  • Patent number: 7087031
    Abstract: A perfected jointed rod for a hip support comprises at least one first element (15), suitable for being associated with a pelvis grip (12), and a second element (16), suitable for being associated with a thigh grip (13), reciprocally joined by at least one hinge (19) for a rotating movement in a first flexure-extension plane and by at least one articulated joint (20) for movement in a second abduction-adduction plane, wherein the articulated joint (20) is connected to an activating device which causes a movement of the second element (16) of the jointed rod (10) in the abduction-adduction plane with the rotation of said second element (16) with respect to the first element (15).

  • Patent number: 6494853
    Abstract: An improved hip support characterized by a pelvis harness connected by means of an articulated rod to a thigh harness. The pelvis harness includes a central belt connected to two containment elements of the head of a femur by means of an orientable connection, and being closable by means of closing elements. The orientable connection is made by means of at least one first plate associated to overlapping portions of the central belt and of each of the containment elements, which are clamped together by means of closing elements which can be dismantled. The first plate has rough parts in relief that penetrate inside the body of said pelvis harness so as to clamp the coupling.

  • Patent number: 6361513
    Abstract: An articulated rod (14) for a hip support (11) comprises a first element (22) designed to be associated to a pelvis harness (12), and a second element (28) designed to be associated to a thigh harness (16). The first element (22) and second element (28) are joined together by means of a hinge (30). The hinge (30) comprises a first plate (34) which is fixed to the first element (22) and has a face set against a corresponding face of an articulation plate (50), the first plate (34) and the articulation plate (50) being joined by means of a closing element (40) inserted in aligned through holes of the first plate (34) and of the articulation plate (50). In addition, the first plate (34) has holes (42) which are set along one portion of its own periphery and in which adjustment elements (44) can be inserted. The said adjustment elements (44) are designed to limit rotation of said articulation plate (50) with respect to the first plate (34).
