CA 2550027

The disclosed knee brace hinges enable a knee brace including the hinges to track the natural motion of the brace wearer's knee while restraining the knee from harmful motions. In certain embodiments, in a first range of motion the hinges have only one degree of freedom, rotation about a fixed axis. In a second range of motion, the hinges have at least two degrees of freedom, rotation and translation.

L'invention concerne des charnières d'une attelle de genou. Grâce à ces charnière, une attelle de genou peut suivre le mouvement naturel du genou de la personne portant l'attelle tout en protégeant le genou de tout mouvement dommageable. Dans certains modes de réalisation, les articulations ont, dans une première série de mouvements, seulement un degré de liberté, à savoir la rotation autour d'un axe fixe et, dans une deuxième série de mouvements, les articulations ont au moins deux degrés de liberté, à savoir rotation et translation.
