Prosthesis

A joint orthosis including an upper member, a lower member operably connected to the upper member by one or more swivel axes at a joint mechanism, and a pad attached to the joint mechanism and positioned between the joint mechanism and the body part, wherein the joint mechanism includes a clip connection for securing the pad to the joint mechanism. The upper and lower members include a means for attaching the joint orthosis to a body part of a user, such as an extremity. The clip connection connects to a coupling element that is one or more of an adapter or pad bracket positioned between the joint mechanism and the pad. The pad, pad bracket and/or adapter are configured to cover over the joint mechanism and the pivot axis. The upper and lower members can include teeth that interlock with each other in order to form a synchronized pivot movement.

Joint orthosis

Pump

An orthopedic splint, which, as part of an orthosis, is intended to bear on a part of the body, can be used with different configurations. The splint consists of two round rods () which are arranged approximately in a plane () and whose ends on both sides are inserted rotatably in round seats () of two endpieces (). Both round rods () are designed with at least one angled part () in the plane (). The round seats () of an endpiece () form an acute angle with respect to one another and are designed with an excess dimension relative to the inserted end so that, by rotating the round rods (), different relative angles extending out from the plane () can be set between the endpieces () in two end settings.
