TECMACHINE - INSTRUMENTED WHEEL CHAIR ERGOMETER

Ergometer adapted for the training and the analysis of the power developped while using a wheel chair.

Running

A roll system located under the wheel chair is fit to create a braking torque. One can modulate this torque according to the propulsion speed. An acquisition device enables to provide the values required for the biomechanical analysis of the locomotion on a wheel chair. An integrated calibrating system allows to garantee the accuracy of the measurement of the torque.

Applications

Rehabilitation
Training
Stress test
Sport medicine
Biomechanical analysis of the locomotion

Results analysis

At the end of a test, analysis module provides the following informations :
Computing and display of power developped by the patient, curve
Calculation of main parameters defining the test performed.
