Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Knochenhohlschraube nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 also ein mit einem Außengewinde versehenes, im Rahmen eines chirurgischen Eingriffs am Menschen eingesetztes, zur Verbindung von zwei Knochen miteinander oder zur Befestigung eines Bauteils an einem Knochen in den Knochen einzuschraubendes Element.The The invention relates to a hollow bone screw according to the preamble of claim 1 thus provided with an external thread in the frame a surgical procedure used on humans, for connection of two bones with each other or for fixing a component element to be screwed into bone on a bone.

Aus der EP 0 407 434 B1 ist eine Knochenhohlschraube mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1 bekannt, die bereits mit einem zentralen, im Querschnitt unrunden Kanal versehen ist, in den ein Werkzeug eingeführt werden kann.From the EP 0 407 434 B1 a bone hollow screw with the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known, which is already provided with a central, non-circular in cross-section channel into which a tool can be inserted.

Bei derartigen Knochenhohlschrauben stellt sich das Problem der Einbringung des unrunden Kanals in die Knochenhohlschraube, die durch Bohren nicht zu bewerkstelligen ist.at such hollow bone screws raises the problem of introduction of the non-round channel in the bone hollow screw, which by drilling not to accomplish is.

Aus der EP 1 119 429 B1 ist es bekannt, in den menschlichen Körper zu implantierende, aus einer Titanlegierung bestehende Bauelemente durch ein Metallspritzgussverfahren herzustellen.From the EP 1 119 429 B1 It is known to produce in the human body to be implanted, consisting of a titanium alloy components by a metal injection molding process.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Knochenhohlschraube zu schaffen, die auf einfache Weise mit einem unrunden Kanal versehen ist.Of the Invention is based on the object, a bone hollow screw create a simple way with a non-circular channel is.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, der Unteranspruch gibt eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung an.According to the invention this Problem solved by the features of claim 1, the dependent claim an advantageous embodiment of the invention.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand einer Zeichnung erläutert deren 1 eine Knochenschraube in einem Längsschnitt und deren 2 die Knochenhohlschraube in einem Querschnitt wiedergibt.The invention will be explained below with reference to a drawing 1 a bone screw in a longitudinal section and their 2 reproduces the bone hollow screw in a cross section.

Die Knochenhohlschraube besteht aus einem Schaft 10, wenigstens einem um den Schaft 10 umlaufenden Außengewindeabschnitt 12 und einem sich zentral durch den Schaft 10 erstreckenden Kanal 14. Der Kanal 14 ist im Querschnitt sechskantig, was das Ein- und Ausschrauben der Schraube mit einem zu dem Innenquerschnitt des Kanals komplementär ausgebildeten Werkzeug (einem Inbusschlüssel) erlaubt, was eine Krafteinleitung über die gesamte Länge des Schafts 10 und damit ein Vermeiden übergroßer Scherkräfte erlaubt.The bone hollow screw consists of a shaft 10 , at least one around the shaft 10 circumferential external thread section 12 and one centrally through the shaft 10 extending channel 14 , The channel 14 is hexagonal in cross section, which allows the screwing in and unscrewing the screw with a complementary to the inner cross section of the channel formed tool (an Allen key), which is an introduction of force over the entire length of the shaft 10 and thus avoiding excessive shear forces.

Bei Bruch des Schafts 10 der Schraube (etwa bei einer durch einen Unfall bewirkten Verschiebung der durch die Schraube miteinander verbundenen Knochen) bildet der unrund, vorzugsweise sechskantig ausgebildete Kanal 14 auch des distalen Teils der Schraube eine Angriffsfläche für ein Werkzeug und erlaubt so eine Herausschrauben aus dem Knochen.At breakage of the shaft 10 the screw (approximately in a caused by an accident displacement of the interconnected by the screw bone) forms the non-circular, preferably hexagonal channel formed 14 Also, the distal part of the screw an attack surface for a tool, allowing a unscrewing from the bone.

Die erfindungsgemäße Knochenhohlschraube besteht aus einer durch Pulverisieren, Spritzgießen und Sintern geformten Titanlegierung, was die unrunde Ausbildung des Kanals im Inneren des Schafts relativ problemlos ermöglicht.The Bone hollow screw according to the invention consists of a titanium alloy formed by pulverization, injection molding and sintering, what the non-circular formation of the channel inside the shaft relative easily possible.
