Patent

CA 2346385

The invention concerns a device (10) comprising a shape (14) adapted to receive an orthesis slipped onto it, said shape comprising two elongated branches (16, 18), spacing members (30, 32) co-operating with the opposite ends (26, 28) of the branches to space apart the latter transversely at their largest dimension, means controlling the spacing members, for spacing apart the branches in a gradual and controlled mutually spacing motion, and sensors (40) distributed over the length of at least one of the branches, for measuring the force locally applied on the branch by the orthesis at the site of the respective sensor based on a component perpendicular to the profile of the branch.

Ce dispositif (10) comporte: une forme (14) apte à recevoir une orthèse enfilée dessus, cette forme comprenant deux branches allongées (16, 18); des moyens écarteurs (30, 32), coopérant avec des extrémités en vis-à-vis (26, 28) des branches pour eloigner celles-ci transversalement à leur plus grande dimension; des moyens de commande des moyens écarteurs, propres à éloigner les branches dans un mouvement d'écartement mutuel, progressif et contrôlé; et des capteurs (40) répartis sur la longueur de l'une au moins des branches, propres à mesurer la force appliquée localement sur la branche par l'orthèse à l'endroit du capteur respectif selon une composante perpendiculaire au profil de la branche.
