The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: This invention introduces an innovative Height Adjustable 3D-Printed Prosthetic System designed to enhance comfort, mobility, and customization for amputees. Traditional prosthetics are often fixed in height and require manual adjustments or complete replacement when users experience discomfort or growth-related changes. This invention solves these challenges by utilizing a modular, 3D-printed,- lightweight prosthetic design with an integrated adjustable height mechanism. The prosthetic can be precisely adjusted based on the user's preference, medical requirements, or activity level, providing improved ergonomics and posture alignment. The use of advanced 3D-printing materials, such as PLA, PETG, or carbon-fiber composites, ensures an affordable, durable, and customizable structure. The system supports micro-adjustments and includes shock-absorbing and weight-distribution features for enhanced comfort. This invention offers an affordable solution to amputees, improving their daily mobility, confidence, and long-term musculoskeletal health.
