The present disclosure describes a sexual aid device for the stimulation of male genitalia and the collection of semen. Upon manufacture, the sexual aid device includes an uninflated inner chamber, an elongated extension extending from the inner chamber, and an inflation passage in fluid communication with the inner chamber for subsequent inflation of the device. Prior to inflation and use, the elongated extension is inserted into the inner chamber, where upon inflation the elongated extension forms an internal passageway that is isolated from the inner chamber and arranged to accommodate a user's penis. Once inflated, the inflation passage is sealed such that the air or other gases are captured in the inner chamber and the inner chamber remains inflated. After use, the passageway captures any ejaculated semen. The device is deflated in a manner that secures any semen within the device for subsequent retrieval for medical use or disposal.

A rehabilitation glove based on a bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure, including five bidirectional drivers and a cotton glove. The drivers are fixed to a back of the glove through hook and loop fasteners. Each driver includes a hollow buckling air bag in a continuous bent state, a middle guide layer in a continuous bent state and a hollow stretching air bag. The buckling air bag and the middle guide layer are symmetrically arranged, and the stretching air bag in a straightened state is arranged below the middle guide layer. A novel bidirectional driver of a honeycomb imitating structure is provided, which may provide a patient with rehabilitation training in two degrees of freedom: buckling and stretching. A control algorithm of the bidirectional driver is further provided to perform force control output for the driver, which may better help the patient recover hand functions.

A method for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes supplying an inflation gas at an operative pressure to an inflation actuated soft gripper device to change form from an undeployed state to a deployed grip state that accommodates and grips a human torso. The inflation actuated soft gripper device includes a first inflatable gripper arm having a first distal end and a second inflatable gripper arm having a second distal end. The first distal end and the second distal end approach one another from the undeployed state to the deployed grip state. The first and second distal ends are spaced apart from one another further in the undeployed state than in the deployed grip state. An actuator power and a CPR control signal are delivered to a CPR pressure application device to cyclically extend and retract a pressure applicator along an axis in alignment with a sternum of the human torso.

A chair is disclosed for providing water and air adjustable massage. The massage chair includes a surface that is easy to clean, and water-filled rollers within the chair to apply a massaging effect to the body of the user thereon. Each water-filled roller incorporates a foam inner roller that is surrounded by either a cylindrical water-filled wrap or water-filled inserts. The massage chair incorporates a leg section to perform a percussive and vibrating massage on the legs of the user thereon. The massage chair has the ability to recline and to apply heat and/or cooling to the user thereon. The massage chair incorporates auto-sensing controls, massage pattern software, and Cloud Control Software that enables the owner in a commercial environment to establish the time for use, frequency, and price for the massage session.

Under the control of a controller, a drive mechanism portion moves a massaging member and an ascent-descent mechanism moves up and down the massaging member together with the entire drive mechanism portion. During an ordinary kneading massage, the massaging member performs a relative motion to describe a reference locus in the shape of a closed curve. The controller controls to make the massaging member perform a relative reciprocating movement within a partial movement range corresponding to a partial segment of the reference locus and simultaneously controls to make the ascent-descent mechanism move the drive mechanism portion up and down. The relative reciprocating movement of the massaging member along the partial segment of the reference locus and the up-down movement of the entire drive mechanism portion are combined together to produce a new motion of the massaging member describing a locus different from the reference locus.

A therapy wrap for treatment of at least a portion of an animate body having improved kink resistance. The therapy wrap may be selectively reinforced for improved kink resistance in only a portion of the wrap. The reinforcement may decrease the kink radius. The wrap may include a kink reducer in all or only a selected kink-prone region. The kink reducer may be selectively configured attachment points or spot welds. The therapy wrap may include a reinforcement layer of one or more discrete reinforcement members. The wrap may be formed by pre-tensioning the material layers while forming the fluid bladder and/or gas pressure bladder. The therapy wrap may be adapted to compensate for conditions that normally cause kinking of the wrap or buckling of the fluidic channels. Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing the wrap and methods of administering a temperature-controlled treatment to an anatomical body part.

A body harness system includes a body harness having a first portion for providing resting position to a user. The body harness includes a plurality of belts with offset buckles connected to the body of the first portion, for supporting body of the user. A first pair of shoulder straps are connected at a first end and an undercarriage support is connected at a second end of the first portion. An abdominal support is connected to the undercarriage support via abdominal support connection straps. The undercarriage support runs from the second end of the first portion to the abdominal support, for supporting the user's groin area. The body harness system includes an elastic cord support system connected to one or more attachment rings, for controlling at least one of initial bodyweight offset, amount of bodyweight resistance, and maximum allowable downward stop for each user.

An artificial muscle chair device includes a plurality of artificial muscles embedded in a chair. Each artificial muscle includes a housing having an electrode region and an expandable fluid region. A first electrode and a second electrode each disposed in the electrode region of the housing. The artificial muscle chair device further includes a dielectric fluid disposed within the housing. The first and second electrodes electrostatically attract, inflating the expandable fluid region with dielectric fluid and thereby applying selective pressure to an outer surface of the chair.

A corporeal compression system for use in applying compression to a patient positioned upon a supporting surface has an overlay, and a gas supply system. The overlay includes flexible sheet material that is arranged into at least two layers to define an internal region therebetween, an inlet orifice that opens into the internal region, and restraints that, in use, locate and restrain edge portions of the flexible sheet material. The layers are repositionable with respect to each other such that the sheet material can assume a deflated state in which the volume of the internal region is a minimum In use of the corporeal compression system, the flexible sheet material of the overlay is draped over the patient, the flexible sheet material is restrained relative to the support surface by the restraints, and the gas supply system is operable to deliver gas to increase the volume of the internal region from the deflated state and establish an elevated pressure within the internal region, thereby compressing the patient between the posterior layer of the overlay and the supporting surface.

The invention relates to an adult choke pleasure enhancement adjustable pressure cuff device. Participants can engage in solo autoerotic asphyxiation (AEA) without accidentally suffocating to death. The adjustable cuff is inflatable and sized to encompass a participant's neck and has a timed safety release function. The participant can apply the device at default setting to fit snugly, but not impede blood flow. The participant can inflate the device to the desired level of pressure that would remain at that setting at participant's discretion. They can control what happens and for how long, as long as the participant is not incapacitated. However, if at any time, the controls/settings are not engaged by the participant, the device would automatically default to zero pressure after a set time. The use of the device therefore allows a participant to safely engage in solo AEA without risking injury or death.
