hinged knee support
The hinged knee support is a medical orthopedic knee support that can provide strong support to patients and effectively reduce knee force andpain. It is suitable for various knee problems such as ligament injury, muscle sprain, synovial bursitis, postoperative rehabilitation, and sports prevention. The adjustable design minimizes flexion and extension movements, providing optimal stability for patients with weak and injured knees.
As a highlight of this orthopedic knee support, both sides of the hinged knee support are equipped with adjustable range of motion (ROM) limiters or dials. This allows medical staff to accurately adjust the tightness and angle of the hinged knee sleeve according to different patient needs to limit the knee joint’s knee joint’s bending (flexion) or extension (extension) range. This is essential for postoperative rehabilitation and helps protect healing tissue.

Unlike simple compression knee sleeves or wrap-around knee braces that provide basic support, hinged knee support provides mechanical control of knee movement and is more stable than non-hinged compression sleeves. These hinges are designed to simulate the natural movement of the knee joint, providing excellent stability and protection, and allowing controlled flexion and extension movements while preventing harmful side-to-side swaying or twisting movements.
Сайт Аупкон adjustable knee immobilizer uses an embedded flexion hinge system to limit flexion and extension activities within a specified adjustable range. The locking knob can be freely adjusted in the extension angle of 0-90° and the flexion angle of 0-120° to achieve the best fit and control the range of motion. Hinged knee support helps to reduce excessive strain on the muscles, tendons, and ligaments of the flexion and extension knee joints, especially for acute injuries or instability.
To deal with non-serious боль в колене, боль в колене медиальная, anterior cruciate ligament injury, колено бегуна, quadriceps tendonitis, разрыв мениска, patellar pain syndrome, and other knee injuries, you can use хлопковая кинезиологическая лента produced by производитель кинезиологических тейпов, which is also a magic tool frequently used by physical therapists for physical therapy of body parts.

Функции of hinged knee support
- Hinge Mechanism: The hinges are located on either side of the knee, aligned with its natural axis of rotation. This allows the knee to flex and extend (bend and straighten) relatively freely.
- Stabilizing Brace: The rigid brace attached to the hinge prevents the knee from moving too much laterally (inward or outward), hinged knee support effectively protects the collateral ligaments (medial and lateral), and prevents knee flexion.
- Adjustable ROM Limiter: The range of motion of this orthopedic knee support with locking dial can be adjusted from 0° to 120° to meet the patient’s specific restrictions on flexion (bending range) and extension (straightening range) of the knee during rehabilitation.
- Adjustable Straps: Multiple adjustable straps (usually with Velcro/Hook and Loop) are provided above and below the hinged knee support. Allows the user to adjust the tightness, stays in place during activity, and does not slide down the leg for comfort and desired pressure level, helping to reduce swelling.
- Removable Double-sided Stabilizer: Hinged knee support not only effectively helps knee recovery, but the double-sided hinge and locking knob are also removable. After the knee recovers, it can be switched to a sports knee brace to protect your daily exercise.
- Open Patella Design: The hinged open knee brace design effectively reduces the pressure on the patella during exercise and prevents patellar displacement.. Compared with closed patella knee braces, the open design provides better protection and stability.
Treatment of knee injuries: The hinged knee support is suitable for recovery and therapy after ligament and tendon strains, meniscus tears, and ACL, MCL, or LCL surgery, which can stabilize and support the knee joint and reduce the risk of re-injury.
Enhanced stability: The hinged brace’s sturdy post and hinge design mechanically resists forces that push the knee joint inward (valgus stress) or outward (varus stress), preventing the knee joint from moving side to side and a,,t the same time, allowing the knee joint to flex and straighten, perform correct and safe activities.
Облегчение боли: By providing external stability, the hinged knee support can reduce abnormal movement and relieve pain in injured or unstable knee joints, while applying compression to reduce swelling and inflammation, thereby further relieving pain.
Postoperative recovery: Unlike rigid fixators, hinged open knee braces allow therapists to help you control knee flexion and extension through adjustable range of motion (ROM) limiters on the hinge, which means that even after knee injury or surgery, patients can still walk, exercise and perform some daily activities more confidently, protecting the repair site and preventing excessive stiffness.
1. How is a hinged knee support different from a regular knee brace?
The key difference is the hinged structure.
Hinged knee support provides mechanical control, strong side-to-side (inside-out) stability support and protection, and often has adjustable stops to limit the range of knee flexion or extension.
Regular knee braces provide compression, warmth, and light support; they lack rigid components to control movement mechanically.
2. What are hinged knee supports commonly used for?
Ligament Injuries: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), medial collateral ligament (MCL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), and lateral collateral ligament (LCL) tears, among others.
Meniscal Tears: Provide stability and pain relief, sometimes with offloading, laxity, or recurrent dislocations.
Postoperative Recovery: After major knee surgery, they use a hinged knee support to support the healing tissue and control the range of motion.
Injury Prevention: Athletes who participate in high-impact or contact sports may wear a hinged knee support as a preventative measure to reduce the risk of injury.
3. How do I size my hinged knee support?
Sizing is critical for effectiveness and comfort and is usually measured around the thigh (6 inches or 15 cm above the kneecap) and sometimes around the calf (6 inches or 15 cm below the kneecap). Be sure to contact the Aupcon компании по производству ортопедических корсетов for the latest hinged knee cap sizing chart for precise reference.
4. Can I adjust the hinge myself?
We recommend that you make adjustments under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Many hinged knee supports have adjustable range of motion (ROM) stops or dials that allow for precise extension settings, which are essential for protecting healing structures, so it is safest to have them adjusted by a professional.
5. What should I pay attention to when wearing a hinged knee support?
A hinged knee support should be comfortable and fit well without restricting blood circulation or causing discomfort.
The hinge should be aligned with the natural pivot point of the knee (center of the knee).
The hinged knee support straps should be tight to provide firm support without pinching or creating pressure points.
6. Can I sleep in an orthopedic knee support?
Usually, yes, but it is recommended that you consult your doctor for specific instructions regarding nighttime wear and comfortable sleeping positions during the initial recovery period to prevent unnecessary injury to the knee joint.
