    摘要: A prosthetic foot (100) incorporates a foot keel (101) and a resilient calf shank (105) with its lower end connected to the foot keel to form an ankle joint of the prosthetic foot. The foot keel has forefoot and hindfoot portions and a midfoot portion extending between the forefoot and hindfoot portions. The calf shank extends upward from the foot keel by way of an anterior facing convexly curved portion (106) of the shank, and is secured to the foot keel by way of a coupling element (107) which is monolithically formed with the forefoot portion of the foot. The lower end of the shank is reversely curved (110) and housed by a reversely curved portion (112) of the coupling element.

    摘要: A lower extremity prosthesis including a foot, an ankle, a shank and a posterior calf device to store energy during force loading of the prosthesis and return the stored energy during force unloading to increase the kinetic power generated for propulsive force by the prosthesis in gait. The posterior calf device includes at least one coiled spring formed monolithically with the shank and having a free end, and at least one elongated member extending between the free end of the at least coiled spring and the lower portion of the prosthesis. The at least one coiled spring is resiliently uncoiled in response to anterior movement of the upper end of the shank in gait for storing energy.

    摘要: An improved mobility assistance apparatus for use by a person as a walking aid, e.g. a cane, crutch, or walker, has a support capable of bearing vertical forces during use of the apparatus as a walking aid and a resilient device connected to a lower portion of the support for ground engagement. The device has a dynamic response characteristic to forces associated with ambulating using the apparatus as a walking aid which generates propulsive force to aid mobility. Two coiled springs are monolithically formed with the device at an upper end thereof. A flexible elongated member is connected to a radially inner, free end of each of the coiled springs and extends about a return at a lower portion of the device for resiliently expanding the coiled springs to store energy with force loading of the apparatus during use and to release stored energy during force unloading to generate propulsive force to aid mobility. The dorsiflexion moment of the resilient device is an order of magnitude greater than a plantarflexion moment thereof to mimic human ankle joint function.

    摘要: A mobility assistance apparatus for use by a person as a walking aid, e.g. a cane, crutch, or walker, improves the mobility of the person by providing a loading response shock absorption which stores energy and releases the energy to generate propulsive force to aid mobility. A device of the apparatus for ground engagement has a monolithically formed extrusion with foot, ankle and shank portions with improved spring rate gain. An upwardly extending, vertical load bearing support of the apparatus is connected to the device and flexes to absorb shock and store energy and then release it in ambulation to aid mobility. A set of various terrain foot slipper socks with different distal surface configurations for ice, snow and mud can be selectively used on the foot to enhance safety.

    摘要: A prosthetic foot (70) incorporates a foot keel (71) and a calf shank (72) connected to the foot keel to form an ankle joint area of the prosthetic foot. The foot keel has forefoot and hindfoot portions and an upwardly arched midfoot portion extending between the forefoot and midfoot portions. The calf shank includes a downward convexly curved lower end in the form of a spiral which is adjustably attached at a portion thereof to the foot keel by way of a coupling element. The calf shank extends upward anteriorly from the spiral to an upstanding upper end thereof. The coupling element includes a stop of a predetermined size to limit dorsiflexion of the calf shank in gait. The calf shank creates an integrated ankle and calf shank with the foot keel which has a variable radii response outcome similar to the disclosed parabola shaped calf shank while being readily covered by a cosmetic covering for the foot, ankle and lower leg.
