Design of a quasi-passive 3 DOFs ankle-foot wearable rehabilitation orthosis.
Muscular rigidity and atrophy caused by long-term underactivity usually lead to foot drop, strephenopodia, foot extorsion or some other complications for the lower limb movement disorders or lower limb surgery sufferers. The ankle-foot orthosis can help patients conduct the right ankle motion mode training, inhibit spasm and prevent ankle complications. In this paper, a quasi-passive 3 DOFs ank...
متن کاملDesign and functional evaluation of a quasi-passive compliant stance control knee-ankle-foot orthosis.
In this paper, we present the mechanical design, control algorithm, and functional evaluation of a quasi-passive compliant stance control knee-ankle-foot orthosis. The orthosis implements a spring in parallel with the knee joint during the stance phase of the gait and allows free rotation during the swing phase. The design is inspired by the moment-angle analysis of the knee joint revealing tha...
متن کاملA Portable Ankle-Foot Rehabilitation Orthosis Powered by Electric Motor
Powered ankle-foot orthosis can not only prevent foot-drop and assist patients’ walking but also improve the ankle joint movement for patients with dysfunction caused by the various injuries and nervous system diseases. Common ankle rehabilitation devices limit the ankle injury patients’ rehabilitation training within fixed places, so a portable powered ankle-foot orthosis is presented in this ...
متن کاملA portable powered ankle-foot orthosis for rehabilitation.
Innovative technological advancements in the field of orthotics, such as portable powered orthotic systems, could create new treatment modalities to improve the functional out come of rehabilitation. In this article, we present a novel portable powered ankle-foot orthosis (PPAFO) to provide untethered assistance during gait. The PPAFO provides both plantar flexor and dorsiflexor torque assistan...
متن کاملDesign and control of a bio-inspired soft wearable robotic device for ankle-foot rehabilitation.
We describe the design and control of a wearable robotic device powered by pneumatic artificial muscle actuators for use in ankle-foot rehabilitation. The design is inspired by the biological musculoskeletal system of the human foot and lower leg, mimicking the morphology and the functionality of the biological muscle-tendon-ligament structure. A key feature of the device is its soft structure ...
