A lower limb rehabilitation method includes the steps of firstly wearing a mechanical outer skeleton on a users lower limb next, configuring a trigger condition then using an electromyogram signal sensor to sense an electromyogram signal for a specific muscle of the user while performing a specific action subsequently, determining whether a sensed result of the electromyogram signal sensor conforms with the trigger condition configured initially or not. If the sensed result of the electromyogram signal sensor does not conform with the trigger condition, the outer mechanical skeleton is not activated and the trigger condition is required to be reconfigured. If the sensed result of the electromyogram signal sensor does conform with the trigger condition, an action generation unit is triggered to transmit a control signal to a control unit, thereby enabling the control unit to control the outer mechanical skeleton to drive the users lower limb of the user with the specific action. Accordingly, a rehabilitation effect can be achieved.一種下肢復健裝置之控制方法,首先設定欲執行的特定動作,將動作分解為複數個動作階段,設定個動作階段的一觸發條件,再依序產生動作階段,同時使用肌電訊號感測器感測使用者之特定肌肉部位的肌電訊號,判斷肌電訊號感測器的感測結果是否符合一開始所設定該動作階段之觸發條件,如果不符合觸發條件時,機械外骨骼不會作動,當符合觸發條件時會觸發一動作產生單元,動作產生單元會發送一控制訊號至一控制單元,使控制單元控制機械外骨骼產生所需的特定復健動作。
