Abstract: An exoskeleton upper limb includes a frame and a connection interface movably mounted relative to the frame to perform a second rotation and a third rotation. The second rotation is actuated by a first kinematic chain of actuation including a first actuator. The third rotation is actuated by a second kinematic chain of actuation including a second actuator. The first kinematic chain includes a first connecting rod and/or the second kinematic chain includes a second connecting rod.

Abstract: A cable actuator (100) having a frame (10); a screw (2) rotatably mounted on the frame (10) and extending along a first axis (Ox); a nut (4) cooperating with the screw (2); a mechanism (30) for estimating the angular movement of the nut (4) about the first axis (Lx) relative to the frame (10); and a distance sensor (30) secured to the frame (10) and having a winder (33) for winding a thread (32), one end (32.1) of the thread (32) connected to the nut (4) at a connection point (4.1). The distance sensor (30) is arranged in such a manner that the thread (32) changes curvature at a first point (34) situated in a first plane (P1) orthogonal to the first axis (Ox).

Abstract: Spherical wheel that can be driven by a motor comprising a first body (1.1) and a second body (1.2) which are substantially hemispherical and are mounted coaxially to one another so as to pivot about a support axle (2), the bodies being separated by an interstice (3) into which there extends a shaft (6), said shaft having an end that is rigidly connected to the support axle and an opposite end that is connected to a drive motor, characterized in that at least one element (7, 17) extending at least one portion of the outer surface of the bodies extends into the interstice. Vehicle comprising a chassis that is supported by such wheels.
