Abstract: A conformable hand brace includes a support surface for supporting palm portion of a patient's hand and an adjustable mechanism that allows the cross section of the brace to be adjusted. The brace can be adjusted to provide a close fit as the geometry of the hand changes. The inventive system allows the conformable hand brace to be designed automatically by a computer based upon anatomical measurements.

Abstract: Thermoplastic 3D objects are printed directly onto permeable materials with a high strength bond. The 3D object can be attached to the permeable material at one side where the bottom layer of the 3D object can be attached to the permeable material or alternatively, at an internal layer where portions of the 3D object are on opposite sides of the permeable material. In order to improve the adhesion of the 3D object to the permeable material, the bonding layer of the liquid thermoplastic material that is printed directly onto the permeable material can be deposited at modified 3D printer settings that can include a hotter than normal material deposition temperature. Additional build layers of the liquid thermoplastic material are printed on the bonding layer to complete the 3D objects.

Abstract: A conformable hand brace includes inner surfaces for supporting thumb and palm portions of a patient's hand and an adjustable mechanism that allows the cross section of the brace to be adjusted. The design of the conformal hand brace can be automatically designed by a computer based upon anatomical measurements of a patient's hand derived from a plurality of photographs of the hand.

Abstract translation: 热塑性3D物体直接印刷在具有高强度粘合的可渗透材料上。 3D物体可以在3D物体的底层可以附着到可渗透材料的一侧附着到可渗透材料，或者在3D物体的部分位于可渗透材料的相对侧上的内层。 为了提高3D物体与可渗透材料的粘附性，直接印刷在可渗透材料上的液体热塑性材料的粘合层可以以可能包括比正常材料沉积温度更高的改进的3D打印机设置沉积。 液体热塑性材料的附加构造层印刷在粘合层上以完成3D物体。
