Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of auxiliary devices for stretching experiments, in particular to a device for measuring shoulder joint stability. Background Art

[0002] The shoulder joint is the most flexible joint in the human body. It is composed of the humeral head and the glenoid cavity of the scapula and is a typical ball-and-socket joint. The glenoid cavity is small and shallow, with a labrum attached to the edge to increase the depth of the glenoid cavity. The joint capsule is thin and loose, with the long head tendon of the biceps brachii passing through it. The coracohumeral ligament, coracoacromial ligament and tendons outside the joint capsule strengthen its stability. Only the anterior and inferior part of the joint capsule is not reinforced by ligaments and muscles and is the weakest. Therefore, when the shoulder joint is dislocated, the humeral head often dislocates from the anterior and inferior part. After dislocation, the inferior glenohumeral ligament-labrum complex, the bone of the anterior and inferior edge of the glenoid cavity and other structures may be damaged.

[0003] Measuring shoulder joint stability can, on the one hand, clarify the function of the inferior glenohumeral ligament-labrum complex of the shoulder joint, which is of great significance for the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of shoulder dislocation; on the other hand, it can objectively evaluate the effectiveness of surgical methods.

[0004] A patent with publication number CN107328709A discloses a device for measuring shoulder joint stability. Although it can quantitatively load the humeral shaft through the mobile chuck of the MTS testing machine, measure the displacement distance of the humeral head relative to the glenoid fossa, and complete the mechanical test of the stability of the shoulder joint specimen. However, each time the scapula or humerus position is adjusted, the corresponding screws must be loosened before the position adjustment can be performed. After the adjustment is completed, the corresponding screws must be reset to lock the corresponding adjustment position. This process is not only cumbersome, but also time-consuming, and it is easy to cause errors during operation, thereby affecting the accuracy of the measurement results. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present application provides a device for measuring shoulder joint stability, which can improve the measurement efficiency of shoulder joint specimen stability.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present application discloses the following technical solutions: A device for measuring shoulder joint stability comprises: an MTS material testing machine, a humeral shaft fixing mechanism and a scapula fixing mechanism, wherein the humeral shaft fixing mechanism is mounted on a fixing fixture of the MTS material testing machine, and the scapula fixing mechanism is mounted on a workbench of the MTS material testing machine, and the humeral shaft fixing mechanism and the scapula fixing mechanism are connected via an installed shoulder joint specimen; the humeral shaft fixing mechanism comprises a humeral fixing fixture and a first humeral adjustment component, and the first humeral adjustment component comprises a first mounting frame, a first worm, a first worm gear, a first connecting shaft, a rotating block, The first connecting rod and the first crank handle, the lead angle of the first worm is smaller than the friction angle of the first worm, the first worm wheel is rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame and meshes with the first worm; one end of the first connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the first worm wheel, and the other end is rotatably connected to the first mounting frame, and the central axis of the first connecting shaft coincides with the central axis of the first worm wheel; the rotating block is fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft; one end of the first connecting rod is arranged on the rotating block, and a humerus fixing clamp is arranged on the other end of the first connecting rod; the first crank handle is arranged on one end of the first worm.

[0007] In the embodiment of the present application, when the position of the humerus needs to be adjusted, the first crank handle can be rotated to drive the first worm to rotate. Since the first worm is meshed with the first worm wheel, the rotational movement of the first worm is transmitted to the first worm wheel, causing it to rotate around its own central axis. One end of the first connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the first worm wheel, so the rotating first worm wheel will drive the first connecting shaft to rotate synchronously, and then the rotating block fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft will rotate, and finally drive the first connecting rod to rotate, so as to adjust the pitch position of the humerus fixing fixture arranged at the other end of the first connecting rod.

[0008] In addition, since the lead angle of the first worm is smaller than the friction angle, self-locking can be achieved, so that the first humeral adjustment component can be automatically locked in the current position after adjustment, and there will be no accidental position changes. In this way, on the one hand, the operation process can be simplified, the operation time can be reduced, and the measurement efficiency of the stability of the shoulder joint specimen can be improved; on the other hand, the high stability of the humeral position after adjustment can be guaranteed, ensuring that the state of the shoulder joint specimen is accurate and reliable each time it is measured, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0009] In some possible implementations, the central axis of the first worm wheel is parallel to the first direction, the extension direction of the first worm is parallel to the second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, the first humeral adjustment assembly further comprises a first seat bearing, and the first worm is rotatably connected to the top plate of the first mounting frame through the first seat bearing. In this way, the layout is more reasonable, and the structure of the first humeral adjustment assembly can be made more compact.

[0010] In some possible embodiments, the humeral shaft fixation mechanism also includes a second humeral adjustment component, which includes a second mounting frame, a second worm, a second connecting shaft, a second worm wheel and a second crank, and the second mounting frame is mounted on a fixing fixture of the MTS material testing machine; the second worm is rotatably connected to the second mounting frame through a second seat bearing, the central axis of the second worm is parallel to the second direction, and the lead angle of the second worm is smaller than the friction angle of the second worm; one end of the second connecting shaft is rotatably connected to the second mounting frame, and the central axis of the second connecting shaft is parallel to the third direction, the third direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and perpendicular to the first direction, and the other end of the second connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the first mounting frame; the second worm wheel is fixedly sleeved on the second connecting shaft and meshes with the second worm; the second crank is arranged on one end of the second worm.

[0011] In this way, the second worm can be rotated by rotating the second crank handle, driving the second worm wheel to rotate, and then the first mounting frame can be rotated by the second connecting shaft to achieve rotation adjustment of the humeral fixation fixture in the third direction. In this way, the humeral shaft fixation mechanism can be more flexibly adjusted in more directions, better adapt to different shoulder joint specimens and measurement requirements, and further improve the applicability and accuracy of the device in shoulder joint stability measurement.

[0012] In some possible implementations, the first crank handle is located on the first end of the first worm gear away from the first connecting rod, and the second crank handle is also located on the first end of the second worm gear away from the first connecting rod. In this way, the operator can switch between the two crank handles more smoothly, thereby making the adjustment process smoother and more efficient.

[0013] In some possible embodiments, a connecting sleeve is provided on the humeral fixing fixture, and the connecting sleeve is sleeved on the first connecting rod. The humeral fixing fixture also includes a first fixing bolt, and a first threaded hole is provided on the connecting sleeve, and the first threaded hole penetrates the circumferential wall of the connecting sleeve; the first fixing bolt cooperates with the first threaded hole, and can abut against the first connecting rod when the first fixing bolt is tightened. In this way, the position adjustment of the humerus in another dimension can be achieved by loosening the first fixing bolt and then driving the humeral fixing fixture to rotate around the central axis of the first connecting rod. When rotating to the desired position, the first fixing bolt can be tightened so that the first fixing bolt abuts against the first connecting rod, and the friction between the two is used to fix the adjustment position of the humeral fixing fixture. In this way, the humeral shaft fixing mechanism can be more flexibly adjusted in position in more directions, and better adapted to different shoulder joint specimens and measurement requirements.

[0014] In some possible embodiments, the scapula fixation mechanism includes a scapula fixation fixture, a rotating frame, a first scapula adjustment component, a second scapula adjustment component and a third scapula adjustment component, the scapula fixation fixture is used to fix the scapula; the scapula fixation fixture is arranged on one end of the rotating frame, and the rotating frame is used to drive the scapula fixation fixture to rotate around an axis parallel to the first direction and / or around an axis parallel to the second direction; the other end of the rotating frame is arranged on the first scapula adjustment component, and the first scapula adjustment component is used to drive the scapula fixation fixture to rotate around an axis parallel to the third direction; the first scapula adjustment component is arranged on the second scapula adjustment component, and the second scapula adjustment component is used to adjust the position of the scapula fixation fixture in the first direction; the second scapula adjustment component is arranged on the third scapula adjustment component, and the third scapula adjustment component is used to adjust the position of the scapula fixation fixture in the second direction.

[0015] In some possible embodiments, the third scapula adjustment component includes a base, a first lead screw, a first sliding nut, a first sliding plate, a first sliding support seat and a third crank, the base is mounted on the workbench of the MTS material testing machine; the extension direction of the first lead screw is parallel to the second direction, the first lead screw is rotatably mounted on the base through the third seat bearing, and the first lead screw thread lead angle is less than the friction angle of the first lead screw; the first sliding nut is mounted on the first lead screw and moves in the second direction with the rotation of the first lead screw; the first sliding plate is fixedly mounted on the first sliding nut, and the second scapula adjustment component is arranged on the first sliding plate; the first sliding plate is slidably arranged on the first sliding support seat, the first sliding support seat is fixedly arranged on the base, and the third crank is arranged on one end of the first lead screw. In this way, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the scapula in the second direction, the moving distance of the first sliding nut in the second direction can be controlled by controlling the rotation angle of the first lead screw. Since the first sliding plate is fixedly connected to the first sliding nut, the movement of the first sliding nut will drive the first sliding plate to move synchronously, thereby causing the second scapula adjustment component and subsequent related components arranged on the first sliding plate to be displaced in the second direction, thereby achieving the position adjustment of the scapula in the second direction. In addition, since the lead angle of the first lead screw is smaller than its friction angle, when there is no external force driving the first lead screw to rotate in the opposite direction, the first sliding nut will not move in the opposite direction by itself due to the external force, and thus the adjusted position can be automatically locked. In this way, on the one hand, the operation process can be further simplified, the operation time can be reduced, and the measurement efficiency of the stability of the shoulder joint specimen can be improved; on the other hand, the high stability of the humeral position after adjustment can be further guaranteed.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the second scapula adjustment assembly includes a second lead screw, a second sliding nut, a second sliding plate, a second sliding support seat, and a fourth crank, the extension direction of the second lead screw is parallel to the first direction, the second lead screw is rotatably mounted on the first sliding plate through a fourth seat bearing, and the second lead screw thread lead angle is smaller than the friction angle of the second lead screw; the second sliding nut is mounted on the second lead screw and moves in the first direction with the rotation of the second lead screw; the second sliding plate is fixedly mounted on the second sliding nut, and the first scapula adjustment assembly is arranged on the second sliding plate; the second sliding plate is slidably arranged on the second sliding support seat, the second sliding support seat is fixedly arranged on the first sliding plate, and the fourth crank is arranged on one end of the second lead screw. In this way, the position adjustment of the scapula fixing fixture in the first direction and the automatic locking after adjustment can be achieved.

[0017] In some possible embodiments, the first scapula adjustment assembly includes a third worm, a third worm wheel, a second connecting rod and a fifth rocker, wherein the third worm is rotatably arranged on the second sliding plate through a fifth seat bearing, and the lead angle of the third worm is smaller than the friction angle of the third worm; the third worm wheel is rotatably arranged on the second sliding plate, and the central axis of the third worm wheel is parallel to the third direction, and the third worm wheel is meshed with the third worm; one end of the second connecting rod is fixedly connected to the third worm wheel, and the other end of the second connecting rod is connected to the rotating frame, and the central axis of the second connecting rod coincides with the central axis of the third worm wheel; the fifth rocker is arranged on one end of the third worm. In this way, the third worm can be driven to rotate by rotating the fifth rocker, and the rotation of the third worm drives the third worm wheel to rotate around its central axis parallel to the third direction, thereby driving the second connecting rod to rotate, so that the rotating frame rotates around the axis parallel to the third direction, so as to achieve the angle adjustment of the scapula fixing fixture, and at the same time, because the lead angle of the third worm is smaller than the friction angle, it has a self-locking characteristic, and the adjustment position can be automatically locked after adjustment.

[0018] In some possible embodiments, the second connecting rod includes a first sub-rod and a second sub-rod, the first sub-rod is provided with a telescopic hole, and the central axis of the telescopic hole coincides with the central axis of the first sub-rod; the first scapula adjustment assembly also includes a second fixing bolt, the circumferential outer wall surface of the first sub-rod is provided with a second threaded hole, and the second threaded hole penetrates the circumferential wall surface of the first sub-rod; the second fixing bolt cooperates with the second threaded hole, and can abut against the second sub-rod when the second fixing bolt is tightened. In this way, the telescopic hole on the first sub-rod can be used to adjust the length of the second connecting rod to better adapt to different relative positions of the scapula and humerus. Specifically, the telescopic and fixed state of the second sub-rod relative to the first sub-rod can be controlled by loosening and tightening the second fixing bolt, so as to achieve adjustment of the scapula fixing fixture in the third direction, and the fixation is achieved by relying on the friction between the second fixing bolt and the second sub-rod, so as to ensure that the length of the adjusted second connecting rod is stable and reliable.

For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0025] See also Figure 1 Combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a device for measuring shoulder joint stability, including: an MTS material testing machine (not shown in the figure), a humeral shaft fixing mechanism 1 and a scapula fixing mechanism 2, wherein the humeral shaft fixing mechanism 1 is mounted on a fixing fixture of the MTS material testing machine, and the scapula fixing mechanism 2 is mounted on a workbench of the MTS material testing machine, and the humeral shaft fixing mechanism 1 and the scapula fixing mechanism 2 are connected via an installed shoulder joint specimen (not shown in the figure); the humeral shaft fixing mechanism 1 includes a humeral fixing fixture 11 and a first humeral adjustment component 12. It can be understood that the humeral fixing fixture 11 can be designed with reference to the circular fixture in the prior art mentioned in the background technology, and its use method is the same as that of the circular fixture, which will not be described in detail here.

[0026] The first humeral adjustment component 12 includes a first mounting frame 121, a first worm 122, a first worm wheel 123, a first connecting shaft 124, a rotating block 125, a first connecting rod 126 and a first crank 127. The lead angle of the first worm 122 is less than the friction angle of the first worm 122. The first worm wheel 123 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting frame 121 and meshes with the first worm 122. One end of the first connecting shaft 124 is fixedly connected to the first worm wheel 123. For example, the first connecting shaft 124 and the first worm wheel 123 can be fixedly connected by screw connection, clamping, welding and the like. Specifically, the first connecting shaft 124 can be directly fixedly connected to the first worm wheel 123, or can be indirectly fixedly connected to the first worm wheel 123 by a structure such as a connecting plate. It can be understood that the fixed connection method between the subsequent components can be designed with reference to the connection method between the first connecting shaft 124 and the first worm wheel 123, and no further description is given.

[0027] The other end is rotatably connected to the first mounting frame 121, and the central axis of the first connecting shaft 124 coincides with the central axis of the first worm gear 123; the rotating block 125 is fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft 124; one end of the first connecting rod 126 is set on the rotating block 125, and the other end of the first connecting rod 126 is provided with a humerus fixing clamp 11; the first crank handle 127 is set on one end of the first worm gear 122.

[0028] In this way, when the humerus position needs to be adjusted, the first crank handle 127 can be rotated to drive the first worm 122 to rotate. Since the first worm 122 is meshed with the first worm wheel 123, the rotational movement of the first worm 122 is transmitted to the first worm wheel 123, causing it to rotate around its own central axis. Since one end of the first connecting shaft 124 is fixedly connected to the first worm wheel 123, the rotating first worm wheel 123 will drive the first connecting shaft 124 to rotate synchronously, thereby causing the rotating block 125 fixedly sleeved on the first connecting shaft 124 to rotate, and finally driving the first connecting rod 126 to rotate, thereby adjusting the pitch position of the humerus fixing fixture 11 set at the other end of the first connecting rod 126.

[0029] In addition, since the lead angle of the first worm 122 is smaller than the friction angle, self-locking can be achieved, so that the first humeral adjustment component 12 can be automatically locked in the current position after adjustment, and there will be no accidental position change. In this way, on the one hand, the operation process can be simplified, the operation time can be reduced, and the measurement efficiency of the stability of the shoulder joint specimen can be improved; on the other hand, the high stability of the humeral position after adjustment can be guaranteed, ensuring that the state of the shoulder joint specimen is accurate and reliable each time it is measured, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0030] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the central axis of the first worm wheel 123 is parallel to the first direction, the extension direction of the first worm 122 is parallel to the second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the first humeral adjustment component 12 further includes a first seat bearing 1221, and the first worm 122 is rotatably connected to the top plate of the first mounting frame 121 through the first seat bearing 1221. In this way, the layout is more reasonable, and the structure of the first humeral adjustment component 12 can be made more compact.

[0032] In this way, the second worm 132 can be rotated by rotating the second crank 135, driving the second worm wheel 134 to rotate, and then the first mounting frame 121 can be rotated by the second connecting shaft 133 to achieve the rotation adjustment of the humeral fixation fixture 11 in the third direction. In this way, the humeral shaft fixation mechanism 1 can be more flexibly adjusted in more directions, better adapted to different shoulder joint specimens and measurement requirements, and further improve the applicability and accuracy of the device in the shoulder joint stability measurement.

In this way, the position adjustment of the humerus in another dimension can be achieved by loosening the first fixing bolt 14 and then driving the humeral fixing fixture 11 to rotate around the central axis of the first connecting rod 126. When rotating to the desired position, the first fixing bolt 14 can be tightened to make the first fixing bolt 14 abut against the first connecting rod 126, and the friction between the two can be used to fix the adjusted position of the humeral fixing fixture 11. In this way, the humeral shaft fixing mechanism 1 can be more flexibly adjusted in more directions to better adapt to different shoulder joint specimens and measurement requirements.

In this way, when the position of the scapula in the second direction needs to be adjusted, the moving distance of the first sliding nut 253 in the second direction can be controlled by controlling the rotation angle of the first lead screw 252. Since the first sliding plate 254 is fixedly connected to the first sliding nut 253, the movement of the first sliding nut 253 will drive the first sliding plate 254 to move synchronously, thereby causing the second scapula adjustment component 24 and subsequent related components disposed on the first sliding plate 254 to be displaced in the second direction, thereby achieving the position adjustment of the scapula in the second direction. In addition, since the thread lead angle of the first lead screw 252 is less than its friction angle, when there is no external force driving the first lead screw 252 to rotate in the reverse direction, the first sliding nut 253 will not move in the reverse direction by itself due to the external force, thereby automatically locking the adjusted position. In this way, on the one hand, the operation process can be further simplified, the operation time can be reduced, and the measurement efficiency of the stability of the shoulder joint specimen can be improved; on the other hand, the high stability of the adjusted humeral position can be further guaranteed.

[0038] See also Figure 6 Combined with Figure 7In some embodiments, the second shoulder blade adjustment component 24 includes a second lead screw 241, a second sliding nut 242, a second sliding plate 243, a second sliding support seat 244 and a fourth crank 245. The extension direction of the second lead screw 241 is parallel to the first direction. The second lead screw 241 is rotatably mounted on the first sliding plate 254 through a fourth seat bearing 2411, and the thread lead angle of the second lead screw 241 is smaller than the friction angle of the second lead screw 241; the second sliding nut 242 is mounted on the second lead screw 241 and moves in the first direction as the second lead screw 241 rotates; the second sliding plate 243 is fixedly mounted on the second sliding nut 242, and the first shoulder blade adjustment component 23 is arranged on the second sliding plate 243; the second sliding plate 243 is slidably arranged on the second sliding support seat 244, the second sliding support seat 244 is fixedly arranged on the first sliding plate 254, and the fourth crank 245 is arranged on one end of the second lead screw 241. In this way, the position adjustment of the scapula fixing fixture 21 in the first direction and the automatic locking after the adjustment can be achieved. The specific principle is the same as that of the third scapula adjustment component 25, which will not be repeated here.

[0039] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, the first scapula adjustment component 23 includes a third worm 231, a third worm wheel 232, a second connecting rod 233 and a fifth rocker 234. The third worm 231 is rotatably disposed on the second sliding plate 243 through a fifth seat bearing 2311, and the lead angle of the third worm 231 is smaller than the friction angle of the third worm 231; the third worm wheel 232 is rotatably disposed on the second sliding plate 243, and the central axis of the third worm wheel 232 is parallel to the third direction, and the third worm wheel 232 is meshed with the third worm 231; one end of the second connecting rod 233 is fixedly connected to the third worm wheel 232, and the other end of the second connecting rod 233 is connected to the rotating frame 22, and the central axis of the second connecting rod 233 coincides with the central axis of the third worm wheel 232; the fifth rocker 234 is disposed on one end of the third worm 231. In this way, the third worm 231 can be driven to rotate by rotating the fifth crank handle 234. The rotation of the third worm 231 drives the third worm wheel 232 to rotate around its central axis parallel to the third direction, thereby driving the second connecting rod 233 to rotate, and the rotating frame 22 to rotate around the axis parallel to the third direction, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the scapula fixing clamp 21. At the same time, because the lead angle of the third worm 231 is smaller than the friction angle, it has a self-locking property and can automatically lock the adjustment position after adjustment.

[0040] See also Figure 8In some embodiments, the second connecting rod 233 includes a first sub-rod 2331 and a second sub-rod 2332. The first sub-rod 2331 is provided with a telescopic hole, and the central axis of the telescopic hole coincides with the central axis of the first sub-rod 2331; the second sub-rod 2332 is inserted into the telescopic hole. The first scapula adjustment assembly 23 also includes a second fixing bolt 235. The circumferential outer wall surface of the first sub-rod 2331 is provided with a second threaded hole, and the second threaded hole penetrates the circumferential wall surface of the first sub-rod 2331; the second fixing bolt 235 cooperates with the second threaded hole, and when the second fixing bolt 235 is tightened, it can abut against the second sub-rod 2332. In this way, the telescopic hole on the first sub-rod 2331 can be used to achieve the length adjustment of the second connecting rod 233, so as to better adapt to different relative positions of the scapula and the humerus. Specifically, the second sub-rod 2332 can be controlled to extend and fix relative to the first sub-rod 2331 by loosening and tightening the second fixing bolt 235, so as to adjust the scapula fixing fixture 21 in the third direction (height direction), and the fixing is achieved by the friction between the second fixing bolt 235 and the second sub-rod 2332, so as to ensure that the length of the adjusted second connecting rod 233 is stable and reliable. It is understandable that the number of the second fixing bolt 235 and the second threaded hole can be multiple, and the multiple second fixing bolts 235 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the multiple second threaded holes.
