Benefits of technology

This patented technology relates to improvements for prosthetic knee components such as metal plugs that improve their durability against bone erosion compared to existing designs. These modifications involve adding an improved type of material called tungsten carboxylic acid (TCA) ceramia onto these materials instead of traditional cobalt chrome alloys due to its better resistive behavior towards oxygen ion transfer processes. Additionally, this modification involves depositing nanoparatty ceriamina layers around the tantum nitride ceramics during deposition under specific conditions like electric chemical vapor deposition (ECC). Overall, this new design helps prevent severe problems associated with current methods involving replacing worn parts from older ones.

Problems solved by technology

This technical problem addressed in this patented text relates to improving the performance of prosthetic knee joint replacements made up of materials that are resistive against bending forces while also having superior properties such as abrasion resistance and shock absorption capabilities compared to traditional metal alloys.

[0009] Specific implementation mode two: combination figure 2 and image 3 Describe this embodiment, the manufacture method of the titanium alloy artificial hip joint with wear-resistant ceramic coating of this embodiment is finished like this: Step 1, the titanium alloy femoral head 5 and titanium alloy hip cup 4 of pre-ceramization treatment are respectively Grinding and polishing to the mirror surface, the two clamps 7 are respectively installed and clamped on the bottom surface of the cylindrical groove 3 on the upper end surface of the titanium alloy femoral head 5 and on the titanium alloy hip cup 4, and the cylindrical groove on the upper end surface of the titanium alloy femoral head 5 is fixed. Shape groove 3 is filled with insulation shielding object 8, and an anode contact wire 6 is embedded in insulation shield object 8 simultaneously, and anode contact wire 6 is connected with fixture 7 on the bottom surface of cylindrical groove 3, and another anode contacts Th...

specific Embodiment approach 3

[0010] Specific implementation mode three: combination figure 2 This embodiment is described. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that the clamp 7 in the first step of this embodiment is made of aluminum alloy or titanium alloy. The fixture is in close contact with the titanium alloy femoral head 5 and the titanium alloy hip cup 4, thereby avoiding contact point ablation due to poor contact under high-voltage discharge conditions.

Abstract

The invention relates to a titanium alloy artificial hip joint provided with a wear-resistant ceramic coat and a manufacturing method thereof, which relates to the titanium alloy artificial hip joint and the manufacturing method thereof. The invention solves the problems existing in the existing caput femoris provided with a film of thin film thickness, low bonding strength of the film and a matrix, poor mechanical bearing strength and bad wear resistance and durable stability. The wear-resistant ceramic coat is coated on the spherical surface of the titanium alloy caput femoris and the surface of a titanium alloy articulation coax cup. A cylindrical slot that has fit connection with a femur handle is arranged on the upper end surface of the titanium alloy caput femoris. The method of the invention is that the joint is polished, shielded, installed and blocked; then the joint is processed by spark intensifying electrochemical oxidation to produce the wear-resistant ceramic coat; the joint is taken out, cleaned and dried; and finally, the surface of the joint is processed by polishing treatment. The artificial hip joint of the invention has the advantages of thick caput femoris film, strong bonding strength of the film and the matrix, good mechanical bearing strength and sound wear resistance and durable stability, etc. And the manufacturing method of the invention has simple process flows.
