  • Patent number: 8398531
    Abstract: An apparatus for overall bodily mobilization of a human subject may include a frame for resting fixed on the ground, a platform for supporting the subject that can be moved relative to the frame, and motorized operating means for operating the platform relative to the frame. The operating means may be configured to both (1) throw the platform offcenter relative to a fixed axis substantially vertical and (2) rotate the platform about the fixed axis when the platform is offcenter. The platform may be provided with movable peripheral bearing means on corresponding supporting means that are secured to the frame. The bearing means may enable the platform to rest on the frame while tilting it in an adjustable manner relative to the horizontal in a plane passing through the fixed axis and a central zone of the platform when the operating means throw the platform offcenter relative to this axis.

  • Patent number: 7985169
    Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus (1) comprising a chassis (10) supported on the ground (S), a mobile platform (44) supporting a subject, and motorized means (30, 32, 38) for driving the platform relative to the chassis. In order to put the subject off balance while moving its lifting polygon, so as to act on the subject'body according to advanced kinematics, the driving means are capable of moving the platform off-center relative to a substantially vertical fixed axis (Z-Z) and of driving the platform in rotation about said axis when the platform is off-center, whereas the platform is provided with peripheral mobile supporting means (60, 62) on corresponding bearing means (64) secured to the chassis (10), said supporting means being capable of resting the platform on the chassis by adjustably inclining same relative to the horizontal in a plane passing through the fixed axis and a central region of the platform when the driving means move the platform off-center relative to said axis.
