| 20110313338 | ANKLE JOINT BANDAGE - The invention relates to an ankle joint bandage comprising a stocking ( | 12-22-2011 |
| 20100218398 | Insole Comprising a Curve Support - The invention relates to a plastic insole comprising a curve support for the metatarsus. Provided in the region of the greatest height of the curve support on the underside of the insole are a plurality of longitudinally extending stiffening ribs as well as grooves, said grooves extending from the toe region in the direction of the heel as far as the metatarsal region and so curving round in the metatarsal region to the lateral side of the insole and terminating in said region that extending between the grooves are spring strips issuing from each of the toes, wherein material can be removed from the spring strips and stiffening ribs in order individually to adapt the thickness thereof. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100113997 | WRIST ORTHOSIS - The invention relates to a wrist orthosis with a cuff, which is open for passage of the thumb and which is provided with stabilizing rods and with at least one tightening strap for fixing the orthosis on the wrist. The cuff has two adjacent thumb openings for receiving either the left or right thumb, wherein a central stabilizing rod extends between the thumb openings, and a lateral stabilizing rod extends along the outer side of each said opening in such a manner that the thumb openings are each located between the central stabilizing rod and the relevant lateral stabilizing rod. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100106066 | ANKLE JOINT ORTHESIS - The invention relates to an ankle orthosis comprising a U-shaped support stirrup made of a flexible material, the sides of which stirrup converge beneath the foot in a web projecting as a tab toward the metatarsus, extend past the bones, and are held together at their end regions by a fastening strap wrapping around the leg. The tab has a convexity, which presses against the cuboid bone of the foot due to a preloading of the tab. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100036303 | KNEE JOINT BANDAGE - A knee joint bandage made of elastic textile material having a profiled insert encompassing the kneecap in a recess, the insert being covered by an overlay fastened to the textile material. Within the profile insert is a flexible, non-expandable tensioning member for connecting the regions of the kneecap poles on the fibula side in an arc around the kneecap wherein the distance between these regions increases during bending of the knee joint, the distance of the arc from the connecting line of the knee poles in decreased, and the tensioning member presses on the adjacent side of the kneecap, displacing the same medially and centering it. The bandage is provided with a flexible tensioning band, which partially covers the kneecap in its peripheral area relative to the tensioning member, the tensioning band substantially extends in the direction between the kneecap poles such that it counteracts a lifting of the kneecap. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20090306570 | TUBULAR COMPRESSION BANDAGE - The invention relates to a tubular compression bandage made of a textile hosiery which is largely inelastic laterally to the longitudinal direction and is elastic in the longitudinal direction, and which is adapted in tubular form to the contours of the limb in such a way that, when the bandage is applied, it snugly surrounds the limb, the bandage being divided by at least one closure running in the longitudinal direction, such that, when the closure is open, the bandage is applicable to the limb, and when the closure is closed, the bandage firmly surrounds the limb. The bandage material is designed by an elastic, porous knitted fabric having incorporated, circumferential inelastic tension threads for forming a lateral inelasticity, while maintaining the longitudinal elasticity, and the bandage is provided with a window which is held closed or completely or partially open by a textile cover which is made of longitudinally and laterally elastic material and is adapted to the window. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20090216164 | ORTHOSIS FOR CORRECTING THE POSITION OF A BODY JOINT - An orthosis including arms held in place on body parts by a respective fastening member and interconnected by a pivot joint adjacent to a body joint. For bending of the body parts required during normal movement, the pivot joint is formed by a central adjusting ring bordered by both arms. One arm includes an axle ring which is coaxial to the adjusting ring. The other arm includes a ring bearing, which is eccentric to the axle ring. The ring bearing is pivotable with respect to a rotational plane of the axle ring by rotating the adjusting ring in such a way and at such an angle that the arm, supported by the ring bearing in conjunction with the body part retained by it, assumes a pivoting position of this body part depending on the rotation angle of the adjusting ring in relation to the arm connected to the axle ring. | 08-27-2009 |
