Abstract

The invention relates to a method for training neuromuscular function using a gait trainer comprising a motor, a weight sensor and a cable, and a gait trainer. The method may include determining an action applied by the motor to the cable balancing weight, and measuring, with the weight sensor, an action applied by a patient to the cable actual weight, wherein the driving direction of the motor is determined based on comparing the balancing weight to a measurement of the actual weight applied to the cable by the patient. The gait trainer may include a lifting system having a rotatable cable drum and a cable for winding or unwinding the cable around the rotatable cable drum according to a drive direction set based on comparing a balancing weight to a measured weight actually applied to the cable by a patient. The gait trainer may further include a motor adapted to axially engage the rotatable cable drum and to drive the rotatable cable drum in a drive direction. The gait trainer may also include a weight sensor, a control unit, a processor, and a motor controller. The lifting system can be freely suspended through a weight sensor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of training neuromuscular functions using a gait trainer comprising an electric motor, a weight sensor and a cable, and the gait trainer. [0002] The method may include the acts of determining a counterweight applied to the cable by the motor, and measuring, with the weight sensor, an actual weight applied to the cable by the patient, wherein the direction of drive of the motor is based on the relationship between the counterweight and the measured patient applied weight. Determined by comparison to the actual weight of the cable. [0003] The gait trainer may include a lifting system having a rotatable cable drum and a cable for: moving the The cable is wound or rewound around the rotatable cable drum. [0004] The gait trainer may further include an electric motor adapted to engage axially with the rotatable cable drum and adapted to drive the rotatable cable drum in a drive direction. The gait trainer may ...
