Supplemental resistance to the rotation movement may be provided by a belt mechanism (180 of FIG. 4) including a belt (181) wrapped around a cam (151) connected to the axle (157) of the upper torso support (105) and up through the weight support arm upon which free weights are placed.

The invention discloses a protection cushion for a patient undergoing prone-position ventilation, and relates to the field of medical care. The protection cushion comprises a cushion body, wherein thecushion body is provided with ankle joint cushion blocks, a knee cushion block, a pars iliaca cushion block, elbow cushion blocks, a shoulder and chest cushion block and a head cushion block in sequence. The head cushion block, the ankle joint cushion blocks and the elbow cushion blocks are U-shaped cushion blocks. The knee cushion block is provided with hemispherical knee grooves. The middle ofthe pars iliaca cushion block is provided with a perineum groove. The shoulder and chest cushion block is provided with hemispherical breast grooves. By means of the protection cushion, the problems that cushion blocks where human parts are placed are not accurate enough in position and prone to displacement when the patient is in a prone position, breathing resistance and air passage are increased during ventilation when the chest and stomach are pressed, the air press injures are caused, the placed cushion blocks cannot be placed in position in concave and convex according to human body physiological features, skin mucous membranes of pressed parts are prone to press injuries, and artificial air passages, arteriovenous pipelines and various drainage tubes are prone to compression, distortion, displacement and even disengagement are solved.

A novel method and device for exercising the rotary torso muscles of the human body, wherein the device is an exercise machine on which a user's body is supported in a generally supine position. The machine is comprised of a frame structure with a rotable upper torso support (including a head and back rest), a rotatable lower torso support (including a seat) and feet stabilizing rollers, aligned longitudinally. The device further comprises a knee cushion for rotating the lower torso support and a peg upon a weight support arm for holding free weights that impart resistance against the rotation of the upper and lower torso supports. In an alternate embodiment, additional resistance to the rotation movement is provided by a belt mechanism which wraps around a disk connected to the axle of the upper torso support and up through the weight support arm upon which free weights are placed.

The invention relates to a kneecap. The kneecap comprises a kneecap body, a binding mechanism is connected to the kneecap body, and the binding mechanism comprises a connecting piece wrapped on the outer side of the kneecap body; an upper binding belt and a lower binding belt are connected to the connecting piece, a soft pad is arranged on the inner side of the kneecap body, and a plurality of miniature magnetic blocks are arranged on the surface of the soft pad; a plurality of fixed magnetic blocks with magnetic poles being opposite to magnetic poles of the miniature magnetic blocks on the soft pad are fixed to the inner side of the kneecap body, a sunken part is formed in the middle of the inner side of the kneecap body, and the sunken part communicates with the surface of the kneecap body through an air outlet; a single-way air outlet valve is arranged at the air outlet, when the soft pad bears extrusion force from a knee, air in a cavity between the soft pad and the kneecap body can be exhausted directly from the single-way air outlet valve at the air outlet, so that the soft pad is tightly attached to the inner side of the kneecap body together, the soft pad cannot shift, and the using effect is good.

A gel pad is provided within the main body in close proximity to the fabric sheet. The main body of the knee pad is injection molded with the gel pad and fabric sheet in place to bond the fabric sheet and gel pad to the molded main body to be effectively integrated therewith. Changing the recesses' shape and spacing alters the flexibility of the knee pad and renders it harder or softer.
