Mounting the Spirit Level of the NEURO HiSWING

This online tutorial describes the mounting of the spirit level of the NEURO HiSWING system ankle joint. The spirit level is part of the system joint and is used to adjust the NEURO HiSWING on slopes or inclines according to the basic alignment set by the orthotist.  

You can find further information on the system ankle joint in the instructions for use of the NEURO HiSWING.

Step 1/5

Reinforce as usual until only the final layer of carbon fibre fabric is missing.

Step 2/5

Mount the assembly/lamination dummy for the spirit level to the system string close to the joint using spray adhesive. Maintain a distance of 4cm to the axle screw of the system joint to ensure the movability of the lever.

Step 3/5

Cover all assembly/lamination dummies with a final layer of carbon fibre fabric. 

Step 4/5

Laminate as usual. Make sure that the fibres are soaked thoroughly.

Step 5/5

Place the shaping dummy of the system joint and secure it with adhesive tape. Press out the foot piece in order to receive the highest possible fibre volume ratio. Continue as usual.

Step 1/4

Let the resin harden. Remove the shaping dummy.

Step 2/4

Use a sharp knife or a file to remove the laminate above the assembly/lamination dummies. Ensure clean edges for the spirit level.

Step 3/4

Remove the assembly/lamination dummy for the spirit level with a screw. Screw it into the thread until the assembly/lamination dummy moves upwards on the thread and can be removed. This ensures that the laminate edges do not get damaged. 

Step 4/4

Continue as usual. Cut the orthosis from the model and temper and grind it.

Step 1/3

Clean the surfaces to be adhered. Use a small amount of AGOMET® F330 to adhere the spirit level to the cavity shaped by the assembly/lamination dummy.

Note: mind the safety data sheet of the AGOMET® F330.

Step 2/3

Mount the system joint as described in the instructions for use and the corresponding online tutorial.

Step 3/3

The alignment of the orthosis is based on the individual, gait-related normal posture of the patient. This ensures the most physiological gait possible in mid stance.
