a walking aid

Abstract

The invention relates to a walking booster, wherein the structure is characterized in that a connecting sheet is riveted respectively to two sides of an circular fixation waistband, a connecting hinge block, an electric joint, and a leg support are connected in sequence respectively by the two connecting sheets, and a power source battery, a motor drive and a single-chip microcomputer are in sequence connected and fixed on the back face of the fixation waistband; the electric joint comprises a reducer baffle cover, a reducer compression cover, a harmonic reducer, a motor baseplate and a motor which are connected in sequence, the top end of a spiral output sheet in the leg support is connected on the reducer baffle cover of the electric joint, one end of a leg fixation belt is connected to the tail end of the spiral output sheet, and the other end is fixed in the middle of the spiral output sheet; and a triaxial acceleration gyro is adhered on the top end of the spiral output sheet and connected to the single-chip microcomputer by a wire, two infrared distance sensors are also connected to the single-chip microcomputer by the wires, and the motor of the elective joint is connected to the motor drive by the wire. The structure of the walking booster provided by the invention is designed according to human body simulation principles, so that utilization performances of the walking booster are effectively enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a walking booster, in particular to a walking booster designed for the elderly, the disabled and other people with handicapped legs and feet, which can assist the legs when walking and achieve the purpose of saving energy when walking. Background technique [0002] For those who have difficulty walking due to various leg problems, there are some walking boosters on the domestic and foreign markets. At present, the main walking assist devices include: (1) a hand-held booster suitable for heavier patients. It realizes the movement of the human body through the displacement of the hand-held movable bracket. Its main function is stability, and it is easy to carry and use. Convenience, small scope of application, and few users; (2) Pressure pulley series suitable for exercise and fitness, there is no fully mature product at present, and the requirements for health status, traffic conditions, etc. are relatively high, and it is not v...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, the main walking assist devices include: (1) a hand-held booster suitable for heavier patients. It realizes the movement of the human body through the displacement of the hand-held movable bracket. Its main function is stability, and it is easy to carry and use. Convenience, small scope of application, and few users; (2) Pressure pulley series suitable for exercise and fitness, there is no fully mature product at present, and the requirements for health status, traffic conditions, etc. are relatively high, and it is not very helpful for walking disadvantaged groups (3) flexible and convenient crutches, whose main function is stability, does not fundamentally solve the problem of inability to lift legs during walking

What is important is that some of the above-mentioned various walking methods ignore the potential energy of motion generated by their own weight, and some ignore the disadvantaged groups with inconvenient walking.
