Abstract: An active orthotic device, e.g. a hand orthosis, is attached to one or more limbs of a human subject and comprises a respective set of actuators (21) for moving a respective limb (1A) among the one or more limbs. A method for controlling the orthotic device comprises obtaining one or more bioelectric signals, [S(t)], from one or more bioelectric sensors (10) attached to or implanted in the human subject; processing the one or more bioelectric signals, [5(t)j, for prediction of an intended application force, FA(t), of the respective limb (1A) onto an object; obtaining a force signal, PA(t), from a force sensing device (22) associated with the respective set of actuators (21) and/or the respective limb (1A); and generating, as a function of a momentary difference, e(t), between the intended application force, FA(t), and the force signal, PA(t), a respective set of control signals, it(t), for the respective set of actuators (21).

Abstract: A device for pivoting an arm relative a joint. The device for pivoting the arm relative the joint includes at least one artificial tendon attached to a distal end of the arm and a driving mechanism, the driving mechanism being connected to and adapted to pull the tendon and the distal end of the arm.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (10) for pivoting an arm (2) relative a joint (1). The device comprises at least one artificial tendon (20, 21) attached to a distal end (3) of the arm and a driving mechanism (30), the driving mechanism being connected to and adapted to pull the tendon and the distal end of the arm, and a method of operating the device.

Abstract: A hybrid drive module, comprising a housing (170) enclosing a chain drive (120) connecting an electrical motor (110) with a crank shaft (22) of an associated internal combustion engine (20) via at least one coupling (130, 140). The housing (170) further comprises a reservoir (190) and a removable lid (400) for allowing access to parts of the electrical motor (110), and the lid (400) is arranged at a distance from said reservoir (190).
