Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical device technology, and in particular relates to a rotating multi-station synchronous bone dynamic system mechanical performance testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Bone power systems are a general term for specialized medical devices used in orthopedic surgery to cut, drill, and enlarge human bones. These systems typically use a handheld power tool as the main unit, and achieve multiple functions such as drilling or cutting by quickly changing the corresponding power head, such as an oscillating saw power head or a drill power head. This is a common multi-functional integration method, widely used in orthopedic surgery due to its integrated functionality. Especially with the medical industry's promotion of disposable surgical instruments, these low-cost, high-efficiency, high-value-added, and high-safety multi-functional integrated handheld electric saw and drill bone power systems are becoming increasingly popular.
[0003] As a medical device, the handheld electric saw and drill power system, especially for surgical operations involving cutting and drilling in hard bone tissue, has stringent requirements for its mechanical performance. For example, the output speed at the saw / drill tip affects surgical efficiency; prolonged operation can lead to overheating and thermal damage to the bone and soft tissues, hindering postoperative healing. Insufficient torque from the power head prevents cutting or drilling; excessive axial runout during high-speed rotation results in enlarged, tapered holes. Excessive backlash or pull-out of the power head under tension is unacceptable. For instance, if the drill bit becomes stuck in the bone and detaches from the motor when removing it after drilling in bone surgery, it constitutes a serious and potentially disastrous medical accident. Therefore, rigorous and accurate measurement of the mechanical performance parameters is an essential process in the production of every handheld electric saw and drill power system. Automated testing significantly improves production efficiency and ensures product quality, avoiding the inaccuracies and inefficiencies of manual testing. Recently, Chinese patent application 202211448394.8 disclosed a semi-automatic measuring device for the mechanical performance parameters of an electric saw drill power system. The device includes a sliding platform I mounted on a support table, a traveling fixture fixed to the sliding platform I, several test units arrayed on the traveling fixture, a test swing saw head and a test drill bit, a sliding platform II fixed to a gantry frame and perpendicular to the movement direction of the sliding platform I, a tension-clearance measurement module, a speed-axial runout-torque measurement module, and a swing angle measurement module sequentially fixed to the sliding platform II, as well as a pneumatic system, a control module, and a data acquisition and storage module. This invention achieves automatic transport by manually loading and unloading the test system onto the traveling fixture (including manual loading and unloading of the test drill bit and swing saw head), combined with the sliding platform II to achieve semi-automatic measurement of tension-clearance, speed-axial runout-torque, and swing angle. However, due to the serial and semi-automatic nature of the process, the detection efficiency still needs improvement. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0029] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] First, the composition of the bone dynamic system under test and its measured parameters are introduced to better understand the functional composition and implementation process of this invention for measuring the mechanical performance parameters of the bone dynamic system. For example... Figure 4-6As shown, the bone power system under test includes a main unit 4, and a oscillating saw head 13, a fast drill bit 12, and a slow drill bit 14, all connected to the main unit. The main unit 4 is an electric tool with a built-in battery and motor assembly that outputs mechanical rotary motion. The main unit 4 has several geometric features for subsequent positioning and fixing, including a positioning plane 401 and a cylinder 403, a saw bit positioning hole 405 that mates with the oscillating saw head 13 and the drill bits (12, 14), and an unlocking sleeve 402 for installing and locking the drill bit or oscillating saw head. It also includes a start button 404 for initiating the rotational motion of the main unit. The main features of the swing saw head 13 to be tested include a swing shaft 131 that can swing back and forth and a positioning cylinder I 132 that matches the saw drill bit positioning hole 405 of the host 4 to achieve power connection. By installing the swing saw head 13 to be tested in the host 4, power can be transmitted to the swing shaft 131. During surgery, the doctor will fix a saw blade on the swing shaft 131 to achieve the back and forth swing of the saw blade to cut bone tissue. Therefore, the back and forth swing angle amplitude of the swing shaft 131 is one of the parameters that must be measured. The external features of the slow drill bit 14 and the fast drill bit 12 under test that cooperate with the host machine under test are the same. The difference between them lies in whether they have a speed reducer inside to achieve the difference in output speed. Their main positioning features are a positioning cylinder II 144 that matches the saw drill bit positioning hole 405 of the host machine under test 4 to achieve power connection, a non-rotatable cylindrical surface 143 for subsequent coaxial positioning, a journal 142 of the extended rotatable power output shaft, and a slotted groove 141 at the end of the shaft for transmitting torque to the special drill bit in surgery. The drill bit under test (12 or 14) can achieve the rotational movement of its output shaft when installed in the host machine under test 4. That is, the journal 142 and the slotted groove 141 rotate together. The other parts are the housing for fixing and connecting. The parameters that need to be measured for the fast-moving drill bit 12 under test include the rotational speed of the output shaft, the runout value of the journal position 142 when the output shaft rotates, and the stall torque used to characterize the output shaft of the bone power system. In addition to measuring the above-mentioned rotational speed, journal runout and torque parameters, the axial clearance value of the connection between the drill bit 14 under test and the host machine 4 under test is also required when the output shaft of the drill bit is subjected to a certain axial tension, so as to characterize its degree of inseparability.

Each accompanying clamp 3 has several positioning grooves 301 and cylindrical holes A302 for fixing the host machine 4 under test, and cylindrical holes B303 for positioning and placing the slow drill bit 14 under test, equal in number to the number of host machines 4 under test.

During operation, the swing saw head 13 of each host machine 4 under test is accurately gripped and disassembled by the pneumatic grippers B 704 and placed in the receiving box 304 of the accompanying fixture 3.
