- 2. INTRODUCTION •One of the proposed main uses for an exoskeleton would be to active upper limb support systems. • An exoskeleton is the external skeletal structure that supports or protects the body, in contrast to the internal skeleton (endoskeleton) of a human. •The Exoskeleton is a robotic arm that helps muscle movement. Provides an innovative approach to physical therapy in cases of injury and muscle disorders and diseases. • Primary users for this design will be people with arm injuries, Myopathy, and Cerebral Palsy. People in need of the device suffer from muscle weakness or loss of movement in a group of muscles. • People who could also benefit from the device might also have abnormal movement, tremors or loss of coordination in their upper limbs.
- 3. •The type of myopathy that the device is intended to provide help for is muscular dystrophies. Patients with this type of myopathy have progressive weakness involuntary muscles. •Our design will satisfy the needs for physical therapy and bracing support for treating this disease. The device will need to be lightweight, so that the user is not hindered by the presence of the device •The device should be able to help people with muscular problems perform daily routine activities •The device should help health professionals monitor and record the patient’s progress. The device needs to be modular and resizable so that multiple people can use the same device.
- 4. OBJECTIVE • The main objective is to reduce human effort while lifting the weight. • Other than that, this mechanism in a robot, enables disabled people to select this mechanism. • Also, this mechanism can be used in automobile industries. Where, movement of large size body, which is manual in our project.
- 5. AIM OF THE PROJECT • Provides an innovative approach to active upper limb support systems. • Provides an innovative approach to physical therapy in cases of injury and muscle disorders and diseases. • Primary users for this design will be people with arm injuries, Myopathy, and Cerebral Palsy. • People in need of the device suffer from muscle weakness or loss of movement in a group of muscles. • People who could also benefit from the device might also have abnormal movement, tremors or loss of coordination in their upper limbs. • The type of myopathy that the device is intended to provide help for is muscular dystrophies.

- 9. EXO SKELETON ARM WORKING • Rehabilitation robots have become important tools in stroke rehabilitation. • Compared to manual arm training, robot-supported training can be more intensive, of longer duration and more repetitive. • The Exoskeleton is a robotic arm that assists muscle movement. • It is an outer framework that can be worn on a biological arm It is uses a Non-invasive method to acquire muscles to control the framework, that can be worn on a biological arm. • it is Powered by a high torque servo motor. It Can provide assistance or increase the strength of the biological arm, depending on the torque of the servo motor.
- 10. MATERIAL SELECTION • The proper selection of material for the different part of a machine is the main objective in the fabrication of machine. For a design engineer it is must that he be familiar with the effect, which the manufacturing process and heat treatment have on the properties of materials. The Choice of material for engineering purposes depends upon the following factors: • 1. Availability of the materials. • 2. Suitability of materials for the working condition in service. • 3. The cost of materials. • 4. Physical and chemical properties of material. • 5. Mechanical properties of material.
- 11. PARTS • 1. ELECTRIC LINIEAR ACTUATOR MOTOR-This simple electrical actuator system will ensure consistent operation in both directions. It will also give you added features such as end of stroke limit switches, mid stroke protection and manual override operation in case of power failure. • 2. HAND CAGE-It is a mild steel structure inside which human hand will go and will support the mounting of linear actuator and all mechanism for project. The material used will be mild steel C-45 because of it good properties like weld ability, cutting ability, machine ability, easily available in all section and cheapest in all other metals • 3. SWITCH- The Forward & Reverse Switch is an equally important and convenient device in the direction selector that controls the forward and reverse motion of Electric equipment.
