Abstract: A wearable assistive device may perform a control operation to protect a drive system in a state in which it is supported on an adaptive assistive and/or rehabilitation device. The wearable assistive device may include an actuated hip joint providing a first assistive force depending on a height of the wearable assistive device and an actuated joint to generate a second assistive force. It may be possible to control the wearable assistive device in a way that prevents collisions or sudden impacts with the ground.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device having a posture controlled depending on different modes of an adaptive and/or rehabilitative device on which the exoskeleton is supported is disclosed herein. The exoskeleton may include a main controller to automatically control the posture depending on ‘a moving mode’, ‘a wearing mode’, and ‘a storage mode’ of the an adaptive and/or rehabilitative device. An operation mode may be determined depending on a height change or a movement of the adaptive and/or rehabilitative device, and an operation of a drive based on whether the exoskeleton contacts a ground may be controlled.

Abstract: An exoskeleton may include a pair of actuated limbs rotatably arranged at sides of a lumbar/back frame. A posture restoring assembly may connect the sides of the lumbar/back frame and an upper end of the actuated limbs and return the actuated limbs to an initial or resting position thereof via an elastic or restoring force.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device may include a main frame, a leg assembly that extends downward from an end of the main frame, and a foot assembly that is installed at an end of the leg assembly. The leg assembly may include a leg frame having an upper end connected to the main frame and a lower end connected to the foot assembly and a leg belt that is mounted on the leg frame. The leg belt may include a belt that secures to a leg of the user, and a frame in which the belt is stored in a retractable and withdrawable manner while moving in a zigzag pattern inside the frame.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device may have an improved waist supporting structure. The wearable assistive device may include a main frame configured to support a waist or a pelvis, a subframe installed on a front surface of the main frame to secure a waist, a leg assembly installed at the main frame and formed to extend downward along legs of the user to generate an assistive force that assists a power of the user, and a foot support installed at a lower end of the leg assembly to support a foot of the user.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device such as an exoskeleton may include a main frame that support a hip joint of a user. The main frame may have a predetermined curvature and structure that closely conforms to and remains in contact with a hip of the user at or near the hip joint so that the main frame may stably support both hip joints. While the user wears the exoskeleton and walks, bends, or lifts, the exoskeleton may stably and efficiently provide a force to assist a movement originating at the hip joint of the user, thereby aiding the user in stably walking, bending, or lifting.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device such as an exoskeleton may include a foot support capable of a free ankle movement. The foot support may include an ankle support having an accordion spring and may be connected to a rear surface of the foot support, thereby supporting an ankle so that a user can exercise a complex ankle movement.

Abstract: A wearable assistive device may include a main frame provided on a wrist or pelvis of a user, a leg assembly that is formed to be extended downward along a leg of the user at an end of the main frame, and a foot assembly that is installed at an end of the leg assembly to support a foot of the user. The leg assembly may include a leg frame connected to the main frame and the foot assembly, and a leg belt mounted on the leg frame. The leg belt may include a main support, a first support that is coupled to a side of the main support by a hinge joint, and a second support that is coupled to another side of the main support by a hinge joint.
