In this paper, we propose a CPM device with Variable Stiffness Mechanism. The CPM (Continuous Passive Motion) device is used for rehabilitation exercise for joint stiffening, and it moves the joint in motion along a track for a long time. With this device, the Variable Stiffness Mechanism is applied to change stiffness and it enables to exercise with a moderate pushing force. We describe how to design the device and we also describe its evaluation by doctors.
