Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electric start-up exerciser which enables a user to perform start-up training and walking training.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Standing up and walking training are indispensable for maintaining the walking function or for recovering the walking function for persons who have difficulty walking such as elderly people and patients with serious injuries. For this reason, most of the work is performed with the help of a caregiver, and otherwise, it is carried out using a helper member or the like provided on the side frame of the bed.

[0003]

However, because the helper must be assisted, when the helper is busy, the training cannot be performed, and the caregiver could not rely on him forever. However, training may not progress and such a request may delay the recovery of function. Further, since the assisting member provided on the side frame has a function as a clue when getting on and off the bed, it cannot always be said that the function for performing the function recovery training is sufficient. The present invention has been proposed in view of such a background, and an object of the present invention is to provide an electric stand-up trainer capable of self-starting training and walking training at any time.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is directed to a bogie, a pillar standing on the bogie, and a top of the pillar, which is directed toward the rear side of the bogie and is rotatable. A movable strut attached to the movable strut, and an electric actuator for undulating the movable strut is interposed between the movable strut and the base end side of the strut, and the user's upper body is attached to the movable strut tip. An upper body holding means for supporting is provided, and this upper body holding means has a front part and a side member so as to surround the upper body of the user, and supports both upper limbs via the side member on the side of the side member tip. It has an upper limb holding frame, and this upper limb holding frame has a bending portion corresponding to the elbow,
A feature is that the lift seat for suspending a user's buttocks is suspended via the suspending means on the bent portion.

[0005]

[Function] The user moves to the bedside, throws his foot to the floor, and sits on the bottom. At this time, it is advisable to lay the lift seat under the user's buttocks. The caregiver inserts the trolley of the electric rising exerciser from the side of the bed to the bottom of the bottom so that the upper body of the user is surrounded by the front part of the upper body holding means and the side member. The user can place the upper limb on the upper limb holding frame with the upper limb via the armpit member with the elbow on the bent portion of the upper limb holding frame. Then, by hanging the lift sheet laid under the buttocks of the user on the hanging means of the bent portion of the upper limb holding frame,
The preparation for training is complete. The user can activate the electric actuator and lift the movable column to raise the upper body holding means, and lift the upper part of the body above the bottom while the buttocks are placed on the lift seat to take a standing posture. When the hips are dropped on the bottom again, the electric actuator is operated in reverse, and the movable support column is moved in the direction of falling.
Since such an operation can be performed by the user himself / herself by operating the electric actuator, the user's independence can be evoked and the recovery of the function can be promoted. By repeating the above operation, the stand-up training can be advanced. Then, when the standing-up training progresses, the walking training can be carried out from the standing-up state while supporting the upper body by the upper body holding means.
