Problems solved by technology

However, because the track system is huge and heavy, a special room must be provided for installing the track system, and subsequently, the treatment must be performed in a room so equipped
Therefore, the flexible deployment of such equipment is limited

Embodiment Construction

[0042] Hereinafter, various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the examples are given for the sake of illustration only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. The features of various embodiments described below can be combined with each other unless specifically stated otherwise. On the other hand, a description of an embodiment having several features should not be construed as indicating that all of those features are necessary to practice the invention, as other embodiments may include fewer features and / or alternative features.

[0043] In the following, devices are described that can be used for gait training, in particular therapeutic gait training, to help patients (re)learn to walk, eg after a stroke or other physical injury. In particular, the embodiments described below enable at least partial suspension of a person (ie, bearing some or all...

Abstract

An apparatus for gait training, comprising: a movable base (11) comprising a drive unit (13) for moving the movable base (11), an arm arrangement (15, 16, 18) extending from the movable base (11) to enable a person (113) to be at least partially suspended from above, a movement detector (14, 115; 20; 21) to detect a movement of the person (113), and a control unit (119) configured to control said drive unit (13) in response to movement of the person detected by the movement detector (14, 115; 20; 21) such that the movable base (11) follows the person (113) in a predetermined distance range and in a predetermined angular range with respect to a movement direction of the person (113).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a gait training device that can be used, for example, in gait therapy. Background technique [0002] In recent years, there has been increased interest in improving or automating gait therapy for patients such as stroke patients, or other patients who must learn or relearn how to walk, or any other patient with limited ability to walk . [0003] From WO 2000 / 028927 A1 a device and method are known for automating treadmill therapy, in which the patient walks on a treadmill and can be partially or completely suspended, i.e. part or all of the patient's weight can be controlled by a load The load carrying means carries the load, which may be adjustable. [0004] Such a device is especially useful for the early stages of treatment. However, because the patient is essentially stationary on the treadmill, all of the complex movements required for walking in everyday life (eg, climbing stairs) may not be readily practiced u...
