The Further of Unpowered Exoskeleton Assist Robot in Rehabilitation |Biomedgrid

Exoskeleton assist robot is widely used in rehabilitation medicine, it has an irreplaceable function in patient disability functional recovery, and in studies too. Most exoskeleton robot are powered by electric, hydraulic or pneumatic, as a power source, meanwhile, the presence of high quality, high cost, inconvenient to use and other issues are also not easy to solve. At the same time, energy and battery life issues are also important factors affecting the development of exoskeleton-assisted robots [1] . However, unpowered exoskeleton assist robot needs no additional power, it does not need energy equipment or other unnatural external forces to drive, except the user's energy provided to storage and release [2] . Compared with the traditional powered exoskeleton, the unpowered exoskeleton robot has the advantages of smaller mass and no energy consumption and solves the long-term shortcomings of the powered exoskeleton assisted robot.
