Modeling and Assembly of Exo-skeleton Suit
What is Exo-Skeleton suit?
- It is a wearable mobile machine
- It works on Pneumatics/Hydraulics/Motors
- It consists of a cabin, pair of legs and hands and grippers
Aim and Objective:
- To model the cabin, pair of legs and hands, grippers along with the pneumatic cylinders and assemble the parts
- The objective of the project is to understand and simplify the complexity in assembly of multiple small parts
Details of the project:
- Upper arm is fixed to the body and lower arm is connected to the upper arm at the elbow joint. A piston cylinder is connected to both the upper arm and lower arms for their movements.
- Grippers are attached to the hand i.e. at the end of lower arm and their movements are handled by piston cylinders
- The whole upper main body is connected to the base with the help of the shaft. Two pistons will be connected to the upper body on base for sideward movements of the upper body
- Leg joints are connected to the base and piston cylinders connected to the legs allow the movements for walking
Introduction of software:
Solid works: Solid works is a product of Dassault systems company. It is a software used for designing, assembling and real time rendering of the real time models. Any kind of complicated and sensitive designs can be easily modeled using the tools and interface of this software. The basic tools and its usage is explained in the description section
