Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a new plantar orthosis or orthopedic insole.
  • This sole can be made in removable form or plantar orthosis or sockliner, or not be removable and constitute a glued sockliner, or even the upper part of the first sole of the shoe.
  • the present invention proposes to remedy these disadvantages.
  • the invention relates to a plantar orthosis comprising, from front to rear, on a substantially flat area (17), so-called sub-capital zones, namely an area (11) for the first metatarsal and a zone (12) for the fourth and fifth metatarsals, at the rear of these zones, separated from one another, a retro-capital bar zone or retro-capital support (13) said zones having substantially the outlines represented on the figure 1 , and reliefs substantially as appearing on the figure 2 .
  • the plantar orthosis may optionally further comprise, in the rear, an internal hemicoupole zone (14) and an external hemicoupole zone (15), the plantar orthosis ending in a talar ring ( 16) said zones having the outlines represented on the figure 1 , and reliefs of these areas substantially as appearing on the cuts of the figure 2 .
  • the orthotic orthosis represented on the figure 1 has, at its lower level, a base 10 cut, for example, in a thick sheet of a flat material and forming a flat first sole. On this base are arranged, in relief, a certain number of zones, namely a zone 11 under capital of the first metatarsal, an area 12 for sub-capitals of fourth and fifth metatarsals, a retro-capital bar or retro-capital support 13, an internal hemicoupole 14, an external hemicoupole 15 and a heel ring 16.
  • the layout shown on the figure 1 defines, according to the invention, the contour lines of the different zones, it being understood that these zones may vary, in their width or in their length.
  • the length and / or width of the zones may vary within ⁇ 10%, and preferably ⁇ 7%, with respect to the dimensions as they appear in the figure, the dimensions being proportional to the sizes of the orthoses.
  • zones 11 to 16 reveals an additional zone which remains flat, namely an anterior zone 17 for the phalanges, and possibly an inner flat zone 18 internal to the heel ring and also delimited by the hemicoupoles, but which could also be be slightly concave.
  • the different zones 11 to 16 are connected to the flat areas 17 and 18, as well as to each other for the adjacent areas, by smooth connecting lines, avoiding any abrupt transition that would form a sensitive edge for the foot.
  • a first embodiment makes it possible to manufacture the orthosis according to the figure 1 from a flat sheet, suitably cut and deformed and stiffened so as to present the different zones 11 to 18 in one piece.
  • Another embodiment consists in producing the orthosis by molding.
  • Another embodiment may consist in providing zones 11 to 16 cut along the lines represented on the figure 1 these areas are then juxtaposed and fixed, for example by gluing or stitching, on the sheet or soleplate which will reveal the plane areas (17) and (18).
  • FIG. 2 Another embodiment, an example of which is shown on the figure 2 consists in producing parts that will be partially superposed and assembled, preferably by gluing.
  • the orthosis comprises a first part A, the anterior ends of which respectively form the zones 11 and 12.
  • piece B forms, in its central part, the retrocapital bar. It can be completed, on its surface, by a piece C which comes to thicken it in its center.
  • Another piece D forms the outer hemicoupole 15, and extends forwardly and towards the inner side. It overflows the outer side of the orthosis (10).
  • a piece E forms the heel ring 16 and has a U-shape which makes it extend under the outer and inner hemicoupoles.
  • a part F forms the internal hemicollole which is partially superimposed on the internal metatarsal part of the piece A, on the central part of the piece D, and on one of the branches of the piece E.
  • This hemicoupole 14 overflows the periphery of the the sole 10 on the inner side, as is usual.
  • the reliefs 11 and 12 have a height preferably between 0.5 mm and 10 mm. These areas may be flat or slightly inclined forward.
  • part A we see three possible longitudinal section variants for the sub- and anterocapital elements of the first, fourth and fifth metatarsals defined by part A, the maximum thickness being substantially located at the neck of the metatarsals, the inclined or plane surfaces between the cervix and the 1/6 limit being discovered to form zones 11 or 12 while the posterior parts located between the Lisfranc joint neck will be covered by part B.
  • the thicknesses are preferably between 1 and 10 mm.
  • FIG 7 a longitudinal sectional view is shown in the central part of the retro-capital bar, inclined towards the rear. In cross section, it can be flat, or curved with a gutter, as shown in section 4-4, figure 2 , or even flat with a median bulge without lateral gutter, or well curved with a gutter and lateral fins.
  • the height in the thickest part is 2 to 5 mm at least up to 8 or 9 mm at most.
  • retro-capital support When realized in the form of retro-capital support, we see, on the figure 6 it has a central longitudinal section similar to that of the retro-capital bar, but extends only under the central metatarsals, namely the second, third and fourth metatarsals, and then has convex cross-sections with the maximum heights under the second, third or fourth metatarsal.
  • the height may vary from 2 to 5 mm at least and 8 or 9 mm at most.
  • the maximum height may be at the medial border perpendicular to the scaphoid or at the base of the scapho-cunean joint, or at the level of the internal Lisfranc articulation (cunéo -muitearsienne).
  • the section taken at its maximum height, may be regularly convex, or arch ear, or even regularly concave.
  • the height varies from 2 to 25 mm.
  • the transverse relief may be concave or inclined flat, or convex.
  • the height is between 2 and 25 mm.
  • the reliefs in the longitudinal direction either of substantially constant height, or slightly inclined forwards, in the diagram on the left.
  • the reliefs in cross-section 1-1, 2-2 or 3-3 may be in particular slightly convex or flat inclined in the front part corresponding to section 1-1, or flat inclined or slightly concave for sections 2-2 and 3-3.
  • the height can vary from 2 mm to 25 mm.
  • the orthoses according to the invention can be made in different ways.
  • the plantar orthosis overhang an empty volume or containing a light or porous material, the orthosis itself ensuring the resistance to deformation due to weight and effort.
  • an orthosis according to the figure 1 may be made in one piece by injection molding or, preferably, by deformation, in a press fitted with suitable complementary matrices, to provide a rigid orthosis, although provided with a certain elasticity, and which rests on the base or sole properly said shoe, essentially by its periphery, the volume under the reliefs of the orthosis being, for example, empty.
  • the orthosis can be manufactured by separate production of its various components, which are then assembled and fixed on the flat base 10, for example by gluing.
  • the different constituents can be obtained by partial stackings of constituents which extend one under the other.
  • orthotics can be manufactured with the set of a shoe sole and do not constitute a sockliner which is integrated later in it. This can be obtained, for example, by molding in a suitable material.
  • the materials used in general will have a shore hardness of between 0 and 200.
  • the orthosis according to the invention may constitute a sockliner or form the upper part, or be part of a first midsole, or be part of the outer sole, depending on the different types of shoes , the orthosis according to the invention can be reported, or conversely be in one piece with the insole, or the first mounting sole or the outer sole, the orthosis may be removable or not relative to a shoe.
