    Abstract: A lower-leg exoskeleton including an inflatable actuator that is configured to be worn over a front portion of a foot of a user; a rigid foot structure coupled to the inflatable actuator that is configured to surround a portion of a foot of the user; and a rigid shin structure coupled to the inflatable actuator and configured to engage the shin of the user. When worn by a user, the lower-leg exoskeleton can receive and transmit an actuator load generated by the inflatable actuator to a load contact point defined by the rigid foot structure which is forward of the heel of a user. Inflation of the inflatable actuator can generate a moment about the ankle of a user to cause flexion of the foot of the user.

    Abstract translation: 一种小腿外骨骼,包括被构造成穿在使用者的脚的前部的充气致动器; 耦合到所述可充气致动器的刚性足部结构,其被构造成围绕所述使用者的脚的一部分; 以及刚性胫骨结构,其联接到所述可膨胀致动器并且被构造成接合所述使用者的胫骨。 当用户佩戴时,小腿外骨骼可以将由充气致动器产生的致动器负载接收并传递到由用户脚跟前方的刚性足部结构限定的负载接触点。 充气致动器的充气可以在使用者的脚踝周围产生一个时刻,引起使用者的脚的弯曲。
