Abstract:
In a walking assistance device (10) that can transmit the power generated by a power generator (26, 28) to a femoral part of a user, a swing arm (60, 62) is attached to an output member of the power generator at a base end thereof, and is connected to a femoral support plate (68, 70) at a free end thereof via a pivot joint (64). The pivot joint includes a spherical projection (100) provided on the free end of the swing arm and a socket (112) provided on the femoral support plate, the socket defining a spherical recess (110) configured to receive the spherical projection to permit a tilting movement of the femoral support plate at least in two directions with respect to the free end of the swing arm. Thereby, the femoral support plate is enabled to accommodate the build and/or the movement of the femoral part of the user.
Abstract:
A motorized system for selectively moving a patient to reposition canaliths in the patient's inner ear to treat a balance disorder includes a base member, a patient support and a connecting assembly. The patient support is mounted on the connecting assembly and the connecting assembly is engaged with the base member. In one embodiment, the connecting assembly can include a substantially U-shaped loop member and the patient support is a chair. One motor rotates the patient support (and patient) about a first axis relative to the connecting assembly. Another motor rotates the connecting assembly (and patient support) relative to the base member about a second axis that is perpendicular to the first axis. With this arrangement, the motors move the patient support (and patient) at relatively high angular velocities, from one patient position to the next, in accordance with a predetermined protocol, such as the well-known Epley maneuver.
Abstract:
A castor might comprise a castor body for coupling the castor to an apparatus, at least one wheel coupled to the castor body, wherein said wheel is operable to rotate about a wheel axis. The castor body might be configured to swivel about a swivel axis which is substantially perpendicular to the wheel axis such as to rotate the orientation of the wheel with respect to the swivel axis. A locking means might be configured to adopt at least first state and a second state. In the first state, the locking means might be configured to allow swivelling motion of the castor body about the swivel axis and in the second state the locking means might be configured to inhibit the swivelling motion of the castor body about the swivel axis such that the orientation of the castor wheel is locked relative to the swivel axis.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a hand-held massager, including a housing, two movable sheets and a flexible massage sleeve covering the movable sheets, where a driving mechanism for controlling the two movable sheets to move oppositely and a linkage driving apparatus for driving the driving mechanism to move are arranged in an inner cavity of the housing; and the linkage driving apparatus drives the two movable sheets by the driving mechanism to swing back and forth in opposite directions, so that two opposite side walls on the flexible massage sleeve have a state of being close to each other and a state of being away from each other, thereby performing a pinch type massage on parts required to be massaged.
Abstract:
An orthopedic device for supporting a lower back of a user includes
a mechanical energy store, a pelvic element, an upper body element with a first force transmission element and an upper leg element with a second force transmission element.
The upper leg element is arranged on the pelvic element such that it can be swivelled about a first swivel axis,
the upper body element is movably arranged relative to the pelvic element, the first force transmission element can be engaged and disengaged with the second force transmission element by moving the upper body element relative to the pelvic element, and the mechanical energy store can be charged and discharged by swivelling the upper leg element relative to the upper body element when the first force transmission element is engaged with the second force transmission element.
Abstract:
A cane tip has a first roller and second roller, each roller having a semispherical exterior surface with a peripheral edge surface having a circular configuration. The peripheral edge surfaces are designed to engage with and roll over a support surface when the cane tip is being moved forwardly and rearwardly to reduce impact forces from being transmitted up the cane to the user's hand and arm. The spherical exterior surfaces are designed to engage with and roll over the support surface when the cane tip is moved from side to side while reducing impact forces from traveling up the cane to the hand and arm of a user of the cane tip.
