    摘要: An integrated valve and manifold assembly includes a water valve configured to control water flow from one or two valve outlets. At least one of the outlets is coupled to a manifold. In some examples, the manifold is a dual-extrusion manifold having at least one air channel and at least one water conduit, and the water valve has a pair of air channels attached to a periphery of the water valve and configured to couple to the manifold air channels. In examples wherein at least one of the manifolds is a dual-extrusion manifold, a top portion of the assembly includes an air valve configured to control flow of air to air channel(s) of the dual-extrusion manifold. In other examples, the assembly includes a one-outlet or two-outlet water valve configured to couple to water manifolds, with no attached air channels or air valves.

    摘要: Methods of treating viral infections. At least one example embodiment is a method including: measuring a core temperature of a human patient; testing the human for the presence of a virus that causes disease; responsive to the human having both fever and presence of the virus, submerging at least a trunk and legs of the human in water comprising a surfactant, the human at least partially submerged in the water for a treatment period of at least three hours; and controlling a temperature of the water during the treatment period.

    摘要: The present invention provides a device that can generate a pulsatile flow or intermittent flow from a continuously flowing of the water tap by pressure of the water tap without using an electrical activation part. The device for generating a pulsatile fluid or intermittent fluid comprises an injection mechanism 110 for injecting fluid, which is a liquid or gas; an air cavity 120 which includes an airtight space, a draining portion 150 disposed in the lower part; an air intake ventilation hole 141 connected to the ventilation pass 140. The injection point of the injection mechanism 110 is around the air intake ventilation hole 141, and the injected flow is formed so that a part of the injected flow runs downward for covering the surface of the side wall in which the air intake ventilation hole 141 is included. The air intake ventilation hole 141 is partially covered or brushed by the running flow, so the fluctuation rhythm of the air blow is generated, wherein the temporary air pressure decrease in the air cavity 120 given by the downward flowing of the injected flow and temporary air pressure recovery in the air cavity 120 given by the air blowing form the outer air are repeatedly. Therefore, the pulsatile flow or the intermittent flow is generated.

    摘要: A liner for use with a basin to contain a liquid features a plurality of bodies of flexible plastic. Portions of an inner face of a first body of flexible plastic are joined to corresponding portions of an inner face of a second body of flexible plastic, through which a plurality of openings are formed, to provide a multi-layer body of flexible plastic. Other portions of the inner face of the first body of flexible plastic are not joined to corresponding other portions of the inner face of the second body of flexible plastic, defining an air conduit between the first body of flexible plastic and the second body of flexible plastic for guiding pressurized air substantially from an air discharge apparatus.

    摘要: A portable, personal therapy chamber for provision of infrared radiation therapy. The therapy chamber includes a pair of telescopically positionable cabins that are lightweight and easily portable by a single user. The therapy chamber is configured for use by a single person lying generally prone on a surface. The cabins are disposed to overlie the user and include a plurality of infrared radiation elements that direct infrared energy toward the user's body. When using the therapy chamber, the user's head extends from an open end of the cabin. A facial treatment fixture is integrated with the cabin to be extendable longitudinally from a terminal end thereof and to overlie the user's face/head. The therapy chamber can be configured to provide mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy in addition to infrared therapy.
