Abstract: A user attachment for an apparatus for gait rehabilitation providing a possibility for a user to receive support during walking in a walking direction. A harness is attached to the body of the user and can be connected to a weight supporting device. This connection is a driven attachment arm attached at the weight supporting device which can be detachably connected with the harness. The driven attachment arm is connected via a double parallelogram unit with the harness attachment element. A guiding attachment arm can be connected with the weight supporting device and can be detachably connected with the harness attachment element for a rotative connection of the driven attachment arm with the guiding attachment arm.

Abstract: A leg actuation apparatus includes two driven axes, wherein onto each one a distal parallelogram mechanism is attached with one connector being attached in a torque proof manner, wherein the other end of the arm being rotatably connected to an intermediate axis. One proximal parallelogram mechanism is rotatably attached at each intermediate axis and at transfer axes connected to the leg attachment elements to be attached to the upper and lower leg of a user. The distal ends of the lower parallelogram mechanism and the distal ends of the upper parallelogram mechanism can freely glide along the respective first and second driven axis.

Abstract: A suspension device for balancing a weight, especially a suspension device allowing a patient or a limb of a patient to be at least partially supported in a predetermined direction, includes a frame, a direction guide for the supportive movement, a lever for pivotal connection between the direction guide and the frame around a first axis and at least one spring assembly connecting the lever with the frame. The lever has a second pivotal axis in a distance from the connection between the first pivotal axis and the attachment of the direction guide. The at least one spring assembly is pivotally attached between that second pivotal axis and a fourth pivotal axis connected with the frame.

Abstract: An apparatus for automated walking training includes a frame or treadmill having a driven treadmill belt and a pelvis attachment to support a position and weight of a user. The pelvis attachment includes a displacement unit for allowing a movement of the user's pelvis held by attachment elements transverse to and/or rotating about a perpendicular axis to the walking direction of the treadmill to provide a more natural and physiological gait during training. A weight suspension unit having a cable guided over a guide roller positioned above and attached to the pelvis attachment may include a displacement unit adapted to move the guide roller perpendicular to the diverted section of the cable to influence the transverse position of an upper body of the user as well as to prevent a pendulum effect of the trunk of his body.
