Lower limb massage robot for paralyzed patients

Abstract

The invention discloses a lower limb massage robot for paralyzed patients. The lower limb massage robot comprises a robot body, wherein a working cavity with a rightward opening is arranged in the right wall of the robot body, a sliding cavity is arranged in the circumferential wall of the working cavity, a sliding nut sliding left and right is arranged in the sliding cavity, and sliding screw rods extending left and right are symmetrically arranged up and down in the sliding nut. Back and forth massage of leg muscle is achieved by cooperation of screw nuts with springs, the angle of the robotis changed by cooperation of gear meshing with grooved wheel number setting, so that omni-directional massage of the leg muscle is achieved; the leg muscle is flapped by cooperation of electromagnetism with springs, and the massage effect is achieved; and motion assistance of ankles is achieved by an intermittent gear, and is performed alternately with foot vibration massage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical robots, in particular to a lower limb massage robot for paralyzed patients. Background technique [0002] Paralysis is the reduction or loss of voluntary movement function. It is a common symptom of the nervous system and is caused by nerve, neuromuscular junction or muscle diseases. For the nursing of paralyzed patients, limb massage is an indispensable part. It has beneficial effects such as relieving soft tissue adhesions, smoothing joints, improving joint nutrition, promoting metabolism, and improving the immune function of the human body. However, at this stage, the hospitalization fee is high, and most ordinary patients are treated at home. Family members need to learn about massage and spend time. Caring for patients seriously delays daily work, reduces income, and leads to insufficient treatment expenses. This leads to a vicious circle. Therefore, it is necessary to design a robot that can...

[0002] Paralysis is the reduction or loss of voluntary movement function. It is a common symptom of the nervous system. It has beneficial effects such as relieving soft tissue adhesions, smoothing joints, improving joint nutrition, promoting metabolism, and improving human immune function. However, at this stage, hospitalization costs are high, and ordinary patients are mostly treated at home. Family members need to learn about massage and spend time. Caring for patients seriously delays daily work, reduces income, and leads to insufficient treatment expenses. This is a vicious circle, so it is necessary to design a robot that can massage the lower limbs of paralyzed patients
