Abstract
A tool assembly has a shaft (11) with a sleeve (21) slidable along it and hexagonal drive post (14) at its lower end to be received in a hex socket at the upper end (34) of a bone bolt secured in a patient's spine. A nut (33) to secure a connector (37) on the bolt, is temporarily stored on a short thread (16) on the shaft near the lower end. The sleeve (21) is slid down the shaft and a hex socket (23), its lower end is received on the nut. The sleeve is manually turned while a handle on a drive post prevents the shaft, and thereby the bolt, from turning. As the sleeve turns, the nut is turned off the short thread and down onto the bolt thread (34).
Claims
1. A nut starting tool assembly for driving a nut onto a threaded end of a bone bolt when the bolt is secured in animal bone, comprising: a shaft having a first end configured for fitting reception on a tool receiving end of a bone bolt, and having an opposite second end configured for rotating said shaft, said shaft further having storage means at an intermediate portion thereof for reception and temporary storage thereon of a nut to be installed on the threaded end of the bone bolt; and a sleeve coaxially disposed on said shaft and having a first end configured for fitting reception on the nut when temporarily stored on the intermediate portion of the shaft, and an opposite second end configured to be manipulated independent of said shaft to move the nut off said storage means and drive the nut onto the threaded end of the bone bolt when the nut is received within said first end.
2. The tool assembly of claim 1 and further comprising: a knurled surface on the sleeve adjacent the second end to facilitate rotary manipulation of the sleeve.
3. The tool assembly of claim 1 and further comprising: a tool receiving external surface at said second end of said sleeve and configured for reception thereon of a driving portion of a rotation tool.
4. The tool assembly of claim 3 and further comprising: -14-
a socket at the second end of the sleeve and configur for reception therein of a driving post of a torque applyin tool.
5. The tool assembly of claim 3 and wherein: the configuration of said first end of said shaft is 3.5mm hexagonal drive post; the configuration of said second end of said shaft is 1/4 inch square drive post; and the con iguration of said first end of said sleeve is 3/8 inch hexagonal socket.
6. The tool assembly of claim 5 and wherein: the configuration of said external surface at said second end of said sleeve is a hexagonal post.
7. The tool assembly of claim 6 and further comprising: a 1/4 inch square socket at the second end of the sleeve.
8. The tool assembly of claim 7 and wherein: the overall length of said shaft is about 10 inches; the overall length of said sleeve is about 5 inches; said storage means at said includes said intermediate portion being threaded at about 2 inches from said first en for threaded reception of the nut thereon.
9. The tool assembly of claim 8 and wherein: there are about three thread turns at the intermediat portion. -15-
10. Tlie tool assembly of claim 3 and wherein: said sleeve is guidedly received on said shaft so that the first end of said sleeve is centered on a common axis with the first end of said shaft.
11. Λ method of installing a nut on a bolt situated i animal soft tissue and secured in animal bone, the method comprising the steps of: installing a nut drive sleeve in a bo]t holder shaft; installing a nut on the shaft intermediate between the ends of the shaft; advancing the bolt holder shaft with sleeve thereon through the adjacent tissue and engaging the bolt holder on the bolt; engaging the nut with the sleeve; disengaging the nut from the shaft; and driving the nut along the shaft with the sleeve while guiding the sleeve on the shaft and thereby guiding the nut onto the bolt.
12. The method of claim 11 and further comprising the step of: holding the shaft with its axis colinear with the bolt axis while holding the bolt witii the shaft to control rotational movement of the bolt while the nut is guided onto the bolt.
13. The method of claim 11 and wherein the step of installing the nut on the shaft comprises: screwing the nut onto a short thread on tlie shaft such -16-
that the nut will not leave the thread as a result of axial force on the nut relative to the shaft, but only upon application of rotational force on the nut relative to the shaf .
14. The method of claim 11 and wherein the step of engaging the nut with the sleeve comprises: capturing the nut in a mating drive socket in the sleeve.
15. The method of claim 12 and further comprising the step of: tightening the nut on the bolt with a torque wrench coupled to a tool receiving external surface on the sleeve.
16. The method of claim 15 and further comprising the step of: removing the shaft with sleeve thereon from the bolt and adjacent tissue.
17. The method of claim 11 and turning the bolt to tighten the bolt in the bone.
18. The method of claim 17 and further comprising the step of: holding the shaft with its axis colinear with the bolt axis while holding the bolt with the shaft to control rotational movement of the bolt while the nut is guided onto the bolt.
19. The tool assembly of claim 1 and wherein: said sleeve has an overall length less than the overal length of said shaft.
