Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for measuring lower extremity muscle strength, and more particularly, to a system for measuring lower extremity muscle strength which can effectively measure or train lower extremity muscle strength by means of a simpler method.
Claims20
A system for measuring lower extremity muscle strength, comprising:
- a sitting part on which an object to be measured sits;
- a sensing unit mounted on the sitting part or at a portion of the object to be measured contacting the sitting part;
- and
- a ground reaction force measuring unit measuring a ground reaction force generated by a lower extremity of the object to be measured,
- wherein the sensing unit senses whether the object to be measured is separated from the sitting part.

A system for measuring lower extremity muscle strength, comprising:
- a sitting part on which an object to be measured sits;
- a posture measuring unit measuring a posture of the object to be measured;
- and
- a ground reaction force measuring unit disposed at a lower portion of the object to be measured and measuring a ground reaction force generated by a lower extremity of the object to be measured,
- wherein the lower extremity muscle strength of the object to be measured is measured based on a ground reaction force at the moment that the object to be measured is separated from the sitting part or a ratio of the ground reaction force.
