摘要:
An example orthotic is described which may include a cushioning first layer and a shell layer. The shell layer may be configured to extend longitudinally from at least the talus-navicular joint to the medial cuneiform-first metatarsal joint and laterally under at least the medial cuneiform bone when the orthotic is in use. The shell layer may be configured to receive a removable insert that alters an amount of arch support provided by the orthotic. A set of inserts may be provided to allow the example orthotic to be customized based on user support preferences.

A removable full length insole for insertion into open style footwear, includes a forefoot portion, a heel portion and a mid-foot portion connecting together the forefoot portion and the heel portion; a uniform thickness cushioning layer (18) of a resilient material extending through the forefoot portion, heel portion and mid-foot portion; a substantially dome shaped pillow (20,22) extending down from the cushioning layer at the forefoot portion and heel portion; and an arrangement (28) for maintaining the insole in position in the footwear during a gait.
摘要:
Ectoparasites, such as fleas, ticks, mites and lice, are removed from a human or animal host after applying a fluid composition that causes the temperature of the treated area to become higher or lower than normal. In one embodiment, treatment is effected by applying a composition that releases heat when contacted with water. The elevated or decreased temperature immobilizes the parasites and facilitates their mechanical removal, such as by combing.
摘要:
The invention encompasses oil-in-water type emulsion formulations having decreased skin rub-in times, comprising a nonaqueous phase, an aqueous phase and an oil-in-water emulsifier, which emulsion formulation also contains a water-in-oil emulsifier.
摘要:
A soft, tacky polysiloxane elastomer characterized as having: a tackiness of 10-450 grams as determined by a polyken probe tack tester or 0-10 cm (0-4 inches) as determined by a rolling ball tack tester and a tensile strength of 0.14-5.52 mega Pascals (20-800 pounds/square inch), a minimum elongation of 250-1100 percent and a tear strength of 0.88-35.2 kN/m (5-200 pounds/square inch). The soft, tacky elastomer can be made into various cushioning devices, with or without a top cover. Representative cushioning devices include an arch support pad, a metatarsal pad, a heel cushion, a sheet padding, a full-length insole, a three quarter length insole, a half insole, a toe-crest pad, a heel liner, an elbow pad, a corn pad, a callus pad, a blister pad, a bunion pad or a toe pad.
