Patent number: 12268624Abstract: The invention is a knee ankle foot orthosis for controlling and preventing knee buckling through an innovative stirrup that is fixedly connected at its proximal section to the anterior inferior segment of the orthosis' calf engaging section. The stirrup has a twisted section between its proximal and distal sections so the proximal section is in a coronal plane while the distal section is in a sagittal plane and connects to the lateral side of the footplate. The stirrup's proximal section does not rotate relative to the calf engaging section while the distal end of the stirrup bends relative to the proximal end of the stirrup, thereby storing energy like a leaf spring when it is bent. The bent stirrup applies a posterior directed force in the sagittal plane to the orthosis' calf engaging segment to prevent knee buckling during the mid-stance segment of the gait cycle.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2022Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Inventor: Dennis James Richards
