Abstract:
An artificial cartilage was invented based on JOINT-ELECTRICITY THEORY that first in the world created in 2010, and verified in 2011, both by the present inventor, Sue-May Kang. The said artificial cartilage has sleek joint-surface and individualized appropriate shape, is made of proper piezoelectric material, and to be placed into the indication-joints, including at least the natural joints with lack or defect in cartilage and artificial joints, those suffering from impairment in generating Joint-Electricity. After surgical placement (yet, any surgery is not included in the present invention), it can be subjected to the dynamic force within the said joint in its effective range, and thus, continuously generate intra-articular electricity (is the so-called Joint-Electricity), and consequently supplements the wanted Joint-Electricity to the said joint and its related muscles. Using the said artificial cartilage can remarkably reduce the pains, increase muscular strength, and improve motor functions, when comparing to that without.

Claim (Index 7):
The artificial cartilage of  claim 3 , wherein, the said artificial cartilage, not only can be placed and secured into the artificial joint during the implanting surgery for the said artificial joint, but also can be placed and secured into the site corresponding to the joint-surface of the artificial joint before the said implanting surgery through the methods including adhesive bonding the said artificial cartilage of the present invention to the target site of the said artificial joint, and other methods excluding coating.
