Hybrid Prosthetic Knee Joint

The Hybrid knee combines a rotary hydraulic damper for the stance phase with a microprocessor-controlled pneumatic cylinder for cadence-responsive swing control.

  • Rotary hydraulic damper lets the knee flex and yield at a controlled, user-adjustable rate during stance
  • Microprocessor-controlled pneumatic cylinder provides cadence-responsive swing control
  • At heel strike the MRS system detects the ground reaction force and initiates hydraulic resistance to flexion
  • As weight passes through the toes the MRS switches off hydraulic resistance to allow transition into swing
  • A proximity sensor measures each walking cycle from knee flexion data; the microprocessor drives a stepping motor that adjusts the pneumatic needle valve to the patient’s walking speed
  • Flexion angle 140 degrees
  • Aluminum alloy 7075, stainless steel and carbon fiber frame; component weight 1375 g
  • Tested to ISO 10328
  • Warranty 36 months
  • Pair with a Roadwalking foot for best above knee prosthesis performance
