TODAY'S PRACTICAL RESULTS

These devices are intended to influence the musculoskeletal (locomotor) system of a person (Photo 1, Photo 2). Each device is a skeleton with elements which fasten to the body and its extremities, in such modifications as the external, internal or combined with clothing. The external skeleton consists of the joints(exoskeleton's joints) that are aimed to repeat the behavior of internal, human’s joints, and located at the same level, but outside. Levers, exoskeleton's joints and elements of fastening are carried out independently(modularly) with further permanent assembling. All of them have at least one of statically and (or) dynamically programmed properties. So, exoskeleton's joint units are characterized by its mobility, freedom degrees, angular moving limitation abilities, etc. Levers - by its wide range and numerous means of the linear sizes fixing, configuration etc. Elements of fastening (belts, cuffs, glands, etc.) - by its elasticity, individuality, an arrangement and ways of fastening. Thus, the basic functionality and algorithms have been successfully realized by means only mechanical design.
