JIS T 0111-3:1997 (R2017)

JIS T 0111 specifies procedures for static and cyclic strength tests of lower-limb prostheses where, with one exception, compound loadings are produced by the application of a single test force. The compound loads in the test sample relate to the peak values of the components of loading which normally occur at different instants during the stance phase of walking. The tests described in JIS T 0111 apply to trans-tibial (below-knee), knee-disarticulation and trans-femoral (above-knee) prostheses. Part 3 of JIS T 0111 specifies : - the methods to be used in carrying out the principal static tests; - the methods to be used in carrying out the principal cyclic tests; - the requirements for accuracy of the tests; - the criteria to be met in order to claim compliance with this part of JIS T 0111.
