Abstract

In conjunction with sustainable development goal 3 (SDG 3), it is important to develop a national electrical component for physiotherapy robot development. This study aimed to develop an open-loop field-oriented control (FOC) driver utilizing BTS7960. The driver utilized three BTS7960s that produce sinewave with variable angular frequency (ω). The research then compared the open-loop FOC driver with electronics speed controller (ESC) performance to drive a brushless DC (BLDC) motor with an initial rotation per minute (RPM) of 400, 500, and 600. The main observation was RPM reduction when the BLDC motor was subjected to loads of 20, 35, 50, 65, and 80 gr. The result showed that the open-loop FOC driver performed better, especially on an 80 gr load. For an initial RPM of 600, the RPM reduced to 100 when controlled with an open-loop FOC driver, but lesser when controlled using ESC. The open-loop FOC driver produces higher torque on the BLDC motor so it could rotate with less reduction compared to ESC, which is evident. The open-loop FOC driver can be easily developed using BTS7960 with a settling time of 4 seconds. However future studies should still consider close-loop FOC drivers to achieve higher torque performance and faster transient response for physiotherapy robot applications.

Abstract

Previous ankle physiotherapy robots, called picobot rely on predefined trajectories continuous passive movement without considering patient intent, limiting the encouragement of user-intent motion. This study then integrates electromyography (EMG) signals as triggers into picobot with an ankle velocity-based control system. The upgraded robot activates movement in specific gait phases based on muscle activity, synchronizing therapy with the patient’s intent. Functionality test on 7 young male healthy subjects investigates leg muscles, such as Tibialis Anterior, Soleus, and Gastrocnemius muscles for the most significantly contribute to ankle movements. Then, the muscle is tested to trigger picobot movements. Functionality tests revealed the Tibialis muscle significantly contributes to gait phases 2, the Soleus is prominent in phases 3 and 4, and gastrocnemius is active on phase 1. The robot successfully performs plantarflexion when EMG signals exceed a 1.58 V threshold, reaching a target position of -0.11 rad at a constant velocity of -0.62 rad/s. These findings establish a foundation for future trials since patient testing has not yet been conducted. By promoting active participation, this innovation has the potential to enhance rehabilitation outcomes. Incorporating user-intent triggers may accelerate recovery and improve healthcare accessibility in Indonesia, offering a significant advancement in physiotherapy technologies.
