Abstract:
A driving module may include a driving source configured to generate power, a gear train that includes a decelerating gear set configured to receive driving power from the driving source and a ring gear attached to one side of the gear train, and a rotary joint that includes at least one planetary gear configured to rotate in response to power received from an output end of the decelerating gear set and to revolve along the ring gear. The driving module may include one or more noise reducing members configured to mitigate noise produced based on interaction between one or more elements of the driving module. The driving module may be included in a motion assistance apparatus, where the driving module drives a module that supports a portion of a user body.
Abstract:
A driving module and a motion assistance apparatus including the same may be provided. For example, the driving module including a driving source disposed on one side of a user, and configured to provide power, a first decelerator including a first input terminal coupled to the driving source, and a first output terminal and a second output terminal configured to receive power from the first input terminal, a second decelerator including a second input terminal coupled to the first output terminal, and a third output terminal and a fourth output terminal configured to receive power from the second input terminal, and a third decelerator including a third input terminal coupled to the second output terminal, and a fifth output terminal and a sixth output terminal configured to receive power from the third input terminal may be provided.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A driving module may include: an object fix member configured to be fixed to an object; a first sub-module including a body portion, connected to a first side of the object fix member, and a first rotating member, connected rotatably to the body portion; a second sub-module including an extension link, connected to a second side of the object fix member, and a second rotating member, connected rotatably to the extension link; and/or a power transmitting member connected to the first rotating member and the second rotating member, and configured to transmit power.
Abstract:
A frame configured of a plurality of links pivotally connected to one another is flexibly bent, and pins that connect the plurality of links that constitute the frame are inserted into and slide in a curve-shaped slot and a slot in a vertical direction so that, even though the frame is bent, the entire length of the frame is increased and ends of the frame can be moved along a straight line that is horizontal with respect to the ground.
Abstract:
A heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger includes a target area that is a target for heat exchange; and a flow path structure. The flow path structure includes at least one inlet; at least one outlet; a first flow path connected to each of the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet, and extending along a first side of the target area; and a second flow path connected to each of the at least one inlet and the at least one outlet, and extending along a second side, different from the first side, of the target area.
Abstract:
A motion assistance apparatus includes a force transmitting frame configured to support a distal part of a user, a slider configured to slide in the force transmitting frame, and a driving frame connected to the slider and configured to slide with respect to a proximal part of the user.
Abstract:
A motion assistance apparatus including a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of a user, a first drive link and a second drive link configured to perform translational motions with respect to the proximal support at different velocities, a support link with both ends rotatably connected to the first drive link and the second drive link, respectively, the support link having a variable length, and a distal support connected to the support link, the distal support configured to support a distal part of the user is provided.
Abstract:
