There are about hundreds of disaster happened every day around the world. However, due to the chaos of the rescue site, road congestion and other reasons, rescue workers can’t be immediately rushed to the disaster site to take measures in time. According to data, in the last century, there are nearly3.1million people died in the disaster caused by the earthquake. The uncertainty and risk of rescue scene, increasing the difficulty of making the rescue. Can rescued victims in prime time become a great significance issueThis paper presents a new wearable lower extremity exoskeleton equipment under the environment of disaster relief. Wearable lower extremity equipment is a walk helping interactive robot system. Rescue workers through the control system for lower limb wearable equipment to convey orders, equipment for the rescue workers to provide basic power assist, that assisted the movement based on or above their own strength conditions. In addition to basic functions, it also increase the rescuers’endurance and speed.Based on the relevant information and data when rescuers using the device, the main purpose of designing wearable lower extremity exoskeleton rescue equipment is to assist the rescue work and protect aid workers better. It requires carrying rescue workers and subsequently move together, therefore we need to consider the problem with degree of adaptability and consistency between the device and the rescuers when we design it. That means wearable lower extremity exoskeleton rescue equipment must have similar range of motion to the real human’s lower limb joints to better assist rescue workers and basic movement of rescuer, help to achieve better results.
