Design of Rehabilitation Walking Trainer for Hemiplegic Patients
Abstract
equipment. However, existing rehabilitation devices are often expensive and bulky, making it difficult to meet widespread rehabilitation needs.
This paper, based on the rehabilitation requirements of hemiplegic patients and the principles of gait simulation, proposes a novel design for
a rehabilitation walking training device. By optimizing space utilization, the design adopts a structural arrangement where the motor shaft is
placed perpendicular to the end output shaft, significantly reducing the space occupied by the equipment while maintaining full functionality.
The rehabilitation trainer can precisely simulate the gait trajectory of a healthy person, providing personalized rehabilitation training that helps
improve patient recovery outcomes. A virtual prototype of the device was created using SolidWorks, and kinematic and mechanical simulations were conducted in ANSYS to verify the designs rationale for key load-bearing components and the equipments performance advantages, ensuring its stability and efficiency in practical applications.
