  • Patent number: 10596405
    Abstract: A device for the therapeutic treatment and/or training of the lower extremities of a human having driven and controlled movement devices, which are connected to a stationary frame and include holding members for fastening of one extremity. The holding members can be moved independently of one another along walking trajectories. The movement devices each include a pivot arm pivotable into different elevations, and the pivot arm is rotatably connected to one single sled on a linear track. A first rotational drive is attached to a single sled and is connected to the pivot arm for changing the elevation of the respective holding member. The pivot arm includes a second rotational drive for changing the inclination of the respective holding member and the sled is connected to a linear drive for changing the longitudinal position of the respective holding member.

  • Patent number: 10080915
    Abstract: A device for the therapeutic treatment and/or training of the lower extremities of a human has independent driven and controlled movement devices which are connected to a stationary frame. Each of the movement devices include foot plates that are moved independently of one another along walking trajectories. Each movement device has a pivot arm pivotable into different elevations where the pivot arm is rotatably connected to a single sled on a linear track. A first rotational drive is attached to the sled and is connected to the pivot arm for changing the elevation of the respective holding member. A second rotational drive changes the inclination of the foot plate and the sled is connected to a linear drive for changing the longitudinal position of the foot plate.

  • Patent number: 9149407
    Abstract: A device for therapeutically treating and/or training the lower extremities of a person, having driven controllable motion devices connected to a stationary frame and retaining means for attaching to each extremity, that can be displaced independently along walking trajectories. Motion devices provide an outrigger pivotable to various height levels, jointedly connected at a first carriage of a linear guide on one side, and rotationally connected to a retaining means on the other side. A second carriage of the linear guide is disposed ahead of the first carriage and jointedly connected to the outrigger by means of a connecting element. The first carriage has a first linear drive for changing the longitudinal position of each retaining means, the second carriage providing a second linear drive for changing the height level of each retaining means. The outrigger provides a rotary drive for changing the slope of each retaining means.
