For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0036] The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0037] First, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 ,Figure 1 This is a perspective view of one embodiment of the linkage device for a rehabilitation training robot according to the present invention; Figure 2 This is a side view of one embodiment of the linkage device for a rehabilitation training robot according to the present invention; Figure 3 for Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the spring assembly along AA in one embodiment. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the linkage device for the rehabilitation training robot includes a pelvic lifting connector 103 and a pelvic swing connector 104 spaced apart. The pelvic lifting connector 103 is enclosed by an upper cover 101 and a lower cover 102 and has a cavity.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, a left connecting rod 105, a lever 106, and a right connecting rod are pivotally connected between the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103 and the pelvic swing connecting seat 104. At the first end of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103 ( Figure 3 Three symmetrically arranged rotating shafts 108 are respectively provided on the right end shown and on the pelvic horizontal connecting seat 104.

[0039] The right ends of left link 105 and right link 107 ( Figure 3 The direction in the middle) is rotatably connected to the pelvic swing connecting seat 104 via the corresponding rotating shaft 108. The left end of the left connecting rod 105 and the left end of the right connecting rod 107 (in the middle direction) Figure 3 (in the direction) is connected to the second end of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103 via the corresponding rotating shaft 108. Figure 3 The left end shown is rotatably connected. In this way, the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, the pelvic swing connecting seat 104, the left connecting rod 105 and the right connecting rod 107 form a four-bar linkage, so the pelvic swing connecting seat 104 can swing relative to the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103.

[0040] The right end of the aforementioned lever 106 ( Figure 3 The direction in the middle) is rotatably connected to the pelvic horizontal swing connecting seat 104 via the rotating shaft 108 in the middle of the pelvic horizontal swing connecting seat 104. The lever 106 can be longer than the left connecting rod 105 and the right connecting rod 107, so the lever 106 is rotatably connected to the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103 via the rotating shaft 108 in the middle of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, thereby making the open end of the lever 106 (in the middle direction) Figure 3 The left end (as shown) extends into the second end cavity of the pelvic lifting connector 103. During the swinging of the pelvic swing connector 104 relative to the pelvic lifting connector 103, the open end of the lever 106 swings within the cavity of the pelvic lifting connector 103. In this way, the lever 106 provides rigid support for the aforementioned four-bar linkage, improving its stability.

[0041] Furthermore, on the upper and lower sides of the open end of the lever 106 ( Figure 3 Two spring assemblies are symmetrically arranged between the two sides of the pelvic lifting connector 103 (in the direction shown). The two spring assemblies can provide damping when the lever 106 swings, thereby limiting the rotational speed and rotational acceleration of the lever 106.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, each spring assembly may include a first spring 109 and a spring retainer 110. Since the two spring assemblies are symmetrically arranged, the upper spring assembly will be used as an example. The spring retainer 110 is fixedly mounted to the upper inner wall of the pelvic lifting connector 103. The upper end of the first spring 109, i.e., the end facing away from the lever 106, is connected to the spring retainer 110, and the lower end of the first spring 109, i.e., the end facing the lever 106, is connected to the open end of the lever 106. When the lever 106 rotates clockwise around the rotation axis 108 on the pelvic lifting connector 103, the lower first spring 109 is stretched, and the upper first spring 109 is compressed, thereby providing a downward damping force to the lever 106, thus limiting the rotational speed and acceleration of the lever 106. Similarly, when the lever 106 rotates counterclockwise around the rotation axis 108 of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, the upper first spring 109 is stretched and the lower first spring 109 is compressed, thereby providing an upward damping force to the lever 106.

[0043] Please refer to the following. Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 for Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the spring assembly along another embodiment of AA; Figure 5 This is a structural schematic diagram of another embodiment of the spring assembly. In addition to the embodiment of the spring assembly disclosed above, the following will combine... Figure 4 and Figure 5 Another embodiment of the spring assembly will be described. Since the two spring assemblies are symmetrically arranged, the upper spring assembly will still be used as an example for explanation. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the spring assembly may include a top block 112 and a second spring 111. The first end of the second spring 111 ( Figure 4 The lower end (as shown) is inserted into the top block 112 at the end facing the lever 106. The second end of the second spring 111 ( Figure 4 The upper end (shown) of the lever 106, which is opposite to the lever 106, is connected to the upper side of the pelvic lifting connector 103. In this way, when the open end of the lever 106 rotates around the rotating shaft 108, it can press against the top block 112. At this time, the second spring 111 is compressed, thereby providing damping force.

[0044] Furthermore, to ensure that the top block 112 and the second spring 111 can slide along their own axis without tilting, the spring assembly also includes a guide block 113 and a guide shaft 114. The guide block 113 is fixedly connected to the upper inner wall of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, and the end of the top block 112 facing away from the lever 106 ( Figure 4 The upper end shown is slidably fitted onto the guide block 113. The first end of the guide shaft 114, that is, the end facing the lever 106 ( Figure 4 The lower end (as shown) is inserted into the second spring 111 and fixedly connected to the top block 112. The second end of the guide shaft 114, that is, the end opposite to the lever 106 ( Figure 4 The upper end (as shown) is inserted into the guide block 113. In this way, when the top block 112 is pressed by the lever 106, the second spring is compressed, and the guide shaft 114 and the top block 112 can slide along the guide block 113, thereby limiting the sliding direction of the top block 112, preventing the top block 112 from tilting, and improving the reliability of the spring assembly.

[0045] Furthermore, to make the sliding of the top block 112 smoother, the open end of the lever 106 can be pivotally connected to the lever bearing 115 via a pivot shaft, and the top block 112 is arranged in an arc shape at the end facing the lever 106. When the lever 106 presses against the top block 112, the lever bearing 115 can rotate around its own axis along the arc surface of the top block 112, thereby reducing friction and making the sliding of the top block 112 smoother.

[0046] In the embodiments of the two spring assemblies described above, since the first spring and the second spring are located in the cavity of the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, they will not be affected by the left connecting rod 105 and the right connecting rod 107 when being replaced or repaired, thus facilitating disassembly and repair.

[0047] Please see last. Figure 6 And refer to again Figure 5 , Figure 6 for Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the locked component. (Example) Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the linkage device also includes a locking assembly, comprising a limiting pin 118 and a tapered hole 119 extending to the upper end of the lever 106. The tapered hole 119 can be set at 140°, and the lower end of the limiting pin 118 can also be set at 140°. The lower end of the limiting pin 118 ( Figure 6The limiting pin 118 (in the direction of the movement) can be threadedly connected to the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, or a pin sleeve 117 can be provided on the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103, with the lower end of the limiting pin 118 threadedly connected to the pin sleeve 117. When the lower end of the limiting pin 118 engages with the tapered hole 119, it can limit the swing of the lever 106, thereby locking the linkage device. When the lower end of the limiting pin 118 disengages from the tapered hole 119, the lock is released, and the pelvic swing connecting seat 104 can swing relative to the pelvic lifting connecting seat 103.

[0048] Furthermore, at the upper end of the limit pin 118 ( Figure 6 The pelvic lifting connector 103 is also threadedly connected to a knob 116, which is located above the pelvic lifting connector 103. This allows the user to easily adjust the limit pin 118.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
