A dynamic bone screw 5, a static bone screw 28 and a fixed bone screw 6 are installed in the dynamic screw hole 4, the static screw hole 27 and the fixing screw hole 8 respectively. The dynamic bone screw 5 can move axially along the dynamic screw hole 4.

[0040] A tail cap 2 is installed at the end of the proximal end 3 of the intramedullary nail, an internal thread is arranged on the inner side of the proximal end 3 of the intramedullary nail, an external thread matching the internal thread is arranged on the tail cap 2, and the tail cap 2 is threadedly connected with the proximal end 3 of the intramedullary nail; a spring 7 is arranged between the tail cap 2 and the dynamic bone screw 5, a spring base is arranged below the spring 7, and the spring base is supported by the dynamic bone screw 5. A bone transport device for adjusting the movement of the bone segment is arranged on the intramedullary nail body 1. The bone transport device includes a sliding long groove 9 arranged along the axial direction of the intramedullary nail body 1, an outer guide sleeve 10 is sleeved on the outer side of the sliding long groove 9, and a corresponding inner guide sleeve 19 is arranged inside it, and the inner guide sleeve 19 and the outer guide sleeve 10 are fixed on the intramedullary nail body 1 through a pin 11, and corresponding bone transport screw holes are arranged on the inner guide sleeve 19 and the outer guide sleeve 10, and a transport bone screw 12 is installed therein; a connector connected to the inner guide sleeve 19 is arranged above the inner guide sleeve 19.

[0041] In this embodiment, the connecting member is a connecting screw 13, which is threadedly connected to the upper part of the inner guide sleeve 19, and an adjusting screw sleeve 14 movably connected thereto is arranged above the connecting screw 13, that is, the connecting screw 13 can move up and down with the adjusting screw sleeve 14, and a limited screw hole is arranged below the adjusting screw sleeve 14, and the aperture is smaller than the diameter of the tail of the connecting screw 13 to prevent 13 from being separated from the adjusting screw sleeve, and a lower magnetic body 16 is fixedly arranged inside the adjusting screw sleeve 14, and the lower magnetic body 16 can rotate under the action of an external magnet, thereby driving the adjusting screw sleeve 14 to move up and down, and the adjusting screw sleeve 14 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the intramedullary nail body 1. A pressure regulating spring 7 is installed in the accommodation cavity formed by the tail cap 2, the dynamic bone screw 5, and the inner wall of the proximal end 3 of the intramedullary nail. The sliding long groove 9 is set as a double groove, that is, it is set through the intramedullary nail body 1.

[0042] In the bone transfer operation, the bone that needs to be transferred due to bone defect is treated.
