Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of application No. 202110807537.9, filed on July 16, 2021, and entitled "Orthopedic screw placement device and system". TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an orthopedic screw placement device and an orthopedic placement operation system. BACKGROUND

[0003] Pedicle screw placement surgery is a very common surgery, and pedicle screws play an important role in the treatment of spinal trauma reduction, deformity correction, etc., and the key to the success of pedicle screw internal fixation surgery is whether the screw can be accurately placed through the pedicle without damaging the neural vertebra.

[0004] Currently, there is no automatic or semi-automatic pedicle screw placement tool that can be directly used for orthopedic surgery robots. The known orthopedic robots are only used for navigation positioning to the lesion site, and the orthopedic placement surgery is performed by the doctor manually; or a low-speed power drill is used to manually operate the screw placement. When the doctor manually taps and places the screw, the doctor needs to exert a lot of physical effort, and due to the high hardness of the cortical bone, the doctor often needs to knock it in with the help of a hammer and other tools when manually reaming. This operation causes a relatively large impact force on the human body, which can easily cause accidental injury; in addition, the final tightening torque when manually screwing the screw cannot be effectively controlled. When using a low-speed power drill to tap and place the screw, the doctor lacks the feel of manually screwing, and it is difficult to determine whether the screw has been placed in place; increasing the navigation marker frame at the end of the tapping and low-speed power drill tools can track the position of the tool tip in the bone in real time, but due to human reaction and physiological fatigue, there will be a delay, resulting in inaccurate depth.

The present application provides the driving force of the linear reciprocating motion of the power drilling mechanism through the linear feed mechanism, and combines the driving control of the clamping mechanism by the power drilling driving device, so as to realize the bone surgery operation, to improve the operation efficiency and the accuracy of the bone surgery operation, and to avoid the accidental injury that may be caused in the previous manual bone surgery operation.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-5 In the embodiment, a bone surgery operation system comprises a power drilling mechanism 1, a linear feed mechanism 2, a surgical tool 6, a selectively used guide needle fixing mechanism 7, a cross laser system 8, a selectively used catheter mechanism 3, and a binocular camera 9. The bone surgery operation system of the present application is commonly used as an operation device for the bone screwing surgery.

[0033] The power drill mechanism 1 is connected to the linear feed mechanism 2 which generates linear reciprocating motion and drives the power drill mechanism 1 to linear reciprocating motion. The power drill mechanism 1 comprises a power drill driving device 12 and a surgical tool clamping mechanism 10 connected by the power drill driving device 12. The clamping mechanism 10 is internally provided with a surgical tool for orthopedic implantation, i.e. a surgical tool 6, and the power drill driving device 12 drives the surgical tool 6 to rotate. The power drill driving device 12 is generally a motor, and the power drill mechanism 1 further comprises a motor mounting seat 13 on which the motor is mounted. The motor mounting seat 13 is connected to the linear feed mechanism 2, so as to realize the linear feed motion of the power drill mechanism 1 driven by the feed mechanism 2 and realize the advancement of the surgical tool into the surgical site.

[0034] Specifically, the linear feed mechanism

[0035] 2 comprises a base plate 29 and a linear motor 20, a pair of linear guides 21, a moving seat 23, a photoelectric switch 230 and a sensing sheet 231 mounted on the base plate 29. The linear guides 21 have two sliders 210 which slide relative to the linear guides 21 and do not leave the linear guides 21. The moving seat 23 is connected to the linear motor 20 and the linear guides 21 respectively and driven by the linear motor 20 to generate linear reciprocating relative motion. Specifically, the moving seat 23 is mounted on the mover 201 of the linear motor and driven by the mover 201 to linear motion; at the same time, the moving seat 23 is mounted on the slider 210 and slides along the guide 21 together with the slider 210. In this embodiment, the stator 200 of the linear motor is arranged between the pair of linear guides 21. The linear motor 20 can adopt a flat plate type linear motor or a U-shaped slot type linear motor. The linear guides 21 are fixedly mounted on the base plate 29, and the linear motor 20 is mounted on the base plate 29.

[0036] A pair of photoelectric switches 230 are mounted on both sides of the base plate 29, and a pair of sensing sheets 231 are respectively mounted on the moving seat 23 and the motor mounting seat 13. Through the cooperation of the sensing sheets 231 and the photoelectric switches 230, the forward and backward positions of the power drill mechanism 1 during linear reciprocating motion are limited so as to avoid mechanical failure. The photoelectric switch 230 can adopt other limit switches for detecting and limiting the limit position of the power drill mechanism 1. The photoelectric switch 230 can be an infrared light sensor which can include an infrared receiving module and an infrared emitting module. When the moving seat 23 or the motor mounting seat 13 moves so that the sensing sheet 231 moves to the photoelectric switch 230, the infrared signal is interrupted. The information of the photoelectric switch is transmitted to the control mainboard or control center to control the opening and closing of the linear motor.

[0037] The power drilling mechanism 1 is installed on the moving seat 23 and moves with the moving seat 23. The motor mounting seat 13 of the power drilling mechanism 1 is connected with the moving seat 23 of the linear feed mechanism 2, specifically connected through the guide rod 17. In this embodiment, the linear bearing 18 is sleeved on the guide rod 17 in a relatively slidable manner, and the guide rod 17 is connected with the motor mounting seat 13 and the linear feed mechanism 2 at both ends, so that the relative position of the motor mounting seat 13 and the linear feed mechanism 2 is fixed.

[0038] The moving seat 23 is installed on one sliding block 210 of the linear guide rail 21, and the motor mounting seat 13 is installed on the other sliding block 210 of the linear guide rail 21, so that the motor mounting seat 13 and the linear feed mechanism 2 can move linearly and reciprocally relative to each other along the linear guide rail 21. The linear bearing 18 is installed on the guide rod 17, and the linear bearing 18 can move relative to the guide rod 17. The motor mounting seat 13 is fixed with the moving seat 23 through the guide rod 17, and the motor mounting seat 13 and the moving seat 23 can move linearly and reciprocally together along the linear guide rail 21. The linear bearing 18 is located between the motor mounting seat 13 and the moving seat 23, and is connected in series by the guide rod 17, so that the linear bearing 18 is driven by the motor mounting seat 13 and the moving seat 23 to move linearly and reciprocally together. The motor mounting seat 13 and the moving seat 23 are provided with shaft holes (not shown) for respectively installing one end of the guide rod 17, and the linear bearing 18 is provided with a through hole for the guide rod 17 to pass through.

[0039] The linear feed mechanism 2 further comprises a pressure sensor 26, which is fixed on the moving seat 23 and installed on the power drilling mechanism 1 through a sensor fixing block 260. The pressure sensor 26 is located between the linear feed mechanism 2 and the power drilling mechanism 1, and the pressure detection can be realized through the relative movement or interaction force between the linear feed mechanism 2 and the power drilling mechanism 1. The pressure sensor can complete real-time measurement of pressure, and can measure the resistance received by the surgical tool in the process of pushing in each process of the orthopedic implantation surgery, so as to avoid the occurrence of surgical accidents. The power drilling mechanism 1 comprises a reducer 11 and a reducer mounting seat 16, and the reducer 11 is used for installing and clamping the surgical tool 6. The reducer mounting seat 16 is fixed on the linear bearing 18 and can move linearly and reciprocally with the linear bearing 18. The sensor fixing block 260 is fixed with the pressure sensor 26 and the reducer mounting seat 16 respectively, and the pressure detection can be realized through the relative movement of the reducer mounting seat 16 and the moving seat 23. In this embodiment, the reducer mounting seat 16 is a cover structure, which covers the moving seat 23, the torque sensor 15 and the motor mounting seat 13. The bottom edge of the reducer mounting seat 16 is provided with a clamping groove (not shown) for clamping with the linear bearing 18. The linear bearing 18 is located between the moving seat 23 and the motor mounting seat 13, and the guide rod 17 passes through the linear bearing 18. The two ends of the guide rod 17 are connected with the moving seat 23 and the motor mounting seat 13 before and after the linear bearing respectively, so that the whole slides together.

[0040] The power drill mechanism 1 further comprises a torque sensor 15, a servo motor 12 (both the driving device and the motor are indicated by the reference numeral 12) and an adapter 14. The torque sensor 15 is installed on the moving seat 23, the servo motor 12 is installed on the motor mounting seat 13, and the servo motor 12 is connected with the torque sensor 15 through the adapter 14, so that the servo motor 12 can drive the torque sensor shaft to rotate, and the torque sensor shaft drives the corresponding surgical tool 6 clamped in the speed reducer 11 to rotate, thereby performing the related surgical operations such as channel establishment, reaming, tapping or nail placement. And the torque sensor 15 can detect the torque in real time. The torque sensor 15 can accurately measure the torque during the entire nail placement operation, thereby intelligently determining whether the surgical tool such as the bone nail has been placed in place, avoiding loosening of the bone nail in the surgical site (such as the pedicle) due to lack of fastening, and improving the success rate and accuracy of the operation.

[0041] The clamping mechanism 10 of the power drill mechanism 1 is used to clamp the surgical tool 6. The clamping mechanism 10 comprises a speed reducer 11, which is installed on a speed reducer mounting seat 16, and the input shaft of the speed reducer 11 is connected with the torque sensor 15. The servo motor 12 transmits the rotary motion to the speed reducer 11 through the torque sensor 15. The speed reducer 11 is connected with a quick release joint 110 for detachably clamping the surgical tool 6. The quick release joint 110 can adopt a structure of spring, steel ball and sleeve to facilitate quick and convenient disassembly and assembly of the surgical tool 6.

[0042] The nail placement device of the application further comprises a speed increaser 19 cooperating with the speed reducer 11, thereby meeting the different requirements of rotation speed in the surgical operation processes such as guide needle placement, reaming, tapping and nail placement.

[0043] When the guide needle 60 is placed, the speed increaser 19 and the speed reducer 11 are connected in sequence to realize high-speed output. When reaming, tapping and nail placement operations are performed, only the speed reducer 11 can realize low-speed and high-torque output, at which time the speed increaser 19 needs to be removed, and the quick release joint 110 behind the speed reducer 11 clamps the tools for reaming, tapping or nail placement operations. Figures 2-3 When the guide needle 60 is placed, the speed increaser 19 and the speed reducer 11 are connected in sequence to realize high-speed output. When reaming, tapping and nail placement operations are performed, only the speed reducer 11 can realize low-speed and high-torque output, at which time the speed increaser 19 needs to be removed, and the quick release joint 110 behind the speed reducer 11 clamps the tools for reaming, tapping or nail placement operations. Figures 4-5 When reaming, tapping and nail placement are performed, only the speed reducer 11 can realize low-speed and high-torque output, at which time the speed increaser 11 can not be used.

[0044] Specifically, when the guide pin 60 is placed, the speed increaser 19 and the speed reducer 11 are connected in sequence to achieve high-speed output, at this time the drill chuck 190 clamps the guide pin and is installed on the speed increaser 19, the speed increaser 19 is coupled with the speed reducer 11, the output shaft of the speed reducer 11 is connected with the input shaft of the speed increaser 19, and the speed increasing effect is achieved. The speed increaser 19 is provided with a drill chuck 190, the speed increaser 19 and the drill chuck 190 clamp the guide pin forward, and the speed reducer 11 and the quick release connector 110 clamp the reaming, tapping or nail placing surgical tool rearward. The quick release connector 110 is coaxially connected with the output shaft of the speed reducer 11, and the drill chuck 190 is coaxially connected with the output shaft of the speed increaser 19. The speed reducer 11 is connected with the power drill driving device 12. The output shaft of the speed reducer 11 is coaxial with the output shaft of the speed increaser 19. Therefore, the orthopedic implantation surgical tool 6 such as the guide pin 60 is connected with the output shaft of the speed reducer 11 and the output shaft of the speed increaser 19, clamped by the drill chuck 190, and driven by the output shaft of the speed reducer 11 and / or the output shaft of the speed increaser 19 to rotate the surgical tool 6 (guide pin 60).

[0045] Referring again to Figures 4-5 , the clamping mechanism 10 is a reaming / nail placing surgical tool two-in-one multifunctional clamping mechanism, which includes a speed reducer 11 and a quick release connector 110. The speed reducer 11 is connected with a torque sensor 15 and a power drill servo motor 12. The reaming cone 61 or the bone nail 62 connected to the extender can be quickly connected to the speed reducer 11 through the quick release connector 110. The speed reducer 11 can be connected with the torque sensor 15 through a screw, so that the servo motor 12 transmits the rotary motion to the speed reducer 11 through the torque sensor 15.

[0046] The surgical tool 6 is a tool used for orthopedic implantation surgical operation, including a guide pin 60, a reaming cone 61, and a bone nail 62 connected to an extender. The bone nail can be a pedicle screw. The surgical tool 6 is selected according to the operation plan of the orthopedic surgery.

[0047] The orthopedic nail placing device of the embodiment further includes a guide pin fixing mechanism 7 for positioning the guide pin 60.

[0048] The guide pin fixing mechanism 7 includes a fixed support 70 and a connecting rod mounting block 71. The fixed support 70 is installed on the bottom plate 29, and the connecting rod mounting block 71 is installed on the fixed support 70. Specifically, the guide pin fixing mechanism 7 clamps and positions the tail of the guide pin 60, the fixed support 70 is installed at the tail of the bottom plate 29 and is fixed by fasteners such as screws, and the connecting rod mounting block 71 is installed at the top of the fixed support 70 and is fixed by fasteners such as screws.

[0049] The guide pin fixing mechanism 7 further comprises clamping blocks 72, short connecting rods 73, long connecting rods 74 and fasteners such as hand screws 75. In this embodiment, one end of each of the pair of long connecting rods 74 is respectively mounted on the two sides of the connecting rod mounting block 71 and can rotate around the mounting point (pivot or hinge); one end of each of the pair of short connecting rods 73 is respectively mounted on the connecting rod mounting block 71 and can rotate around the mounting point (pivot or hinge). The other end of each of the pair of long connecting rods 74 and the pair of short connecting rods 73 is connected to the clamping block 72, fixedly connected, for example, the other end of the long connecting rod and the short connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping block by the fastener screw. The guide pin 60 can be clamped in the middle of the two clamping blocks 72 by locking the two clamping blocks 72 together by the hand screw 75 (which can also be other fasteners). The opposite sides of the clamping block 72 are formed with guide pin grooves, and when the two clamping blocks 72 are clamped, the guide pin grooves are closed to clamp the guide pin 60 in the groove. In this embodiment, each clamping block 72 is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting rod mounting block 71 by the one end of the long connecting rod 74 and the short connecting rod 73 arranged above and below. The bottom of the clamping block 72 is formed with a step to fix the other end of the long connecting rod 74 and the short connecting rod 73.
