本发明涉及机器人外骨骼技术领域,尤其涉及一种踝关节外骨骼。The invention relates to the technical field of robot exoskeletons, in particular to an ankle joint exoskeleton.
背景技术Background technique
21世纪人口老龄化浪潮将席卷全球,给社会发展带来严峻挑战,截至2018年年我国60岁以上老年人口超2.5亿。老年人由于本身肌肉力量的衰退,行走能力出现不同程度的下降。而医用辅助设备有助于老年人在肌力衰退阶段不影响独立生活和完成日常生活基本任务的能力。The wave of population aging in the 21st century will sweep the world and bring severe challenges to social development. As of 2018, my country's population of people over 60 years old has exceeded 250 million. Due to the decline of their own muscle strength, the walking ability of the elderly declines to varying degrees. Medical assistive devices, on the other hand, help the elderly in the stage of muscle decline without affecting their ability to live independently and perform basic tasks of daily living.
无动力踝关节外骨骼作为一种轻便高效的医用辅助设备,不需要外部能量的输入,仅依靠人体本身重力和肢体运动做功就能实现对老年人的助力行走。相较于驱动型下肢外骨骼依靠复杂沉重的能源、驱动、传感与控制系统来实时适配人体变化步态,纯机械的自适应下肢外骨骼将会有更广阔的市场应用前景。As a lightweight and efficient medical auxiliary device, the unpowered ankle exoskeleton does not require external energy input, and can assist the elderly to walk only by relying on the human body's own gravity and limb movement to perform work. Compared with the driven lower extremity exoskeleton, which relies on complex and heavy energy, drive, sensing and control systems to adapt to the changing gait of the human body in real time, the purely mechanical adaptive lower extremity exoskeleton will have a broader market application prospect.
而目前对于处机械类的无动力踝关节外骨骼研究方面已有一些成果,例如;At present, there have been some achievements in the research of mechanical unpowered ankle exoskeletons, such as;
CN109940583A提出了一种能降低行走代谢的自适应踝足外骨骼,但其结构较为复杂,且适配性较低。CN109940583A proposes an adaptive ankle-foot exoskeleton that can reduce walking metabolism, but its structure is relatively complex and its adaptability is low.
CN109093596A发明了一种双模式被动踝助力外骨骼,其在一定程度上解决了穿戴者行走步态不自然的技术问题。但是由于本身的结构设计,对于踝关节的正常运动有很大影响。CN109093596A invented a dual-mode passive ankle-assisted exoskeleton, which solves the technical problem of the wearer's unnatural walking gait to a certain extent. However, due to its structural design, it has a great impact on the normal movement of the ankle joint.
CN207722054U提出一种新型的外骨骼踝关节装置,具有结构简单、可缓冲减震的效果,但由于本身考虑缓冲效果的设计和运用了过多的刚性结构会导致踝关节自由运动受限问题。CN207722054U proposes a new type of exoskeleton ankle joint device, which has the advantages of simple structure and buffering and shock absorption. However, due to the design considering the buffering effect and the use of excessive rigid structures, the free movement of the ankle joint will be limited.
可见,现有的无动力踝关节外骨骼尚存在结构相对较为复杂、设备相对较为笨重以及使用的舒适度还有待提高的问题。It can be seen that the existing unpowered ankle joint exoskeleton still has the problems that the structure is relatively complex, the equipment is relatively bulky, and the comfort of use needs to be improved.

进一步地,参照图6,在另一实施例中,所述第一传动部件包括复位棘轮4和联动棘爪6,所述联动棘爪6包括连接端62和凸起端61,所述联动棘爪6的连接端62与所述传动杆8连接,用以接收所述传动杆8的传动力,所述联动棘爪6的凸起端61与所述复位棘轮4的齿部在所述传动杆8的不同传动力下实现啮合和分离。Further, referring to FIG. 6 , in another embodiment, the first transmission component includes a
联动棘爪6是固定衔接在传动杆8的尾部,根据传动杆8的旋转而与复位棘轮4啮合分离。The
所述复位棘轮包括棘轮主体,所述复位组件包括背向所述棘轮主体的齿部设置的卷簧、空心盖体和设置在所述空心盖体上的突触f,所述棘轮主体与所述卷簧之间通过固定杆连接,所述卷簧的一侧与所述固定杆连接,所述卷簧的另一侧与所述空心盖体连接;所述突触f与所述第二连接件连接。需要说明的是,该空心盖体和棘轮主体是固定连接的。The reset ratchet includes a ratchet main body, the reset assembly includes a coil spring disposed away from the tooth portion of the ratchet main body, a hollow cover and a synapse f disposed on the hollow cover, and the ratchet main body is connected to the ratchet main body. The coil springs are connected by a fixing rod, one side of the coil spring is connected with the fixing rod, and the other side of the coil spring is connected with the hollow cover; the synapse f is connected with the second Connector connection. It should be noted that the hollow cover body and the ratchet body are fixedly connected.
复位棘轮4由一个棘轮主体串联一个内置卷簧c的空心圆柱体组成而穿过这两者的固定杆则是固定不动的,内置卷簧c一侧与空心盖体相连,另一侧与固定杆杆相连,复位棘轮4由棘轮支架5支撑。The
复位棘轮4的独特之处在于它是一个棘轮主体和内置卷簧c的结合体,使得复位棘轮4能够在作用后返回到正确的起始位置,等待下一次的激活。放置内置卷簧c的是空心盖体,该空心盖体为一个空心的圆柱体,其外侧有一个突触,作用是连接小腿后侧的动力部件,具体为连接动力部件的。内置卷簧c的作用是在下肢在摆动阶段时,紧绷连线但又不拉伸小腿后侧弹簧3的作用,若没有内置卷簧c则小腿后侧弹簧3会随着人体摆动而拉伸,这样就失去了复位棘轮和联动棘爪啮合分离的意义。The unique feature of the
具体地,单侧脚行走过程中的触地阶段(脚放平、站立、推出)复位棘轮和联动棘爪啮合,此时内置卷簧c不产生作用。在单侧腿摆动(未触地)阶段(脚趾离地、摆动、脚根着地)此时小腿后侧弹簧3也会因为腿的摆动而拉伸,内置卷簧c的作用就是预留出一部分距离来保证护套到棘轮的距离足够长而减少小腿后侧弹簧3不必要的拉长,在这个阶段小腿后侧弹簧3不需要拉伸储能的,因为会影响代谢能耗。连接棘轮的空心盖体有个突触f,突触f的初始位置是与鞋底反方向且水平的,突触f的最大位置就是在空心圆柱体的顶端,也就是在下肢腿的摆动阶段,护套到棘轮的最大距离。Specifically, the reset ratchet and the linkage pawl are engaged in the ground contact stage (foot flattening, standing, and pushing out) during unilateral foot walking, and the built-in coil spring c has no effect at this time. In the stage of unilateral leg swinging (not touching the ground) (toes off the ground, swinging, foot root landing) at this time, the
进一步地,参照图3和图4,在另一实施例中,所述第一传动组件还包括支架5,所述支架5连接所述第一传动部件和所述容纳盒7,用于将所述第一传动组件固定在所述容纳盒7上,所述支架5连接在所述复位棘轮4的固定杆的两端。所述支架5为倒“L”型结构,该倒“L”型结构的一端连接在所述复位棘轮4的固定杆的两端,该“L”型结构的另一端连接在容纳盒7的盖体上。Further, referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , in another embodiment, the first transmission assembly further includes a
此外,参照图5,所述第二传动部件包括套装在所述传动杆8一端的齿轮,所述受力部件包括架设在所述传动杆8上的连接杆和分别固定在所述连接杆两端的第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b,所述连接杆垂直于所述传动杆8的长度延伸方向;所述第二压力杆面向所述齿轮的一面开设有与所述齿轮配合的齿轮条。所述连接杆上方还安装有弹簧12,所述弹簧12的数量为3个,3个所述弹簧12并列且等间距的排列在所述连接杆上。此外,需要说明的是,3个弹簧的上端固定在鞋底1中,三个弹簧的下部固定在所述连接杆上。就是在第一压力杆和第二压力杆受地面力时,能够有一定缓冲进入容纳盒,在不受地面力的情况下,反推第一压力杆和第二压力杆,带动传动杆使复位棘轮4和联动棘爪6从啮合状态到分离。In addition, referring to FIG. 5 , the second transmission component includes a gear sleeved on one end of the
其中,所述第二传动部件的齿轮为不完全齿轮11。所述容纳盒7的盖体内侧还开设有用于容置连接杆上的3个弹簧12的弹簧12固定壳9。Wherein, the gear of the second transmission component is the
3个弹簧12是分别连接在与第一压力杆10a与第二压力杆10b相连的连接杆和固定在装置容纳盒7中,其作用除了在第一压力杆10a与第二压力杆10b作用下使传动杆8分离啮合联动棘爪6和复位棘轮4外,还具有在踝关节外骨骼悬空阶段防止联动棘爪6和复位棘轮4重新啮合的作用,保证装置能高效稳定的运行。The three springs 12 are respectively connected to the connecting rods connected with the first pressure rod 10a and the second pressure rod 10b and fixed in the
本发明提出的一种踝关节外骨骼,它由护套2、小腿后侧弹簧3、复位棘轮4、棘轮支架5、联动棘爪6、容纳盒7、传动杆8、3个相同的弹簧固定壳9、压力杆、不完全齿轮11、3个相同的弹簧12等组成。其中第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b的区别是第二压力杆10b、复位棘轮4有内置卷簧c、容纳盒7内侧前部有一个突触d;容纳盒7内侧顶部有一个固定通孔e。另因本装置内嵌在鞋底1,为示意需要添加了鞋底1。An ankle joint exoskeleton proposed by the present invention is fixed by a
整个装置除部分联动棘爪6、复位棘轮4、小腿后侧弹簧3以及护套2之外,剩余装置都收纳在容纳盒7当中。第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b放置的位置是在前脚掌的位置,并通过两者之间的连接杆与固定在容纳盒7的弹簧12相连。传动杆8根据压力杆受力和弹簧12的作用而上下移动,使得联动棘爪6有规律呈一定角度旋转而啮合或者分离复位棘轮4。Except for the
以下分析若无特别说明均为同侧脚,具体工作模式:The following analysis is all on the same side of the foot unless otherwise specified, and the specific working mode:
当外骨骼穿戴者脚落地时,第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b同时受力,被压入容纳盒7,第二压力杆10b的齿轮条带动不完全齿轮11,使得传动杆8呈一定角度旋转带动联动棘爪6与复位棘轮4相啮合,在脚趾离地之前拉伸小腿后侧弹簧3,从而储蓄能量。When the foot of the exoskeleton wearer lands, the first pressure rod 10a and the second pressure rod 10b are stressed at the same time and are pressed into the
当外骨骼穿戴者脚趾离地时,装置处于悬空状态。此时,由于第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b处于悬空状态不再受力,因此弹簧12会因为之前的受力压缩而反弹使得第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b向下运动,在第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b的齿轮条带动下,不完全齿轮11发生旋转,使得联动棘爪6与复位棘轮4分离,此刻储存在小腿后侧弹簧3的能量会释放,辅助外骨骼穿戴者的行走。When the exoskeleton wearer's toes are off the ground, the device is suspended. At this time, since the first pressure rod 10a and the second pressure rod 10b are in a suspended state and no longer receive force, the spring 12 will rebound due to the previous force and compression, causing the first pressure rod 10a and the second pressure rod 10b to move downward. , Driven by the gear racks of the first pressure rod 10a and the second pressure rod 10b, the
当外骨骼穿戴者脚趾离地之后,脚跟落地之前,装置处于悬空状态。这段时间复位棘轮4将发挥作用,由于本阶段初始能量的释放和后续下肢的摆动会导致装置在外力情况下任意摆动和在不必要的阶段存储能量,若没有复位棘轮4内置的卷簧在上述两种状况下的复位缓冲则会造成更多的能量损失,降低本发明的有效性。另外弹簧12在此阶段负责控制不完全齿轮11,间接悬空控制第一压力杆10a和第二压力杆10b,使传动杆8能不发生旋转而导致联动棘爪6和复位棘轮4的啮合分离。When the exoskeleton wearer's toes are off the ground, but before the heels hit the ground, the device is suspended. During this time, the reset ratchet 4 will play a role, because the release of the initial energy at this stage and the subsequent swing of the lower limb will cause the device to swing arbitrarily under external force and store energy in an unnecessary stage. The reset buffering in the above two situations will cause more energy loss and reduce the effectiveness of the present invention. In addition, the spring 12 is responsible for controlling the
