Device for controlling the training and the therapeutic treatment and/or for supporting the lower extremities of a human

Device for training and therapeutic treatment and/or supporting the lower extremities of a human including

• driven, controllable movement devices which are connected to a stationary frame and which comprise holding members for fastening one respective extremity, which are movable independently of one another along a predetermined movement pattern, wherein the movement devices each comprise a pivot arm which can be oriented in different elevations, the pivot arm being rotatably connected on one hand to a sled moveable along a linear track on the other hand to a holding member,
• wherein a linear drive for changing the lengthwise position of the respective holding member, a first rotational drive for changing the elevation of the respective holding member, and a second rotational drive for changing the inclination of the respective holding member are provided,
• wherein the movement sled together with the first rotational drive is movable relative to the stationary frame by the linear drive,
• wherein the first rotational drive thereby acts as a carrier for the pivot arm, which transfers the driving force of the linear drive to the pivot arm;
• and
• further the first rotational drive acts as a drive for the elevational movement of the pivot arm.
