    Abstract: A prosthetic ankle-foot system and a method for operating a prosthetic ankle-foot system are described. The prosthetic ankle-foot system comprises a forefoot element, a heel element and a shin element. A forefoot hinge joint rotatably connects the forefoot element to the heel element. A heel hinge joint rotatably connects the heel element to the shin element. The prosthetic ankle-foot system further comprises a damper for exerting a dampening force for resisting a rotation of said heel hinge joint and a transducer for adjusting the dampening force of said damper as function of an angular position of said shin element with respect to said forefoot element.

    Abstract: A prosthetic foot (190) incorporates a foot keel (192) and a resilient calf shank (193) with its lower end connected to the foot keel to form an ankle joint of the prosthetic foot. The calf shank extends upward from the foot keel by way of an anterior facing convexly curved portion (195) of the shank, and is secured to the foot keel by way of a coupling element (194). The lower end of the shank is reversely curved (196) and housed by a reversely curved portion of the coupling element. A posterior calf device (191) has a cable (204) which is untensioned in a normal gait cycle but tensioned by a force loading on the prosthesis greater than 120% of body weight of the user to limit, e.g. stop, further anterior motion of the upper end of the shank.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a prosthetic, orthotic, or robotic foot having at least two joints (8003, 8004). One joint is located in a position analogous to the human MTP joint (8003), and the other is located in a position analogous to the human subtalar joint (8004). Motions of these two joints are mechanically couples. Furthermore, these joints (8003, 8004) are created using "tensegrity" design principals, where connections between the compression members are made by a network of tension members. These tension members create axes of motion, and limitations on those axes of motion. Actuators or linear elastic "springs" are use to alter the torque/angular deflection response curve of these joints, so that the rollover profile of the human foot can be duplicated by this invention.
