Abstract

This paper presents a 2 DOF elbow prosthesis design and analysis, which includes developing a worm gear transmission, adapting a torsional spring for the flexo-extension movement, and a crown pinion transmission with two torsional springs for the pronosupination movement. A set of dynamic simulations was conducted to determine how feasible the proposed mechanism is and the torque needed for daily activities’ performance. The results show the physical and kinematic characteristics of the designed system.
