A body weight support system that monitors and controls the level of support force within a stepcycle to result in normative center of mass movement and ground reaction forces. The system comprises a harness (2) connected to a lift line which in turn is connected to a means (20) for advancing and retracting the lift line. A control system (12) is configured to monitor load on the cable (4) and to regulate lift line advancement and retraction in response to load information. The support system can be combined with a treadmill (28) for locomotor training of a subject.

La présente invention concerne un système de soutien de la masse du corps qui surveille et commande le niveau de la force de support pendant un pas de marche de façon à établir un centre normatif du mouvement de la masse et des forces de réaction du sol. Le système comprend un harnais (2) fixé à une suspente elle-même reliée à un organe (20) donnant ou reprenant de la longueur de suspente. A cet effet, un système de commande (12) est organisé de façon à suivre la charge sous la suspente (4) et à réguler les mouvements de débit et de reprise de longueur de suspente en réaction à l'information sur la charge. Ce système de support peut être associé à un tapis roulant (28) pour la rééducation d'un sujet à la locomotion.
