1 Technical Data
Connection proximal:
The 3A900 and 3A900/1 KINEGEN.wave polycentric knee joints are
approved for activity level 1 and 2 according to Streifeneder walky-system
and for maximum body weight of up to 125 kg / 275 lbs, including carried
and supported loads.
2 Description and Function
2.1 Application
The products are to be used exclusively for lower limb prosthetics.
2.2 Construction
The 3A900 and 3A900/1 KINEGEN.wave knee joints are polycentric knee
joints with an integrated extension assist and an optional lock that can be
released by a release cord. The upper and lower parts of the four-axis knee
joint are connected by levers. The integrated extension assist is used to
control the swing phase. The knee joint is connected proximally by means of
an Adjustment Core (3A900) or M36 thread (3A900/1), distally by means of
a tube holder with tube clamp (diameter) Ø 30 mm.
3 Assembling
The arrangement of the knee joint axes ensures that in the extended position
the momentum pivot point (D) is above the knee joint and behind the load
line (Fig. 1). Therefore, the stance phase safety is determined exclusively by
the prosthesis alignment.
Attention!
Only with a correct prosthetic alignment can the properties of
the knee joint be used optimally.
For correct assembly, the residual limb position must be taken
into account for positioning the socket connection.
