CA 2166977

To provide controlled amounts of resistance to movement in exercise equipment or in orthotic devices, a control module (30A) (30B) has cooperating resistance elements (132) (134). The force between the elements (132) (134) is varied in accordance with the position of the elements (132) (134) with respect to each other. For example the control module (30A) (30B) can connect two splints (26A) (28A) of a knee brace (14) so that the resistance to flexion and extension are programmed in accordance with the position of the leg and thigh with respect to each other.

Afin d'assurer des forces de résistance régulées à des mouvements effectués dans un équipement d'exercice ou des dispositifs orthotiques, un module de régulation présente des éléments de résistance coopérants. La force entre les éléments est modifiée selon la position des éléments les uns par rapport aux autres. Ledit module de régulation peut, par exemple, relier les deux attelles d'une orthèse du genou de sorte que la résistance à la flexion et l'extension soient programmées en fonction de la position de la jambe et de la cuisse l'une par rapport à l'autre.
