Compression Device Especially for Preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis
A compression device particularly suited for DVT prophylaxis includes a disposable wrap and a re-usable controller removably mounted on the wrap to apply a tensioning force to the wrap when it is encircling the limb of a patient. The wrap includes a strap wrapped around an electric motor-driven pulley, with an encoder to determine the amount of rotation of the pulley and a current sensor to determine the current load on the motor during operation. A pretension protocol sets the pulley of the wrap at a proper frap position so that the wrap can properly execute a DVT prophylaxis protocol.
Unpowered wearable walking assistance knee equipment with gait self-adaptivity
The present disclosure discloses an unpowered wearable walking assistance knee equipment with gait self-adaptivity comprising a left foot power output assembly, a right foot power output assembly, a left leg knee joint assistance execution assembly, a right leg knee joint assistance execution assembly and a driving force transmission device. The equipment of the present disclosure is based on lever principle and crank block structure principle and adopts an operation mode of combining ipsilateral parallel driving input and different sides cross driving input. The self-weight of the human body is utilized as a driving force during the walking process to enable the left foot power output assembly to provide the left leg knee joint assistance execution assembly with a pulling force for its stretching and to provide the right leg knee joint assistance execution assembly with a pulling force for its bending, and to enable the right foot power output assembly to provide the right leg knee joint assistance execution assembly with a pulling force for its stretching and to provide the left leg knee joint assistance execution assembly with a pulling force for its bending, so that a torque for assisting the stretching and bending of the left leg knee joint and the right leg knee joint is generated according to a gait cycle regularity during the walking process, and the goal of walking assistance is achieved.
Back Massaging Assembly
A back massaging assembly for realigning vertebrae of a user includes a pad, which is positioned on an upper face of a bench. A roller module is positioned in a void that is positioned in the pad. The roller module comprises a rotatable cylinder, which extends substantially between opposed edges of the void. An upper limit of the rotatable cylinder extends past an upper surface of the pad. An actuator is operationally engaged to the roller module and is positioned to cycle the rotatable cylinder between a first edge and a second edge of the void, thereby massaging a back of a user who is lying supinely on the pad.
Catheter with Shock Wave Electrodes Aligned on Longitudinal Axis
A catheter that fits within a blood vessel wall includes electrodes aligned along a longitudinal axis of the catheter that produce unfocused shock waves that propagate radially toward the blood vessel wall for treatment.
PASSIVE EXOSKELETON FOR SIT-TO-STAND AND STAND-TO-SIT TRANSFER
A wearable passive exoskeleton device for sit-to-stand and/or stand-to-sit transfer includes a leg exoskeleton frame configured to be worn at a user's leg and a lever arm rotatably coupled to the leg exoskeleton frame so as to provide a handle for the user to move between a sitting position and a standing position (or between a kneeling position and a standing position). The lever arm is rotatable with respect to the leg exoskeleton frame between a stowed position and a deployed position. The lever arm may be a unidirectional lever arm configured to rotate only in a first rotational direction with respect to the leg exoskeleton frame such that a pushing or pulling force exerted in a second rotational direction transmits an assisting force to the user to assist in a sit-to-stand and/or stand-to-sit movement.
Proportional joint-moment control for powered exoskeletons and prostheses
Lower-limb exoskeletons used to improve free-living mobility for individuals with neuromuscular impairment must be controlled to prescribe assistance that adapts to the diverse locomotor conditions encountered during daily life, including walking at different speeds and across varied terrain. This system employs an ankle exoskeleton control strategy that instantly and appropriately adjusts assistance to the changing biomechanical demand during variable walking. Specifically, this system utilizes a proportional joint-moment control strategy that prescribes assistance as a function of the instantaneous estimate of the ankle joint moment.
TWO STAGE ACTUATOR FOR POWERED MOBILITITY ASSISTANCE DEVICES WITH ELECTRICAL ISOLATION
An enhanced actuator assembly, such as for use in driving a joint member of a wearable robotic device, is characterized by electrical isolation of the motor from the transmission system output. An actuator assembly includes a motor and a transmission system that provides a speed reduction of a motor speed to an output speed. The transmission system includes a non-conductive material layer that electrically isolates the motor from an output of the transmission system. The transmission system may be a two-stage transmission system. A first stage of speed reduction of the transmission system may include a first rotating member, such as a first helical gear, attached to the output shaft of the motor that transmits power to a second rotating member, such as a second helical gear. The second rotating member has a diameter larger than a diameter of the first rotating member to form the first stage of speed reduction, and the non-conductive material layer is part of the second rotating member.
SUPPORTER HAVING BISTABLE SPRING, AND EXERCISE ASSISTANCE APPARATUS INCLUDING SAME
A supporter for a wearable exercise apparatus may include a main body; a pair of main frames connected to the main body; a pair of straps connected to the pair of main frames, respectively; and a bistable spring which is provided inside each of the pair of the straps and maintained in one of two stable states by a restoring force. The two stable states include a first stable state in which the bistable spring has a shape extending straight along the longitudinal direction and a second stable state in which the bistable spring has a shape that is bent once. The shape of the strap may be determined according to the shape of the bistable spring.
PASSIVE EXOSKELETON BASED ON ENERGY FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF FOOT-ANKLE COMPLEX
A passive exoskeleton based on energy flow characteristics of a foot-ankle complex includes a first passive exoskeleton. The first passive exoskeleton includes an energy distribution mechanism, a strike-recipient mechanism and a wearing fixing assembly. The energy distribution mechanism is connected to the strike-recipient mechanism, and the energy distribution mechanism is also connected to the wearing fixing assembly. The energy distribution mechanism includes a ratchet wheel shaft, a left torsional spring, a right torsional spring and a middle guide wheel respectively sleeved on the ratchet wheel shaft. The middle guide wheel is connected to the wearing fixing assembly through an ankle joint power-assisted cord. The ratchet wheel shaft is connected to the strike-recipient mechanism, the strike-recipient mechanism drives the ratchet wheel shaft to rotate, and the ratchet wheel shaft drives the left torsional spring, the right torsional spring and the middle guide wheel to rotate.
