Problems solved by technology

The problems of the mechanical structure are large volume, heavy load, inconvenient use, easy to cause skin abrasion to patients, strange shape, easy to make users feel inferior
The problems of implanted nerve electrical stimulation are that surgical implantation is required, which increases the trauma to the patient, the risk of histocompatibility of the material implanted in the body is high, the external wire is complicated, and it is not suitable for patients with physical disabilities, and the overall treatment cost is high.
External electrical stimulation is divided into wearable and non-wearable. The problem of non-wearable is that it is inconvenient for users to use. Some additional intelligent gait analysis functions require a doctor's auxiliary settings, and users cannot operate completely independently; the price is relatively expensive, and the market low penetration rate
This kind of walking aid needs to fix the positive and negative electrode sheets of the stimulating electrode on the inner and outer sides of the patient's knee joint and fix one electrode under the fibular head and then power on, which is inconvenient to use

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent wearable walking aid, comprising a wearable protecting structure and a first regulating and controlling section which is arranged on the wearable protecting structure, wherein a pair of left leg electrodes and a pair of right leg electrodes are arranged inside the wearable protecting structure; the first regulating and controlling section comprises a pulse generator, a first memory, a stride sensor, a first angle sensor, a first controller and a first bluetooth adapter; the first memory is used for storing an included angle threshold; the first angle sensor is used for inducing an included angle between a shank of a sufferer and a coronal axis and / or a vertical axis; the first controller is connected with the pulse generator, the first memory, the stride sensor and the first angle sensor; the wearable walking aid also comprises a wrist adjusting and controlling structure and a second regulating and controlling section which is arranged on the wrist adjusting and controlling structure; the second regulating and controlling section comprises a pulse sensor, a second memory, a second bluetooth adapter, and a second controller; the second memory is used for storing a normal pulse range of the sufferer; the second controller is connected with the pulse sensor and the second memory. The intelligent wearable walking aid is small in volume, and convenient to carry and use by the sufferer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a walking aid, in particular to an intelligent wearable walking aid. Background technique [0002] Walking is one of the most repeated actions in human daily life. There are many reasons for poor walking ability, including craniocerebral injury, central system injury, and tibialis anterior muscle weakness caused by various peripheral nervous system lesions; the most typical Disease manifestations such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and disease, hemiplegia, cerebral palsy, etc. cause foot inversion and foot drop. Whether patients have good walking ability is directly related to their independent living ability, quality of life and expectation of reintegration into society. Therefore, in all kinds of abnormal gait diseases, restoring the patient's walking ability is the most important rehabilitation goal. Taking typical stroke as an example, with the aging of the population, the increase in psychological ...
