ACTIVE ORTHOSIS FOR THE MOTION NEUROLOGICAL REHABILITATION OF LOWER LIMBS, SYSTEM COMPRISING SUCH ORTHOSIS AND PROCESS FOR OPERATING SUCH SYSTEM

摘要

An active sling (1) and a process are described, for the motion neurological rehabilitation of lower limbs, the sling (1) being equipped with six degrees of freedom and comprising: an elongated supporting structure (92); a first supporting and handling structure (201, 160) on the sagittal plane of the femur of the patient (1'); a second supporting and handling structure (228, 242, 261) on the sagittal plane of at least one tibia of the patient (1')/ and a third supporting and handling structure (265, 275) on the sagittal plane of a foot, with respect to the tibia, of the patient (1'); the elongated supporting structure (92) is so rigid as to allow the first, second and third supporting and handling structures (201,160; 228,242, 261; 265, 275) to perform mutually related movements, and is also adjustable to be suited to sizes of the patient (1')·
