ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method and a device for making lower leg prostheses, comprising a prosthesis sleeve, a prosthesis foot and a connecting member interconnecting said prosthesis sleeve and said prosthesis foot. In said method the desired position of said prosthesis foot in relation to said prosthesis sleeve is determined and a prosthesis sleeve is then formed on a prosthesis sleeve positive while simultaneously securing said connecting member to said prosthesis sleeve in the desired position.
A support device for use in said method comprises first fastening means for a support for said prosthesis sleeve positive and second fastening means for mounting adapter means for said prosthesis foot, said first and second fastening means being adjustable in relation to each other to permit reproducible setting of said fastening means corresponding to a desired positioning of said prosthesis foot to said prosthesis sleeve.
