Muscle stimulation device
11266868 · 2022-03-08 ·

A vibration apparatus and an associated motor assembly attached to a glove or wrap for a body part to stimulate muscle activity in the area of application. The apparatus is capable of generating vibrations of various amplitudes at the same frequency or within a defined frequency range. The device causes vibration in a limb to which it is attached, such that muscle that are not normally utilized in a single range of motion activity are activated. The mechanism creating the vibration may an eccentric rotating mass vibration motor assembly attached to a glove or wrist support. Use of the device with fitness equipment provides an individual with the benefits associated with vibrational motion such as increased muscle use with a single exercise motion and increased muscle memory during use with sports activities.

BOOTSTRAP FOR HIKING BOTTLE WEIGHT LIFTING EXERCISES
20210322816 · 2021-10-21 ·

Bootstrap converts any hiking bottle into a safe and long-lasting weightlifting device. It consists of two main components: 1″-1.5″ plushed strap with low elasticity and high durability, 0.4″ or thicker silicon bumper for bottle bottom.

Several embodiments have additional components used as connection items. VELCRO® brand VELSTRETCH® tape is a perfect material for the heavy bottle strap. It is used in industrial applications to withstand multiple expansions/contractions and to minimize shear stress on hands. Thick silicon bottom bumper absorbs stress coming from two bottles collision that is common for such weight lifting exercise. Overall design protects hikers head, hands, and body from injuries. Several embodiments varying aesthetically and in cost are presented. Basic math provided in the background section explains current solutions' failures. The same math lays the path to the bootstrap.
