Abstract: The medical therapy arrangement has a garment tightly arranged at a subject and provided with electrodes at an inner surface of the garment and in electrical contact to a skin of the subject. A connection unit has connection elements electrically connected to the electrodes via separate connection lines being flexible and elastic and integrated into the garment. A connection board has connection pads electrically connected to the control unit that provides each electrode as one of anode, cathode or being disconnected and an integrated part of the garment. The connection board is detachably attachable to the connection unit. The connection unit and the connection board, when attached to each other, are positioned in relation to each other to electrically connected the connection pads to mating connection elements.

Abstract: A first electrode, a second electrode, a third electrode and a fourth electrode are placed on a head of the patient. The electrodes are electrically connected to a master unit or sub-control unit that generates a first stimulation signal, during a first time period, to the first and second electrodes to stimulate the brain inside the head. The third and fourth electrodes receive a first brain signal, during a second time period, and forwards the first brain signal to the master unit or sub-control unit which analyzes the first brain signal and adapting a second stimulation signal based on information in the first brain signal.

Abstract: A battery pack may include a plurality of battery cells, a cell retainer and a heat exchanger assembly. The cell retainer may define a plurality of cell reception slots configured to retain respective ones of the battery cells. The cell retainer may define an enclosure that fixes the battery cells and is not penetrated by any cooling apparatus. The cell retainer may be in thermal communication with the battery cells to transfer heat away from the battery cells. The heat exchanger assembly may be in thermal communication with the cell retainer and external to the cell retainer to at least passively transfer heat away from the cell retainer while the battery pack is operated in a discharge mode. The cell retainer may include a thermally conductive material capable of transferring heat to the heat exchanger assembly and also storing at least some of the heat.

Abstract: A garment worn by the patient is provided. The garment has a first sub-control unit electrically connected to a first electrode and a second electrode placed at a first muscle or first nerve of the patient. The first sub-control unit is electrically connected to a master unit. A fifth electrode is provided placed at a head of the patient that measures a brain voltage signal from a brain of the patient. The fifth electrode sends the measured brain voltage signal to a second sub-control unit or the master unit. A sixth electrode is placed adjacent to a heart of the patient that measures a heart signal from the heart of the patient. The second sub-control unit or the master unit analyzing the measured brain voltage signal and/or heart signal to determine which muscle to stimulate. The master unit adapts a first stimulation signal to the first sub-control unit based on the measured brain voltage signal or heart signal.

Abstract: The method is for treating a patient. A garment worn by the patient is provided. The garment has a first sub-control unit or master unit electrically connected to a first electrode and a second electrode placed at a first muscle or first nerve of the patient and a third electrode and a fourth electrode placed at a second muscle or second nerve. The garment has sensors attached to the garment and electrically connected to the first sub-control unit or master unit. The sensors measure position, electrical signals or movement of the patient wearing the garment. The first sub-control or the master unit receives information about the position or movement and comparing the position, electrical signals or movement to an interval of pre-stored desirable positions, electrical signals levels or movement.

Abstract: The method is for making an electric motor more efficient by iteratively changing when a processor sends activation signals to transistors to minimize a current required to rotate a rotor at a constant rotational speed. The method is also for changing a rotational direction of the rotor by switching the order in which activation signals are sent to the transistors.
