BED HAVING FEATURES FOR CONTROLLING HEATING OF A BED TO REDUCE HEALTH RISK OF A SLEEPER
Temperature sensors are configured to sense a temperature for the sleeper and transmit temperature readings. A controller is configured to receive temperature readings; and send to a heating subsystem instructions to initiate a warming process that raises a distal temperature of the sleeper more than a proximal temperature of the sleeper. The heating subsystem that may include a heating element that, when engaged, can raise the distal temperature of the sleeper more than the proximal temperature of the sleeper.
Housing Arrangement of a Flue Gas Filtration System Having an Integrated Option for Liquid Separation
Subject matter of the invention is a hose set intended for surgical interventions and having a device coupling feature, which includes an arrangement of a water trap and a filter in a single-piece housing.
Treadmill having sterilizer
A treadmill may include two separate left and right belts rotating around two sets of rollers, four legs having an adjustable height via air suspension to customize an inclination of the treadmill, a thermoelectric assembly, a fragrance assembly having a rotating fragrance cartridge to emit various smells toward a user of the treadmill, a display on which exercise programs are played, and an attachment module having a dispensing tray on which treats are dispensed. A handle of the treadmill may have a sensor to sense a height and front-rear position, and a belt divider provided between the left and right belts may have position or proximity sensors to sense a left-right position. An inclination of the treadmill may be automatically adjusted according to positions detected by the sensors, and the fragrance assembly, attachment module, and inclination may be automatically operated in accordance with an exercise program played on the display.
Therapeutic vaporizer
A therapeutic vaporizer inhalation bag attachment system with an integrated valve is disclosed. The attachment system includes a body having a lumen extending between the two openings of the body, a bag coupling, and a valve positioned within the lumen. A method of using the inhalation bag attachment system is also disclosed.

Essential oil diffusion mechanism and aromatherapy device
An essential oil diffusion mechanism, including: a housing having an accommodation chamber; and a separator that divides the accommodation chamber into an upper chamber and a lower chamber and includes a horizontal partition plate and vertical partition plates. The horizontal partition plate defines at least one interconnecting hole. An upper surface of each vertical partition plate is spaced apart from a chamber wall of the upper chamber to form an upper interconnecting aperture. Each vertical partition plate defines an interconnecting reflux hole. A lower surface of each baffling plate is spaced apart from the horizontal partition plate to form a lower interconnecting aperture. The interconnecting hole, the upper interconnecting aperture, the lower interconnecting aperture, and the air outlet are sequentially arranged in communication to form an air outlet channel. The upper interconnecting aperture, the reflux hole, and the interconnecting hole are sequentially arranged in communication to form a reflux channel.
AUTOMATING VENTILATION USING AN AIRBAG
Apparatus is disclosed for ventilation using an airbag, which may also be operable manually. The apparatus comprises: means providing or penetrable to form an aperture in the airbag; retractable means provided separately from the airbag, for extending in the airbag; fixing means for fixing, by an operator, an end of the retractable means to the airbag via the aperture; actuation means, for repeatedly retracting the retractable means at least partially through the aperture in the airbag to collapse the airbag, and for enabling expansion of the airbag to an expanded state; and connecting means for connecting the actuation means to the airbag and for preventing environment egress of gas from within the airbag between the aperture and the actuation means.
Virtual reality augmented massage therapy system and method
A virtual reality augmented massage therapy system and method is disclosed. Using this system taps into all of the key senses that people use to evaluate their surroundings, which in turn helps them to relax and feel comfortable. Simply stated, the more stimulus inputs a person's brain receives to determine its presence in an environment, the more immersed the person will become in the generated environment.
Portable Lung Assist Device
The present invention relates to a portable lung assist device. In one embodiment, the portable lung assist device comprises an integrated oxygenator, blood pump, and cannula. In one embodiment, the portable lung assist device of the present invention does not require an oxygen tank, but instead can provide oxygen to a subject's blood from ambient air. In one embodiment, at least a portion of the portable lung assist device, for example the cannula can be implantable. In one embodiment, the cannula of the device of the present invention can be inserted in to the subject's pulmonary artery. A method for providing portable lung assistance is also described.
Smoking device
Apparatus and methods are described for use with a portion of plant material that includes at least one active ingredient. A vaporizing unit includes a heating element configured to heat the plant material, and a sensor configured to detect an indication of airflow rate through the vaporizing unit. Control circuitry is configured to receive an indication of the airflow rate through the vaporizing unit, and, in response thereto, to determine a smoking profile that is desired by the user. The control circuitry drives the heating element to vaporize the active ingredient of the plant material by heating the plant material according to the determined smoking profile. The control circuitry dynamically updates the smoking profile in response to changes in airflow rate over the course of a smoking session. Other applications are also described.
