Uvod: Amputiranci se vedno bolj zanimajo za rekreacijo in športna tekmovanja. Ta interes je spodbudil zavedanje, da potrebujemo proteze, ki bodo vsakemu posamezniku dovoljevale dosego njegovega fizičnega cilja. Pokazala se je potreba po izdelovanju prilagojenih protez tudi za plezanje, z njo pa novi problemi, kot je ustvarjanje novih tehnologij in neprestano iskanje načinov za izboljšanje protez. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je bil izdelava plezalnega stopala, ki ima glede na oviro, s katero se sooča plezalec, zamenljiv končni del. Metode dela: V prvem delu diplomskega dela smo s pomočjo brskalnika Google poiskali že obstoječa plezalna stopala. Za iskalni niz smo uporabili proteze za skalno plezanje in prosthesis for rock climbing. V drugem delu smo se lotili izdelave našega plezalnega stopala. Zanj smo uporabili les drevesa Ayous. Stopalo je sestavljeno iz dveh delov, in sicer iz osnove in menljivega dela, ki omogoča različne tehnike in stopnje plezanja. Na področjih, kjer je pričakovan stik plezalnega stopala s skalo, je obdan z gumo, ki omogoča dobro stopanje in trenje. Povezavo med osnovnim in menljivi delom omogočata stročnici in vijak M10. Rezultati: Z raziskavo smo ugotovili, da na trgu že obstaja pet plezalnih stopal. Proučili smo njihove pomanjkljivosti in raziskali možnosti za njihovo izboljšavo. Lastnosti plezalnih stopal, za katere menimo, da imajo pomanjkljivosti, smo poizkusili pri izdelavi našega izdelka odpraviti. Razprava in zaključek: Poiskali smo že prilagojena plezalna stopala in naredili novo, ki bo kar se da funkcionalno. Pri izdelavi stopala smo ohranili dobre lastnosti in poskušali zmanjšati negativne lastnosti že izdelanih stopal. Ker klasične proteze ne ustrezajo pogojem plezanja, se pri športnem udejstvovanju amputiranec lahko odloči za uporabo prilagojene športne proteze ali za uporabo prilagodljivih komponent. Za različne stile plezanja se uporabljajo različni tipi plezalnikov, kar pa amputiranci zaradi skromne ponudbe prilagojenih plezalnih stopalih te možnosti nimajo. Plezalno stopalo z omogočeno menjavo končnega nastavka dopolnjuje že obstoječi nabor plezalnih stopal in omogoča plezanje na višji ravni.

Izvleček

Introduction: Introduction: Nowadays, amputees are increasingly interested in recreational and competitive sports. This growing interest continues to drive the development of custom prostheses. To achieve the best performance of the amputee, new materials and techniques have to be used. Against this background, new problems arise and new solutions have to be found. Purpose: The aim of this diploma work was to design and build a prototype climbing foot prosthesis with an interchangeable distal part that can adapt according to the obstacle the climber has to overcome. Methods: In the first part of the thesis, we used Google browser to familiarize ourselves with existing climbing shoes. For the search we used the keywords: proteze za skalno plezanje and prosthesis for rock climbing. In the second part, we started to make our climbing prosthesis from ayous tree. Its peculiarity is that it consists of two parts, the base and the interchangeable part that allows different climbing techniques. In the places where the climbing shoe comes in contact with the surface, it is covered with rubber, which allows a good step and friction. The connection between the basic and the interchangeable part is made possible by the rivet nut and the M10 screw. Results: After searching the literature, five existing prosthetic feet were found and studied. We discovered some of their shortcomings and ways to improve them. Our goal was to overcome these weaknesses in our model. Discussion and conclusion: We searched for existing prosthetic feet and designed a new foot to be as functional as possible. In creating our prosthetic foot, we kept the good features and tried to minimize the negative features of the pre- existing feet. Adapted feet have evolved because commercially available prosthetic feet are not designed for climbing. An amputee can choose to use adaptive sports prostheses or adaptive components in the prosthesis. Different types of climbing shoes are used for different climbing styles, which is impossible for prosthesis wearers due to the lack of offerings in this area. To expand the range of use, we have made it possible to exchange the end piece for different types of climbing, which would allow climbing at a higher level.
