HEALTH BRACE
The present invention is brace including a main body and a strap attached to the main body for adjusting the main body around a body part. The main body and the strap are a unitary body. The brace includes a first zone having a first specific elongation and a second zone having a second specific elongation.
CUSTOMIZABLE FITTED APPARATUS
A customizable fitted device for immobilizing injuries and a method for constructing the fitted device is provided. The fitted device can be used to stabilize an arm, wrist, hand, leg, knee, ankle, foot or other body parts through custom formation. The device can be formed by a sidewall having one or more sidewall sections that can be secured together using retaining clips positioned within retaining clip slots on the device. The device can further include one or more openings defined in the sidewall of each device section while maintaining rigidity in the sidewall. The device can be constructed by of creating a 3D image scan of the particular body part on which the device will be applied, creating a design of the device to precisely match the contours of the 3D image scan, and using a 3D printer to construct the device according to the design.
Variable compression body anchor
In some embodiments, a body anchor for supporting an assistive device can include: a cuff to exert a compression force on a body part of a user; and one or more tensile elements having first ends and second ends. The first ends of the tensile elements can be configured to be attached to the assistive device. The second ends of the tensile elements can be arranged about the cuff to cause the compression force to vary in proportion to a load exerted by the assistive device.
Compression garment
A compression garment for a body includes a first material, an upper part having a first opening adapted to receive the body part, a central portion, and a lower part. The compression garment further includes a tensioning device adapted to adjust the level of compression of the garment on the body part.
DEVICE FOR STABILIZING MOVEMENTS OF TWO PARTS OF A BODY REGION AND/OR OF A SPORTS DEVICE
An apparatus for stabilizing movements of two parts of a body region and/or of a sports device which are movable relative to one another, comprising a receptacle, which can be fixed to a first part of the region and/or device. An active body arrangement with an active body is received movably in the receptacle and can interact with the filling medium. A force transmission body can be fixed to a second part of the same region and/or device for transmitting an external force to the active body. The active body comprises at least one through-opening through which a filling medium in the receptacle can flow. The active body arrangement has a sealing lip for sealing a gap between an inner side of the receptacle and a lateral region of an outer side of the active body arrangement, the sealing lip being arranged on an outer side of the active body.
A POLYSILOXANES ORTHOPAEDIC IMMOBILIZER
A polysiloxanes orthopaedic immobilizer relates to a construction and method for forming an orthopaedic apparatus and more particularly, to medical shell for preventing and supporting fractured body part. Moreover, the present invention is to provide a curable orthopaedic apparatus for immobilizing fractured body parts wherein said apparatus converts in rigid immobilizer by applying visible light. An apparatus comprising polygon hollow tube in which composition of resin is filled for curing. Moreover, an apparatus has a maximum light distribution tendency, viscus fluid distribution tendency and comprises a safe layer prevents direct contact of skin to said apparatus. [FIG. 1]
ACTIVE SPLINT FOR TREATING A DISLOCATION OF THE PERINEAL BONE, AND KIT COMPRISING SAME
An active splint to treat a dislocation of the perineal bone. The active splint includes a sleeve in which a slide is arranged with the ability to slide between a retracted position and a deployed position. The slide includes a head configured to rest bearing against the head of a perineal bone of a user. An elastic return member is configured to urge the slide towards its retracted position. A blocking member immobilizes the slide and keeps the slide in its deployed position. A detent member is configured to act on the blocking member so as to release the slide from its deployed position.
ORTHOSIS FASTENING SYSTEM
The present invention relates to an orthosis (100) for bracing a body part. A first side (20) of the orthosis (100) comprises a connector element (1), and a second side (30) of the orthosis (100) comprising a receiving element (2). The connector and receiving elements (1, 2) together form a fastening system. The connector element (1) comprises a loop (3), wherein the receiving element (2) comprises a receiving component (4) adapted to receive said loop (3).
Pain management and post-operative hip orthosis
An improved pain management and post-operative hip orthosis includes a waist strap having first and second ends, a lower strap having first and second ends, and a pocket extending between the waist strap and lower strap. The pocket has inner and outer panels fastened to each other to define an upper opening and a lower opening. A cooling pack including a reservoir and inlet and outlet tubes extending from a bottom of the reservoir is applied to the pocket such that the inlet and outlet tubes pass through the lower opening of the pocket.
EXOSUIT HAVING ADJUSTABLE MODULAR STRAPS AND BANDS
A wearable assistance device, such as an exosuit/exoskeleton, for providing assistance (e.g., assistive force or assistive torque) while reducing lower back muscle stress, fatigue, injury risk and/or pain is disclosed. The wearable assistance device includes adjustable modular straps and/or elastic bands. The modular straps allow swapping of different straps to achieve a custom fit of the wearable assistance device. The modular elastic bands allow swapping of different elastic bands to achieve a preferred level of assistance by the wearable assistance device.
