  • Publication number: 20240033166
    Abstract: A rehabilitation device includes a base unit, a circuit unit, a rolling unit, and a holding unit. The circuit unit includes a distance measuring element, which is partially exposed on a bottom surface of the base unit and can measure the moving distance of the base unit after the base unit contacts a plane. The rolling unit includes a plurality of rollers partially protruding from the base unit, a driving member, and at least one auxiliary wheel driven by the driving member. The rollers are continuously in contact with the plane, and the auxiliary wheel is driven to contact the plane. The rollers can make the base unit slide, allowing the user to stretch their upper limbs by themselves. When the user moves to his own limit position, the auxiliary wheel can be driven to gradually increase the moving distance of the base unit, so that the upper limb can be continuously stretched, and the limit of the extension distance and joint movement angle of the upper limb can be gradually increased.

  • Publication number: 20230404438
    Abstract: A grasping-response evaluation system includes: a base mechanism; a positioning module mounted in the base mechanism; a controlling device operable to control the positioning module to switch between the grasping and releasing states; a bob to be engaged with the positioning module in the grasping state; and a traction rope connected between the bob and the base mechanism. When the positioning module switches from the grasping state to the releasing state, the bob becomes disengaged from the positioning module, falls downwardly relative to the base mechanism, and simultaneously pulls down the traction rope. When a grasping-data collecting device removably disposed on the base mechanism and connected to the traction rope is lifted by a user's hand, it pulls up the traction rope, and measures a grasping force of the user's hand.

  • Publication number: 20230255848
    Abstract: A forearm synergy training device includes a support swingable on a base and having an arcuate sliding rail portion, a sliding unit movable on the arcuate sliding rail portion, and a synergistic assembly connected to the base, the support and the sliding unit for driving the sliding unit to slide along the arcuate sliding rail portion when the support is swung. A wearable unit is removably disposed on the support and the sliding unit, and is sleeved on a hand and a forearm of a user. When the user's elbow bends, the support is swung by the forearm through the wearable unit, so that the hand and the forearm are driven by the sliding unit to rotate along the arcuate sliding rail portion.
