Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for moving the upper ankle, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Devices of the type mentioned are used for passive and active joint mobilization. Most of these are devices that were designed without taking into account the special features of the upper ankle.
- the situation in the upper ankle is a very special one.
- the tibia and fibula extend to the clearly visible and palpable ankles (malleolus lateralis et medialis).
- the role (trochlea) of the anklebone (talus) moves in this Malleolen fork. It is therefore a hinge joint that allows both extension (dorsiflexion) and flexion (plantar flexion) of the foot against the lower leg and vice versa about an axis running across the inner and outer ankle and referred to as the upper ankle joint (articulatio talocruralis) becomes.
- a movement amplitude of a total of 70 ° - 80 ° is possible, whereby it must be taken into account that the movement deflection considerable individual, e.g. training-related fluctuations, and becomes significantly smaller with increasing age and with joint-stiffening processes.
- the upper ankle is enclosed in a capsule that is relatively thin and limp at the front and back, while it is reinforced on both sides by strong ligaments. Upper ankle movements that occur when walking, running, jumping, etc. take place, additionally affect the venous return flow.
- the upper ankle is of particular importance. In its environment there are dense skin vein networks and, in addition, numerous blood vessels in the fat body between the Achilles tendon and Malleolenkabel, which - like a sponge - are filled distally with every movement in the articulatio talocruralis or squeezed outwards.
- the maximum torque that can occur in the device when the pedals are at a standstill as a result of the end of a possible extension or flexion from the reversing movement must be significantly below the pain limit and must not increase when the two foot pedals or one of them is at a standstill.
- the selected maximum torque should represent a break point in the almost straight-line characteristic curve in the force / displacement diagram, in the sense that after this break point is exceeded, the characteristic curve continues essentially flat.
- a foot movement device according to the preamble of claim 1 is known, in which the drive shaft of the motor is connected to the pedal shaft by means of a resiliently contractible connecting linkage.
- This fulfills the requirement that when a foot pedal is forced to stand still as a result of reaching an end position in the range of motion of the upper ankle, the motor shaft can continue to run.
- the second much more important requirement that when a foot pedal is at a standstill the maximum torque when the motor shaft continues to run must not be met.
- the coil springs disclosed are conventional type, so that even after reaching an end position in the range of motion of an upper ankle, the characteristic curve of these helical springs continues to rise in a straight line and thus the force acting on the ankle further increases.
- the device Since patients waking up from anesthesia are often very restless, the device should be easy to attach to any bed.
- the foot pedals can also be adjusted to the left and to the right in the attachment pivot point.
- the device according to the invention From the basic position, in which the foot is at a right angle to the lower leg, the device according to the invention provides a lifting (dorsiflexion) of 20 ° and a lowering (plantar flexion) of 40 * , ie a swivel range of 60 ° in total. If the patient's right foot (starting from said basic position) allows a dorsiflexion of 6 ° and the left foot allows a plantar flexion of 32 °, then the right foot pedal stops at "6 ° lifting" and the left pedal swivels until "32 ° Lower "further.
- the right foot with the specified maximum torque remains as pressure on the sole of the foot, and the left foot with the same maximum torque loaded as a train on the instep.
- the motor shaft that continues rotates the pedals by reversing the crank movement.
- the individual end position of the plantar flexion e.g. 28 °
- a tensile or compressive load on the instep and sole is guaranteed with the specified maximum torque. According to the invention, this maximum value can never be exceeded.
- the device should be convertible in a few simple steps for a single leg, either for the left or the right. This applies e.g. for accident injuries with leg surgery and for some orthopedic surgery on one leg.
- the foot pedal that is not in use must not swivel, and therefore it is best not to be present.
- the invention has for its object to provide a device for moving the upper ankle, which overcomes the disadvantages described and in particular the pivoting range of the two foot pedals automatically the possible, possibly limited by illness or age and often also left and right different, movement adjusts the circumference of the patient's feet.
- the invention achieves the stated object with a device which has the features of claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are characterized in the dependent claims.
- the advantage of the device according to the invention is, above all, that when a foot pedal is forced to stand still due to reaching an end position in the range of motion of a foot, the torque on the stationary foot pedal shaft reaches a predetermined maximum value and remains almost constant while the motor shaft continues to run, so that the foot In its possible end position, both in the plantar flexion and in the dorsiflexion, the predetermined, almost constant torque remains applied, irrespective of the angle at which a foot pedal comes to a standstill in the swivel range.

- the shafts la, lb mounted within the housing 7 are also provided with an adapter plate 21a, 21b at the housing outlet and can be connected to one another by means of a knurled screw 28 with the adapters 27a, 27b of the angle rails 23a, 23b in three positions defined by the above-mentioned index bolts. so that two further zero positions can be set in addition to the main zero position (hatched positions in FIG. 4).
- the motor shaft 4 is driven by means of a geared motor 3 controlled by the power pack 34 via the clutch 31 and the bevel gear 32.
- a push rod 51a or 51b designed as a hollow rod is fastened via a mandrel 35a or 35b.
- the push rod 51a or 51b engages at its other end - again eccentrically - on the mandrel 22a or 22b of an adapter plate 21a, 21b connected to the foot pedal shaft la or lb in a rotationally fixed manner.
- the push rod 51b is in the top dead center position, which corresponds to the plantar flexion of approximately 40 °.
- the push rod 51a is in the bottom dead center position, which corresponds to the dorsiflexion of approximately 20 °.
- two disk spring assemblies 52, 58 with opposing spring travel are arranged in the push rod 51a, which are preloaded in the characteristic curve shortly before the break point.
- the plate spring assembly 58 is arranged in the chamber 57 for the compression stage and the plate spring assembly 52 is arranged in the chamber 53 for the rebound stage.
- the plate spring assembly 58 is connected to the pressure anchor 56, the plate spring assembly 52 with the tie rod 54.
- Tie rods 54 and 56 both have a bearing eye 55 at their free end, into which the mandrels 22a and 35a can engage.
- the push rod is in the rest position for forces within the range of 0-220 Newtons. This value corresponds to a disengagement torque of approx. 5 Nm.
- the plate spring assembly 52 is mounted on the sleeve 62 with an end plate 65.
- the tie rod 54 is slidably disposed within the sleeve 62 and abuts the ring 64 with its disk 61.
- the plate spring assembly 58 is mounted on the hollow pressure anchor 56 with washer 63 and also abuts the ring 64.
- the upper picture in FIG. 6 shows how, in the case of expansion with a tensile force of 220 N or greater, the plate spring assembly 52 through the tie rod 54 slidably arranged in the sleeve 62, by means of its firmly connected disk 61, which abuts the sleeve 62, is compressed. Since the tie rod 54 is slidably mounted within the hollow tie rod 56, no forces are exerted on the plate spring assembly 58. The expansion of the push rod 51a is 8 mm in the dimensions provided.
- the lower picture in FIG. 6 shows how, in the case of compression with a compressive force of 220 N or greater, the plate spring assembly 58 is firmly connected to the tie rod 56 Disk 63 is compressed while the plate spring assembly 52 remains unloaded.
- the compression of the push rod 51a is also 8 mm given the dimensions provided.

- the thickly drawn characteristic curve of the disc spring is preloaded just before its break point.
- the essentially constant maximum torque when the foot pedal shaft la; lb is forced to stand still lies on the essentially flat characteristic curve after the break point.
- the means 8 for torque limitation consists of two hydraulic cylinders 83 connected to one another in the axial direction, with opposite stroke movement of the pistons 85 and lateral hydraulic cylinders 83, each with an accumulator 84.
- the two pistons 85 are in an end position and the piston rods 86 are each connected to the adapter plates 2la, 21b of the foot pedal shafts 6a, 6b and the eccentric discs 33a, 33b of the motor shaft 4 via the mandrels 22a, 22a and 35a, 35b.
- the two surfaces h and A 2 of the pistons 85 are of the same size.
- the gas pressure of the accumulators 84 corresponds to the selectable maximum value for the torque to be transmitted.
- the torque-limiting means 9 consists of two pneumatic cylinders 93 connected to one another in the axial direction and equipped with counter-stroke movement of the pistons 95 and gas-filled displacement 97.
- the two pistons 95 are in an end position and the piston rods 96 are connected via the mandrels 22a, 22b and 35a, 35b to the adapter plates 21a, 21b of the foot pedal shafts la, lb and the eccentric discs 33a, 33b of the motor shaft 4.
- the two surfaces A- ⁇ and A 2 of the piston 95 are of equal size.
- the gas pressure in the displacement 97 corresponds to the selectable maximum value for the torque to be transmitted.
- the torque-limiting means can also consist of suitable electronics.
- two motors instead of a single motor, since the range of motion of the two feet should be controlled independently of one another.
- two direct drives are provided in the ankle axis itself.
- Electric motors with position or position detection, in particular stepper motors or servo motors, are suitable as motors.
- the two motors must be able to communicate with each other (synchronization) in order not to get out of step, i.e. a real 2-axis card is required, which regulates or controls the two motors.
- the basic mode of operation for electronic torque limitation can be divided into the following steps:
- the two motors move to their respective limit switches for reference.
- This step can be carried out when using an absolute position measuring system (e.g. potentiometer or resolver) omitted.
- an absolute position measuring system e.g. potentiometer or resolver
- relative displacement measuring systems e.g. encoders
- the electronics control the amplifiers of the two motors with slow speed and low torque.
- the individual limit values for the patient's range of motion are recorded via the power increase (current and / or voltage) or the following error of the two motors and stored in the electronics.
- the two motors run at full power within the measured angular range in reversing operation, the synchronization being able to be achieved either via different angular velocities on the left and right side of the foot or through different pause lengths in the reverse positions (programming).
- FIG. 10 A further embodiment of the invention is described in FIG. 10, in which the means for torque limitation comprise a hydraulic cylinder 10 with a continuous piston rod 103 and a rectifier circuit 104 on the side, consisting of four check valves 105 and a controllable pressure relief valve 106.
- the continuous piston rod 103 on one side and the housing 107 on the other side are provided with a swivel eye 108 for connection to the Adapter plates 21a, 21b by means of the mandrels 22a and 35a, the set spring pressure of the pressure relief valve 106 corresponding to the selectable maximum value for the transmitted torque.
