Abstract:
A neuromuscular therapy device and method is provided. The neuromuscular therapy device includes a top unit including a pair of square pyramidal bodies separated by a central valley. Each of the pair of square pyramidal bodies includes a top peak with vertices that are smoothly radiused. The neuromuscular therapy device may also include a base unit including a hollowed top central portion configured to provide a seat within which the top unit is secured.
Abstract:
An exercise belt 10 to be worn around the waist of a user has a case 14 holding a control switch S1, a switch actuator 22, a battery 16, a vibrator 20, and a motor 18 connected to the vibrator 20 to cause the vibrator 20 to vibrate upon energization of the motor 18 by the battery 16 when the control switch S1 changes states. A light emitting device 28 is attached to the case 14 and positioned to be observed when the belt 10 is worn around the waist of a user. A strap 12 has one end attached to one end of the case 14 and another end connected to the switch actuator 22. This strap 12 is adjustable to fit snugly around the waist of a user, with expansion of the user's waist moving the switch actuator 22 to change the state of the control switch S1, energizing the motor 18, vibrator 20, and light emitting device 28.

Abstract:
A circuit for driving gas discharge lamps has a bandpass filter coupled between the output of the inverter and the inverter control. The bandpass filter provides protection against the diode operation of the gas discharge lamps. The bandpass filter is composed of a capacitor and the permeance inductance of a transformer.
Abstract:
A laryngeal blade assembly consisting of a metallic blade or spatula and two light assemblies that are selectively mounted on the blade. One light assembly has a fiber optic tube and a base block that with the blade will fit a fiber optic handle. The other light assembly has an incandescent bulb in the end of the light tube and a base block that with the blade fits an incandescent handle.
