摘要:
The invention provides a method and apparatus to enable a user to perform upper extremity exercises. The apparatus includes an arm with one end connected to a base to securely support the arm while locating the other end adjacent to the user, proximate the user's upper extremities. The arm is formed with a plurality of joints at or between its ends, each joint having one or more rotational degrees of freedom while providing resistance to rotational movement in the one or more degrees of freedom, such that the free end of the arm can be moved in three dimensional space, and such that the arm is self-supporting. A manipulandum assembly including a plurality of manipulanda is attached to the free end of the arm, each manipulandum being positioned within hand grasping range of the user, and each manipulandum being or representing an object encountered in an upper extremity activity of the user's daily life. Sensors on the arm, joints or manipulanda sense movement or force, and relay signals to a processing device in order to sample, display, store and process the signals into kinematic or kinetic variables. These variables may be processed to control software programs such as computer games and to allow quantification of performance for outcome evaluation of therapy regimes.
摘要(中):
本发明提供一种使用户能够执行上肢练习的方法和装置。 该装置包括臂,其一端连接到基座以牢固地支撑臂,同时将邻近使用者的另一端定位在使用者的上肢附近。 臂在其端部之间或之间形成有多个接头,每个接头具有一个或多个旋转自由度,同时在一个或多个自由度中提供对旋转运动的阻力,使得臂的自由端可以 在三维空间中移动,并且使得手臂是自支撑的。 包括多个操纵的操纵组件附接到臂的自由端,每个操纵位于使用者的手抓握范围内,并且每个操作是或表示在使用者的日常生活的上肢活动中遇到的物体。 手臂,关节或操纵部件上的传感器感测运动或力,并将信号中继到处理装置,以便将信号采样,显示,存储和处理成运动学或动力学变量。 这些变量可以被处理以控制诸如计算机游戏的软件程序,并且允许定量治疗方案的结果评估的性能。
