A mat transmission structure includes a first body, multiple first operation units, and a power unit. The first body is provided with a first recess and multiple first pivot portions. Each of the first operation units is pivotally mounted on each of the first pivot portions. Each of the first operation units includes a rod, multiple first operation members, and a first driving member. The rod is provided with a first fitting portion, two first pivoting sections, and a first mounting portion. Each of the first operation members is provided with a first surface and a second fitting portion. The first driving member is mounted on the first mounting portion. The power unit drives the first driving member of each of the first operation units such that each of the first operation units is rotated in the first recess.

A motion assistance apparatus includes a force transmitting frame configured to support a distal part of a user, a slider configured to slide in the force transmitting frame, and a driving frame connected to the slider and configured to slide with respect to a proximal part of the user.

A walking assistant robot, comprising a main frame body (1), a foot walking mechanism for alternating walking, an auxiliary device (2) and a control device; the walking mechanism, the auxiliary device (2) and the control device are all disposed on the main frame body (1); the control device is connected with the walking mechanism; the auxiliary device (2) includes auxiliary feet (201), and the auxiliary feet (201) are disposed in front of and/or behind the walking mechanism along the walking direction. The foot walking mechanism is used to realize the basic function of the robot walking forward; auxiliary feet (201) are disposed in the walking direction such that the walking mechanism still has, at the moment of foot alternation, multiple supporting points in contact with the ground. Therefore, the mechanism is slip-and-fall-resistant, stable and reliable and guarantees the user safety.

A one-sided exoskeleton for placement in the center of a body of a person. The exoskeleton has a medial hip joint that includes hip plates and hip pulleys, a plurality of actuation cables, orthoses suitable for a right and a left lower limb of a person. Each of the orthoses comprising an ankle joint having a replaceable stirrup with a shoe or a shoe insert, a stirrup coupling, an ankle joint body and a guide pulley. Each of the hip pulleys is coupled to a respective ankle joint by at least one actuation cable of the plurality of actuation cables so that each actuation cable is on one end attached to one of the hip pulleys and on a second end attached to the stirrup coupling of the respective ankle joint. Each of the actuation cables is configured to convey a movement of the hip pulley to the respective ankle joint and cause a pivot of the respective replaceable stirrup in a first direction.

A walking assist device has a frame, a pair of right and left arm portions, a pair of right and left grasp portions, wheels including a pair of right and left drive wheels, drive units, a battery, a drive control unit, acting force measurement units that measure acting forces on the grasp portions, and holding units that hold the grasp portions at a predetermined position in the front-rear direction of the arm portions set in advance. The walking assist device travels forward together with a user. The holding units generate a restoring force for returning the grasp portions to the predetermined position. The drive control unit controls the drive units on the basis of acting forces calculated on the basis of detection signals from the acting force measurement units.

A motion assistance apparatus includes a waist frame configured to support a waist of a user, and a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of the user. A pressure applied to a thigh of the user by the proximal support in a sitting state in which the user is sitting may be greater than a pressure applied to the thigh of the user by the proximal support in a standing state in which the user is standing upright.

In various embodiments, provided herein are systems, methods, processes, and devices for providing locomotive rehabilitation to a subject via one or more gait motions that substantially accurately mimic motions performed in healthy, natural gait cycles. The system may mimic natural gait motions via footplates and handles, and one or more linkage systems. In particular embodiments, the system may further include a motor unit and/or clutch for providing controlled forces assisting or resisting motions of a linkage system. Further, the system may include a tower for operating in a standing or seated position. In at least one embodiment, the system includes a body weight support system that provides offloading forces to a subject.

A motion-assist shoe having a force translator with a dynamic portion comprised of a resiliently deformable material and configured to bias a rearward portion of a sole portion of the shoe upward relative to a forward portion of the sole portion.

A powered exoskeleton is designed to provide assistance to a user, where the powered exoskeleton may have power-generating elements in one location and power-applying elements in another location, so that a user can easily wear the powered exoskeleton.

An exoskeleton device for rehabilitation of distal joints of an upper limb of a patient is described. The exoskeleton device includes a multi-bar linkage and a first platform to support fingers of the patient. The exoskeleton device includes a second platform to support a palm of the patient. The first platform and the second platform are coupled to the multi-bar linkage. The exoskeleton device also includes a transmission unit to drive the multi-bar linkage to move the first platform and the second platform to provide flexion and extension of the distal joints of the upper limb of the patient. In addition, the exoskeleton device includes an armrest and a fastening mechanism to fasten a forearm of the patient.
