A full-body exoskeleton for auxiliary support

Abstract

The present invention is a whole-body exoskeleton with auxiliary support, including a leg structure, a hip structure, a shoulder structure and a back support; the hip structure includes a handrail, a hip-back pivot connection, a hip pawl, and a hip ratchet. , Hip-back connection shaft, outer thigh connection, inner thigh connection, latch and hip spring; shoulder structure includes shoulder support tube, arm support plate, shoulder connection, spring seat, shoulder spring, hinge, straight line Electric push rod, shoulder pawl, shoulder ratchet and rigid rope; inner thigh connecting piece and outer thigh connecting piece are installed on the inside and outside of the thigh shell of the leg structure, and the hip-back connecting shaft is fixed on the hip-back shaft connecting piece. On the side surface of the outer thigh connecting piece, the hip ratchet is rotatably connected to the hip back connecting shaft, and the lower end of the back bracket is fixedly connected with the end face of the hip ratchet. It is suitable for the situation where the hand needs to be raised for operation in the semi-squatting position, and the arm has rotation in the horizontal plane and the vertical plane, which increases the range of motion of the arm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of exoskeletons, in particular to a whole-body exoskeleton with auxiliary support, which can provide support assistance for personnel who stand or squat for a long time. Background technique [0002] At present, many industrial workers often need to keep standing or half-squatting posture for a long time due to lack of large working space or restrictions on specific work operations, which makes people easily feel fatigued and reduces the comfort and safety of workers. Work efficiency, in the long run, will also lead to occupational diseases and bone deformation. For example, during assembly line operations, workers sometimes need to maintain a half-squat position and can only rely on their own legs to provide support, which consumes physical strength and makes workers more tired. The exoskeleton can not only provide support for the human body, but also does not affect the user's work operations. [0003] T...
