Rehabilitation training apparatus

Abstract

Disclosed is a rehabilitation training apparatus including a pair of first tracks that are arranged in parallel at an interval, a second track that is perpendicular to the pair of first tracks and is movably connected to the pair of first tracks, a hand holder that is movably provided in the second track and on which a hand of the user is held, a holder driving unit that reciprocally moves the hand holder along the second track, and a track driving unit that reciprocally moves the second track along the pair of first tracks.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A rehabilitation training apparatus, comprising:
 a pair of first tracks that are arranged in parallel at an interval;   a second track that is perpendicular to the pair of first tracks and is movably connected to the pair of first tracks;   a hand holder that is movably provided in the second track and on which a hand of a user is adapted to be held;   a holder driving unit that reciprocally moves the hand holder along the second track and comprises a holder motor;   a track driving unit that reciprocally moves the second track along the pair of first tracks and comprises a track motor; and   a control unit controls the hand holder to move in a curved manner, by controlling the track motor and the holder motor to have different rotation speeds from each other.   
     
     
         2 . The rehabilitation training apparatus of  claim 1 ,
 wherein the control unit controls driving of the holder driving unit and the track driving unit such that the hand holder is moved along a plane defined by the pair of first tracks and the second track.   
     
     
         3 . The rehabilitation training apparatus of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a pattern recognizing unit that recognizes coordinate data for a printing pattern to be provided on the plane defined by the pair of first tracks and the second track,   wherein the control unit controls the driving of the holder driving unit and the track driving unit such that the hand holder is moved, based on the coordinate data for the printing pattern recognized by the pattern recognizing unit.   
     
     
         4 . The rehabilitation training apparatus of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 a memory in which plane coordinate data and movement speed data for a movement pattern, in which the hand holder is to be moved, are stored,   wherein the control unit controls the driving of the holder driving unit and the track driving unit, based on the coordinate data and the movement speed data for the movement pattern received through the memory, prior to the coordinate data for the printing pattern received from the pattern recognizing unit.   
     
     
         5 . The rehabilitation training apparatus of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 a communication module that receives plane coordinate data and movement speed data for a movement pattern, in which the hand holder is to be moved, from an external device,   wherein the control unit controls the driving of the holder driving unit and the track driving unit, based on the coordinate data and the movement speed data for the movement pattern received through the communication module, prior to the coordinate data for the printing pattern received from the pattern recognizing unit.   
     
     
         6 . The rehabilitation training apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the pattern recognizing unit comprises at least one of an optical recognition sensor and a photo sensor.
