A prosthesis cosmetic element for a prosthesis comprising a prosthesis joint which has an upper part and a lower part that is mounted thereon in a pivotal manner about a pivot axis, the prosthesis cosmetic element has a first frame part, which has at least one first securing device for fixing on the lower part, and a second frame part with at least one second securing device for securing on the upper part. The frame parts are mounted in a pivotal manner relative to each other, and the prosthesis joint is equipped with a rotational element on which an actuating element is arranged. The actuating element is accessible from the outside by a frame part or through a frame part.

Prosthesis cosmetic element, and system consisting of prosthesis cosmetic element and prosthesis

A prosthesis socket for a prosthesis, which comprises a connecting member for a distal prosthesis device and an outer socket, which is made predominantly from a rigid material, and a proximal opening for receiving a residual limb and which is surrounded by an outer socket edge. The outer socket edge is made of a flexible and non-elastic material in a ventral region, the flexible and non-elastic material being adapted to the body shape of the wearer of the prosthesis socket.

Prosthesis socket

The invention relates to a liner that is intended to be pulled over an amputation stump, is made of an electrically non-conducting material, has a form that is adapted or that adapts to the amputation stump, has an inner wall that lies against the skin of the amputation stump, and is provided with at least one electrode, which is arranged between the skin of the amputation stump and the outside of the liner in order to transmit electrical signals, a high level of wearing comfort is ensured along with reliable transmission of the electrical signals in that at least one conducting section is integrated into the material of the liner in the area of the electrodes, the at least one conducting section forming a uniform and consistently oriented inner wall together with the non-conducting material of the liner.
