WEIGHT-BEARING WALKING LIFT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/121031
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To allow a travel base to move on its own in a manner matching the walking pace of a user undergoing walking rehabilitation without requiring the user to manually operate the travel base according to his/her walking pace, and to prevent the user from being pulled forward or backward by the travel base when the traveling speed of the travel base does not match the walking pace of the user. [Solution] A hoisting device 30 is suspended in a manner so as to be movable forward and backward within a prescribed range relative to a travel base 20 that is capable of moving forward and backward by itself, and a control device 50 is provided on the travel base 20. When the hoisting device 30 moves forward relative to the travel base 20 within the prescribed range due to the user T advancing forward, the control device 50 causes the travel base 20 to move forward, and when the hoisting device 30 moves backward relative to the travel base 20 within the prescribed range due to the travel base 20 moving forward faster than the user T, the control device 50 stops the movement of the travel base 20. Thus, the travel base 20 moves forward so as to match the walking pace of the user T.
