Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention will be further described by the following specific examples and drawings, but should not be construed as limiting its scope.

[0018] figure 1 A top view showing a schematic general view of an embodiment of a joint splint according to the invention in a joint orthosis, in particular a rigid frame orthosis for a knee joint. Extending from the connector 100 are two hingedly mounted arm joint splints 110 , 120 . As depicted here, in the use state of the rigid frame support, the connector housing 200 (not visible) is completely covered by the cover 400 at least on the side of the connector housing opposite the body joint. In the exemplary embodiment shown here, the cover 400 has at least one window 410 . The cover 400 is held in place by a central locking latch 420 formed on a mating opposing locking element 246 (not shown) in the connector housing.

Abstract

The invention relates to a biaxial connector capable of restricting pivoting, in particular to a joint orthosis for supporting and variably restricting joint flexion. The present invention provides improvements to known joint orthoses. The restricting wedge (300) can be inserted into the connector housing (200) in an axial direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a biaxial connector capable of restricting pivoting, in particular to a joint orthosis for supporting and variably restricting joint bending. The present invention provides improvements to known joint orthoses. Background technique [0002] Medical aids for orthopedics, so-called orthoses for maintaining, stabilizing or restoring joint function, are well known. For the therapeutic mechanical support of joint function, especially for the controlled guidance of joint motion, especially for the limitation of the bending angle of the joint which is often required in therapy, mechanically stable orthoses, so-called "rigid frame orthoses" are well known of. They are mechanically attached to either side of the joint and bridge the joint with a rigid frame or bridge. The frame structure of the orthosis itself is pivotable at least in the region of the body joints and thus mechanically supports, guides or limits the joint function of...
