    Abstract: A support (14) for an article has a body (22) arranged for length adjustment along a length adjustment axis (65). A tensioning device (26) is connected to the support (14) and adjustment of the tensioning device (26) shortens or lengthens a length of the support (14) along the length adjustment axis (65). The body (22) defines at least one opening (28) overlapping at least part of the length adjustment axis (65) such that length adjustment is governed by modification of the size of the at least one opening (28) according to adjustment by the tensioning device (26).

    Abstract: An Achilles heel wedge (200) has a back part (292), a front part (294), and a longitudinal axis (A) extending in a longitudinal direction between the back part (292) and the front part (294). A first wedge section (256) defines a bottom surface (270) and a top surface (272). The top surface (272) of the first wedge section (256) forms a convex portion (276) curving along the longitudinal axis (A) and extending between side portions (296) of the first wedge section (256). The convex portion (276) is positionable under the longitudinal arch of a user's foot during use. A second wedge section (254) is removably attachable to the bottom surface (270) of the first wedge section (256). The second wedge section (254) defines substantially parallel top and bottom surfaces (264, 266) and a ramped edge (268) at or near a front of the second wedge section (254). The ramped edge (268) extends downwardly and forwardly relative to the first wedge section (256) and the top surface (264) of the second wedge section (254).

    Abstract: A vacuum suspension system (20) includes a pump mechanism (200) operatively connectable to a prosthetic socket (10). The pump mechanism (200) has a first member (204) and a second member (202). First and second fluid chambers (217, 220) are located between the first and second members (204, 202). The second fluid chamber (220) is fluidly separate from the first fluid chamber (217), and arranged for fluid communication with the socket (210). An increase in volume of the first fluid chamber (217) mechanically expands the second fluid chamber (220), which, in turn, creates a vacuum pressure in the second fluid chamber (220).

    Abstract: Liners (10) are adapted for use with a prosthetic or orthotic device, and provide a barrier and/or interface between a residual limb and a prosthetic socket, or between an orthotic device and the site of application. The prosthetic and orthotic liners include at least one antiperspirant (30), and methods of forming the same in an efficient, reliable manner. The liners (10) may include aluminum-based antiperspirants such as Aluminum Zirconium Tetrachlorohydrex Glycine.

    Abstract: Prosthetic feet having improved vertical suspension are provided. A prosthetic foot can include a foot member having a change in curvature near a toe section so that the toe section is downwardly vertically offset from the remainder of the foot member. A prosthetic foot can have upper and lower foot members that extend parallel to each other and are separated by a gap. The lower foot member can extend beyond a distal end of the upper foot member to form a toe section. An adapter for coupling a prosthetic foot to another prosthetic component is also provided. The adapter includes a cavity for receiving the proximal end of a prosthetic foot. The prosthetic foot is secured to the adapter with a curable material such as epoxy to provide a more lightweight system.

    Abstract: A prosthetic knee (100) provides security and stability, particularly to low activity users, household and limited community ambulators, single and/or slow speed ambulators, and those with little voluntary control, while also balancing walking (dynamic) performance for low activity users. The prosthetic knee (100) includes a housing (2), parallel anterior links (4, 5), a posterior link (3), and a chassis (1). The geometry of the links and their relationship to one another (3, 4, 5) allow for low voluntary control, shortening of mid-swing, which reduces stumbling risk, and geometric stability in stance. The anterior links (4, 5) are particularly oriented, sized and located to provide for stability. The anterior links (4, 5) both extend above the posterior link (3) and substantially below the posterior link (3). The prosthetic knee includes a friction adjustment mechanism (6), a stability adjustment mechanism (110), and an adjustable extension assist mechanism (14).
