Ceiling-Mounted Rail
The ceiling-mounted rail is attached overhead, typically to a support
beam. The rail defines the patient’s horizontal walking path. The track
includes straight and/or curved sections that can form various config
-
urations including straight, J-shaped, and loop (racetrack) shapes. The
actuator runs along the rail on a set of wheels and receives power via
an integrated conductor bar. The rail contains an end stop and a limit
switch that protect the actuator by preventing it from reaching the very
end of the rail. Loop configurations do not contain the end stop and
limit switch.
Ceiling-Mounted Rail
daNGer:
Do NOT touch the conductor bar inside the rail. This will result in serious injury
or death.
Strap
The strap connects the actuator to the spreader bar. The software follows the
position of the strap, maintaining the position of the actuator relative to the
patient. The actuator responds to the load that is placed on the strap.
Strap
NoTIce:
The system has an upper limit which limits the minimum distance between
the actuator cover and the end of the strap to three (3) inches. Facilities with a minimal
rail mounting height (top of rail, 8’ 8”) may be limited in treating certain taller patients
(maximum 6’ 2”) on the ground or elevated surfaces such as stairs or a treadmill.
