Abstract: Abstract Disclosed is a manually operated apparatus for guiding a lower limb through knee flexion and extension. A rigid supporting frame carries an adjustable leg- support assembly that receives the lower limb. A manual input member drives a mechanical motion-transmission mechanism comprising gears supported on shafts and at least one linkage coupled to the leg-support assembly. Manual movement rotates at least one gear, and the linkage transfers movement to the leg-support assembly to move the supported lower limb between positions corresponding to knee flexion and extension. A mechanical angle stopper limits transmission movement at an endpoint of a permitted angular range. A selectively engageable mechanical lock arrests movement of the motion-transmission mechanism and the leg-support assembly when required.
