About Your LiteGait®
YOKE ASSEMBLY: Support Arm with four female buckles at
the ends and is attached to the actuator with a flat plate
secured by four bolts.
OVERHEAD STRAPS: Four 44” long adjustable straps with male
connectors at one end and padded female buckles at the
opposite end. The male connectors attach to the yoke buckles
and the female buckles attach to the harness providing
postural support for the patient.
HARNESS/GROIN PIECE: Adjustable wrap with a buckle closure
in the front and three adjustable straps on each side. The four
male connectors at the top of the harness that attach into the
female buckles of the overhead straps. The four female
buckles at the bottom of the harness allow for the connection
of the groin piece. The H-shaped stitching on the groin piece
denotes the top (or body side) of the piece.
ACTUATOR: The mechanism that raises and lowers the yoke.
The actuator consists of a concentric expanding and retracting
square tower that houses the DC motors, gearing and the
screw mechanism. It also provides the structural base to
which the adjustable handlebars are attached.
CONTROL UNIT: Power system interface for the battery,
handheld switch and actuator control.
HANDLEBARS: Unit has two adjustable handlebars. The
handlebars are attached to the unit using two knobs. BASE:
Two horizontal bars connected by two U-shaped tubes. The
base moves freely over ground or can be locked into place
during use over a treadmill. However the unit must be locked
into place at all other times. NOTE: Over tightening the knobs
may cause damage.
CASTERS: Four casters are attached to the base. The two
casters on the left side are total locking and the two casters on
the right are directional locking. Be certain to lock both caster
brakes when using the unit over a treadmill or when
connecting the patient to the unit. WARNING: NEVER leave
patient unattended in the unit.
BISYM (OPTIONAL): Provides a display of the pounds/
percentage of support provided by each arm of the yoke. The
buckle assemblies are mounted to sensors that measure the
patient load. The sensor values are processed and displayed
using the BiSym instrumentation.
FREEDOME—REMOVEABLE (OPTIONAL): FreeDome that
allows for rotation of patient while supported by LiteGait®.
Removable from main FlexAble yoke. Does not allow for use
with the BiSym Instrumentation.
INTEGRATED FREEDOME (OPTIONAL): Integrated FreeDome
that allows for rotation of patient while supported by
LiteGait®. Allows for use with the BiSym instrumentation.
Gaiter Stool (OPTIONAL): Adjustable stool for therapist to help
facilitate lower extremity cueing. Attaches to the LiteGait.
