Brief Description

The KEN DALL KK-S1520 Locking Knee Joint is a modern prosthetic solution for patients requiring reliable knee joint fixation with individual adjustment capabilities. The model combines a polycentric design and a hydraulic mechanism, ensuring smooth movement, control over flexion and extension speed, and safety during standing and walking.

Features and Benefits

• Hydraulic, polycentric mechanism that mimics natural joint movements;
• Adjustable stance flexion to adapt to individual patient needs;
• Manual lock (lock/unlock mode) for secure fixation in an upright position;
• Unique horizontal hydraulic cylinder design for compactness and improved movement dynamics;
• Unique oil supply design for stable hydraulic operation and extended service life;
• Flexion/extension adjustment for precise parameter tuning to the patient;
• Spring adjustment to control position recovery and support during movement.

This knee joint is designed for use in lower limb prostheses where a combination of smooth hydraulic damping and locking capability for safe standing is crucial. Parameter adjustments allow the orthotist or technician to optimize joint behavior according to the patient's weight and activity level. The horizontal hydraulic cylinder design with unique oil supply enhances reliability and contributes to reduced component wear.

Installation and maintenance involve periodic checks of the hydraulic system's integrity and adjustment of flexion, extension, and spring settings according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Manual locking allows the patient to quickly switch between "lock" and "unlock" modes, making the joint versatile for everyday and active use.

Excellent operational characteristics and flexible adjustment options make the KEN DALL KK-S1520 an optimal choice for specialized clinics, rehabilitation centers, and individual prosthetic systems where safety, comfort, and durability are important.
