Research on Lower Extremity Exoskeleton System Based on Elastic Energy Storage Components

Abstract

In this paper, we study the field of rehabilitation walker technology. The passive energy storage gravity support exoskeleton is suitable for patients with lower limb dysfunction or limited function caused by lower limb joint, muscle tissue damage or bone disease. The equipment studied in this paper can assist patients to carry out normal ground walking and up and down stairs, realize patient self-care, slow down the patient’s physiological pain, and reduce the economic and energy burden of the patient’s family members. As the proportion of the elderly population continues to rise, the physiological decline during the aging process makes the elderly’s limbs less flexible, with limb motor dysfunction and lower limb motor dysfunction. Manual laborers have long been engaged in labor with repetitive and long working hours. It is easy to cause occupational chronic musculoskeletal injuries or other occupational diseases by maintaining the same or improper working posture for a long time.
