Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an orthopedic robot, and more particularly to a cable-parallel fracture reduction robot, belonging to the field of robot technology. Background Art
[0002] As one of the most common major diseases in clinical orthopedics, fractures pose a great threat to the physical health of susceptible populations. Among them, pelvic fractures, which account for 1%-3% of all body fractures, have a disability rate as high as 50%-60% and a fatality rate of more than 13%. Fracture reduction is the most important part of fracture surgery. A low-trauma, high-precision, and highly reliable reduction process is very important for the success of the surgery and the postoperative rehabilitation of patients. Currently, the traditional treatment methods for fracture reduction in clinical practice are mainly divided into two types. One is manual reduction and external fixation with splints, and the other is open reduction and internal fixation with plates. The advantage of manual reduction is that it does not require incising the fracture site, reducing the probability of infection. However, since the fracture information cannot be directly obtained, this method requires a high level of skill from the physician and also requires a relatively large number of reduction attempts, which is likely to cause secondary fractures. In open reduction, since the physician can directly obtain fracture information by visual inspection or touch, etc., the number of reduction attempts is reduced and the reduction accuracy is improved. However, it also greatly increases the possibility of infection during the surgery. Using a fracture reduction robot system for fracture surgery, by selecting high-precision mechanical components and servo control components and combining with planning and navigation technology based on medical images, the robot can independently complete the reduction operation of the fracture surgery. While reducing the risk of infection, it greatly improves the accuracy and reliability of the reduction process, saves the physical strength of the physician, and reduces the time for the physician to be exposed to radiation, which is conducive to the popularization of high-difficulty fracture surgeries.
[0003] The configurations of fracture reduction surgical robots mainly include three forms: serial, parallel, and series-parallel hybrid. Traditional parallel robot systems have the advantages of stable structure, high stiffness, and high precision. However, their working spaces are usually small, and the control is complex, and the kinematic calculation is also relatively complex. Serial robots have a relatively large working space and high flexibility, but they also occupy a large surgical space, thus restricting the operating space of medical staff. Moreover, the cumulative error of the serial mechanism will lead to a reduction in the positioning accuracy of the robot's end effector. The hybrid robot system can, to a certain extent, integrate the advantages of the serial and parallel configurations, but its working space is usually still restricted by its parallel part. In terms of the drive mode, existing fracture reduction robots mainly adopt the form of motor drive. Motor drive has high precision, fast response speed, convenient speed regulation, and low pollution. However, the thrust it provides is relatively small. To increase the output torque, a corresponding reducer often needs to be equipped.
[0004] Patent document CN112370164A discloses a spatial hybrid pelvic fracture reduction robot. The parallel part of the robot body adopts a Stewart platform configuration and is connected in series with an arc-shaped guide rail to meet the surgical requirements. However, in actual use, the movement along the axis direction of the arc-shaped guide rail is still restricted by the parallel platform, and at the same time, the gear-rack transmission mechanism will also reduce its movement accuracy to a certain extent.
[0005] Patent document CN104758035A discloses a six-degree-of-freedom series-parallel pelvic fracture reduction robot. This robot combines a 3-degree-of-freedom linear motion series platform component with a 3-degree-of-freedom rotational motion parallel platform component to achieve 6-degree-of-freedom motion. However, the end of its series part is connected to the parallel part, and the parallel platform is large in size and relatively heavy, unable to provide sufficient stiffness.

[0041] The embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this application should have the ordinary meaning understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.
[0042] Figure 1 Disclosed is a cable-parallel fracture reduction robot, which includes a moving platform assembly 1, a vertical assembly 2, a static platform assembly 3, a moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4, and a vertical assembly driving mechanism 5;
[0043] The static platform assembly 3 is installed on the base. The vertical assembly 2 can translate along its own vertical axis direction and is installed on both sides of the static platform assembly 3 to realize the translation of the vertical assembly 2 along the axis direction of the static platform assembly 3. The moving platform assembly 1 is rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two vertical assemblies 2. Optionally, the rotational connection is made by a spherical pair. The driving mechanisms are arranged inside each component. The vertical assembly driving mechanism 5 is placed inside the static platform assembly 3 to control the translation of the vertical assembly 2 along the axis direction of the static platform assembly 3. The moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 is placed inside the vertical assembly 2 to control the upward movement of the vertical assembly 2, the pitching rotation of the moving platform 11, and the translation along its axis direction. The moving platform impedance control mechanism 6 is placed inside the moving platform assembly 1 to control the self-rotation of the moving platform 11 along the moving platform axis. The translation direction of the moving platform 11 controlled by the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 is perpendicular to the translation direction of the moving platform 1 controlled by the vertical assembly driving mechanism 5. The axes of the self-rotation, pitching, and vertical axis are perpendicular to each other in pairs.
[0044] It can be foreseen that the axes of the self-rotation, pitching, and vertical axis are perpendicular to each other in pairs to form a three-axis coordinate system. The self-rotation axis is equivalent to the x-axis, the swinging axis is equivalent to the y-axis, and the vertical axis is equivalent to the z-axis.
[0045] The cable-parallel fracture reduction robot described above is of the 2-PPSP configuration. The moving platform 11 and the static platform assembly 3 are connected by two vertical assemblies 2. Each driving mechanism and the impedance mechanism are jointly controlled to enable the six-degree-of-freedom movement of the robot and achieve a double-branch six-degree-of-freedom parallel structure.
[0046] The motion of the cable-parallel fracture reduction robot of the present disclosure is obtained by coupling each driving mechanism. The motion along the z-axis is obtained by coupling the motions along the z-axis driven by two sets of vertical components 2 and two sets of moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4; the rotation about the x-axis is driven by an impedance control mechanism; the motion along the x-axis is such that the motion along the z-axis driven by two sets of vertical component driving mechanisms cancels out the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint, and at the same time, the motion along the x-axis is controlled by two sets of moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms; the rotation about the y-axis is obtained by the two sets of vertical component driving mechanisms respectively driving motions in different directions along the z-axis, and at the same time, the two moving platform moving joint obtaining mechanisms drive the same motion along the z-axis; the motion along the y-axis is such that the two sets of vertical component driving mechanisms respectively drive the same motion along the y-axis, and at the same time, it is coupled with the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint to cancel out its motion along the z-axis; the rotation about the z-axis is such that the two sets of vertical component driving mechanisms respectively drive motions in different directions along the y-axis, and at the same time, it is coupled with the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism to cancel out its motion along the z-axis.
[0047] In view of this, referring to Figure 2 , the moving platform assembly 1 includes a moving platform 11, a surgical end ball joint 13 and a non-surgical end ball joint 14; the moving platform assembly 1 is rotatably connected to the upper ends of the two sets of vertical components 2 through the surgical end ball joint 13 and the non-surgical end ball joint 14. The surgical end ball joint 13 and the non-surgical end ball joint 14 are respectively rotatably provided on the vertical component 2, and the moving platform 11 is slidably provided on the surgical end ball joint 13 and the non-surgical end ball joint 14.
[0048] The basic structures of the surgical end ball joint 13 and the non-surgical end ball joint 14 are the same. The non-surgical end ball joint is similar to the structure of the surgical end ball joint. Since the axial force is relatively large at the connection between the ball joint seat and the vertical joint, angular contact ball bearings are used and pressed by a cover plate to ensure the reliability in the axial direction. The tooling assembly 12 realizes the movement of the fixed tooling through a guide rail slider and is locked with a locking nut, so as to realize the fine adjustment of the position of the fixed tooling assembly along the surgical direction.
[0049] In view of this, the moving platform 11 is driven by the moving platform impedance control mechanism 6 to realize the self-rotation of the moving platform 11 along the axis of the moving platform, and can also realize the self-translation along the axis of the moving platform 11;
[0050] The motion of the cable-parallel fracture reduction robot of the present disclosure is obtained by coupling each driving mechanism. The motion along the z-axis is obtained by coupling the motions along the z-axis driven by two sets of vertical components 2 and two sets of moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4; the rotation about the x-axis is driven by the moving platform impedance control mechanism 6; the motion along the x-axis is that the motion along the z-axis driven by two sets of vertical components 2 cancels out the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4, and at the same time, the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 controls the movement along the x-axis; the rotation about the y-axis is obtained by the two sets of vertical components 2 driving motions in different z-axis directions respectively, and at the same time, the two moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4 drive the same motion along the z-axis; the motion along the y-axis is that the two sets of vertical component driving mechanisms 5 drive the same motion along the y-axis respectively, and at the same time, it is coupled with the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 to cancel out its motion along the z-axis; the rotation about the z-axis is that the vertical component driving mechanisms 5 drive motions in different y-axis directions respectively, and at the same time, it is coupled with the motion along the z-axis driven by the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 to cancel out its motion along the z-axis.
[0051] The moving platform impedance control mechanism 6 is installed on the moving platform 11. The moving platform impedance control mechanism 6 includes moving platform pneumatic tendons 61, fixed seat A 62, extended pulley assembly 63, fixed seat B 64, guide pulley 65 and rope 49; the guide pulley 65 is installed on the surgical end ball joint 13. At least two moving platform pneumatic tendons 61 are arranged in parallel on the side of the moving platform 11 close to the non-surgical end ball joint 14. One end of the moving platform pneumatic tendon 61 is installed on the fixed seat A 62 provided on the moving platform 11, and the other end of the moving platform pneumatic tendon 61 is connected to the extended pulley assembly 63. The extended pulley assembly 63 is arranged on the fixed seat B 64, and the fixed seat B 64 is installed on the moving platform 11. One end of the rope 49 is installed on the fixed seat B 64, and the rope 49 bypasses the extended pulley assembly 63 and the guide pulley 65, and the other end of the rope 49 is positioned at the surgical end ball joint 13.
[0052] Exemplarily, two sets of moving platform pneumatic tendons 61 arranged in parallel can realize the rotation of the moving platform 11 about the x-axis (one set of moving platform pneumatic tendons 61 is inflated and the other set of moving platform pneumatic tendons 61 is deflated) and provide a force in the positive x-axis direction (both sets of moving platform pneumatic tendons 61 are inflated at the same time). This mechanism controls the flipping motion of the moving platform supported by only two chain branches and provides a force to resist muscle contraction, improving the load-bearing capacity of the robot to a certain extent. The guide pulley 65 is installed on the connecting frame guide pulley fixing seat 66, and the connecting frame rope end fixing 67 is installed on the surgical end ball joint 13 for fixing the rope 49.
[0053] Refer to Figure 8, the range extender pulley assembly 63 includes a moving pulley seat 631, a range extender guide pulley 632, and a fixed pulley seat 633; four range extender guide pulleys 632 are respectively arranged on the moving pulley seat 631 and the fixed pulley seat 633, a rope is wound around the eight range extender guide pulleys 632, the fixed pulley seat 633 is installed on the moving platform 11, and the other end of the pneumatic tendon 61 of the moving platform is connected to the moving pulley seat 631;
[0054] The fixed pulley seat 633 is fixed to the fixed seat of each pulley assembly in each driving mechanism, the moving pulley seat 631 is fixed to the end of the pneumatic tendon 61 of the moving platform, and four range extender guide pulleys 632 are fixed on the moving pulley seat 631. This assembly can achieve an eight-fold range extension, increasing the movement stroke of the rope and solving the problem of the short working stroke of the pneumatic tendon.
[0055] Further, referring to Figure 2 , the surgical end ball joint 13 includes a surgical end ball joint seat 131, a ball joint connecting frame 133, and a ball joint cross shaft assembly 134; the surgical end ball joint seat 131 is rotatably connected to the ball joint inclined connecting frame 133 through the ball joint cross shaft assembly 134, the moving platform 11 is slidably arranged on the ball joint inclined connecting frame 133, the surgical end ball joint seat 131 is rotatably arranged on the vertical joint assembly 2, the guide pulley 65 is installed on the ball joint connecting frame 133, the yaw guide pulley 132 is installed on the surgical end ball joint seat 131, the rope 49 bypasses the range extender pulley assembly 63, the guide pulley 65, and the yaw guide pulley 132, and the other end of the rope 49 is positioned at the surgical end ball joint 13. The design of the guide pulley 65 and the yaw guide pulley 132 facilitates the reversal of the rope 49. At the same time, when the two sets of pneumatic tendons 61 of the moving platform generate different driving modes, interference is avoided, enabling the rope 49 to slide on the yaw guide pulley 132, reducing the resistance of the rope, and realizing the rotation of the moving platform 11 around the x-axis.
[0056] Exemplarily, referring to Figures 3 - 6 , the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 includes a vertical joint pneumatic tendon 40, a fixed seat C41, a fixed seat D42, a range extender pulley assembly 63, and an inner and outer joint pulley group;
[0057] The fixed seat C41 is installed on the vertical component 2. The inner and outer pulley groups are installed at the lower part of the vertical component 2. The chain transfer plate assembly 43 is arranged on the vertical component 2, and the vertical component 2 can move up and down relative to the chain transfer plate assembly 43. The chain transfer plate assembly 43 can only move horizontally relative to the static platform assembly 3. One end of the vertical joint pneumatic tendon 40 is installed on the fixed seat C41, and the other end of the vertical joint pneumatic tendon 40 is connected to the range extender pulley assembly 63. The range extender pulley assembly 63 is arranged on the fixed seat D42, and the fixed seat D42 is installed on the vertical component 2. One end of the rope 49 is installed on the fixed seat D42. The rope bypasses the range extender pulley assembly 63, the top pulley 431 of the vertical chain transfer plate assembly 43, the inner and outer pulley groups, the pulley on the ball hinge pulley seat 46, and the pulley on the moving platform end pulley seat 47. The other end of the rope 49 is installed on the ball hinge connecting frame 133. In this embodiment, the inner and outer pulley groups of the joint are the inner pulley 44 and the outer pulley 45 respectively. The rope 49 of the moving platform moving joint driving mechanism 4 starts from the end of the pneumatic tendon and finally the end of the rope is fixed on the optical axis of the moving platform end pulley seat. The two sets of driving mechanisms are symmetrically arranged, and each set of driving mechanisms includes a pneumatic tendon. When the pneumatic tendons on one side of the two sets of pneumatic tendons contract and the other side elongates, the moving platform 11 can move in the positive and negative directions along the x-axis. When they contract simultaneously, the moving platform 11 can move in the positive direction along the z-axis. The vertical chain transfer plate is as Figure 5 shown, and the ball hinge pulley seat is as Figure 6 shown.
[0058] The rope 49 of the embodiment scheme is arranged and wound so that the rope fully encloses the vertical component 2. Under the action of the two moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4, the moving platform 11 can move along the y-axis or the moving platform 11 can move along the x-axis.
[0059] For example, when the vertical joint pneumatic tendons 40 of the two moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4 act in the same way (for example, the pneumatic tendons 40 contract simultaneously to provide tension), at this time, the two sets of vertical components 2 rise and move along the z-axis at the same time. When the vertical component driving mechanism 5 acts, the upward moving vertical component 2 returns to its original position downward; when the vertical joint pneumatic tendons 40 of the two moving platform moving joint driving mechanisms 4 act in different ways (for example, one pneumatic tendon 40 contracts to provide tension; the other pneumatic tendon 40 elongates), at this time, the moving platform 11 can move along the x-axis.
[0060] Refer to Figure 8As shown, the range extender pulley assembly 63 includes a movable pulley seat 631, a range extender guide pulley 632, and a fixed pulley seat 633. Four range extender guide pulleys 632 are respectively arranged on the movable pulley seat 631 and the fixed pulley seat 633. A rope is wound around the eight range extender guide pulleys 632. The fixed pulley seat 633 is installed on the vertical assembly 2, and the other end of the vertical joint pneumatic tendon 40 is connected to the movable pulley seat 631. The movable pulley seat 631 is fixed to the end of the vertical joint pneumatic tendon 40, and four range extender guide pulleys 632 are fixed on the movable pulley seat 631. Exemplarily, with reference to Figure 7 , the vertical translation joint drive mechanism 5 includes a translation pneumatic tendon 50, a fixed seat E51, an inner and outer pulley group of the base, a fixed seat F54, and a range extender pulley assembly 63.
[0061] The chain transfer plate assembly 43 is arranged on the static platform 3. The chain transfer plate assembly 43 can only move horizontally relative to the static platform assembly 3. One end of the translation pneumatic tendon 50 is installed on the fixed seat E51, and the fixed seat E51 is installed on the static platform assembly 3. The other end of the translation pneumatic tendon 50 is connected to the range extender pulley assembly 63. The range extender pulley assembly 63 is arranged on the fixed seat F54, and the fixed seat F54 is installed on the static platform assembly 3. The inner and outer pulley group of the base is arranged at the outer end of the static platform assembly 3. One end of the rope 49 is installed on the fixed seat F54. The rope 49 bypasses the range extender pulley group of the range extender pulley assembly 63, the inner and outer pulley group of the base, and the inner pulley 432 of the vertical chain transfer plate assembly 43. The other end of the rope 49 is fixed to the vertical assembly 2.
[0062] The vertical assembly 2 includes a vertical joint member 21 and a rope fixing member 22. The rope fixing member 22 is installed at the top of the vertical joint member 21 for fixing the rope 49 coming from the inner pulley 432.
[0063] The vertical chain transfer plate assembly 43 includes a top pulley 431, an inner pulley 432, a limit block 433, and a guide slider 434. The top pulley 431 is used for winding the rope 49 in the vertical assembly 2. The inner pulley 432 is used for winding the rope 49 in the vertical assembly drive mechanism 5. The limit block 433 is used for sliding on the vertical assembly 2 to limit the movement of the vertical assembly 2 in the horizontal plane (y-axis or x-axis). The guide slider 434 is used for sliding on the side of the static platform assembly 3. The rope 49 of the vertical assembly drive mechanism 5 starts from the translation pneumatic tendon 50, and finally the end of the rope is fixed at the rope end fixing member 22 of the vertical assembly 2. The two sets of vertical movement joint drive mechanisms 4 are symmetrically arranged relative to the base. Each set of vertical assembly drive mechanisms 5 includes two translation pneumatic tendons 50. When one side of the two pneumatic tendons of each set of vertical assembly drive mechanisms 5 contracts and the other side elongates, the movable platform 11 can move in the positive and negative directions of the y-axis. When contracting simultaneously, it can move in the negative direction of the z-axis.
[0064] With reference to Figure 8, the range extender pulley assembly 63 includes a movable pulley seat 631, a range extender guide pulley 632, and a fixed pulley seat 633; four range extender guide pulleys 632 are respectively arranged on the movable pulley seat 631 and the fixed pulley seat 633, a rope is wound around the eight range extender guide pulleys 632, the fixed pulley seat 633 is installed on the static platform assembly 3, and the other end of the movable platform pneumatic tendon 61 is connected to the movable pulley seat 631.
[0065] The movable pulley seat 631 is fixed to the end of the platform pneumatic tendon 50, and four range extender guide pulleys 632 are fixed on the movable pulley seat 631. This assembly can achieve an eight-fold increase in range, improving the movement stroke of the rope and solving the problem of the short working stroke of the pneumatic tendon.
[0066] Refer to Figure 8 , the cable parallel fracture reduction robot described in this application is of the 2-PPSP configuration. The movable platform 11 and the static platform assembly 3 are connected by two sets of vertical moving joints. The number of vertical moving joints can also be increased, such as Figure 9 the 3-PPSP configuration shown, that is, a three-link cable parallel fracture reduction robot, and Figure 10 the 4-PPSP configuration shown, that is, a four-link cable parallel fracture reduction robot. The vertical moving joint drive mechanisms and the movable platform moving joint drive mechanisms of the three-link and four-link robots are similar to the corresponding drive mechanisms of the two-link robot, but there is no need to add an impedance control mechanism on the movable platform. That is, the three-link robot is driven by 7 pneumatic tendons, and the four-link robot is driven by 8 pneumatic tendons. Both are redundant drives and can achieve six-degree-of-freedom motion.
