Patent ID: 8535253

Claim:
A compression device for applying compression to a body part of a wearer, the compression device comprising: a first bladder layer integrally formed as a one-piece sheet of air impermeable material; a second bladder layer integrally formed as a one-piece sheet of air impermeable material, the first and second bladder layers being disposed in opposing relationship to one another; an inflatable bladder defined by the first and second bladder layers and a bladder sealing line securing the first and second bladder layers to one another; a plurality of conduits, each conduit being defined by spaced apart, generally opposing conduit sealing lines securing the first and second bladder layers to one another and portions of the first and second bladder layers between the conduit sealing lines, at least one of the conduits being fluidly connected to the inflatable bladder for delivering pressurized air to the inflatable bladder; a unitary conduit terminal supported by the compression device and having passages therein, for each conduit at least one of the first and second bladder layers being sealingly joined to the conduit terminal at a respective one of the passages to form a fluid-tight connection between the conduit terminal and the conduit whereby the passage and conduit are in fluid communication; a portable air compressor unit mounted on the compression device and to fluidly connect the air compressor unit to the conduits to deliver pressurized air from the air compressor unit to the inflatable bladder without tubing fluidly connecting the portable air compressor unit to the compression device.
