Among the weight support means of the present invention, the moving body 220 moves the patient supported by the harness in the forward and backward direction while moving in the front and back direction (the front and back direction of the patient performing rehabilitation exercise). The present invention is characterized by controlling the degree of gravity compensation (the degree to which the patient's weight is pulled upward) applied to the patient by adjusting the degree of upward and downward elevation of the wire connected to the harness. In other words, the patient's body weight (W) is made up of the sum of the force (W1) pulled upward by the wire and the force (W2) supported by the foot tread of the gait rehabilitation device (W=W1+W2).
상기 결합로드의 하부홈에는 구동롤러(225)가 구비되어서 구동롤러가 회전함에 의해 상기 이동체(220)는 결합로드의 길이방향을 따라 이동하게 된다. 상기 이동체(220)의 내부에는 상기 구동롤러에 회전력을 전달하기 위해 회전동력을 발생시키는 모터를 더 포함하며, 상기 와이어를 감거나 풀기 위한 윈치를 더 포함할 수 있다.A driving roller 225 is provided in the lower groove of the coupling rod, and as the driving roller rotates, the moving body 220 moves along the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod. The interior of the moving body 220 may further include a motor that generates rotational power to transmit rotational force to the driving roller, and may further include a winch for winding or unwinding the wire.
상기 결합로드(210)는 상기 상단프레임 중 전후방향에 수직하게 배치되는 제1상단프레임(182)과 제2상단프레임(184)의 중앙 지점에 연결된다. 그리고, 결합로드와 제1 및 제2상단프레임 사이에는 두 개의 로드셀이 구비된다. 제1로드셀(252)은 상기 결합로드(210)와 상기 제1상단프레임(182) 사이에 구비되어, 결합로드가 제1상단프레임(182)에 가하는 힘을 감지하고, 제2로드셀(254)은 상기 결합로드(210)와 상기 제2상단프레임(184) 사이에 구비되어, 결합로드가 제2상단프레임(184)에 가하는 힘을 감지하게 된다.The coupling rod 210 is connected to the center point of the first upper frame 182 and the second upper frame 184, which are arranged perpendicularly in the front and rear directions among the upper frames. Additionally, two load cells are provided between the coupling rod and the first and second upper frames. The first load cell 252 is provided between the coupling rod 210 and the first upper frame 182, detects the force applied by the coupling rod to the first upper frame 182, and the second load cell 254 is provided between the coupling rod 210 and the second upper frame 184 to sense the force applied by the coupling rod to the second upper frame 184.
그리고, 본 발명은 사용자에 의하여 보행재활장치에게 주어지는 동작 명령을 입력받는 입력수단(140)과, 상기 측면프레임에 구비되는 모니터(160)와 상기 입력수단에 입력된 명령에 따라 보행재활 동작을 수행하게 하는 제어부를 더 포함하여, 본 발명의 보행재활장치의 동작을 제어하게 된다.In addition, the present invention includes an input means 140 that receives an operation command given to the gait rehabilitation device by the user, a monitor 160 provided on the side frame, and a gait rehabilitation operation performed according to the command input to the input means. It further includes a control unit that controls the operation of the gait rehabilitation device of the present invention.
보행재활을 시작하는 것은 환자의 족저부가 상기 발 디딤부에 닿은 상태에서 시작하게 되고, 이때부터 상기 체중지지수단이 환자의 체중 일부를 부담하면서 보행재활 동작을 수행하게 된다. 즉, 환자의 족저부가 상기 발 디딤부에 닿은 상태에서, 상기 체중지지수단이 환자의 체중 일부를 부담하면서 보행재활 동작을 수행하게 되는데, 보행재활 동작 중 상기 체중지지수단에 의한 체중이 부담되는 정도(중력보상정도, 이하 '체중 지지 비율'이라고 함)을 모니터에 표시할 수 있다. 체중 지지 비율은, 체중지지수단이 환자의 실제 몸무게 중 일부를 부담하는 힘의 비율이다. 즉, 환자의 족저부가 상기 발 디딤부에 닿은 상태에서, 상기 체중지지수단이 환자의 체중 일부를 부담하면서 보행재활 동작을 수행하게 되는데, 보행재활 동작 중 상기 체중지지수단에 의한 체중 지지 비율(RA)을 아래 [식 1]로 계산하여 상기 모니터에 표시할 수 있다.Gait rehabilitation begins with the patient's foot touching the footrest, and from this point on, the weight support means performs the gait rehabilitation movement while bearing part of the patient's body weight. That is, in a state in which the patient's foot is in contact with the footrest, the weight support means performs a gait rehabilitation operation while bearing part of the patient's body weight. The extent to which the body weight is borne by the weight support means during the gait rehabilitation operation is (The degree of gravity compensation, hereinafter referred to as 'weight bearing ratio') can be displayed on the monitor. The weight bearing ratio is the ratio of the force with which the weight support means bears a portion of the patient's actual body weight. That is, in a state where the patient's foot is in contact with the footrest, the weight support means performs a gait rehabilitation operation while bearing part of the patient's body weight. During the gait rehabilitation operation, the weight support ratio (R) by the weight support means is A ) can be calculated using [Equation 1] below and displayed on the monitor.
[식 1] 체중 지지 비율(RA)= [체중지지수단이 지지하는 환자의 몸무게(fA)]÷[환자의 실제 몸무게(fP)][Equation 1] Weight support ratio (R A )= [Patient's weight supported by weight support means (f A )] ÷ [Patient's actual weight (f P )]
그리고, 환자의 좌우 족저부가 상기 발 디딤부 각각에 작용하는 족저부 또한 계산하여 모니터에 표시할 수 있는데, 그리고, 상기 와이어에 작용하는 힘은, 상기 이동체가 상기 각각의 로드셀에 가하는 힘과 와이어와 하네스 무게 등의 요소를 고려하여 상기 와이어 및 하네스에 의해 지지되는 힘을 정확히 산출하도록 하며, 산출을 위한 필요한 알고리즘을 구비하도록 한다.In addition, the plantar part of the patient's left and right foot acting on each of the foot stepping parts can be calculated and displayed on the monitor, and the force acting on the wire is the force applied by the moving body to each load cell and the wire and The force supported by the wire and harness is accurately calculated by considering factors such as the weight of the harness, and the necessary algorithm for calculation is provided.
도 13을 참고하면, 보행시 바닥을 지지하고 있는 발에 모든 하중이 가해지게 되므로 체중지지시스템이 보조하는 무게를 제외한 환자의 몸무게는 해당 발의 족저부에 가해지게 된다. 환자의 좌우 족저부가 상기 롤러부에 닿는 구간에서 상기 체중 지지 비율을 계산하고, 좌우 족저부 각각의 체중 지지 비율의 비율을 계산하여 상기 모니터에 표시함으로써, 보행재활시 좌우 균형을 측정할 수 있도록 하며, 이러한 데이터를 실시간으로 상기 모니터를 통해 표시하여 보행 재활 자세를 실시간으로 교정할 수 있으며, 또한 상기 데이터를 재활치료에 계속하여 수집하여 효과적인 재활과정에 활용할 수도 있다. 이때, 좌우 발 디딤부 각각에 의해, 환자의 좌우 족저부에 가해지는 힘은, 아래 [식 2]로 계산할 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 13, when walking, all load is applied to the foot supporting the floor, so the patient's body weight, excluding the weight assisted by the weight support system, is applied to the plantar portion of the foot. The weight bearing ratio is calculated in the section where the patient's left and right plantar parts touch the roller unit, and the ratio of the weight bearing ratio of each left and right plantar part is calculated and displayed on the monitor, so that the left and right balance can be measured during gait rehabilitation. , these data can be displayed through the monitor in real time to correct the gait rehabilitation posture in real time, and the data can also be continuously collected during rehabilitation treatment and utilized in an effective rehabilitation process. At this time, the force applied to the left and right plantar parts of the patient by each of the left and right foot stepping parts can be calculated using [Equation 2] below.
[식 2] 족저부에 가해지는 힘 = 환자의 실제 몸무게 - 체중지지수단이 지지하는 환자의 몸무게[Equation 2] Force applied to the plantar area = actual weight of the patient - weight of the patient supported by the weight support means
환자의 좌우 발 디딤부가 상기 롤러부에 닿는 구간에서 상기 체중 지지 비율을 계산하되, 좌우 족저부 각각의 체중 지지 비율을 계산하고, 이를 실시간 통신으로 전송하여 보행 분석 이미지화 하거나 보행 추이 분석 그래프화로 시각화하여 상기 모니터에 표시함으로써, 보행재활시 좌우 균형을 측정할 수 있도록 할 수 있다.Calculate the weight support ratio in the section where the patient's left and right foot treads contact the roller part, calculate the weight support ratio of each left and right plantar part, and transmit this through real-time communication to image gait analysis or visualize it through gait trend analysis graphing. By displaying it on the monitor, left and right balance can be measured during gait rehabilitation.
여기서, 보행 분석 이미지의 한 예로는, 좌우 족저부를 구분하고 좌우 족저부에 가해지는 힘을 투명도를 조절하는 방법이 가능하다. 그리고, 보행 추이 분석 그래프는 시간에 따라 족저부에 가해지는 힘의 변화를 그래프로 표시하고 극대점을 수치로 표시하는 방법이 가능하다.Here, as an example of a gait analysis image, it is possible to distinguish between left and right plantar parts and adjust the transparency of the force applied to the left and right plantar parts. In addition, the gait trend analysis graph is capable of displaying the change in force applied to the foot of the foot over time and displaying the maximum point as a number.
이하에서는 본 발명의 보행재활장치를 이용하여 보행재활을 하는 과정을 설명한다. Below, the process of gait rehabilitation using the gait rehabilitation device of the present invention will be described.
도 4 내지 도 6과 같이, 앉아있는 환자에게 전신 하네스를 착용시키고 와이어에 리프트 고리를 체결한 후 리프트 입력수단(C, 콘트롤러)의 상하 버튼을 이용해 환자를 기립시키고 발 고정부 위치로 천천히 밀어서 이동시키고, 콘트롤러의 '하'버튼을 눌러 족저부를 발 고정부에 닿도록 이동시킨다. 도 5에서 콘트롤러(c)의 위쪽 방향 화살표는 하네스를 위로 이동시켜 환자를 기립시키는 것을 의미하며, 도 6에서 콘트롤러(c)의 아래쪽 방향 화살표는 하네스를 아래로 이동시키면서 환자의 발이 발 디딤부에 닿도록 하는 것을 의미한다. As shown in Figures 4 to 6, after putting a full body harness on a sitting patient and fastening the lift ring to the wire, use the up and down buttons of the lift input means (C, controller) to make the patient stand and slowly push the patient to the position of the foot fixer. and press the ‘Down’ button on the controller to move the plantar part so that it touches the foot fixing part. In Figure 5, the upward arrow on the controller (c) means moving the harness upward to make the patient stand, and in Figure 6, the downward arrow on the controller (c) means moving the harness downward while the patient's foot rests on the footrest. It means to reach.
그런데, 본 발명은 환자의 발이 발 디딤부에 닿은 후 어느 정도 더 하네스가 더 하향 이동하여 발 디딤부가 체중의 일부를 지지한 순간 보행재활을 시작하는 것이 특징이다. 즉, 보행의 시작 시점은 모니터에 표시되는 환자의 몸무게 보상 비율을 확인하고 목표로 하는 체중보상 비율에 부합하면 하향이동을 멈추고 보행재활치료를 시작한다. 체중지지수단이 부담해야 하는 체중의 정도를 미리 결정해 두고 이 값에 해당하는 지점에서 보행재활을 시작하도록 하는 것이다.However, the present invention is characterized in that after the patient's foot touches the footrest, the harness moves further downward to a certain extent and gait rehabilitation begins the moment the footrest supports part of the body weight. In other words, the starting point of walking is to check the patient's weight compensation ratio displayed on the monitor, and when it meets the target weight compensation ratio, downward movement is stopped and gait rehabilitation treatment is started. The degree of weight that the weight support means must bear is determined in advance, and gait rehabilitation begins at a point corresponding to this value.
다시 말해, 보행 재활치료를 위치로 이동하는 상태에서는 공중에 들어올려진 상태로 중력저항 없이 환자의 몸무게 100%를 체중지지수단으로 지지하도록 한다. 상기 체중지지수단이 환자의 체중 전체를 지지한 상태에서 환자를 전방으로 이동시킨 후, 상기 와이어를 하향 이동시키면서 환자의 족저부가 상기 발 디딤부에 닿아서 상기 체중 지지 비율이 미리 설정된 값에 해당하는 순간, 상기 와이어의 하향 동작을 멈추고 보행재활을 시작하도록 한다.In other words, when moving to a position for walking rehabilitation treatment, 100% of the patient's body weight is supported by a weight support device while lifted in the air without gravity resistance. After moving the patient forward while the weight support means supports the entire body weight of the patient, while moving the wire downward, the bottom of the patient's foot touches the footrest so that the weight support ratio corresponds to a preset value. At that moment, stop the downward motion of the wire and begin gait rehabilitation.
이상 설명에서는 로드셀이 두개 장착된 구조의 보행재활장치를 예로 들어 설명하였다. 그러나, 본 발명의 다른 실시예에 따른 보행재활장치에서는 로드셀을 하나로 구성하였다. 도 9는 본 발명의 다른 실시형태에 따라 로드셀을 하나로 구성한 체중지지수단을 구비한 보행재활장치의 사시도이며, 도 10과 도 11은 도 9의 실시형태에 따른 보행재활장치의 일부 상세도이다.In the above description, a gait rehabilitation device equipped with two load cells is used as an example. However, in the gait rehabilitation device according to another embodiment of the present invention, the load cell is configured as one. Figure 9 is a perspective view of a gait rehabilitation device equipped with a body weight support means comprised of a load cell according to another embodiment of the present invention, and Figures 10 and 11 are partial detailed views of the gait rehabilitation device according to the embodiment of Figure 9.
도 9 내지 도 11의 도면을 참조하면, 본 실시예에 따른 보행재활장치 역시, 하단프레임(110)과 측면프레임(120)으로 이루어지는 프레임과, 사용자의 발이 놓여지는 발 디딤부(130)와, 하단프레임의 상측에 구비되어 발 디딤부가 이동하게 되는 롤러부(140) 등을 포함하고 있으며, 상기 측면프레임의 모서리에 구비되는 수직지지바(170)와 상기 수직지지바 상단에서 횡방향으로 연결되는 사각형상의 상단프레임(180)과, 상기 상단프레임에 연결되는 체중지지수단(200)을 포함한다. Referring to the drawings of FIGS. 9 to 11, the gait rehabilitation device according to this embodiment also includes a frame consisting of a lower frame 110 and a side frame 120, a footrest 130 on which the user's foot is placed, and It includes a roller unit 140, which is provided on the upper side of the lower frame and moves the footrest, and is connected to a vertical support bar 170 provided at the corner of the side frame in the transverse direction at the top of the vertical support bar.

그리고, 상기 체중지지수단(200)은 결합로드(210)와 이동체(220)와 와이어(260) 및 하네스(280)등을 포함하고 있다. 상기 결합로드(210)는 상면이 상단프레임과 결합되고, 그 하면에는 길이방향을 따라 하부홈이 형성된다. 상기 이동체(220)는 상기 결합로드의 하부홈(214)에 결합되고 결합로드의 길이방향을 따라 이동하게 된다. 이동체의 이동으로 아래쪽에서 지지되는 환자의 이동이 가능하게 된다. 이를 위해, 상기 이동체 하부에는 상하 방향 이동가능하게 연결되는 와이어(260) 및 하네스(280)가 위치한다. 상기 와이어는 이동체 내부에 구비되는 윈치 등에 의해 감김과 풀림을 반복함에 따라 상기 와이어는 지면에 수직한 상하방향으로 이동가능하다.In addition, the weight support means 200 includes a coupling rod 210, a moving body 220, a wire 260, and a harness 280. The upper surface of the coupling rod 210 is coupled to the upper frame, and a lower groove is formed along the longitudinal direction on the lower surface. The moving body 220 is coupled to the lower groove 214 of the coupling rod and moves along the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod. The movement of the moving object allows the movement of the patient supported from below. For this purpose, a wire 260 and a harness 280 connected to be movable in the vertical direction are located at the lower part of the mobile body. As the wire is repeatedly wound and unwound by a winch provided inside the moving body, the wire can move in an up and down direction perpendicular to the ground.
상기 결합로드의 하부홈에는 구동롤러(225)가 구비되어서 구동롤러가 회전함에 의해 상기 이동체(220)는 결합로드의 길이방향을 따라 이동하게 된다. 상기 이동체(220)의 내부에는 상기 구동롤러(R)에 회전력을 전달하기 위해 회전동력을 발생시키는 모터와 감속기 등을 포함하는 모터유닛(M)을 포함하며, 상기 와이어를 감거나 풀기 위한 윈치를 더 포함할 수 있다.A driving roller 225 is provided in the lower groove of the coupling rod, and as the driving roller rotates, the moving body 220 moves along the longitudinal direction of the coupling rod. The interior of the moving body 220 includes a motor unit (M) including a motor and a reducer that generates rotational power to transmit rotational force to the driving roller (R), and a winch for winding or unwinding the wire. More may be included.
그리고, 본 실시예에서는 상기 결합로드(210)와 이동체(220) 사이에는 단일 로드셀(250)이 위치한다. 더 구체적으로는 상기 결합로드 내부에는 길이방향으로 이동하는 구동롤러(R)가 결합된 롤러몸체가 구비되는데, 상기 단일 로드셀(250)은 상기 이동체(220)와 롤러몸체 사이에 위치하여 이동체가 상기 롤러몸체(결합로드)에 가하는 힘을 감지하게 된다.And, in this embodiment, a single load cell 250 is located between the coupling rod 210 and the moving body 220. More specifically, a roller body to which a driving roller (R) moving in the longitudinal direction is coupled is provided inside the coupling rod, and the single load cell 250 is located between the moving body 220 and the roller body so that the moving body is connected to the roller body. The force applied to the roller body (coupling rod) is sensed.
본 실시예에서는 하중을 감지하는 로드셀이 개수와 위치가 상이하며 그 외의 구조 및 구성들은 위에서 설명한 실시예와 유사하므로 본 발명의 장치에 대한 설명은 중복 설명을 피하기 위해 생략하도록 한다.In this embodiment, the number and location of load cells that sense the load are different, and other structures and configurations are similar to the embodiment described above, so description of the device of the present invention will be omitted to avoid redundant description.
도 12와 도 13은 본 발명의 보행재활장치에서 사용자의 체중을 지지하는 원리를 설명하는 개념적인 그림이다. 도 14 내지 도 16을 보면, 본 발명의 보행재활장치에서 체중지지수단이 환자의 체중 일부를 지지하면서 재활운동을 하는 과정에서 다양한 데이터 정보를 모니터에 표시할 수 있다. 즉, 재활운동을 수행할 환자에 대한 정보가 미리 입력되고, 기 저장된 환자의 몸무게 등 정보를 기반으로 환자의 체중지지수단이 부담하는 몸무게 보상 정도를 실시간으로 % 값으로 나타낼 수도 있고, 발 디딤부가 부담하는 환자 체중 보조비율을 시각적으로 확인할 수 있다(도 14).Figures 12 and 13 are conceptual diagrams explaining the principle of supporting the user's body weight in the gait rehabilitation device of the present invention. 14 to 16, in the gait rehabilitation device of the present invention, various data information can be displayed on the monitor during rehabilitation exercise while the weight support means supports part of the patient's body weight. In other words, information about the patient who will perform rehabilitation exercises is input in advance, and based on information such as the patient's weight previously stored, the degree of weight compensation borne by the patient's weight support means can be expressed as a % value in real time, and the foot stepping area can be displayed as a percentage value. The ratio of patient weight support can be visually confirmed (Figure 14).
그리고, 환자의 체중을 보조하고 있는 상황에서 좌-우측 족저부가 지면(롤러부)에 닿는 각 구간에서 몸무게가 감소하는 비율을 측정해 재활보행시 좌우 균형을 측정할 수도 있다(도 15). 그리고, 보행재활치료 시에 좌측과 우측의 실시간 몸무게 측정 현황을 실시간으로 나타내고 누적된 데이터를 기반으로 보행 분석 자료로 활용할 수도 있다. In addition, in a situation where the patient's weight is being supported, the left and right balance during rehabilitation walking can be measured by measuring the rate of weight loss in each section where the left and right plantar parts contact the ground (roller part) (FIG. 15). In addition, during gait rehabilitation treatment, real-time weight measurement status on the left and right sides can be displayed in real time and used as gait analysis data based on accumulated data.
본 발명은 위와 같은 구성과 동작을 통해 급성기 환자에게 기능적인 보행재활치료의 제공과 균형능력을 측정하고 분석해 실시간 제공할 수도 있으며, 보행재활 종료 후 의료진과 대상자에게 보행 기능 데이터를 정량적 수치 및 그래프로 제공해 올바른 보행 자세의 유도 및 교정을 할 수 있는 등의 효과가 발생한다.The present invention can provide functional gait rehabilitation treatment to acute patients through the above configuration and operation, and measure and analyze balance ability and provide it in real time, and provide gait function data in quantitative numbers and graphs to medical staff and subjects after completion of gait rehabilitation. It provides effects such as inducing and correcting correct walking posture.
