摘要：

Pneumatic muscle actuator (PMA) has the virtue of lightness, high power to weight ratio, small size, simple customization, easy fabrication, no stiction, inherent compliant behaviour and low cost. Hence, it has great potential as an actuator for hand rehabilitation device. Its stretchability and soft nature makes it easy to be mounted on curved surface and bend around corner. It is also able to produce very high forces over reasonable contraction. Here, we will present the use of PMA as a direct rotary actuator for hand rehabilitation glove. A model will be developed and verified experimentally for the PMA used in this configuration.
