摘要:
A positionable tool support device (200; 300; 500; 600; 610; 700; 710; 800) is mounted near a work surface for supporting a tool (21 1; 31 1; 321; 341; 406; 412; 452; 462; 492; 574; 605; 635; 705) for a user. The tool support device includes a surface mount to secure the tool support device to a support surface. A gravity-balancing articulated arm assembly (201; 305; 325; 414; 502; 602; 702; 802) is coupled to and extends from the surface mount. The gravity-balancing articulated arm assembly (201; 301; 325; 414; 502; 602; 702; 802) is selectively adjustable about both vertical and horizontal axes. A rigid support extension (202; 302; 324; 340; 413; 418; 459; 469; 501; 603; 633; 703; 713; 803) is coupled to the gravity-balancing articulated arm assembly for selective rotation relative to the gravity-balancing articulated arm assembly. A flexible tensile member (208; 258; 308; 315; 330; 400; 450; 460; 470; 604; 634; 704; 714; 814; 815; 832) is coupled to and extends, in a relaxed state, vertically downward from the rigid support extension. The tensile member is coupled to the tool.
摘要:
An exoskeleton trajectory sequence (228) is received with at least one server (232), and the sequence (236) is transferred to a first device (244) where the sequence (246) is validated. The validation includes a safety check in which a determination is made as to whether the sequence (246) is safe for use with an exoskeleton (100). The validated sequence (246), or a confirmation that the sequence (236) is valid, is received from the first device (244), and the validated sequence (248) is offered for sale, license or lease. In one embodiment, a request for the sequence (326) to be transferred is received from a first exoskeleton user (300). The sequence (334) is validated and transferred to a second exoskeleton user (302). In another embodiment, a request for the sequence (424) to be edited is received from an exoskeleton user (400). The sequence (438) is edited, validated and transferred to the exoskeleton user (400).
摘要:
A first exoskeleton is in communication with a central server (210) or a peripheral device (705, 706). The first exoskeleton collects first data and transmits the first data to the central server (210) or peripheral device (705, 706). The central server (210) or peripheral device (705, 706) generates second data using the first data and transmits the second data to the first exoskeleton or a second exoskeleton.

摘要:
An exoskeleton (105; 205; 305; 405; 505) configured to be coupled to a user (100; 200; 300; 400; 500) includes a plurality of interconnected support elements (141, 150; 340, 341, 342, 350; 420, 450, 420', 450'; 515, 520, 535) constituted by rigid compression members interconnected through a tensegrity joint (155; 255; 355; 430, 430'; 570). The joint includes a tensile member (165; 360, 361, 362; 440, 440'; 530, 531; 545, 546) having a first end and a second end coupled to first and second ones of the support elements (141, 150; 340, 341, 342, 350; 420, 450, 420', 450'; 515, 520, 535) respectively.
