Patent number: 11944585Abstract: Compression garments may include mitts and tightening apparatus to don, or put on, such compression garments. The mitts may be configured to receive a user's hand such that the user can move one or more portions of the garments using the mitts. The tightening apparatus may allow a user to selectively tighten or loosen the garments about the user's body portions. Once donned, the compression garments may apply pressure to one or more regions of the user's body such as, e.g., arm regions, shoulder regions, torso regions, and neck regions.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: TACTILE SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Daniel G. Chase, Darren Jay Wennen, Kristian Dior Gamble

Patent number: 11936415Abstract: An air interface plane (AIP) of a radio frequency (RF) aperture includes: a circuit board having a first side and a second side opposite the first side; and a matrix of tapered elements arranged on the first side of the circuit board and secured to the circuit board, the matrix of tapered elements cooperating to at least one of receive or transmit an over-the-air RF signal. Suitably, each tapered element of the matrix has: a central hub extending along a longitudinal axis from a hub base which is proximate to the first side of the circuit board to an apex of the tapered element which is distal from the first side of the first circuit board; and a plurality of arms extending from the central hub at the apex of the tapered element, each of the plurality of arms including a first portion that projects the arm radially away from the longitudinal axis and a second portion that projects the arm longitudinally toward the first side of the circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTEInventors: Raphael Joseph Welsh, Douglas A. Thornton, Mackenzie Jordan Hawkins, Micah John Meleski, Katherine M. Armitage, Daniel G. Loesch, Matthew E. Huntwork, David R. Chase, Erik W.

Publication number: 20230277407Abstract: Compression garment systems and methods may deliver fluid to one or more fluid cells using a target pressure and an adjustable manifold pressure that may be adjusted to, for example, deliver an amount of fluid to the one or more fluid cells to achieve the desired target pressure. Further, the compression garment systems and methods may provide a graphical user interface depicting a human-shaped graphical element and a compression therapy graphical indication about the human-shaped graphical element. The compression therapy graphical indication may indicate, or show, where on the human-shaped graphical element the compression therapy may be delivered to. Still further, the compression garment systems and methods may include or use a communication interface to determine or identify a compression garment to be used therewith. The identity of the compression garment can be used to configure compression therapy for the compression garment.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Daniel G. Chase, Mark R. Riley, Gregory Robert Straka

Patent number: 11311450Abstract: A compression garment system and method that may include a head garment portion configured to be donned on a head of a body. The compression garment and method may further include a neck garment portion configured to be donned on a neck of the body. A controller may be configured to control pressure applied by each of one or more head pressure applying regions and/or each of one or more neck pressure applying regions to move lymph at least from the head towards the neck.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2016Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Tactile Systems Technology, Inc.Inventors: Darren Jay Wennen, Wade Andrew Zander, Daniel G.

Patent number: 11166868Abstract: Compression garments and methods may include a head garment configured to be positioned around both sides of a head of a body from a posterior of the head to an anterior of the head (e.g., wherein the head garment may include a plurality of controllable head pressure applying regions positionable proximate at least cheeks and a posterior of the head) and a neck garment (e.g., coupled to the head garment). The compression garments and methods may also include a torso garment. Such garment portions may include one or more controllable pressure applying regions to move lymph from the head downward.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2016Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: Tactile Systems Technology, Inc.Inventors: Darren Jay Wennen, Wade Andrew Zander, Daniel G. Chase, Kristian Dior Gamble, Mark R. Riley, Alison Humble Golla, Sunday Jo Hoy, Julie Louise Green, Jason Grant Tilk, Jason R. Ertel, Rachel Nottingham Colosimo, Carolyn Marie McNeeley, Rebecca L.
