Embodiment Construction

[0072] Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the embodiments described here are for illustration only, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0073] The present invention provides a rehabilitation training system combining functional electrical stimulation and a robot, here referred to as the FES-Robot system. The system can help those with neuromuscular injuries (such as those caused by stroke) to carry out interactive progressive rehabilitation training with continuous control of voluntary movement (rather than triggering), so that patients can maximize their energy during training. Maintain the active movement of the affected muscles to the greatest extent. Preferably, the hemiplegic or muscle-weak body part to be trained may be the upper or lower limb. Movements assisted by the FES-robot system include, but are not limited to, extension and flexion at the elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle join...

Abstract

The invention provides rehabilitation training system and method combined with functional electric stimulation and a robot. The system comprises a functional electric stimulation part, a robot part and a control unit which is respectively connected with the functional electric stimulation part and the robot part, wherein the control unit is used for receiving bioelectric signals and controlling the functional electric stimulation part and the robot part at real time according to the mode of adjustable auxiliary proportion of the functional electric stimulation part and the robot part or the mode of adjustable tracking error so that the functional electric stimulation part can stimulate the corresponding muscle groups of a joint of a patient and the robot part can provide a joint auxiliary torque for the patient. The invention can be applied to progressive interactive rehabilitation of elbow joints, wrist joints, knee joints, ankle joints and shoulder joints and can help patients carry out active rehabilitation training in an improved movement space, thereby greatly accelerating the recovery of movement function of joints of affected sides.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of auxiliary medical rehabilitation training equipment, in particular to a system and training method for providing rehabilitation training for joints of patients by combining functional electrical stimulation and robots. Background technique [0002] Functional electrical stimulation (FES) can artificially stimulate designated muscle tissue through electric current, thereby causing muscle contraction, which can train muscle strength and produce sensory responses and feedback to the brain, so as to promote neuromuscular motor function. Plastic. [0003] The rehabilitation robot (robot) system can provide external mechanical support to body parts, such as hemiplegic side limbs, to help patients train corresponding limb movements so as to improve related sensorimotor functions. Both the FES and the rehabilitation robot are used for the rehabilitation of the disabled. [0004] However, most of the FES and robot...
