The training machine includes a tiltable arm (25) which via links (9, 13, 14, 20), wheels (19, 21, 24) and belts (16, 23) is connected to the handles (10, 11) and in that said weight body (30) provided at or in the arm (25) is arranged to be moved along the arm to predetermined positions depending on the load which shall be exerted on the handles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a training machine for strength training and rehabilitation comprising pull or press means (42, 43), which are arranged to be moved to and fro, while a predetermined number of weights (18) of a weight package via connection means (22) are brought to be lifted and lowered, respectively, along an inner frame (8), and driving means (48, 49, 50) for lifting said predetermined number of weights in a continuous cycle by means of a first user force towards said pull or press means, and for lowering said predetermined number of weights by means of a second user force, wherein said first force is smaller than said second force.

Abstract: There is provided a method, a system and a device for displaying an image corresponding to a first field of view to an operator of an image capturing device. The method comprises receiving input data relating to a change in at least one of a position, an orientation, or a scaling of the first field of view and determining, based on the input data, at least one of a position, an orientation or a scaling of the first field of view with respect to a second field of view which is larger than the first field of view. Further, the method comprises receiving an image captured by the image capturing device and determining an overlapping portion of the first field of view and the received image. An image to be displayed is then determined by using image data of the received image in the overlapping portion, and using image data of the second field of view in the non-overlapping portion. The invention is advantageous in that it provides an improved operation of the image capturing device.

Abstract: A method for controlling a multi-axis industrial robot or manipulator arranged with a robot control unit. The robot or the control unit includes at least one first computer running a servo controller. A motion limit is configured for at least one axis of the robot arm. A reference signal for a robot position is sent to a robot controller together with a measurement of a position of the robot arm. The reference position is processed and the measured position and the processed reference position are then compared in an evaluator for the purpose of limiting the motion of an arm of the robot.

Abstract: A training machine for strength training and rehabilitation includes: a machine frame, a weight carrying frame, a weight package carried by the weight carrying frame, pull or press elements which are turnably provided on the machine frame and which are arranged to be moved backwards and forwards while a selected pre-determined number of weights in the weight package is arranged to be turned about a first axis, alternatively, by connection elements connected to the pull or press elements, and drive members to lift weights by a first force and to lower the weights by a second force, the first force being less than the second force, the weight carrying frame being turnable on the machine frame about a substantially horizontal second axis and the first and second axes being substantially perpendicular to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a training machine for strength training and rehabilitation comprising pull or press means (42, 43), which are arranged to be moved to and fro, while a predetermined number of weights (18) of a weight package via connection means (22) are brought to be lifted and lowered, respectively, along an inner frame (8), and driving means (48, 49, 50) for lifting said predetermined number of weights in a continuous cycle by means of a first user force towards said pull or press means, and for lowering said predetermined number of weights by means of a second user force, wherein said first force is smaller than said second force.

Abstract: A foot plate device for a training machine (1) for strength training and rehabilitation includes a frame, a user seat (46), foot plate element (2) pivotably supported by the frame, a weight package element (4) in which a pre-determined number of weights in a weight stack (8) can be selected and be lifted and lowered, alternatively, and connection element (26, 28, 40) which are connected to the foot plate element and the weight package element and by element of which the selected pre-determined number weights can be lifted and lowered, the foot plate element (2) having a foot receiving plate (18) and two side members (19, 20) at each lateral side of the plate and directed away from the plate towards the seat and the foot plate element (2) being supported at pivot points (30, 31) provided on the side members.
