Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a fluid pressure actuator driven by supply and discharge of fluid such as air, and a continuous passive motion (Continuous Passive Motion: hereinafter referred to as CPM) device using the same. Background technique
[0002] As a fluid pressure type actuator, there is known a fluid pressure type actuator in which the outer circumference of a rubber tube (inner tube) is covered with a net-like covering body (mesh sleeve) made of a non-stretchable resin. device. If the inner tube of the fluid pressure actuator is inflated by supplying air into the inner tube, the diameter of the mesh sleeve increases. The increase of the diameter of the mesh sleeve is due to the fact that the material of the mesh sleeve is not stretchable, so the length of the actuator is reduced. A contraction force (driving force) is obtained accompanying the reduction in length of the actuator.
[0003] The above-mentioned fluid pressure actuator, wh...
