Abstract:
The present teachings provide for an exercise device for exercising a joint and a limb. The device includes an actuator, a foot plate, a foot plate load cell, and a restrictor. The actuation member is rotatable about a rotation axis. The actuation member includes a first portion and a second portion that is movable in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. The foot plate is at a distal end of the second portion of the actuation member. The foot plate load cell is mounted to the foot plate and is configured to measure force exerted on the foot plate. The restrictor is configured to restrict movement of the second portion of the actuation member and the foot plate at the distal end thereof in the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis unless force exerted on the foot plate exceeds a predetermined force.
Abstract:
A relaxation device includes a base, a support structure connected to the base, a seating portion and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism is coupled to the seating portion and moves the seating portion in a manner replicating the gate of a walking horse. Persons with autism spectrum disorders and other conditions may utilize the device as a method of relaxation to lessen certain behaviors and characteristics associated with such conditions.
Abstract:
The dispensing chamber of the steamhead is mounted between the studs within the wall of a steam bath enclosure. The chamber is isolated from the environment and includes an elongated steam outlet extending outwardly from the chamber, through an opening in the wall. The rectangular outer edge of the outlet is flush with the interior surface of the wall and is the only portion of the chamber visible from inside the enclosure. The outer edge of the outlet is shaped to coordinate with the appearance of a linear drain. It also allows the steam to be dispensed over a wider area. The outlet has a steam flow capacity greater than the steam flow capacity of the inlet such that steam expands within the chamber as the velocity of the steam is reduced. Internal baffles reduce noise. Light sources may be associated with the chamber.
Abstract:
The sequential compression device for treatment and prophylaxis of deep vein thromboses includes a compression sock having a plurality of electromechanical units positioned along the calf muscle of a user's leg. Each of the electromechanical units includes a front housing component and a back housing component. The front housing component of the unit includes a compressor piston positioned in communicating relation with the user's calf muscle and the back housing component of the unit includes a magnet and a copper coil. The magnet is positioned in communicating relation with the compressor piston of the front housing component. Upon activation, the compressor piston selectively compresses the small saphenous vein to simulate the effect of the calf muscle during walking and promote the flow of blood back to the user's heart.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to devices, systems and methods for improving patient adherence with respect to HFCC therapy. A therapy system of the present disclosure may include a percussive pulsing therapy device configured for delivering pulsating or intermittent airflow to a patient device, such as a patient vest worn by a patient. The airflow delivered to the patient vest may have an air pressure and a frequency, each of which may be adjustable in some embodiments. A therapy system of the present disclosure may additionally include a controller, a database, and one or more sensors. The controller and/or one or more sensors may record therapy data for a therapy session. Based on the recorded therapy data, the system may provide encouragement, advice, motivation, and/or options or information to a user by way of skills training, goal setting, feedback, reinforcement, environmental prompts, social support, and/or other patient interventions.
Abstract:
A migraine helmet includes a hollow, spherical shell having an exterior surface, an interior surface that defines a head cavity, a face opening and a neck opening. On the interior surface of the shell are multiple, motorized massaging units positioned to engage a wearer's temples and the nape of the neck. A pair of gel packs are removably attached to the interior surface of the shell for cooling the head to further ease painful symptoms associated with migraine headaches. A separable chin strap depends from each of two lower edges of the shell for securing the helmet to the wearer.
Abstract:
A sheet for rehabilitation used together with a head-mounted display device (an HMD) that can display an image is disclosed. On the sheet for rehabilitation, markers functioning as labels for designating a position for displaying the image are provided.
Abstract:
A sit down shower spa includes a spa housing having a step-in door and a reclinable seat positioned within an inner spa housing. A basin formed within a wall of the spa housing can be used for toiletries or can be used with an insert used for scented stones and or a waterfall accessory. A headrest is configured within a wall of the spa housing for providing a cushioned support for the user's head. In use, warm water is sprayed within the spa housing for cleaning the user's body such that the spa continually drains water providing the user with a spa that works as a sit down shower.

Abstract:
A massage device is disclosed. The massage device comprises a hot and cold compress member, a circulating water tank, a heat conducting member, a water bag, a first circulating pump, a first circulating pipe, a fastening plate, a control body, and a second circulating pipe. It may prevent from rustiness or leakage and unstable structure, and further achieve the effect of quick heat dissipation.
