Artificial Horse for Rehabilitation

摘要

This essay gives a presentation about artificial horse for rehabilitation which is called rehabilitation horse.It is chiefly used for preventing and alleviating the cervical vertebra disease; it is also applied for burning extra fat of hip and belly.In other words,it can be effective for losing weight and shaping women’s figure.We observed the law of horse movement and then proposed the kinematic sketch of mechanism of the rehabilitation horse.We also constructed out the threedimension model with Pro/E.The model is adopted two-floor structures which are mostly made up of the crank-rocker,four-bar linkage mechanism and a slide.The crank-rocker mechanism is to simulate horse’s main movement.And others are to simulate horse'muscle movement.It’s essential to do simulations before product finished.We also did experiments to check whether it had effects on human body or mot.The electrodes were located on the 5th section of cervical vertebra to obtain EMG signal.Some electrodes were put on belly to get EMG signal,although this signal was a little fainter than the previous.The series of experiments obviously indicated that rehabilitation horse worked on human body effectively and efficiently.According to some medicinal principles,it is easy for us to draw a conclusion that the horse has a positive influence on the recovery rate of human body.We hope that our product will provide an interesting way to our healthy life and make us healthy more easily.
