Development of Skeletal Muscle Model for Bridge-Style Movement Rehabilitation

Abstract

Currently, according to statistical data showed by world health organization, the aging problem has been becoming an extraordinary serious social challenge. China has become one of the countries with the largest elderly population and the fastest growth in the word. Compared with the traditional one-to one between therapist and patient, this paper proposed an intelligent bridge-style movement rehabilitation robot. The rehabilitation robot assisted patients to complete the bridge-style movement via auxiliary mechanism. Then, applying muscle parameters and skeletal muscle carried out the simulation analysis of the auxiliary mechanism. The results proved that the auxiliary mechanism performs well in the process of auxiliary bridge-style movement.
