DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an artificial hip joint with high lubrication properties.

Artificial hip joints can be used for diseases such as rheumatism and osteoarthritis,
It plays an effective and important role as a means to quickly restore joint function that has been impaired due to injury. 196
Since Mr. Chanley put into practical use the artificial hip joint made of the combination of the currently used stainless steel stem and high-density polyethylene (HDP) acetabular socket in 1999, metal materials have been used to construct the sliding surfaces of the artificial joint. A combination of HDPs is still the mainstream.

However, in such artificial joints, loosening tends to occur between the interface between the natural bone and the artificial joint member due to the torque transmitted by the friction of the sliding surfaces, and wear particles from the sliding surfaces tend to The issue of harm to organizations remains unresolved.

On the other hand, although artificial joints made of a combination of ceramics such as alumina and HDP have better friction and wear characteristics than those made of metal-HDP, they do not have the same sliding characteristics as natural joints. It was far from that.

In order to solve the above problems, a recess is provided on the surface of the femoral head ball that slides into the acetabular socket constituting the artificial hip joint, a porous body is provided in the recess, and the synovial fluid stored in this porous body is removed. By efficiently distributing fluid to the sliding surface of the joint, fluid film pressure is increased, resulting in an artificial hip joint with better joint characteristics.

This femoral ball B is made of ceramic materials such as alumina and zirconia. Among these, alumina ceramic is extremely stable and has excellent hydrophilic properties because oxygen ions are arranged so as to completely surround aluminum ions. It can provide superior lubrication properties on sliding surfaces compared to other materials.

A plurality of recesses C are provided at key points near the surface of the femoral ball B, and the recesses C are filled with a porous material E such as alumina or apatite. is mirror polished. The size of the femoral head ball B is approximately 22 mm to 28 mm in outer diameter, and the hole diameter of the concave portion C is 1 to 4 mm.
The average pore size of the porous body E installed at the bottom of the recess C is 30 to 400 μm, and the upper surface of the porous body E is located at a lower (recessed) position than the surface F. This prevents the upper surface of the porous body E from sliding against and damaging the polyethylene surface that forms the sliding surface of the socket.

In this way, by forming the recess C on the surface F of the femoral head B and placing the porous body E therein, synovial fluid can be actively stored and released as needed during sliding. , we were able to obtain superior friction and wear characteristics that are closer to those of a natural joint than with a femoral head that has only been mirror-polished. That is,
When the friction torque of the ceramic femoral ball B according to the present invention was measured using a joint simulator, a lower result of approximately 20 to 25 χ was obtained compared to the conventional ceramic femoral ball.

As described above, according to the present invention, synovial fluid is stored on the surface of the femoral head by a porous material, so that the synovial fluid has a lubricating function on the sliding surface between the femoral head and the acetabular socket. This will lead to a highly functional artificial hip joint with improved friction and wear characteristics, durability and high reliability, and will greatly contribute to improving human welfare.
