Patent ID: 8323156

Claim:
A leg training equipment comprising: a base fixed in place; a support portion configured to support a part of a user's body such that at least a part of the user's own weight acts on a leg of the user including a femoral region, and configured to be movable relative to said base such that a load applied to the leg by the user's own weight changes by a relative positional displacement between a foot position and a position of center of gravity of the user; a drive unit configured to move said support portion; and a coupling mechanism configured to couple said support portion, and configured to limit a movable direction of said support portion such that at least when the load applied to the leg increases, a direction of the relative positional displacement between the foot position and the position of center of gravity is substantially limited to a direction of flexion and extension of the user's knee joint, wherein said support portion is configured to be at least inclinable or slidable diagonally forward relative to said base.
