3.2 Wrist disarticulation assembly
During fabrication consideration should be given to cre-
ate sufficient space for the wiring and switch block and
battery location.
The lamination plate is fabricated directly into the outer
socket. No rotation is possible at the wrist and therefore
the fixed positioned should be set to be optimal for the
user.
To connect the i-limb
®
hand to the lamination plate,
1. Remove the palmar fairing of the hand using a T10
screwdriver
2. Feed the power cable through the hole in the plate
3. Align the slots and slide the hand onto the plate
4. Screw the hand and plate together using a T10 screw
5. Replace the palmar fairing, ensuring not to pinch the
wiring
To remove the i-limb
®
hand from the lamination plate,
complete the steps in reverse.
To complete assembly of the prosthesis the battery and
electrode cables and hand power cable are connected to
the black WD switch block connector.
