ELASTIC HYPEREXTENSION BRACE ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF USE |
摘要 |
Embodiments of the hyperextension brace assembly utilize an elastic cross-strap attached to mounting facilities about a joint to provide progressive resistance to the extension of limbs about the joint. The elastic cross-strap assembly is positioned from a cross origin behind the joint to attachment points on upper and lower mounting facilities on the upper and lower limb portions and provides an opposing tensile force that limits the extension of mounting facilities and the limb portions. In embodiments for a knee joint, the brace assembly provides a progressive resisting force to resist hyperextension of the knee. Embodiments of the assembly are able to accommodate different joints, different size wearer's of the assembly and different tension settings such as for athletes during competition. Embodiments of the brace assembly can be used bilaterally and can be made without metal bracing to comply with the requirements of some sports. |
