Abstract: A universal haptic drive system for arm and wrist rehabilitation that includes a hand accessory and a vertical handle for carrying the hand accessory, the vertical handle being movable in a transversal plane. The system furthermore includes a haptic actuator system for applying a force to the vertical handle. The vertical handle includes a universal joint with locking ability. When the universal joint is unlocked, it enables movements for wrist rehabilitation, and when it is locked it causes a stiff substantially vertical handle enabling movements for arm rehabilitation.

Abstract: The portable device for rehabilitating an impaired user having difficulties in executing simultaneous reaching and lifting tasks comprises an armrest whereto the forearm of the user can be fastened and mechanism for enabling the movement of the armrest on a surface. It furthermore comprises mechanism for monitoring the movement of the armrest and mechanism for sensing a force exercised by the arm of the user in an orthogonal direction to the surface. The device enables the user to conduct reaching movements in a large workspace having the forearm supported and fastened. The fact that the forearm is supported and fastened to the device allows for better control of the shoulder training movements, avoiding uncontrolled trajectories at the level of the elbow that are possible in case only a handle is grasped.

Abstract: The portable device (10) for rehabilitating an impaired user having difficulties in executing simultaneous reaching and lifting tasks comprises an armrest (12) whereto the forearm of the user can be fastened and means (16) for enabling the movement of the armrest on a surface. It furthermore comprises means (18) for monitoring the movement of the armrest and means (13) for sensing a force exercised by the arm of the user in an orthogonal direction to the surface. The device enables the user to conduct reaching movements in a large workspace having the forearm supported and fastened. The fact that the forearm is supported and fastened to the device allows for better control of the shoulder training movements, avoiding uncontrolled trajectories at the level of the elbow that are possible in case only a handle is grasped.

Abstract: Device for balance and body orientation support configured to control the body position of individuals with sensory-motor disability that prevents them from normal standing and walking, that comprises a top frame (6) linked to a bottom frame (15) by telescopic rods (8, 9), wherein the bottom frame (15) comprises wheels and the top frame (6) is linked by means of suspension elements to a lumbar belt, thus being the stiffness of the device configured to be regulated according to the disability level of the individual, and thus providing reduction of the loading of legs by partial support of the body weight; hence allow therapy of the walking in neurorehabilitation, but also exercise after surgical interventions. The device can be adjusted to fit the size of the potential individual with the simple tools.

Abstract: The invention relates to a high-speed parallel robot with four degrees of freedom comprising four kinematic chains (1) articulated at one of their ends to a mobile platform (4) carrying the tool (5) and at their other end, through a rotational joint (2), to an actuador integral with a base plate (3). The mobile platform (4) is formed by four members (11), (11?), (12), (12?), linked together by means of articulated linkages (13), at least two of the members being parallel to each other, forming an articulated mobile platform with one degree of freedom in the plane of the mobile platform. The actuators are positioned with any orientation in the base plate (2) and preferably at 45°, 135°, 225° and 315°.

Abstract: Module with parallel kinematic movement and orthogonal axes, characterised because it has a fixed structure; and a passive structure that has at least one kinematic shears joined at one end to the fixed structure and at the other end to a flat mobile structure, one of these unions being articulated; and a spatial mobile structure carrying the work head and which can be moved linearly respect to the flat mobile structure; and arms joined at one end to the fixed structure and at the other end to the spatial mobile structure, one of the unions having two degrees of freedom and the other union three degrees of freedom; and means to activate the movement of the arms.
