Abstract

A wearable apparatus for increasing muscular force includes: a mount body coupled to an upper body of a wearer; a shoulder frame coupled at one end thereof to the mount body at the dorsal surface of the wearer and which is rotatable in up and down direction; a mounting frame coupled at one end thereof to the other end of the shoulder frame to be torsionally rotated; a supporter, which surrounds part of an upper arm of the wearer to support the upper arm of the wearer; and a compensation frame, which is integrally coupled to the supporter to be rotated together with the supporter about a shoulder joint of the wearer. The compensation frame capable of generating supporting force that varies depending on the angle to which the compensation frame is rotated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a wearable muscle strength assisting device, and more particularly, to a device that compensates for a load caused by gravity to support a wearer's upper arm. Background technique [0002] A wearable robot is a robot that is worn on a specific part of the body or supports a specific part of the body to assist the movement of the body, and is designed for medical treatment, military affairs, or work. In particular, wearable robots for work are designed to prevent injuries and assist muscular strength by reducing the load applied to workers. This wearable robot simulates the wearer's external skeleton, so the core of its technology is to design the joints to have the same motion as the actual motion of the body. [0003] In particular, the wearable upper arm muscle strength assisting mechanism includes a manual support device configured to assist the user in supporting the weight of the tool. Typical manual support devi...
