Problems solved by technology

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to address the shortcomings of the existing prosthetic feet, and provide a rigid prosthetic foot with the characteristics of the transverse arch of the human body. The overall rigidity of the prosthesis is changed by using the change of the center of gravity of the human body during walking to meet the needs of different stages in the walking process. Different demands on the overall stiffness of the prosthetic foot

Abstract

A rigid prosthetic foot plate with the characteristics of the transverse arch of the human body belongs to the technical field of artificial limb manufacturing. The invention consists of a carbon fiber plate for the heel, a carbon fiber plate for the forefoot, an expansion component and a connecting piece, and combines the characteristics of the transverse arch of the human foot plate. During the process, the center of gravity of the human body changes, and the overall rigidity of the prosthetic foot is changed in conjunction with the mechanical action of the expansion component, so that when the user stands statically, the transverse curvature of the forefoot carbon fiber plate is small, the stiffness is small, and the overall foot is soft to adapt to changes in different road surfaces. Stability and comfort; when the footboard is kicked off the ground during dynamic walking, the lateral curvature of the forefoot carbon fiber plate becomes larger, and the stiffness becomes larger, which improves the transmission efficiency of the ground reaction force and has a better supporting and propulsive effect on walking. The invention can reduce the material used of the carbon fiber board, reduce the overall weight of the foot plate prosthesis and reduce the product price, and at the same time increase the propulsion propulsion function and comfort during the use of the prosthesis.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of artificial prosthetics, and in particular relates to a rigid prosthetic foot combined with the characteristics of the longitudinal arch of the human foot and the characteristic of the transverse arch. Background technique [0002] Prosthetics are suitable for patients with amputations due to diseases, accidents and other reasons. They are specially designed and manufactured with the help of engineering technology to make up for the functional loss caused by the missing limbs of amputee patients. In the prior art, the main body of the prosthetic foot is usually made of carbon fiber board, and the general fiber arrangement methods include plain weave and twill weave. When making traditional carbon fiber prosthetic feet, the main direction of carbon fiber fibers is designed with the longitudinal arch characteristics of the human foot as the main reference, that is, the main direction of carbon fiber is the l...
