Description

Development of multi purpose above knee prosthesis producing appliance

In the present invention, in order to manufacture the artificial limbs, the thigh mold, the component aligner, and the wearing mold are required, respectively. In addition, each purchase increases the purchase cost and is reflected in the production cost of the prosthesis, which is a factor in the price of the prosthesis.

 In order to solve this problem, if the device is developed by incorporating three separate devices into one, it can be convenient for patients with the convenience of drawing, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced if it is manufactured. For selling and selling at a price.

 In the present invention, due to diabetic foot disease and inadvertent accidents, patients undergoing physical cutting are generated, and the patients need a medical aid suitable for the affected part in order to have a normal social life.

 They need a leg that fits each affected area, and once a brace is made, it will act as its own part for 3-5 years. In addition, the person should wear a prosthesis about 16 hours a day, except bedtime, and distribute the body load to prevent eccentricity. If the correct work is not done in this manufacturing process, the accumulated fatigue will cause physical and mental pain for a long time.

In the case of knee prosthesis, which is cut over the knee during the manufacturing process, the alignment of sockets and components suitable for the individual affected part is the manufacturing point, and in this process, facilities such as a femoral mold, a component aligner, and a wearing frame are required. .

 In particular, the knee prosthesis, which is cut over the knee, requires the correct assembly of the individual and the alignment of the components.

 Conventionally, in order to manufacture the prosthesis, each requires a thigh mold, a component aligner, and a wearing frame. In addition, each purchase increases the purchase cost and is reflected in the production cost of the prosthesis, which is a factor in the price of the prosthesis.

 In order to solve this problem, if the device is developed by incorporating three separate devices into one, it can be convenient for patients with the convenience of drawing, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced if it is manufactured. Can be supplied at a price. In addition to enabling people with disabilities to enjoy human dignity and basic rights as patients, the cost of existing medical aids and products can be reduced and the discomfort of wearing them can be reduced. It is expected to contribute to the pursuit of better quality of life and the convergence between social classes by raising social interest.

 The prior art associated with the present invention is a state in which there is no related art, but the pylon is inserted into a socket into which the affected part of the prosthetic user is inserted to match the pylon to the line of action of the load acting on the pylon from the prosthetic user described in Patent No. The present invention relates to a drive for aligning a dynamic center of a prosthesis which tilts the socket manufacturing stump so as to find a combined dynamic center. In Korea, products such as thigh frames, component sorters, and wearing frames have been imported and sold, but the price is high, so they are often produced as eye guesses when making prostheses. As a result, patients often wear low-quality prostheses, and incorrectly aligned prostheses may cause secondary problems due to falls or falls. Therefore, in order to solve these problems, if the three separate devices are developed by combining one, the convenience of the patient can be comforted when the patient is removed, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced if it is manufactured. It is for selling and supplying at a low price.

The present invention is to make a device that can be blown, standing, and alignment can be made to the maximum effect at the minimum cost and to make the mold to be adjusted to the human body at the time of drawing to make the most suitable prosthesis for each patient It is helpful to use in a small space by using a product that has all the functions necessary for the production as a single device, and also to make it possible to consistently correct casting from a beginner to an experienced producer.

The present invention can reduce the cost by doing so as an invention that implies three functions in one,

The existing molds, standing frames, and sorting frames are being sold at very high prices.

Because the products are imported into all Germany or the United States, they are very expensive and many prosthetic manufacturers often make eye-catching without tools. As a result, patients often wear low-quality prostheses, and incorrectly aligned prostheses may cause secondary problems due to falls or falls.

 In addition, the existing products are sold separately in the mold, the standing frame, and the alignment frame.

As a result, three times the cost and producers working in a narrow production room compared to overseas is often burdened with the bulk of the device. In addition, foreign products may become obsolete as the angle of the skeleton may not be suitable when applied to Asian people due to the frame made to fit the Western body. Most of the prosthetic Koreans who make prosthetics without using the product separately from the existing products have problems. Compared to simple ankle or thigh cutting, femoral cutting is very difficult, complex, and requires a lot of attention. The most important part of this is the embroidered body that picks up the weight point well, followed by the correct alignment.

 Inexperienced novice producers often do not pick up the weight-bearing points of the patients, which makes them uncomfortable to walk and wear. In this case, the rehabilitation period is delayed, and the impact of the amputation and the broken heart may be made larger with uncomfortable limb walking.

 Also, if you do not align the alignment frame in the assembly frame, the alignment will not be correct.

This makes the operation of the artificial knee difficult and makes walking very unnatural. In addition, because of misaligned prostheses, many people fall down during walking, and secondary injury of patients has been inevitable. The present invention therefore relates to solving the problems listed above.

 The present invention aims to unify three devices, which are integrated into one device.

First, development and design of the support: The foot fixing fixture is mounted among the thigh limb parts, and it is designed and manufactured for the precise movement of up and down by adopting rack method.

Secondly, alignment adjustment device development: It consists of foot, socket, and knee support, and it is manufactured to move precisely by using gear method, and it is designed and manufactured with emphasis on light weight and durability of tools.

Third, the erect frame and the mold are developed to check the accuracy of fitting condition.

Removable support is attached to check the fitting state and load point of the check socket by allowing the stand to stand on the socket support. . In particular, it is intended to be made possible for the overweight patients.
