motion for a rehab patient's limb. The controller controls the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism. The computer is connected electronically to the controller. The computer has a software, program or application including a plurality of programmable range of motion movements for exercising the limb. The sensor detects movements of the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism and records data back to the computer. The term actuator as used hereafter includes servo or alternate articulating mechanism.
Walking assistance assembly
A walking assistance assembly includes a set of first legs forming an X a set of second legs forming an X. A frame is coupled to each of the first and second sets of legs. Moreover, the frame is horizontally oriented when the first and second legs are in an unfolded position thereby facilitating the frame to surround a user. Each of the first and second legs supports the frame thereby supporting the weight of the user to assist the user with standing. A plurality of rollers is each of the rollers is rotatably coupled to a respective one of the first and second legs and each of the rollers can roll along a support surface. A seat is coupled between the set of first and second legs for having the user sit thereon.
Systems and methods for coordinating musculoskeletal and cardiovascular or cerebrovascular hemodynamics
Described herein are systems and methods of guiding a user to achieve musculoskeletal counterpulsation. A method may include receiving a cardiovascular cycle signal from a first sensor; determining a heart rate of the user based on the cardiovascular cycle signal; receiving a rhythmic musculoskeletal activity timing signal from a second sensor; determining an actual musculoskeletal activity cycle (MSKC) to cardiovascular cycle (CC) timing relationship; comparing the actual MSKC to CC timing relationship to a target MSKC to CC timing relationship; providing a recurrent prompt to the user as a timing indication for performance of a rhythmic musculoskeletal activity to guide the user to achieve a musculoskeletal activity cycle rate (MSKR) that approaches the target MSKC to CC timing relationship; and altering a feature of the recurrent prompt based on a determined alignment between the actual MSKC to CC timing relationship and the target MSKC to CC timing relationship.
