Development of Lower Limb Exoskeleton Actuatorless Mechanism to Support Standing Motion

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the development of a lower limb exoskeleton actuatorless mechanism to assist the standing motion of rehabilitation patients which we are developing. First, the standing movements were classified into three phases. Next, the development mechanism is explained, and the principle of support for the standing motion is described. Finally, the result of motion simulation using mechanism analysis software is described.
