Programmable range of motion system
A programmable range of motion system has a frame, a range of motion device, a controller, a computer and sensors. The frame has a seat to support a rehab patient. The range of motion device is attached to the frame. The actuator, servo or alternate mechanism selectively rotates the range of motion device through a range of motion for a rehab patient's limb. The controller controls the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism. The computer is connected electronically to the controller. The computer has a software, program or application including a plurality of programmable range of motion movements for exercising the limb. The sensor detects movements of the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism and records data back to the computer. The term actuator as used hereafter includes servo or alternate articulating mechanism.
Joint for rehabilitation device
A joint for a rehabilitation device and a rehabilitation device are disclosed. The joint is defined for operation between an end of a first member and an end of a second member. The joint enables the second member to pivot at the joint with respect to the first member. The joint includes a positioning mechanism for defining a set position from which the second member pivots. The joint also includes a restriction mechanism for restricting the degree of pivoting of the second member, from the set position. The joint further includes a biasing mechanism for biasing the second member such that it returns to the set position when an opposing force applied to the second member is less than the bias of the biasing mechanism. When the joint is in the set position, the biasing mechanism is configured such that no bias is applied to the second member.
REHABILITATION DEVICE AND ITS USE FOR EXERCISING THE SHOULDER REGION
The invention relates to a rehabilitation device adapted for rehabilitation and/or exercise of the shoulder region, the device being provided with a frame (1), which is connected to a power-generating apparatus (2), a back part (10), a seat part (11), and armrests (21). The rehabilitation device according to the invention is characterised in that it further comprises first support arms (23), second support arms (24), and motion arms (22), which communicate with said corresponding first and second support arms. The rehabilitation device according to the invention is further characterised in that said armrests (21) are articulated in said corresponding motion arms (22), and said power-generating apparatus (2) communicates with said motion arms (22). In addition, the invention relates to the use of the rehabilitation device for exercising the shoulder region.
Bath for exercising
Bath for exercising, the bath containing substantially vertical wall portion, and a suitably configured bath bottom, from which extends an exercise base, wherein the bath bottom is formed so that the bath is the deepest in the area where the person lying on the exercise base reaches when moving her legs, the bath is lower in the area where she reaches when moving her arms, wherein the bath bottom is shaped so that in the top view it follows the trajectory of the user can reach when moving her limbs.
SHOULDER MOTION EXERCISE DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE
A shoulder motion exercise device, kit, and method of use having a retainer, a plurality of connectors, an extender, and a slider. The device aids in the stretching and exercise of at least a shoulder and a portion of the torso.
Mag-lev limb training device
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.
Exercise machine having elastic exercise resistance cables
An exercise machine includes an upright mounting assembly having a top and a bottom spaced-apart from the top. The exercise machine includes a seat operatively connected to the upright mounting assembly. The exercise machine includes a first pair of space-apart pulley assemblies rotatably mounted adjacent to the top of the upright mounting assembly. The exercise machine includes a second pair of spaced-apart pulley assemblies rotatably mounted adjacent to the bottom of the upright mounting assembly. The exercise machine includes a plurality of exercise resistance cables connected at proximal end portions to the upright mounting assembly and extending around and outward, respectively, from the first and second pairs of spaced-apart pulley assemblies.
Cable system incorporated into a treadmill
A treadmill includes an opening formed in a surface of a running deck, a resistance mechanism incorporated into the running deck, and a cable threaded through the opening, where the cable includes a resistance end connected to the resistance mechanism and a pull end accessible through the running deck.
Modular fitness system and methods of use
A modular fitness system and associated methods of use are disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the system provides a plurality of elongate weighted segments, and a plurality of handle links sized and configured for accommodating a hand of a user. The segments and handle links are removably engagable with one another in series so as to form an exercise structure. Thus, the user is capable of selectively engaging at least one of the segments having a desired weight with at least one of the handle links in order to form an appropriate configuration of the exercise structure for performing one or more desired exercises therewith.
DUO WORKOUT IMPACT JACKET
A multi-use exercise garment is provided. The multi-use exercise garment comprises of jacket having a weight belt, resistance bands and adjustable ankle straps. Resistant bands can be attached through the holes on the front of the jacket and sand bags can be added to the weight belt for extra weight.
