In the prosthetic industry a trans-tibial prosthetic leg is often referred to as a BK or below the knee prosthesis while the trans-femoral prosthetic leg is often referred to as an AK or above the knee prosthesis.
The friction (resistance to bending) in the knee joint is typically adjusted by tightening a bolt. Often, a spring is used to help the knee straighten before the foot hits the ground during walking. A mechanical friction knee bends when as the user naturally walks as the toe of the prosthetic foot is properly loaded. Often, these knees can have one axis of rotation (single axis) or more than one axis of rotation (polycentric) and are best for lower activity or single speed walkers.
