Abstract

The invention discloses a kind of myoelectric chopsticks used by disabled people, which is characterized in that it comprises chopsticks whose middle part is movably connected and whose lower part is fixedly connected by a spring; a silicone dummy glove used to connect with the hands of disabled people; a pair of myoelectric electrodes, It is respectively connected with two myoelectric signal acquisition modules; the two myoelectric signal acquisition modules are respectively connected with a silicone fake glove through a bluetooth module, and the bluetooth module is used to transmit the myoelectric signal collected by the myoelectric signal acquisition module to the control system; a control system for processing myoelectric signals. People with incomplete fingers or amputated arms can use it by putting silicone prosthetic gloves on their arms. Electromyography electrodes are attached to the arms of the disabled to collect electromyographic signals. The present invention collects the user's myoelectric signal through the myoelectric electrode, and the user only needs to make muscle movements according to habitual consciousness. The invention has the advantages of simple use, high practicability, etc., and can carry out large-scale commercial promotion.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for assisting disabled persons to eat normally, in particular to myoelectric chopsticks used by disabled persons.
