Abstract
In the case of a device for reducing deficits in extension or bending of a distal body member in relation to an adjacent proximal body member articulating with the distal body member a spring force locking mechanism (28, 29 and 31) is provided, which is able to be pivoted between a non-locking state, wherein the biasing force of the spring (34) is able to be freely transmitted to the distal splint (1), and a locking state, wherein the biasing force of the spring (34) is de-coupled from the distal splint (1) and is taken up by the spring force locking mechanism (28, 29 and 31) so that the distal splint (1) is able to be pivoted without any spring action over the free pivoting range.
