  • Publication number: 20210330027
    Abstract: A running shoe sole has an elastically deformable supporting sole, which has a rear and front foot section connected to each other via a coupling section. An elastically deformable supporting device is arranged on the supporting sole and carries an outsole covering. The supporting device includes a rear foot part which engages around the rear foot section of the supporting sole in a U shape and a front foot part having two limbs which are arranged on mutually opposite lateral edge sections of the front foot section. The rear and front foot part each have a supporting surface, which runs obliquely inward toward the underside of the shoe sole or is curved, preferably convex, and on which the supporting sole rests and is supported in the lateral direction. The rear and front foot parts are made from a highly responsive thermoplastic elastomer of 45-50 Asker Shore C density.

  • Patent number: 9980846
    Abstract: An orthosis for stabilizing a joint has a joint rail having a first and a second rail portion which can be pivoted relative to each other about a joint axle. The orthosis has a pressure member which can be adjusted by a relative pivoting of the two rail portions about the joint axle in the direction towards and counter to the joint to be stabilized. One of the two rail portions has a cam disc, and the other of the two rail portions has a rotor which is guided on the cam disc, wherein the cam disc or the rotor is axially fixed in position on the correction pad.

  • Patent number: 8435197
    Abstract: In a knee-joint orthosis for guiding the patella of a patient during the transition from an extended position to a flexed position of the knee joint and vice versa, with a fastening means (I) for fastening to a thigh and a lower leg, with at least one laterally arranged stabilizing element that takes up a flexion of the knee joint and bears on the thigh and lower leg, and with a dimensionally stable guide element (6) that can be held in position by an arrangement of tensioning straps and is arranged to bear laterally on the patella by way of a lateral base part (7) from which medially directed attachments (8) extend proximally and distally of the patella and are secured to strap sections (10, 12) on the orthosis in the area of the thigh and of the lower leg in such a way that a medial tensile force is exerted on the attachments (8).
