A supply system for at least one orthopedic technology component, which has at least one electronic and/or electrical device and has a supply connection and/or a radio device for receiving data and/or electrical energy. The supply system also includes a holder for the orthopedic technology component, which has a supply device, and which is compatible with the supply connection and/or the radio device, for supplying the orthopedic technology component with data and/or energy. The invention further relates to a system consisting of a supply system and an orthopedic technology device, and to a method for supplying the system with data and/or energy.

Supply system for orthopedic technology components and method

A method for distributing a limited amount of electrical power from an energy source to a plurality of electrical loads includes sensing and/or encoding the available electrical power of the energy source, monitoring a power balance of the loads by sensing and/or encoding the drawn power in the individual loads, and reducing the drawn power in the loads if the available power is not sufficient for supplying all the loads with the required power.

Method for distributing a limited amount of electrical power from an energy source

Systems and methods for controlling an orthopedic joint device of a lower extremity, the orthopedic joint device comprising an upper part, a lower part mounted in articulated fashion to the upper part, and a conversion device arranged between the upper and lower parts. The conversion device provides for, during pivoting of the upper part relative to the lower part, mechanical work from a relative movement between the upper and lower parts to be converted and stored in at least one energy store and supplied back to the joint device with a time offset in order to assist the relative movement. The stored energy is converted back and the supply of mechanical work takes place in a controlled manner during the assistance of the relative movement.

Orthopedic joint device and method for controlling same

A method for determining the alignment of a system, wherein the system includes measuring and display devices. The measuring device has a measuring platform and detects horizontal and vertical forces that are exerted by a person located on the measuring platform. The system also includes at least one camera device used to at least partially photograph the person located on the measuring platform. The method includes transmitting image data from the at least one camera device and measurement data from the measuring device to the display device, superimposing a force application line in the display device on the image data, and displaying the force application line on the image of the person located on the measuring platform. The method also includes detecting marker points with a fixed geometric relation to the measuring platform by the at least one camera device, wherein the geometric relationship of the marker points to one another is known, and determining the position and/or orientation of the measuring platform to the at least one camera device via an image evaluation of the detected marker points.
