Problems solved by technology

[0004] The disadvantage of this knee bandage is in particular that in many applications the medial centering of the straps is not ideal
Orthotics have little effect on the patella in certain states of motion and / or in certain knee injuries that require treatment to provide a beneficial preventive or therapeutic effect
In some other movement situations, such as sitting cross-legged, the pressure on the patella can also be felt too strongly and may not be therapeutically beneficial

Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 A side view of a special embodiment of the knee bandage according to the invention is shown schematically. Shown is a top view with respect to the medial side of the knee joint. On the hosiery 10, a molded insert 20 is provided facing the inner side, ie towards the knee joint, which encloses the patella. The molded pad is centered about the patella at the window or at the material thinning 22 . A substantially inelastic flexible band 30 extending inside the hosiery 10 is guided along this forming insert 20 into a channel 40 at least in the region of the forming insert 20 . The straps 30 pass through the through-holes 15 from the inside to the outside of the textile web in order to be fastened there via the upper end 31 or the lower end 32 respectively at the variable anchoring points 11 , 12 . In a special embodiment, the hosiery additionally has a spring bar element 50 . The anchor points 11 , 12 can be connected with a force fit to the spring rod element ...

The invention relates to a bandage for a knee joint, comprising an elastic textile hose, a ring- or strap-shaped elastic profiled insert, which is arranged in or on the textile hose for encompassing at least the lateral (fibula-side) section of the patella of the knee joint, and at least one flexible tension band, which extends over the knee joint substantially in the longitudinal direction of the bandage and which is not extendible.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an improved elastic knee bandage with an orthotic strap for stabilizing the kneecap (patella). According to the invention, the effect of the orthosis on the knee cap is adjustable. Background technique [0002] The knee bandages mentioned here are mainly used to correct the position of the knee cap by means of a targeted and adjustable mechanical force action. Knee bandages for stabilizing the knee joint are known which are made of elastic textile material and are worn on the knee like a sock. Such bandages usually have a profile insert (pad) which surrounds the knee cap with a cutout and is arranged on or in the textile material. This shaped padding, in combination with the forces generated on the knee joint by the inherent elasticity of the textile bandage, is primarily used to: mechanically stabilize the knee joint, remove water from the tissue due to inflammation, and / or Ensure that the pad is in the correct phys...
