Embodiment Construction

[0026] This disclosure proposes a soft air-driven hand rehabilitation device with a hand actuator as the controlled object, an Arduino UNO with high performance and low power consumption as the microcontroller, and a micro-vacuum pump as the driver. Because of the inherent softness, elasticity, and lightness of soft materials, the hand rehabilitation device made of soft materials is more lightweight, comfortable, small in size, easy to wear and carry, and high in safety.

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the present disclosure will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] The soft air-driven hand rehabilitation device of the embodiment of the present disclosure, such as figure 1 As shown, the hand rehabilitation device includes: a microcontroller, an air drive system, and a hand actuator.

[0029] The hand ac...

Abstract

The invention discloses a software gas driving hand rehabilitation device. A hand actuator is wore on a hand of a patient and used for driving the hand of the patient to move; a gas driving system is communicated with the hand actuator through an air pipe and used for providing the hand actuator with gas drive, so that the hand actuator drives the hand of the patient to move; a micro controller is connected with the gas driving system and used for sending control signals to the gas driving system to control the gas driving system. Compared with existing hand rehabilitation devices, the hand rehabilitation device has the advantages of being low in price, comfortable to wear, safe and efficient. The deflects that the existing hand rehabilitation devices are high in price, heavy, uncomfortable to wear, and low in safety are overcome. The device can be extensively used in the hand hemiplegia rehabilitation training of apoplexy patients.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosure belongs to the field of hand rehabilitation robots, and in particular relates to a soft air-driven hand rehabilitation device. Background technique [0002] At present, the phenomenon of population aging in my country is becoming more and more common, and stroke patients are also showing a trend of increasing year by year. Stroke is one of the main causes of hand function failure. Stroke patients may suffer from a variety of neurological deficit symptoms, among which hemiplegia and movement disorders are the most common, and hand dysfunction in patients with upper limb hemiplegia often manifests as flexion contracture of the hand. The flexor muscles in the hands are hypertonic, and the interphalangeal and metacarpophalangeal joints have difficulty extending. At present, the problem of hand hemiplegia caused by stroke can only rely on the manual training of medical personnel, but there is a serious shortage of professional rehabilitation...
