Abstract: A frame assembly for a chair assembly includes a base assembly, a joint assembly, and a seat assembly. The base assembly includes a first leg and a base mount. The base mount includes a mounting aperture and a first base coupler. The first base coupler is coupled to the first leg and facilitates rotation of the first leg. The joint assembly includes a joint mount, a mounting arm, and a first deflection plate. The joint mount includes a mounting post inserted within the mounting aperture. The mounting arm includes a support arm coupled to the joint mount and a suspension arm coupled to the support arm. The first deflection plate is coupled to the suspension arm and extends over the joint mount.

Abstract: Systems for expressing milk from a human breast are provided herein. Such systems can include a compression device having multiple fingers configured to at least partially surround a breast and apply pressure to a major portion of a breast without applying pressure to a remainder portion, thereby activating milk ducts within the breast. The fingers can be configured to apply pressure to an inferior portion and one or more lateral portions of the breast, without applying direct pressure to a superior portion. The fingers can be configured to apply pressure to a superior portion and one or more lateral portions of the breast, without applying direct pressure to an inferior portion. The fingers of the compression device can be configured to apply pressure to a superior portion, an inferior portion, and a first lateral portion of the breast, without applying direct pressure to a second lateral portion of the breast.

Abstract: Wearable breast pumps are provided which utilize compression to enhance milk expression. The breast milk expression systems herein can allow breastfeeding users to obtain milk discreetly and comfortably in the presence of others. These systems compress the breast at one or more locations, such as at a base of a breast and/or along inferior and lateral sides of a breast, to stimulate milk expression. Various components and methods for expressing milk can facilitate milk output. For example, vacuum can be used in conjunction with compression. For another example, one or more temperature sensitive components can be utilized to improve milk secretion. In some embodiments, milk can be collected in a sterile custom storage container located around or beneath the breasts to facilitate wearability. After expression is complete, a quick-release valve can be used to detach the storage container from the pump and can prevent leaks.
