Abstract
An underactuated exoskeleton for lower-limbs, for supporting the knee of a user, includes a first and a second coupling frame and a movement means associated with the first and with the second frame configured to confer to the second frame a roto-translation movement with respect to the first frame or vice versa. The exoskeleton further includes a junction means operatively interposed between the movement means and the first frame and/or the second frame configured to allow a relative rotation between the first and the second frame in a second plane, orthogonal to the first plane, a rotation of said second frame about said main axis of the leg and a relative translation between the first and the second frame in the second plane.
