Embodiment Construction

[0020] see Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the walking aid exoskeleton gait adjustment method based on smart crutches, which includes:

[0021] (1) Wearing a lower limb walking exoskeleton robot and using smart crutches to support the body;

[0022] (2) When walking, swing a crutch forward. After the crutch touches the ground, the ground contact switch at the bottom of the crutch is closed, and the angle data is sent to the exoskeleton robot;

[0023] (3) The exoskeleton robot receives the angle data from the crutches and adjusts the stride;

[0024] (4) Close the manual switch of the walking mode, and the exoskeleton robot will move forward;

[0025] (5) Swing alternately with both crutches, repeat steps (2)-(4) to complete walking;

[0026] (6) To stop walking and restore the standing mode, close the manual switch of the standing mode of the right turn, and the exoskeleton robot will change from the walking mode to the standing mode;

[0027] (7) When you want to change the...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of adjusting gait of a walking assistive exoskeleton, in particular to a method of adjusting gait of a walking assistive exoskeleton based on intelligent walking sticks. The method comprises: putting on a lower-limb walking assistive exoskeleton robot, and supporting the body with the intelligent walking sticks; allowing a ground contact switch at the bottom of one intelligent walking stick to close during walking, and transmitting angle data to the exoskeleton robot; allowing the exoskeleton robot to receive the angle data sent by the intelligent walking stick, and adjusting pace; closing a manual switch of walking mode to allow the exoskeleton robot to step forward; allowing the two walking sticks to rock alternately so as to complete walking; switching a walking mode, a standing mode and a sitting mode. The method helps improve the practicality and usability of the exoskeleton, and allows the gait of the exoskeleton to be adjusted at a user's will.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a walking aid exoskeleton gait adjustment method, in particular to a walking aid exoskeleton gait adjustment method using an intelligent crutch. Background technique [0002] There are tens of millions of patients with loss of lower limb function such as paraplegia or hemiplegia due to stroke, cerebral apoplexy, spinal cord injury, bone trauma and other reasons in China. At the same time, there is a growing number of elderly people with weakened lower limb function. For these two groups of people, wearable exoskeleton robot technology is used as a solution for people with lower limb disabilities to stand up again and assist in walking. Since the leg strength of paralyzed patients is weaker than that of normal people, most walking exoskeleton users need to use crutches to support the body and increase stability. Most of the crutches used are ordinary medical crutches, which cannot improve the practicability and ease of use of t...
