In recent years, the lower limb exoskeleton has been more and more widely used in military, medical and other fields. In this paper, the muscle–bone model of the lower limb during the human walking process is analyzed, and a lower limb exoskeleton with the purpose of loadbearing is designed. The exoskeleton is driven by four hydraulic cylinders to the hip and knee joints whose design load is 50 kg. The kinematic and dynamic model of the exoskeleton designed in this paper is established and analyzed, and it is simulated. Finally, the experiments were carried out on the exoskeleton test platform to verify that the stability, bearing capacity, tracking effect and durability of the exoskeleton can meet the requirements.
