JIS T 0111-4:1997 (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 4 of JIS T 0111 specifies, for the test loading conditions and levels defined in 4.3.2 and 4.4 of JIS T 0111-3, - the values of the offsets for setting up, aligning and loading the test sample, and - the values of the test forces to be applied for static and cyclic testing.
