Abstract

A socket (130) for connecting a prosthetic limb to the residual limb of a amputee, including an adapter (11) having at least one resin port (11b') extending thfrethrough and a generally conical composite material extending from the adapter (11). The composite material further includes a resin matrix and a multilayer triaxially woven preform (16) embedded in the matrix. The preform is woven directly onto a positive mold (22) of the residual limb. The adapter (11) is positioned generally at the apex of the generally conical composite material. The adapter (11) protrudes through the composite material.
