Abstract: A prosthetic socket liner. A liner of the prosthetic socket liner has an inner and outer surface, the inner surface configured to engage skin of a user's residual limb and the outer surface configured to engage a surface of a socket of a prosthesis. An air channel coupled to the liner and to a valve extends downwardly towards a closed end of the liner and is configured to transfer air between an outer surface of the liner and ambient air through the valve. In implementations the air channel is configured to channel air between an inside of a cavity and a location outside the cavity. A method of donning a socket of a prosthesis includes donning a liner of a prosthetic socket liner over a residual limb, opening a valve on the liner, inserting the liner into a socket of a prosthesis with the valve open, and closing the valve.

Abstract: A mechanism including a ratchet member mounted for movement in two opposite directions and a second member mounted adjacent the ratchet member, the second member responsive to predetermined pressure to engage the ratchet member to constrain movement thereof in one of the two opposite directions.

Abstract: A prosthetic leg component substantially encompasses the tibia or shin portion of the leg and is removably attached to any one of several available prefabricated prosthetic foot devices. Included is a substantially L-shaped member providing for efficient kinetic recoil energy about the ankle upon application of a given load on the device which allows for torsional replication about the tibia while simultaneously providing medial-lateral stability for the user.
