The lower limb exoskeleton is a wearable robot that assists walking in the human lower limb and conducts coordinated movement with human body driven by electro-mechanical or electro-hydraulic. Nowadays, increasing importance has been attached to the research of exoskeleton. Because of the advantages of fast system response, high control accuracy and strong load resistance, the hydraulic drive is widely used in exoskeleton control. A mechanical structure for the lower limb exoskeleton driven by hydraulic system was designed in this article, and part of its structure was optimized. Furthermore, its walking process was analysed by simulation.
