Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 機械工程系機電整合碩士班 === 107 === The stroke could cause some of patients to suffer from sequel of Hemi-paresis which could seriously affect the patient's daily living, walking especially. In order to mitigate the negative effect of sequel, therefore, the rehabilitation scheduling is very important to the stroke patients. This thesis presents a novel mechanism design of a wearable rehabilitation device for walking. It could not only allow the patients rehabilitate at home, but also reduce the required caring manpower. The mechanism design of this assistive device adopts a six-link-seven-joint six-bar linkage which dimensions are synthesized according to the knee joint and ankle joint trajectories of the human’s lower extremities during walking. This mechanism design has modeled via SolidWorks software, and the interference checking, kinematic simulation and stress analysis have also performed to conform to the human’s lower limbs motion conditions. A reduced scale model of walking rehabilitation device with control design of motor has done. This model is used to perform the operation test. The preliminary result has confirmed its feasibility. Through this rehabilitation device design, it would expect to allow the patients rehabilitate at home and reduce the manpower in taking care of patients.
