The present invention provides improved hardenable orthopaedic supports and methods of making the same. One embodiment provides a support (10) which includes a blank made of a permeable, flexible material and including a structural region (20), impregnated with a hardenable material and a peripheral region (22) which will remain flexible after the hardenable material is hardened. Another embodiment provides a method of manufacturing an orthopaedic support in which a permeable, flexible material is positioned adjacent a recess of a molding element; the flexible material is contacted with a hardenable material; and the hardenable material is placed under pressure in the molding element to impregnate the section of the flexible material with the hardenable material.

La présente invention concerne des supports orthopédiques durcissables ainsi que leurs procédés de fabrication. Un mode de réalisation concerne un support comprenant une ébauche constituée d'une matière souple perméable, et comportant une zone structurale imprégnée d'une matière durcissable et une zone périphérique demeurant souple après le durcissement de la matière durcissable. Un autre mode de réalisation concerne un procédé destiné à fabriquer un support orthopédique et consistant à disposer une matière souple perméable au voisinage d'un évidement d'un élément de moulage, à mettre cette matière souple en contact avec une matière durcissable, puis à mettre la matière durcissable sous pression dans l'élément de moulage en vue d'imprégner la partie de matière souple de cette matière durcissable.
