PATENTANSPRÜCHEPATENT CLAIMS 1. Gelenkpfanne für den Kugelkopf einer Hüftgelenk-Endoprothese, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass in einem metallischen oder keramischen, im Becken des Patienten zu verankernden Zylindertopf (1,2) ein verschleissfester, steifer, in einer kugeligen Ausnehmung (4) den Kugelkopf einer Hüftgelenkprothese aufnehmender Kunststoffeinsatz (3) gegen einen elastischen Puffer (5) begrenzt axial beweglich einge-passt ist.1. Joint socket for the ball head of a hip joint endoprosthesis, characterized in that in a metal or ceramic cylinder pot (1,2) to be anchored in the patient's pelvis, there is a wear-resistant, rigid, in a spherical recess (4) receiving the ball head of a hip joint prosthesis Plastic insert (3) against an elastic buffer (5) is fitted with limited axial movement. 2. Gelenkpfanne nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass im Zylindertopf (1,2) zwischen seinem Boden (2) und dem Einsatz (3) ein elastischer Puffer (5) in Form einer Zylinderscheibe vorgesehen ist und dass die äussere Um-fangskante des Einsatzes mit einem Radialflansch (6) versehen ist, der einen axialen Abstand von dem Öffnungsrand des Zylindertopfes (1) aufweist.2. Joint socket according to claim 1, characterized in that an elastic buffer (5) in the form of a cylinder disk is provided in the cylinder pot (1,2) between its base (2) and the insert (3) and that the outer peripheral edge of the Insert is provided with a radial flange (6) which has an axial distance from the opening edge of the cylinder pot (1). 3. Gelenkpfanne nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Umfang des Kunststoffeinsatzes (3) mit verteilten Vorsprüngen oder einem Umfangsring versehen ist, der in eine Nut auf der Innenseite des Zylinders 1 eingreift, deren Breite mindestens gleich der Zusammen-drückbarkeit des Puffers (7) bzw. der axialen Bewegungsmöglichkeit des Einsatzes im Zylindertopf ist.3. An acetabular cup according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the periphery of the plastic insert (3) is provided with distributed projections or a peripheral ring which engages in a groove on the inside of the cylinder 1, the width of which is at least equal to the compressibility of the Buffer (7) or the possibility of axial movement of the insert in the cylinder pot. Bei Ersatz eines Hüftgelenkes durch eine Gelenk-Endo-prothese wird im allgemeinen so vorgegangen, dass einmal im Becken des Patienten die natürliche Kugelgelenkpfanne durch eine Pfanne aus Kunststoff, Keramik oder Metall und zum anderen der Kugelkopf des Schenkelknochens durch einen Kugelkopf aus Metall, Keramik oder dergleichen ersetzt wird und diese beiden Teile in Eingriff gebracht werden. Bei bekannten Hüftgelenk-Endoprothesen kommt der Kugelkopf der Gelenkprothese in der eingesetzten Gelenkpfanne der Prothese unmittelbar zur harten Anlage, so dass die lotrechten Belastungen beim Gehen oder Laufen des Patienten verhältnismässig starr und unmittelbar von der Gelenkprothese aufgenommen werden, was naturgemäss zu einem Ver-schleiss des Ersatzgelenkes führen muss und auch Erschütterungen für den Patienten mit sich bringt.When replacing a hip joint with a joint endoprosthesis, the procedure is generally such that the natural ball joint socket in the patient's pelvis is replaced by a socket made of plastic, ceramic or metal and the ball head of the femur is replaced by a ball head made of metal, ceramic or the like is replaced and these two parts are brought into engagement. In known hip joint endoprostheses, the ball head of the joint prosthesis comes into direct contact with the inserted joint socket of the prosthesis, so that the vertical loads when the patient walks or runs are absorbed relatively rigidly and directly by the joint prosthesis, which naturally leads to wear and tear of the joint Replacement joint must lead and also brings with it vibrations for the patient. Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, den bisher zu erwartenden Verschleiss auszuschalten bzw. auf ein Minimum zu reduzieren.The object of the invention is to eliminate or reduce to a minimum the wear that was previously expected. Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of claim 1. Durch die Lösung nach der Erfindung wird erreicht, dass Stösse beim Auftreten des Patienten auf dem Boden elastisch von der das natürliche Gelenk ersetzenden Hüftgelenkprothese aufgenommen werden, denn nunmehr kann der Kugelkopf bei jedem Schritt des Patienten die Gelenkpfanne bzw. den Kunststoffeinsatz elastisch nachgebend gegen den Puffer drücken und dieses elastisch komprimieren, womit jeder Tritt des Patienten praktisch elastisch im Gelenk aufgenommen wird und dadurch die Berührungsflächen der Hüftgelenkprothese nur sehr wenig auf Verschleiss beansprucht werden, so dass eine wesentlich erhöhte Lebensdauer der Gelenkprothesen zu erwarten ist. Abgesehen davon wird jeder Tritt nunmehr vom Patienten weich elastisch aufgenommen und damit auch die Geh- oder Laufbewegung entscheidend erleichtert.The solution according to the invention ensures that shocks when the patient steps on the floor are elastically absorbed by the hip joint prosthesis replacing the natural joint, because now the ball head can elastically yield against the joint socket or the plastic insert against the buffer with every step the patient takes press and compress it elastically, with which every step of the patient is absorbed practically elastically in the joint and the contact surfaces of the hip joint prosthesis are only subjected to very little wear and tear, so that a significantly increased service life of the joint prosthesis can be expected. Apart from that, every step is now taken up by the patient in a soft and elastic manner, which also makes walking or running movements significantly easier. Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert, in der ein Achsschnitt einer Gelenkpfanne einer Hüftgelenkprothese dargestellt ist.The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, in which an axial section of a joint socket of a hip joint prosthesis is shown. Nach dem Ausführungsbeispiel besteht die Gelenkpfanne für den Kugelkopf einer Hüftgelenk-Oberschenkelprothe-se aus einem im Becken zu verankernden metallischen, körperverträglichen Hohlzylinder I mit abschliessendem Boden 2. Zur einwandfreien Verankerung ist der Zylinder 1 aussen mit Aufrauhungen, Rillen oder Gewindegängen versehen. In diesen an sich bekannten Zylindertopf 1,2 ist ein Einsatz 3 aus Kunststoff mit einer etwa halbkugeligen Ausnehmung 4 axial begrenzt beweglich eingepasst und zwar dadurch, dass der im wesentlichen steife Einsatz 3 gegen einen vorteilhaft aus Silikon bestehenden Puffer 5 aus elastisch nachgebendem Material liegt. Zur Begrenzung der axialen Bewegung des Einsatzes 3 sind Anschläge vorgesehen, indem z.B. der Einsatz 3 am Rand der Ausnehmung 4 mit nach aussen gerichteten Vorsprüngen oder einem umlaufenden Flansch 6 versehen ist, der von der Stirnkante des Flansches 7 des Zylindertopfes 1 einen Abstand von einigen Millimetern besitzt, entsprechend der Zusammendrückbarkeit des elastischen Puffers 5 bzw. entsprechend der axialen Bewegungsmöglichkeit des Einsatzes 3 im Zylindertopf 1,2.According to the exemplary embodiment, the joint socket for the ball head of a hip joint/thigh prosthesis consists of a metallic, body-compatible hollow cylinder I to be anchored in the pelvis with a closing base 2. For perfect anchoring, the cylinder 1 is provided on the outside with roughening, grooves or threads. An insert 3 made of plastic with an approximately hemispherical recess 4 with limited axial movement is fitted into this cylinder pot 1, 2, which is known per se, in that the essentially rigid insert 3 rests against a buffer 5, advantageously made of silicone, made of elastically yielding material. Stops are provided to limit the axial movement of the insert 3, e.g. the insert 3 is provided at the edge of the recess 4 with outwardly directed projections or a peripheral flange 6 which is at a distance of a few millimeters from the front edge of the flange 7 of the cylinder pot 1 has, according to the compressibility of the elastic buffer 5 or according to the axial movement of the insert 3 in the cylinder pot 1.2. Damit der Einsatz 3 nicht aus dem Zylindertopf 1, 2 herausgelangen kann und z. B. beim Transport verlorengeht, ist er auf dem Aussenumfang mit einzelnen, auf dem Umfang verteilten kleinen Vorsprüngen oder einem umlaufenden etwas vorspringenden Ring 8 oder Flansch 8 versehen, der in eine Nut 9 auf der Innenseite des Zylinders 1 eingreift. Die Nut 9 hat dabei mindestens eine Breite gleich der axialen Bewegungsmöglichkeit des Einsatzes 3 im Zylinder 1. Schliesslich können zur axialen Führung der Teile 1 und 3 ineinander in den Flanschen 6 und 7 achsparallele Führungsstifte 10 vorgesehen sein, die entweder im Flansch 6 oder im Flansch 7 fixiert sind. Es ist auch möglich, die Führungen 10 nach innen zu verlegen, wie gestrichelt dargestellt ist.So that the use of 3 can not get out of the cylinder pot 1, 2 and z. B. is lost during transport, it is provided on the outer circumference with individual, distributed on the circumference small projections or a circumferential slightly projecting ring 8 or flange 8, which engages in a groove 9 on the inside of the cylinder 1. The width of the groove 9 is at least equal to the axial movement possibility of the insert 3 in the cylinder 1. Finally, axis-parallel guide pins 10 can be provided in the flanges 6 and 7 for the axial guidance of the parts 1 and 3, which are either in the flange 6 or in the flange 7 are fixed. It is also possible to move the guides 10 inwards, as shown in phantom. Die beschriebene Gelenkpfanne wird in einer Ausdrehung des Beckenknochens eingesetzt und fixiert und in die kugelige Ausnehmung 4 kommt der Kugelkopf einer Oberschenkel-Hüftgelenkprothese zum Eingriff. Durch die Gelenkpfanne wird ein elastischer Gang des Gelenkträgers erreicht, denn bei jedem Auftreten auf den Boden wird der Puffer 5 durch das Körpergewicht elastisch zusammengedrückt und dehnt sich anschliessend wieder aus, womit auch eine längere Lebensdauer der Gelenkpfanne bzw. der gesamten Hüftgelenkprothese wahrscheinlich ist.The joint socket described is inserted and fixed in a recess of the pelvic bone and the ball head of a femoral hip joint prosthesis engages in the spherical recess 4 . The joint socket allows the joint support to move elastically, because every time you step on the ground, the buffer 5 is elastically compressed by the body weight and then expands again, which means that the joint socket or the entire hip joint prosthesis is likely to have a longer service life. 55 1010 1515 2020 2525 3030 3535 4040 4545 5050 5555 6060 6565 SS 1 Blatt Zeichnungen1 sheet of drawings
