PURPOSE:To provide a walk training device in which a long-time and long- distance walk training can be performed while keeping the holding force of the body of a testee substantially constant without adding a load to the testee. CONSTITUTION:When a testee gets on a doughnut walking plate 1, load sensors 2a-2d convert the face loads of the walking plate 1 into electric signals. The electric signals are supplied to an arithmetic means 7A, and compared with a target value, and according to the excess or shortage, the fastening force of a wire 11 is changed. Thus, the holding force of the body of the testee is kept constant through a suspending member 13. On the other hand, since a mast body 18 is rotated in a prescribed direction with a rotating speed according to the degree of trouble of the testee or the progress of the training, the testee can continue the training on the endless track traveling plate 1 for a long time as far as his physical strength permits. |
