By this configuration, the vertical support 241 of the upper frame 240 is moved in the hollow of the vertical support 211 of the lower frame 210, and then moved by the fixing screw 293 and the closing cap 291, or the like. The position is fixed.

Alternatively, the upper and lower frames 240 and 210 of the present embodiment may be implemented by relative movement by hydraulic, pneumatic or power mechanism.

Figure 19 illustrates the relative movement of the alternative upper and lower frames 240, 210 of the present invention.

A gas spring 295 is installed between the vertical supports 241 of the upper frame 240 and the vertical supports 211 of the lower frame 210, and the gas springs 295 are movable piston rods 295a on one side thereof. The pushbutton 295c is connected to the free end of the piston rod 295a via a flexible member 295b such as a wire cable or a flexible hose. Here, the flexible member 295b may be concealed and installed inside the upper frame 240 or the lower frame 210.

With this structure, the piston rod 295a can be moved up and down by the push operation of the pushbutton 295c, and when the pushbutton 295c is released, the piston rod 295a is stopped and its position is stopped. Is fixed.

As such, when the relative movement of the upper and lower frames 240 and 210 of the present invention is implemented by the automatic method, height adjustment of the support unit 270 may be more easily performed according to the user's body shape.

The third embodiment of the present invention configured as described above is to protect the user's spine by the spine band (275a) of the body support 275, the user by the upper and lower hook belt attached to both sides of the spine band The torso of the body can be maintained firmly upright, and the upper and lower frames 240, 210 are relatively movable structure to easily adjust the height according to the user's height, and the adjusted position firmly By firmly fixing and maintaining the user, the user can perform the whole body walking exercise and the like more effectively in the state where the spine is upright.

The present invention as described above, not only firmly and stably fix the upper body portion of the elderly and rehabilitation patients to support the weight of the elderly and rehabilitation patients to perform the whole-body walking exercise and the like in the upright state It has a subsidiary effect.

In addition, the present invention can be very easy to wear the support unit in the elderly and rehabilitation patients using the walking exercise device can improve its ease of use.

In addition, the present invention is to press and protect the user's spine with the spine band of the body support and to maintain the user's torso in an upright state with the upper and lower hook belts attached to both sides of the spine band, the user's height By adjusting the height easily and firmly fixing and maintaining the adjusted position, the user can more effectively perform the whole body walking motion and the like while the spine is upright.

In the above, specific preferred embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and any person having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and spirit of the present invention as claimed in the claims may make various modifications and variations. Implementation will be possible.
