MASSAGE SYSTEM
A massage system for a seat having a seat surface. At least one plane is defined for the seat, which plane is spanned by a longitudinal axis and a vertical axis of the seat. The at least one plane separates a first side and a second side of the seat from one another and intersects the seat. At least one massage element is arranged in at least one component of the seat. The at least one massage element has at least one active surface which is arranged on at least one of the two sides of the seat. The at least one active surface of the at least one massage element executes at least one stroke movement which is oriented parallel, downwards, and/or upwards at least partially in the direction of the at least one plane, relative to the seat surface
Motion assistant apparatus
A motion assistance apparatus includes a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of a user, a power transmitting frame configured to rotate relative to the proximal support, a driving frame connected to the power transmitting frame and configured to enclose at least a portion of a distal part of the user, a reinforcement belt attached to a front surface of the driving frame, a rear belt connected to the driving frame or the reinforcement belt and configured to support a rear surface of the distal part of the user, and a front belt with a central portion spaced apart from the driving frame, the front belt provided between the driving frame and the rear belt and configured to support a front surface of the distal part of the user.
Chair-type massager
An armrest portion of a chair-type massager includes a side wall disposed generally upright at either of the left and right sides of a seat portion. An air bag configured to press the thighs of a treated person is provided on a seat side face which is the side face of the armrest portion facing the seat portion along the left-right axis. The seat side face includes a side face of the side wall facing the seat portion and an installation face. The installation face, at least when the air bag is inflated, inclines the further to the seat portion side along the left-right axis the higher up. At least part of the air bag is provided on the installation face.
AUTOMATIC MASSAGE PORTABLE MASSAGE TABLE
An automatic massage portable massage table, and belongs to the technical field of massage apparatuses. The automatic massage portable massage table includes a rigid planner surface, a cushioned pad, an upholstery cover, table legs, long leg supports, short leg supports, a cable system, a headrest cradle, a headrest cushion, and a plurality of airbags. According to the automatic massage portable massage table of the present disclosure, a user can command a circuit board to supply power to an air pump and a plurality of air valves through buttons of a controller. After being powered on, the air pump supplies air to the air valves. Meanwhile, the circuit board controls, according to a pre-stored program, the air valves to achieve air supply and air release, thus controlling the airbags to be inflated and deflated.
AIRBAG TYPE MASSAGE TABLE
The present disclosure relates to an airbag type massage table, and belongs to the technical field of massage apparatuses, including a rigid planner surface, a table top, an upholstery cover, a headrest cushion, and a plurality of airbags. A user can lay in supine or prone position on the table top of the airbag type massage table of the present disclosure. A circuit board is instructed by means of buttons of a controller. The circuit board supplies power to an air pump Air pumps supply air to air valves. Meanwhile, the circuit board controls the opening, closing and air release of the air valves, thus controlling the airbags to be inflated, held and deflated.
SYSTEM AND APPARATUS TO APPLY VIBRATION, THERMAL AND COMPRESSIVE THERAPY
A therapeutic device for applying vibration, thermal and compressive therapy is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the device has a top layer and a bottom layer adapted to contact a body surface of a user. The device further includes a therapeutic element disposed between the top layer and the bottom layer, the therapeutic element including a vibration component, a thermal component, and a compression component, where, upon activation of the therapeutic element: (i) the vibration component applies a vibration force, (ii) the thermal component applies a thermal therapy, and (iii) the compression component applies a compressive force.
Power assist suit
A power assist suit includes a harness worn at least around hips of a wearer, an assist unit, a power unit, and a bearing roller. The assist unit includes an arm and a thigh-worn part. A rail is provided at a part of the arm in a longitudinal direction. The rail includes channel-shaped parts extending along the longitudinal direction. The thigh-worn part is connected to sliding movable parts or integrated with at least a portion of the sliding movable parts. The bearing roller is disposed between each of the channel-shaped parts in the rail and each of inner wall surfaces of the sliding movable parts facing the respective channel-shaped parts.
Torque pattern adjustment apparatus and method for adjusting torque pattern using the same
An torque pattern adjustment apparatus including a display configured to display a first torque pattern corresponding to a gait cycle, and a generator configured to generate a second torque pattern by adjusting at least a portion of the first torque pattern in response to a reception of an input, and a torque pattern adjustment method using the same may be provided. The first torque pattern may be applied to a joint of a user.
Walking assistant device deformable based on thigh shape
A walking assistance device deformable based on a thigh shape includes a hip joint actuator, an upper thigh frame connected to the hip joint actuator and configured to receive power from the hip joint actuator and rotate about a first axis and rotate about a second axis intersecting the first axis, a motion frame connected to the upper thigh frame, the motion frame including a plurality of segment frames configured to rotate relative to each other, and a lower thigh frame connected to the motion frame.
Structural integration and enhanced control of functional electrical stimulation in an exoskeleton device
An integrated functional electrical stimulation (FES) system includes a component of a mobility assistance device, and an FES system mounted within the component.
