In the locomotion of man, usually, three step-force components (comression, anterior-posterior and transcurrent force) have been concerned. However, beside three components the torsional moment around the body axis is also brought about. In a leg part, a hip joint and an ankle joint combine to allow the body rotation as rotational pairs of spherical joints. Walking naturally acompanies this twisting motion, but to the date, no investigations on the twisting moment have been made. One of the reasons may be difficult to measure the twisting moment itself. In this paper, the measuring system is developed, by which a reliable twisting force related to twisting moment can be measured. Twisting force diagrams obtained through seven sorts of walking method. It is found the twisting force is quite sensitive to the walking condition and hence it will play an important role in judging a functional recovery level in rehabilitative training and diagnosing affected parts.
