Description

technical field

[0001] The invention discloses a novel lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton robot, which belongs to the technical field of medical equipment. Background technique

[0002] The lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton robot is an exoskeleton robot for rehabilitation and assistance, mainly used in the fields of rehabilitation medicine and assistance to the elderly. In the field of rehabilitation medicine, the lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton can be used for gait rehabilitation of patients; in the field of helping the elderly, the lower limb rehabilitation exoskeleton can help the elderly walk normally. With the continuous development of robot technology, people have higher and higher requirements for the safety, adaptability and flexibility of lower limb rehabilitation robots.

[0003] However, most of the existing lower extremity exoskeleton joint drive devices are directly arranged at the joints, resulting in large inertia at the end of the lower limbs an...
