  • Publication number: 20180153764
    Abstract: A stimulation device is provided in accordance with one embodiment. The stimulation device includes a chamber which has a flexible wall portion. A drive unit of the stimulation device is in physical communication with the flexible wall portion so as to cause deflections of the flexible wall portion in opposing directions, thereby resulting in a changing volume of the chamber. The changing volume of the chamber results in modulated positive and negative pressures with respect to a reference pressure. An opening of the stimulation device is for applying the modulated positive and negative pressures to a body part. An appendage of the stimulation device may be used as a handle to allow a user to position the stimulation device over the body part. The stimulation device includes a control device for controlling the drive unit.

  • Patent number: 4908984
    Abstract: For culturing a plant so as to have a dwaft habit the plant is placed in cavity inside a pot made of porous material, as for example clay. The plant pot is placed in an outer vessel, preferably with a gap therebetween for water or nutrient solution. Slot-like blind channels extend horizontally into the side wall of the plant pot and/or downwards into the bottom thereof. These channels serve as traps for roots of the tangled mass of roots in the cavity so that the growth of such roots is halted and they only put out root hairs in the channels. The check in the growth of the roots of the plant causes a permanently dwarfed habit.
