Restraining Devices TRIZ Cases

An inflatable tube expands inward to press against a torso and restrict arm movement.

A cervical orthosis uses a forehead band and torso harness to immobilize the spine without chest pressure.

Adjustable Figure 9 straps replace bulky TLSO braces to provide biomechanical stabilization while improving user mobility and compliance.

Buckling elastic devices stiffen during high-rate motion to limit unwanted joint displacement while maintaining low compression at rest.

An articulated pelvic frame with abdominal and back panels stabilizes the arm while eliminating cervical spine loading from shoulder straps.

Segmented torso and arm modules with a scalloped clavicle strap prevent neck creep and heat build-up while maintaining immobilization.

A knee brace connector uses a segmented positioning gear and button mechanism to define rotation ranges between pivot arms.

Segmented abduction pillows with VELCRO fasteners enable progressive external rotation angles, resolving immobilization stability trade-offs.

A hand elevation device uses a neck strap and forearm support to position the recovering limb above heart level.

A self-applying arm immobilizer uses a hoop-shaped component to fold and fasten the flexible band for independent user application.

A water-resistant stress-distributing layer adheres to skin during surgery.

A sit-to-stand orthotic apparatus uses a movable trunk support to guide user motion through a predetermined range during transitions.
