Example Embodiment

[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easy to understand, the present invention will be further explained below in conjunction with specific drawings.

[0029] See figure 1 The human lower limb power exoskeleton device provided by the present invention includes a mechanical skeleton body 1, a central processing unit 10 (not shown), a foot force sensor 111, a thigh force sensor 131, and a calf force sensor 121. The main body of mechanical skeleton 1 is wrapped around the human's lower limbs and can drive the movement of the lower limbs. It includes: a foot cover 11 wrapped on a person's foot, a calf cover 12 wrapped on a person's leg, and a thigh wrapped around a person's thigh Cover 13; The foot cover 11, calf cover 12 and thigh cover 13 are connected by a living hinge 21.

[0030] A cable tie or hoop can be provided on the foot cover 11 to fix a person's foot. Of course, a shoe-like structure can also be use...

Abstract

The invention provides a human body lower limb power exoskeleton device, which comprises a mechanical skeleton main body capable of being wrapped on lower limbs of a human body and capable of driving the lower limbs of the human body to move, a central processing unit, a foot force sensor, a thigh force sensor and a shank force sensor. The sensors can sense stress on corresponding portions of the human body and output stressed signals to the central processing unit, the central processing unit respectively sends corresponding control signals to corresponding foot sleeves, shank sleeves and thigh sleeves, and the foot sleeves, shank sleeves and thigh sleeves respectively generate corresponding actions to drive corresponding feet, shanks and thighs to move. The human body lower limb power exoskeleton device can accurately measure force of the human body in motion by adopting the shank force sensor, the thigh force sensor and the foot force sensor, accordingly more accords with action characteristics of the human body, better assists motion of the human body, and is especially suitable for being used by old people and people with disabled lower limbs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a mechanical assisting device, in particular to a powered exoskeleton device for human lower limbs. Background technique [0002] When people walk for a long time, due to the consumption of a large amount of physical strength. With the increase of the elderly population, more and more elderly people need to be taken care of. It is urgent to develop some simple and reasonably priced intelligent mechanical devices to assist the elderly, especially the disabled, to help them take care of themselves or perform rehabilitation training. . This is undoubtedly an effective measure to solve the problem of population aging. Exoskeleton robots are intelligent auxiliary mechanical devices that help the elderly or disabled to expand their upper and lower limb motor capabilities. In addition, especially soldiers who need to carry a lot of luggage in field operations also need a mechanical assist device. Existing mechanical assisting devi...
