A mounting plate 8 is arranged above the connecting plate 6. Two grooves 9 are provided at the bottom of the mounting plate 8. Two vertical plates 7 are fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 6, and the tops of the two vertical plates 7 extend into the two grooves 9 respectively. A clamping groove 10 is respectively provided on the two vertical plates 7. A cavity 12 is provided in the mounting plate 8. Two clamping rods 11 are slidably installed in the cavity 12, and the ends of the two clamping rods 11 away from each other extend into the two clamping grooves 10 respectively. When the two clamping rods 11 are moved out of the clamping groove 10, the vertical plate 7 changes from a clamped state to a free state. The staff can remove the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 from the mounting plate 8 and replace the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 by moving the vertical plate 7 downward. The process is simple, fast and efficient.

[0020] In order to ensure that one end of the clamping rod 11 is always located in the clamping groove 10 to clamp the vertical plate 7 without being affected by other external forces, and thus the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 8, the ends of the two clamping rods 11 close to each other are respectively fixedly installed with movable plates 15, and fixed rods 16 are slidably installed on the two movable plates 15. In order to reduce the friction between the fixed rod 16 and the movable plate 15, and thus reduce the wear of the fixed rod 16 and improve the service life of the fixed rod 16, through holes are respectively opened on the two movable plates 15, and linear bearings are respectively fixedly installed in the two through holes. The fixed rod 16 penetrates the linear bearing and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the linear bearing, and the fixed rod 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 12, and a compression spring 17 is movablely sleeved on the fixed rod 16. In order to improve the service life of the compression spring 17, the compression spring 17 is a tin-plated spring, and the two ends of the compression spring 17 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding two movable plates 15.

[0021] In order to more conveniently move the card rod 11 out of the card slot 10, a winding rod 14 is rotatably installed in the cavity 12. In order to rotatably install the winding rod 14 in the cavity 12, a rotating hole is opened on the bottom inner wall of the cavity 12, and a rotating bearing is fixedly installed in the rotating hole. The winding rod 14 passes through the rotating bearing and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating bearing. The winding rod 14 rotates more stably in the cavity 12 through the bearing, and the bottom end of the winding rod 14 extends to the outside of the mounting plate 8. In order to make it more convenient for people to rotate the winding rod 14, a rotating plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the winding rod 14, and a friction sleeve is fixed on the rotating plate. The anti-slip sleeve prevents people from slipping when rotating the rotating plate, which affects work efficiency. Two pull ropes 18 are wound around the winding rod 14, and one end of the two pull ropes 18 is fixedly connected to the two movable plates 15 respectively.

[0022] The working principle of the hydraulic bionic ankle joint provided by the utility model is as follows: in the initial state, the compression spring 17 is in a compressed state, and the compression spring 17 makes the two clamping rods 11 always be located in the clamping groove 10 on one side to clamp the vertical plate 7 without being affected by other external forces, thereby fixing the mounting plate 8 and the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 together. When the device needs to be used, the mounting plate 8 is fixedly installed at the position of the below-knee amputation of the disabled person, and a prosthesis is formed by the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1, the rotating screw 5, the connecting plate 6 and the mounting plate 8 to replace the amputated part of the disabled person, so that the disabled person can live a normal life. By pressing the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 to keep the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 in a stationary state, the rotating screw 5 is rotated, and the rotating screw 5 rotates and moves upward. Thereby, the overall length of the device is lengthened, so that the disabled can adjust the overall length of the device according to the development of their normal legs, so that the disabled can always keep their legs at the same length, making the disabled more convenient in their daily life. When the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 fails and needs to be replaced, the rotating plate is rotated, and the rotation of the rotating plate drives the winding rod 14 to rotate, and the winding rod 14 rotates to reel in the pull rope 18, and the pull rope 18 pulls the two moving plates 15 and the clamping rod 11 to move. When the two clamping rods 11 move out of the clamping slot 10, the vertical plate 7 changes from a clamped state to a free state. The staff moves the vertical plate 7 downward to remove the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 from the mounting plate 8 and replace the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1. The process is simple, fast and efficient.

[0023] Compared with the related art, the hydraulic bionic ankle joint provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The utility model provides a hydraulic bionic ankle joint, which is composed of a hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1, a rotating screw 5, a connecting plate 6 and a mounting plate 8 to form a prosthesis to replace the amputated part of a disabled person, so that the disabled person can live a normal life. The overall length of the device is lengthened by rotating the screw 5, so that the legs of the disabled person can always maintain the same length, making the daily life of the disabled person more convenient. The rotating plate is driven to rotate two clamping rods 11 to move out of the clamping slot 10, and the staff can move the vertical plate 7 downward to remove the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1 from the mounting plate 8 and replace the hydraulic bionic ankle joint body 1. The process is simple, fast and efficient.
