“…At first, prosthesis was a solution to physical sequels (Sinitski et al, 2012) as patients covered the inexistence of a limb. Other types of prosthesis help the patient recover part of their lost mobility (Au et al, 2015;Bellman, Holgate and Sugar, 2008;Casallas, Garzón and Luengas, 2011;Chen and Wang, 2015 (Dillon and Fatone, 2013;Murdoch, 1967;Rubiano, 2012).…”

“…In the prototype by Yuan et al(2011) a digital control system is implemented to calculate the magnitude of the force necessary for the patient to maintain balance from its own weight; the angle between the components of the prosthesis regarding the ground and the part of the prosthesis coming into contact with the floor (Adebayo et al, 2011;Bellman et al, 2008;Cherelle et al, 2014Cherelle et al, , 2012Yuan et al, 2011;Yuan et al, 2014;Zheng and Wang, 2016;Zhu et al, 2015Zhu et al, , 2014. There is only one parameter left to the patient, the other ones are calculated by sensors located in diffrent parts of the prostesis.…”

En el Centro de Diseño y Metrología del SENA– CDM se ha detectado que la población en condición de discapacidad de miembros inferiores representa un desafío técnico y tecnológico en la recuperación de las condiciones normales de la marcha, puesto que se requieren intervenciones costosas o elementos que ayuden al desplazamiento de estas personas, como bastones, sillas de ruedas, muletas u otros implementos que sirvan de soporte y faciliten la rehabilitación del paciente. Es importante tener en cuenta que hay dudas acerca de si las prótesis existentes en el mercado suplen las necesidades económicas y de funcionalidad de cada paciente. Con esta investigación se pretende implementar una prótesis transtibial, a fin de mejorar algunas condiciones de la marcha del paciente. Colombia no cuenta con muchas entidades que diseñen y fabriquen los elementos que componen una prótesis. Por tal razón y porque en el SENA, específicamente en el Centro de Diseño y Metrología- CDM, hace aproximadamente cinco años se viene trabajando en el diseño y adaptación de ortesis y prótesis, pero con componentes importados, se quiere diseñar e implementar una articulación de tobillo para amputación transtibial, haciendo uso del recurso humano y tecnológico disponible en el país, y así, poder desarrollar un sistema con manufactura propia y 100 % SENA, que cumpla con las características de funcionalidad y ergonomía para los pacientes con dicha discapacidad. Este artículo científico original recopila la Información más relevante sobre un tema que afecta nuestra sociedad. Aquí se analizan diferentes fuentes bibliográficas descritas en la literatura existente. Con ellas creamos las etapas necesarias para la redacción del artículo definiendo los objetivos de la revisión, haciendo la búsqueda más relevante de la bibliografía y organizando la información de acuerdo con mapas mentales para redactar el artículo.

“…prosthesis presented in [5], also includes a spring in parallel to the ankle motor unit and its initial tests have been reported in [12]. Additionally, the studies of soft actuators for the transtibial prostheses in [13], [14], [15] have shown that the energy efficiency of the system can be improved by storing the energy during stance phase and releasing it to provide active ankle push-off generation.…”

Abstract-In this study, we present the conceptual design of a fully-passive transfemoral prosthesis. The design is inspired by the power flow in human gait in order to have an energy efficient device. The working principle of the conceptual mechanism is based on three storage elements, which are responsible of the energetic coupling between the knee and the ankle joints. Design parameters of the prosthesis have been determined according to the energy absorption intervals of the human gait. Simulation results shows that the power flow of the system is comparable with human data. Finally, an initial prototype is presented as proof of concept.

Abstract-In this study, we present the conceptual design of a fully-passive transfemoral prosthesis. The proposed design is inspired by the analysis of the musculo-skeletal activity of the healthy human leg. In order to realize an energy efficient device, we introduce three storage elements, which are responsible of the energetic coupling between the knee and the ankle joints. Simulation results show that the power storage of the designed conceptual prosthesis is comparable with the human gait.
