A medical device for providing oscillatory motion to an individual is provided. The medical device includes a holder that can hold one or more body parts of an individual and an oscillatory mechanism that can transmit an oscillating force to the holder. The medical device includes one or more sensors that provide information about the individual and one or more compliant components that are configured to allow movement of the one or more body parts that deviates from a movement of oscillation. The oscillating mechanism can dynamically change a frequency of an oscillation based on feedback from the one or more sensors. The oscillating mechanism can also dynamically change an amplitude of the oscillation based on feedback from the one or more sensors.

Reclinable Therapeutic Massage Chair

A therapeutic massage chair is reclinable between a horizontal and inclined position. The chair includes an upper back support member and a lower support member that is axially movable along a support frame, and is also rotatable about an axis which is perpendicular to the plane of the upper back support member. Electric linear actuators are provided to recline the therapeutic massage chair, and both axially move and oscillate the lower body support member. The therapeutic massage chair may be fitted with a controller system which allows the chair to be operated wirelessly from a mobile device running a mobile application, which may communicate with a web-based portal and/or database.

Differential air pressure exercise and therapeutic device

An exercise and therapeutic device includes a treadmill comprising a running belt coupled to a treadmill frame and an offloading system coupled to the treadmill. The offloading system includes an air chamber surrounding the running belt adapted to be selectively inflated between a deflated condition and an inflated, operating condition, a user seal coupled to the air chamber, adapted to receive a user so that, in an operating condition, at least a portion of a user is received in the user seal and positioned within the air chamber and to seal the air chamber around the user, a pump operable to inflate the air chamber, at least one strap coupled to the treadmill frame and adapted to restrict the expansion of the air chamber and adjust a spacing of the user seal relative to a running surface of the running belt when the air chamber is inflated.

Rotational swing systems and methods for providing vestibular stimulation

A rotational swing system is used for providing vestibular stimulation. The rotational swing system may include a rotational swing that is actuated by a motor. The system has a support frame arranged so that the motor does not need to bear the weight of the swing, thereby reducing the cost of the motor. When the system is used in a classroom to provide vestibular stimulation to a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), the automatic actuation of the swing by the motor helps to free the teacher's attention for addressing the needs of the other children in the classroom.

BALANCE DEVICE WITH PIVOTABLE PLATE
20230015712 · 2023-01-19 ·

A device for evaluating and training ankle joint mobility has a plate for supporting a user's a foot or feet, the plate being oscillatable about at least one axis of rotation and provided with an upper support plane, and a fixed support, configured to oscillatably support the plate with respect to a support surface. The plate has at least one contact member configured to oscillatably support the plate with respect to the fixed support, a toothed sector, integrally movable with the at least one contact member and having teeth facing the plate, a gear member meshing with the toothed sector, and a gearmotor connected to the gear member.

11696864 · 2023-07-11 ·

An upper body attachment, which may be used with a piece of exercising, stretching, or massaging equipment that incorporates whole body vibration (WBV) technology, and provides a user with a way to apply WBV technology to the upper body. The attachment may include a pair of uprights and a crossbar to which a variety of types of handles may be slidably attached. The attachment may have a base that both supports the uprights and connects the uprights with the equipment incorporating the WBV technology. Accordingly, the attachment transfers vibrations from the vibrating equipment to the handles that a user grips. Several exemplary WBV upper body exercises that the attachment facilitates include push-ups, pull-ups, and dips.

20230000710 · 2023-01-05 ·

A rehabilitation assisting apparatus has a main body, a waist assisting unit mounted above the main body, and two leg assisting units separately disposed side by side above the main body. Each of the leg assisting units is pivotally connected with the waist assisting unit. An upper rocking plate of the waist assisting unit can be driven to roll leftward and rightward to rehabilitate or train a waist of a user. A leg lifting bracket of each of the leg assisting unit can be driven to pitch upward and downward to rehabilitate or train a leg of the user.

Modular bed with vibration motor
11540961 · 2023-01-03 · ·

A modular bed includes a frame assembly, a plurality of elongated support units, and at least one vibration assembly including a rack, a stretchable web, and a vibration motor. The rack is detachably mounted on two selected adjacent ones of the elongated support units. The stretchable web has a central portion suspended across a lower opening of the rack. After the through bore is stretched to permit insertion of a positioning plate of the vibration motor, resilient retraction of the through bore causes a neck portion of the vibration motor to be trapped in the through bore with a motor body and the positioning plate of the vibration motor to be in abutting engagement with upper and lower surfaces of the stretchable web, respectively.
