摘要
In order to meet rehabilitation needs of patients with finger injury, a finger-supported exoskeletal robot was designed based on planar linkages. Firstly, a kinematics model of the robot was established by analyzing the degrees of freedom of bionic finger movements. Secondly, main mechanical components and rotation angles of finger joints were used as space vector elements to solve robot workspace. Based on these, optimum sizes of each mechanical structures were obtained, and structural optimization designs of mechanical components were completed. Simulation results show that the robot may carry out bending and stretching movements in a certain range of angles, and may meet rehabilitation training of patients with finger injury. © 2018, China Mechanical Engineering Magazine Office.
