A Novel Design of Lower Limb Rehabilitation Robot Based on Spring Device and Magnesium Alloy

Abstract:

A novel design of lower limb rehabilitation robot was developed for lower limb dysfunction, such as stroke, paraplegia, traumatic brain injury and so on. Through analysis of clinical applicability, the design makes some improvements from material, structure, operation means and control system. In this paper, the spring device and magnesium alloy exoskeletons were introduced carefully, which can adapt changes of human gravity centre as walking and lighten the weight of wear. All of above are important for the clinical applicability of the robot.
