An inflatable suspension harness/body jacket and method of use in medical partial weight-bearing therapy. The suspension harness/body jacket is fit onto a patient and has bladders that are inflated sufficiently to achieve a tight conforming fit. Deflating and re-inflating the bladders where necessary to re-achieve the tight conforming fit allows for successful weight-bearing therapy without discontinuing the therapy for an extended period or removing the patient. The suspension harness/body jacket has shoulder straps and jacket portions that may pass through D-rings that, when attached to a frame or other apparatus, provide additional offloading capacity.

A full body Gait Training Harness for children with disability may be modified for adult use to assist a trainer to teach functions such as walking with a proper gait and crawling. Shoulder straps attached to a torso-encircling belt cross at the trainee's back to eliminate slippage, allowing use on those who have no arms. Leg loops secure the harness to the thighs, rather than through the crotch, for a more secure and comfortable fit. Leg stabilization straps between the leg loops and the shoulders provide tension to encourage development of a proper gait and to prevent crossing of the trainee's legs. Shoulder handles allow a trainer to support a trainee from above without stooping, while a back handle may be used to lift a trainee or support them in a crawling position. Walking extension straps attached to the shoulders allow trainee independence while the trainer retains control.

A shoulder carrier having at least one shoulder strap connected to a container. A lumbar support attached to the container bears on a wearer's hip or lumbar spine to transfer weight of the shoulder carrier to the hip or lumbar spine and away from the wearer's shoulder. The shoulder strap can include a shoulder pad, and both the shoulder pad and lumbar support can be or include a fluid-filled bladder. The shoulder pad can be slidably attached to the shoulder strap to prevent abrasion of the wearer's shoulder. At least one end of the shoulder strap can be attached to the container by passing the strap through a guide attached to the container and attaching the shoulder strap end to the container at a position below the guide.

A shoulder brace traction system uses a torso fitting part to be worn by a user in combination with an upper arm fitting part to be worn by the user. The upper arm fitting part includes an extension overlay that extends and covers the shoulder cap of the user. The extension overly includes front and rear shoulder straps connected to an intermediate portion of the extension layer. These shoulder straps connect with and/or on the torso fitting part on front and rear portions of the shoulder. The extension includes two further straps adjacent the shoulder cap that engage front and rear central anchors on the torso fitting part. The brace traction system is effective for many athletes and is cost effective to manufacture.

An adjustable harness for an animal with a girth strap comprising a support base with a guide D-ring. A right and a left shoulder strap pass through the D-ring forming a double layer strap ending in a leash attachment. The shoulder straps pass proximally over the shoulders of the animal down the chest and through a sternum slide having two top slots and one bottom slot. The shoulder straps enter through the top slots and exit through the bottom slot, forming a second double layer strap, which is joined to the girth strap at the center of the belly. The girth strap is adjustable. The effective working length of the shoulder straps are adjustable through a slide stop on the first double layer strap. The shoulder straps are slid through the sternum slide to place the slide at the center of the chest, below the trachea. This adjustability is especially useful for lithe animals such as cats, ferrets, rabbits and dogs.

The mobilizer consists of an open, inverted “U” shaped frame when view from above with the legs or the “U” pointed towards the rear. Pivoting caster wheels are attached to the front lower corners and rear wheel support arms extend rearward and curve downward each bearing a smaller non-pivoting wheel. Two vertical upright support members rise from the frame and are equipped with height adjustment mechanisms. Horizontal arm support assemblies, each with a hand grip and brake handle are attached to the upper ends of the support members. The user is supported by his elbows and shoulder girdle resulting in decompression of his spine. The arm support assemblies can be pivoted 180 degrees so that the grip portions and the hand brake levers face the rear of the mobilizer at about waist height. This allows the user to stand and grasp the handles as he walks forward.

The invention discloses an exoskeletal upper limb rehabilitation training robot. The exoskeletal upper limb rehabilitation training robot comprises a base component, a shoulder girdle component, a shoulder joint component, an upper arm component and a forearm component. For the exoskeletal upper limb rehabilitation training robot, the shoulder girdle component can completely match the motion law of the human glenohumeral joint, and the demand for the freedom degree by the human upper limb during rehabilitation training in the three-dimensional space is satisfied. Due to the adoption of the configuration method of the freedom degree, the body of a patient and a chair can be fixed to a certain degree, meanwhile, the upper limb of the patient can tightly wear the mechanical arm, so that the body compensation during the training process is reduced, and the correct training movements are realized on the upper limb of the patient. By utilizing a rotating shaft deviation mechanism, a mechanical component is far away from the head of the patient, and thus the oppressing sensation of the patient is alleviated; by controlling the movement of the shoulder girdle component, the shoulder joint component, the upper arm component and the forearm component, the rapid switching of the initial wearing positions of the training modes of the left and right upper limbs of the exoskeletal upper limb rehabilitation training robot is realized, and the complicated regulation process of the existing robot is avoided.

A shoulder complex and upper arm injury reduction system having a torso fitting part, an upper arm wrap part, and at least one movement control strap constructed of non-stretchable material. The movement control straps are strategically anchored on the system to control posterior, anterior, and multidirectional movement of the upper arm wrap part relative to the torso fitting part. The straps are length adjustable to control the amount of movement of the upper arm wrap part relative to the torso fitting part, and prevent separation of the upper arm wrap part from the torso fitting part beyond the strap length. The system includes a control strap that extends from the shoulder capping region to a strap mounting location below or above the shoulder capping region. The strap is length adjustable to allow tension to be placed on the strap and to produce traction between the shoulder strapping region and the strap mounting location.
