A wearable muscular strength assisting apparatus comprising:
- a base part for supporting a rear surface of a wearer;
- a leg part rotatably coupled to the base part and connected to a lower part of a body of the wearer;
- a wire part coupled to each of the base part and the leg part;
- and
- a driving part provided in at least one of the base part and the leg part, coupled to the wire part, and driven to pull or release the wire part depending on a control to provide assist force to waist muscular strength of the wearer,
- wherein the wire part includes a leg part side wire having both end portions each coupled to a pair of leg parts and a driving part side wire connecting a portion between both end portions of the leg part side wire and the driving part to each other.
A wearable muscular strength assisting tool comprising:
- a driving part pulling or releasing a wire part connecting an upper part and a lower part of a body of a wearer to each other at a time of bending or stretching the upper part to provide assist force during relative movement of the upper part and the lower part,
- wherein the wire part includes a leg part side wire having both end portions each coupled to a pair of leg parts and a driving part side wire connecting a portion between both end portions of the leg part side wire and the driving part to each other.
A wearable muscular strength assisting apparatus comprising:
- a base part for supporting a rear surface of a wearer;
- a pair of leg parts rotatably coupled to the base part and connected to a left lower part and a right lower part of a body of the wearer;
- a leg part side wire having both end portions each coupled to the pair of leg parts;
- a driving part side wire having one end portion coupled between both end portions of the leg part side wire;
- a driving part coupled to an other end portion of the driving part side wire and driven to pull or release the driving part side wire depending on a control to provide assist force to waist muscular strength of the wearer;
- a sensing part for detecting a tension of the driving part side wire;
- and
- a control part for controlling the driving part so that the driving part side wire maintains set tension.
