Therefore, the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.

[0051] Hand rehabilitation is a gradual process. For hand disabilities caused by various diseases or accidents, it is difficult to achieve immediate rehabilitation through surgery, etc., and a large amount of continuous rehabilitation exercises are required afterwards. In order to facilitate patients to carry out continuous rehabilitation training and achieve good rehabilitation effects, it is of great significance to develop low-cost and highly portable home hand rehabilitation training aids. At the same time, it is also important to use training aids to enhance the fun of the training process to help patients persist in actively carrying out rehabilitation exercises.

[0052] See also Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a force feedback rehabilitation fingerboard, comprising a fingerboard 100, a measuring module 200, a signal processing module 300, a display module 400 and a music feedback module 500. The fingerboard 100 is used as the main body of rehabilitation training, and its shape is adapted to the shape of the hand. The hand is fixed on the fingerboard 100 and performs flexion, extension, pressing and other actions to perform rehabilitation exercises; the measuring module 200 is connected to the fingerboard 100, and may include, for example, a pressure sensor for collecting pressure signals; the signal processing module 300 is connected to the measuring module 200, and converts and processes the pressure signals and sends them to the display module 400 and / or the music feedback module 500. The hand force data can be monitored in real time through the display module 400 to track the training process, and the pressure signals of different fingers can be converted into different sounds by using the music feedback module 500, so as to enhance the interest of the training and improve the enthusiasm of the patient for rehabilitation exercises.

[0053] See also Figures 1 to 8According to an embodiment of the present invention, the fingerboard 100 includes a first flexible layer 110, a support plate 120 and a second flexible layer 130, the shape of which is adapted to the shape of the hand so as to fit the hand for exercise, the first flexible layer 110 is formed with a plurality of raised cavity structures corresponding to the five fingers and / or the palm and / or the wrist, the support plate 120 is connected to the first flexible layer 110 and is located on the opposite side of the raised cavity, a plurality of sensing units are formed between the support plate 120 and the first flexible layer 110, each sensing unit is connected to at least one pipe 150; the measuring module 200 is connected to the pipe 150 to collect the internal pressure signal of the sensing unit; the second flexible layer 130 is connected to the side of the support plate 120 away from the first flexible layer 110 and covers the support plate 120, the first flexible layer 110, the support plate 120 and the second flexible layer 130 are stacked and fixed in sequence to form an integral fingerboard 100.

[0054] It should be noted that the sensing unit is formed between the first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120, and is a sealed cavity structure. The first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120 on both sides thereof can provide contact support for the fingers. When the hand is fixed on the finger plate 100 for rehabilitation exercises, each sealed cavity will be squeezed to cause pressure changes inside it. Each sensing unit is connected to the corresponding pressure sensor through the pipeline 150, and the internal pressure signal of the corresponding sealed cavity is collected through the pressure sensor. The signal processing module 300 is connected to the pressure sensor, obtains the pressure signal, converts it, and obtains the hand force data, which is then sent to the subsequent module, thereby indirectly realizing the measurement of force data at different positions of the hand.

[0055] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120 may be connected by, for example, adhesive bonding to ensure the sealing of the connection, so that a cavity of a corresponding structure may be formed at the corresponding position. Each cavity in each sensing unit is connected by a pipe 150 and is connected to an external pressure sensor. By measuring the pressure inside the sensing unit, the force data of the hand during rehabilitation training can be obtained. Specifically, when the hand is fixed to the fingerboard 100 and performs flexion, extension, pressing and other actions, the surface of the first flexible layer 110 is deformed under the action of the hand force, and the pressure inside the sensing unit also changes. The pressure signal is collected by the pressure sensor of the measurement module 200 and the corresponding cavity pressure data and hand force data can be obtained through subsequent processing.

[0056] See also Figures 1 to 8According to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of sensing units are respectively arranged corresponding to the positions of the five fingers, and are connected to the pressure sensor through at least one pipeline 150 to obtain the pressure signals at the corresponding finger positions. Specifically, the sensing units include a plurality of thumb area sensing units 111, and / or a plurality of index finger area sensing units 112, and / or a plurality of middle finger area sensing units 113, and / or a plurality of ring finger area sensing units 114, and / or a plurality of little finger area sensing units 115, and / or a plurality of palm area sensing units 116, and / or a plurality of wrist area sensing units 117. The thumb area sensing unit 111, the index finger area sensing unit 112, the middle finger area sensing unit 113, the ring finger area sensing unit 114, and the little finger area sensing unit 115 are respectively arranged corresponding to the thumb position, the index finger position, the middle finger position, the ring finger position, and the little finger position, and are connected to the pressure sensor through their respective pipes 150 to sense the pressure change in the sensing unit at each finger, thereby measuring the force data of each finger. The sensing unit can be set at the required position according to training needs; the palm area sensing unit 116 and the wrist area sensing unit 117 are respectively arranged corresponding to the palm and wrist positions, and are connected to the pressure sensor through their respective pipes 150 to measure the force data of the palm and wrist.

[0057] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to an embodiment of the present invention, each finger includes a plurality of sensing units corresponding to the positions of the phalanges, respectively, and can measure the force data of different positions of the same finger. Specifically, for example, two thumb area sensing units 111 are provided corresponding to the thumb area, respectively located on the distal phalanx and proximal phalanx areas of the thumb; three index finger area sensing units 112 are provided corresponding to the index finger area, respectively located on the distal phalanx, middle phalanx and proximal phalanx areas of the index finger, and the sensing units of the remaining three finger areas are provided similarly to the index finger area, so that each finger is connected to the sensor through a plurality of sensing units, and can further measure the force of each phalanx separately.

[0058] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to an embodiment of the present invention, each sensing unit is composed of a plurality of connected capsules 140, and the capsules 140 correspond to the raised cavity structures of the first flexible layer 110. It can be understood that a plurality of raised cavity structures are provided on the surface of the first flexible layer 110. When the first flexible layer 110 is adhered to the support plate 120, the first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120 can be separated to form a plurality of capsule 140 structures, each raised cavity as a capsule 140, and a plurality of capsules 140 are interconnected to form a sensing unit. The raised flexible capsule 140 structure can enable the sensing unit to better sense the force of the finger and thus deform, thereby obtaining its pressure signal, and ensuring the sensitivity and accuracy of the measurement.

[0059] See also Figure 8According to an embodiment of the present invention, further, each capsule 140 may include multiple sub-areas, and the sub-areas are not connected to each other; in each sensing unit, the sub-areas in the same direction in each capsule 140 are connected by a pipe 150 to form a sub-unit, and each sub-unit is used to sense forces in different directions.

[0060] Specifically, see Figure 8 For example, in each sensing unit, the interior of the capsule 140 is divided into two independent chambers, located in the front and rear, respectively, corresponding to the first sub-area 141 and the second sub-area 142. The first sub-areas 141 of all capsules 140 are connected by a pipe 150 to form a first sub-unit, and the second sub-areas 142 are connected by another different pipe 150 to form a second sub-unit. The first sub-unit and the second sub-unit can sense forces from different directions in the same area, thereby realizing multi-dimensional force measurement. Of course, in other embodiments, the capsule 140 can also be divided into two independent left and right sub-areas, and different sensing units can be combined in a variety of partitioning methods, so as to distinguish the positive pressure applied by the hand and the friction force of the front and back and / or left and right, etc.

[0061] It should be noted that the number of sub-areas in the capsule 140 can also be set to 3, 4 or more, and the number of sub-units in each sensing unit can be 3, 4 or more, and each sub-unit is connected by a pipe 150, so as to sense forces from multiple dimensions. On this basis, the capsule 140 can be pressurized by a fluid medium, and then the deformation of the capsule 140 can generate pressure and other stimulations to the corresponding hand, thereby generating tactile feedback.

[0062] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to an embodiment of the present invention, in each group of sensing units, a plurality of capsules 140 are arranged in an array and connected through a pipe 150. For example, five sensing units correspond to five finger areas respectively, and the raised cavities on the surface of the first flexible layer 110 area corresponding to each finger are arranged in an array, and the capsules 140 in each group of sensing units are arranged in an array, and the capsules 140 are connected through a pipe 150. Specifically, for example, the capsules 140 can be arranged in two columns and multiple rows, and a plurality of capsules 140 on each column are connected, and the capsules 140 in the same row are connected to each other, and the pipe 150 connects the capsules 140 in each row and column in a tic-tac-toe shape. It can be understood that the number and arrangement of the capsules 140 can have a variety of different forms according to different hand shapes, different structures of the fingerboard 100, etc. In other embodiments, the grouping and corresponding positions of the sensing units can also have a variety of forms according to the area to be measured.

[0063] See also Figures 1 to 9According to an embodiment of the present invention, one end of the pipe 150 is connected to the capsule 140, and the other end is connected to the measurement module 200. Specifically, the pipes 150 do not interfere with each other, extend out of the finger plate 100 and are connected to the measurement module 200 to obtain the pressure signal of the capsule group of each finger area. It can be understood that the capsule 140 can be an air bag or other fluid bag, and the capsule 140 and the pipe 150 can be filled with a certain fluid medium.

[0064] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to one embodiment of the present invention, the support plate 120 includes a finger portion and a palm portion, and is a plastic plate, wherein the finger portion can be bent to the upper and lower sides and maintain the shape after plastic deformation, so that the finger plate 100 can be bent up and down to adapt to the hand. For example, the support plate 120 can be made of a thin metal with a certain hardness, and can be bent and deformed while having a certain hardness, and maintain the shape after plastic deformation. Under the action of a certain external force, it can restore its original shape and be used repeatedly. When the finger is performing pressing training, the finger portion of the support plate 120 is bent upward or downward to a certain extent, so that it can fit the patient's hand better. When the finger is performing flexion and extension exercise, the support plate 120 and the capsule 140 of the first flexible layer 110 can provide a certain resistance when contacting and supporting the hand to achieve correction and exercise of the finger, and can achieve force measurement by squeezing the capsule 140.

[0065] See also Figures 1 to 8 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first flexible layer 110 and the second flexible layer 130 are made of flexible materials and cover and wrap the support plate 120 to ensure the integrity of the fingerboard 100 and the comfort during use; the capsule 140 between the first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120 is also more likely to deform under the action of force, thereby ensuring the sensitivity of measurement. At the same time, when the finger moves, the flexible capsule 140 massages the surface of the finger without causing discomfort.

[0066] It is understandable that the fingerboard 100 should also be provided with fixings to ensure that the hand and the fingerboard 100 are fixed during training. The fixings may be, for example, elastic straps or Velcro, which may be provided at the wrists and fingers for easy adjustment and fixation.

[0067] See also Figures 1 to 9According to an embodiment of the present invention, the measuring module 200 may include a pressure sensor connected to one end of the pipeline 150 to obtain the pressure signal of the sensing unit corresponding to the pipeline 150, and then process the signal through the signal processing module 300. Specifically, the signal processing module 300 may include, for example, a signal conditioning unit, an analog-to-digital conversion unit, and a communication unit. The signal conditioning unit is used to obtain the pressure signal, condition it, and convert it into a conditioned signal; the analog-to-digital conversion unit obtains the conditioned signal and converts it into a digital signal; the communication unit obtains the digital signal and sends it.

[0068] See also Figures 1 to 9 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the display module 400 is communicatively connected to the signal processing module 300 to receive the digital signal sent by the communication unit and display it in real time, so as to intuitively track and monitor the training process. The display module 400 can be, for example, a display screen, or other electronic device communicatively connected to the signal processing module 300, which can view and monitor the hand training data at any time, so as to facilitate the medical staff to analyze the rehabilitation treatment effect.

[0069] See also Figures 1 to 9 According to one embodiment of the present invention, the music feedback module 500 includes a controller 510 and a sound generating module 520. The controller 510 is connected to the signal processing module 300 to receive the digital signal sent by the communication unit. The sound generating module 520 is connected to the controller 510. After receiving the pressure data and the corresponding position information, the controller 510 sends an instruction to control the sound generating module 520 to emit the corresponding sound. Specifically, for example, the signal processing module 300 sends the force data corresponding to different fingers to the corresponding processing unit in the controller 510, and after processing, sends instructions to control the sound generating module 520 to emit corresponding sounds. When the user presses the capsule 140 in the thumb area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "do" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the index finger area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "re" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the middle finger area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "mi" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the ring finger area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "fa" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the little finger area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "sol" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the palm area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "la" sound; when the user presses the capsule 140 in the wrist area, the sound generating module 520 will emit a "si" sound. Furthermore, the combination of pressure from multiple fingers can also produce a variety of sounds, and the loudness of the sound varies with different pressures. At the same time, the duration of pressure can control the extension of the sound. Patients can fully experience the joy of playing during rehabilitation training and effectively enhance their enthusiasm for rehabilitation treatment.

[0070] See also Figures 1 to 9 According to one embodiment of the present invention, the music feedback module 500 also includes a switch connected to the controller 510, which can control the on and off of the circuit of the music feedback module 500, realize the switching between the music performance mode and the silent mode, and adapt to various training modes for different groups of people.

[0071] It can be understood that the connection circuits of multiple modules such as the measurement module 200, the signal processing module 300, and the music feedback module 500 can be integrated into a control board and fixed on the fingerboard 100 or inside the fingerboard 100. The entire device is simple, light and easy to carry.

[0072] See also Figures 1 to 9 According to one embodiment of the present invention, when performing rehabilitation training, the support plate 120 is adjusted according to the angle of the fingers so that the finger plate 100 fits the hand, and the finger plate 100 is fixed under the palm. When the fingers bend downward or press the capsule 140, the pressure of the sensing unit in the corresponding area changes; or the finger plate 100 can be fixed on the back of the patient's hand in the reverse direction, and the convex side of the capsule 140 is attached to the back of the hand, and the finger plate 100 is bent at an appropriate angle. When the patient stretches out his five fingers, he is subjected to the resistance of the finger plate 100 and presses the capsule 140, and the pressure of the sensing unit in the corresponding area changes; the measurement module 200 receives The pressure signal of the sensing unit is processed by the signal processing module 300 and then sent to the display module 400 and / or the music feedback module 500. The hand force data can be displayed through the display module 400 for monitoring and analysis. When the music feedback module 500 is turned on, different sounds can be emitted when each finger moves, thereby enhancing the interest of the training. Music elements can also be added when formulating corresponding rehabilitation training plans based on the patient's condition, such as completing the performance of a piece of music in one training session, etc., so that the patient can experience the joy of performance during the treatment process, further enhance the patient's enthusiasm for treatment, and improve the rehabilitation training effect.

[0073] The force feedback rehabilitation fingerboard of the present invention is a fingerboard 100 which is connected and stacked in sequence as an integral part by a first flexible layer 110, a support plate 120 and a second flexible layer 130. The support plate 120 can be bent to adapt to the patient's hand state and assist in realizing force measurement during rehabilitation training. The flexible layers on both sides ensure comfortable wearing. A plurality of sensing units are formed between the first flexible layer 110 and the support plate 120. Each sensing unit includes a plurality of capsules 140 which are interconnected. During rehabilitation training, the pressure of the sensing units in different finger areas can be detected by a pressure sensor to obtain force data of hand movement. The capsules 140 and the sensing units can be further divided into different zones to realize multi-dimensional force perception and measurement.
