Abstract

This paper describes development of a hand and finger fixing system for the rehabilitation exercise of patient's fingers. In order to exercise the finger rehabilitation using a finger rehabilitation robot, a patient's hand or fingers are fixed safely. In this paper, The hand and fingers fixing system can safely fix stroke patient's hand and fingers by pressing with force control system. The characteristic test of the system was carried out. It is thought that the system could be used for fixing their fingers in stroke patient's finger rehabilitation exercise.
