INVESTIGATION OF THE STRESS–STRAIN STATE OF THE PLANET GEAR SHAFT AND CARRIER OF THE PLANETARY GEARBOX OF AN ELBOW ORTHOSIS
Mechanical transmissions are widely used in various types of structures and mechanisms in different branches of the machine-building industry. One such branch is medicine. Devices with mechanical components are also used for patient rehabilitation in the postoperative period. Such mechanisms are known as orthoses. Structures of this type must meet several strict requirements—for example, compactness, light weight, safety, reliability, and others. Orthoses must reproduce the lost functions of a healthy person as accurately as possible.
