20140243159 | EXERCISE MACHINE - An exercise machine for exercising at least one limb, in particular for use in rehabilitation and/or fitness, with a supporting frame and a generator of circular motion, which can be rotated on a rotary shaft associated with the supporting frame, and a limb support for resting and/or supporting at least one limb. A rotational shaft arranged radially off-set with respect to the rotary shaft of the generator of circular motion is associated with the generator of circular motion to rotatably mount a rotator. The limb support is associated with the rotator, preferably eccentric to the rotational shaft. The trajectory of the limb support is elliptical, the ellipse being formed by an overlapping of the circular motions of the generator of circular motion and the rotator. | 08-28-2014 |
20140179493 | THERAPEUTIC WALKING TRAINER - A therapeutic walking trainer for improving the ability to walk, in particular for re-learning the ability to walk, with an upper frame, which has a torso-free body holder and provides forward support, and with a lower frame, which is connected to the upper frame by means of at least one supporting bar and has a number of rollers. To compensate for a torque acting on the vertical axis, the rollers are at least four in number, with at least one of the rollers, preferably exactly two of the rollers, being formed as drivable rollers. In addition, the invention relates to a combination of a therapeutic walking trainer with a motor-free treadmill, and the at least one supporting bar is connected to the lower frame via an elastic lower part. | 06-26-2014 |
20100302250 | Method and Device for Providing a Bio-Feedback on a Muscle Trainer - In a method for controlling a display device on a muscle trainer equipped with at least one force sensor for sensing a person's periodic or sustained muscular force, in which display device a currently applied muscular force is depicted in relation to a target muscular force or to a maximum muscular force, and the display device is controlled such that a force queried by the patient is always depicted in a predefined target area of a panel in the display device, a multifunctional performance profile of a trainee is achieved in a clear and rapidly recognized manner in that the target muscular force is depicted by a first panel of predefined area and the currently applied muscular force is depicted by a second, variable panel positioned within the first panel, and the area of said second panel is caused to change according to a specific relationship to the currently applied muscular force. | 12-02-2010 |
20090318271 | Training Device for Building Up the Musculature of the Locomotor System - In a device for training the musculature of the human locomotor system, comprising a support unit which is at least indirectly attached at one end to a holding arm and at the other end can be releasably attached to a patient, wherein the holding arm is at least indirectly mounted, at its bottom end remote from the support unit, on a carrier chassis by means of at least one resilient element, training of walking or running movements implementing natural movement dynamics without risk of stumbling or falling is made possible in that a resilient element is coupled to at least one stabilizing assembly, which prevents torsion of the holding arm about its longitudinal axis and also restricts movement of the holding arm such that the end of the holding arm remote from the carrier chassis is capable of movement over a predetermined area and the support unit pivotally attached to the holding arm is thereby capable of movement within a predetermined volume. | 12-24-2009 |
