Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly to a PFNA femoral intramedullary nail. Background Art

[0002] Intertrochanteric fractures of the femur are a common fracture phenomenon in the elderly. Most patients are of advanced age, have poor bone quality, and have obvious osteoporosis. When fractures occur, femoral intramedullary nails are usually used to fix the femur through surgery to ensure the recovery and growth of the fracture site.

[0003] Most of the spiral blade nails in the existing PFNA femoral intramedullary nails adopt spiral blade technology to enhance the riveting force through spiral blades, so as to be applicable to fracture patients with osteoporosis, unstable fractures, etc. However, the degree of osteoporosis in the elderly varies. Especially for the elderly with poor bone quality, in the actual use process, the spiral blade nail is mainly used for tension. However, due to the small contact force point between the spiral blade and the femur, under the action of osteoporosis, the spiral blade nail will be displaced, causing tearing at the fracture site of the patient's femur and the action site of the spiral blade, resulting in secondary injury to the patient's bone. At the same time, the connection between the spiral blade nail and the femoral intramedullary nail is relatively weak. During the tension process, the spiral blade nail will break away from and shift out of the insertion hole of the femoral intramedullary nail, thereby causing damage to the femur. Moreover, the tail of the spiral blade nail is a flat section, which cannot provide tension, and further will cause the spiral blade nail to be displaced due to insufficient tension. Therefore, the present application provides a PFNA femoral intramedullary nail to meet the needs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a PFNA femoral intramedullary nail to solve the problem that the existing spiral blade nail is mainly used for tension. However, due to the small contact force point between the spiral blade and the femur, under the action of osteoporosis, the spiral blade nail will be displaced, causing tearing at the fracture site of the patient's femur and the action site of the spiral blade, resulting in secondary injury to the patient's bone. At the same time, the connection between the spiral blade nail and the femoral intramedullary nail is relatively weak.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In the above scheme, by arranging the spiral blade nail, during use, when the first inclined section is squeezed, the fixed section will drive the arc sleeve rod to move out of the arc sleeve, thereby causing the circular cavity to expand outward, and the expansion will drive the support frame to move outward together with the push plate, thereby causing the expansion ring to expand outward, and further, the expansion frame will be squeezed by external force, and the arc sheet will be deformed when the weakened groove is squeezed and bent, and expand outward. When the force-bearing section is squeezed, the U-shaped section will be squeezed and deformed, and at the same time, the resistance block will pass through the waist-shaped limiting hole. The resistance block will be connected and strengthened with the main nail through the anti-slip block and the anti-slip groove. When the second inclined section is squeezed When expanding outward, the gap between the adjacent second inclined sections will become larger, thereby allowing the outward expansion short plate to expand outward, thereby increasing the contact force point between the spiral blade nail and the femur, improving the pulling force of the spiral blade nail, and avoiding displacement of the spiral blade nail during use. At the same time, it also avoids tearing at the fracture of the patient's femur and the point where the spiral blade acts, further avoiding secondary injury to the patient's bones, improving the connection between the spiral blade nail and the main nail, avoiding the spiral blade nail from detaching from and shifting from the main nail when tension is applied, and enhancing the pulling force at the tail of the spiral blade nail, avoiding displacement of the tail when tension is overloaded.

[0017] By setting a thrust rod and using it in cooperation with a spiral blade nail, during the use process, when the seventh cylinder abuts against the first inclined section, the fixed section will drive the arc-shaped sleeve and the arc-shaped sleeve rod to expand in the first stage. Furthermore, the support and expansion frame and the push plate will push the outer expansion ring to expand in the first stage. Further, the outer expansion frame will expand in the first stage. When the sixth cylinder abuts against the first inclined section, through the above operation process, the outer expansion frame will expand in the second stage. When the fifth cylinder abuts against the first inclined section, through the above operation process, the outer expansion frame will expand in the third stage. When the fourth cylinder abuts against the first inclined section, through the above operation process, the outer expansion frame will expand in the fourth stage. When the second cylinder abuts against the stress section, the abutting block will strengthen the connection with the main nail in the first stage through the anti-slip block and the anti-slip groove. When the first cylinder abuts against the stress section, the abutting block will strengthen the connection with the main nail in the second stage through the anti-slip block and the anti-slip groove. When the rod tail moves towards the first pipe section, the outer expansion short plate will expand and become larger as the rod tail moves. Further, while the outer expansion frame and the outer expansion short plate can expand, the expansion size can be adjusted. At the same time, while the connection between the spiral blade nail and the main nail is tightened, the tightness can be adjusted. Thus, the riveting force between the spiral blade nail and the femur can be adjusted, enabling it to be suitable for use by the elderly with different bone qualities.

[0042] By providing the expanding assembly 222 and the outer expanding ring 223, during use, when the first inclined section 22242 is squeezed, the fixing section 22241 will drive the arc-shaped sleeve rod 22212 to move out of the arc-shaped sleeve 22211, and then the circular cavity will expand outward.

[0044] By providing the second expanding mechanism 26, during use, when the second inclined section is squeezed and expanded, the gap between adjacent second inclined sections will become larger, and then the outer expanding short plate 262 can expand outward, thereby enhancing the pulling force at the tail of the spiral blade nail 2 and avoiding the displacement of its tail under the condition of overloaded pulling force.

The resistance block 272 will be connected and strengthened with the main nail 1 through the anti-slip block 273 and the anti-slip groove 14, thereby improving the connection between the spiral blade nail 2 and the main nail 1, and preventing the spiral blade nail 2 from detaching and shifting from the annular groove 13 when tension is applied.

[0047] like Figures 2 to 5 , Figure 9 As shown, the thrust rod 3 is used to provide expansion force for the spiral blade nail 2, and the thrust rod 3 is connected to the spiral blade nail 2, and the thrust rod 3 is inserted into the spiral blade nail 2; the thrust rod 3 includes a first cylinder 31, a second cylinder 32, a third cylinder 33, a fourth cylinder 34, a fifth cylinder 35, a sixth cylinder 36, a seventh cylinder 37, an eighth cylinder 38, a screw 39 and a rod tail 310 connected to each other, and the diameter of the thrust rod 3 is gradually reduced from the first cylinder 31 along the direction of the second cylinder 32, the third cylinder 33, the fourth cylinder 34, the fifth cylinder 35, the sixth cylinder 36, the seventh cylinder 37 and the eighth cylinder 38. The connection between the first cylinder 31 and the second cylinder 32, the connection between the second cylinder 32 and the third cylinder 33, the connection between the third cylinder 33 and the fourth cylinder 34, and the fourth cylinder 35 are connected to each other. The connection between the first column 31 and the fifth column 35, the connection between the fifth column 35 and the sixth column 36, the connection between the sixth column 36 and the seventh column 37, and the connection between the seventh column 37 and the eighth column 38 are all provided with a first connecting section, the connection between the first column 31 and the screw rod 39 is provided with a second connecting section, and the connection between the screw rod 39 and the rod tail 310 is provided with a third connecting section. The outer end diameter of the rod tail 310 is larger than the inner end diameter, and the diameter of the rod tail 310 is gradually reduced from the outer end along the direction close to the end of the screw rod 39. The outer wall of the rod tail 310 conflicts with the inner wall of the outward expansion short plate 262, the screw rod 39 is threadedly connected to the first pipe section 21 through a thread, the outer wall of the first column 31 fits with the inner side wall of the force-bearing section 2711, and the outer side wall of the fourth column 34 conflicts with the inner side wall of the fixing section 22241.

[0048] By setting the thrust rod 3, during use, when the seventh cylinder 37 abuts against the first inclined section 22242, the fixed section 22241 will drive the arc-shaped sleeve 22211 and the arc-shaped rod 22212 to expand in the first stage. Further, the support and expansion frame 2222 and the push plate 2223 will push the outer expansion ring 223 to expand in the first stage, and further, the outer expansion frame 221 will expand in the first stage.

When the fourth cylinder 34 abuts against the first inclined stage, through the above operation process, the outer expansion frame 221 will expand in the fourth stage. When the second cylinder 32 abuts against the force-bearing section 2711, the abutting block 272 will strengthen the connection with the main nail 1 in the first stage through the anti-slip block 273 and the anti-slip groove 14. When the first cylinder 31 abuts against the force-bearing section 2711, the abutting block 272 will strengthen the connection with the main nail 1 in the second stage through the anti-slip block 273 and the anti-slip groove 14. When the rod tail 310 moves towards the first pipe section 21, the outer expansion short plate 262 will expand and become larger as the rod tail 310 moves. Further, when the outer expansion frame 221 and the outer expansion short plate 262 expand, the expansion size can be adjusted. At the same time, while the connection between the spiral blade nail 2 and the main nail 1 is tightened, the tightness can be adjusted, so that the riveting force between the spiral blade nail 2 and the femur can be adjusted to adapt to the use of the elderly with different bone qualities.

[0049] The technical solution provided by the present invention, by setting the spiral blade nail, during use, when the first inclined section is squeezed, the fixed section will drive the arc-shaped rod to move out of the arc-shaped sleeve, and further, the circular cavity will expand outwards. When it expands outwards, it will drive the support and expansion frame together with the push plate to move outwards, and further, the outer expansion ring will expand outwards. Further, when the outer expansion frame is in the state of being externally squeezed, when the weakening groove is squeezed and bent, the arc-shaped piece will deform and expand. When the force-bearing section is squeezed, the U-shaped section will be squeezed and deformed, and at the same time, the abutting block will pass through the kidney-shaped limiting hole, and the abutting block will strengthen the connection with the main nail through the anti-slip block and the anti-slip groove. When the second inclined section is externally squeezed and expanded, the gap between the adjacent second inclined sections will become larger, and further, the outer expansion short plate will expand outwards, thereby increasing the contact force points between the spiral blade nail and the femur, improving the pulling force of the spiral blade nail, avoiding the displacement of the spiral blade nail during use, and at the same time, avoiding the tearing of the fracture site of the patient's femur and the action site of the spiral blade, further avoiding the secondary injury of the patient's bone, improving the connection between the spiral blade nail and the main nail, avoiding the detachment and displacement of the spiral blade nail from the main nail during pulling, enhancing the pulling force at the tail of the spiral blade nail, and avoiding the displacement of its tail under the condition of overloading of the pulling force.

[0050] By setting a thrust rod and using it in conjunction with the spiral blade nail, during use, when the seventh column conflicts with the first inclined section, the fixed section will drive the arc sleeve and the arc sleeve rod to expand in the first stage, and then the support expansion frame and the push plate will push the outer expansion ring to expand in the first stage, and further the outer expansion frame will expand in the first stage. When the sixth column conflicts with the first inclined section, the outer expansion frame will expand in the second stage through the above operation process. When the fifth column conflicts with the first inclined section, the outer expansion frame will expand in the third stage through the above operation process. When the fourth column conflicts with the first inclined stage, the outer expansion frame will expand in the fourth stage through the above operation process. When the second column collides with the force-bearing section, the resistance block will be connected and strengthened with the main nail in the first stage through the anti-sliding block and the anti-slip groove. When the first column collides with the force-bearing section, the resistance block will be connected and strengthened with the main nail in the second stage through the anti-sliding block and the anti-slip groove. When the rod tail moves toward the first pipe section, the outward short plate will expand and become larger as the rod tail moves. Further, the outward expansion frame and the outward expansion short plate can be expanded and the expansion size can be adjusted at the same time. At the same time, the connection between the spiral blade nail and the main nail can be tightly connected, and the tightness can be adjusted, so that the riveting force between the spiral blade nail and the femur can be adjusted, so that it can be adapted for use by elderly people with different bone qualities.
