Patent number: 7001349Abstract: An orthopedic splint, which, as part of an orthosis, is intended to bear on a part of the body, can be used with different configurations. The splint consists of two round rods (2, 3) which are arranged approximately in a plane (9) and whose ends on both sides are inserted rotatably in round seats (8) of two endpieces (1, 4). Both round rods (2, 3) are designed with at least one angled part (5, 6) in the plane (9). The round seats (8) of an endpiece (1, 4) form an acute angle with respect to one another and are designed with an excess dimension relative to the inserted end so that, by rotating the round rods (2, 3), different relative angles extending out from the plane (9) can be set between the endpieces (1, 4) in two end settings.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2004Date of Patent: February 21, 2006Assignee: Otto Bock Healthcare GmbHInventors: Matthias Vollbrecht, Helmut Wagner, Klaus Lidolt, Andreas Mühlenberend
