AI Technical Summary
Existing knee-assist exoskeleton devices have a power mechanism located on the outside of the leg, which causes misalignment and leg discomfort. They are also bulky and not suitable for prolonged wear.
A rear-mounted knee-assisted exoskeleton is designed, with a power mechanism acting on the leg from the rear and secured to the back of the leg via a strap assembly. The support arm conforms to the thigh and calf, and a lightweight joint module and adaptive structure are used to ensure stability and flexibility.
It provides stable and lightweight support without affecting knee function, reducing wearing discomfort and fatigue, and is suitable for long-term use.
