PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assistance support device for supporting movement of a recipient of help from a sitting position to a standing position, or from a standing position to a sitting position without causing excess burden on the recipient.SOLUTION: An assistant support device 1 of the present invention supports movement of a recipient of help from a sitting position to a standing position or from a standing position to a sitting position. The device includes: a substantially rectangle rest member 6 on which a front arm of the recipient is placed a first actuator 15 that moves the rest member 6 in an up-down direction a second actuator 21 that moves the rest member 6 in a front-rear direction and a control unit 9 that operates the first actuator 15 and the second actuator 21 independently at a predetermined timing. The control unit 9 operates the first actuator 15 and the second actuator 21 according to the movement of the recipient from a sitting position to a standing position or from a standing position to a sitting position so as to follow a predetermined path of the rest member 6.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】被介助者に過度の負担を負わせることなく座位姿勢から立位姿勢への移動あるいは立位姿勢から座位姿勢への移動を支援することのできる介助支援装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明の介助支援装置1は、被介助者の座位姿勢から立位姿勢への移動または立位姿勢から座位姿勢への移動を支援するためのものである。被介助者の前腕が載置される略長尺状のレスト部材6と、レスト部材6を上下方向に移動させる第1アクチュエータ15と、レスト部材6を前後方向に移動させる第2アクチュエータ21と、第1アクチュエータ15及び第2アクチュエータ21をそれぞれ独立にかつ所定のタイミングで動作させる制御部9とを備える。制御部9は、座位姿勢から立位姿勢への被介助者の移動または立位姿勢から座位姿勢への被介助者の移動に応じて予め設定された、レスト部材6の軌道に沿うように、第1アクチュエータ15及び第2アクチュエータ21をそれぞれ動作させる。【選択図】図6
