ABSTRACT:
Within its plantar area the artificial foot for a leg prosthesis is provided--embedded within the molded foot portion--with a plate-shaped reinforcing member (10) that consists of two superposed leaf springs (10a, 10b) of approximately equal length which are configured so as to conform to the rolling profile of the foot, as a result whereof an improved metatarsal elasticity is obtained.
