Technical Field

The invention relates to an exoskeleton, in particular to a wrist exoskeleton for a rehabilitation robot, and belongs to the field of rehabilitation robots.

Background

The apoplexy patient loses the self-care ability of life because of losing the motor function, the severe patient is completely paralyzed, and the probability of hemiplegia after the apoplexy is more than fifty percent. The wrist is used as an upper limb joint which is used relatively frequently in daily life, so that rehabilitation training of the wrist becomes a content which the stroke patient needs to recover urgently. The rehabilitation training usually adopts a method that a medical staff or a family member of a patient performs artificial rehabilitation training, and the patient is assisted to perform long-time rehabilitation motions such as wrist joint flexion and extension, adduction and abduction, and the like to promote the recovery of a nervous system. However, the artificial auxiliary rehabilitation training has the defects of large manpower consumption, low efficiency, high cost and the like. The rehabilitation robot drives the patient to perform rehabilitation training, so that manpower and cost are saved, and the rehabilitation robot is a mode for making up for the deficiency of manual rehabilitation training.

There are three main types of wrist movements: flexion/extension, adduction/abduction, and internal/external rotation movements. In the rehabilitation training process of the stroke patient, the three motion forms of the wrist are trained, so that the passage of the related nerve of the wrist of the patient can be effectively activated.

Studies have shown that in wrist motion, the wrist is far from the trunk, there are more degrees of freedom, and flexion/extension and adduction/abduction are telecentric motions. How to fully simulate the natural motion of the wrist with three degrees of freedom by using a lightweight structure and improve the rehabilitation effect becomes a research subject at the present stage.

At present, some wrist rehabilitation mechanical driving devices in China have been developed, and the driving devices generally only realize the bending and stretching freedom degree and lack the internal rotation and external rotation freedom degree and the internal and external contraction freedom degree; or the realization mode is that each degree of freedom is respectively provided with one set of driving system, which can cause the wrist mechanism to be overstaffed and heavy, the comfort is poor, the movement of the wrist joint is unnatural, and the rehabilitation treatment effect is not satisfactory.

Most of existing wrist function rehabilitation devices do not have a sensing function, so that a sensor needs to be integrated into a robot for evaluating the rehabilitation condition of a patient conveniently, and angle moment information of the wrist joint of the patient is collected in real time in the rehabilitation training process to be referred by doctors and the patient. At present, most of the existing wrist function rehabilitation devices can only be suitable for one-side wrist rehabilitation and cannot be applied to the opposite side, and two sets of left and right rehabilitation devices are required to be equipped for a rehabilitation center during application.

In conclusion, the existing wrist rehabilitation robot has the defects of lack of freedom degree, bulkiness, poor comfort, unnatural joint movement, unsatisfactory rehabilitation effect and no sensing function or mirror image interchange function.

The wrist power exoskeleton adopts a transmission mode based on a Bowden cable to transmit the torque output by the transmission driving mechanism to the exoskeleton driving joint; the transmission mode mainly has the following characteristics: firstly, the power can be transmitted in a long distance, and the motor is remotely separated from the exoskeleton so as to reduce the burden of the robot on the wrist; and secondly, the patient is allowed to freely move the posture of the wrist when wearing the exoskeleton robot to perform rehabilitation training, and certain tasks and daily life actions can be conveniently completed during training.
