  • Publication number: 20230157848
    Abstract: An orthopedic device has a base and a pivot element which is mounted in an articulated manner on the base. The pivot element is displaceable via a force transmission element connected to a drive from a starting position into a pivoting position that is pivoted in relation to the starting position. The force transmission element permits passive pivoting of the pivot element in the direction of the pivoting position without activation of the drive. A spring element designed for counteracting passive pivoting of the pivot element into the pivoting position is assigned to the pivot element. The spring element is formed separately from the force transmission element, and the force transmission element blocks deformation of the spring element during pivoting by the drive into the respective pivoting position.

  • Patent number: 11631991
    Abstract: A method for distributing a limited amount of electrical power from an energy source to a plurality of electrical loads includes sensing and/or encoding the available electrical power of the energy source, monitoring a power balance of the loads by sensing and/or encoding the drawn power in the individual loads, and reducing the drawn power in the loads if the available power is not sufficient for supplying all the loads with the required power.
