  • DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • The objective of the invention, its structure, innovative features, and performance will become apparent in the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
  • With reference to FIG. 1 for a surgical drill of the present invention, the surgical drill comprises a drill bit 10, a driving device 11 connected and electrically coupled to the drill bit 10, and a smart module 20 electrically coupled to the driving device 11.
  • In a surgical drilling work, the smart module 20 continues monitoring and obtaining an instantaneous electrical signal, wherein the electrical signal is represented by one including, but not limited to, a voltage. The smart module 20 compares the instantaneous electrical signal with a reference electrical signal, and if the instantaneous electrical signal has a step drop with respect to the reference electrical signal, the smart module 20 will send a stop command to the driving device 11 to stop the operation of the driving device 11.
  • The reference electrical signal may be an absolute electrical signal or a sampling electrical signal. The absolute electrical signal is a built-in default value in the smart module 20. The sampling electrical signal is an average of all instantaneous electrical signals in a unit time during the surgical drilling work. The unit time includes a plurality of consecutive seconds, wherein the unit time may be fixed or rolling with the working time of the surgical drill. Assumed that consecutive four seconds are used as a unit time, and the fixed unit time constantly uses the [Nth to N+3th] seconds of the bone drilling work as the sampling time, wherein the sampling time remains constant. The unit time with the ascending unit time uses the 1st to 4th seconds, the second to 5th seconds, the third to 6th seconds (so on and so forth) as the sampling time of the bone drilling work, wherein the sampling time varies and ascends (or rolls) with the time of the bone drilling work.
  • With reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 for the schematic views of using a time domain method to show an instantaneous electrical signal, a sampling electrical signal (or a reference electrical signal) and a step drop in accordance with the present invention, the x-axis represents the surgical drill working time (sec) and the y-axis represents the electrical signal (voltage) of the driving device of the surgical drill. During the surgical drilling work, the smart module 20 obtains the electrical signal per second and uses it as an instantaneous electrical signal, and the smart module 20 also obtains an average of instantaneous electrical signals in a unit time and uses it as a reference electrical signal. In FIG. 2, the reference electrical signal is generated in a fixed unit time. For example, consecutive four seconds are used as a unit time, and the second to fifth seconds are used as the fixed unit time (FT), and an average of all instantaneous electrical signals in the fixed unit time (FT) is used as a reference electrical signal as well as a reference for comparing the instantaneous electrical signal per second. In other words, the instantaneous electrical signals at the sixth second and thereafter are compared with the reference electrical signal at the second to fifth seconds (FT). With reference to FIG. 3 for the reference electrical signals generated at the unit time of ascending unit time (for example, consecutive four seconds are used as a unit time, and the surgical drill working time at the 2nd˜5th seconds (AT1), the 3rd˜6th seconds (AT2), the 4th˜7th seconds (AT3), so on and so forth, are used as a unit time, wherein the unit time ascends or rolls with the bone drilling work. In other words, when the surgical drilling work is carried on to the sixth second, the average of the instantaneous electrical signals of (AT1) is used as a reference electrical signal of the sixth second. When the work is carried on to the seventh second, the average of the instantaneous electrical signals of AT2 is used as a reference electrical signal of the seventh second. When the work is carried on to the eighth second, the average of the instantaneous electrical signals of AT3 is used as a reference electrical signal of the eighth second, and so on and so forth. Preferably, the instantaneous electrical signal should be compared with the reference electrical signal that is happened closest to the unit time. In FIGS. 2 and 3, as the work is carried on with time, the smart module 20 constantly obtains the instantaneous electrical signals and compares them with the reference electrical signal until an electrical signal with a step drop shows up. In FIGS. 2 and 3, the step drop (SD) has a waveform with a steep drop. In other words, the instantaneous electrical signal drops drastically and shows a significant difference with the reference electrical signal.
  • With reference to FIGS. 4 to 9 for the bone drilling work executed by a surgical drill of the present invention, a drill bit 10 is provided for drilling from the outer side 31 to the inner side 32 of the cortical layer 30. In FIGS. 4 to 7, when the drill bit 10 has not drilled through the cortical layer 30, the rotating speed of the drill bit 10 is substantially constant, and the output voltage of the driving device 11 is also substantially constant, and the instantaneous electrical signal (voltage) obtained by the smart module 20 is substantially maintained at a standard level. The smart module 20 compares all obtained instantaneous electrical signals with the reference electrical signal. Since the instantaneous electrical signal and the reference electrical signal are maintained at a standard level, the smart module 20 will not output a stop command, and the driving device 11 of the surgical drill continues its operation. In FIGS. 8 and 9, when the tip of the drill bit 10 drills through the inner side 32 of the cortical layer 30, the rotating speed of the drill bit 10 increases drastically, and the current output of the driving device 11 increases, so that the voltage drops drastically, and the instantaneous electrical signal obtained by the smart module 20 has a step drop (SD) and shows a significant difference from the reference electrical signal, and the smart module 20 sends a stop command to the driving device 11 to stop the operation of the driving device 11. The automatic stop of the driving device 11 and the drill bit 10 reminds the surgeon that the drilling has passed through the cortical layer. The automatic stop also provides the safety effect of protecting the tissues, blood vessels, muscles, nerves and fascia behind the cortical layer and prevents them from being damaged by the surgical bone drill that drills through the cortical layer. Unless the surgeon turns on the power of the surgical drill again, the surgical drill will remain at the OFF status.
  • In FIGS. 10 and 11, the surgical drill further comprises a measuring device 40 for measuring a bone drilling depth, wherein the measuring device 40 is installed on the surgical drill and electrically coupled to the smart module 20, and the measuring device 40 is a non-contact distance measuring device including but not limited to a lightwave distance measuring module, an infrared distance measuring module, and a laser distance measuring module. When the surgical drill is turned on, the smart module 20 sends a first distance measuring command to the device 40, and the device 40 obtains a first distance (D1) from a light source emitting point 45 to an outer side 31 of a cortical layer 30, and the smart module 20 receives the first distance (D1). When the surgical drill is controlled to stop its operation by the smart module 20, the smart module 20 sends a second distance measuring command to the device 40, and the device 40 obtains a second distance (D2) from the light source emitting point to the outer side 31 of the cortical layer 30, and the smart module 20 receives the second distance (D2). The smart module 20 executes the operation of [D1−D2] to obtain a bone drilling depth value, and the bone drilling depth value is displayed on a screen display 41 of the bone drilling depth measuring device 40.
