一种基于能量存储的髋膝关节被动外骨骼助力装置A passive exoskeleton assisting device for hip and knee joint based on energy storage

技术领域technical field

本发明属于下肢外骨骼技术领域,更具体地,涉及一种基于能量存储的髋膝关节被动外骨骼助力装置。The invention belongs to the technical field of lower extremity exoskeletons, and more particularly relates to an energy storage-based passive exoskeleton assisting device for hip and knee joints.

背景技术Background technique

行走是人们日常生活中最常见的运动之一,人们平均每天会走上万步。然而,行走过程中会消耗大量的能量,尽管人们会根据不同的路况优化自己的行走策略以尽可能降低能量消耗,人们的行走距离仍往往会因为体力不支而受到限制。此外,对于某些有运动困难或障碍的群体,如大体重人群、老年人、下肢关节炎患者等,其行走效率的下降给日常生活带来了很大的障碍。因此,能降低行走代谢能消耗的外骨骼具有很强的应用价值。Walking is one of the most common sports in people's daily life, and people take tens of thousands of steps every day on average. However, a lot of energy is consumed during walking. Although people optimize their walking strategies according to different road conditions to reduce energy consumption as much as possible, people's walking distance is often limited due to physical exhaustion. In addition, for some groups with movement difficulties or obstacles, such as heavy weight people, the elderly, and patients with lower extremity arthritis, the decline in walking efficiency has brought great obstacles to daily life. Therefore, exoskeletons that can reduce the metabolic energy consumption of walking have strong application value.

现有的外骨骼装置可以分为主动式外骨骼装置和被动式外骨骼装置。其中,主动式外骨骼多采用电机对人体进行助力,因其重量大、灵活性差等缺点难以达到降低代谢能的目的。被动外骨骼通过行走周期中能量的回收和利用提高使用者的行走效率,不需要电机助力,因此重量可大大降低,且方便穿戴,更适合在日常生活中使用。现有的被动式外骨骼装置要么是只能实现辅助髋关节伸展,要么是只能实现辅助髋关节屈曲,不能同时实现辅助髋关节伸展和屈曲,外骨骼助力效率有限。并且现有的被动式外骨骼装置仅能实现在步态周期的支撑相前期、支撑相后期、摆动相前期或摆动相后期中的一个或两个时段发挥作用,而不能实现在整个步态周期内都能给与外骨骼助力。Existing exoskeleton devices can be divided into active exoskeleton devices and passive exoskeleton devices. Among them, active exoskeletons mostly use motors to assist the human body, and it is difficult to achieve the purpose of reducing metabolic energy due to their disadvantages such as heavy weight and poor flexibility. Passive exoskeletons improve the walking efficiency of users through the recovery and utilization of energy during the walking cycle, and do not require motor assistance, so the weight can be greatly reduced, and it is easy to wear, making it more suitable for use in daily life. Existing passive exoskeleton devices can only achieve assisted hip joint extension or flexion, but cannot achieve both assisted hip joint extension and flexion, and the exoskeleton assisting efficiency is limited. Moreover, the existing passive exoskeleton devices can only function in one or two periods of the stance phase, the stance phase, the swing phase, or the swing phase of the gait cycle, but not in the entire gait cycle. Can give exoskeleton help.
