Abstract: An anatomical brace for stabilizing and supporting a uniting pivoting joint such as a knee joint disposed between a first limb structure and a second limb structure. The brace includes first and second cuffs and a pivotable brace joint there between with two opposing pivoting assemblies. Each assembly includes forward and rearward arm members in tandem and a frame structure having a first end attached to the first cuff and a second end attached to the second cuff. Extending between the cuffs is an adjustable joint extension limiter for regulating pivotable distance of the cuffs in relation to each other. Spherical sockets movably positioned within the frame structure permit naturally-occurring multi-planar joint movement such that the brace here defined effectively limits pivotal extension distance, yet permits normal joint bendability with multi planar movability up to such limit, thereby stabilizing and supporting joint-controlled limb unions.

Abstract: The invention provides a device for protecting ligaments in a knee joint of a user. The device includes a knee brace positionable about a knee joint of a user and a boot wearable on a foot of a user. Additionally, the device includes a flexible tether member including a first coupling element coupled to the knee brace and a second coupling element coupled to the boot. The boot and knee brace are attachable and detachable via the first and second coupling elements. The flexible tether member is adjustable in length to dispose the flexible tether member in tension at least in a portion of a maximum foot range of rotation, where the maximum foot range of rotation of the user's foot relative to the knee joint causes hyperextension of a knee ligament.

Abstract: There is provided a brace for stabilizing a uniting pivoting joint disposed between first and second limb structures of a living being. The brace comprises upper and lower frame members, each encompassing the first and second limb structures respectively, and a pivoting joint member comprised of two opposing pivoting assemblies. The assemblies include a limb extension slot having an adjustable length. The slot is located on at least one of the upper or lower frame members. The assemblies also include an exteriorly accessible limb extension regulator for regulating the limb extension slot length. The limb extension regulator is coupled to the limb extension slot. The pivoting assembly further includes an arm member comprised of upper and lower ends, each being pivotally connected to the upper and lower frame members, respectively. The arm member further includes a regulation portion retained in the limb extension slot.

Abstract: A head protection system is disclosed herein. The system may comprise a helmet having a rigid exterior shell and a padded interior. A shoulder cuff may be disposable over left and right shoulders of the wearer. A plurality of pistons may be attached to the helmet and the shoulder cuff. Each of the pistons may be fluidly connected to each other through a tube and ultimately to a reservoir. The tube may have a small inner diameter to provide resistance to movement of the pistons during rapid deceleration or acceleration of the helmet with respect to the wearer's body.
