1A1-O08 A hand exoskeleton robot for rehabilitation using a three-layered sliding spring mechanism(Rehabilitation Robotics and Mechatronics(1))

In this study, a hand exoskeleton robot for rehabilitation using a three-layered sliding spring mechanism is presented. The advantage of the proposed mechanism compared to previously presented studies, is compact, light weight and high output force due to the compliant structure using the layered springs. In this paper, we introduce the mechanical structure of the proposed mechanism.
