摘要 |
Prosthetic devices and, more particularly, modular myoelectric prosthesis components and related methods, are described. In one embodiment, a hand for a prosthetic limb may comprise a rotor-motor; a transmission, comprising a differential roller screw; a linkage coupled to the transmission; and at least one finger coupled to the linkage. In one embodiment, a component part of a wrist of a prosthetic limb may comprise an exterior-rotor motor, a planetary gear transmission, a clutch, and a cycloid transmission. In one embodiment, an elbow for a prosthetic limb may comprise an exterior-rotor motor, and a transmission comprising a planetary gear transmission, a non-backdrivable clutch, and a screw. |

1. An elbow for a prosthetic limb, the elbow comprising:
an exterior-rotor motor; a transmission comprising a planetary gear transmission, a non-backdrivable clutch, and a screw; the screw adapted to receive a rotational force in a first direction from the clutch, and in response to the rotational force in the first direction, extend linearly with respect to the transmission so as to cause the elbow to flex. |
