24838-49 ABSTRACT A dampener for a load bearing arthro-prosthesis is made up of a cradle with a base zone of spherical shape to be inter- posed between the presser, head and the cotyle of the prosthesis. The cradle has a stepped cross-section, in the meridian plane, with a thin wall, a first central step rising from the bottom of the cradle and more circumferentially spaced apart steps parallel to and coaxial with the central step and having lesser height than the first step. In this way, it is possible to obtain, with a non-compressible material, a variable rigidity of the cradle when subjected to loads applied to the prosthesis as well as maximum deformation increment at the lowest values of the load (approx. 100 kg).
