In Japan of the super aging society, various wearable robot for daily life assistance and rehabilitation care are developed. Those robots almost form an external skeleton along a frame of the human body, but the movement of the wearer is restricted to the flexibility of the rigid robot links in the structure. We developed a non-exoskeletal robot with a little feeling of restriction using skeletal system of the human body, but must support all the weight and the inertial forces of the robot in the human body. In this study, we devise a lightweight motor unit with flatness necessary for a non-exoskeletal robot and produced it experimentally.
