Design and Isokinetic Training Control Method of Leg Press Training Device

Lower-limb function in elderly people gradually degenerates with age, and poor rehabilitation conditions preventing the elderly from receiving scientific rehabilitation training result in the decline of social labor force and the increased economic burden of the elderly. Aiming at the characteristics of the single function and the complex structure of an existing telescopic leg trainer combined with the needs of the application group, a new type of leg-stretching training device with multiple training modes for lower extremity extension and flexion of the elderly is proposed. A new mechanical structure and electrical system is designed. At the same time, the anti-resistance training man–machine model is analyzed, aiming at the isokinetic resistance training mode, and a training controller strategy based on a fuzzy synovial algorithm is proposed. Finally, the feasibility of the designed controller strategy and the proposed leg training device are verified by prototype experiments, which will guide further research.
