Adjustable patient therapy device
A patient therapy device for providing treatment to a patient. The therapy device improves conformance to a joint and adjoining body parts. The device includes an angle adjustment assembly for forming the device into one of a plurality of predefined angles. The predefined angles may correspond to a desired angle of a joint during treatment. Further disclosed is a device for assisting a user with applying the therapy device to a body part. Also disclosed are methods of administering a treatment to an animate body.
Stretching device to restore and protect against the negative effects of prolonged sitting
The stretching device and methods disclosed herein allow an individual to create and sustain a differential stretch to the anterior muscles and ligaments of the torso, hips and legs. The device includes a base frame, a vertical member secured to the base frame, a rotational lift lever secured to the vertical member at a vertical pivot member, a lower extremity elevation member secured to the rotational lift member, and at least one lower extremity attachment device secured to the lower extremity elevation member. In methods of use, the device is used to create an anterior stretch by lifting an individual's leg or legs off of the ground, while the person is prone, so as to create a stretch in the anterior muscles, fascia, or ligaments. The device has various planes of rotation, and is adjustable in height as well as transverse displacement along the base to accommodate different body types.
WAIST ROTATING MECHANISM
The present disclosure provides a waist rotating mechanism. The waist rotating mechanism includes: a back connection structure (10), where the back connection structure (10) is configured to connect to the back of a user, and a mobile apparatus (11) is disposed on the back connection structure (10); and a rail (20), where the mobile apparatus (11) is disposed movably on the rail (20). The waist rotating mechanism of the present disclosure enables the user to complete a waist rotation action by rotating the waist to slide the mobile apparatus on the rail, and has a simple structure and high flexibility.
Universal tensegrity joints for human exoskeleton
An exoskeleton includes first and second compression members configured to be coupled to a wearer of the exoskeleton. A tensegrity joint connects the first compression member to the second compression member, the joint including a tensile member having a first end and a second end. The first end is coupled to the first compression member on a first side of the joint, and the second end is coupled to the first compression member on a second side of the joint opposite the first side.
VIBRATING FAT ELIMINATING DEVICE
A vibrating fat eliminating device includes a vibrating mainbody, a chair body and a positioning unit. The vibrating mainbody includes a fixing notch and an upper surface, wherein the fixing notch is disposed on the upper surface. The chair body is detachably disposed on the vibrating mainbody and includes a supporting frame and a cushion, wherein the supporting frame is disposed on the upper surface, the cushion is disposed on the supporting frame, and the supporting frame includes a connecting portion having a through hole. The positioning unit passes through the through hole and is connected to the fixing notch correspondingly, wherein the chair body is detachably disposed on the upper surface via the positioning unit.
Piece of fitness equipment
A piece of fitness equipment comprises a carrier for carrying a pump on a body part of a person. The carrier comprises a main body having a first end and a second end, a fastener capable of connecting the first end and the second end with each other, and a holder for detachably attaching the pump to the main body.
GARMENT SYSTEM INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE SENSOR AND AT LEAST ONE ACTUATOR RESPONSIVE TO THE SENSOR AND RELATED METHODS
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a garment system including at least one sensor and at least one actuator that operates responsive to sensing feedback from the at least one sensor to cause a flexible compression garment to selectively constrict or selectively dilate, thereby compressing or relieving compression against at least one body part of a subject. Such selective constriction or dilation can improve muscle functioning or joint functioning during use of motion-conducive equipment, such as an exercise bike or rowing machine.
ADJUSTABLE RESPIRATOR SHELL
An adjustable respirator shell, suitable for being worn on a human body trunk, includes a body, a belt and a buffer. The body includes a protrusive portion and a contact portion. The protrusive portion has an opening connecting a fluid pressure controller, and the contact portion is to contact the human body trunk. The belt, connecting the body, is to surround the human body trunk so as to fasten the adjustable respirator shell on the human body trunk. The buffer covers a circumference of the contact portion, and the contact portion contacts the human body trunk via the buffer. In addition, the buffer includes at least one cushion.
SEAT ASSEMBLY THAT INCLUDES A MODULAR FOAM ARRANGEMENT AND A PNEUMATIC BLADDER SUB-ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR FABRICATING THE SAME
Seat assemblies and methods for fabricating seat assemblies are provided. In one example, a seat assembly includes a seat frame and a seat cushion that is supported by the seat frame. The seat cushion includes a modular foam arrangement that includes a first modular foam section. A pneumatic bladder sub-assembly is coupled to the first modular foam section. The pneumatic bladder sub-assembly includes a plurality of bladder cells each configured to independently expand and contract to produce movement that is communicated to the first modular foam section. An outer covering at least partially covers the modular foam arrangement.
Self-contained portable positionable oscillating motor array including an outer harness providing a compressive force
In some embodiments, a system may include a first wearable harness worn, during use, on a torso of a subject. The system may include a second wearable harness worn, during use, on a torso of a subject on an outer surface of the first wearable harness. The system may include a plurality of engines which when activated apply an oscillation force to at least one treatment area. At least one of the plurality of engines may be releasably couplable to the first wearable harness using a positioning system such that the oscillation force is applied to the treatment areas. The oscillation force may mobilize, during use, at least some secretions in an airway within the subject at least adjacent the treatment area. The second wearable harness, when activated, may provide a compressive force to at least some of the activated plurality of engines positioned above the treatment area.
