[0045] Preferably, the reinforcing material can also use degradable metal materials.

[0046] The beneficial effects of the present application are:

[0047] 1. By providing three density sections on the bone plate, the actual positions of the three density sections can be adjusted according to the different positions of the patient's bone injury, the porosity and pore size of different parts of the bone plate are adjusted to optimize the biomechanical properties of the bone plate, the bone plate provides biomechanical internal fixation for the implanted bone tissue, and at the same time, it can also ensure that the bone tissue receives sufficient stress stimulation to stimulate the self-repairing function of the bone tissue, realize the mechanical compatibility between the bone plate and the human bone tissue, and at the same time, save materials and reduce production cost.

[0048] The high-density reinforcing section is located at the position where the bone injury is the most serious, and is the position where the bone plate bears the most stress, and the pore size and porosity specification parameters can ensure that the strength of the center part of the bone plate bearing the most stress is high, and through sufficient strength, the mechanical support of the bone plate is realized, if the parameters are lower than the range, the center part of the bone plate is easy to break in actual use.

[0049] The pore size and porosity specification parameters of the middle-density supporting section can play a good auxiliary supporting role on the periphery of the bone damage position, and can also play an auxiliary role on the fixation of the high-density reinforcing section, increase the stability of the fixation of the high-density reinforcing section, and prevent the periphery of the bone damage position from being interfered by stress to cause secondary damage.

[0050] The low-density connecting section adopts a relatively large size of pore size and porosity, because the stress on both sides of the bone plate is small when the bone plate is actually stressed, and this range matches the actual stress, avoiding the stress shielding effect and avoiding the loosening of the bone plate after long-term use.

[0051] 2. The bone plate is prepared into a multi-filled pore bone plate structure framework by using a reinforcing material, and then the multi-filled pore bone plate structure framework and the base material are uniformly filled and mixed by ultrasonic oscillation, and then the mixed material is pressurized by vacuum hot isostatic pressing or vacuum cold isostatic pressing process, and finally the formed material is put into a high-temperature oven for sintering.

[0052] It can be seen that each step can increase the strength of the bone plate, and after the completion of the overall steps, the strength of the bone plate is obviously increased, so that the bone plate can withstand a higher impact force when in use, and a series of quality problems such as damage and fragmentation of the bone plate during use are avoided to the greatest extent, and the mechanical properties of the bone plate are greatly improved, and the long-term stable use of the bone plate is ensured.

[0053] 3. The bone plate product prepared by using degradable metal materials has obvious bone induction ability, specifically, the degradable metal materials used in the bone plate product, such as degradable zinc alloy and degradable magnesium alloy, will react with the body fluid in the human body, and the reaction will produce Mg ions and Zn ions, and the two kinds of ions can promote bone regeneration through three main strategies, including balancing osteoblasts and osteoclasts, adjusting the immune microenvironment, and promoting bone angiogenesis, realizing the bone induction effect, and effectively accelerating the recovery speed of the fracture site.

[0054] 4. The bone plate is prepared by mixing and filling degradable metal materials and medical plastics, and compared with the traditional preparation using metal materials, the overall weight is lighter, which can obviously reduce the bone loss of patients and avoid a series of chain symptoms such as osteoporosis and calcification of bone.

[0061] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0062] pass Figures 1-4 It can be seen that the high-strength progressive bone plate is provided with a multi-filled pore bone plate structural skeleton 6, which includes a high-density reinforcement section 1, a medium-density support section 2 and a low-density connection section 3. The high-density reinforcement section 1 is located in the middle position of the multi-filled pore bone plate structural skeleton 6, the medium-density support section 2 is located on both sides of the high-density reinforcement section 1, and the low-density connection section 3 is located on the outside of the medium-density support section 2.

[0063] The multi-filled pore bone plate structural skeleton 6 is formed by interwoven threads 8 , the density of the interwoven threads 8 is unevenly distributed, and filled pores 9 are formed between the interwoven threads 8 , and the sizes of the filled pores 9 are also unevenly distributed.

[0064] The density of the interwoven threads 8 on the multi-filled pore bone plate structure skeleton 6 changes gradually, and the density of the interwoven threads 8 on the multi-filled pore bone plate structure skeleton 6 decreases gradually along the direction of the high-density reinforcement section 1, the medium-density support section 2 and the low-density connection section 3.

[0065] The sizes of the filling pores 9 on the multi-filling pore bone plate structural skeleton 6 also change gradually, and the sizes of the filling pores 9 gradually increase along the directions of the high-density reinforcement section 1, the medium-density support section 2 and the low-density connection section 3.

[0066] In actual use, the position of the high-density reinforced section 1 is the location where the contact bone damage is most serious and the location where the bone plate is subjected to the greatest force. The pore size and porosity specification parameters can ensure the high strength of the central part of the bone plate where the force is greatest, and achieve the mechanical support of the bone plate through sufficient strength. If it is lower than this parameter range, the central part of the bone plate is prone to breakage during actual use.

[0067] The pore size and porosity specification of the middle-density supporting section 2 can provide good auxiliary support to the periphery of the bone injury position, and can also assist the fixation of the high-density reinforcing section 1, thereby increasing the stability of the fixation of the high-density reinforcing section 1 and preventing the periphery of the bone injury position from being interfered by stress and causing secondary injury.

[0068] The low-density connecting section 3 has a relatively large pore size and porosity because the two sides of the bone plate are less stressed in actual stress, and the range matches the actual stress, thereby avoiding the stress shielding effect and preventing the bone plate from loosening after long-term use.

[0069] In summary, by arranging the three-density sections, the actual positions of the three-density sections can be adjusted according to the different positions of the bone injury of the patient, and the porosity and pore size of different parts of the bone plate are adjusted to optimize the biomechanical properties of the bone plate. The bone plate can provide biomechanical internal fixation for the bone tissue of the implant site, and can also ensure that the bone tissue is subjected to sufficient stress stimulation to stimulate the self-repairing function of the bone tissue, thereby achieving the mechanical compatibility between the bone plate and the human bone tissue. In addition, the material can be saved, and the production cost can be reduced.

[0070] The high-molecular material is filled in the filling pores 9, and the outside of the multi-filled-pore bone plate structure framework 6 is coated with a layer of high-molecular material.

[0071] The multi-filled-pore bone plate structure framework 6 is provided with a plurality of fixing holes 4, and the plurality of fixing holes 4 penetrate through the high-molecular material coated on the outside of the multi-filled-pore bone plate structure framework 6.

[0072] The surface of one side of the bone plate is provided with a concave arc surface 5, and the shape of the concave arc surface 5 is arranged to better adapt to the anatomical structure of the human skeleton, so that the bone plate better fits the human skeleton. The bending curvature of the concave surface 5 is the same as the curvature of the damaged bone, which can further promote the anatomical reduction of the bone and achieve better fixation effect.

[0073] The plurality of fixing holes 4 are arranged at the positions of the high-density reinforcing section and the middle-density supporting section.

[0074] The filling pores 9 on the high-density reinforcing section 1 are small square filling pores, the filling pores 9 on the middle-density supporting section 2 located at the middle position are small square filling pores, the filling pores 9 on the middle-density supporting section located at the upper and lower positions are rectangular filling pores, the filling pores 9 on the low-density connecting section 3 located at the middle position are small square filling pores, and the filling pores 9 on the low-density connecting section 3 located at the upper and lower positions are wide square filling pores.

[0075] The width of the small square filling hole in the middle position of the low-density connecting section 3 is smaller than the width of the small square filling hole in the middle position of the medium-density supporting section 2.

[0076] The number of the fixing holes 4 is six, one fixing hole 4 is arranged at each of the positions close to the left and right sides of the high-density reinforcing section 1, and one fixing hole 4 is arranged at each of the middle positions and the positions close to the outer sides of the two medium-density supporting sections 2.

[0077] The distribution of the fixing holes 4 can ensure that the both sides and the middle of the bone plate are effectively fixed, and the stability of the overall fixation of the bone plate is increased.

[0078] Specifically, the fixing holes 4 are arranged at the positions close to the left and right sides of the high-density reinforcing section 1, the middle positions and the positions close to the outer sides of the two medium-density supporting sections 2, which can ensure that the positions of the high-density reinforcing section 1 and the medium-density supporting section 2 are fully covered and fixed, and since the low-density connecting section 3 mainly plays an auxiliary fixing role, the fixing hole 4 arranged at the position close to the outer side of the medium-density supporting section 2 can also play an auxiliary supporting and fixing role for the low-density connecting section 3, thereby ensuring that each position of the bone plate is effectively fixed during fixation.

[0079] The number of the fixing holes 4 should not be too large, because if the number of the fixing holes 4 is too large, the number of the drilled holes in the bone will be larger, the area of the stripped periosteum will be larger, and the damage to the bone will be larger, and if the number of the fixing holes 4 is too large, the distance between the adjacent fixing holes 4 will be smaller, and the bending amount between the adjacent fixing holes 4 will be smaller, so that the bone plate cannot be closely combined with the bone during the operation, which will cause the bone plate to press the periosteum and is not conducive to the effective healing of the fracture site.

[0080] The diameter of the fixing hole 4 should not be smaller than 1 / 4 of the width of the bone plate, and if the outer diameter of the fixing hole 4 is smaller than 1 / 4 of the width of the bone plate, the locking area of the fixing screw to the bone plate will be smaller, which will cause the bone plate to be not firmly fixed, the stress distribution to be uneven, and even cause secondary damage to the damaged bone.

[0081] The outer surface of the bone plate is provided with a round corner 7, and the round corner 7 can prevent the bone plate from causing damage to the surface of the bone tissue after being fixed.

[0082] A preparation method of the above-mentioned high-strength progressive bone plate, which comprises the following steps:

[0083] Step (1): preparing the reinforcing body material into a multi-filling-hole bone plate structure skeleton 6.

[0084] Step (2): Put the prepared multi-filled-pore bone plate structure framework 6 and the polymer material into the cavity mold respectively, fill the polymer material into the filled-pore 9 of the multi-filled-pore bone plate structure framework 6 in an oscillation mode, and then pressurize the uniformly mixed material through the cavity mold to obtain the gradual bone plate semi-finished product.

[0085] Vacuum cold isostatic pressing is commonly used for difficult-to-press powders, such as hard metals.

[0086] Vacuum hot isostatic pressing is mainly applied to the molding of high-performance powder material products, such as industrial production of powder metallurgy high-temperature alloy, powder metallurgy high-speed steel, carbon material, ceramic material, etc.

[0087] The oscillation mode includes ultrasonic oscillation and mechanical oscillation, and the difference between the two is that the uniformity of ultrasonic oscillation is higher than that of mechanical oscillation. When the mixing precision requirement is high, ultrasonic oscillation mode is usually used, and mechanical oscillation mode is used instead.

[0088] Step (3): Put the gradual bone plate semi-finished product into a high-temperature oven for sintering, and obtain the high-strength gradual bone plate after sintering.

[0089] Example 1

[0094] Step (2): Put the prepared multi-filled pore titanium alloy bone plate structure framework into the cavity mold, then fill the polyether ether ketone powder in the cavity mold, and fill the polyether ether ketone powder into the filling pores 9 of the multi-filled pore titanium alloy bone plate structure framework by multiple equal filling, and after each filling, the polyether ether ketone powder is uniformly filled into the filling pores 9 of the multi-filled pore titanium alloy bone plate structure framework by oscillation, the oscillation mode is mechanical oscillation or ultrasonic oscillation, the oscillation time is 26 min-33 min, and after uniform filling, the mixed material is pressure formed by the cavity mold, the pressure forming mode is vacuum hot isostatic pressing or vacuum cold isostatic pressing, the pressure intensity is 150 MPa-220 MPa, and the pressure holding time is 24 min-38 min. After pressure forming, a gradual bone plate semi-finished product is obtained.

After sintering, a high-strength gradual bone plate is obtained.

[0096] In example 1, the diameter of the titanium alloy wire in step (1) is 500μm, and the particle size of the polyether ether ketone powder is 400μm.

[0097] The pore diameter of the high-density reinforcing section in step (1) is 300μm, and the porosity is 20%, the pore diameter of the medium-density supporting section is 400μm, and the porosity is 30%, and the pore diameter of the low-density connecting section is 500μm, and the porosity is 40%.

[0107] Step (2): The prepared multi-filled porous carbon fiber bone plate structure framework is placed in a cavity mold, and then polyether ether ketone powder is filled in the cavity mold. The filling method is multiple equal filling. After each filling, the polyether ether ketone powder is uniformly filled into the filling pores 9 of the multi-filled porous carbon fiber bone plate structure framework by oscillation, such as mechanical oscillation or ultrasonic oscillation, for 26-33 min. After uniform filling, the mixed material is pressurized and formed by the cavity mold. The pressurized forming method is vacuum hot isostatic pressing or vacuum cold isostatic pressing. The pressure is 110-190 MPa, and the pressure holding time is 22-28 min. After pressurized forming, a gradual bone plate semi-finished product is obtained.

[0108] Step (3): The gradual bone plate semi-finished product is placed in a high-temperature oven for sintering. The sintering method is hot-pressing sintering, vacuum hot isostatic pressing sintering, gas pressure sintering, microwave sintering, discharge plasma sintering, or solid-state metal sintering. The sintering temperature is 305-365℃, and the sintering time is 0.6-1.2 h. After sintering, a high-strength gradual bone plate is obtained.

[0109] Hot-pressing sintering refers to a sintering process in which materials are accelerated to flow, rearrange, and densify under a certain external force (generally 10-40 MPa according to the strength of the mold material). The temperature required for hot-pressing sintering is 100-150℃ lower than that required for normal pressure sintering, but the driving force for hot-pressing sintering is 20-100 times greater than that for normal pressure sintering.

[0110] Hot-pressing sintering can achieve better material mechanical properties, reduce sintering time or sintering temperature, and reduce the amount of covalent bond ceramic sintering aids, thereby improving the high-temperature mechanical properties of the material.

[0111] The basic principle of vacuum hot isostatic sintering is to use high-pressure gas as a pressure medium to act on the material (including the enclosed powder, blank or sintered body), so that it is subjected to balanced pressure in all directions during heating, and the material densification is achieved by the combined action of high temperature and high pressure.

[0112] Using vacuum hot isostatic sintering can reduce the sintering temperature and shorten the sintering time, at the same time, it can greatly reduce or even not use sintering aids, improve the performance and reliability of ceramics, and is especially suitable for manufacturing complex-shaped products.

[0113] Gas pressure sintering refers to the application of a certain gas pressure during high-temperature sintering, usually in the range of 1-10 MPa, in order to inhibit the decomposition and weight loss of the material at high temperature, thereby increasing the sintering temperature and further promoting the densification of the material to obtain high-density products. Gas pressure sintering and vacuum hot isostatic sintering both use gas as a pressure transfer method.

[0114] Compared with hot pressing sintering and vacuum hot isostatic sintering, the biggest advantage of gas pressure sintering is that it can reduce the investment cost, prepare better performance, be suitable for complex-shaped products, and realize batch production.

[0115] Microwave sintering is commonly used for sintering of ceramic materials, which uses the dielectric loss of ceramic materials in the microwave electromagnetic field to achieve sintering temperature, thereby realizing the sintering and densification of ceramics.

[0116] Discharge plasma sintering, also known as "plasma activated sintering", is a new material preparation technology that directly applies a large pulse current to the mold or sample, and realizes material sintering through thermal effect or other field effect.

[0117] Discharge plasma sintering can ensure the uniformity of heating temperature, has fast heating speed, low sintering temperature, short sintering time, high production efficiency, and can produce products with fine and uniform organization, maintain the natural state of raw materials, and obtain high-density materials. It is commonly used for sintering gradient materials and complex workpieces.

[0118] Solid-state metal sintering is a sintering process using powdered materials, which can be molded into the desired shape, and can produce complex-shaped and delicate-designed parts. In addition, solid-state sintering can improve the mechanical properties of materials. Compared with traditional processes, the cycle time of solid-state sintering is shorter, which means that the sintering process can be completed in a few minutes instead of several hours or longer. This high productivity and rapid material development capability makes solid-state metal sintering more widely used.

[0119] More importantly, solid-state metal sintering can be performed at a lower temperature compared to conventional sintering processes, which is very advantageous because it helps to minimize energy consumption and reduce the risk of thermal damage to the sintered material. In addition, solid-state metal sintering is a versatile process that can be used for the densification of low-melting-point metals, ultra-high-temperature ceramics, and even the bonding of dissimilar materials that require non-uniform temperatures. Furthermore, solid-state sintering can be used for sintering both porous and fully dense components, making it a widely applicable process.

[0120] In summary, solid-state metal sintering has numerous advantages, including the ability to produce complex shapes, better mechanical properties, shorter sintering times, lower sintering temperatures, versatility, high-precision process control, and cost-effectiveness, making it an ideal manufacturing method for a wide range of applications.

[0121] In Example 2, the carbon fiber filament in step (1) has a diameter of 10 μm and a single filament count of 10K, and the polyether ether ketone powder has a particle size of 25 μm.

[0122] The high-density reinforcement section in step (1) has a pore size of 300 μm and a porosity of 20%, the medium-density support section has a pore size of 400 μm and a porosity of 30%, and the low-density connecting section has a pore size of 500 μm and a porosity of 40%.

[0123] The oscillation method in step (2) is ultrasonic oscillation, and the oscillation time is 30 min.

[0124] The pressure forming method in step (2) is vacuum cold isostatic pressing, the pressure intensity is 160 MPa, and the pressure holding time is 25 min.

[0125] The sintering method in step (3) is spark plasma sintering, the sintering temperature is 343 ℃, and the sintering time is 1 h.

[0126] Carbon fiber materials have the characteristics of high strength and low modulus, which can ensure the strength of the bone plate and avoid the problem of stress shielding effect caused by the high elastic modulus of traditional metal materials.

[0127] The fixing hole 4 is processed by hot extrusion or hot forming.

[0128] Existing bone plate fixing holes are usually machined, but machining holes can damage the continuity of the reinforcement structure and affect the mechanical properties around the holes. Hot extrusion or hot forming can effectively ensure the continuity of the reinforcement around the holes and thus ensure the mechanical properties around the holes.

[0129] The reinforcing material can also use degradable metal materials, which include degradable zinc alloy wires, degradable zinc alloy powders, degradable magnesium alloy wires, or degradable magnesium alloy powders.

[0130] The degradable metal materials will react with body fluids in the human body and gradually be corroded and degraded by the body fluids. For example, when the degradable zinc alloy wires or the degradable magnesium alloy wires react with the body fluids, magnesium ions or zinc ions are generated, which are released from the fixing holes of the bone plate. These two ions are the most important trace elements in bone tissue and indispensable active ingredients in human biological activities, and play an important role in bone tissue repair, which can effectively accelerate the recovery speed of the fracture site.

After each filling is completed, the polyether ether ketone powder is uniformly filled into the filling pores 9 of the multi-filled porous titanium alloy bone plate structure framework by oscillation, and the oscillation is mechanical oscillation or ultrasonic oscillation. The oscillation time is 22-39 min.

[0137] The difference between ultrasonic oscillation and mechanical oscillation is that the uniformity of ultrasonic oscillation is higher than that of mechanical oscillation. When the mixing precision requirement is high, ultrasonic oscillation is usually used, and mechanical oscillation is used instead.

[0158] When the reinforcing material is a degradable magnesium alloy wire and the matrix material is polyether ether ketone powder, the preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0159] Step (1): The degradable magnesium alloy wire is prepared into a multi-filled-pore degradable magnesium alloy bone plate structure framework by weaving.

[0160] The diameter of the degradable magnesium alloy wire is 580 μm-720 μm, and the particle size of the polyether ether ketone powder is 430 μm-590 μm.

[0161] The pore diameter of the high-density reinforcing section 1 on the multi-filled-pore degradable magnesium alloy bone plate structure framework is 250 μm-350 μm, and the porosity is 15%-25%; the pore diameter of the medium-density supporting section 2 is 370 μm-450 μm, and the porosity is 27%-35%; and the pore diameter of the low-density connecting section 3 is 370-550 μm, and the porosity is 37%-45%.

[0162] Step (2): The prepared multi-filled-pore degradable magnesium alloy bone plate structure framework is placed in a cavity mold, and then the cavity mold is filled with polyether ether ketone powder. The filling is performed in multiple equal fillings. After each filling, the polyether ether ketone powder is uniformly filled into the filling pores 9 of the multi-pore magnesium alloy bone plate structure framework by means of oscillation, such as mechanical oscillation or ultrasonic oscillation.

The sintering temperature is 280℃-420℃, and the sintering time is 0.6h-1.2h. After sintering, a high-strength degradable gradual bone plate is obtained.

[0164] In Example 5, the diameter of the degradable magnesium alloy wire in step (1) is 680 μm, and the particle size of the polyether ether ketone powder is 500 μm.

[0165] The pore diameter of the high-density reinforcing section 1 in step (1) is 300 μm, and the porosity is 20%. The pore diameter of the medium-density supporting section 2 is 400 μm, and the porosity is 30%. The pore diameter of the low-density connecting section 3 is 500 μm, and the porosity is 40%.

[0171] It can be seen that each step can increase the strength of the bone plate, and after the completion of the overall steps, the strength of the bone plate is obviously enhanced, so that the bone plate can bear a high load impact force when in use, and a series of quality problems such as damage and fragmentation of the bone plate during use are avoided to the greatest extent, greatly improving the overall mechanical properties of the bone plate and ensuring that the bone plate can be used stably for a long time.

[0172] Moreover, by using degradable metal materials as reinforced materials, the bone plate product prepared by the preparation method has obvious bone induction ability, specifically, the degradable metal materials used in the bone plate product, such as degradable zinc alloy and degradable magnesium alloy, will react with the body fluid in the human body, and the reaction will produce Mg ions and Zn ions, which can promote bone regeneration through three main strategies, including balancing osteoblasts and osteoclasts, regulating immune microenvironment and promoting bone angiogenesis, and finally achieving the effect of bone induction.

[0175] Secondly, the high-strength progressive bone plate is prepared by using degradable metal materials and medical plastics, compared with the traditional bone plate prepared by using metal materials, the overall weight is lighter, which can significantly reduce the bone loss of patients, avoid a series of chain symptoms such as osteoporosis and calcification of bone.

[0176] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, which cannot limit the scope of the present application, so the replacement of equivalent components or equivalent changes and modifications made in the scope of the patent protection of the present application should still belong to the scope covered by the claims of the present application.
