Abstract
An end range of motion improving device is disclosed including, first and second link members to independently rotate an upper leg and a lower leg of a patient, having a controller to selectively rotate the link members, and a networked computing system to facilitate communication between the controller and other networked devices.
Claims7
An end range of motion improving device comprising:
- a linkage, the linkage including:
- a first link member;
- a second link member supported on the first link member, the second link member configured for being secured to a lower leg of a patient and being rotatable about a second link member axis for rotating the lower leg of the patient about a knee axis of the patient through a lower leg range of motion, the second link member axis being displaceable into a selectable fixed position aligned with the knee axis and maintaining the fixed position during rotation of the second link member;
- an actuator for rotating the second link member about the second link member axis;
- and
- a controller controlling the actuator for selectively rotating the second member link member about the second link axis through the lower leg range of motion.

- a second link member mounted on the first link member, the second link member configured for being secured to a lower leg of a patient and being rotatable about a second link member axis for rotating the lower leg of the patient about a knee axis of the patient through a preset lower leg range of motion, the second link member axis being displaceable into a selectable fixed position aligned with the knee axis by an adjustment of the first link member, the fixed position being maintained during rotation of the second link member;
- an actuator for rotating the second link member about the second link member axis;
- and
- a controller controlling the actuator for selectively rotating the second link member about the second link member axis through the preset lower leg range of motion.
