Fig. 2 is the main sectional view and top view of the utility model driver.
Fig. 3 is the partial enlarged drawing of the hoop of the utility model driver.
Fig. 4 is the utility model driver remedy finger application example schematic diagram.
Embodiment
In order to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and technical purpose, below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiment is to this reality It is described further with new.
With reference to Fig. 1-Fig. 3, one kind of the present utility model is wearable plus band pneumatically inflates bending flexible actuator, including Front end end cap 4, end caps 1, upside wave structure 3, bottom 7, hoop 2, rope 6, flexible pipe 5;
The front end end cap 4 and end caps 1 are located at the both ends of wave structure 3 respectively, and bottom 7 is located at wave structure 3 lower end;It is undulatory cavity body structure that front end end cap 4, end caps 1, wave structure 3, bottom 7 are formed internal together; The hoop 2 is semicircular structure, and hoop 2 is enclosed on the crest location of wave structure 3 and the outside of bottom 7;The installation of rope 6 is in place In the both ends of the lower end of bottom 7, and the length direction of rope 6 is consistent with the axial direction of wave structure 3;Flexible pipe 5 is installed on front end At end cap 4, it is connected with the internal cavity of wave structure 3, for being inflated to inside cavity.The front end end cap 4, end It is the elastomeric material that elastic deformation can occur to hold end cap 1, the material of wave structure 3.
Further, deep-slotted chip breaker 21 is provided with inside 2 upper ends of the hoop, deep-slotted chip breaker 21 is used for the ripple for blocking wave structure 3 Peak position, hoop 2 is avoided to depart from from the crest location of wave structure 3.
Further, 2 lower end both sides of the hoop are respectively equipped with locating slot 22, and rope 6 passes through locating slot 22, and locating slot 22 is used for The cord 6 of the lower end of bottom 7 is positioned.
Further, the crest of the wave structure 3 is at least 3, and the bending driving of single joint can be achieved.
Further, the rope 6 is non-extensible under tensile force, such as steel wire rope, steel wire rope, nylon rope.
Further, the lower end stationary curved sensor 8 of the hoop 2, for the bending in feedback driver BENDING PROCESS Angle value.
Further, the lower end of end caps 1 is fixed with pressure sensor 9, during being driven for feedback driver The size of end power output.
The front end end cap 4, end caps 1, the material of upside wave structure 3 are silicon rubber, rubber or composite; Preferably, the front end end cap 4, end caps 1, the material of upside wave structure 3 are silicon rubber, hardness shore A20- A40, advantage have certain elasticity, extensibility and bearing capacity.
The front end end cap 4, end caps 1, the one cast of upside wave structure 3 are formed, then integrally poured with bottom 7 Note, forms final cavity body structure, favorable sealing property.
The hoop 2 is bonded with bottom 7, rope 6 with binding agent.
With reference to Fig. 4, during work, pass through the gas that flexible pipe 5 adds certain pressure to driver cavity, ripple on the upside of driver The stretcher strain of shape structure 3 is big, and the lower side of bottom 7 does not produce elongation, then upside deformation is big, downside deformation due to there is the constraint of rope 6 Small, driver integrally produces flexural deformation, while bend sensor 8 exports angle of bend angle value, and it is defeated that pressure sensor 9 exports end The value of output;The utility model is applied in wearable hand power-assisted convalescence device, the hand power-assisted convalescence device is main Pneumatically inflate bending flexible actuator and gloves for game by wearable plus band and some reinforcing members form that (such as 10 be foam Adhesive tape), drive device is that the utility model is wearable plus band pneumatically inflates bending flexible actuator, and inflating pressure band is started Finger does bending motion, and by experiment test when input pressure is 200Kpa, driver can be such that finger bends completely, now drive In 2.5~3N, driver can be adjusted and inputted during rehabilitation dynamic device end power output according to the data of sensor feedback Pressure so that finger gymnastic process is more effective, safe and steady.Due to flexible actuator described in the utility model have it is good Good compliance, it can effectively avoid producing finger overbending joint secondary damage so as to caused by due to exerting a force improper.
Although the utility model is disclosed above with preferred embodiment, so it is not limited to the utility model.This reality With new those of ordinary skill in the art, do not departing from spirit and scope of the present utility model, it is each when that can make The change and retouching of kind.Therefore, the scope of protection of the utility model is worked as and is defined depending on those as defined in claim.
