<p>An actuator for an apparatus for applying continuous passive motion to a human joint. An elongated support mounts 2 traveller for reciprocating movement relative thereto and for operative connection to a limb connected to a joint to be mobilized. A motor carried by the support drives the traveller through a reciprocating linear stroke, in a slow rhythmic cycle, whereby the limb is moved relative to the support and the joint is thus kept continually in motion. The motor embodies instrumentalities to reverse the direction of the traveller at any point in its stroke on encountering undue resistance. Preferably, the motor, traveller and associated mechanism is contained in a tubular housing slotted for access to the traveller of a connection to the body.</p> |
