ABSTRACT:
An artificial limb which is designed primarily for temporary use, such as for sports, while taking a shower, where the artificial limb is subjected to dirt, sand, or water. The artificial limb is constructed of a plastic tubular member which is split or bifurcated at one end to form a group of projecting fingers which define a cup-shaped region. A socket is formed of wrapped casting tape with the fingers being embedded in the socket walls during the wrapping operation.
