Arm support
The h/p/cosmos arm supports (patent no.: DE 199 16 508 A1) are applicable especially in the field of rehabilitation and
walking therapy, as well as for the safety of seniors and insecure persons. Therapies can start earlier and the therapist
is supported efficiently in his work.
The arm supports with additional keyboard and additional stop button offers a wide range of applications, e.g. exercising
in gentle way for patients/people with over-weight, orthopaedic problems or cardiovascular diseases.

Reproducibility of adjustments
The arm supports can be precisely adjusted to the needs and physical demands of the patient. Three joints with scale on
each side offer individual adjustments.
To obtain reproducibility, the individually optimal adjustments have to be determined (see scaling at the locking elements)
for each subject and noted appropriately (e.g. in a patient file). We have deliberately refrained from offering standard
settings for particular heights because the adjustment can widely differ according to the posture and the individual situation
of the testing person.
The torsional elements have a scaling at any joint, which is afferent when turned in the direction of the running surface.
The adjustments of the height and width occur gradually because the interlocking of the joints works in 6° steps. In the
illustration above, which can be copied, e.g. for patient files, you can fill in the scaling data for the individual adjustments of
a patient.
