Abstract: The present invention discloses a deep vein thrombosis (“DVT”) device that is portable, tubeless, and battery-operated, which ensures that the patient will have maximum mobility during recovery. The DVT device provides a pneumatically controlled bladder portion, which is actuated by an electronically controlled air pump, where the pump/bladder combination is enclosed in a “pocket” of a wrap or cuff during use. All pump, battery, and control components are protectively housed in a plastic case that is permanently attached to the bladder portion. Once the pump/bladder combination is placed in the “pocket” the wrap or cuff will be sealed. The wraps or cuffs are single use, disposable garments designed to provide an absorbent barrier during use, where the bladder portion and air pump remain clean during use and can be reused by the patient or hospital staff. Tabs or extensions may be used to secure the pump/bladder combination after insertion into the “pocket” of the wrap or cuff.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a waffle iron or cooking press that enables a user to cook a waffle and pancake simultaneously. This waffle iron or cooking press may include a lid and a base, where the base has a thicker profile that offers a reservoir to hold and cook the hybrid waffle-pancake. An insulated lid handle and insulated base handle are designed to enable a user to open, close, and flip the waffle iron during the cooking process. A hinge mechanism may connect the lid to the base. This mechanism keeps the lid and base attached in the closed position and when the user opens the waffle iron, but also enables the user to detach the lid from the base. The lid and base each include complementary textured cooking surfaces and flat cooking surfaces.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for a combined bottle and towel holder that can be removably attached to a variety of support structures such as are extant in an exercise or fitness room; and slip-resistant releasably self-adhering straps for the removable attachment. A bottle holding portion is an open topped receptacle, and a towel holding portion is an upward opening hook on the receptacle sidewall, optionally movably located relative to the location of the receptacle attachment to the support structure. The holder is removably attachable to a frame member in a way that substantially vertically orients the longitudinal axis of the receptacle, wherein the frame member is a bar of no particular cross-sectional shape, and is preferably upstanding but is oriented such that the bar's long axis is vertical, horizontal or at an angle between horizontal and vertical. The holder is also removably attachable to a vertical surface such as a wall.
