Abstract :
Passive rehabilitation robots are the auxiliary equipment which used to help patients recovering from diseases. In this paper, we addressed a lower limb 4-degree of freedom (4-DOF) model, proposed a lower limb rehabilitation mechanism. Based on MATLAB/Simulink software, analyze the displacement, speed and acceleration of fulcrums are analyzed. Experiment results verified that the simulation results are reasonable, which offered important data information for realizing the intelligent control for rehabilitation.
