Description

Rigidity-variable soft pneumatic rehabilitation hand
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical rehabilitation training robots, and particularly relates to a variable-rigidity soft pneumatic rehabilitation hand.
Background
In the world today, hand injuries are becoming increasingly common due to the increasing aging of the population. The prevalence of stroke and other diseases brings more and more burden to financial resources and physical therapy personnel in China. According to the survey of the world health organization, the Chinese stroke incidence rate is far higher than that of developed countries such as the United states. Patients with hand disability diseases are difficult to finish the most basic daily life behaviors of eating, dressing and the like, and great inconvenience is brought to the patients. In order to reduce the impact of stroke on the patient, it is effective to have the patient perform repetitive rehabilitation training to improve the strength, grip accuracy, range of motion, etc. of the patient's hand. The traditional rehabilitation robot is mostly composed of rigid components, such as a linear brake, a rigid connecting rod, a motor and the like. These components are capable of exerting significant forces to perform challenging rehabilitation tasks. It has however many disadvantages: the volume and the weight are large, and the carrying is inconvenient; the wearing is uncomfortable, the freedom degree and the natural movement of the joint of the patient are limited, and the secondary injury is easily caused to the patient; the cost and maintenance are expensive and it is difficult for the ordinary household to undertake such expensive treatment.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problem of providing a variable-rigidity soft pneumatic rehabilitation hand aiming at the defects of the background technology.
The invention adopts the following technical scheme for solving the technical problems:
the variable-rigidity soft pneumatic recovery hand comprises gloves, wherein soft drivers are arranged on five fingers of each glove and comprise soft driver cavities, cavities are formed in the bottoms of the soft driver cavities, air pumps are connected to the cavities through hoses, the upper surfaces of the driver cavities are comb-shaped, and the comb tooth density at the finger joints is smaller than that at the finger backs.
Furthermore, the upper surface of the cavity of the driver is provided with a plurality of comb tooth areas and platform areas which are distributed in a staggered mode, the comb tooth areas are located at the finger joints, the platform areas are located at the back of the fingers, and the length of the comb tooth areas is gradually shortened from the finger heels to the finger tips.
Furthermore, the two ends of the driver cavity, which are located in the cavity, are provided with deformation-free limiting ends.
Further, the bottom of the cavity is provided with a bottom limiting layer and a bottom sealing layer, and the top of the soft driver cavity is provided with a top limiting layer.
Further, the bottom restriction layer and the top restriction layer are respectively composed of a non-stretchable woven fabric material and an elastic woven fabric material.
Further, the soft driver lumen is made of a superelastic material.
Furthermore, the outer sides of the fingers of the gloves are provided with soft driver sleeves, one ends of the soft driver sleeves, close to the palms of the gloves, are open, the other ends of the soft driver sleeves are closed, and the soft drivers are arranged in the soft driver sleeves.
Furthermore, the glove and the soft driver sleeve are both made of woven fabric materials.
Compared with the prior art, the invention adopting the technical scheme has the following technical effects:
compared with a rigid material, the whole body of the rehabilitation training device is made of a flexible material, so that the safety of rehabilitation training is greatly improved. The whole mass is small, so that the patient can carry the medical instrument conveniently. Compared with the existing cavity type soft driver, the soft driver of the invention can be customized according to the size of the fingers of a patient, the bending characteristic of the soft driver is more consistent with the biological characteristic of a normal human hand, and the top limiting layer of the driver can avoid the over-expansion of some parts of the driver, enhance the bending capability of the driver and improve the rehabilitation training effect. In addition, the invention has the characteristic of low cost and is more convenient to popularize.

Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the invention is further explained in detail by combining the attached drawings:
the variable-rigidity soft pneumatic rehabilitation hand comprises a glove, wherein a soft driver is arranged on five fingers of the glove and comprises a soft driver cavity, a cavity is formed in the bottom of the soft driver cavity, the cavity is connected with an air pump through a hose, the upper surface of the driver cavity is in a comb shape, and the comb tooth density at the finger joint is smaller than that at the finger back.
The upper surface of the driver cavity is provided with a plurality of comb tooth areas and platform areas which are distributed in a staggered mode, the comb tooth areas are located at finger joints, the platform areas are located at finger backs, and the length of the comb tooth areas is gradually shortened from finger heels to finger tips.
And two ends of the driver cavity, which are positioned in the cavity, are provided with deformation-free limiting ends.
The bottom of cavity is provided with bottom restriction layer and back cover layer, and the top of software driver cavity is provided with the top restriction layer.
The bottom restriction layer and the top restriction layer are respectively composed of a non-stretchable woven fabric material and an elastic woven fabric material.
The soft driver lumen is made of a superelastic material.
The outer sides of the fingers of the gloves are provided with soft driver sleeves, one ends of the soft driver sleeves, which are close to the palms of the gloves, are open, the other ends of the soft driver sleeves are closed, and the soft drivers are arranged in the soft driver sleeves.
The glove and the soft driver sleeve are both made of woven fabric materials.
Description of specific embodiments:
as shown in FIG. 2, the L1 and L2 areas are non-deformation limiting ends, L3 and L4 are platform areas, L5, L6 and L7 are comb tooth areas, and the bending degrees of the finger joints on the same finger are different, and the bending degree of the finger joints closer to the fingertip is smaller, so that the length of the comb tooth area from the finger heel to the fingertip, namely L5-L6-L7, is designed to be gradually shortened to adapt to the difference of the bending degrees of the finger joints, and the bending degree of the soft body driver at each finger joint is changed.
The invention adjusts the hardness of the region by changing the shape of the soft driver in the region corresponding to the knuckle and the back of the finger, and ensures that the bending form of the driver after being inflated is closer to the bending form of a normal hand, namely the bending form of the driver at the knuckle is larger, and the bending deformation at the non-knuckle is small or no deformation.
The bottom limiting layer limits the stretching of the bottom of the driver, so that the driver is bent and deformed along the non-stretchable bottom when inflated; the top limiting layer limits the excessive expansion of the top of the driver and enhances the bending capability of the driver; the driver sheath secures the soft driver and further limits over-inflation of the driver.
The working process of the invention is as follows:
five soft drivers are manufactured according to the actual finger size of the patient, and the actually manufactured soft drivers are ensured to be similar to the simulation analysis result and the actual bending form of the human finger. The soft driver is fixed on the woven glove through the driver sleeve, the soft driver is connected to the air pump through the five long hoses for inflation, and the inflation pressure and speed can be adjusted through arranging control devices such as an electromagnetic valve and the like, so that the active control of the soft driver is realized.
