Zusammenfassung:A human exoskeleton includes a first skeletal structure with a first coupling unit for coupling to a first part of a human body, a second skeletal structure connected to the first skeletal structure in an articulated manner and including a second coupling unit for coupling to a second part of the human body. An adjustment unit acts between the first and second skeletal structures, and includes at least one adjustable flow rate hydraulic actuator unit and a hydraulic unit that acts thereon and which has two pump connections. The first pump connection is fluidly connected to a working chamber of the actuator unit via a pressure line. An outlet line has a flow throttle and a calming tank is downstream of the throttle. The first pump connection is fluidly connected to the second pump connection via the outlet line and the calming tank, the outlet line having a flow therethrough when pressure is applied to the working chamber.
