Abstract:

Lower Body Exoskeleton is nothing but chairless chair used in Industries. The people who are working in Industry can wear it on legs like Exoskeleton. It is a mechanical ergonomics device that is designed according to the shape and function of the human body. It is not a chair but it acts like a chair. The concept of this chairless chair is when it activates you can walk. And then if it is inactive, it locks into place from an angle of 900, 1200 and 1500 and you can sit down on it. It is mainly used for industrial workers, standing for a long period of time leads to discomfort and reduce productivity. So Design and Analysis is an important parameter to know the forces induced in each element and actuators.
