And when the foot strap is tied to the ankle of the human body, the lower binding piece mounting seat 49 will be restricted by the instep of the human body and will not fall off downward, so it is more stable to use.
[0036] Before use, one exoskeleton is worn on the left leg and the right leg respectively. The specific operation of wearing the exoskeleton on the human body is: first adjust the extension length of the thigh rod 1 relative to the knee joint structure, and the extension length of the supporting foot rod 8 relative to the calf rod 1, so that the length of the exoskeleton is just adapted to the operator's leg length; then place the seat support part 4 against the human buttocks, the knee joint structure 2 against the human knee joint, the thigh rod 1 against the human thigh, the calf rod 3 against the human calf, then tie the upper connecting strap 5 to the human thigh, tie the middle connecting strap 7 to the human knee joint, and tie the foot strap 50 to the human ankle, and the wearing of the exoskeleton is completed; And the position of the adjustment block 15 in the knee joint disc 10 can be adjusted by inserting the locking tongue into the gear adjustment socket 17 at different positions, and then the angle between the thigh rod 1 and the calf rod 3 can be adjusted synchronously, so as to adjust the use mode of the exoskeleton support. The specific operation of adjusting the use mode of the exoskeleton support is as follows: when adjusting the position of the adjustment block 15, it is only necessary to press the unlocking button 23 toward the center direction of the knee joint disc 10. The unlocking button 23 drives the locking tongue 19 to overcome the elastic force of the spring 20 and move toward the center direction of the knee joint disc through the connecting pin 24 until the locking tongue 19 is out of the corresponding gear adjustment socket 17. At this time, the adjustment block 15 is in the unlocked state; then, by rotating the knob cover 25, the adjustment block 15, the unlocking button 23, and the locking tongue 19 are synchronously driven to move along the knee joint disc together. The arc groove 14 of the joint disc 10 moves; when the locking tongue 19 rotates to the next gear adjustment socket 17 with the adjustment block 15, the external force applied to the unlocking button 23 is removed. At this time, the locking tongue 19 will be inserted into the gear adjustment socket 17 under the elastic force of the spring 20, thereby re-locking the adjustment block 15 in the arc groove 14 of the knee joint disc 10, thereby adjusting the position of the adjustment block 15 in the knee joint disc 10; repeat the above-mentioned unlocking and locking steps of the adjustment block 15, and adjust the position of the adjustment block 15 in the knee joint disc 10 by inserting the locking tongue 19 into the gear adjustment plug 17 at different positions. Since the thigh rod 1 is against the adjustment block 15 backward, the position adjustment of the adjustment block 15 can synchronously adjust the angle between the thigh rod 1 and the calf rod 3.
[0037] When the operator needs to sit in a posture close to standing, he only needs to snap the locking tongue 19 into the standing position adjustment socket 171. At this time, the operator will bend his legs. During the flexion of the human legs, the thigh bar 1 will rotate backward with the human thigh relative to the human calf and the calf bar 3 until the thigh bar 1 abuts against the adjustment block 15 in the knee joint structure 2. At this time, the thigh bar 1 and the calf bar 3 will be fixed at a fixed angle, so that the thigh bar 1, the calf bar 3 and the supporting foot bar 8 form a stable supporting structure. At this time, the supporting foot bar 8 of the exoskeleton support is supported on the ground, and the operator's buttocks are supported on the sitting support part. The operator sits on the exoskeleton support in a posture close to standing.
[0038] When the operator needs to sit in a half-squatting posture, he only needs to insert the locking tongue 19 into the half-squatting posture gear adjustment socket 172. At this time, the operator will bend his legs. During the flexion of the human leg, the thigh rod 1 will rotate backward with the human thigh relative to the human calf and the calf rod 3 until the thigh rod 1 abuts against the adjustment block 15 in the knee joint structure 2. At this time, the thigh rod 1 and the calf rod 3 will be fixed at a fixed angle, so that the thigh rod 1, the calf rod 3 and the supporting foot rod 8 form a stable supporting structure. At this time, the supporting foot rod 8 of the exoskeleton support is supported on the ground, and the operator's buttocks are supported on the sitting support part, and the operator sits on the exoskeleton support in a half-squatting posture.
[0039] When the operator needs to walk freely, he only needs to snap the locking tongue 19 into the free walking gear adjustment socket 173. Since the angle at which the human thigh and calf can be freely bent when the exoskeleton bracket is worn on the human leg is the angle a between the adjustment block 15 and the thigh connecting rod 11, when the locking tongue 19 is snapped into the free walking gear adjustment socket 173, the angle a between the adjustment block 15 and the thigh connecting rod 11 is large enough, and the angle a can satisfy the free bending of the human thigh and calf, so that the operator can walk freely without any inconvenience.
[0040] The advantages of the present invention are that after wearing the protective mask, the human body can sit at any time in a posture close to standing or half-squatting, thereby reducing the fatigue of the lower limbs when working, and the human body can also walk naturally after wearing the protective mask without any inconvenience, and the structure is compact and the wearing comfort is high.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any other form of limitation to the present invention. Any modification or equivalent change made based on the technical essence of the present invention still falls within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
