Additional Features of your DonJoy Armor/Fource Point ACL Knee Brace
FourcePoint Hinge Technology works to enhance DonJoy's Four-Points-of-Leverage design by damping knee joint extension, which improves the mechanical performance of the brace and reduces shear forces at the knee. Addressing the "at risk" position, the hinge resistance engages in the last 25 degrees of knee extension.
*** The Four Points of LeveragePoint 1 Anterior: The first point of leverage is the anterior thigh cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the femur anteriorly.Point 2 Posterior: The second point of leverage is the posterior calf cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the tibia posteriorly.Point 3 Posterior: The third point of leverage is a posterior thigh strap, which is applied while drawing the hinge bars posteriorly on the knee.Point 4 Anterior: Incorporating the fourth point generates the crucial opposing force. By tightening and affixing the anterior tibial strap, the hinge is drawn into proper position, and the tibia is rotated posteriorly. LO PRO HINGE WITH STEEL OUTER PLATE ™ hinge features a new, sleek, protective steel outer plate. This makes it the thinnest yet toughest hinge available, able to withstand the impacts of contact or extreme sports.FOURCEPOINT™ HINGE TECHNOLOGY ™ hinge technology increases the knee flexion angles thereby reducing the time spent in the ACL “at risk” positions. It enhances DonJoy’s 4-Points-of-Leverage System™ by dampening knee extension, and reducing shear forces at the knee. The FourcePoint™ hinge uses a spring mechanism which engages in the last 25 degrees of extension and provides resistance during knee extension
