A shoulder joint tracking apparatus includes a gravity compensation spring that compensates for a vertical movement of a shoulder joint of a trainee, a weight of an arm, and gravity to a weight of a rehabilitation exercise device attached to the arm, and a shoulder joint tracking device that is provided at one side of the shoulder rehabilitation apparatus, is connected to the gravity compensation spring, and applies a damping force corresponding to a force applied by the trainee, in a direction opposite to a direction in which the force is applied, to control a vertical movement of the shoulder rehabilitation apparatus.

A device for training and rehabilitation of a limb is provided. The device provides a board with an ability to magnetically levitate a movement base above the board to allow for controlled movement of a limb or other body part of a user needing training and rehabilitation in various directions.

An orthotic support comprises a shoulder section for encapsulating a first shoulder of a wearer, a glove section for conforming to at least a portion of the wearer's hand, and a sleeve section for conforming to the wearer's arm, the sleeve section connecting the shoulder section to the glove section. A resilient reinforcement extends from the glove section to the shoulder section, and at least a portion of the reinforcement extends in a spiral around the sleeve section, so that the reinforcement is configured to apply a rotational force to the wearer's arm, when worn, to urge a portion of the wearer's arm to rotate in a predetermined direction. The orthotic support may be usable to treat or prevent shoulder dislocation or subluxation, arm over-pronation or over-supination, wrist flexion or elbow flexion. An orthotic support may comprise a reinforcement with a first branch extending over an anterior portion of the sleeve section, and a second branch extending over a posterior portion of the sleeve section, so that the reinforcement is configured to urge the wearer's upper arm towards a rest position.

An orthosis provides a wearer at least one of forearm supination, forearm pronation, shoulder internal rotation, shoulder external rotation, shoulder adduction, shoulder abduction, shoulder flexion, shoulder extension, elbow flexion, and elbow extension. It includes a shoulder assembly adapted to be secured to a wearer's shoulder and an upper arm assembly connected to the shoulder assembly and adapted to be secured around a wearer's upper arm. The upper arm assembly defines an upper arm assembly axis. A wrist assembly is adapted to be secured around a wearer's wrist. The wrist assembly defines a wrist assembly axis. A splint arm assembly includes an upper splint arm, a lower splint arm, and a pivot pivotally connecting the upper splint arm to the lower splint arm. The upper splint arm adjustably connects to the upper arm assembly and the lower split, arm adjustably connects to the wrist assembly.

An upper torso orthotic device having multiple adjustment mechanisms configured to enable adaptation to a wide variety of body shapes, sizes and augmentation needs. The upper torso orthotic device including a body worn support frame member configured to dynamically distribute a weight of the upper torso orthotic device across the chest, shoulder and back of a user, and a limb augmentation member configured to augment a native strength of an arm of the user by overcoming the effects of gravity, the limb augmentation member including an adjustable shoulder assembly including at least one of a leveling mechanism, a clavicle retraction/protraction angle adjustment mechanism, a shoulder abduction angle adjustment mechanism, and a shoulder width adjustment mechanism.

A wearable device, includes a motor, a motor driver circuit, a memory, a sensor, and a processor. The memory is configured to store resistance force generation setting information indicating a difference between a reference angle and each joint angle and a corresponding relationship between respective duty ratios. The processor is configured to obtain, using the sensor, a joint angle of a user and calculate a difference between the reference angle and the obtained joint angle. The processor is configured to obtain a duty ratio corresponding to the calculated difference according to the resistance force generation setting information. The processor is further configured to provide a control signal having the obtained duty ratio to the motor driver circuit to perform control such that a control state of the motor driver circuit is switched between a first control state and a second control state.

A wearable module, for a wearable device, may include: a cover comprising a cover body and a cover hole penetratingly formed in the cover body; a support part including a support body made from a material that is more flexible than that of the cover, a support head that is connected to the support body and that can be attached/detached to/from the cover body, and an attachment part, which is connected to the support body, is positioned on the opposite side of the support head with respect to the support body, and passes through the cover hole to be attached to the outer surface of the support body; and an elastic layer of which a portion is fixed to the support part and which can move relative to the cover.

Provided is a wearable apparatus for assisting muscular strength including a first rotary member, a first side of which is located at an upper portion of a shoulder of a wearer and a second side of which is located at a back thereof, a second rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the first rotary member and a second side of which moves upward and downward, a first connecting part, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the second rotary member, and a second side of which is located at an outer side surface of the wearer, a third rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the first connecting part, and a fourth rotary member, a first side of which is coupled to the second side of the third rotary member.

A human-computer interface system having an exoskeleton including a plurality of structural members coupled to one another by at least one articulation configured to apply a force to a body segment of a user, the exoskeleton comprising a body-borne portion and a point-of-use portion; the body-borne portion configured to be operatively coupled to the point-of-use portion; and at least one locomotor module including at least one actuator configured to actuate the at least one articulation, the at least one actuator being in operative communication with the exoskeleton.

Provided is a system for muscle strength support. The system includes an exoskeleton which is configured to be attached to a body of a human during use of the system, and a control unit for controlling a supportive force provided by the exoskeleton during use of the system.
