Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 この発明は動力義足における足首作動機構に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to an ankle actuation mechanism in a powered prosthetic leg.
一般に、従来の義足は、足首を能動的に動かす構造物の
ものではなく、足首のまわ如を緩衝材で囲んで足部を若
干動くように支持した程度のものであった。したがって
、着地時の衝撃を和らげるという受動的機能しか果し得
す、足部は常時#1ぼ固定的に脛部に対して直角に位置
することになっていた。In general, conventional prosthetic legs are not structures that actively move the ankle, but only support the foot so that it can move slightly by surrounding the ankle with a cushioning material. Therefore, the foot was always positioned perpendicular to the shin at a fixed position #1, which could perform only a passive function of cushioning the impact upon landing.
このため、■平地歩行の際の遊脚(脚を地面から離して
前へ振シ出す動作)時つま先が地面に突っかかって転倒
する危険がある、■坂道を登るときや階段を下降すると
き非常に歩行しすらいといった問題があった。For this reason, ■ there is a risk of falling due to your toes hitting the ground when you swing your legs (moving your legs off the ground and swinging them forward) when walking on level ground; ■ there is a risk of falling when climbing a slope or descending stairs. There were problems such as difficulty in walking.
この発明は上記事情に鑑みてなされたもので、その目的
とするところは、歩行運動時の作用を積極的に利用して
能動的に足首を動作させるようにすることによシ、足首

記■、■の問題を解消する仁とにある。This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to actively move the ankle by actively utilizing the action during walking motion, thereby improving the ankle movement. It is possible to hold the toes in a dorsiflexed state with the toes raised, thereby solving the problems of (1) and (3) above.
以下、この発明の内容を図面を参照して説明する。Hereinafter, the content of this invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.
1 第7図はこの発明の一実施例を示すもので、この実
施例の義足は、膝関接にアクチュエータ(図示せず)を
設け、下肢を能動的に動作させるようにした動力義足で
あシ、所定の歩行運動をするように制御される。1 FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of the present invention. The prosthetic leg of this embodiment is a powered prosthetic leg that is equipped with an actuator (not shown) at the knee joint to actively move the lower limb. The robot is controlled to perform a predetermined walking motion.

部3は、ジュラルミン力どの軽金属で構成した骨の周囲
を発泡ウレタンなどで被つな構成である。In this prosthetic leg, the foot 2 is connected to the shin 3 by a pin 4 at the ankle 1, and the foot 2 is oriented in the dorsiflexion (toe-raising motion) and plantarflexion (ankle stretching motion) directions. It has a structure that allows it to rotate freely. The foot portion 2 and the shin portion 3 are constructed by covering bones made of light metal such as duralumin with urethane foam or the like.

20両油室を連絡する流路8およびとの流路に設けられ
たソレノイドパルプ9とから構成されている。In addition, a compression spring 5 is installed between a platinum 3B provided on the rear side of the lower end of the shin part 3 and a recess 2a formed at the upper part of the heel of the foot part 2. It is biased in the direction of dorsiflexion. Further, 6 is a locking mechanism for locking the leg portion 2 at an arbitrary rotational position. The locking mechanism 6 in this case includes a double-acting hydraulic cylinder 7 connected between the platinum 3a of the shin part 3 and the recess 2a of the foot part, a flow path 8 connecting the oil chambers of this cylinder 20, and The solenoid pulp 9 is provided in the flow path of the solenoid pulp 9.
したがって、との駿足は、ソレノイドパルプ9を開にし
て足部2を地面から離すと、常時第2図に示す背屈状態
となり、足部2が接地した際には接地姿勢に応じて自由
に足首1が曲がる。また、ソレノイドパルプ9を閉にす
れば、任意の位置で足首1をロックできる。Therefore, when the solenoid pulp 9 is opened and the foot 2 is released from the ground, the foot 2 is always in the dorsiflexed state shown in FIG. Ankle 1 is bent. Further, by closing the solenoid pulp 9, the ankle 1 can be locked at any position.
次に、華地歩行する場合の動作について第3図を参照し
て説明する。Next, the motion when walking on a flower-covered ground will be explained with reference to FIG. 3.
まず、ソレノイドパルプ9を間圧したまま、通常の歩行

シ出しをはじめる。このとき、足部2の先端が弾性変形
し、その弾性反力とともにけシ出し動作が行なわれる。First, while keeping the solenoid pulp 9 under pressure, start from the heel as shown in Figure (A), as in normal walking motion, and in this state, close the solenoid pulp 9 to lock the ankle l. Next, from that standing position, start lifting your legs as shown in ). At this time, the tip of the leg portion 2 is elastically deformed, and a pop-out operation is performed along with the elastic reaction force.

を繰如返しながら連続的な歩行を行なう。The solenoid pulp 9 is then opened at the stage when the multi-pearing process is completed and the foot part 2 is raised from the ground. Perform swing leg movements in that dorsiflexed state. This way, secondly, there is no risk of your toes hitting the ground. Then, the robot walks continuously while repeating the above actions.
なお、上記の歩行運動を行なう場合、ソレノイドパルプ
9の制御は、歩行を管理する制御装置の信号によ歩行な
う。In addition, when performing the above-mentioned walking movement, the solenoid pulp 9 is controlled by a signal from a control device that manages walking.

せることができる。In addition, in the above, since the movement of the ankle l during walking is related to the movement of oil between the cylinder 7 and the solenoid pulp 9 that constitute the lock mechanism 6, it is necessary to appropriately adjust the flow rate in the oil flow path. Yes, you can slow down the movement.
また、平地歩行以外に、坂道を登ったり、階段を下降し
たシする場合は、ソレノイドパルプ9を開にして足首1

する。As explained above, the present invention supports the foot so as to be dorsiflexible relative to the shin, and provides a spring between the foot and the shin to bias the foot in the direction of dorsiflexion. Since it is provided with a locking mechanism for locking the movement of the ankle, the ankle can be held in a dorsiflexed state as necessary. Therefore, it is possible to effectively prevent accidents such as falling due to toes hitting the ground when the legs are swinging when walking on level ground, and it is also possible to walk without straining when climbing up a slope or descending stairs. It has nine excellent effects.
