Abstract:
The actuated leg prosthesis comprises a knee member, a socket connector provided over
the knee member, an elongated trans-tibial member having a bottom end under which is
connected an artificial foot, and a linear actuator. At first pivot assembly allows to
operatively connect the trans-tibial member to the knee member. A second pivot
assembly allows to operative connect an upper end of the actuator to the knee member. A
third pivot assembly allows to operatively connect a bottom end of the actuator to the
bottom end of the trans tibial member. The prosthesis can be provided as either a front
actuator configuration or a rear actuator configuration.
