Abstract

The invention provides a leg exoskeleton device and a control method thereof. The leg exoskeleton device comprises a thigh assembly and a shank assembly which are rotationally connected and worn on the thigh and the shank of a user respectively, a magnetorheological damper and a controller, wherein the magnetorheological damper comprises a damping cylinder and a damping rod, wherein part of the damping rod is arranged in the damping cylinder. One of the thigh assembly and the shank assembly is rotationally connected with the end, exposed out of the damping cylinder, of the damping rod, and theother is rotationally connected with the damping cylinder. An annular magnetizer is arranged in the damping cylinder and arranged on the outer ring of the damping rod in a sleeving mode, an annular groove is formed in the outer side wall of the annular magnetizer, a conductive coil is wound in the annular groove, and a magnetorheological fluid is contained in the damping cylinder; the annular magnetizer and the damping cylinder are arranged at an interval; and the controller is in communication connection with the magnetorheological damper and is used for controlling the current intensity ofthe conductive coil so as to control the working state of the magnetorheological damper. The device not only can realize locking, loosening or deceleration between the thigh assembly and the shank assembly, but also is relatively low in energy consumption, and meanwhile, the intelligent degree is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power-assisted exoskeleton, in particular to a leg exoskeleton device and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] The leg exoskeleton device is a wearable device that assists the human body to stand and walk. It is often used for walking rehabilitation of paraplegic patients or walking assistance for normal people. [0003] At present, leg exoskeleton devices generally include a thigh support and a calf support; wherein, the thigh support is used to be worn on the user's thigh; the calf support is rotatably connected to the thigh support, and is used to be worn on the user's calf; The leg exoskeleton device can provide support for the user when the user's legs are standing, and a locking part, such as a gear magnetic strip or a ratchet mechanism, is generally added to connect the thigh support and the lower leg when the user's legs are standing. Stand locked. [0004] However, in the exi...
