A device for supporting and relieving a load on an arm of a user includes an upper subregion, a lower subregion, and a joint that has a horizontal axis of rotation where the upper subregion and the lower subregion are connected by the joint such that the upper subregion is pivotable in an upper spatial direction and a lower spatial direction about the horizontal axis of rotation of the joint. The joint is pivotable in the upper spatial direction and the lower spatial direction in a first state and is pivotable only in the upper spatial direction in a second state.

The present disclosure relates to a massage assembly, a human body massage device and an operation method thereof. The massage assembly includes: a first massage arm; a first massage head, rotatably connected to the first massage arm to massage acupoints and skin near an anus along with a motion of the first massage arm relative to a human body; and a rotation locking structure, arranged between the first massage arm and the first massage head to adjust, lock or unlock a rotation angle of the first massage head relative to the first massage arm. According to the present disclosure, the massage mode of the acupoints near the anus can be adjusted as required, and the massage effect can be improved.

A joint actuator assembly includes a motor, a rotating driving member driven by the motor for driving a driven component, and a transmission assembly located between the motor and the rotating driving member that provides speed reduction from the motor to the rotating driving member. The rotating driving member comprises a magnetic coupling including a plurality of magnetic elements that are configured to magnetically couple with an opposing magnetic coupling of the driven component. The actuator and driven component may be combined into a mobility device including a magnetic coupling system having a first magnetic coupling on the actuator that magnetically couples to a second magnetic coupling on the driven component. The magnetic coupling system includes plurality of magnetic elements located as part of one or both of the first and second magnetic couplings. The first and second couplings have opposing mating surfaces that join together in a coupled position.

This describes a treatment method for autism/ASD intended to induce greater intrinsic motivation to make eye contact in affected children. The treatment method incorporates an artificial demonstration of the phenomenon of eye contact, and that method is described herein along with the principles of action of the treatment and the necessary procedure to perform it. Also described are two embodiments of a therapy tool that can be used to effect the demonstration: first, an item in the form of a cuboid with animatronic eyes affixed to one side, and second, another in the form of a stuffed dog.

A skin care device includes a massage head, a body to which the head is intended to be removably attached. The body includes a housing and a motor for actuating the head, and a coupling system for transmitting rotation from the motor to the head. The coupling system includes first and second coupling members, one of which constitutes a male member and the other constitutes a female member intended to receive the male member to cooperate with the male member in a form-fitting manner. The first coupling member is mounted in a substantially rotational manner relative to the housing, and the male member hasa general conical shape and including fins the free edges of which define the general conical shape.

A link assembly includes a main frame, a base link rotatably connected to the main frame, an input link rotatably connected to the main frame, and an output link at least 2-degree of freedom (DOF) rotatably connected to the main frame.

A motion assistance apparatus includes a waist frame configured to support a waist of a user, and a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of the user. A pressure applied to a thigh of the user by the proximal support in a sitting state in which the user is sitting may be greater than a pressure applied to the thigh of the user by the proximal support in a standing state in which the user is standing upright.

The invention relates to a stimulation device comprising a main part and a rubber-elastic sleeve which is intended for contact with a body part of a user and which encloses the main part and has a reversibly deformable contact surface region, wherein a shaping element, which is designed to produce a locally limited deformation of the sleeve without deformation of the main part, is arranged on the main part so as to be movable relative to the main part, and an actuating device, which is operatively connected to the shaping element in order to generate a movement of the shaping element, is arranged on the main part and comprises an electric motor having a rotor shaft to which an eccentric is fastened, and the shaping element comprises a pivotally mounted lever having two free ends, wherein a first end of the lever is operatively connected to the eccentric of the actuating device in order to convert a rotation of the rotor shaft into a pivoting movement of the lever, and a second end of the lever acts in a deforming manner on the contact surface region.

A system and method are disclosed that allows a practitioner to rotate a human subject in three different axes of rotation, independently from one another and without limitation on the degree of rotation, which allows for the treatment of various systems of the human subject.

A sitting type spinal traction and disc massage apparatus includes a seat member, a seat pad disposed atop the seat member, a fixing member straddling the seat member and the seat pad and connected to the seat member to fix hips of a user to the seat member, and a moving backrest board disposed atop a rear end of the seat member. The moving backrest board is movable relative to the seat member. A restricting member straddles and is connected to the moving backrest board to fix the user's upper body to the moving backrest board. A lifting unit is disposed below the moving backrest board to move the moving backrest board upwardly from the seat member to stretch the user's spine. A vibrating unit is disposed within and vibrates the seat pad.
