title = "Proposal of a mechanism for an electrical elbow prosthesis",
abstract = "This work focuses on the description of the system of mechanism for a electrical prosthesis. Considering system performance and system of transmission, both will allow to make the movements of the electrical prosthesis. The electrical prosthe-sis was designed to replace the function of the elbow joint of an upper limb. In the system of transmission is based on rotary mo-tion since it is similar to the movements of the elbow joint which is flexion and extension, to carry out these movements were de-termined using the gears; of which were calculated to produce them, it is described in this work. On the other hand, the system performance was chosen by using the electrical actuators for high efficiency, high availability and variety of sizes. To be able to define our system of mechanism of a electrical prosthesis, it should be considered several criteria listed in this work, and fi-nally the torque output was calculated to know how much weight can load the prosthesis designed.",
