INTELLIGENT KNEE JOINT

A proximity sensor within the microprocessor detects the time taken for each walking cycle, using knee joint flexion data. The microprocessor then signals a stepping motor within the unit which in turn activates the needle valve of the pneumatic cylinder causing it to adjust to the patients walking speed. Initial programming involves setting the cylinder to 3 different walking speeds (slow, normal, and fast) for the individual user. This then produces a range of 10 different walking speeds within their particular program to allow smooth transition within a wide cadence range.
This knee is tested according to ISO 10328.
