Shoulder Joint Model

Product Code : SCL-BLE-10928

The Shoulder Joint Model is an anatomical teaching model used for demonstrating shoulder-joint structure, ball-and-socket articulation, upper-limb movement, and basic ligament-supported stability. It is intended for biology labs, medical colleges, nursing institutes, physiotherapy classrooms, and anatomy training centers that need a clear visual aid for musculoskeletal education.

Product Description

The Shoulder Joint Model from Lab Glassware Manufacturer helps teachers and trainers explain how the humerus, scapula, clavicle, and glenoid region work together to support shoulder movement. It supports lessons on rotation, abduction, adduction, flexion, extension, joint alignment, and shoulder stability, depending on the confirmed model design.

This model is suitable for repeated classroom demonstration in anatomy, physiology, orthopaedic, nursing, biology, and physiotherapy education.

Key Features

• Single-unit shoulder joint model for anatomy and upper-limb movement teaching.
• Useful for explaining ball-and-socket articulation, shoulder alignment, and mobility.
• Supports lessons on humerus, scapula, clavicle, glenoid cavity, and joint stability if shown.
• Suitable for biology, medical, nursing, physiotherapy, and health-science classrooms.
• Helps students understand shoulder mechanics more clearly than flat textbook diagrams.
• Educational model only; not intended for diagnosis, clinical measurement, or surgical planning.
• Material, size, movement range, labels, and anatomical detailing available on confirmation.

How to Use the Shoulder Joint Model

1. Place the Shoulder Joint Model on a stable classroom table or demonstration bench.
2. Identify the humerus, scapula, clavicle, glenoid region, and visible joint surfaces if shown.
3. Use the model to explain how the shoulder works as a ball-and-socket joint.
4. Demonstrate rotation, abduction, adduction, flexion, and extension gently if the model is movable.
5. Point out ligament position, joint cavity, or labelled parts if included.
6. Return the model to protective storage after the teaching session.

Safety note: Handle the model gently. Do not force movement beyond its designed range, bend parts, pull ligament structures, drop the model, or use it as a clinical diagnostic device.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean the model with a soft dry cloth after classroom use.
• Store it in a dry place away from heat, moisture, sharp tools, and heavy pressure.
• Protect movable sections, labels, base, and small anatomical details from impact.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Shoulder Joint Model used for?

A Shoulder Joint Model is used to teach shoulder anatomy, ball-and-socket articulation, upper-limb movement, joint alignment, and ligament-supported stability in anatomy and biology classes.

Is this model suitable for physiotherapy education?

Yes, it is suitable for physiotherapy classrooms, medical colleges, nursing institutes, biology labs, and anatomy training centers as an educational demonstration model.

Does the model move like a real shoulder joint?

The product name confirms a shoulder joint model. Confirm whether the supplied version is fixed, movable, sectional, detachable, or ligament-supported before final publication.

What material is the Shoulder Joint Model made from?

Confirm whether it is PVC, resin, plastic, metal-supported plastic, or another material before final listing.

Can students handle the model during practical classes?

Yes, students may observe and handle the model under supervision. It should be kept on a stable surface and protected from forced movement, drops, scratches, and rough handling.

Is this shoulder model a medical diagnostic device?

No. It is an educational anatomy model for teaching and demonstration, not a diagnostic device, surgical reference, or clinical measurement tool.
