ENERGY HARVESTING DEVICE OF EXOSKELETAL REHABILITATION ORTHOSIS FOR THE LOWER LIMB

摘要

PURPOSE: An energy collection apparatus of exoskeletal rehabilitation orthosis is provided to collect mechanism vibration and to produce electric power without a separate power supply. CONSTITUTION: An energy collection apparatus of exoskeletal rehabilitation orthosis comprises collection units, a transfer unit(200), and a power generator(300). The collection units absorb pressure generated by stepping on the bottom during walking for rehabilitation treatment. The transfer unit converts the pressure into a tensile force and transfers the tensile force. The power generator receives the tensile force and generates electric power.
