Abstract

The present invention relates to a device for fixing a joint structure. The device for fixing a joint structure, according to one aspect of the present invention, comprises: a first slider for fixing a first directional joint movement state of a joint structure that includes a first joint element and a second joint element; a first locking member included in the first slider; and a first corresponding locking member which operates relative to the first locking member and blocks a forward directional movement and a backward directional movement of the first slider.

Claims (15)

1. A joint structure fixing apparatus, comprising:

a first slider to fix a first directional joint motion state of a joint structure including a first joint element and a second joint element;

a first lock member included in the first slider;

a first counterpart lock member to act on the first lock member to block forward and backward directional movements of the first slider;

a second slider to fix a second directional joint motion state of the joint structure;

a second lock member included in the second slider; and

a second counterpart lock member to act on the second lock member to block forward and backward directional movements of the second slider,

wherein the first slider is connected to the first joint element via a first link set.

2. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein there are a first joint part and a second joint part between the first joint element and the second joint element, and

the second slider is connected between the first joint part and the second joint part via a second link set.

3. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the second link set comprises only a link for the second directional joint motion.

4. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first link set comprises a link for the first directional joint motion and a link for the second directional joint motion.

5. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first slider or the second slider carries out sliding movement along a linear path on the second joint element.

6. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first lock member or the second lock member includes a plurality of serrations.

7. The joint structure fixing apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the first counterpart lock member or the second counterpart lock member is capable of being fitted into a corresponding portion of the plurality of serrations when in action.
