Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2015226701
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a walking training device with improved workability in mounting and dismounting a walking assist device.SOLUTION: In a walking training device 1, tension means A and B are used for eliminating an impact of the weight of a walking assist device 2 during rehabilitation. In a configuration such as this, a situation may occur in which the walking assist device 2 is not easily mounted on a leg part L of a user U due to an impact of the tensile force of tension means A and B. Therefore, tensile loads by the tension means A and B are appropriately changed between during a rehabilitation operation and while a rehabilitation operation is not performed. In the walking training device 1 of the present invention, attention is paid especially to the rehabilitation preparation time when the walking assist device 2 is mounted on the leg part L. In this case, control is executed by a load relief switching part 33a so that the upward tensile loads by the tension means A and B are equal to or smaller than the force to support the weight of the walking assist device 2.
