DEVICE FOR ARM-STRENGTH TRAINING
A training device useful at least for exercises for bicep workouts and strengthening is configurable for multiple types of movement and use. The training device has a frame, two arm cradles attached in variable configurations, and a multi-use strap. The arm cradles are removable from the frame for re-configuration or for storage and transport. To configure the training device for compact storage and transportation, the arm cradles can be detached, nestled into the inner side of the frame, and wrapped by the strap. To attain various workout configurations, the arm cradles can be interchanged on the frame, reoriented on the frame, and adjusted to preferred lateral positions on the frame.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR USING SENSOR DATA TO DETECT JOINT MISALIGNMENT OF A USER USING A TREATMENT DEVICE TO PERFORM A TREATMENT PLAN
A method that includes receiving treatment data associated with a user capable of using a treatment device to perform a treatment plan. The method also includes receiving user related data (URD) associated with the use and receiving alignment data associated with the user while the user engages in at least one activity. The method also includes identifying, based on at least the treatment data, the URD, and the alignment data, at least one alignment characteristic associated with the user and modifying at least one aspect of the treatment plan in response to receiving, from a healthcare professional, treatment plan input including at least one modification to the at least one aspect of the treatment plan.
METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PROVIDING SUPPORT WHEN EXERCISING
A device for providing support to a user performing a physical exercise is provided. The device includes a frame including a first support strut and a second support strut and an elastic strap coupled to a first end of the first support strut and a first end of the second support strut. The elastic strap has sufficient tension to provide support to a user's body weight by supporting a chest of the user when the user performs a push-up using the device. In embodiments, the device includes a base support coupled to the frame. A sleeve of material may be disposed around a portion of the strap that is between the first support strut and the second support strut.
Virtual scene interactive rehabilitation training robot based on lower limb connecting rod model and force sense information and control method thereof
A virtual scene interactive rehabilitation training robot based on a lower limb connecting rod model and force sense information and a control method thereof are disclosed. The thigh, calf and foot of a leg of a human body are equated to a three-connecting rod series-connected mechanical arm. A human body leg gravity compensation model is constructed. The leg posture of a patient is detected by Kinect. An interaction force between a limb of the patient and a rehabilitation robot is detected by a force sensor on the rehabilitation robot. Then, a progressive rehabilitation training method is designed for the model. According to a set weight reduction ratio, the motion of the rehabilitation robot is controlled by judging plantar force data.
WEARABLE DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF
A wearable device may include a motor, a motor driver circuit, a frame connected to the motor, the frame to be worn on the body of the user to support the body, a processor configured to generate a control signal to control an electrical connection in the motor driver circuit, and a sensor configured to sense a body motion of the user. The processor is further configured to provide an exercise load through the frame according to a speed of the sensed body motion by controlling, based on the speed of the body motion, a changing ratio per time between a first control state in which the electrical connection in the motor driver circuit is a closed loop and a second control state in which the electrical connection in the motor driver circuit is an open loop.
Abdominal exercise device
An abdominal exercise device includes a frame comprising top, middle, and bottom frame sections. The middle frame section has a curved shape for creating a teeter-totter movement during exercise. The device includes a headrest connected to the bottom frame section, a plurality of connectors for connecting elastic bands to the frame, and an elastic band connected to at least two connectors. The two ends of the elastic band are connected to two straps. The device creates the teeter-totter movement to exercise the abdominal muscles in response to a person lying down in supine position with the back of the head on the headrest and the feet in the two straps, the person applying a downward pressure with the feet to the straps to move the headrest from a resting position, and the person removing the downward pressure to allow the headrest to go back to the resting position.
MOTION ASSIST CRANE DEVICE
A motion assist crane device can include a base, a support tower extending upwardly from the base, a counterbalance beam attached to the support tower at a position between the ends of the counterbalance beam by a hinge, a tether attached to a first end of the counterbalance beam, the tether configured to attach to an arm of a user, and one or more weights positioned on a second end of the counterbalance beam. A method for assisting motion of a user's arm can include providing the device, attaching the tether to the user's arm, and moving the user's arm, wherein the movement is at least partially supported by the weights.
EXTREMITY FLEXION AND EXTENSION EXERCISER DEVICES
An extremity flexion and extension exerciser device is described. The device includes a joint supported by a base, a rotating arm mounted on the joint, the rotating arm including a first side extending from the joint in a first direction, and a second side extending from the joint in a second direction opposite the first direction, a handle or paddle attached to a distal end of the first side of the rotating arm, and one or more weights are selectively attachable to the second side of the rotating arm.
EXERCISE AID FOR A TREADMILL
An apparatus and method of use thereof for exercising on a treadmill, the apparatus includes a frame that mounts to handles of the treadmill. The frame is an arch shape having opposite a proximal bar and a distal bar, and a curved portion extends between adjacent ends of the proximal bar and the distal bar. The proximal bar is coupled to the handles. A protective cushioned seat extends between the proximal bar and the distal bar. To use the apparatus, an individual can unhook a proximal end of the seat from the proximal bar, position the seat behind the buttocks and between the legs, reengage the proximal end of the seat to the proximal bar, and can then walk or run on the treadmill.
DIGITAL STRENGTH TRAINING
An information related to the position of an actuator coupled to a cable which is coupled to a motor is received. A filter is used to provide an input to a motor controller coupled to the motor, to adjust torque on the motor such that a strength curve is implemented relative to the position of the actuator.
