摘要： An adjustable prosthetic device and a fitting tool for positing the prosthetic device on a limb are described. The prosthetic device comprises two or more adjustable paddles that are movably coupled with an adapter via connectors. The connectors allow the paddles to be repositioned relative to a user's limb. The paddles are sized and dimensioned to capture lost motion between the limb and the prosthetic device through skeletal compression and tissue displacement. The fitting tool comprises two or more compression bars that removably couple with the two or more paddles of the prosthetic device. The fitting tool also comprises two or more linear actuators that control the positions of the compression bars and the paddles relative to the limb.

摘要： Various aspects of this disclosure relate to a prosthetic cover comprising an array of sensors, which transmit signals to an array of electrodes in a liner that fits over a residual limb of an amputee. Different interactions with the prosthetic cover cause different activation of the electrodes to transmit electrical current through different areas of the residual limb and modulate neurons differently within the residual limb. Various aspects of this disclosure also relate to a prosthetic liner with a substrate that includes electrodes for transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and/or electronic muscle stimulation for a residual limb.

摘要： In a sole which is attached to a ground contact region of an athletic prosthetic leg which has a leaf-spring-like leg portion extending to a side of a toe via at least one curved portion, the ground contact region extending from the toe to a side of the curved portion in an arc, the sole includes a bottom surface having a shape conforming to an extending shape of the ground contact region, and, in the bottom surface, a region at the side of the curved portion, which is defined by a border as a line extending in a width direction of the leg portion through a contact point with a road surface in a standing state of a wearer who wears the athletic prosthetic leg, has a higher drainage performance compared with a region other than the region at the side of the curved portion.

摘要： A mechanical interface connecting a biological body segment, such as a limb, portion of a limb or other body segment, to a wearable device such as a prosthetic, orthotic or exoskeletal device, is fabricated by quantitatively mapping a characterized representation of the body segment to form a digital representation of the mechanical interface shape and mechanical interface impedance. The mechanical interface includes a continuous socket defining a contoured inside surface and a contoured outside surface, and includes a material having an intrinsic impedance that varies through the material, so that the intrinsic impedance varies along the contoured inside surface.

摘要： The disclosure provides apparatus and methods of use pertaining to a bidirectional biomechanical prosthetic finger assembly. In one embodiment, the assembly includes an eccentric metacarpophalangeal (MCP) pivot configured for swivelable attachment to a hand of a user, a distal coupler, and an articulation assembly rotatively coupled therebetween. A ring configured to receive a user's residual finger is disposed upon the articulation assembly, and may be adjusted to a target location based on a length of the residual finger. The articulation assembly is configured to utilize vertical movements of the residual finger within the ring to articulate the distal coupler within a plane parallel to an x-z plane, and the MCP pivot is configured to utilize lateral movements of the residual finger within the ring to articulate the distal coupler within a plane parallel to an x-y plane. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

摘要： A transtibial prosthetic device comprises a pylon configured as a unitary truss structure formed of a plurality of elongated supports interconnected at nodes and having open spaces between supports of the plurality of elongated supports. The unitary truss structure comprises a polymer. A foot-ankle complex extends from a base of the pylon. The foot-ankle complex comprises an s-shaped posterior portion, an s-shaped anterior portion, and a sole portion. The s-shaped posterior portion and the s-shaped anterior portion both extend from the sole portion, have upper portions with curvatures that are concentric with each other, and are separated from each other by a gap.
