Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rehabilitation training equipment, in particular to a single lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation training device. Background Art

[0002] Patients with impaired or incomplete lower limb function cannot walk like normal people, which has a great impact on their physical and mental health, so rehabilitation training is very important. At present, there are two main ways for such patients to conduct leg rehabilitation training. One is to wear an upright lower limb exoskeleton. The lower limb exoskeleton, driven by a module or other drive structure, will drive the legs to walk or step, thereby meeting the body's demand for leg exercise. The other is to install a rehabilitation mechanism next to the bed to drive the legs to perform flexion and extension and leg lifting while the patient is lying flat.

[0003] The walking action of the legs is the most frequent action of people and the action that best conforms to the characteristics of the human body structure. Therefore, training the legs to walk is the most commonly chosen rehabilitation program. However, for patients lying flat, the current rehabilitation devices can only enable them to perform the aforementioned flexion and extension and leg lifting actions on the bed. Compared with walking actions, these actions are more rigid and have less rehabilitation effect on patients. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application provides a single lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation training device, which can solve the problem that current rehabilitation devices can only enable patients to perform flexion and extension and leg lifting movements in a lying position.

[0005] In the present application, a single lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation training device is provided, including: a frame, a first motor, a thigh exoskeleton, a first strap, a first connecting piece, a second motor, a calf exoskeleton, a second strap, a second connecting piece, and a foot pedal; the output shaft of the first motor is fixedly connected to the frame, the housing of the first motor is fixedly connected to one end of the thigh exoskeleton, and the thigh exoskeleton is provided with a first strap for fixing the user's thigh; the other end of the thigh exoskeleton is provided with a first connecting piece, one end of the first connecting piece is fixedly connected to the thigh exoskeleton and the first connecting piece is fixedly connected to the thigh exoskeleton.

One end of the second connecting member 9 is fixedly connected to the calf exoskeleton 7, and the other end is fixedly provided with the foot pedal 10. The surface where the foot pedal 10 is located is perpendicular to the setting direction of the calf exoskeleton 7, and is used to provide a pedal position for the patient.

[0026] See also Figure 5 In one embodiment, the machine body 11 is further included, and the frame 1 is arranged on the machine body 11. With such an arrangement, it is more convenient to use the machine body 11.

[0027] See also Figure 5 In one embodiment, the frame 1 is detachably connected to the bed body 11 by a threaded connection. With this arrangement, the patient can remove it and use it elsewhere after recovery, which is more flexible, and the threaded connection method is easier to set up and operate.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the first protective shell 12 and the second protective shell 13 are further included. The first protective shell 12 is fixedly connected between the output shaft of the first motor 2 and the frame 1, and the thigh exoskeleton 3 is rotatably connected to the first protective shell 12; the second protective shell 13 is fixedly connected between the output shaft of the second motor 6 and the first connecting member 5, and the calf exoskeleton 7 is rotatably connected to the second protective shell 13. In this way, the first protective shell 12 and the second protective shell 13 can protect the output shafts of the first motor 2 and the second motor 6, and can also play a certain supporting role.

[0029] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the foot pedal 10 is provided with uneven anti-skid patterns, which can prevent the patient's feet from slipping.
