Abstract
This article reports a case of success in postgraduate teaching aimed at applied research in the field of biomedicine that resulted in the
patent registration of the Linear Ergometer, a device aimed at the recovery, preservation and development of musculoskeletal structures of
people in post-surgical recovery, injured or amputated patients, patients with neurological dysfunctions, as well as people with functional
deficits. The Linear Ergometer comprises a linear device fixed to an adjustable tray on a shifter whose travel limiter is adjustable and fixed
by a simple handle. In the travel limiter are fixed the elements that generate the necessary automatic movements for people that do not
spontaneously produce them. The Linear Ergometer was registered with the National Institute of Industrial Property of Brazil under the patent
number BR 1020160087503.
