Item Open Access ELECTRIC UNLOCK FOR LTI LOCKING SHOULDER JOINT(2008) Williams, T. Walley, IIIAt the 2002 MEC, LTI introduced the improved Collier Shoulder Joint which was still being shown at the 2005 MEC. In 2006, the Collier design was replaced by a completely new joint with greatly improved durability. The original joint had an option of adding on an electric unlocking mechanism that was slow and noisy. A year later in the summer of 2007 an electric unlock was made available for the new joint. This paper will discuss the design features of this new shoulder joint and the kit that can convert it to a joint that is locked and unlocked by an electric actuator.
