L'état de la technique le plus proche est essentiellement contenu dans les documents suivants appartenant aux mêmes déposants a) le brevet FR-2593058 qui décrit la technique de mise en oeuvre des attachements articulés du type ci-dessus décrit; b) la demande de brevet FR-9002069 qui décrit un attachement intracoronaire mâle-femelle du type précédent avec gaine en matière plastique interchangeable à l'intérieur de laquelle a e' été placée une bague métallique fendue, tronconique, non en appui avec la paroi de la gaine, assurant seule la liaison élastique avec la partie mâle de l'attachement.
METALLO-PLASTIC EXTRACORONARY ATTACHMENT
FOR DENTAL PROSTHESES
The invention relates to an attachment of the patellar type for dental prostheses of the type comprising a) a male part, of generally spherical or discoid shape with rounded edges, initially made of burn-out material, obtained by simultaneous metal casting with the yoke covering the support tooth belonging to the joint part of the prosthesis; b) a female part, called a cage, obtained by simultaneous metal casting with the adjoining part of the prosthesis; c) a sheath, interchangeable, made of plastic, of generally cylindrical or cylindroconical outer shape, interposed between said metallic male part and said female metallic part, intended to ensure the connection and articulation of said two parts together; d) a metal ring, placed concentrically inside said sheath, in which said male part will be housed;
The closest prior art is essentially contained in the following documents belonging to the same applicants a) patent FR-2593058 which describes the technique for implementing articulated attachments of the type described above; b) patent application FR-9002069 which describes a male-female intracoronary attachment of the above type with interchangeable plastic sheath inside which has been placed a split, frustoconical metal ring, not in abutment with the wall of the sheath, ensuring only the elastic connection with the male part of the attachment.

A l'usage, ledit attachement s'est avéré perdre ses qualités d'élasticité et de rétention, les divers métaux biocompatibles testés n'ayant pas donné satisfaction sur ces paramètres.In use, said attachment was found to lose its elasticity and retention qualities, the various biocompatible metals tested having not given satisfaction on these parameters.

Une première solution technique est décrite dans la demande de brevet FR9115957 (appartenant aux mêmes déposants) qui consiste à intercaler,entre les deux parties de l'attachement, un élément annulaire, ouvert ou fermé, interchangeable, en métal ou en matière souple, apte à assurer la rétention souhaitée entre les deux parties dudit attachement et à servir de joint d'usure, et éventuellement d'étanchéité, à la liaison en question.A first technical solution is described in patent application FR9115957 (belonging to the same applicants) which consists in interposing, between the two parts of the attachment, an annular element, open or closed, interchangeable, made of metal or flexible material, suitable to ensure the desired retention between the two parts of said attachment and to serve as a wear joint, and possibly a seal, for the connection in question.

L'invention, objet des-présentes, a pour but de mettre en oeuvre une nouvelle solution, non équivalente techniquement à la précédente, qui consiste à intercaler, entre la partie mâle et la gaine plastique, une bague métallique qui comporte une première partie, cylindrique, pourvue d'une fente longitudinale, suivie d'une deuxième partie, également cylindrique, située dans le prolongement de la première, pourvue d'une fente transversale dans laquelle débouche la précédente, ladite fente transversale s'étendant sur la quasi-totalité de la circonférence de la bague, la zone non découpée assurant la liaison desdites deux parties entre elles.La paroi extérieure de la première partie de la bague est en appui total sur la paroi intérieure de la gaine de telle manière que, lorsque la partie mâle est dans sa position fonctionnelle à l'intérieur de la première partie de la bague, cette dernière adopte, sous la pression de ladite partie mâle qui possède un diamètre supérieur au diamètre intérieur de la première partie de ladite bague, une forme tronconique, que permet sa fente longitudinale, qui déforme à son tour la paroi de la gaine qui joue le rôle de silentbloc, l'action combinée de la bague métallique et de la gaine plastique ayant pour effet d'accroltre, de manière durable, la rétention de la partie mâle de l'attachement à l'intérieur de la partie femelle de celui-ci et d'assurer son auto-centrage et l'absorption des efforts masticatoires qui ne sont plus transmis directement à la dent support. The object of the present invention is to implement a new solution, not technically equivalent to the previous one, which consists in interposing, between the male part and the plastic sheath, a metal ring which comprises a first part, cylindrical, provided with a longitudinal slot, followed by a second part, also cylindrical, situated in the extension of the first, provided with a transverse slot into which the preceding one opens, said transverse slot extending over almost all of the circumference of the ring, the uncut area ensuring the connection of said two parts together. The outer wall of the first part of the ring is in full support on the inner wall of the sheath so that, when the male part is in its functional position inside the first part of the ring, the latter adopts, under the pressure of said male part which has a diameter e greater than the internal diameter of the first part of said ring, a frustoconical shape, which allows its longitudinal slot, which in turn deforms the wall of the sheath which acts as a silentbloc, the combined action of the metal ring and the plastic sheath having the effect of increasing, in a lasting manner, the retention of the male part of the attachment inside the female part of the latter and of ensuring its self-centering and the absorption of the forces masticatory which are no longer transmitted directly to the supporting tooth.

Les caractéristiques et les avantages de l'invention vont apparaître plus clairement à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit d'un mode de réalisation préféré de celle-ci donné à titre d'exemple seulement et représenté aux dessins annexés. The characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear more clearly on reading the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof given by way of example only and shown in the accompanying drawings.
