Abstract:
Twenty-four electromechanical elbows fabricated for a large-scale clinical evaluation were checked for functionality with two of the units being given a complete laboratory evaluation. The laboratory evaluation revealed that these units would not sustain the required 25 pounds, ten inches out from the elbow center. The brass screws which stabilize the gear sector were changed. This produced a noticeable improvement. Other areas in the evaluation were at an acceptable level of performance. Finally, all elbows were functional and considered acceptable for the clinical evaluation. Author
