Abstract:
Systems and methods for neuromodulation of a female patient suffering from a pelvic condition, such as incontinence, are disclosed. A mechanical stimulus such as pressure, tension, traction, friction, or vibration for example can be applied to one, two, or more clitoral structures sufficient to cause a physiologic stimulus or inhibition, such as neuromodulation to treat or prevent the pelvic condition.
Abstract:
A skin cleansing apparatus comprising a main housing, a motor drive mechanism inside the main housing and comprising a motor, a handgrip portion on the main housing and a head portion projecting from the main housing, the head portion comprising a cleansing head which is to be driven by the motor to perform skin cleansing during operation; wherein the cleansing head comprising a skin contact portion of a hydrophilic foamed material such as foamed hydrophilic polyurethane.
Abstract:
A physical exercise apparatus comprising a hollow cylindrical device having first and second end regions, said first and second end regions being closable with closure means, at least one closure means being removable from the respective end region. The apparatus may have an outer contact surface having material of different densities over the contact surface.
Abstract:
A sexual stimulator for providing sexual stimulation to a user comprises a housing (1), a moving part (7) housed within the housing so as to cause motion of at least part of the housing (1) so as, in use, to provide a user with sexual stimulation, and a control circuit (8) for the moving part in which the control circuit (8) is arranged so as to control the strength of the motion caused by the moving part (7), the control circuit being arranged so that, at a first moment of time, the control circuit (8) causes the moving part (7) to commence the motion at a first strength, and then causes the strength of the motion to increase over a first period of time in which the first strength is insufficient to wake a user. Thus, a user can be gently roused from sleep such that sexual stimulation can take place before the moment of waking, with a user waking up sexually stimulated.
Abstract:
Ozone generator, especially for massage tubs, consists of a case provided with electric supply and accommodating a high voltage transformer coupled by means of cables with an ozone producing element - a discharge electrode or UV discharge lamp - located in the air stream. The ozone producing element is accommodated in an air duct outside the case (1), the internal space of the duct being separated from the internal space of case (1) by a waterproof partition wall.
Abstract:
A structure for realizing basins provided with accessory technological systems, in particular for realizing water massage basins or above-ground swimming pools, comprising lateral walls (2) realized in a hollow body, which contain said accessory technological systems (3), and at least one sealing water-proof membrane (4), connected in a removable manner to said lateral walls (2).
Abstract:
A control system for controlling an exoskeleton worn by a user and having one or more actuators associated with various body members of the exoskeleton each corresponding to a body part of the user. The control system comprises a user interface for receiving input data indicative of a desired movement sequence, a memory component for storing pre-programmed movement data indicative of one or more sequential instructions required to effect the movement sequence, each instruction being associated with relative actuator movements for performing the instruction, and an actuator controller for moving the one or more actuators according to the relative actuator movements for each instruction. The control system also comprises a terrain sub-system for adjusting the actuator movements upon detection of a change in terrain slope and a balance control sub-system for periodically adjusting the balance of the exoskeleton during relative movement of the one or more actuators.
