Benefits of technology

[0079]Furthermore, the excessive exercise of a patient can be prevented in the case that a foot rest bar, which both the feet are kept on is able to rock in a vertical direction and a brake device, which brakes on the rocking movements in a vertical direction of a foot rest bar when a longer time is needed for a foot rest bar to rock in a vertical direction, are equipped.
[0080]Furthermore, the excessive exercise of a patient can be prevented in the case that a foot rest bar, which bot

Problems solved by technology

Also, in case of being obliged to keep seated for long time and no exercises can be performed, it is subject to thrombophelebitis known as economy syndrome.
However, since its effect of the training with no equipment is limited, more effective training device is needed.
Also in the cases that a director or caregiver are not close by, the disabled person who does not keep the caregivers instruction of the exercise repetitions and exceeds the equivalent range of the suited exercise by many tim

first embodiment

[0107]I explain a lower limb function training device in this invention by using FIG. 1 and FIG. 8.

[0108]FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a lower limb function training device of the first embodiment.

[0109]FIG. 2 is a front view of FIG. 1.

[0110]FIG. 3 is a rear view of FIG. 1.

[0111]FIG. 4 is a A-A cross section view of FIG. 2.

[0112]FIG. 5 is a side view while using, which sets and fixes the two legs.

[0113]FIG. 6 is a side view showing the state of performing Plantar Flexion exercise.

[0114]FIG. 7 is a control circuit diagram.

[0115]FIG. 8 is a flowchart in case, which the connection between a wheel and a motor are cut.

[0116]Furthermore, the drawing of a rear wheel support of a right and left part is omitted in FIG. 2.

[0117]Also, the drawing of the front wheel support parts is omitted in FIG. 3.

[0118]A foot rest bar (1) is formed with wood in midair with a plane abbreviation rectangular (when necessary another material can be used in place of wood, such as plastic).

[0119]The foot rest b...

second embodiment

[0183]Next, I explain the second embodiment by using FIG. 9 to FIG. 13.

[0184]FIG. 9 is a perspective view of a foot rest bar of the second embodiment.

[0185]FIG. 10 is a perspective view of a foot rest bar move stand of the second embodiment.

[0186]FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the second embodiment.

[0187]FIG. 12 is a side view of the second embodiment.

[0188]FIG. 13 is a perspective view of the second embodiment in a usage state.

[0189]Furthermore, I omit the detailed explanation of composition elements parity to the first embodiment by putting the same mark in the explanation of the second embodiment.

[0190]The second embodiment consists of a foot rest bar (1) and a foot rest bar cart (22) as a measuring instrument, and the similar functions to the first embodiment are realized by combining a foot rest bar (1) and a foot rest bar cart (22).

[0191]Same as the first embodiment, both a heel support part (4) and setting band (3) assemble a foot rest bar (1) of this embodiment.

[0192]Sever...

third embodiment

[0230]Next, I explain the third embodiment by using FIG. 14 and FIG. 17.

[0231]FIG. 14 is a side view of a lower limb function training device of the third embodiment.

[0232]FIG. 15 is a perspective view of FIG. 14.

[0233]FIG. 16 is a side view while in use, which sets and fixes the two legs.

[0234]FIG. 17 is a side view of the modification of the third embodiment,

[0235](a) is a view of the first modification,

[0236](b) is a view of the 2nd modification.

[0237]A foot rest bar (301) is formed of plastic (or can necessarily be made of wood, etc.) and a space inside with a plane similar to a rectangle.

[0238]The foot rest bar (301) has an area of sufficient width that can set both feet shown as FIG. 16 (for example, the size of the side about 20 cm and about 25 cm, length).

[0239]Therefore, a disabled person can set both a foot with a disability, which has hemiparesis of lower extremities of a nerve, decline of the lower extremities muscular strength that originates from a plasmotomy of Achill...

Abstract

A lower limb function training device which the user themselves can use safely with no sense of fear, which is used to prevent thrombophlebitis known as economy syndrome, which allows the user to select the type of exercise, and which enables to train own lower limbs in the narrow area is provided with a foot rest bar (501), in which both the feet are put on, a supporting structure (502) of the foot rest bar that has repulsive force which can be extended, a storage device (503) of said supporting structure and said foot rest bar, a pivot axis (504) of which load device (507) which enable to set the device to detect the number of times, speed to move and brake is mounted and a set up structure (506) for the supporting structure of the foot rest bar to a case (505).

Description

[0001]This is a continuation-in-part application of the application Ser. No. 11 / 949,089. The application Ser. No. 11 / 949,089 is a divisional application of the application Ser. No. 10 / 779,126 and the U.S. Pat. No. 6,780,142, Date of Patent: Aug. 24, 2004.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]This invention is related to offering of a training device for avoiding thrombophlebitis known as economy syndrome in case of being obliged to keep seated position for long time in airplanes and so on.BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY[0003]In the case of disorders where someone has a disability as a result of hemiparesis after apoplexy, a decline of muscular strength of the lower extremities is caused by the rupture of the Achilles' tendon and / or disabilities of the range of motion in the joint of a leg or knee originating in a bone fracture of the lower extremities and other conditions if left untreated, an ankle or knee becomes a contracture and chronic disabilities of the lower extremities have been originated.[0004]Ther...
