Clutch module for prosthesis
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A clutch module for a prosthesis including a chassis to which at least one finger prosthesis is articulated, the clutch module comprising:
- a drive element;
a driven element;
a clutch device;
first and second clamping bodies, which couple the drive element to the driven element in a torque-controlled manner;
wherein the clutch device shifts between two gear stages depending on the torques applied to the driven element;
wherein the clutch device shifts between the gear stages with different increases in speed and independently of the direction of rotation of the drive element;
wherein the clutch device contacts the first and second clamping bodies.
