Patent number: 8939921Abstract: An apparatus for detecting hand force or hand pressure includes a longitudinally extending hollow body having an upper fixed end part, a lower fixed end part and a longitudinally extending spacer element that keeps the upper end part and the lower end part mutually spaced apart. The hollow body includes a flexible outer cover which connects the upper end part to the lower end part such that a closed inner space is formed within which the spacer element is also arranged. The outer cover is can be at least partly surrounded by a hand, and the inner space of the hollow body contains a gel, elastic multicomponent or liquid material which acts as a pressure transmitter. A pressure measuring apparatus extends at least partly in the inner space in the longitudinal direction to transmit the pressure from the outer cover via the pressure transmitter to the pressure measuring apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2012Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: Msys AGInventors: Bernhard Brinkhaus, Marco Schuurmans Stekhoven

Publication number: 20130046205Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for detecting and measuring pain felt by a person, said device comprising a pressure or force sensor (2), a hollow body (3) having an outer sleeve (3a) and an inner space (3b), and an electronic unit (5) for detecting the signal of the pressure or force sensor (2). The outer sleeve (3a) of the hollow body (3) is embodied in such a way that it can be at least partially surrounded by a hand, the inner space (3b) of the hollow body (3) is filled with a non-gaseous elastic material (4a) or a non-gaseous fluid (4b), and the pressure or force sensor (2) is arranged in such a way that the pressure of the elastic material (4a) or the fluid (4b) can be measured.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 24, 2010Publication date: February 21, 2013Applicant: MSYS AGInventors: Nils Schaffner, Gerd Folkers, Bernard Brinkhaus, Marco Schuurmans Stekhoven

Patent number: 7473214Abstract: A training device for training the pelvic floor muscles of a human, which can be externally placed on the human body and can be connected to feedback units that produce feedback signals, such as vibrations. The training device is, at least on one side, aligned with the pelvic floor, can be compressed and can be axially deformed on its sensor side. A pressure force sensor unit of the training device can be positioned during the operation in such a manner that the ischial tuberosities of the pelvic floor can be situated on both sides on the pressure sensor unit, and a gravitational force component passing through the pelvic floor acts upon the pelvic floor training device, making a precise measurement of the exertion on the pelvic floor possible.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2005Date of Patent: January 6, 2009Assignee: MSYS AGInventors: Marco Schuurmans Stekhoven, Bernhard Brinkhaus, Karel Noten, Hendrik Kwant, Splinter Justus Spierenburgh
