FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has foot prosthesis pivotally connected to ankle part prosthesis and recuperative damping unit having cylindrical bushing connectable with its proximal end to the member receiving the stump or shin prosthesis. The bushing has recuperative damping member mounted inside. The ankle part of the prosthesis is integrated with recuperative damping unit bushing. The recuperative damping member has rod and piston. Bushing cavity is filled with damping medium. Bushing and rod are connected in distal parts with foot prosthesis through hinges mounted in series in the direction from toe to heel. EFFECT: enhanced reliability; simplified design; high stability in walking; lower level of effort spared for walking. 13 cl, 26 dwg
