pneumatic knee joint

A pneumatic knee joint is a type of artificial knee joint that uses compressed air to assist with movement and support. it use in above knee prosthesis . feature :- Dynamic Movement: Pneumatic systems allow for smooth and adaptive movements, mimicking natural knee motion. A typical pneumatic cylinder consists of a cylinder barrel, a piston, seals, and end caps. It may also include ports for air input and output. Compressed air is introduced into the cylinder through an inlet port. This air is typically generated by an air compressor. As the compressed air enters the cylinder, it pushes against the piston. This pressure causes the piston to move in one direction (extend or retract) depending on the configuration of the cylinder. When the piston reaches the end of its stroke, the air can be vented out through an exhaust port, allowing the piston to return to its original position. This can happen either automatically or through a control system. The motion can be controlled using valves that regulate the flow of air into and out of the cylinder, allowing for precise control of the piston’s movement. Lightweight Design: Pneumatic components can be lighter than traditional mechanical parts, improving comfort for the user. Shock Absorption: The system can absorb impact, reducing stress on other joints and enhancing overall mobility.

double action ankle joint afo

A double-action ankle joint ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) is a type of orthotic device designed to support and stabilize the ankle and foot. It features two separate joints, one for dorsiflexion (lifting the foot up) and one for plantarflexion (pointing the foot down). This dual-joint mechanism allows for more natural and controlled movement of the ankle, helping to address various conditions affecting gait and stability. Here are some key points about a double-action AFO: Functionality: The double-action joints provide the ability to control both upward and downward motion of the foot. This helps in managing conditions like foot drop, where the foot cannot be lifted properly, or other gait abnormalities. Customization: These AFOs are often custom-made to fit the individual's specific anatomy and needs. Adjustments can be made to fine-tune the range of motion and alignment. Materials: They are typically made from lightweight and durable materials such as thermoplastics or carbon fiber, which offer a balance of strength and flexibility. Indications: They are used for conditions like cerebral palsy, stroke, peripheral neuropathy, or other neurological or musculoskeletal disorders that affect ankle and foot function. Design: The double-action mechanism allows for controlled movement and can help in improving gait, stability, and overall mobility.

knee correction brace

Genu varum (bowlegs) and genu valgum (knock-knees) are common knee deformities in children that often resolve naturally as they grow. Genu Varum (Bowlegs): In this condition, the knees are apart while the feet and ankles are together, creating an outward curve. It’s typical in infants and toddlers (1-3 years old) and usually improves by age 3 or 4. If severe or persistent, orthotics or braces may be used to support proper alignment and guide bone growth. Genu Valgum (Knock-Knees): Here, the knees touch but the feet are apart. It is common in children aged 3-5 and typically corrects itself over time. If it persists, orthotics or braces may be used to improve alignment. Orthotics and Braces: Orthotics are shoe inserts that correct foot misalignment, potentially improving knee positioning. Braces or splints may be used in severe cases to guide proper bone growth. Braces: In more severe cases of genu varum or genu valgum, braces or splints might be used to help guide the bones to grow in the correct position. These devices are typically used when there's a concern about the condition not self-correcting over time. Braces may be worn during activities to promote proper alignment during movement.
