Abstract: A modular passive-to-active exoskeleton system utilizes motor unit modules, an electromagnetic-clutch power transmission system, and biometric control. The passive exoskeleton has a stamina-increasing “chairless chair” function and optional use of magnetic ball-and-socket joints and knee torsion springs. To convert the exoskeleton system into an active robotic wearable device, modular attachments allow for motor units to be securely connected to the exoskeletal frame. An exoskeleton system may contain a knee motor unit that has a transmission system with an electromagnetic clutch that enables a passive mode, active mode, and/or hybrid mode. The motor units are controlled using wireless biometric motion sensors that measure limb joint angle and muscle activity. These motor units also communicate via wireless transmission with a central processing unit of the exoskeleton. This central processing unit serves as a gateway for user feedback from an Internet-of-Things (IoT) device, such as a smartphone, tablet, computer, etc.

Abstract: A massage device for a person's appendage includes a plurality of enclosures each including an outer surface and a hollow interior space having a control circuit, a power source such as a rechargeable battery, a vibration mechanism, and preferably at least one motor and a gear arrangement. Each enclosure includes at least one roller driven by the gear arrangement and the at least one motor. A plurality of connectors are each fixed between two adjacent enclosures to form a ring with the enclosures and the connectors. The connectors are adapted to contract or expand such that with the person's appendage fitted through the ring, the connectors are retracted until the rollers each contact the person's appendage to move the device along or about the person's appendage while the vibration mechanism massages the person's appendage.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a drive mechanism and a massage device, and relates to the technical field of daily necessities. The drive mechanism includes a drive member, an active component and a support member; the active component is sleeved on the support member, and an inner wall of the active component resists to an outer wall of the support member; the drive member is in transmission connection with the active component, so as to drive the active component to make a straight reciprocating movement along an axis direction of the support member; and an outer diameter of the active component is increased or reduced along the movement of the active component. The technical problem that the massage device cannot achieve the simulated effect is solved in the present disclosure.
