THE APPARATUS FOR JOINT ORTHOSIS POSSIBLE CUSTOMIZED SUPPORT ACCORDING TO DIRECTION OF CUFF

摘要

The present invention relates to a joint assisting device capable of customized support according to the direction of a cuff. More specifically, two or more elastic materials are combined and used for a foot support unit and a cuff. Accordingly, the overall weight of the joint assisting device is reduced compared to an existing nonferrous metal product. PEEK having high tensile strength is used as a material for a hinge unit for supporting the lower leg part including the calf and the shin, so that curvature can be adjusted according to the seriousness of a wound of a user and rehabilitation training can be actively performed. The direction of the cuff is changed according to the portion of the lower leg part, and supporting power can be adjusted according to the extent of the wound and the location of the wound of the user.
