The precise positioning design of upper limb prostheses is important for patients with upper limb disability. In this study, we propose an upper limb prosthesis with a negative pressure design. Mechanical analysis is performed to obtain the force and moment equilibrium equations. Then, the individual discipline feasible method is performed to decouple the original problem into a three-sub-discipline problem. A minimum of three shoulder straps of tension is obtained during optimization using the Isight harness scheme. The prosthetic socket can be firmly attached to the human body. Further experiments verify that the proposed device meets the basic requirements of wearing.
