Motor Drive Design for Upper Limb Rehabilitation Equipment

Abstract

China’s aging population is increasingly serious, the number of patients with upper limb dyskinesia is increasing year by year, and upper limb rehabilitation has become an important link of elderly care service. With the progress of science and technology, the training theory of restoring upper limb function is gradually mature, and auxiliary training equipment is also born and developed. In order to develop a low-cost desktop light-weight rehabilitation training equipment, reduce the doctor workload, improve recovery efficiency and reduce the family economic burden, this paper designs a motor drive for upper limb movement rehabilitation equipment. And verify the performance of the motor drive through the simulation and experiment. The results show that the designed motor driver can control the permanent magnet synchronous motor stable operating in the required mode.
