20210353489 · 2021-11-18 ·

A vibrotactile support with suppressed distortion and destructive interference having a rigid frame within which is tensioned a high-density material panel in a supportive configuration. A low-durometer, high specific gravity material user interface pad is placed on the high-density panel on the user-supporting side and a plurality of acoustic drivers are attached to the opposing side of the high-density material panel to transmit vibrations through the high-density material panel, the pad, and the user's skin. The acoustic drivers are supplied from an amplifier which is supplied from an electronic audio source. The amplifier may also drive a set of headphones for the user. The audio source may be from any known electronic audio source, including audio-visual presentations. Various shapes and configurations of the vibrotactile support are possible. For non-limiting examples, the vibrotactile support may be configured as a lounge chair, upright chair, baby cradle, or flat bed.

DEVICE FOR SYNCHRONIZED SOUND, VIBRATION AND MAGNETIC FIELD STIMULATION
20230029326 · 2023-01-26 ·

An apparatus capable of creating synchronized sound, vibration and magnetic field stimulation, for the purpose of habituating and inhibiting brain function while stimulating the human spiritual energy system, is described. The apparatus comprises an amplifier and transducers built into a comfortable seating arrangement including a support structure and a motion platform. The support structure, such as a chair, rests upon the motion platform, which is adapted to impart three-dimensional motion to the support structure. The apparatus uses layered music to create synchronized sounds, vibrations and magnetic fields.

DUAL-PURPOSE PHYSIOTHERAPY INSTRUMENT WITH BALANCE AND VIBRATION FUNCTIONS

A dual-purpose physiotherapy instrument includes a base, electromagnetic drives, a plate body and a movable board. The plate body is mounted on the upper end of the base. A surface of the plate body away from the base includes stoppers. The movable board is mounted to the plate body in a detachable manner. A first surface on the movable board includes limit holes that are matched with the stoppers. The middle part of a second surface opposite to the first surface includes a protruding portion. When the first surface of the movable board is mounted to the plate body, the movable board can integrally vibrate up and down. When the second surface of the movable board is mounted to the plate body, the protruding portion is pressed against the plate body to cause the two ends of the movable board to swing up and down relative to the support portion.--
