Abstract
In this report, we rethink the mechanical section of rehabilitation equipment, and develop a new compact and lightweight model. In Japan, one of the major causes of death is vascular disease (stroke). If the patient stroke movement disorders such as hands and feet paralyzed prone, the limbs were allowed to stand, would be joint contracture. We develop a hydraulic rehabilitation equipment using a bellows for the purpose of preventing finger contractures.
