  • Publication number: 20150012066
    Abstract: System and method for the non-invasive, wireless generation, delivery, and control of electrostimulation signals. The system contains a circuit board with a plurality of components protected by a silicone housing disposed in overlying relation to form a hollow interior therein. Collectively, this is one electrode. A plurality of electrodes are attached to an individual's body via leads on the underside of the electrodes. The electrodes are structured and adapted to transmit an electrical impulse into the individual's body, thereby performing a treatment (e.g., for pain relief). An electronic device can be used to activate or deactivate each electrode, along with control the length and strength of impulses, depending on the protocol used for the individual's treatment. Each impulse is made up of a plurality of bursts, and each burst is made up of a plurality of pulses, which are higher voltage signals transmitted from the circuit board through the leads.

  • Publication number: 20130204741
    Abstract: A bio-electricity system and method utilizes electrical muscle stimulation, interferential current, micro-current, Russian stimulation and tens-transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation. The system and method are adapted for treating maladies of physically out-of-balance users according to the teachings of an ancient art. Such treatment is for pain relief, reduction of inflammation, decreasing muscle spasms and reduction of edema to other areas outside of the acupoint area. The system and method include a plurality of components including probes, adhesive, electronic components, an instruction manual, an electronic device and a program in the electronic device to wirelessly activate probes positioned on a user in accordance with the instruction manual.

  • Publication number: 20110131924
    Abstract: A preferred embodiment includes an apparatus for distributing a horizontal force through angular communication with a neck ring of a bottle having at least one surface. One preferred embodiment includes a stationary member shaped to accommodate the bottle and securing mechanism extending from the stationary member ring having one or more projections and a member to convey a neck ring towards a bottle. A horizontal force transmits the bottle about the stationary member and upon contact with the one or more projections is distributed into vertical and horizontal components causing the one or more projections to penetrate the neck ring.

  • Patent number: 7320254
    Abstract: An ergonomic wedge shaped torque tester with multiple push buttons to control the use and recording functions. The top of the device has a single on/off button, a display screen to display the results of the test, two push buttons for scrolling through the various saved test results one scrolls up the other scrolls down. The device can easily be grasped by the right or left hand. This shape makes it possible to place the chuck portion of the tester on a bottle cap, grasp the device with your hand from the top or side and turn in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The chuck is connected into a strain gauge connected on a shaft that utilizes a transducer to measure the strain in accordance with deflection of the metal shaft. The output of the transducer is connected through an amplifier into a microprocessor which utilizes the information from the transducer to record the maximum amount of strain or torque applied to the bottle cap.

  • Publication number: 20020059457
    Abstract: A Real-Time Data Agent (RTDA) is capable of providing very thin wireless network clients (those having limited operating system and bandwidth capability) with the ability to create, initiate, and remotely control server agents to give immediate notification for relevant changes (defined by boolean-based criteria) for any World Wide Web (or Intranet) data that can be viewed on the given device. Quite simply, it provides an expedient function for a user to receive notification of relevant information from any World Wide Web page or data that can be viewed on a thin (wireless) device or client. RTDA focuses on data telephones and clipping browsers, especially those using WAP (wireless application protocol). Though the invention runs primarily from an application server within the Internet (or central network), its main feature is found in a screen interface for the client device (e.g. data-capable cellular phone).
