  • Publication number: 20230028141
    Abstract: A tremor stabilization apparatus, for example for helping to stabilize tremors of user with Parkinson's Disease or Essential Tremor. The tremor stabilization apparatus has a housing that is attachable to a part of a user's body and a rotatable flywheel assembly mounted to the housing. The rotatable flywheel assembly includes a rotatable flywheel, a prime mover arranged to rotate the flywheel about a flywheel rotation axis, and a gimbal to which the flywheel is attached. The gimbal is pivotally mounted to the housing at a hinge formed between the gimbal and the housing and defining a precession axis such that the flywheel can precess with respect to the housing about the precession axis. The precession axis is fixed relative to the housing. The tremor stabilization apparatus further includes a biasing member arranged to oppose precession of the rotatable flywheel assembly and urge the rotatable flywheel assembly to an equilibrium position.

  • Publication number: 20220304888
    Abstract: The present invention relates to apparatus for stabilisation of tremors, both physiological and pathological, of parts of the body, especially the hands. We describe an apparatus for reducing effects of tremors on an area of the human body, the apparatus comprising a gyroscope device and an attachment assembly for attachment of the gyroscope device to a location on the human body in the area, wherein the attachment assembly provides a substantially inelastic attachment to the location and comprises a gyroscope mount. The gyroscope mount comprises a substantially stiff first plate having a shape adapted to substantially correspond with a shape of the human body in the location. In preferred embodiments, the attachment assembly further comprises a second plate mountable to the body such that a clamping force is appliable between the first plate and the second plate.
