The finding "is aimed at a permanent footing, consisting from an actual hot part and the one connected to it EhÖchelSolz ♦ öle aims to create a new type of oil Connection of the two parts, namely the Ihöckelholz to create with the "Faßte !!" for the handicapped the air tread according to his wishes and needs can adapt, and that with a tight connection between the two Ropes still have a good mobility of the Ehöchelholz compared to the penitential part is given, in particular a twisting of the two parts to a certain extent

is possible; so that the handicapped the natural Gait; follows »

The artificial foot according to the invention is characterized in that the mobility of the foot part in relation to the Knöehelholz is adjustable. For this purpose is between An elastic layer is attached to the foot part and ankle wood. arranges and the foot part with the ankle wood through flexible cable or connected by a / flexible rod, soft both - file tightly together "braced" the degree the tension can be regulated so that the disabled ge according to his wishes a hard or A smoother appearance «The flexible cable also enables all the necessary mobility Sightings. In particular, there is also a movement of the Ehöehelholz possible in relation to the artificial foot relative to each other around the axis of the jib.

In this case preferably the flexible cable ^e ^ - ⁿ wire cable, one end of which is subjected to train so that the Eaöehelhoiz is pressed onto the elastic layer. Due to the elasticity of the flexible cable or the flexible rod, the ünöuhelholz can move in all directions with respect to the foot part, while it is still tightly connected to the foot part. Therefore continues to _see that the elastic layer is only subjected to pressure of advantage *

As an elastic layer between ankle wood and foot section preferably a rubber or foam pad or * Layer. So that a twisting of the foot part in relation to the Enöchelholz can not enter, preferably the Enöchelholz has a rabbit, which in a corresponding transverse hat engages in the elastic layer

In the drawing, two exemplary embodiments are shown; they show the invention Artiuss in the cut from the side.

Bas Knöehelholz bears the reference number 1; (3 pig »l) between the foot part 2 and this knee wood 1 is an elastic layer, preferably made of rubber 5 arranged. Both parts are clamped together * A flexible one arranged in the longitudinal plane is used for this purpose Cable 4, which is preferably a wire cable. Instead of a rod, for example a plastic rod, can also be used for this wire cable. At the At the end of the flexible wire cable a tensioning device 5 is arranged, which claims the cable on tension, whereby the Knöehelholz 1 on the elastic layer is pressed.

The jig consists essentially of one under the head 6 of the flexible wire cable 4-gripping plate 7 »which is held by screws 8. The screws 8 are supported on a single surface 9 attached within the knuckle wood. When turning the screws 8 therefore the - ^ abel% is stressed on train and both parts, namely 1 and 2 clamped together.

So that a twisting of the foot part 2 in relation to the Knuckle wood 1 around the kneeling axis cannot take place, the Knöehelholz is provided with a base Io that can be converted into a corresponding But II of the elastic layer 3 engages.

Since springs are avoided in this embodiment, this is also unpleasant. Qaitschen when the Not to fear artificial foot by the handicapped "

In Fig, 2 another embodiment is shown '

differs from that according to KLg. 1 by the type of clamping device "

The "flexible wire cable 12 has the head piece 16 at the top, which rests on the ring surface 17 of the enechel wood * The lower end of the wire cable is with a Thread 14- provided on which the mat 15 is screwed will. This means that both parts can be clamped with the desired contact pressure.

To prevent the wire cable from rotating, the guide element 13 is attached, which is in a slot 19 is enough

With 18 holes are designated in which a special key for the matter intervenes.
