Problems solved by technology

At present, the exoskeleton finger rehabilitation robots on the market are relatively large, difficult to transport, and cannot be used at home
In addition, the existing working methods of exoskeleton finger rehabilitation robots mostly adopt the method of controlling the robot by extracting human EEG signals or EMG signals. Misoperation may cause certain damage to the patient

Abstract

The invention provides a novel exoskeleton finger rehabilitation robot which is characterized by comprising a control unit, motor drive units, transmission units and execution units. A working method of the robot comprises the steps of control signal output by the control unit, drive motor power input, finger MCP (metacarpophalangeal) joint exercise, finger PIP (proximal interphalangeal) joint exercise and exercise parameter adjustment. The robot has the advantages that the robot is intelligent, portable and wearable, is efficient in rehabilitation training and controls rehabilitation exercises of patients by utilizing the bending and stretching motions of finger joints.

Description

(1) Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and in particular relates to a novel exoskeleton finger rehabilitation robot, which is mainly suitable for rehabilitation training for patients with finger dysfunction caused by stroke. (two) background technology: [0002] Stroke, also known as cerebral apoplexy, is one of the diseases that seriously threaten the health of middle-aged and elderly people. In most cases, it can cause hemiplegia. The incidence of this disease has shown an obvious upward trend in recent years. Hemiplegic patients lose motor function on one side of their limbs, which brings great inconvenience to daily life. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 5 million stroke patients in my country, and more than 4.5 million stroke patients in the United States. Clinically, most of the rehabilitation of hemiplegia patients adopts one-on-one treatment method between therapist and patient. Although the current medical ...
