The invention provides a combined prosthesis test model, which comprises a liner test model 10 and a tibia support test model 20.
The gasket test mold 10 includes a gasket body 11 and a locking assembly 12, the gasket body 11 has a first surface S1 and a second surface S2 opposite to each other, the first surface S1 is formed with a locking path P, the locking assembly 12 is disposed on the first surface S1 and is movable in the locking path P, and the locking assembly 12 may be located at a side or an upper portion of the locking path P. The tibial tray test mold 20 includes a tibial tray body 21 and a mating portion 22, the tibial tray body 21 has a third surface S3 and a fourth surface S4 opposite to each other, and the mating portion 22 is disposed on the third surface S3.
The pad trial 10 and the tibial tray trial 20 move relatively in the horizontal direction, and the first surface S1 faces the third surface S3, and during the movement, the matching portion 22 pushes the locking component 12, so that the locking component 12 moves to lock the matching portion 22, and the pad trial 10 and the tibial tray trial 20 are combined. Specifically, in the initial state, the locking assembly 12 is in a free position, which is at least partially located on the path of movement of the mating portion 22 within the locking path P; during the moving process, the matching part 22 pushes the locking assembly 12 to move, so that the locking assembly 12 moves towards the limit position; the engaging portion 22 moves further to the other end of the locking path to push the locking assembly 12 into the limit position, at this time, the engaging portion 22 is not in contact with or just tangent to the locking assembly 12, so that the engaging portion 22 no longer abuts against the locking assembly 12, and the locking assembly 12 can automatically return to the free position and at least partially located on the moving path of the engaging portion 22, so as to prevent the moving of the engaging portion 22 in the locking path, thereby locking the engaging portion 22.
In use, the tibial tray trial 20 is placed in the gap of the knee joint with the third surface S3 facing upward, and then the spacer trial 10 is inserted from one side of the gap with the first surface S1 facing downward, at which time the locking assembly 12 is in the free position; during the insertion, a relative movement is generated between the engaging portion 22 and the locking path P (in practice, the engaging portion 22 does not move, but the locking path P moves), and on the moving path, the engaging portion 22 pushes the locking assembly 12, so that the locking assembly 12 moves from the free position to the limit position; when the pad test mold 10 is fully inserted, the matching portion 22 reaches the other end of the locking path P, and loses interference with the locking assembly 12, the locking assembly 12 automatically returns to the free position under the action of the restoring force, and the movement of the matching portion 22 in the locking path P is prevented, so that the locking assembly 12 moves to lock the matching portion 22, that is, the relative positions of the pad test mold 10 and the tibial tray test mold 20 are locked, stable combination of the pad test mold 10 and the tibial tray test mold 20 is realized, and the operation error caused by the offset of the position of the pad test mold 10 relative to the tibial tray test mold 20 in the reciprocating straightening and buckling resetting operation is effectively avoided. In addition, the locking assembly 12 and the matching part 22 have simple structures, the locking between the liner test mold 10 and the tibia support test mold 20 can be realized in the process of inserting the liner test mold 10, the operation is simple, and the implementation is easy.
In the following, a specific form of the modular prosthesis test mold is schematically illustrated by means of two examples, it being understood that the text and the figures are only examples and that the man skilled in the art can adapt it in combination with the prior art and conventional means.
First embodiment
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the locking path P is recessed from the first surface S1 toward the second surface S2, and the engaging portion 22 protrudes from the third surface S3. Through the concave and protruding design, when the pad test mould 10 is combined with the tibia support test mould 20, the overall height is not increased, so that the miniaturization of the height of the combined type prosthesis test mould is ensured, and the installation in a small space operation range is facilitated.
In the present embodiment, the number of locking assemblies 12 and locking paths P is a pair, which are symmetrically disposed about the longitudinal centerline of the liner body 11, and the number of mating portions 22 is a pair, which are symmetrically disposed about the longitudinal centerline of the tibial tray body 21.
It should be understood that the number and positions of the locking assembly 12, the locking path P, and the mating portion 22 are merely examples, and the number may be 1 or 2 or more, and the positions may overlap, be parallel or be angled to the longitudinal center line, so long as the installation direction of the liner body and the tibial tray body can be adapted and the locking of the two can be achieved, and in this embodiment, the number of the structures is corresponding.
In this embodiment, the locking paths P are concave planes parallel to the first surface S1, each locking path P includes a first path P1 and a second path P2, one end of the first path P1 is open at the end face of the pad body 11 and extends along the longitudinal direction of the pad body 11, the second path P2 is disposed at a side face of the first path, for example, in a fan shape, the first path P1 and the second path P2 have a common area a, the mating portion 22 moves in the first path P1, and the rotating portion 121 moves in the second path P2.
Each locking assembly 12 comprises a rotating part 121, an elastic part 123 and a combining part 122, wherein the rotating part 121 is connected to one end of the second path P2 through the combining part 122 and can rotate between a free position and a limit position, the rotating part 121 is at least partially positioned in the common area a in the free position, and the rotating part 121 is not positioned in the common area a in the limit position.
The engaging portion 22 enters the first path P1 through one end of the first path P1, abuts against and pushes the rotating portion 121 to move from the free position to the limit position, and when the engaging portion 22 enters the other end of the locking path P1, the rotating portion 121 returns to the free position under the restoring force of the elastic portion 123, so that the engaging portion 22 is limited at the other end of the first path P1. The engaging portion 22 may or may not be in contact with the rotating portion 121 when the engaging portion 22 is at the other end of the first path P1.
The width of one end of the first path P1 is greater than the width of the other end of the first path P1, i.e., the one end of the first path P1 is relatively wider and takes a bell mouth shape. Since the tibial tray jig 20 is inserted before the pad jig 10, it is difficult to accurately determine the position of the mating part 22 through the small gap of the knee joint, so that the one end of the first path P1 is designed to be bell-mouth-shaped, it is convenient for the mating part 22 to accurately enter the locking path P, and collision with the end face of the locking path P is avoided. For example, one end of the first path P1 may be fan-shaped, and the arc may be between about 30 degrees and 60 degrees.
The portion of the first path P1 other than the flare is substantially linear and has a width substantially the same as the outer diameter of the fitting portion 22 so that the fitting portion 22 is accurately guided therein. The shape of the other end of the first path P1 corresponds to the shape of the mating portion 22, for example, the mating portion 22 is columnar, and the other end of the first path P1 is semicircular, so that the mating portion 22 can be accommodated in the other end of the first path P1 in a matched manner, and is locked by the locking assembly 12, so that the locking effect is more stable, and shaking is prevented.
In this embodiment, the pad body 11 further has a limiting portion 13 protruding between the first path P1 and the second path P2. The limiting portion 13 may be integrally formed with the pad body 11, and when the rotating portion 121 is in the free position, one side of the rotating portion 121 abuts against the limiting portion 13, and in this position, at least part of the rotating portion 121 is located in the common area a. Thereby, it is ensured that the rotating portion 121 can be pushed by the engaging portion 22.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the rotation part 121 includes a rotation body 1211 and a vertical plate 1212, and the vertical plate 1212 extends vertically from one end of the rotation body 1211 to a surface close to or contacting the locking path P, and the shape of the vertical plate 1212 may correspond to the inner wall of the second path P2. The other end of the rotary body 1211 has a through hole, the elastic portion 123 is a torsion spring, the coupling portion 122 is a screw, one end of the coupling portion 122 sequentially passes through the through hole and the elastic portion 123 and is coupled with the pad body 11, one end of the elastic portion 123 abuts against the vertical plate 1212, and the other end of the elastic portion 123 abuts against the inner wall of the locking path P. The above-mentioned structures cooperate to enable the rotating part 121 to return to the free position by the elastic force of the elastic part 123 when not receiving the pushing force.
In the present embodiment, the other end of the coupling portion 122 and the surface of the rotary body 1211 are flush with the first surface S1 or lower than the first surface S1. Alternatively, the other end of the rotating body 1211 is recessed, and the other end of the coupling portion 122 is sunk into the recessed portion.
It should be understood that the form of the locking assembly 12 is not limited thereto, and that other examples of the locking assembly 12 are described below with respect to the second embodiment.
Second embodiment
The main difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the locking assembly is otherwise substantially the same as the first embodiment, and thus will not be described again.
As shown in fig. 7 to 9, in the present embodiment, one end of each locking path P is open at the end face of the pad body 11 and extends in the longitudinal direction of the pad body 11. The locking path P in the present embodiment is similar to the first path P1 of the first embodiment, i.e., one end is flared. The other end of the lock path P has a shape corresponding to the shape of the fitting portion 22, for example, the fitting portion 22 has a columnar shape, and the other end of the lock path P has a semicircular arc shape.
Each locking assembly 12 includes a pivoting portion 124 and a connecting portion 125, one end of the pivoting portion 124 is close to an end surface of the pad body and is pivotably connected to the pad body 11 through the connecting portion 125, the other end of the pivoting portion 124 is close to the other end of the locking path P, the pivoting portion 124 is rotatable about the connecting portion 125 between a free position in which the other end of the pivoting portion 124 sags in a direction away from the second surface S2 and a limit position in which the other end of the pivoting portion 124 rotates in a direction close to the second surface S2 during movement from the free position to the limit position. In the extreme position, the other end of the pivot portion 124 approaches or contacts the lock path P surface. In the present embodiment, the lock path P surface is a plane, and in the limit position, the upper surface of the other end of the pivot portion 124 contacts the lock path P surface; the engaging portion 22 enters the locking path P via one end of the locking path P, abuts against and pushes the pivot portion 124 to pivot from the free position to the limit position, when the engaging portion 22 enters the other end of the locking path P, the engaging portion 22 is not in contact with the pivot portion 124, the pivot portion 124 returns to the free position, and the other end of the pivot portion 124 interferes with the engaging portion 22, so that the engaging portion 22 cannot leave from the locking path P.
Wherein, in the free position, the pivot portion 124 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, the angle between the pivot portion 124 and the horizontal plane is 10 degrees to 40 degrees, and in the limit position, the pivot portion 124 is horizontal.
In this embodiment, the locking assembly 12 may further include an elastic portion (not shown) connected to the pivot portion 124, and when the pivot portion 124 is not pushed, the elastic portion provides an elastic force to the pivot portion 124, so that the pivot portion 124 is maintained in a free position.
The other end of the pivoting portion 124 is higher than the upper surface of the engaging portion 22 when in the limit position; in the free position, the other end of the pivoting portion 124 is lower than or flush with the upper surface of the mating portion 22, such that the mating portion 22 is stopped by the other end of the pivoting portion 124, achieving locking.
The elastic portion is not necessary, and since the other end of the pivot portion 124 is higher than the upper surface of the mating portion 22, in other embodiments, the other end of the pivot portion 124 can hang down freely due to gravity, and locking can be achieved, so that the structure is simpler, and disinfection and disassembly are facilitated.
In summary, the combined type prosthesis test mold provided by the invention is matched with the matching part through the locking component, so that the front and back positions of the liner test mold and the tibia support test mold are locked in the assembly process of the liner test mold and the tibia support test mold, the liner test mold and the tibia support test mold can be stably combined, and the operation error caused by the deviation of the liner test mold position relative to the tibia support test mold in the reciprocating straightening and buckling resetting operation is effectively avoided. And moreover, the locking assembly and the matching part are simple in structure, the locking between the liner test die and the tibia support test die can be realized in the process of inserting the liner test die, and the operation is simple and easy to realize.
