Abstract

See full text

An ankle brace having two relatively rigid side supports with inflatable bladders attached to them. The side supports are connected at their bottom by a flexible strap upon which is mounted an air pump. The air pump is activated by walking and running and inflates the air bladders mounted on the side supports. The side supports are held firmly in place about the lower leg and ankle by straps. A relief valve and/or pin holes in the bladders prevent excessive pressure in the bladders and provide reduced support when the user is not active.
