However, in the conventional prosthetic leg shown in Figure 4, the lower leg (A) and foot (B) are connected by a joint (C), and a soft elastic piece (E) is placed in the gap formed at the joint. ° Even if the interposition is fixed and the elevation angle is changed, it will return to the normal position, and a wedge is driven in to fix it at the desired elevation angle.
It is also difficult to drive the wedge by yourself.

この発明は足部の俯仰角度調節の従来の問題点を解決し
たもので、その目的と、するところは足部の俯仰角度を
随時簡単に、且つ微細に調節し得る義足とするにある。
This invention solves the conventional problem of adjusting the elevation angle of the foot, and its purpose is to provide a prosthetic leg that can easily and finely adjust the elevation angle of the foot at any time.

12.13 is a fixed base that supports the upper and lower ends of the screw shaft 7;
Reference numeral 4 designates a column that connects both fixed bases, and 15 represents a mounting portion of the foot mounting base 10 that hangs down from the lower fixed base 13. 16 is a foot portion. .

This invention has the above-mentioned structure, and by operating a switch attached to the thigh socket, the deceleration motor rotates forward and backward, and when the connected screw shaft rotates, the nut moves up and down to close one end of the link. As you press down or pull up, the tip of the foot changes to the angle of depression or elevation, and when you reach the desired angle, return the switch to the neutral position and it will be fixed at that angle. It is much easier to operate than conventional prosthetic legs, and it is easier to operate when sleeping, sitting, or wearing high-heeled shoes.
