Programmable range of motion system

A programmable range of motion system has a frame, a range of motion device, a controller, a computer and sensors. The frame has a seat to support a rehab patient. The range of motion device is attached to the frame. The actuator, servo or alternate mechanism selectively rotates the range of motion device through a range of motion for a rehab patient's limb. The controller controls the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism. The computer is connected electronically to the controller. The computer has a software, program or application including a plurality of programmable range of motion movements for exercising the limb. The sensor detects movements of the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism and records data back to the computer. The term actuator as used hereafter includes servo or alternate articulating mechanism.

The shell has a skirt providing a skin contact surface area against the skin of the patient, the aperture defining an aperture surface area, wherein the skin contact surface area is greater than the aperture surface area, and wherein the skirt is non-fixedly attached to the skin of the patient and slides laterally outwardly.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROL AND OPERATION OF MOTORIZED ORTHOTIC EXOSKELETON JOINTS
20230008704 · 2023-01-12 ·

System and method for providing both powered and free swing operation in a powered orthotic exoskeleton joint. The joint comprises a processor controllable ratchet wheel and pawl type clutch, configured to engage or disengage upon receiving force from a servo actuator. When the processor determines that the clutch should be engaged, it directs the powered actuator to couple the pawls to the ratchet wheel, allowing torque to be transferred from the joint's powered motor, through the clutch, to the gearing that subsequently controls the motion of the joint. Conversely, the processor can direct the powered actuator to decouple the pawls from the ratchet wheel. This in turn decouples the ratchet wheel from the motor, thus allowing the remainder of the joint and any associated joint gearing to engage in relatively free swing motion, without any interference from the motor.

Fall-resistant method of intelligent rollator, intelligent rollator and controller thereof

Disclosed is a fall-resistant control method for an intelligent rollator, an intelligent rollator and a controller. The intelligent rollator has a vehicle body, front wheels and/or rear wheels configured at the bottom of the vehicle body and driven by a motor. The fall-resistant control method includes: recording the current position of the motor as the initial position when the moving speed of the intelligent rollator exceeds a first threshold and the acceleration of the intelligent rollator exceeds a second threshold; determining a first braking torque according to the position change of the motor relative to the initial position, wherein the greater the position change, the greater the first braking torque; determining a second braking torque according to the moving speed and/or acceleration of the intelligent rollator, wherein the greater the moving speed and/or the acceleration, the greater the second braking torque; determining the fall-resistant braking torque according to the first braking torque and the second braking torque.
