Description

Shoulder wearable functional auxiliary mechanical arm
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of cooperative wearable mechanical arms, in particular to a shoulder wearable functional auxiliary mechanical arm controlled by three control modes, namely a data foot sleeve, an intelligent handle and a brain-computer interface, which is used for assisting people in daily work or life.
Background
The development of robotics in recent years has made it no longer a dream to add extra limbs to the human body to achieve a "three-head six-arm" design. Through increasing wearable imitative people arm limbs, can effectively expand people's task executive function, strengthen people's production efficiency and skill level, make it independently reply complicated environmental change or production task under the condition that does not rely on many people to assist to the situation of "two fists are not enemy four hands" has been solved. Therefore, the wearable humanoid mechanical arm limb enables the robot to be cooperated with a person more closely, and the development of the wearable robot has more practical application prospect under the conditions that the robot cannot well understand the intention of the person, efficiently faces complex environments and diversifies the needs of users.
Generally, when a person cannot independently complete a certain activity, the related work tools need to be assisted or added by others or tasks need to be refined and decomposed, and the task is realized item by item. Although these methods can successfully achieve the predetermined activity index, the labor cost, time, effort, etc. are inevitably increased. On the other hand, as people demand more and more diversified, facing tasks and environments tend to be complex, personal skills and traditional equipment are inevitably subjected to different types of challenges, and the flexibility of the robot technology and intelligent decision making of people enable the robot to share part of the challenges, so that the stress on the people is relieved. Different from the traditional exoskeleton power-assisted robot, the wearable power-assisted mechanical arm not only can assist but also can independently complete operation, and also can be used for people and collaboratively completing more complex tasks, so that the wearable power-assisted mechanical arm has important practical value for improving the skills and the operation efficiency of people, and is more significant in the field of health care, for people with arm movement functions, such as patients suffering from stroke and muscular atrophy, a substitute is needed to help the people to complete certain daily required hand motions, so that the people can complete certain necessary motions in daily life without the help of people, such as water pouring, door opening, even shaving, tooth brushing, cooking, shopping and the like. Therefore, the privacy of the users can be better protected, and the self-care ability of the users can be improved. For some people with physical disabilities, mainly arm parts, there is a need for alternatives to compensate for the physical disabilities of this part, so that their quality of life and their ability to stand alone can be improved. The existing method for installing the artificial limb increases the cost because the artificial limb needs to be customized for different people, and the large-scale production is not possible in technical realization. Thus, additional wearable robotic arms may be substituted.

The three different control modes of the present embodiment are described in further detail below with reference to specific examples.
Data podotheca control mode:
as shown in fig. 8, the user will wear the data sock 8-1, which includes the bending sensor 8-2 on the toe end, and will control the mechanical arm to move upward when the user's toe bends upward and downward when the user's toe bends downward. Fig. 9 shows a piezoelectric sheet at the bottom of a data foot sleeve, which is used for detecting the pressure distribution at different parts of two feet and controlling the corresponding mechanical arms to move in the 6 directions of up, down, left, right, front and back.

FAB=FA-FB
FAC=FA-FC
FAD=FA-FD
wherein FAIs the sum of the forces applied to all pressure sensors in area A, FB、FC、FDThe same process is carried out; fABIs the pressure difference between the A, B regions, FAC、FADThe same is true.

The motion direction is sent to the speed controller through the collected motion direction control signal, and the mechanical arm moves in the direction according to forward kinematics and the tail end speed preset by a user. Meanwhile, the repentance is automatically recovered to the initial position of the handle after the direction is selected, so that the safety and the reliability are improved.
Brain-computer interface control mode:
the available method for recognizing the movement intention comprises extraction and classification based on electroencephalogram characteristics such as steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP). The control on the mechanical arm motion direction is carried out through P300 or SSVEP brain electrical characteristics. The arrows (frequency: 15Hz, 12Hz, 10Hz, 8.57Hz, 7.5Hz, 6.67Hz) representing the directions of the forward, backward, leftward, rightward, upward and downward movements of the robot arm and the ON and OFF icons (frequency: 60Hz, 30Hz) representing the switches of the mechanical pincer will blink at different frequencies ON the user interface. For example, when the user stares at an arrow representing forward, the system will recognize the direction of the mechanical arm movement as forward and move the mechanical arm in the forward direction at a speed preset by the user. The back, left, right, up and down directions are the same as the switch of the mechanical pliers.
The present invention can be preferably realized as described above.
The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments, and any other modifications that do not depart from the spirit and principle of the present invention and are intended to be equivalent thereto are included within the scope of the present invention.
