Definitions

  • Screw system with a screw and a plate, as well as a method for producing a screw
  • the invention relates to a screw, a system comprising a screw and a plate, and a method for producing a screw according to the preamble of the independent patent claims.
  • the object of the present invention to overcome the disadvantages of the known and in particular to provide a screw that offers greater flexibility in use.
  • the screw should also be suitable with thin plates and / or for connection to thin bones and thus enable a wider range of applications.
  • the screw according to the invention is preferably a bone screw and comprises a shaft with a tip, a head and a continuous thread, as well as a longitudinal axis of the shaft.
  • the screw further comprises a group of radial cross-sectional areas of the head, which are delimited by the longitudinal axis of the shaft.
  • the position of each radial cross-sectional area is defined by an azimuth angle in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
  • Each radial cross-sectional area comprises an area which is defined by the longitudinal axis and the outer surface of the screw.
  • the thread extends into the head in such a way that the surface areas of the radial cross-sectional areas are constant in a first azimuth angle range.
  • the area contents of the radial cross-sectional areas in a second azimuth angle range have a preferably smaller value that deviates from the area contents of the first azimuth angle range.
  • the first azimuth angle range is different from the second azimuth angle range.
  • the first azimuth angle range is at most 350 °, preferably at most 345 °.
  • the thread preferably extends essentially from the screw tip at least to the head, particularly preferably into the head.
  • the thread does not begin at the screw tip and / or is interrupted and essentially extends up to the head, particularly preferably into the head.
  • a thread extends into the head only over an azimuth angle range, preferably in the second azimuth angle range.
  • the thread extends into the head over an entire circumferential area of the screw.
  • the thread extends closer to the screw head than with conventional screws and in particular into the head.
  • the screw can therefore also engage in the bone when using thin plates and / or when treating bones with thin cortical layers.
  • a radial cross-section of the head is to be understood as that part of the total cross-sectional area of the head which lies on the one side of the longitudinal axis and is delimited by the longitudinal axis.
  • a cross-section of the head therefore has, by definition, two radial cross-sections.
  • a continuous thread is designed in such a way that the thread has a starting point and an end point and no thread-free sections are arranged between them.
  • a continuous thread has a constant thread pitch between the starting point and the end point.
  • a continuous thread can be multiple.
  • the starting point is particularly preferably arranged essentially at the screw tip and / or the end point is arranged essentially in an area of the screw head.
  • the thread pitch and the inner and outer thread diameter can be constant over the entire length.
  • the envelope of the outside diameter of the screw can extend essentially parallel to the screw's longitudinal axis.
  • a thread section preferably a tapering section of the thread which extends into the screw head, has a different thread diameter. It is understandable to a person skilled in the art that such a tapering section with a different thread diameter does not conflict with an above-described thread with essentially the same thread shape over the entire thread length.
  • the thread has different thread diameters along the longitudinal axis of the screw.
  • the thread can have a preform area and / or an intermediate area and / or an anchoring area, as is described in WO 2007/048267, which is incorporated by reference.
  • the screw can therefore also be self-tapping and / or self-drilling.
  • the screw therefore preferably has exactly one continuous Ge thread. This can in particular extend from the tip to the head.
  • the threaded section that extends into the head can in particular also be designed only as a stump.
  • the screw according to the invention is particularly advantageous when using and fixing bone plates with a thickness of 0.1 to 1 mm.
  • Such thin plates are particularly advantageous when treating bones with a thin soft tissue covering.
  • the screw according to the invention offers a more secure hold compared to the prior art.
  • the areas include only the area of the radial cross-sectional area on one side of the longitudinal axis. Each cross-sectional area therefore comprises two radial cross-sectional areas, each with an area, the position of which is defined by an azimuth angle that differs by 180 °.
  • the azimuth angle which defines the position of the respective area
  • the end of the thread is preferably used as the zero point.
  • the area with an azimuth angle of 0 ° is by definition assigned to the first azimuth angle range, while the directly adjacent area (with an azimuth angle greater than 359 °) by definition belongs to the second azimuth angle range.
  • This example is only used to better understand the description of the invention. Similarly, it is possible to choose any zero point to define the position of the area.
  • non-thread-related contours should be excluded.
  • a drive such as Torx, Phillips, slot
  • Torx Torx, Phillips, slot
  • the drive can be filled in with ideas, so the drive has no meaning for the calculation of the area.
  • the surface area in a direction of the longitudinal axis in the direction of the screw head can also only be included up to the equator, that is to say up to the widest point of the screw head in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
  • the head of the screw can be understood in particular as an area of the screw along the longitudinal axis which extends in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis in the radial direction at least partially over the thread, in particular an outer radius of the thread. Accordingly, the area of the radial cross-sections can also be calculated in such a way that the area of the screw that does not belong to the head according to the above definition is not included.
  • the screw can comprise a material from the group consisting of titanium, titanium alloys and implant steel. However, other biocompatible materials are also conceivable.
  • the screw preferably consists of one of the materials mentioned.
  • the screw can preferably have a thread with a thread pitch of 0.4 to 0.6 mm with a thread diameter of 0.9 or 1.2 mm.
  • the screw can also have a thread pitch of 0.5 to 0.75 mm with a thread diameter of 1.5 or 1.8 mm.
  • thread diameters and pitches are conceivable, in particular thread diameters from 0.5 to 2.5 mm and thread pitches from 0.1 to 1.5 mm.
  • the screw preferably has a drive selected from a group comprising slotted, cross, polygonal, Torx and Phillips.
  • the first and the second azimuth angle range can be subdivided into at least two, in particular into two or three or more, sections which are distributed at the same azimuth angle intervals. This means that the complete circumferential angle range is divided into the corresponding multiple number of sections. In this case, the first and second azimuth angle ranges alternate. If the first and second azimuth angles are divided into two sections, for example, the two sections of the first azimuth angle range are each delimited by the sections of the second azimuth angle range.
  • the azimuth angle distance from the center of the respective sections can be measured and in this case is before given 180 ° or 120 °.
  • the first azimuth angle range can also be at most 330 °, preferably at most 305 °.
  • the indicated azimuth angle range is to be understood as the sum of the individual NEN sections of the respective azimuth angle ranges.
  • the thread of the screw can be multiple, preferably two or three starts.
  • the first azimuth angle range can also be a maximum of 340 °, 320 °, 315 °, or 300 °, especially in the case of multiple threads.
  • the second azimuth angle range is particularly preferably at least n ⁇ 15 °.
  • the first azimuth angle range in this case is therefore at most the difference between 360 ° and n ⁇ 15 °.
  • the azimuth angle range can be divided into as many sections as the thread has turns.
  • the head preferably has at least one notch which is formed by the continuation of the thread.
  • the notch can in particular be produced by a whirling knife which is used to produce the thread.
  • the notch can allow a deeper screwing into the bone, in particular into the hard cortical bone immediately below the plate, before the screw head rests on a bone plate, for example. This makes the supply more stable, because parts of the thread can still be anchored in the bone just below the head, and damage to the bone can be reduced.
  • the head can have a number of such notches, which corresponds to the number of sections.
  • Each section of the second azimuth angle range preferably has at least one notch, which is formed by the continuation of the thread.
  • the notch can in particular be frusto-shaped and can also have an at least partially elliptical area. Particularly preferably, the notch has different widths in the circumferential direction, the thickness initially increasing in the direction of the thread run and decreasing again in an end section. The maximum width of the notch can in this case be arranged in an area where the thread ends in the shaft.
  • the at least one notch which is formed by the continuation of the thread, can be arranged on an underside of the head in the region of the thread run-out.
  • the underside of the head can in particular be understood as the area of the surface of the head whose surface normal points at least partially in the direction of the tip of the screw shaft, in particular in relation to a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
  • the underside of the head comprises the area of the upper surface of the head, which is arranged on the side of the tip of the shaft as seen from the equator of the head.

  • a centroid is to be understood according to the current definition.
  • the centroid of the radial cross-sectional areas in the first azimuth angle range can each have the same distance from the longitudinal axis.
  • the center of gravity of the radial cross-sectional areas in the first azimuth angle range preferably has an identical position in relation to the longitudinal axis.
  • the radial cross-sectional areas in the first azimuth angle range also have an identical shape. It is particularly preferred that the radial cross-sections within the second azimuth angle range have at least partially different shapes. However, it is conceivable that the radial cross-sectional areas in the second azimuth angle range also have an identical shape. Even in this case, however, the area of the radial cross-sections in the second azimuth angle range would be less than in the first azimuth angle range.
  • the radial cross-sectional areas in one section have identical shapes to the radial cross-sectional areas in at least one other section, preferably all other sections.
  • the radial cross-sections within a section have identical or different shapes.
  • the screw can be designed, in particular shaped, so that each radial cross-sectional area is contiguous, in particular path-contiguous or simply contiguous.
  • a surface is path-connected if any two points on the surface can be connected by a path within the surface.
  • a surface is simply connected if it is path-connected and any closed line can be drawn together to a point.
  • the screw head does not have any through holes or holes.
  • the screw head preferably does not include any bores or holes that connect the longitudinal axis to the surface of the screw or the head.
  • the screw in particular the head of the screw, can have a first normal cross-section in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis in the head region of the screw, which is not circular.
  • the screw in particular the head of the screw, preferably has a second normal cross section which is circular and is parallel to the first normal cross section.
  • the first normal cross section is preferably arranged along the longitudinal axis of the screw between the tip of the screw and the second normal cross section.

  • the bone screw can be inserted into the opening of the bone plate in such a way that the head is in mechanical contact with the bone plate, in particular rests on the bone plate, and the thread extends at least partially into the opening.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing a screw, in particular a bone screw.
  • the method is preferably used to produce a screw previously described.
  • the screw is produced with a tool, in particular selected from a group comprising whirl knives and thread milling cutters. But there are also other, comparable tools conceivable.
  • the method comprises providing a blank material with a substantially cylindrical shape and cutting a thread along a longitudinal axis of the cylindrical shape with the tool.
  • a head is formed, in particular rotated.
  • the screw is then picked up using a contour collet.
  • the contour collet chuck has a contour which is adapted to a contour of the head or parts of the head and which, in the tapped state, is in active connection with a mating contour of the head or parts of the head.

This allows the screw to be tapped without damaging the thread that extends into the screw head.
  • a head is first turned into the blank material and then the thread is cut.
  • the contour of the contour collet is at least partially designed to be essentially complementary to the mating contour of the head or of parts of the head and parts of the neck or thread of the screw.
  • the contour fits exactly on the mating contour, at least in part, which enables particularly secure holding.
  • the thread is preferably cut so close to the head with the aid of the tool that the tool forms a notch on an underside of the head. This is especially done when the head is rotated before the thread is cut. However, it is also conceivable that the shape of the head is only rotated after the thread has been cut.
  • a tool is preferably used which has a vertebral plate, the vertebral plate not having an overcut in a cutting direction on the leading surface, that is to say in the direction of the screw head and away from the thread that has already been cut.
  • the vertebral plate can therefore penetrate deeper into the screw head without leaving an impression of the overcut.
  • the head is further processed by means of a CNC long lathe.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une vis (1), de préférence une vis d'ostéosynthèse, comprenant une tige (2) dotée d'une pointe (3), d'une tête (4) et d'un filet (5). La tige comporte également un axe longitudinal (A). Un groupe d'aires de section radiale (Q) de la tête (4) s'étendent en passant par l'axe longitudinal (A) de la vis (1), la position de chaque aire de section radiale (Q) étant définie par un angle azimutal (6) dans un plan (E) perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal (A). Chaque aire de section radiale (Q) a une surface qui est définie par l'axe longitudinal (A) et la face externe de la vis (8). Le filet (5) se poursuit jusque dans la tête (4) de manière à ce que les surfaces des aires de section radiale (Q') soient constantes dans une première zone d'angle azimutal (9) et que les surfaces des aires de section radiale (Q'') dans une deuxième zone d'angle azimutal, différente de la première zone d'angle azimutal (10), aient une valeur s'écartant de, de préférence inférieure à, celle des surfaces dans la première zone d'angle azimutal (9). La première zone d'angle azimutal (9) atteint 350° maximum, de préférence 345° maximum.
