The entire international community is very concerned about the safety of prosthetic use, and people also realize that inspection standards will help the development of prosthetics better. Under the auspices of the International Society of Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO), a series of conferences were held. In 1977, a summary meeting was held in Philadelphia, USA. From 1979 to now, ISO /TC168 has been responsible for the improvement of this series of international standards. The mechanical properties of the prosthesis during testing may not be consistent with those during actual use. In actual use, the user applies various loads to the prosthesis for different periods of time. The test methods defined in this document include This includes static strength tests and dynamic strength tests, usually using a single test force to produce a composite test load. The static strength test corresponds to the worst loading conditions that occur during various activities. The dynamic strength test corresponds to the load during normal walking. This document specifies fatigue tests on structural components. The data provided by this test are not sufficient to predict the performance of prostheses. Actual service life. Evaluation of lower limb prostheses and their components requires clinical trials in addition to laboratory testing as described in this document. When the load-bearing part of the prosthesis has significant changes in design, laboratory tests and clinical trials should be conducted again. In theory, additional laboratory test evaluation processes should consider the following factors. function, wear durability and tear resistance, development of new materials, There is no standard for the impact of these factors, so it needs to be supplemented continuously. Structural inspection of prosthetic lower limbs Requirements and test methods1 ScopeImportant note. This document is applicable to assess whether lower limb prosthetic devices (structures) comply with 4.4 (see Note 1) of GB/T 30659-2014. The prosthetic ankle-foot devices and foot components on the market have been proven to comply with GB/T 30659- The strength requirements specified in 4.4 of ISO 22675.2014 do not need to be re-tested in accordance with ISO 22675.2016. WARNING. This document is not intended as a guide for selecting a prosthetic device (structure) for individual lower limb prosthetic prescriptions. Ignoring this warning may result in Safety hazards for amputees. This document specifies procedures for static and dynamic strength testing (see Note 2) of lower limb prostheses, usually using a single test force to produce a composite test force. The peak values of the individual force components associated with the composite load on the test specimen usually occur at different moments during the stance phase of walking. The tests described in this document include. --- Static and dynamic tests of the main structure of all components; --- Substructure torsion static test of all components; --- Static and dynamic testing of ankle-foot devices and foot components, including the entire ankle-foot device as a whole Individual components, or the ankle connector and the entire foot assembly as a single component, are tested statically and dynamically; --- For the knee joint and all its connecting parts or The knee-tibia component and its adjacent components are subjected to sub-structural static ultimate strength tests; --- Perform static and dynamic tests on the knee locking substructures of all mechanical devices that lock the knee joint or knee-tibial component in the extended position. The tests described in this document apply to certain types of ankle disarticulation prostheses (see Note 2), transtibial (below the knee) prostheses, knee disarticulation prostheses, Leg (above-knee) prostheses, and distal (lower) components of hip disarticulation and hemi-pelvic prostheses (see Note 3). NOTE 1 These tests can be applied to complete structures, parts of structures or individual components. NOTE 2 These tests apply only to ankle amputee prostheses that incorporate ankle-foot unit components from a common production line. NOTE 3 The distal component includes the knee and ankle-foot assembly and all intermediate components. ISO 15032 describes the test methods for hip joint components.2 Normative referencesThe contents of the following documents constitute essential clauses of this document through normative references in this document.
