<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique to fix a walking assisting device firmly to the thigh. <P>SOLUTION: The walking assisting device includes a thigh attachment part 20 that includes a thigh holder 28, a thigh frame 22 arranged oppositely to the thigh holder, and a thigh belt 26 for fixing the thigh frame to the thigh on which the thigh holder is arranged. The thigh holder surrounds at least a part of the thigh annularly and applies pressurizing force to the thigh from the whole circumferential direction. Even though the surface of the thigh is soft like a liquid surface, deformation of the thigh is drastically prevented by applying pressurizing force from the whole circumferential direction by means of the thigh holder. Because the hardness of the thigh significantly increases by arranging the thigh holder on the thigh, the thigh is firmly fixed to the thigh frame. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
