Problems solved by technology

Therefore, we choose pneumatic muscles as actuators, but there is also a disadvantage of pneumatic muscles as actuators, that is, a single pneumatic muscle can only provide one-way force, which cannot satisfy the two-way movement of human joints, so it usually needs to work with other components

Abstract

The invention discloses an exoskeleton joint experiment platform driven by pneumatic muscles, which belongs to the technical field of exoskeleton joint testing. The experimental platform includes a bracket and a working platform installed on the bracket, the working platform includes a joint component, a pneumatic muscle component, and a test matching component, and the joint component, the pneumatic muscle component and the testing matching component are all installed on the working platform , the pneumatic muscle component cooperates with the test matching component to drive the joint component to rotate. Through the measurement of the size and length of the pneumatic muscle tension, the joint rotation angle and the force of the limbs on the single arm during the movement, the test of three different drive matching modes is completed to obtain the advantages and disadvantages of each matching combination.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of exoskeleton joint testing, in particular to an exoskeleton joint experiment platform driven by pneumatic muscles. Background technique [0002] With the increasing number of elderly population and stroke patients, as well as the increase in the cost of adjuvant therapy, the demand for services for the elderly and rehabilitation has become increasingly prominent. The development and application of rehabilitation robots will become an important means to solve the aging problem in the future, which has positive theoretical value and practical significance. [0003] The traditional rehabilitation training method mainly consists of medical staff and family members helping patients to use simple equipment to drive the affected limb for auxiliary training. Because this kind of training method consumes too much energy and is easily affected by the subjective factors of the therapist, it is difficult to guarantee ...
