<p>The truss body joint brace includes a pair of upper bars (10) for positioning on opposite sides of an upper portion (25) of a limb, a pair of lower bars (11) for positioning on opposite sides of a lower portion (26) of the limb, and a pair of hinges (12) for positioning on opposite sides of a joint (27) on the limb and connected between upper and lower bars. A pair of both upper front (13) and back (14) crossed straps are connected between the upper bars. A pair of both lower front (15 and back (16) crossed straps are connected between the lower bars. A flexible tubular upper sleeve (21) is positioned between the upper bars, and a flexible tubular lower sleeve (22) is positioned between the lower bars. The straps are adjustable (20) in length for snug fit. The bars, crossed straps and the limb cooperate to form a truss structure that strongly resists lateral forces and protect the body joint from injury while allowing normal joint movement.</p> |
