Abstract:
Apparatus for supporting the body of a person in an upright position to relieve the load of the person's legs, in particular for therapeutic walking exercises, including a seat ring suspended by a cable from a trolley movable on an overhead track. The seat ring has in its rear section an inwardly projecting body support member shaped to engage below the tuber ischii of the person's body and said seat ring having a front section provided with an adjustable pressure pad projecting inwardly from the seat ring front section in opposite relation to the support member, which adjustable pressure pad can be pressed against the symphysis of the pubic bones of the body resting on the body support of the seat ring.
Abstract:
A system having an arrangement for supporting an arm of a user is disclosed. The arrangement has an actuator, which is connected to a shoulder element by a joint chain. The joint chain is designed to extend along the shoulder blade of a shoulder of the user and to introduce vertically acting forces into the shoulder element. Moreover, the joint chain is guided by a flexible structure that extends over the shoulder of the user. By virtue of the deformability of the flexible structure, it is possible to ensure that a lifting of the shoulder, resulting from a lifting of a hand of the user, is not impeded.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A system can include a base configured to support a lower half of a human body. The system can also include a headrest elevated relative to the base, wherein the headrest is disposed adjacent to a proximal end of the base, where the headrest is configured to support a head of the human body. The system can further include a back platform having a first end and a second end, where the first end is coupled to the base, where the second end is disposed adjacent to the headrest, and where the back platform has a curvature, where the back platform is configured to support a torso of the human body. The system can also include a vibrating mechanism in communication with the back platform, where vibrations generated by the vibrating mechanism translate to the back platform.
