An early concept for a prosthetic knee/elbow joint with a printable flexible hinge using the elastic properties of Filaflex from Recreus.
.
This joint has the advantages of being self straightening, tough and durable with shock absorption properties built in.
.
The socket takes the principles from the custom socket cups that I designed/printed recently which are currently undergoing tests for e-NABLE. Therefore we could have a printable or castable flexible liner that conforms to the users residual limb.
