  • Patent number: 11426238
    Abstract: A system for automated laser-assisted dermatological treatment is provided, the system comprises a robot arm assembly, comprising a laser head coupled to the robot arm and a controlling unit. The system is configured to remove an undesirable dermatological condition from skin by directing laser energy to a pre-defined skin surface area intended for treatment essentially in an absence of human attendance. A method for real-time controlling an automated laser-assisted removal of undesirable dermatological condition from skin implemented by a system and a computer program product for causing the computer to execute the method are further provided.

  • Patent number: 10736772
    Abstract: The invention concerns a fluid circulation and mixing system (100) for a cryocabin arrangement used in a whole-body cryotherapy treatment and a related cryocabin arrangement (120), including a system (100) and a cabin (101) for accommodating a patient. The fluid circulation system (100) includes appliances for effective mixing of cryogenic liquid with ambient air and/or for preventing the cryogenic liquid from settling down on the bottom of evaporator. The cryocabin arrangement (120) further includes appliances for generating and maintaining a fluidic whirl (vortex) within the patient cabin, thus enhancing an overall efficiency of the cryotherapy treatment in general and improving beneficial effects of each individual cryotherapy treatment session.

  • Patent number: 5101514
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an outer garment intended to cover at least the upper part of the body of a person and comprising a preferably heat and/or moisture insulating protective-part or seat-pad (2) which can be moved relative to the remainder of the garment (1) between a first position in which the protective-part is located inwardly of the back-part of the garment and a second position in which the protective-part can be brought beneath the buttocks of the garment wearer, so as to function as a seat pad. At least the back-part of the garment comprises at least two mutually overlapping layers of material (3, 4), such as a lining and an outer fabric. Provided in the bottom of the back-part of the garment is an opening (7) which leads to a space (5) provided between the layers materials. The space (5) is intended to accommodate essentially the whole of the protective-part (2) in its first position.

  • Patent number: 4627661
    Abstract: In a chair back for e.g. an automobile seat, a support part suspended in a frame has two elongate side elements along the chair back, which are interconnected by means of connecting members and held tensioned by suspending the side elements in the frame. A tensioning device, connected to both ends of each side element, can subject the side elements to such great buckling forces as to make them arch, with the arch center facing forwards. Thereby a lumbar support is formed wherein the tensioning devices can be actuated by an adjusting means for resetting the lumbar support by changing the size of the arch.
