Abstract

This article is a study through research simulation Design and Mechanical Simulation of a Submersible Rotary Hydraulic Actuator For Application in Hydrotherapy. This device that will help the rehabilitation of a knee is characterized by the necessary position and speed parameters according to the type of material used and that has the ability to be used in hydrotherapies. In the first stage of design two versions of the research project were taken to validate them, in the second stage it must be validated by software simulations according to the CAD model determined in the first stage. It is concluded that the validation of the model must be simulated subject to certain modified parameters to validate according to the rehabilitation.
