Collector for a negative pressure wound therapy system and its combination

A collector for a negative pressure wound therapy system has a soft collecting bag with a gas-permeable unit and a liquid absorber. The collecting bag is connected to a wound-dressing unit via an inlet connecting set and is connected to a sensor assembly via a detecting connecting set. With the soft collecting bag, the collector occupies less volume. By the gas-permeable unit and the liquid absorber, the liquid and gas entering into the collecting bag quickly isolate. Moreover, multiple collectors connect in series to form a collector combination to reduce the frequency to replace the collector combination so that a longer usage time of the collector combination is available.

Adjustable cable systems device

An adjustable cable system enables an exerciser to selectably choose handle positioning for overhead handle engagement. An adjustable framework generally stands upwardly, but generally not vertically, away from a base and seat that supports an exerciser. The framework extends out partially over the exerciser and has generally two angled supports which angle toward each other. Selectable handle systems are selectably engageable and lockable along the length of each angled upright or portion thereof enabling positioning of the handles for easy engagement by the exerciser. By providing the adjustable cable system, the handles are more readily and conveniently available to the exerciser and may enable greater focus, attention, and / or development of exercise on certain muscles or muscle groups.
