    Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic machine which is used in treadmill therapy (walking therapy) of paraparetic and hemiparetic patients and which automatically guides the legs on the treadmill. Said machine consists of a driven and controlled orthotic device which guides the legs in a physiological pattern of movement, a treadmill and a relief mechanism. The knee and hip joints of the orthotic device are each provided with a drive. Said orthotic device is stabilized on a treadmill with stabilizing means in such a manner that the patient does not have to keep his/her equilibrium. The orthotic device can be adjusted in height and can be adapted to different patients.

    Abstract: A device for adjusting the prestress of an elastic means (22) around a predetermined tension or position (9) can especially be used to adjust height of and the relief force acting on a weight (30). A mechanic adjustment unit (40) is connected in parallel to the elastic means (22) to preadjust the value of the predetermined tension comprising a movable portion (41; 142) engaging the connection portion (25) between elastic means (22) and adjustment unit (40) and a force exerting element (50) being attached at said movable portion (41; 142). The mechanic adjustment unit (40) is in an instable equilibrium position at said predetermined tension or position (9), the movement of the movable portion (41; 142) being such that the force exerting element (50) adds an adjustment or compensation force upon deviation of the predetermined tension or position (9) of the elastic means (22).
