Power-assisted mechanism and power-assisted shoes

Abstract

The invention discloses a power-assisted mechanism and a power-assisted shoe. The power-assisted mechanism comprises a front sole pneumatic muscle located at the front sole part, a heel pneumatic muscle, a non-return inflation inlet and a two-position three-way electromagnetic valve, wherein the heel pneumatic muscle is located at the heel part; the non-return inflation inlet is further included; a port B of the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve is connected with the front sole pneumatic muscle, a port A of the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve is connected with the rear heel pneumatic muscle, a port P of the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve is connected with the non-return inflation port, and the two-position three-way electromagnetic valve is configured as follows: in a ready inflation state, the port P is communicated with the port A, and the port B is not communicated with the port A; in a heel landing state, the port P is not communicated with the port A, and the port B is communicated with the port A; in a tiptoe landing state, the port P is not communicated with the port A, and the port B is not communicated with the port A; in a heel off-ground state, the port P is not communicated with the port A, and the port B is communicated with the port A; and when the tiptoe is off the ground, the port P is not communicated with the port A, and the port B is not communicated with the port A. The power-assisted shoe comprises a sole and a power assisting mechanism, wherein the power assisting mechanism is arranged in the shoe sole, and the power assisting mechanism is the power assisting mechanism.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of exoskeleton boosting, and in particular to a boosting mechanism and boosting shoes. Background technique [0002] Wearable robots appear as typical robots in the field of human-computer interaction. They usually refer to designs based on people's body structure and limb functions, which can be worn by people and achieve certain functions. Wearable robots can combine human intelligence and flexible operation capabilities with the endurance and load capacity of robotic devices. Among them, the wearable walking-assisted exoskeleton can reduce unnecessary physical burden for the wearer to walk, so as to achieve a certain burden reduction or rehabilitation effect. [0003] At present, the existing walking assist exoskeleton mostly acts on the ankle joint of the human body, and is divided into active ankle joint exoskeleton and passive ankle joint exoskeleton. Among them, the passive ankle joint exo...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, passive ankle exoskeletons are usually difficult to adjust to the specific gait of the human body, and the energy it provides varies from person to person, making it difficult to effectively reduce the load on human joints

Furthermore, common passive ankle exoskeletons mostly use springs as the energy storage mechanism, but unfortunately, it is difficult to control when the spring releases energy and the rate of spring energy release with electronic equipment. Longer, like the active ankle exoskeleton, one end of the spring needs to be fixed with the calf of the human body as the fulcrum, which affects the force of the calf muscles of the human body and makes walking uncomfortable
