To facilitate rehabilitation training for patients, we proposed the implementation of an anthropomorphic exoskeleton structure that incorporates a variable instantaneous center of rotation (ICR). This design considers the variability in knee ICR among individuals, resulting from the irregular form of the human knee joint, and leverages a double-degrees-of-freedom (2DOF) five-bar mechanism to adapt to these differences. The walking gait of the human lower limb and the corresponding knee ICR were measured and calculated using an optical 3D motion capture system. The optimal dimension parameters of the five-bar mechanism were then obtained through the optimization of human movement position inputs and rod length constraints to minimize the error in knee ICR, gait angle, and ankle trajectory between the human and the exoskeleton. Finally, we established an exoskeleton prototype to conduct relevant experimental tests. The experiment results showed that the average errors of knee ICR trajectory, hip angle, knee angle, and ankle trajectory were 5.52 × 10−4 m, 0.010 rad, 0.014 rad, and 1.57 × 10−3 m, respectively. The experimental results demonstrated that the exoskeleton’s movement trajectory was close to the human’s, reducing the human–mechanism interaction force and improving patient comfort during rehabilitation training.
Tea flow rate is a key indicator in tea production and processing. Due to the small real−time flow of tea leaves on the production line, the noise caused by the transmission system is greater than or close to the real signal of tea leaves. This issue may affect the dynamic measurement accuracy of tea flow. Therefore, a variational mode decomposition combined with a wavelet threshold (VMD−WT) denoising method is proposed to improve the accuracy of tea flow measurement. The denoising method of the tea flow signal based on VMD−WT is established, and the results are compared with WT, VMD, empirical mode decomposition (EMD), and empirical mode decomposition combined with wavelet threshold (EMD−WT). In addition, the dynamic measurement of different tea flow in tea processing is carried out. The result shows that the main noise of tea flow measurement comes from mechanical vibration. The VMD−WT method can effectively remove the noise in the tea dynamic weighing signal, and the denoising performance is better than WT, VMD, EMD, and EMD−WT methods. The average cumulative measurement accuracy of the tea flow signal based on the VMD−WT algorithm is 0.88%, which is 55% higher than that before denoising. This study provides an effective method for dynamic and accurate measurement of tea flow and offers technical support for digital control of the tea processing.
