Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for limiting and/or damping foot movements via the ankle joint and a shoe for limiting and/or dampening foot movements via the ankle joint.
- the ankle joint orthosis shown therein requires a pressure-stable beam located on the medial side of the ankle joint to support the receptacle of the upper area, which is located between the upper area of the orthosis and the lower area of the orthosis and must be firmly connected to both areas.
- the beam must be designed in such a way that it transfers the tensile forces introduced into the upper area via the pull-out device on the lateral side back into the lower area as compressive forces on the medial side, without deforming or buckling. This ensures that the position is secured in the distal direction. However, the bar on the medial side of the foot continues to limit the ankle's range of motion.
- fixation for fixing the upper part to a lower leg instead of the aforementioned support between the upper and lower parts on the upper part.
- the fixation means that the upper part is supported from above on the ankle. Due to the support and fixation, these devices are heavy, have a relatively rigid structure and are not very comfortable to wear.
- the above-mentioned devices must be tailored to the dimensions of the wearer's lower leg. If individual components of the device are not in the intended position on the wearer's body when worn, this can reduce the protective effect of the device. In extreme cases of unsuitable positioning, the protective function may even fail completely. To date, this problem has been addressed by providing limiting devices of different sizes. But even with the same foot or shoe size, the thickness of the lower leg, ankle and foot varies significantly from person to person.
- the device can be used for wearers with comparatively thin feet if they are fitted to a “standard foot” with larger dimensions of the foot area, such as ankle circumference or ankle cross-section (area), lower leg circumference or lower leg cross-section (area), as well as height and thickness of the midfoot and forefoot. when worn, lie (too) loosely against the foot, so that in the event of a twisting of the ankle, the device, in particular the components of the device intended to limit the path or dampen the foot movement, such as tensile areas, straps, first align and tighten before any protective effect occurs .
- a “standard foot” with larger dimensions of the foot area, such as ankle circumference or ankle cross-section (area), lower leg circumference or lower leg cross-section (area), as well as height and thickness of the midfoot and forefoot.
- a protective effect with regard to, for example, an inversion angle and/or supination angle does not occur as intended, but only when there is an unintentionally large deflection from the neutral position.
- the components of the device that perform the protective function in particular tension-resistant bands, are already in tension or even when the foot is in a neutral position due to the large thickness of the foot with regard to, for example, an inversion angle and/or supination angle, their limiting and/or damping effect is already more likely to develop, so that the mobility of the foot around the ankle joint may be limited even during physiological movements, from which no injury is usually expected.
- the device can be individually tailored to each wearer.
- custom-made devices are comparatively expensive, which leads to high acquisition costs and a lot of effort, which means that such solutions are not accessible to the general public.
- a device for limiting and/or damping a foot movement via the ankle joint comprising a support arrangement for supporting on a lower leg and/or from proximally on the ankle joint, a holding arrangement for holding on a foot, preferably a plantar area of a foot, and at least one connection element which extends between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement and is connected to each of them.
- the connecting element is a force transmission connection between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement, through which forces can be transmitted between the holding arrangement and the support arrangement.
- the connection element is a connection band.
- the device further comprises a tightening arrangement for tightening the binding element, the tightening arrangement being configured such that the binding element can be changed between a released state and a tightened state between the holding arrangement and the support arrangement.
- the term “tightening” here means bringing the tension to tension or putting it under tension. Accordingly, the “tightened state” corresponds to a state in which the connecting element is in a prestressed state.
- the term “loosened” or “loosened state” is further defined as a state in which the connecting element is loose, i.e. without being subjected to a tensile stress.
- the connection element is displaceable on at least one of a connection to the support arrangement, preferably at least one of the first connection and/or the second connection, and a holding arrangement connection.
- the tightening arrangement accordingly provides the possibility of changing the length of the connecting element between its connection to the support arrangement and its holding arrangement connection to the holding arrangement, preferably between the first connection and the second connection to the support arrangement.
- the length of the connecting element between its connection to the support arrangement and its holding arrangement connection to the holding arrangement preferably between the first connection and the second connection, can be extended in such a way that the device can be attached to the foot in its intended position and /or can be relieved.
- connection element By “tightening” the connection element, preferably on or in the area of a connection to the support arrangement and/or a free end of the connection element, particularly preferably at or in the area of the first connection or the second connection, the length of the connection element between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement is shortened, preferably between the first connection and the second connection. If the connection element is initially loose in the loosened state after the device has been attached to the foot, this can be achieved by tightening the connection element or the associated shortening of the length of the connection element between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement, preferably between the first connection and the second connection Tightening takes place.
- the tightening arrangement can be used to put the connection element between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement, preferably between the first connection and the second connection, under tension, i.e. a tensile stress, preferably a tensile stress in a predetermined range or predetermined height, on the connection element be applied.
- a tensile stress preferably a tensile stress in a predetermined range or predetermined height
- the connection element is present in a tightened manner between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement, whereby it is preferably present in a tightened, therefore prestressed manner, between the first connection and the holding arrangement connection, and is in a tightened, therefore prestressed manner, between the holding arrangement connection and the second connection.
- the connecting element in tension or prestressed between the support arrangement and the holding arrangement.
- the device comprises a tightening arrangement for tightening the connection element, which is configured such that the connection element between the holding arrangement and the support arrangement can be changed between a loosened state and a tightened state
- a tightening arrangement for tightening the connection element which is configured such that the connection element between the holding arrangement and the support arrangement can be changed between a loosened state and a tightened state
- the connecting element can be brought into a predetermined state, in particular to an intended pretension, in an intended position of the foot, preferably a neutral position of the foot.
- the neutral position of the foot preferably corresponds to the zero position of the foot with regard to supination/pronation, inversion/eversion and/or plantar extension/dorsiflexion or with regard to their angular position.
- lateral, medial, posterior, anterior, proximal, distal, dorsal and plantar are to be understood as meaning that they correspond to the anatomical directional designations when the device or shoe is correctly put on a foot.

- distal points or is located away from the center of the body.
- a “heel area” includes an area of the device or a shoe in which a heel of a foot is received when worn.
- the heel area therefore corresponds to a rear or posterior side of the device in terms of the (topographic) anatomy of the human body. Consequently, the heel area of the shoe faces an anterior side.
- the term “ankle joint” includes the upper and lower ankle joints and correspondingly the axis of movement of the upper ankle joint, which essentially enables plantar flexion and dorsiflexion of the foot, and the axis of movement of the lower ankle joint, which essentially enables inversion and eversion, as well as supination, Adduction and plantar flexion, abduction and dorsiflexion.
- ankle here also refers to the shape of the joint socket, the malleolar fork of the upper ankle joint. Consequently, the term “ankle” in the present case includes the outer malleolus, which is formed by the development of the lateral malleolus, and the inner malleolus, which is formed by the development of the medial malleolus. Due to the formation of the malleola fork as a joint socket, the ankle has a larger cross-sectional area in relation to the proximal-distal direction compared to the section of the lower leg that is located above, and therefore proximally. The circumference of the ankle is therefore larger compared to the proximal section.
- the connecting element is connected to a first connection and a second connection to the support arrangement and is connected to a holding arrangement connection to the holding arrangement between the first and second connections.

- Tensile-stiff materials in the sense of this document can have a certain initial elongation capacity and preferably stiffen above a certain elongation limit or yield limit in such a way that the elongation capacity is then greatly reduced in comparison to the initial elongation capacity or elongation capacity.
- a textile braid made of threads of a tensile-stiff material can be used as a tensile-resistant band, whereby when a tensile load is placed on the textile braid, the threads of the textile braid initially experience an increasing alignment in the longitudinal extent of the textile braid, so that initially a high initial stretch capacity is provided by the alignment of the threads, and after the threads have been aligned essentially in the direction of force flow, the band has a tensile-resistant structure.
- the material can also exhibit essentially immediately tensile-resistant behavior.
- the connecting element is designed to be tensile in the longitudinal extent is to be understood in this case in such a way that the connecting element can transmit tensile forces in the longitudinal direction at least in a tightened or stretched state, essentially without experiencing any stretching or only a slight one when tensile forces are in a predetermined range To experience stretching, analogous to a seat belt in vehicles.

This enables the wearer of the device in particular to tighten or re-tighten the connecting element even while wearing the device, for example if the device is worn under a shoe or is part of a shoe.
- the tightening arrangement is preferably configured to tighten the connection element between the first connection and the second connection.
- the first connection can optionally be a lateral connection, i.e. a connection arranged on the lateral side of the device, and/or the second connection can be a medial connection, i.e. a connection arranged on the lateral side of the device.

- the holding arrangement connection preferably comprises an eyelet or is preferably designed as an eyelet through which the connection element extends, in other words through which it runs.
- the holding arrangement connection can optionally be designed as a band that is attached to the holding arrangement at both ends and thereby forms a loop or the eyelet. This allows the connecting element to move relative to the holding arrangement.
- the tightening arrangement comprises a deflection eyelet through which the connection element runs on the first connection or the second connection, wherein the connection element, in relation to the deflection eyelet, comprises a fastening section located opposite the holding arrangement connection for fastening the connection element to the support arrangement.

- the term “eyelet” or “deflection eyelet” generally includes an opening, for example provided in the form of a ring, a loop, a hole or a hook.
- the deflection eye or the connection comprising it is attached to the support arrangement at a predetermined position.
- the connection element between the holding arrangement connection and the connection comprising the deflection eyelet is oriented in a predetermined direction in the tightened state, so that the direction of force transmission runs as intended.

- the tab and the fastening section are arranged such that they overlap in the tightened state, preferably overlap substantially in the circumferential direction.
- one of the tab and the fastening section can be arranged above the other of the tab and the fastening section in the tightened state in which the device is attached closed to the foot of the wearer, i.e. the tab above the fastening section or vice versa.
- the holding forces that arise when carrying the device are therefore essentially on a line of force. Consequently, they essentially do not cause any moments otherwise acting radially to the longitudinal axis of the lower leg on the support arrangement, which could result in a displacement and/or rotation of the support arrangement on the lower extremity of the wearer due to the different lines of force.

It additionally includes a damping element 6, which is integrated into the connection element 4 between the first connection 21 and the holding arrangement connection 31.
- the structure of the damping element 6 can be found in DE 10 2018 131 457 A1, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- the damping element 6 comprises a receptacle 60 in which a force transmission body 61 is held movably in the longitudinal direction 62 relative to the receptacle 60. In other words, the force transmission body 61 can telescope out of the receptacle 60 and into the receptacle 60.
- the damping element 6 has a reset unit, not shown here, for restoring the damping element 6 to a retracted position.
- the tightening arrangement 5 is configured in such a way that by tightening the connecting element 4 as described with regard to FIG. 1, the damping element 6 can be brought into a predetermined state in the tightened state of the connecting element 4, preferably comprising a predetermined length and/or a predetermined preload.
- the tightened state of the connecting element 4 can be seen when the force transmission body 61 protrudes from the receptacle 60 with a predetermined length 63.
- the length 63 can be indicated by a marking on the force transmission body 61.
- the damping element 4 is designed as an adaptive damping element 6, so that a relative movement between the support arrangement 2 and the holding arrangement 3 is damped adaptively, in the present case depending on the speed and acceleration.
- the damping element 6 is provided. When moving at moderate speeds or accelerations, almost unhindered mobility of the ankle joint can be provided. An inversion occurs at high speeds and/or Accelerations at which there is a risk of injury to the ligamentous system of the ankle joint, the damping element 6 dampens and/or even blocks the inversion movement and an injury is avoided.
- the damping element 6 or its previously described effect only occurs during inversion movements which lie beyond the neutral position (inversion angle of 0°) in the inversion direction.
- the device 1 according to Figure 1 is designed as a completely separate device 1, which develops its protective effect due to its structure. It is not necessary that a person wearing the device 1 has to put a shoe over the device 1 to achieve the aforementioned protective effect.

- the point at which the connecting element 4 is deflected in the eyelet 32 shifts according to the extent of the movement.
- the lengths of the first arm 43 and the second arm 44 change slightly. This slight change is compensated for by a slight sliding of the connecting element 4 in the eyelet 32, so that any wrinkles or pressure points that arise on the skin are avoided with a tight connection.
- the first connection 21 is arranged on the lateral side L and the second connection 22 is arranged on the medial side M.
- Forces introduced into the support arrangement by the connections 21, 22 via the connection element 4 are consequently introduced into the lower leg 112 and/or the proximal part of the ankle 114 in the sense of a line load which extends posteriorly between the connections along the support arrangement 2.
- the tightening arrangement 5 comprises a deflection eyelet 54, through which the connecting element 4 runs on the medial second connection 22 and is deflected again towards the lateral side L in the tightened state.
- the connection element 4 includes, in relation to the deflection eyelet 54 opposite the holding arrangement connection 31, a fastening section 42 for fastening the free end 41 of the connection element 4 to an adhesive section 25 of the support arrangement 2.
- the fastening section 42 and the adhesive section 25 are designed as a Velcro fastener.
- connection element 4 By tightening the connecting element 4 by tightening it on its fastening section 42, deflecting it over the deflection eyelet 54 and fastening the fastening section 42 laterally of the deflection eyelet 54, the connection element can be put into the tightened state.
- a fixation of the support arrangement 2 on the lower leg 112 and/or ankle 114 can also be provided.

- the tab 23 or the support arrangement 2 comprises an opening 28 at the foot of the tab 23, through which the fastening section 42 of the connecting element 4 can be inserted.
- the device 1 is shown in a released state of the connection element 4.
- the free end 41 of the connecting element 4 is optionally not threaded through the opening 28. Since the free end 41 is detached from the support arrangement 2, the connection element 4 can slide through the deflection eyelet 54 and the eyelet 32 in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the connection element 4. Consequently, an expansion of the device 1 or the stocking 7 when the device 1 is put on the wearer's foot, as indicated in Figure 10 by the hands and the arrows laterally and medially of the device 1, is not limited by the connecting element 4.
- Figure 12 shows schematically a lateral side view of the device 1 from Figure 10, with the connecting element 4 in the tightened state.
- the free end 41 or the fastening section 42 is releasably fastened to the support arrangement 2 on the lateral side L.
- the connecting element 4 is in the neutral position of the foot shown in FIG. 12 with a pretension in the longitudinal extent, which comprises a predetermined height.
- the support arrangement 2 can be changed back to the loosened state of the connecting element 4 by loosening the fastening section 42.
- the tightening arrangement includes at least the eyelet 32, the deflection eyelet 54 and the fastening section 42.
- FIG. 13 shows schematically a further perspective side view of the device 1 from FIG substantially opposite directions, here in a substantially lateral and a substantially medial direction, and the tab 23 and the free end 41 are fastened to the support arrangement 2, held under tension.
- Figure 14 shows schematically a further perspective side view of the device 1 from Figure 10.
- the wearer has also put on a shoe 100, which he has pulled over the device 1.
- the connecting element 4 can be re-tightened or re-tightened by loosening the free end 41 and the tab 23 from the support arrangement 2 and pulling the aforementioned again as described with regard to Figure 13.
- FIG. 15 schematically shows a perspective side view of a further device 1 for limiting and/or damping a foot movement via the ankle joint.
- the basic structure of the device 1 essentially corresponds to that of FIG. 6.
- the embodiment according to FIG. 6 the embodiment according to FIG.

- the fastening section 42 and the Adhesive section 25 optionally arranged at least partially medially on the posterior side.
- the fastening section 42 and the adhesive section 25 have correspondingly designed Velcro areas, which together form a Velcro fastener when connected to one another, so that the releasable fastening of the free end 41 of the connecting element 4 is formed.
- connection element 4 is therefore supported via the second arm 44 on the medial side M and on the posterior side on the support arrangement 2 and via this on the lower leg 110 and / or ankle 114 of the wearer of the device 1 and is in terms of its position by the Velcro fastener fixed to the support arrangement 2. According to this embodiment, this represents the second connection 22.
- the support arrangement comprises a tab 23 for fixing the support arrangement 2 on the lower leg 112 and/or proximal to the ankle joint 114.
- the tab 23 and the connecting element 4 are arranged in such a way that they are in the Tightened state, as shown in Figure 16, overlap, in the present case essentially in the circumferential direction with respect to a proximal-distal oriented axis.
- the connecting element 4 is arranged radially outside, i.e. above the tab 23. The connecting element 4 therefore overlaps with the tab 23.
- FIG 17 shows a schematic sectional view through a further device 1 for limiting and/or damping a foot movement via the ankle joint through its support arrangement 2 perpendicular to the proximal-distal direction.
- the device 1 essentially corresponds to that from FIGS. 15 and 16, with the fastening section 42 and the adhesive section 25 extending on the lateral side L up to the area of the first connection 21.
- the connection element 4 therefore extends from the first connection 21 arranged on the lateral side L to the holding arrangement connection 31, on which it is slidably held, and from the latter further anteriorly to the medial side M, and from the latter in turn further posteriorly the lateral side L into the area of the first connection 21.
- connection element 4 As a result, a frictional connection between the first connection 21 and the free end 41 of the connection element 4 on the lateral side L can be provided if the free end 41 or the fastening section 42 are releasably attached to the support arrangement 2 or the adhesive section 25.
- the connecting element 4 then accordingly forms a loop, which runs from the lateral side L over the shoe heel area posteriorly to the medial side M, and which tensile forces introduced on the holding arrangement connection 3 on the support arrangement 2 in the shoe heel area as well as on the medial side M and partly also on the lateral side L in the support arrangement 2 and from there further to the lower leg 110 and / or ankle 114 of the wearer of the device 1.
