Abstract:
A power transmission device may include a first power transmission unit configured to connect to an input portion and to receive a power from the input portion, a second power transmission unit configured to deliver the power to an output portion, and a connecting unit configured to connect the first power transmission unit and the second power transmission unit, and to deliver a pressure of a transfer fluid occurring due to the first power transmission unit to the second power transmission unit.
Abstract:
A massage head including a casing forming an internal chamber defined by a back wall, two lateral walls, and two transverse walls, and open on its surface opposite to the back wall, and having a skinfold formed therein when the head is applied to a patient's skin. The head is formed of two modules provided with means capable of enabling to reversibly fasten them to each other. Each of the modules integrates a functional element defining one of the transverse walls of the internal chamber.
Abstract:
A walking training apparatus includes display means disposed in front of a walking trainee, first image capturing means for taking an image of the walking trainee from a viewpoint located above the walking trainee, and display control means for controlling the display means so that a target landing point together with an image of the walking trainee taken by the first image capturing means is displayed on a display screen of the display means, the target landing point being a point on which the walking trainee should land his/her foot in a next step. The display control means controls the display means so that a center line in addition to the target landing point of the foot are displayed on the display screen of the display means, the center line indicating a center position in a left/right direction of the walking trainee.
Abstract:
A motion assistance apparatus including a fixing module attached to a user, a driving module fixed to the fixing module to generate rotation power, a supporting module configured to support a portion of a body of the user and driven by the driving module, a sensor configured to measure a width of the fixing module, and a controller configured to adjust the rotation power of the driving module based on the measured width.
Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to a control method of a motion assistance apparatus including a fixing module attached to a user, a driving module fixed to the fixing module to generate rotation power, a supporting module configured to support a portion of a body of the user and driven by the driving module, a force sensor configured to measure a magnitude of force applied to the fixing module, and a controller configured to control the driving module, the method including generating, by the driving module, a driving torque to drive the supporting module, measuring a direction and a magnitude of force indicated by the force sensor, calculating a compensation torque to minimize the measured magnitude of force, and driving the driving module by adding the compensation torque to the driving torque.
Abstract:
A CPR system includes a retention structure to retain the patient's body, and a compression mechanism to perform CPR compressions to the patient's chest. The CPR system further includes a processor to control the compression mechanism, and thus the performance of the CPR compressions. In embodiments, the CPR system compresses at a rate or frequency that is purposely sub-optimal for circulation at least some of the time, and especially when it is detected that the patient has regained consciousness. An advantage can be that the patient may thus faint again, and therefore perceive less of the unpleasant experience of the mechanical chest compressions that the CPR system continues to perform on them as it preserves them alive.
Abstract:
A robotic device for operation in association with an appendage of a user, wherein the appendage of the user has an endpoint, the robotic device including: a base; and a robotic arm attached to the base and having an endpoint, the robotic arm having at least two active degrees of freedom relative to the base and being configured so that when the base is appropriately positioned relative to a user, the reference frame of the robotic device is oriented generally similarly to the reference frame of the user and motions of the endpoint of the appendage of the user are mimicked by motions of the endpoint of the robotic arm.
Abstract:
“CONSTRUCTIVE DISPOSITION INTRODUCED IN PHYSIOTHERAPY ELECTROMECHANICAL APPARATUS OF LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE FOR UPPER LIMBS,” more precisely it is electromechanical device (1) of the type used in the treatment of lymphedema or other similar diseases; the said apparatus (1) provides associated mechanisms, with the electromechanical module (M1) formed by a printed circuit board (PCI) and idealized for actuating the mechanical module (M2), which in turn imposes movement to a rod (B), which is connected to the support platform (PL) of the upper member; the said platform (PL) promotes angular and repetitive motion of the upper limb; the said electromechanical mechanism (M1) and mechanism (M2) to be packed in compact fairing (2) of rectangular prism shape and configured by a receptacle (2A) of low height (x), width (y) and length (z) in which flat bottom (2a1) is installed the printed circuit board (PCI), which is connected to a digital control panel (3) controller of all the functions of the apparatus (1), wherein the said panel (3) is disposed in cutout (2b1) carried on one of the side walls (2b) of the receptacle (2A), whereas the mechanical module (M2) formed by the gearmotor (4) that drives the eccentric shaft system (5), which imposes rotating movements to the rod (B); the said receptacle (2A) provides in the top wall (2c) recess (2c1) for centralized installation of the mechanical module (M2) and thus fixing of the rod (B) in an orthogonal branch (7) extending from the lower face of the platform (PL); assembly of the modules (M1) and (M2) in the fairing (2) configure a spatial area (AE) wide and centered to the angular movement of the support platform (PL) of the upper member.
Abstract:
A cosmetic device includes a bubble generator configured to generate bubbles, a cosmetic unit configured to exert a cosmetic effect on a skin, and a motor configured to drive at least the cosmetic unit. The bubble generator includes an agitating and mixing mechanism configured to agitate a liquid foaming agent and mix the agitated liquid foaming agent with air.
