Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute the training of function recovery for a disabled person by providing a musical scale generator, an error detector to detect a degree, with which a drawn circle is dislocated from a real circle, and a control part to control a musical scale in correspondence to the output of the error detector. CONSTITUTION:When a training person traces the real circle of a mat 1, on which the real circle is displayed, by a position signal generator 2 such as a mouse, etc., a position signal is sent from a position signal generator 2 to a computer 3 and a track to be traced by the training person is displayed on a display 31 of the computer 3. The real circle is drawn in advance on the display 31 and the training person knows difference between the track and real circle from the difference to the real circle. The computer 3 compares the position signal, which is supplied from the position signal generator 2, with the data of the real circle, which are stored in a memory 33, by a comparator 32 to be provided in an internal part. Then, an error signal is supplied to a musical scale generator 34 in order to show how much the inputted data are dislocated from the real circle. The musical scale generator 34 generates musical scales such as do, re, mi..., etc., and changes the musical scale according to the degree of the error.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a rehabilitation training device for physically disabled people to recover their functions.

[Prior Art] It has been known that even if functional impairment occurs due to a traffic accident or the like, a considerable degree of functional recovery can be achieved through rehabilitation. It is said that it is good for this rehabilitation to practice drawing circles accurately. In other words, drawing in a circle is said to be the most ideal exercise, as it uses all the muscles in your arm.
It is actually being carried out everywhere.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, in the past, people drew circles on paper with writing instruments such as pencils, and even though they knew that it was good for functional recovery, drawing circles every day was monotonous and boring. The reality is that it is not very effective because it becomes boring and loses its seriousness.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve such problems, the present invention includes a scale generator, an error detector that detects the extent to which a drawn circle deviates from a perfect circle, and an output of the error detector. It is equipped with a control section that controls the scale accordingly.

[Operation] As the drawn circle approaches a perfect circle, accurate scale notes are emitted.

[Embodiment] Figure 8 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In Figure 8, a perfect circle is displayed on the displayed mat 1. A trainee moves over the displayed perfect circle using a position signal generator 2 such as a mouse. When traced, the position signal from the position signal generator 2 is sent to the computer 3.
The trajectory traced by the trainee is shown on the display 31 of the computer 3. A perfect circle is drawn in advance on the display 31 of the computer 3, and the trainee can tell the difference between it and a perfect circle from the difference. can.

On the other hand, the computer 3 compares the position signal supplied from the position signal generator 2 with the perfect circle data stored in the memory 33 using a comparator 32 included therein.
An error signal indicating how much the input data deviates from a perfect circle is supplied to the scale generator 34. scale generator 3
For example, 4 is C.

, Mi..., etc., and when this error signal is supplied to the scale generator 34, the scale changes depending on the degree of error.

Therefore, the trainee can know the deviation from a perfect circle from the difference in musical scales, and can practice without looking at the screen.

The device for inputting the trajectory traced by the trainee into the computer 3 is not limited to the above-mentioned mouse, but there are various other devices such as a combination of a land tablet and a pen, a device that applies an alternating electric field to a semiconductor film and calculates the position from the potential distribution. A position signal generator can be used.

Note that it is effective if the size of the circle can be changed as the training progresses, and as the training progresses further, it may be possible to trace the kanji. In this case, the mat 1 is provided with a liquid crystal display, and a kanji ROM is also incorporated.
All you have to do is display the model kanji on the display. Also, as training progresses, the scales generated from the scale generator are, for example, "
If you use well-known songs such as ``Hinomaru,''``Sayaharupu,'' and ``Hakone no Yama,'' and change to more difficult songs as the training progresses, you can achieve even greater effects.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in this invention, when the trainee traces the model, the scale is changed according to the deviation.
Even with monotonous training, the trainee does not get bored, so the rehabilitation effect can be sufficiently improved.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claims] A mat on which a model is displayed, a position signal generator that generates a position signal of the traced part by tracing the mat, and an error signal based on the error between the position signal and the data of the model. A rehabilitation training device equipped with a comparator that generates a scale, and a scale generator that generates a scale that changes according to an error signal.
