Exercise assembly
An exercise assembly for execution of an exercise regimen by a user having a base assembly and a support assembly. The exercise assembly includes a resistive track assembly mounted to a portion of the support assembly. The resistive track assembly has a plurality of resistive track members each having a resistive track channel through a portion thereof. The exercise assembly further includes a carriage assembly having at least one handle interconnected to at least one carriage through the resistive track channel of a corresponding resistive track member. Each handle and carriage is moveable along a portion of a corresponding resistive track member. The resistive force assembly includes a plurality of resistive force members, and at least one resistive force member is interconnected to each carriage to present a resistive force to counter movement of the carriage along a corresponding resistive track member.
SOUND DEVICE FOR BLIND AND VISUALLY IMPAIRED SPORTS
A sound-generating device is adapted to be fitted in a ball or other type of sports equipment and can aid location tracking by blind and visually impaired athletes during game play. The sound generated by the device is adapted for localization by the athlete in each of the x, y, and z planes. A shock sensor can be used to signal a sound generator to produce a different sound when a change of momentum or direction is detected.
SPECIALIZED STRAP ASSIST GLOVE AND RECEIVING TUBE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH LIMITED HAND DEXTERITY
A wearable assist device and receiving tube for providing grip assist to a wearer of limited hand and grip ability during manipulation of an elongated article. The device includes an attachable body having each of thumb, hand and wrist strap portions adapted to being secured to a hand of the user. The receiving tube engages to the body in manner which prevents the tube from sliding or rotating relative to the body. The elongated article includes and not limited to any of a golf club or fishing rod and is adapted to being resistively engaged within the tube in a manner which compensates for the limitations in the user's hand and grip ability during a motion induced manipulation of the article.
Rehabilitation assistance device and program for controlling rehabilitation assistance device
A rehabilitation assistance device (1), provided with: an arm part (30) having a holding part (20) for holding a part of the upper limb or the lower limb of a user, the arm part (30) movably supporting the holding part (20); a memory unit (80) for storing training information, the memory unit (80) storing first training information defined in advance; a motion information acquisition unit (61) for acquiring motion information associated with the movement of the holding part (20), the motion information acquisition unit (61) acquiring first motion information for the holding part (20) moved on the basis of the first training information; a motion evaluation unit (72) for generating evaluation information in which the motion information is evaluated, the motion evaluation unit (72) evaluating the first motion information and generating first evaluation information; and a display (40) for displaying at least one of the training information, the motion information, and the evaluation information.
BILATERAL HAND REHABILITATION DEVICE AND SYSTEM
A bilateral hand rehabilitation device is disclosed. The device includes a pair of left and right handlebar members that are fixedly coupled or connected together. The device further includes a pair of moveable left and right finger grip members, one for each of the handlebar members. Each finger grip member being elongate and having a longitudinal axis that is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of its respective handlebar member, and each finger grip member being moveably mounted with respect to its respective handlebar member for movement toward and away from the handlebar member to facilitate a user finger grasp and release movement when in use. The device further includes an asymmetric connection mechanism that operatively couples the pair of finger grip members to each other for simultaneous asymmetric movement of the finger grip members such that the movement of one finger grip member toward or away from its respective handlebar member causes the other finger grip member to move in the opposite direction away or toward its respective handlebar member.
Bodyweight exercise apparatus
An exercise apparatus includes: a support track including a first channel on a first side, a second channel on a second side, and a row of fixation holes, the first channel, the second channel, and the row of fixation holes being parallel to each other; a carriage including a carriage frame, a pin rod, a first side roller, and a second side roller, wherein: the pin rod is coupled to the carriage frame and positioned to be removably inserted into at least one of the fixation holes to fix a position of the carriage with respect to the support track, the first side roller is coupled to the carriage frame and positioned within the first channel, and the second side roller is coupled to the carriage frame and positioned within the second channel; and at least one support bar affixed to the carriage.
ADAPTED FITNESS EQUIPMENT
An exercise apparatus includes an adjustable frame being attachable to an assistive ambulation device. The adjustable frame includes removable handles, fitting arms located on a lower portion of the adjustable frame to receive a fitness attachment, and attachment points on located on the lower portion of the adjustable frame to couple a resistance device. A jump rope trainer includes a handle; flexible tubing including a handle fastener to connect the handle to the flexible tubing; and a soft sphere shaped object. The flexible tubing includes a soft sphere shaped object fastener to connect the soft sphere shaped object to the flexible tubing.
Shoe based bowling apparatus
A shoe based bowling apparatus that includes: a bracket member having a concave shape to receive therein and remain in contact with at least one third of a circumference of a bowling ball; and a tongue member including a first end bent upward at an angle of approximately 90 degrees from a center portion thereof, the first end extending from a center of the bracket member, and a second end bent upward at an angle sufficient to rest along a length of a tongue of a shoe while the first end remains extending away from a surface in which the shoes rests, the second end being connected to a front end of the shoe.
Universal protective headgear
A universal combination sweatband, headband, and protective headgear device covers and protects crucial areas around the entire circumference of a user's head while conforming to each user's particular anatomy, including head shape and size. Two or more layers of impact absorbing elastomeric polymer materials having full elastic memory are encapsulated on either the inside or the external part of the headgear, between inner and outer layers of moisture absorbing material, such as neoprene or cotton knitted fabric. Hook and loop fasteners or stretching allow for adjusted fitting to the user's head. The elastomeric polymer layers are structured and disposed to absorb and dissipate significant impact forces. The two or more layers of elastomeric polymeric materials are provided with an arrangement of ventilation holes formed therethrough to allow perspiration to be transferred from the inner layer to the outer layer of moisture absorbing material for dissipation.
