Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及足部助力装置技术领域,特别是涉及一种足部助力外骨骼装置。The present invention relates to the technical field of foot assist devices, in particular to a foot assist exoskeleton device.
背景技术Background technique
千里之行,始于足下,人类工作生活都离不开足部运动。人类平均每天行进约10000步,通过足部助力外骨骼装置减轻步行运动耗能对提升人体运动能力具有重要意义。目前的足部外骨骼系统按有无电源分为动力外骨骼与被动外骨骼,动力外骨骼大多繁重复杂,包含驱动电源极大的增加了系统的重量和成本,进一步限制了应用的条件,在人机协调性等共性问题上也依然存在问题。被动外骨骼结构相对简单,实用性更好,制作成本较低。A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and human work and life are inseparable from foot movement. Humans walk about 10,000 steps per day on average. Reducing the energy consumption of walking through foot-assisted exoskeleton devices is of great significance to improve human exercise capacity. The current foot exoskeleton systems are divided into powered exoskeletons and passive exoskeletons according to whether there is a power supply or not. Most of the powered exoskeletons are heavy and complex, and the inclusion of driving power greatly increases the weight and cost of the system, further limiting the application conditions. There are still problems in common issues such as human-machine coordination. The passive exoskeleton has a relatively simple structure, better practicability and lower production cost.
人体步行时,主要能量消耗一部分在脚后跟与地面的碰撞,另一部分在小腿后肌、跟腱等肌肉组织。如何储存步行时脚后跟与地面的碰撞能量,并释放这部分能量减轻腿部肌肉的耗能是被动助力装置设计的关键。简单的在鞋底设置弹性元件获得的能量回馈有限,并不能起到很好的省力效果。When the human body walks, part of the main energy consumption is in the collision between the heel and the ground, and the other part is in the hamstrings, Achilles tendon and other muscle tissues. How to store the collision energy between the heel and the ground when walking, and release this part of the energy to reduce the energy consumption of the leg muscles is the key to the design of the passive assist device. Simply arranging elastic elements on the sole can obtain limited energy feedback and cannot achieve a good labor-saving effect.
现有的被动足部外骨骼助力系统大多基于踝关节角度变化控制助力的释放,在小腿后肌将要出力时释放能量为踝关节提供力矩,缓解步行时关键肌肉的疲劳。但助力释放过早,人体需提供额外的力平衡装置提供的助力,步行更加费力;助力释放过晚,起不到最好省力效果,目前尚未找到最佳的能量释放时间点。此外,踝关节角度变化复杂且监测困难,增加了这类装备的复杂程度。Most of the existing passive foot exoskeleton assist systems control the release of assist based on changes in the angle of the ankle joint. When the hamstrings of the calf are about to exert force, the energy is released to provide torque to the ankle joint and relieve the fatigue of key muscles during walking. However, if the power is released too early, the human body needs to provide the assistance provided by an additional force balance device, which makes walking more laborious. In addition, complex ankle angle changes and difficult monitoring add to the complexity of this type of equipment.
