摘要

Ankle joint spring element for artificial legs and artificial foot. In order to achieve a movement of the foot along the lines of a prosupination about the longitudinal axis of the foot, the ankle joint spring member provided with a reinforcing member (10) is comprised of a channel section (16), whose respective legs are elastically movable when subjected to a load so that an artificial foot possessing a function mechanism corresponding to the natural coordinated movements is obtained (Fig.1).
