Systems and methods for exerting force on bodies
Systems and methods for exerting forces on a body, including a support structure defining a space and a plurality of surface contacting units that are configured to exert force upon the body, such that the weight is distributed away from the primary weight bearing regions to non-weight bearing regions of the body, or vice versa, without exerting significant shear or frictional forces on surfaces of the body. The systems and methods may be used to exert forces to cause fluid shift in different compartments of the body. Applications include treatment of various disease conditions including pressure ulcers, heart failure, high blood pressure, preeclampsia, osteoporosis, injuries of spine and to slow microgravity-induced bone and muscle loss. The systems and methods may be used to simulate gravity, weightlessness or buoyancy, in rehabilitation medicine. The system may include a chair, bed, a wearable suit or an exoskeleton.
Flexible vibration module for snap in attachment to a grommet embedded in a compression wrap
A flexible vibrating module with flexible radiating arms outwardly projecting around the module, with each arm having an associated coin motor which can optionally be operated at high frequency or low frequency or pulsing frequency, is shown in combination with a wrap having a snap in flexible grommet for the module to consistently orient properly the module with respect to a patient's muscles or joints.
Fascia gun
The invention discloses a fascia gun, which comprises a case, a motor, an eccentric gear, a guide rail, a percussion stick, a massage head group and a circuit board. A rotating shaft of the motor is connected with the eccentric gear. The percussion stick comprises a connector, a guide seat and a connecting rod. An eccentric shaft of the eccentric gear is fitted in an oblong hole of the connector. The guide rail is fitted in an axle hole of the guide seat. One end of the connecting rod is connected with the guide seat, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected with the massage head group. The fascia gun disclosed by the invention has the advantages of simple structure, beautiful appearance, small size and low cost.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPERATING SMART MASSAGE SERVICE OF SMART MASSAGE CHAIR, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM RECORDING THE METHOD
Provided is a method of operating a smart massage service of a smart massage chair by using a computer system including at least one smart massage chair terminal, a user terminal, and a server computer connected through a network, including: receiving registration application information from the smart massage chair terminal or the user terminal; transmitting registration completion information to the smart massage chair terminal or the user terminal once a smart massage chair terminal of a company of interest or an authorized massage chair terminal of another company is confirmed by using the registration application information; receiving content request information from the registered smart massage chair terminal or the registered user terminal; and transmitting content information corresponding to the content request information to the smart massage chair terminal or the user terminal.
PERCUSSIVE THERAPY DEVICE WITH ORIENTATION, POSITION, AND FORCE SENSING AND ACCESSORY THEREFOR
A percussive therapy device includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and at least one of an angular position sensor configured to obtain angular position data of the percussive therapy device and a linear position sensor configured to obtain linear position data of the percussive therapy device. An attachment module is configured to be operably connected with a percussive therapy device and includes a housing, a wireless connection module, and at least one sensor configured to obtain biometric data of the user or obtain information regarding operation of the percussive therapy device.
Y-Shaped Percussion Massager with Side-Mounted Motor
A percussive massage appliance has a general Y-shape, with first and second handle portions being suitable for being held by first and second hands, respectively, of a user, with the percussive massage head reciprocating along an axis that lies in a major arc defined by the two handle portions. The device has a rotation mechanism such that the user can rotate the reciprocation axis through an arc of about 120 degrees relative to the handles. The massager has a side-mounted brushless motor that drives the reciprocating output shaft through a crank wheel, a crank pin, and a connecting rod, without any gears therebetween. Batteries can be located in each of the two handles, providing a large battery capacity.
Massager
Disclosed embodiments provide a massager for massage and stimulation. The massager in accordance with disclosed embodiments can operate in a massage mode, or a vibration mode. The massage mode is a low-speed mode of operation. The vibration mode is a high-speed mode of operation. In some embodiments, the massager may alternate between a massage mode and a vibration mode. In this way, the massager of disclosed embodiments can perform a motion that more closely mimics human finger motion while in the massage mode, and can create a sensation of a traditional vibrator in the vibration mode. In some embodiments, the massager may alternate between a massage mode and a vibration mode to create an enhanced user experience.
PERSONAL USE EXTRACORPOREAL LOW INTENSITY SHOCK WAVE DEVICE TIP FORCE DETECTION AND ANNUNCIATION MEANS AND METHODS FOR USING SAME
A tip force monitoring and annunciation means which permits maintaining proper tip pressure during treatment of self-applied acoustic wave treatment for various parts of the user's body by an untrained user. The several embodiments of the disclosure employ designs, materials, and manufacturing methods which are inexpensive and consistent with current manufacturing practices. The functionality, size, cost, simplicity, ease of use, reliability and robustness of the proposed designs are all advantageous.
Hands-Free Electromechanical Vibrating Female Stimulation Device
A hands-free female sexual organ stimulation apparatus stimulates the vulva region by detachably clipping to the labia majora while generating multiple speeds of vibrations to produce stimulation at the female sexual organ. The apparatus comprises an elongated disc sized to mate with the vulva. The disc has a mount face, an opposing stimulation face, and an outer wall extending therebetween. The stimulation face forms a flush, mating relationship with the vulva. A vibration portion rests concentrically on the stimulation face. The vibration portion engages the urethra while being partially fitted into the vagina. A vibratory motor with multiple speeds is embedded into the vibration portion. A receiver and a remote transmitter remotely control the vibratory motor. A tension clip detachably clips the disc to the labia majora. The clip has a curved shape that reduces pressure for enhanced comfort to the labia majora.
PERCUSSIVE THERAPY DEVICE WITH ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED ATTACHMENT
A percussive therapy system includes a percussive therapy device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and an attachment configured to be operatively connected to a distal end of the push rod assembly of the percussive massage device and to provide at least one therapeutic effect to a user. The attachment may include at least one of an actuator configured to provide the at least one therapeutic effect to the user and a sensor configured to obtain at least one of biometric data of the user and information regarding operation of the percussive therapy device.
