Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, the technique described in the above-mentioned prior art document 2 has the following problem, that is, since the mold release agent is applied only between the mesh sleeve and the inner tube constituted as described above, there is a possibility that internal The friction between the tube and the mesh sleeve causes damage to the inner tube in a short period of time, and it is necessary to solve the problem of prolonging the life of the fluid-type actuator

Embodiment Construction

[0043] Next, an embodiment of a fluid-type actuator that is a specific invention of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0044] figure 1 It is a side view showing Embodiment 1 of the fluid-type actuator device using air as the fluid in the expanded state of the present invention, figure 2 yes means figure 1 Side view of the retracted state of the fluidic actuation device. Moreover, in figure 1 In , in order to show the internal structure of the pneumatic actuator, part of the mesh sleeve and the low-friction body are shown by dotted lines.

[0045] existfigure 1 and figure 2 Among them, an air supply and discharge pipe 2 for supplying and discharging air as a fluid into the inner pipe 1 is connected to one end portion in the longitudinal direction of the inner pipe 1 which is an expansion-contraction body. The other end of the inner tube 1 is airtightly sealed by inserting a bush (not shown). An air supply and exhaust device (not sh...

Abstract

The present invention provides a hydraulic pressure actuator having an inner tube and a mesh sleeve covering the outer periphery of the inner tube and longitudinally extendable by pressure fluid fed into the inner tube, wherein a low friction body formed in an elastic cylindrical body by knitting fine fibers is disposed between the inner tube and the mesh sleeve, and the low friction body contributes to an increase in the life of the hydraulic pressure actuator repeatedly performing extension / retraction motions. The hydraulic pressure actuator is used as an actuator for driving a CPM device which supports the extremity of a human body by at least one of a plurality of members combined with each other and performs the rehabilitation of the joints of a handicapped by operating the member.

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...
