Abstract
The orthopedic device includes an articulating frame including a thigh portion including a curved thigh cuff, a calf portion including a curved calf cuff, and a center hinge connecting the thigh portion and the calf portion. A strap includes a calf end segment securely attachable to the calf portion. A suspension segment is adjacent to the calf end segment. A thigh end segment is securely attachable to the thigh portion. A spiraling segment is adjacent to the thigh end segment. An intermediate segment formed of webbing material is between the suspension segment and the spiraling segment. The clip engages the intermediate segment. The clip is engageable with a clip receptacle positioned on the calf portion. During use, the suspension segment lays across the top part of the calf minimizing migration. The intermediate segment facilitates movement of the strap through the clip adjusting the spiraling segment and the suspension segment.
