  • Patent number: 12083374
    Abstract: A support garment for use during resistance training. The support garment includes a band of elastomeric material having a front perimeter and a rear perimeter. The front perimeter includes a first perimeter side and a second perimeter side opposite the first perimeter side. A portion of the first perimeter side of the front perimeter is attached to a portion of the second perimeter side of the front perimeter at a seam. A first opening is formed on a first seam side of the seam and a second opening is formed on a second seam side opposite the first side of the seam. The support garment includes two upper arm sleeves, each encompassing one of the openings. Each upper arm sleeve is configured for wear on an upper arm of a user above an elbow of the user. The upper arm sleeves are biased inwardly. Each upper arm sleeve is configured to position one arm in one of the upper arm sleeves and the front perimeter is configured to position the front perimeter across a chest of the user during resistance training.

  • Patent number: 11497259
    Abstract: A support garment for use during resistance training. The support garment includes a band of elastomeric material having a front perimeter and a rear perimeter. The front perimeter and rear perimeter are folded together at two points, each point forming a segment. The segments are then affixed to each other at a midpoint. In addition, openings are formed on both sides of the segments with upper arm sleeves encompassing the openings. Each upper arm sleeve is configured for wear on an upper arm of a user above an elbow of the user. The upper arm sleeves are biased inwardly by the attached segments. The user positions one arm in each upper arm sleeve and positions the attached segments across a chest of the user during resistance training.

  • Patent number: 11305147
    Abstract: A support garment for use during resistance training. The support garment includes a segment of elastomeric material having two ends and upper and lower perimeters. The segment of material also has a chest support segment located between the two ends. Each end is positioned and attached to the upper perimeter of the segment of material to form a sleeves band. Each sleeve band has an opening on opposite sides of the support garment. Each sleeve band is also configured to accommodate an arm of a user of the garment and are biased inwardly by the chest support segment. The user positions one arm in each sleeve band and positions the chest support segment across a chest of the user during resistance training.

  • Patent number: 10327621
    Abstract: An automatic shoe polishing device that comprises a housing cabinet containing components of the automatic shoe polisher that includes a digital control unit implementing multiple cycles of operation to accommodate multiple shoe profiles. At least one brush and spray assembly with a rotating brush and aerosol spray nozzle mounted on a linear moving platform. A shoe tray and track secure a shoe in place and transport a shoe within the device. A plurality of aerosol containers contain at least a cleaner and polisher mixture, with a pneumatic system used to distribute the aerosol mixture using an aerosol spray nozzle and to power at least one lift piston on the shoe tray and track to accommodate the multiple shoe profiles. The digital control unit operates the brush and spray assembly in multiple movement and spraying cycles back and forth to in turn clean and polish a secured shoe.
