Portable gyroscopic balance assistance device for providing a corrective torque to a user, including a gyroscope comprising a flywheel (3) mounted in an inner gimfoal (4) having an inner axle (4'), which inner gimbal (4) is mounted in an in- termediate gimbal (5) having an intermediate axle (5'), which intermediate gimbal (5) is mounted in an outer gimbal (6) hav ing an outer axle (6'), wherein the intermediate axle (5') is orthogonal with respect to the inner axle (4' ) and with respect to the outer axle (6'), and wherein the outer gimbal is remova- bly wearable by the user, wherein one of the intermediate axle (5' ) and the outer axle (6'} comprises a torque limited inter- gimbal coupling (1, 2) that gives way when a predefined torque threshold is exceeded, thereby preventing a corrective torque being transferred onto the user. |
