The charging connector includes a flexible tether having a proximal end connected to the housing and a distal end having an adaptor for mating with a connector of the mobile device. The charging connector has an outer surface and a lower surface, where the charging connector lower surface is bounded by a plane of a lower end of the battery case in the stored configuration.

Abstract: A portable charging system includes a bag configured to receive an electronic device, a battery, a docking station, a charging apparatus and a cord. Another portable system includes a bag, a charging system, and a cord for charging an electronic device. A battery includes a battery cell for storing energy, an external case surrounding the battery cell, and an electrical contact for transmitting electricity therethrough.

Abstract: An apparatus for bathing a body part, such as the feet, includes a bath chamber for containing a fluid and receiving the body part therein. The bath chamber includes a bottom surface and a wall structure extending upwardly therefrom, where a motor is mounted on an underside of the bottom surface. At least one therapy center is disposed on the bottom surface and operably connected to the motor for providing therapy to the body part when the body part is placed on the at least one therapy center.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a body massager with a backrest, a lower torso massager, and an upper torso massager. The upper torso massager extends from the backrest for imparting a massage effect to the upper torso of the user. A biasing member is connected to the backrest and the upper torso massager for urging the upper torso massager into contact with the user. Another embodiment provides a body massager with a housing having a first guide oriented generally in a longitudinal direction of the housing. A carriage cooperates with the guide for limited longitudinal translation. A motor translates the carriage along the guide. A second guide is canted relative to a longitudinal direction of the housing. A massage member is supported on the carriage and cooperates with the second guide such that as the carriage is translated along the guide, the massage member is translated transversely relative to the carriage.

Abstract: A portable charging system includes a bag configured to receive an electronic device, a battery, a docking station, a charging apparatus and a cord. Another portable system includes a bag, a charging system, and a cord for charging an electronic device. A battery includes a battery cell for storing energy, an external case surrounding the battery cell, and an electrical contact for transmitting electricity therethrough.

Abstract: A portable system for charging an electronic device has a charging system located within a bag, and an audio notification module for indicating a charging status of at least one of the battery charging system and the electronic device. Another portable system has a charging system located within a bag with a charging port accessible from an exterior of the bag. A charging apparatus is configured to connect to the charging port through the bag to provide power to the charging system. Yet another portable system has a charging system located within a bag with a battery check button accessible from an exterior of the bag and lights visible from an exterior of the bag. Upon activation of the battery check button by a user, a light module is configured to illuminate the lights to provide information regarding a state of charge of the charging system.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a massage apparatus having a housing with a massage formation for contacting a body part of a user. A massage mechanism is oriented within the housing for imparting a massage effect to the massage formation. A light source is provided on the massage formation for conveying an illumination effect from the massage formation. A partially translucent massager is disclosed for providing a visual effect of the underlying massage operation. Further, a roller massage assembly is provided wherein a load imparted to a roller is distributed directly to a structure of the massager for preventing distribution of the load to the massage mechanism.

Abstract: A body massager is provided with a housing. A carriage translates in an upper torso region of the housing. A first massager on the carriage extends in a forward direction from the housing. A second motor-driven massager is mounted to the housing at a lower torso region and extends in the forward direction from the housing further than the first motor-driven massager. Another body massager provides a guide with a longitudinal region and a transverse region. Another body massager provides a suspension on the carriage. Another body massager provides a plate on the carriage for supporting a massage member. An actuator is mounted to the carriage for adjusting the plate. Another body massager provides a contoured guide with an actuator for adjusting the guide. Another body massager provides a transversely contoured guide. Another body massager provides a contoured guide that extends forward in upper and lower torso regions.

Abstract: A massager is provided with a body support member having a frame with a cavity. A substrate has a series of receptacles and is mounted to the frame. A plurality of removable vibratory massage units are each mounted within one of the receptacles for imparting a vibratory massage effect. A massage chair is provided with a base for resting upon an underlying support surface. A seat bottom is supported upon the base. A seat back is supported by the base and/or the seat bottom. The massager is provided in the seat back and/or the seat bottom. A method for permitting selective removal of a massage assembly from a massager provides a body support member with a frame and a cavity, and a substrate with a series of receptacles. The substrate is installed to the frame. A plurality of removable vibratory massage units are installed in the receptacles.

Abstract: A massage chair is provided with a base, a seat bottom, and a seat back having a peripheral frame. A peripheral cover is oriented over the frame. A central fabric cover is oriented within the peripheral cover and supported by the frame. A detachable massage unit is connected to the frame. A massager is provided with a seat back, a massage unit within the seat back, and a pair of armrests. A docking cavity is formed within one of the armrests and a remote controller is received within the docking cavity. A massager is provided with a body support member, a massage unit oriented in the body support member, a heater oriented in the body support member, and a wireless remote controller for controlling the operation of the massage unit and the heater by wireless signals.

Abstract: A massage apparatus is provided which includes a housing, a motor disposed within the housing, and at least one massage center provided on the housing. The massage center includes an outer massage member and an inner massage member, where the outer massage member at least partially circumferentially surrounds the inner massage member. The outer and inner massage members are operably connected to the motor for providing rotation of the massage members.
