Abstract

The invention discloses a compact type active artificial limb ankle joint, which comprises a bracket, a leg connecting piece, a front end cover, a gear assembly, a speed reducer, a motor, an artificial foot, a rotating shaft, an artificial foot connecting piece, two shaft supporting pieces, two gear and gear rack assemblies, a lead screw assembly and two linear guide rail assemblies. According to the invention, the motor reducer structure is a power source, the artificial foot is driven by the movement of the gear and the gear rack to realize toe flexion and dorsal flexion movement of the ankle joint, the space utilization rate is increased by innovatively applying the gear and gear rack structure, the structure is compact, the size is small, and the ankle joint has enough torque when pedaling the ground, so that the whole artificial ankle joint has the advantages of large torque and light weight; and the rotating center of the ankle joint is low and is close to the rotating center of the ankle joint of a healthy person in height, so that the walking requirement of the person can be better met, and the gait is more coordinated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rehabilitation aids, in particular to a compact active artificial limb ankle joint. Background technique [0002] Ankle joint prosthesis, as a rehabilitation device, can meet the daily use requirements of patients with lower limb disabilities. Prosthetic ankle joints can generally be divided into passive type and active type. Passive ankle joints are generally single-axis ankle joints or universal ankle joints. Passive ankle joints do not have the disadvantages of self-adjusting gait and inability to provide torque, which makes people walking When the energy consumption increases and it is easy to make the gait asymmetric; the active ankle joint refers to the ankle joint with additional torque supply, which can be divided into electric, hydraulic or pneumatic types according to the energy source. This kind of ankle joint can reduce the energy consumption of amputees And provide good gait control. Litera...
