Product Overview
The Passive Lower Limb Exoskeleton is an assistive walking device designed for load-bearing scenarios. It features an innovative structural design and an efficient force transmission system, delivering exceptional load-bearing capabilities.

Design Highlights
Our exoskeleton employs a rigid-soft coupling structure with adaptation to human locomotion. By integrating biomimetic mechanisms, flexible deformation components, springs, and redundant degrees of freedom, it achieves high degrees of freedom in human movement. This allows users to perform high-mobility actions such as running, jumping, crawling, and climbing. The device includes adjustable settings for both the legs and back, accommodating users with heights ranging from 160 to 185 cm. Its simple strapping system enables users to don and doff the exoskeleton within one minute. With an overall weight of 3.5 kg—60% of the weight of mainstream market products—it effectively reduces plantar pressure by 40% and shoulder load by 80%, extending the duration of physical activity by approximately 30%. The product has a rated load of 25 kg and a maximum load capacity of 50 kg, offering exceptional load-bearing ability and reducing user fatigue.

Market Prospects
With its superior ergonomics and robust load-bearing capacity, this passive lower limb exoskeleton significantly addresses the shortcomings of existing load-bearing exoskeletons and greatly enhances work efficiency. In the future,we aim to continuously optimize the product's performance, striving to become an industry leader.
