The hinge body has attachment edges and a flexing zone (44) between the attachment edges defining a flexing axis (47) .

A microscope stage with a flexural axis may exhibit predictable flexure characteristics and limited cross-coupling translations.

The invention is a total knee endoprosthesis with a fixed flexion-extension axis (FE) throughout all degrees of flexion and extension of the knee.

Disclosed is a knee brace that incorporates hinges that allow the brace to pivot simultaneously about a flexion-extension axis and a longitudinal rotation axis as the brace flexes and/or extends.

In this patent, there are details provided about the electronic device that features “a flexible display in the housing having a bending region that bends about a bend axis”.

The ankle joint body (10A) is pivotally connected to the foot component (12) by a first pivotal connection (14) defining a medial-lateral ankle joint flexion axis.

The length of the device is between about 60 mm about 130 mm.

The width is between about 25 mm and about 50 mm.

The device has an axis of preferred bending along its longitudinal centerline.

Numerically, the performance of the FRP sheet pile is compared with the response of a fictitious sheet pile of steel and with two new FRP geometries that increase stiffness to minimize flexure about the minor axis of bending.

A longitudinal axis (LR) through the tibia (3) allows the tibia (3) to rotate nonorthogonally and anteriorly of the flexion-extension axis (FE).

In order to permit a defined movement of the mounting element, the mounting device (10) has at least one fold axis (11), along which the mounting device may be deformed when a force, in particular a tensile force, is exerted on the mounting element (16).

The invention relates to an endoprosthesis for a knee-joint.

The inventive endoprosthesis comprises a femur (3) and a tibia component (4) for anchoring into the respective bone.
