System and Method For Online Virtual Fitting Room
ActiveUS20150154691A1Accurate predictionAccurate fitDesign optimisation/simulationAnimationGraphicsGraphical user interface
A system and method for virtually fitting an article of clothing on an accurate representation of a user's body obtained by 3D scanning of the user in minimal clothing and in standard garments of known properties. A graphical user interface allows the user to access a database of garments and accessories available for selection for the virtual fitting simulation for which each garment's physical and material properties are known. A finite element analysis is applied to determine the shape of the combined user body and garment and a an accurate visual representation of the selected garment or accessory on the proportional model of the user's body based on the analysis is generated. Means are also provided for the user to solicit custom garments or accessories from a participating designer or retailer, purchase selected garments or accessories from the participating designer or retailer, and communicate his or her preferences with participating designers, retailers, or other users.

Therapeutic limb covering using hydrostatic pressure
InactiveUS6945944B2Easy to useEasy to wearPneumatic massageRestraining devicesLimb coverHydrostatic pressure
The present invention provides a therapeutic limb covering and an associated method of treating chronic swelling of a limb. The limb covering is uses hydrostatic pressure provided by liquid contained within the covering to apply pressure to the limb. The limb covering comprises a substantially non-distensible flexible outer layer, a distensible flexible inner layer joined together and a liquid tight bladder therebetween. The covering may be adapted for releasable securement about a limb such as an arm or a lower leg and foot of a patient. After placement on the limb, when the bladder is filled with a liquid, such as water, it expands to contact and apply pressure to the limb.

An improved rocker-type switch has a toggle member pivotably mounted on a central pivot member in a frame of a top housing part joined to a bottom housing part holding switch contacts in a modular block subassembly. A pair of movable contact arms is actuated by spring-biased actuator members held in the central pivot member. The modular block subassembly has an insulative top block member, a top switch contact plate with switch contacts on upright tabs inserted through slots in the top block member, an insulative bottom block member sandwiching the top switch contact plate, and a bottom switch contact plate having switch contacts on upright tabs inserted through slots in the bottom and top block members, forming a pair of opposing switch contact positions for the movable contact arms. The switch contact plates have clip portions for inserting the tabs of respective switch contact terminal plates therein. For different switch configurations, e.g., single-pole, double-pole, 3-way, or 4-way operation, the switch contact plates are changed, but the same block subassembly and other parts can be used, thereby minimizing change of the surrounding parts, limiting insulative molding costs, eliminating tolerance stack-up, and facilitating assembly through automation.

Stenting Ring with Marker
A stenting ring made of a tube or rolled-up sheet that has a characteristic wall thickness. The ring defines a lumen and is equipped with at least one marker made of a material different from that of the ring. The ring is expansible from a radially compact disposition with a relatively small circumference to a radially expanded disposition with a relatively large circumference. The ring exhibits in the compact disposition a serpentine arrangement of succeeding struts lying in alternate opposite directions to the longitudinal axis of the lumen. The marker has a thickness in the radial direction of the ring that is less than the characteristic wall thickness, and has a width that extends circumferentially around an arc of the ring. The marker is attached to the ring at a zone located at a point intermediate in the extent of said arc. The marker overlaps with a respective one of said struts, at each end of its circumferential arc, when the ring is in the compact disposition, the respective struts moving away from each other, and from the marker, when the ring expands towards said radially expanded disposition.
