Abstract
A joint assembly incorporated into reconditioned end surfaces established between an upper bone and an opposing lower bone. The assembly includes a pair of first components anchored into reconditioned bone end surfaces of a first joint defining bone and exhibiting a flexible and band-shaped loop displace-ably supported along exposed undersides established between outer portions which are assembled around the bands. A second component anchored into a second reconditioned end surface of a second joint defining bone exhibits a planar support surface upon which said bands are in contact with and displace during articulating motion of the bones. Entrapment pockets are formed within the first components for collecting wear particles and debris resulting from displacement of the belt.
