Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of exoskeletons, and in particular relates to a wearable exoskeleton with an auxiliary support function. Background Art

[0002] In existing industrial production, standing is the most suitable working posture for people. However, the production workshop environment is extremely complex, and different assembly positions have different working environments. Workers often need to squat or bend their knees for a long time to work, which will cause damage to the leg muscles and knee joints. In addition, many assembly environments are extremely small, making it difficult for people to rest and adjust in these environments. Long-term work will lead to physical fatigue, reduced work efficiency, and in severe cases, occupational musculoskeletal diseases.

[0003] Chinese patent application number CN202321000366.X discloses a wearable exoskeleton with auxiliary support function, comprising: a thigh bar, a calf bar, and a knee joint self-locking structure. The inner side of the thigh bar is fixedly connected to a thigh support fixture. The knee joint self-locking structure includes a thigh bar connecting rod, a calf bar connecting rod, a driving member, and a brake rod. The upper end of the thigh bar connecting rod is connected to the thigh bar, and the lower end is rotatably connected to the upper end of the calf bar connecting rod. The lower end of the calf bar connecting rod is connected to the upper end of the calf bar. The brake rod is movably mounted on the thigh bar connecting rod and can lock / unlock the connection angle between the thigh bar connecting rod and the calf bar connecting rod under the drive of the driving member. This wearable exoskeleton with auxiliary support function has a simple structure and is easy to use. It can help the user maintain posture and provide auxiliary support for the user, effectively relieving the pressure on the user's knee joint and leg muscles.

[0004] However, in actual use, the exoskeleton design of these devices primarily focuses on improving the user's load-bearing capacity and walking efficiency, simulating and strengthening the mechanical structure of human joints through a rigid frame. While these designs are effective in improving the user's ability to walk upright and carry loads, in practice, existing exoskeletons often fail to provide sufficient flexibility and comfort, especially when the user needs to rest or sit down. In particular, when the user sits down, the fixed structure of traditional exoskeletons may hinder the natural sitting posture, preventing the user from sitting down to rest easily or effectively relaxing their legs after sitting down, affecting the user's experience and willingness to use.

[0005] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content
