Fracture TRIZ Cases

A flexible buckle-mounted strap connection improves orthopedic brace comfort, adjustment, and durability while reducing bulk and pressure points.

An irregular lattice with thick and thin web regions lets one orthosis fit varied limb contours while preserving directional support and comfort.

Removable bolster tubes and a compressible cushion stabilize the leg and heel to prevent rolling, pressure ulcers, and skin breakdown.

A vacuum-driven dressing uses locking sheets to stiffen around a joint while negative pressure reduces swelling and supports healing.

Adjustable rods and coupling tubes maintain knee bone spacing to prevent painful bone-on-bone contact while preserving joint movement.

Adjustable rods and coupling tubes maintain finger joint bone spacing during movement to relieve pain and prevent compressive contact.

A partial-helix splint and two adjustable straps replace bulky lacing to speed ankle brace application while reducing weight and bulk.

Detachable finger and forearm rails bend to patient anatomy, enabling precise, sterilizable wrist and finger stabilization across cases.

A pivoting adapter and tensioning assembly reduces patient contact while maintaining traction support across standard beds.

Fluid-driven pistons and pressure sensing deliver precise, repeatable joint distraction at home without manual assistance or technicians.

Magnetic attraction guides rigid orthosis parts into place, while positive locking prevents unwanted movement and reduces motor effort during application.

An irregular lattice with rigid and flexible web zones lets one orthosis fit different body shapes without separate tooling.

A mesh-covered limb frame uses airflow and UV exposure to keep diabetic foot ulcers dry, oxygenated, and isolated from pathogens.

Embedded temperature sensing tracks when a cranial orthosis is worn, enabling objective wear-time compliance monitoring and better treatment follow-up.

Mechanical and heat-staked fixation replaces adhesives in orthopedic fasteners to prevent migration, odor, and detachment on contoured structures.

A double-bolt bracket speeds cervical collar height and angle adjustment while improving ergonomic fit, stability, and comfort.

Separate anterior and posterior sections redirect infant skull growth, avoid occipital pressure, and support symmetry correction with less discomfort.

A two-part rigid immobilizer with adjustable locking and rotor units accommodates swelling while maintaining secure support and exam access.

Selective chamber inflation lets a sleeve contour and hold a limb in position, improving immobilization comfort and patient adjustment.

Independent wrist, hand, and forearm bladders let this rigid splint tailor pressure distribution for faster immobilization and improved comfort.

Adjustable straps and hollow tube segments let a finger splint switch between secure immobilization and temporary mobility without removal.

Vacuum-packed laminar layers let an orthotic shell conform to complex anatomy, then lock rigidly to anchor joints and resist constraint forces.
