Background technique

Restricted by the working environment and work characteristics, there are still many types of work that require employees to work standing, such as surgeons and workers on industrial production lines. However, standing for a long time to engage in productive labor can easily cause muscle soreness in the lower limbs and back, and even varicose veins in the lower limbs, resulting in reduced production efficiency and occupational diseases. Surgeons standing for a long time can easily cause back fatigue and lower limb joint pain, which distracts the attention during the operation and increases the risk of the operation. Workers on the industrial production line standing for a long time can easily lead to physical fatigue and occupational diseases, which not only easily leads to the reduction of the quality of produced products, but also easily increases the economic burden on employees and enterprises. On the other hand, surgeons need to walk occasionally to adjust the surgical position and posture, and workers on industrial production lines also need to move uninterruptedly to pick up tools and transport production materials. Therefore, traditional chairs cannot walk with the human body, nor can the wearer. Sit in any posture anytime, anywhere.

In order to solve the fatigue problem of lower limb joint muscle load when standing and half squatting when moving frequently, various "wearable chairs" have appeared, and the human body can sit anywhere after wearing them. The existing "wearable chairs" have two deficiencies: on the one hand, most of the existing schemes use the scheme of "thigh bar, calf bar and knee joint damper". One step must overcome the resistance of the damper, which limits the free flexion of the knee joint, making it inconvenient for the human body to walk freely after wearing it. On the other hand, these "wearable chairs" need to manually pre-adjust the joint angle when sitting, but the surgeon needs a clean environment with his hands, and cannot use his hands to adjust the seat angle when sitting.
