摘要：A lot of Hip Joint Simulator have been made nowadays, most of them use different structure and method. This research reports a pin-on-ring tribometer design that is used to became hip joint simulator based on the movement of the salat (salat gait). Modified femoral head and acetabular cup holder are performed, to design a reciprocating motion for simulation of artificial hip movement. An interesting finding from this study is a new linked-bar mechanism that leads to the ability to move femoral head against the acetabular cup and measure wear volume of an THR patients during normal salat gait. The designed motion angle is 121.5° in the flexion direction and 15.5° in the direction of abduction. Linked bar for sensor dial indicator have enough adjustment, but there is still a movement that is not rigid upon running hip joint process simulator. This research concentrates on the bar is already linked in accordance or not when compared with the data in the simulate on a computer. Estimation error and deviations that occur between numerical and experimental is going forward to improve hip joint simulator Undip to be more precise and relevant research to use THR Undip.
