A new weighted ball exercise device is disclosed. The ball has handles connected to covers located on opposite sides of the ball. The handles rotate 360 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise. The handles alleviate stress on the user's wrists and provide a firm grip. The ball has an internal weight storage compartment or weight drawer that may be opened to permit adding or removing weights of various sizes and weights. The compartment can be axially located between the covers, and be locked and unlocked by action of spring-loaded button mechanism. In another embodiment, the ball has opposing rotatable covers with handles and grips. Weights are removably insertable into one or more recessed compartments located about the ball's outer surface, and may be radially spaced apart. A kettle bell handle attachment can be inserted into the outer surface to permit conversion of the ball to a kettle ball device.

All in one fitness ball

An insertion device and insertion set. The insertion device for inserting at least a portion of at least one piercing member of an insertion set through the skin of a patient includes a device housing, a carrier body and a driver. The carrier body is slidably received within the device housing for movement between an advanced position and a retracted position. The carrier body also includes a receiving structure to support the insertion set in a position with the at least one piercing member oriented for insertion through the skin of the patient at a predetermined or variable angle relative to the skin of the patient upon movement of the carrier body from the retracted position to the advanced position. The driver is operatively coupled between the device housing and the carrier body to urge the carrier body from the retracted position toward the advanced position to place at least a portion of the at least one piercing member of the insertion set thorough the skin of the patient to install the insertion set to the patient. The receiving structure of the carrier body is removable from the insertion set while maintaining the installation of the insertion set to the patient.

Insertion device for an insertion set and method of using the same

Apparatuses and methods for dispensing flexible conduits, such as tubing or electrical cable, are disclosed, particularly for portable medical devices. An exemplary apparatus for dispensing flexible conduit or cable, includes a flexible conduit housing, including a base for temporarily housing a flexible conduit, the base having an opening for receiving the flexible conduit and a cover attached to the base for substantially closing the opening. The apparatus also includes an interface for mounting the housing. The flexible conduit is dispensable with the flexible conduit housing to a fixable variable length.
