  • Publication number: 20200316429
    Abstract: A method of exercising is provided for using an exercise pad assembly. The exercise pad assembly includes a pair of panels that are each positionable on a support surface thereby facilitating a user to place the user's feet thereon. A sheet is coupled to each of the panels and the sheet abuts the support surface. The sheet is comprised of an elastomeric material to frictionally engage the support surface. The sheet inhibits the panels from sliding along the surface when the user slides the user's feet along the panels for the purposes of exercise. The method includes steps of positioning the exercise pad assembly, sliding a user's feet on the exercise pad assembly, and storing the exercise pad assembly.

  • Patent number: 5843043
    Abstract: A syringe that includes a barrel with a removable, tapered nozzle having a rounded front end to facilitate its entering a body cavity without the necessity of puncturing the skin. The nozzle has side openings through which the treatment fluid can be expelled against the wall defining the body cavity. The syringe also has a plunger slidably movable in the barrel and provided with a front end shaped to substantially fill the nozzle so that, when the plunger is pushed fully forward, it will displace a selected amount of the treatment fluid safely through the side openings onto an adjacent wall surface of a body cavity. The nozzle is removably attached to the barrel so that it can be removed to place the selected amount of a treatment fluid in a chamber bounded by the barrel, the nozzle, and the front end of the plunger.
