Detailed Description
In order to describe the technical contents, the achieved objects and effects of the present invention in detail, the following description will be made with reference to the embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Research finds that in the current prior art, the existing passive partial finger prosthesis cannot realize independent control on the movement of each joint of the finger, and has poor functionality; the existing active partial artificial limb adopts pre-control, has poor man-machine interaction, low control precision and higher cost; in addition, although some active partial artificial limbs adopt real-time electromyographic signals or electroencephalogram signals to control the motion of the artificial limbs, the signal characteristics are complex to identify and extract, the equipment is large, the integration level is low, and the artificial limbs are inconvenient to wear.
Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, as shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a wearable prosthetic glove control method, which includes the steps of:
s1: establishing a mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the body toe/finger of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger;
s2: collecting the actual joint bending angle of a user's body in the limb toe/finger part, and generating a prosthesis motion control instruction according to the mapping relation between the joint bending angle of the user's body in the limb toe/finger part and the joint bending angle of the prosthesis finger 12 at the missing finger;
s3: and controlling the prosthetic finger 12 of the wearable prosthetic glove at the missing finger to complete corresponding actions according to the prosthetic motion control instruction.
As can be seen from the above description, in the present invention, the inventor optimally designs a wearable prosthetic glove control method to effectively predict the motion of the prosthetic finger 12 by constructing a mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the toe/finger of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger, thereby utilizing the actually collected joint bending angle of the toe/finger of the user, and performing real-time control on the motion of the prosthetic finger 12, which can greatly improve the man-machine interaction level and improve the user experience.
It should be noted that, when the wearable prosthetic glove method is actually applied, the prosthetic finger 12 of the wearable prosthetic glove can be effectively controlled without collecting an electromyographic signal or an electroencephalogram signal to control the motion of the prosthetic, and the production cost of the wearable prosthetic glove can be effectively reduced. In addition, in practical application, the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 can be effectively predicted and controlled due to the fact that the mapping relation is constructed, so that man-machine interaction experience is improved, control accuracy of the prosthetic finger 12 is improved, and the method has good popularization prospect and application value.
Further, in the method for controlling a wearable prosthetic glove according to the present invention, in step S1, the method specifically includes the following steps:
enabling the healthy side hand 1 of the user to complete a preset action gesture, collecting the bending angle data of each joint of the healthy side hand 1 of the user when the preset action gesture is completed, and storing the bending angle data into a database;
according to the database, a mapping relation between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the artificial finger 12 at the missing finger is established.
Further, in the wearable prosthetic glove control method according to the present invention, in step S2, the method specifically includes the following steps:
the actual joint bending angle of each healthy finger of the patient side hand 2 of the user is acquired to generate a prosthesis motion control instruction according to the mapping relation between the joint bending angle of the healthy finger of the patient side hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthesis finger 12 at the missing finger.
As shown in fig. 2, in the above technical solution of the present invention, in practical application, a wearable prosthetic glove may be designed to include a data acquisition glove 3 and a prosthetic glove 4, where the data acquisition glove 3 is capable of acquiring the respective joint bending angle data of all the fingers of the user's healthy side hand 1 when completing the gesture of the preset motion, and storing the joint bending angle data together in a database to form a gesture library.
In the present invention, the inventor considers that the operations of the fingers are generally the same or similar when the left hand and the right hand of the user perform the same gesture, so that the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the finger of the other affected hand 2 and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger can be equivalently replaced and correspondingly established according to the obtained database composed of the joint bending angle data of all the fingers when the healthy side hand 1 of the user completes the preset action gesture.
In this case, when the user wears the prosthetic glove 4 and makes a gesture on the affected side hand 2, the prosthetic glove 4 can correspondingly collect the actual joint bending angle of each finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user, so as to predict the motion of the prosthetic finger 12 according to the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger, and generate a prosthetic motion control command, so as to control the motion of the prosthetic finger 12, as shown in fig. 2.
Further, in the wearable prosthetic glove control method according to the present invention, in step S1, the preset motion gesture includes a usual motion gesture of a user.
In the above technical solution of the present invention, a designer may set preset motion gestures in advance, and in order to facilitate a user to complete a usual motion in life by using the prosthetic finger 12 in the prosthetic glove 4 after wearing the prosthetic glove 4, the preset motion gestures may specifically include a usual motion gesture of the user.
Of course, in practical application, the present invention does not put special restrictions and special requirements on the preset motion gestures, and when the designer customizes the personalized prosthetic glove 4 for the user, the designer can set the required preset motion gestures according to the specific requirements of the user.
And, after the preset action gestures are designed, the preset action gestures may be sequenced in advance to form a preset action gesture sequence, so that when the healthy side hand 1 of the user completes each preset action gesture in turn according to the preset action gesture sequence, the action gestures can be classified and stored according to the collected bending angle data of each joint.
Further, in the wearable prosthetic glove control method of the present invention, in step S1, the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger is established, specifically:
the gesture is classified by a deep learning algorithm and a mapping relation between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the artificial finger 12 at the missing finger is established.
Furthermore, in the wearable prosthetic glove control method of the invention, the deep learning algorithm is an RNN algorithm.
Further, in the method for controlling a wearable prosthetic glove according to the present invention, in step S1, the method specifically includes the following steps:
establishing a mapping relationship between the toe bending angle of a user's key at the toe and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger;
the actual toe bending angle of the user's healthy toe is collected to generate a prosthesis motion control command according to the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the user's healthy toe and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger.
As shown in fig. 3, in the above-mentioned technical solution of the present invention, the inventor further improves the wearable prosthetic glove control method considering that in some specific embodiments, the user may need to implement the health of the affected hand 2 without moving the fingers, but only with the movement of the prosthetic finger 12.
At this time, when the wearable prosthetic glove control method is applied, the bending sensor 7 may be further placed on the healthy toe of the user, and the bending sensor 7 may be used to detect the toe bending angle, so as to establish a mapping relationship between the toe bending angle of the user's toe and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger by using the toe bending angle of the user's toe, and accurately control the prosthetic finger 12 to work by using the mapping relationship and matching with the actually collected toe bending angle.
Further, in the wearable prosthetic glove control method of the present invention, the mapping relationship between the toe bending angle of the toe of the user and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger is specifically:
according to the normalization algorithm, a mapping relationship of the toe bending angle of the user's key at the toe and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger is established.
In the above technical solution of the present invention, a designer may pre-establish a mapping relationship between the toe bending angle of the toe of the user and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger according to a normalization algorithm, so as to facilitate the subsequent motion control of the prosthetic finger 12. The normalization algorithm is an algorithm content well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail herein.
Correspondingly, the invention also discloses a wearable prosthetic glove control system, which is used for implementing the wearable prosthetic glove method, and specifically comprises the following steps: the data acquisition glove 3, the prosthetic glove 4, the bending sensor 7, the stay wire 8, the driver 9 and the controller 10;

As can be seen by referring to fig. 4 to 11, in the above technical solutions of the present invention, the wearable prosthetic glove control system may include both the data acquisition glove 3 and the prosthetic glove 4, and the data acquisition glove 3 and the prosthetic glove 4 each include the first angle sensor 5 and the second angle sensor 6, and both the first angle sensor 5 and the second angle sensor 6 may be used to detect the bending angle of the finger joint.
As shown in fig. 4, 5 and 6, in practical application, the data acquisition glove 3 and the prosthetic glove 4 are provided with three joint angle sensors corresponding to the healthy fingers of each finger, that is, two second angle sensors 6 and one first angle sensor 5, and the first angle sensor 5 may be a two-dimensional joint angle sensor, which may detect metacarpophalangeal joint bending and swinging.
It should be noted that in the present invention, a highly integrated prosthetic finger 12 is provided on the wearable prosthetic glove to replace the finger function of the user where the finger is missing. It should be emphasized here that the prosthetic finger 12 is not limited to a single finger, but may be a single finger or a combination of two adjacent finger bones.

Embodiment one:
as can be seen in fig. 1, 2 and 4-11, a first embodiment of the present invention is: a wearable prosthetic glove control system, the wearable prosthetic glove control system comprising: data acquisition glove 3, prosthetic glove 4, flexion sensor 7, pull wire 8, driver 9, and controller 10.
Wherein the prosthetic glove 4 comprises a prosthetic finger 12 arranged at the position of the missing finger of the user, and the data acquisition glove 3 and the prosthetic glove 4 comprise a first angle sensor 5 for acquiring the bending angle of the tail end knuckle of the finger and a second angle sensor 6 for acquiring the bending angles of other knuckles of the finger; wherein, the first angle sensor 5 is a two-dimensional joint angle sensor, one first angle sensor 5 is provided, and two second angle sensors 6 are provided.
In actual operation, as shown in fig. 9, 10 and 11, including the prosthetic finger 12 and the healthy finger, all the fingers include a distal phalanx 121, a middle phalanx 122, a proximal phalanx 123 and a metacarpal bone 124, which are sequentially connected, and a radially magnetized magnetic ring 127 and a magnetic encoder 128 are integrated between two bones adjacent to each other. As shown in fig. 10, the distal phalanx 121 is integrated with a magnetic ring 127, which can simultaneously and synchronously rotate; the front end of the middle phalanx 122 is integrated with a magnetic encoder 128, and the two can synchronously rotate; the rotating shaft 126 passes through the middle phalangeal 122 and the magnetic ring 127, ensuring that the magnetic ring 127 rotates concentrically with the magnetic encoder 128. The magnetic encoder 128 can detect the rotation of the magnetic ring 127 and output a corresponding voltage signal for the controller 10 to acquire the joint angle information. In the same way, the joint detection design method between the middle phalanx 122 and the proximal phalanx 123, and the joint detection design method between the proximal phalanx 123 and the metacarpal bone 124 can be realized. In this way, the first angle sensor 5 and the second angle sensor 6 can detect the bending angles of the joints of the fingers (including the healthy finger and the artificial finger 12).
In addition, in the wearable prosthetic glove control system designed by the invention, the controller 10 is also arranged on an arm, the controller 10 is respectively connected with the first angle sensor 5, the second angle sensor 6, the bending sensor 7 and the driver 9, the bending sensor 7 is used for collecting the toe bending angle of toes, one end of the control stay wire 8 is connected with the prosthetic finger 12, and the other end of the stay wire 8 is connected with the driver 9, so that the controller 10 controls the driver 9 to drive the stay wire 8, and the prosthetic finger 12 is pulled to act.
Accordingly, as can be seen further from fig. 9, in this embodiment, the distal phalanx 121 is provided with a stay fixing point a/a, and the stay 8 connected to the point a sequentially passes through the through holes in the middle phalanx 122, the proximal phalanx 123, the cross shaft 125, and the metacarpal 124, and is connected to the rear end driver 9, and the driver 9 may be a device capable of generating displacement, such as a motor, a shape memory alloy, or the like. The pull wire 8 connected with the point A can be connected with a spring fixedly arranged on the middle phalanx 122, and when the driver 9 pulls the point a to move, the joint between the middle phalanx 122 and the far phalanx 121 can rotate, and the spring is stretched to generate elastic force. When the driver 9 moves in the opposite direction, the joint between the middle phalanx 122 and the distal phalanx 121 is restored by the elastic force, which can effectively save one driving unit. Accordingly, the movement of the two joints of the rest stay fixing point B/B and the stay fixing point C/C is basically identical to the movement. Wherein the C/C-connected pull wire 8 drives the metacarpal 124 and proximal phalangeal 123 to swing.
In the first embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, the user's health side hand 1 may wear the data acquisition glove 3, and connect the data sensing glove with the computer terminal, so that the user controls the user's health side hand 1 to complete a preset action gesture, that is, a usual action gesture in life, and uses the data acquisition glove 3 to acquire the bending angle data of each joint of the user's health side hand 1 when completing the preset action gesture, and send the bending angle data to the computer terminal for storage in the database.
Accordingly, a deep learning method is utilized, including, but not limited to, RNN algorithm, classifying actions on gestures and establishing a mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger, and writing the mapping relationship into the controller 10 of the prosthetic glove 4.
After the above steps are completed, the user can wear the customized prosthetic glove 4 and complete the usual actions in life, and the prosthetic glove 4 can effectively use the actual joint bending angle of each finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user, so as to generate a prosthetic motion control instruction according to the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the finger of the affected side hand 2 of the user and the joint bending angle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger by using the controller 10. The controller 10 sends a prosthesis motion control instruction to the driver 9, and the driver 9 drives the stay wire 8 to realize accurate closed-loop control on the prosthesis finger 12.
In addition, in some other cases, the user may need to achieve a healthy finger immobilization of the affected side hand 2, but only the movement of the prosthetic finger 12. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the above-mentioned bending sensor 7 is also placed on the healthy toe of the user to detect the toe bending angle of the healthy toe by using the bending sensor 7, and the above-mentioned toe bending angle data is transmitted to the controller 10 of the prosthetic glove 4 by using the data acquisition and transmission unit 11 provided at the ankle part (transmission manner is optionally wireless or wired).
After receiving the toe bending angle data of the toe, the controller 10 first needs to use a normalization algorithm to establish a mapping relationship between the toe bending angle of the toe and the joint bending angle of the distal knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger, and encapsulates the mapping relationship into the controller 10.
When the user wears the prosthetic glove 4, the user's healthy toe bends, the bending sensor 7 can collect the actual toe bending angle of the user's healthy toe, and send the actual toe bending angle to the controller 10 through the data collecting and sending unit 11, and the controller 10 can correspondingly generate a prosthetic motion control instruction according to the actual toe bending angle and the mapping relationship between the joint bending angle of the user's healthy toe and the joint bending angle of the end knuckle of the prosthetic finger 12 at the missing finger, and send the prosthetic motion control instruction to the driver 9, and the driver 9 drives the stay wire 8 to realize accurate closed loop control on the finger. The aim of controlling the movement of the prosthetic finger 12 on the toes is achieved through the above steps.
In summary, in the invention, the wearable prosthetic glove control method and system designed by the inventor can effectively utilize the wearable prosthetic glove to make up the function of missing fingers of a user, reduce the manual planning cost of the prosthetic hand, have high man-machine co-melting level, are convenient to use, and can effectively solve the problems of difficult extraction of electromyographic signals or electroencephalogram signals and large equipment of the existing active partial prosthetic hand.
In addition, in the invention, the inventor also utilizes the pull wire 8 to simulate tendons, thereby realizing the high-degree bionic of the prosthetic glove 4 and compensating the function of missing fingers; in addition, in some preferred embodiments, the invention also provides a brand new design for the prosthetic finger 12, and the angle sensing mode of the magnetic ring 127 and the magnetic encoder 128 is utilized to realize the bending angle sensing integration of the prosthetic finger 12, so that the prosthetic finger 12 can realize accurate closed-loop motion control.
