- the lifting carriage can have drives both for moving the base arm and for moving the forearm.
- All drives can be automatically driven by a common control device of the rehabilitation device, in particular driven by a program.
- the body part support forms a connecting link in order to be able to couple the rehabilitation device to a body part of a person to be treated. Coupling can already take place in that the person places one of their body parts, such as the hand, forearm or leg, on a support surface of the body part support.
- the body part support can have a fastening means, such as, for example, at least one lockable strap, which is formed for releasably attaching the body parts of the person to the body part support.

- a coupling of the movement of the body part support relative to the connector with the height movement of the lifting carriage means that the height movement of the lifting carriage forms an input variable for controlling the tilting movement of the body support part.
- This tilting movement of the body part support can take place synchronously with the vertical movement of the lifting carriage.
- the tilting movement of the body part support can also take place asynchronously to the vertical movement of the lifting carriage, but be in a predetermined other dependence on the vertical movement of the lifting carriage.
- the first drive can comprise a first motor arranged in the stand or in the lifting column, which is designed to raise and / or lower the lifting carriage in a motor-driven manner on the lifting column, and the rehabilitation device can have a mechanical coupling device that forms part of the fourth Forms drive and which is designed to transmit a drive movement of the first motor to the partial body support, such that during a lifting movement of the lifting carriage, driven by the first motor, the body part support executes a tilting movement which is synchronous with the lifting movement.
- the mechanical coupling device can in particular be formed to accommodate a lifting movement of the lifting carriage and convert the lifting movement into a tilting movement of the body part support.
- a conversion can also include a translation, for example implemented by a gear.
- the first drive can comprise a first motor which is arranged in the stand or in the lifting column and is designed to lift the lifting carriage on the lifting column in a motor-driven manner and / or to lower

- a control-technical coupling of the fourth motor with the first motor can take place, for example, via the control device of the rehabilitation device, which also controls the other drives of the rehabilitation device.
- a control-technical coupling of the fourth motor instead of solely depending on the first motor for moving the lifting carriage, also as a function of a second motor for pivoting the base arm about a first axis of rotation and a third motor for pivoting the forearm about a second Be set up axis of rotation.
- the fourth motor is actuated not only as a function of the height of the lifting carriage, but also as a function of the pivoting positions of the base arm and the forearm Put your arm on the armrest goes.

- a force and / or torque controlled operation of the drives or motors i.e. a compliance control can be done for example by means of impedance control or admittance control.
- An admittance control is based on an existing position control of the positions of the rehabilitation device at the joint level of the rehabilitation device.
- the generalized forces acting from outside on the Rehabilitationsvorrich device are measured. Based on these forces, a movement of the rehabilitation device corresponding to the desired dynamic behavior is determined, which is commanded to the drives or the motors via an inverse kinematics and the subordinate position control.
- impedance control is based on an existing torque control at joint level. The deviation of the actual actual position from a defined target position is measured and a desired generalized force, or forces and moments, is determined according to the desired dynamic behavior. This force can be mapped to corresponding joint torques via the known kinematics of the rehabilitation device. The torques can finally be set via the subordinate torque control.

- the rehabilitation device can have a stop device that is designed to be both a maximum
- the forearm is coupled to the lifting slide via mechanical or control-technical couplings.
- the forearm can be coupled to the lifting slide by means of parallelogram links and / or belts.
- a limitation of movement by means of a stop device can thus be realized preferably via the mechanical or control coupling.
- three limits can be implemented in a subsystem with two degrees of freedom of the rehabilitation device.
- the forearm can generally be pivotally mounted on the base arm by means of a second joint
- the second joint is designed to support the forearm in all swivel positions of the forearm above the base arm
- the connecting piece is mounted on the forearm so that it can pivot about the third axis of rotation
- the third joint being designed to connect the connecting piece in FIG to store all swivel positions of the connecting piece above the forearm
- the body part support is mounted on the connecting piece such that it can be tilted about the fourth axis of rotation by means of a fourth joint, the fourth joint being designed to support the body part support in all swivel positions of the body part support above the forearm.
- a distal end portion of the base arm and / or a proximal end portion of the forearm, on which the second axis of rotation is arranged, can be configured so that in a superimposed relative position of the base arm and forearm one above the other, a gap space acting as a clamping protection Basic arm and forearm is formed.
- a supplementary additional protection against jamming can be achieved or improved if the surfaces of the base arm and forearm facing one another in an overlapping position of the base arm and forearm are each covered with an elastic layer.
- the forearm can additionally be formed in two parts with a first, proximal forearm part and a second, distal forearm part, the second, distal forearm part being detachably and removably mounted on the first, proximal forearm part such that the second, distal forearm part optionally in in a first orientation is to be rigidly attached to the first, proximal forearm part or in a second orientation is to be rigidly attached to the first, proximal forearm part, which is from the first orientation tion deviates, in particular is rotated by 180 degrees with respect to the first orientation.
- the second, distal forearm part can be repositioned on the first, proximal forearm part by a snap / snap connection, which in a locked state connects the second, distal forearm part in a form-fitting and rigid manner to the first, proximal forearm part and, in an unlocked state, the second , distal forearm part can be manually removed from the first, proximal forearm part and put on again in a different orientation.
- the body part support can also be mounted on the intermediate piece so as to be removable from the intermediate piece.
- the body part support with the intermediate piece connecting joint can be detachable.
- the body part support can optionally be designed as an arm support, as a hand support or as a leg support.
- the aim of the invention is to present a new type of robot system for rehabilitation applications, which is powerful, sensitive and at the same time safely constructed.
- This robot system should be designed to be significantly cheaper than comparable known solutions, so that it can be used economically not only for commercial users, but also in the private sector.
- the basic idea of this invention is a novel, target-oriented combination of special kinematics with special drive V grant and construction weight of support and indivi duel adjustable motion areas.
- the rehab arm is designed to be movable in five degrees of freedom, the end effec tor representing the connection to the patient's arm, in particular an under arm or a hand of a person, and being movable in all three translational and two rotational degrees of freedom.
- the two rotational degrees of freedom describe a rotation of the forearm, for example, about a stationary vertical axis and a moving horizontal axis, which is always perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the lower arm.
- a free or guided rotation of the forearm about its longitudinal axis is prevented in this variant by fixing the forearm in a shell support connected to the robot.
- a fixed position of the forearm or hand can be freely selected in advance and should correspond to an ergonomic posture that is appropriate for the appropriate therapy.
- the five degrees of freedom of the special variant of the rehab arm described here are achieved by five serially arranged joints.
- the first joint is fixed in space and describes a vertical translation. It is actuated by a movement specification of the control.
- the second joint is formed by an axis of rotation, which describes an actuated, controlled rotational movement about the vertical axis.
- the third joint is also formed by an axis of rotation. This is essentially parallel to the axis of rotation of the second joint and is arranged at a distance from it. they also describes an actuated, controlled rotational movement about a vertical axis.
- the fourth joint is also formed by an axis of rotation. This is also essentially parallel to the second joint and third joint and is arranged at a distance from these. It also describes rotary motion about the vertical axis, but is passive, i.e. executed without drive. It is positively guided or specified by the position of the patient's arm.
- the fifth joint is also formed by an axis of rotation and is more of a tilt axis. This is essentially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the fourth joint and is oriented horizontally.
- the movement of the axis can be specified in terms of control technology or mechanically coupled, and in particular can be designed to be passively free or passively spring-supported.
- the structure described here differs fundamentally from known designs of other rehab arms or SCARA robots, since a serial joint structure is disclosed which contains both active and at least one passive joint and is accordingly kinematically or technically undefined.
- the at least one passive joint is located within the kinematic chain, ie not at the distal or proximal end of the kinematic chain.
- the rehab robot ie the rehabilitation device, can also be controlled in impedance mode.
- This mainly affects the basic joints for moving the lifting carriage, the basic arm and the forearm, which determine the position and the forces on the patient arm in the room. ben.
- the tilt joint is made easier and is purely position-controlled.
- the tilt of the armrest is determined by the tilt joint, which should support and guide the patient, so that the patient cannot perform any unauthorized offsetting or compensatory movements, for example with the forearm.
- the armrest is tilted downwards in hand positions above the shoulder and upwards in hand positions below the shoulder so that one level always goes through the patient's shoulder.
- This level is spanned by the tilt joint and the length of the armrest and is based on TCP, ie in the patient's hand. In addition to the height of the hand, the horizontal distance from the hand to the shoulder is also decisive for the inclination.
- the inclination can be either mechanically coupled ge or controlled driven in the tilt joint.
- the position and thus the movement of the lifting carriage in the vertical direction can be picked up, converted and transferred to the tilting joint.
- This can be done, for example, via a traction mechanism structure, in particular a bilateral stationary rope in the linear axis, which drives a rope pulley mounted on the carriage when the lifting carriage moves.
- This rapid rotary movement can be reduced by means of a simple gear according to the translation and drive a further roller or a lever on the output side, which / which actuates, for example, a further res traction means, in particular a Bowden cable.
- This Bowden cable is guided forward via the joints and transfers the movement directly to the tilt joint using a lever or rope pulley.
- the inclination can be reset either actively, through a double structure for both directions of movement or passively, by gravitation or a spring always pulls the armrest in one direction and thus keeps the Bowden cable drive cable under tension.
- a drive can either drive the tilt joint as a geared motor directly or with spring support, be designed as thrust crank kinematics including an actuating cylinder or act on one side via a cable pull with roller.
- the latter can be realized, for example, by placing a drive with a driving pulley in the front arm and guiding a rope through the third axis of rotation, which acts on the armrest via a lever arm.
- the armrest is always pressed downwards by a spring.
- the rope pulls the support against the weight of the patient's arm so that a correct inclination is set.
- Such a one-sided structure is not only inexpensive, but also has advantages in terms of safe operation, since the support can be freely moved upwards by the patient or can simply fold away from below in the event of a collision.
- the inclination of the support is purely an ergonomic support of the forearm to relieve the patient and help him to carry out the movement correctly. Therefore, in addition to the described Establishing a specific flexibility in the drive train of the tilting joint or integrated downstream in the support, advantageously contributing to a natural movement behavior.
- the lifting carriage and the base arm are used for the main movement in the plane and are driven, for example, by stepper motors with a low-ratio belt drive, for example less than 1:10, in particular 1: 5. This leads to a very direct control behavior, in which the drive is loaded with external torques almost without loss and directly.
- a previously determined static and dynamic model of the motor with respect to its torque curve which at least includes motor currents and armature position or magnet wheel angle, can be used to estimate the torque acting on the motor side in each joint.
- Interference factors such as cogging torque, temperature, belt influences and friction etc. can also be modeled.
- These measured joint moments can be used to calculate the acting input force on the armrest in the dynamic equations of the robot.
- These external forces can be calculated, for example, using the Newton-Euler method.
- Additional force-measuring sensors are not generally necessary in this exemplary embodiment for the planar movement.
- the vertical force can also be used or analyzed and evaluated for therapeutic purposes and as a movement input.
- the motor current and the armature position can also be used, analogous to the movements of the lifting carriage and the basic arm.
- a simple one-dimensional force sensor can also be integrated distally in the area of the armrest in order to improve the measuring accuracy in this direction through shorter force paths.
- This sensor can, for example, in the joint be installed between the forearm and the connecting piece so that the entire axial bearing force, ie in particular tension and pressure, is passed through the sensor. If only a pressure force can be measured by the sensor, the measuring point must be preloaded accordingly.
- the drive train for the joint between the base arm and forearm can be mounted in particular in the lifting slide.
- a first belt stage can be provided, which translates the drive movement, in particular below 1:10 or 1: 5, onto a belt pulley which lies coaxially with the first axis of rotation between the lifting slide and the base arm.
- Another belt with a 1: 1 ratio transmits the rotary movement to the joint between the base arm and forearm. This has various advantages over a direct drive and a support of the drive torque via the base arm.
- the belt forms a closed chain, which significantly reduces the drive torque on the swivel drive between the lifting carriage and the base arm and increases the accuracy of the arm.
- heavy components such as drives are moved in the proximal direction, which reduces the moving mass. This also has a positive impact on drive performance and safety aspects.
- such a structure can be used to implement a goal-oriented concept of specifically defined movement space limits. This is possible because with the described belt structure the following movement limits can be set as fixed but adjustable stops. The limits of movement can limit the base arm relative to the lifting slide, limit the forearm relative to the base arm and at the same time even limit the front arm relative to the lifting slide.
- the absolute movement can be restricted for the base arm and both the relative and additionally the absolute movement can be restricted for the front arm can.
- TCP tool center point
- the robot limbs This keeps the robot away from the patient and prevents unwanted collisions.
- these axis limits can be easily adjusted.
- the drive power built into the robot is very low, so that the robot cannot cause any damage to humans. This is possible because the main drives have no gravitational influence due to their vertically aligned axes of rotation, so that only process forces, ie therapy forces, act here, as well as only slight inertia and frictional forces.
- the linear actuator must be designed to be significantly more powerful, since both process, friction and inertial forces as well as the weight of the patient's arm and the robot act here. The latter make up the largest part of the drive load by far, but have the property that they do not depend on the robot position and remain constant during therapy.
- a compensation system can completely or partially this weight force via an energy storage, in particular a spring-based Take up energy storage so that the use of a smaller, less powerful drive for the lifting column is possible.
- the layering and the offset of adjacent links avoid shear points, body parts the size of a hand can be held between two robot links without jamming.
- the lifting carriage can be carried out with a stable fork bearing.
- the resulting critical clamping point between the base arm and the lifting carriage can be secured by an elastomer cover.
- All movable robot members in particular the base arm and the forearm, can be covered with a fully or partially, in particular laterally and / or on the underside or top, with a resilient shock-absorbing material.
- the robot arm on the underside of the base arm and the forearm, as well as on the lifting line-shaped touching or non-contact sensor in particular have a safety edge, which recognizes that when the entire arm is lowered, for example, against the patient or an object such as a table. Appropriate control specifications can be used to react accordingly in terms of safety technology.
- the special for the body part support (corresponds to TCP) towards increasing layering of the limbs has the advantage that there are no limbs directly next to the patient's head or move, which is psychologically more beneficial, and that the total height of the lifting column can be reduced. Even with a high hand position of the patient, such as for example overhead, only a lower upper carriage position and thus a lower lifting column are required. Since the total stroke of the arm and thus the slide remains the same, the range of motion of the lifting column shifts by the amount of the stratification into the lower, structurally uncritical area.
- a smaller lifting column not only has advantages in design, transport and costs, but also in stability.
- the lifting column has, for example, several feet in the lower area, which can be further stabilized in one embodiment by means of removable weights.
- removable weights can in particular be designed as hollow bodies filled with water or sand, which have to be filled up accordingly after transport. They are connected to the feet or the column and, as counterweights, increase the stability of the structure.
- the feet are designed with rollers, for example, so that they can either be blocked at the destination or the base can be lowered.
- the seating for the patient can also be used to increase the stability of the robot stand base by placing the seat, chair or block on an area of the stand feet or, for example, mechanically connecting it to it by latching.
- the structure of the rehab arm presented here offers maximum flexibility and diversity in therapy.
- the patient can sit next to the arm as well as sit sideways at a distance from it or at a distance from the front. All other patient po sitions are possible.
- This setup can also be used for the therapy of both the right arm and the left arm without modification, if necessary with the exception of the adjustment of the axle stops.
- a detachable and rotatable connection within the front arm enables the orientation to be rotated, for example, by 180 °, so that the armrest either points downwards or upwards. This enables other exercises in a different range of motion.
- the armrest can be modified and / or adapted, for example as a modular system, and, depending on the embodiment, can also include further mobility or arm supports.
- the body part support can be formed in a special embodiment at least in two parts with at least one armrest and at least one handrest, both the armrest having a magnetic coupling force acting together with a first body part cuff magnetically positive first coupling device, as well as the handrest one by magnetic Adhesive force with a two-th body part cuff magnetically non-positively cooperating second coupling device.
- the first body part cuff can have a first counter-coupling device and the second body part cuff has a second negative feedback device.
- the pair of first coupling device and first counter coupling device or the pair of second coupling device and two ter counter coupling device can be at least one pairing of a magnet with a ferromagnetic piece of iron or a pair of two magnets interacting in opposite poles.
- the first coupling device, the second coupling device, the first counter coupling device and / or the second counter coupling device can optionally comprise a magnet and / or a ferromagnetic iron piece.
- This technical solution of a connection of body part cuffs to the armrest thus consists in particular of a double magnetic coupling of the forearm or the hand to the armrest or handrest.
- the patient puts on one or two bandages before the exercise, i.e. the cuffs on your wrist and / or forearm.
- These cuffs are individually designed and remain with the patient even after the exercise.
- the two bandages or cuffs each contain at least one magnetic element, i.e. Counter coupling devices which are connected to a coupling partner / counterpart (metal or also magnet), i.e. the Kopplungseinrichtun conditions on the armrest and / or handrest can be connected by simply approaching by magnetic force.
- the armrest or handrest can be constructed in such a way that it has a handle which can be freely rotated about an axis essentially parallel to the main direction of extension of the armrest. This enables individual adjustment of ergonomic hand orientation and forearm support and extends the degrees of freedom of the rehab arm to six degrees of freedom.
- the handle can also have a sensor, such as a simple photodiode or a button for detecting the patient's hand resting on it. When the hand is released from the handle, the rehabilitation device stops. When it is replaced, the movement is with a signal or a defined period of time.
- the armrest can have a forearm support, which also offers the possibility of magnetic coupling. It can be designed for the purpose of lateral guidance of the lower arm, for example as a semicircular, open shell. A single pair of magnets is sufficient here and does not restrict the mobility of the wrist. In other words, no matter which grip position (e.g. 0 °, 45 °, 90 °) the patient takes, the alignment of the coupling point forearm to forearm support remains constant, so that all grip positions can be achieved with only one forearm coupling point.
- grip position e.g. 0 °, 45 °, 90 °
- the magnetic connections can be designed, for example, as flat surfaces of the coupling partners (first / second coupling device, first / second counter-coupling device) and / or can have certain shaped elements which interlock to better absorb lateral forces.
- the bandages can also contain sensors for measuring and monitoring the vital functions.
- sensors When coupled to the armrest, they are supplied with energy via an electrical interface and send data to a control device of the rehabilitation device so that a targeted reaction to the patient's physical condition can be made.
- these measured values of the vital function can also be stored with the movement data and transmitted to a therapist for evaluation.
- the sensors can also be equipped with batteries which are charged via the interface to the armrest and which also record further measured values after active therapy.
- the bandages ie the cuffs, can also include, for example, an NFC element, such as an RFID tag, on which all important patient data are stored. If the rehabilitation device is used by many patients, as is the case, for example, in a rehab center, it is sufficient if the patient couples with the armrest. All relevant data of the individual therapy are transferred to the controller so that the training can begin immediately.
- the entire armrest can be separated by simply pulling it out axially and replaced for other therapeutic applications.
