Distributed Pneumatic Physiotherapy Robot for Human Acupoints

摘要

With the growth of age, the body function of the elderly continues to decline, so they often suffer from various diseases, and long-term medication brings many additional diseases. In the context of the development of artificial intelligence, there is a lack of a robot with both portability and therapeutic functions to solve the problems of home care and long-term medication for the elderly. Considering that TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) physiotherapy belongs to physical therapy, it has a good treatment and prevention effect on the diseases of the elderly, without the side effects of drug therapy. Based on the principle of TCM physiotherapy, a pneumatic wearable physiotherapy robot is designed in this paper, so that the elderly can complete the physiotherapy process at home. In this paper, the structure composition and function of the robot are designed, and the experiment is carried out. Therefore, the physiotherapy robot proposed in this paper has good portability when completing physical therapy operations.
