Abstract:
The present invention relates to a robotic system useful to unload the object/person from its weight. The robotic system is useful in locomotor rehabilitation programs and allows the manipulation of forces in a three-dimensional space with far lower actuator requirements and a much higher precision than prior-art systems. The apparatus combines passive and active elements to minimize actuation requirements while still keeping inertia to a minimum and control precision to a maximum. It requires minimal actuators and at the same time has a low inertia.

Claim (Index 1):
Apparatus ( 1 ) comprising:\n two or more ropes (or wires) or two parts of one rope (R 1 , R 1 \u2032), also referred to as primary rope(s), wherein each rope or rope part extends from a first associated drive unit (A a , A c ) to a first associated deflection device, respectively, (D 1 , D 3 ) and is deflected by the latter, and wherein each rope or rope part (R 1 , R 1 \u2032) is guided by said first deflection device (D 1 , D 3 ) toward a second associated deflection device, respectively, (P 1 , P 1 \u2032), whereby said rope or rope part (R 1 , R 1 \u2032) is deflected by said second deflection device (P 1 , P 1 \u2032) toward an associated third deflection device, respectively, (D 2 , D 4 ), that is connected to the respective first deflection device (D 1 , D 3 ), and said rope or rope part (R 1 , R 1 \u2032) is deflected by said third deflection device (D 2 , D 4 ) toward a second associated drive unit (A b , A d ) or a fixed point in space or back to said first associated deflection device (D 1 , D 3 ), wherein said second deflection devices (P 1 , P 1 \u2032) are connected to an object or a user.
