User Attachment for Gait and Balance Rehabilitation Apparatus
A user attachment for an apparatus for gait rehabilitation providing a possibility for a user to receive support during walking in a walking direction. A harness is attached to the body of the user and can be connected to a weight supporting device. This connection is a driven attachment arm attached at the weight supporting device which can be detachably connected with the harness. The driven attachment arm is connected via a double parallelogram unit with the harness attachment element. A guiding attachment arm can be connected with the weight supporting device and can be detachably connected with the harness attachment element for a rotative connection of the driven attachment arm with the guiding attachment arm.
WEARABLE TORSO SUPPORT DEVICE
A wearable torso support device, including a main body to removably connect around a pelvis of a user, including a front section to receive and support a stomach of the user thereon, a rear section disposed on at least a portion of each end of the front section to support at least a portion of a back of the user, and a plurality of body fasteners removably connected to at least a portion of at least one of the front section and the rear section, and a shoulder strap assembly to suspend the main body from shoulders of the user while being worn, the shoulder strap assembly including a first shoulder strap disposed on at least a portion of the main body to removably connect to at least one of the plurality of body fasteners and is adjustable in length based on a movement of the first shoulder strap, and a second shoulder strap disposed on at least a portion of the main body to removably connect to another at least one of the plurality of body fasteners and is adjustable in length based on a movement of the second shoulder strap.
Interface system in an exoskeleton
An interface system in an exoskeleton includes a base support, a strap assembly, and posterior strut. The posterior strut has a vertical member defining a lower end connecting to the base support, and an upper end connecting to first and second transverse members extending in opposed directions from the vertical member. The first and second transverse members connect to the strap assembly. The interface system is adapted to receive and support an assistive device adapted to augment a user's performance and mitigate repetitive strain injuries.
Leg Actuation Apparatus and Gait Rehabilitation Apparatus
A leg actuation apparatus includes two driven axes, wherein onto each one a distal parallelogram mechanism is attached with one connector being attached in a torque proof manner, wherein the other end of the arm being rotatably connected to an intermediate axis. One proximal parallelogram mechanism is rotatably attached at each intermediate axis and at transfer axes connected to the leg attachment elements to be attached to the upper and lower leg of a user. The distal ends of the lower parallelogram mechanism and the distal ends of the upper parallelogram mechanism can freely glide along the respective first and second driven axis.
Cable-Based Body-Weight Support
An overhead support system includes a plurality of posts; a plurality of beams configured to connect to and span between the posts; a counterbalance system configured to be attached to the plurality of posts; a harness configured to be worn by and support a patient; a plurality of pulleys configured to be disposed on the plurality of posts; a plurality of cables, each cable including a first end configured to be operatively connected to the harness and a second end configured to be operatively connected to a counterbalance system, each cable passing over one of the pulleys; and a mechanism configured to selectively adjust a tension in at least one of the plurality of cables to support some or all of the weight of the patient. The counterbalance system compensates to maintain support while the patient is located between the posts and the harness is lower than the pulleys.
ADJUSTABLE MOUNTS FOR PHALLIC DEVICES
A mount apparatus for phallic devices comprising a plate, an attachment mechanism, and openings disposed in plate, wherein sliding mounts are disposed in openings, and wherein sliding mounts comprise connection points.
DEVICE FOR NON-INVASIVE NEURO-STIMULATION BY MEANS OF MULTICHANNEL BURSTS
A device is provided for the stimulation of neurons that includes a non-invasive stimulation unit to generate stimuli in multiple stimulation channels, where the stimulation unit stimulates a neuron population in the brain and/or spinal cord of a patient in different locations for each of the stimulation channels. Moreover, the device includes a control unit that controls the stimulation unit to generate repetitive bursts in each of the stimulation channels, where each of the bursts includes multiple stimuli and is designed so that they do not reset the phase of the neuronal activity of the respective stimulated neurons.
PHYSICAL THERAPY AND WALKER APPARATUS
An apparatus is disclosed comprising an upper frame and a lower frame together connected by at least one lifting means, wherein the lower frame comprises two sidebars connected at opposite ends of a lower crossbar to form a “U” shape, wherein the upper frame comprises two handrails, each having a free end and an attachment end, wherein the attachment end of each handrail is rotatably connected to an upper crossbar, and the lifting means are disposed between the lower crossbar and upper crossbar such that the upper frame experiences a force exerted by the lifting means when the handrails parallel to a plane formed by the lower frame. In another embodiment, the apparatus is a walker having a harness in removable communication with the handrails.
System and method for facilitating mutual penile stimulation
A system and method for a sexual aid device having a sheath in which to dispose the penis of the first and second users and an apparatus to affix the sheath around the penis of the first user to prevent it from sliding off, a ring that may be placed around the genitals, and a garment which is attached to the sheath and/or ring and placed around the waist, legs, or other body part.
Wearable device and operation method of the wearable device
A wearable device is disclosed. The wearable device may process a state variable defined based on motion information of a user, determine an interactive mode of the wearable device based on a gain associated with a magnitude of a torque of the wearable device, select a motion type from among motion types of the determined interactive mode based on a gait parameter of the user, determine a control factor for the torque based on the selected motion type, and generate the torque based on the processed state variable, the gain, and the determined control factor.
