Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of prosthetic limb moulds, in particular to a prosthetic limb manufacturing mould without a parting line. Background Art

[0002] Prosthesis is an artificial prosthesis specially designed and manufactured by engineering technology to compensate for amputees or incomplete limb loss, also known as "prosthetic limb". Its main function is to replace some functions of the lost limbs, so that amputees can regain a certain degree of self-care and work ability. It is suitable for amputees due to diseases, traffic accidents, industrial accidents, sports injuries, etc.

[0003] There are many kinds of prostheses, including functional prostheses and aesthetic prostheses. There are also the concept of prostheses that can be controlled by electromyographic signals. The most difficult prostheses are the upper limbs. The lower limbs are relatively simple. The lower limbs only need stable support and can facilitate walking. The upper limbs involve more requirements, such as activity requirements, aesthetic requirements, and even sports requirements.

[0004] Functional prosthesis: Non-mechanical functional prosthesis has very simple functions. This type of upper limb prosthesis uses some modular kits to replace different prostheses in different situations. For example, there is a handle-type shape, which is convenient for holding long poles, a spoon-holding shape for eating, and a cycling grip prosthesis, which is suitable for bicycle handlebars.

[0005] There are mechanical functional prostheses. Most of these lower limb prostheses are equipped with joints and corresponding motion-assisting devices (hydraulic, pneumatic, spring), and even electronic power feedback systems, to achieve the purpose of arm movement to a certain extent.

[0006] Cosmetic prosthesis:

[0007] Purely made for aesthetic purposes, such as cosmetic prosthetic hands, are very helpful for amputees to build confidence and self-esteem. This type of prosthesis also requires makeup or painting, mainly painting skin folds and nail colors, in order to achieve the purpose of making the fake look real.

[0008] The main function of cosmetic prostheses is to look beautiful. Currently, the main material of such cosmetic prostheses is silicone. Colored silicone is the material that is closest to the touch and color of human skin, but the production of silicone prostheses requires mold injection. Silicone is relatively soft and difficult to support stably, so the prosthesis needs to have a hard filler as a skeleton inside, and then wrapped with a simulated skin silicone cover on the outside, also called a leather cover. Similarly, cosmetic prosthetic feet also have an internal design skeleton and a silicone mold cover on the outside. The skeleton is generally made of lighter wood and made into a fixed shape. The external finger shape is also mostly fixed. There are also a few prostheses that can slightly move the finger joints, but they are all prosthetic leather covers on the outside and supporting skeletons on the inside.

[0009] The design of the prosthesis skeleton is mainly based on function and support, while the leather case only involves durability and simulation effect. This kind of cosmetic prosthesis leather case needs to be a closed and complete skin sleeve like human skin on the outside to accommodate the prosthesis skeleton. When designing, a port will be opened at the rear end connected to the residual limb. The port is generally designed in the invisible sleeve or trouser leg for connection and installation with the residual limb of the human body. The silicone prosthesis leather case molded by mold injection has a mold line on its surface because of the mold. This is an inevitable defect in mold making. At present, the mold line will protrude from the outside of the leather case to form a line. After the silicone is molded, it has high toughness. If it is polished with sand, the mold line will be polished rough. There are many bubbles inside the silicone of the leather case. These bubbles are deliberately filled in during the injection molding of the leather case to increase the elasticity of the silicone of the leather case, making it closer to the touch and resilience of the skin. Therefore, the leather cover cannot be polished deep into the material, otherwise tiny pores will be exposed, resulting in an uneven surface of the leather cover. Currently, the main method is to cut first, then polish slightly to avoid polishing into the leather cover material, and then add color. If the thickness is accidentally polished too much and the bubbles inside the leather cover are exposed, it will also need to be repaired. This kind of polishing of the parting line is very cumbersome. To produce a simulated prosthetic leather cover, the color adjustment, injection molding and molding processes are not as time-consuming as the polishing and repairing of the parting line. Therefore, the polishing of the parting line greatly increases the difficulty of making cosmetic prosthetic leather covers.

[0010] Based on this, the present invention designs a prosthesis manufacturing mold without a parting line to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0011] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a prosthetic limb manufacturing mold without a parting line, which can optimize the mold installation process while directly molding the prosthetic limb leather cover in one step. The mold installation process is optimized, and the prosthetic limb leather cover is an integral structure without any parting line. Therefore, after the silicone leather cover of the device is injection molded, there is no need to grind the parting line, which greatly simplifies the production process and makes the production of the prosthetic limb leather cover more efficient. Precisely because there is no need to grind the parting line, the outer surface of the prosthetic limb leather cover is smoother and there is no parting line. There is no need for subsequent repairs and re-coloring of the polished area.

[0070] The artificial hand inner mold 6 is a closed hard mold, and its shape is the same as that of the artificial limb. The artificial hand inner mold 6 can be detachably inserted into the hand mold sleeve 3. The artificial hand inner mold 6 is a solid hand model made of resin. The rear end of the artificial hand inner mold 6 is a plane, and a plurality of artificial hand nuts 61 are embedded in the rear end of the artificial hand inner mold 6.

The rear ends of the back of the hand mold shell 1, the palm mold shell 2 and the hand mold sleeve 3 are sealed and locked with the port baffle 4 by bolts. The bolts pass through the positioning holes 42 and are locked in the embedded nuts 51 and the artificial hand nuts 61. Such a structure can limit and lock the positions of the back of the hand mold shell 1, the palm mold shell 2 and the artificial hand inner mold 6, which is convenient for the later injection of liquid silicone from the injection hole 42. The injected silicone sinks to the bottom, and the air in the hand mold sleeve 3 is discharged through the exhaust hole 41, so that the finally formed artificial hand leather cover 7 remains intact.

[0075] The method for making the mold comprises the following steps:

[0076] Step S1, externally scanning the forearm and palm of a real model to obtain the external shape and size of the forearm and palm; producing a sample of a hollow artificial hand leather cover 7 by 3D printing, wherein the 3D printed artificial hand leather cover 7 sample is an integrally closed silicone sleeve with an opening at the rear end;

[0077] Step S2, first make the port baffle 4, drill a plurality of positioning holes 43 on the surface of the port baffle 4, and the positions of the positioning holes 43 correspond to the positions of the embedded nuts 51 and the artificial hand nuts 61 one by one;

[0079] And pre-tighten the embedded nut 51 and the artificial hand nut 61 on the port baffle 4;

[0080] Step S3, embedding the port baffle 4 and the embedded nut 51 and the artificial hand nut 61 thereon into the artificial hand leather cover 7, and then injecting resin into the artificial hand leather cover 7, and obtaining the artificial hand inner mold 6 after the resin solidifies, and keeping the artificial hand inner mold 6 inside the artificial hand leather cover 7;

[0081] Step S4, keep the hand flat with the palm facing upward, lay sculpture clay on the bottom of the overall structure of the artificial hand leather cover 7 with the artificial hand inner mold 6, lay it into a flat sculpture clay base, and bury the back of the artificial hand leather cover 7 into the top of the sculpture clay base, so that the palm side of the artificial hand leather cover 7 is exposed above the sculpture clay base, and the thickness of the artificial hand leather cover 7 exposed and buried in the sculpture clay base is the same;

[0082] Cover the exposed part of the artificial hand leather cover 7 above the sculpture clay base with sculpture clay, so that the sculpture clay wraps the exposed part of the artificial hand leather cover 7 to form a spacer clay layer, and the spacer clay layer forms a palm-side annular convex ridge at the rear end of the artificial hand leather cover 7;

[0083] Bolts 14 and positioning nuts 22 are embedded on the top of the wrapping layer, and a groove in the shape of a positioning slot 21 is made. Resin is brushed on the outside of the spacing mud layer, and the palm mold shell 2 is obtained after the resin is solidified.

[0084] Step S5, turn the solidified palm mold shell 2 mold upside down as a whole, keep the back of the hand facing up and lay it flat, clean up the sculpture mud base on the back of the hand leather cover 7, and retain the spacing mud layer formed by the sculpture mud layer covering the palm side, the spacing mud layer forms a back of the hand annular ridge at the rear end of the fake hand leather cover 7, and the palm side annular ridge and the back of the hand annular ridge form a complete retaining groove 5 shape;

[0085] A layer of sculpture mud is evenly covered on the back of the hand of the artificial hand leather cover 7 to form a spacer mud layer on the back of the hand, and resin is brushed on the back of the hand to obtain the back of the hand mold shell 1 after the resin is solidified. The back of the hand mold shell 1 reserves the position and shape of the locking hole 12 through the embedded bolt 14, and the applied resin forms a convex block matching the mounting block 11 through the positioning card slot 21;

[0086] When using sculpture clay to make the spacer clay layer, it is necessary to make a convex block with the same shape as the positioning groove 52 on the back of the hand and the palm side, so that the convex block forms a groove on the back of the hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 when using resin molding, and the positioning block 32 is formed after the hand mold sleeve 3 is finally injection molded;

[0087] Step S6, separating the obtained back of hand mold 1 and palm mold 2, cleaning the interval mud layer between the artificial hand leather cover 7 and the back of hand mold 1 and the palm mold 2, and cleaning all the sculpture mud remaining outside the back of hand mold 1, the artificial hand leather cover 7 and the palm mold 2;

[0088] Step S7, take out the formed back-of-hand mold shell 1 and palm mold shell 2, clean the interval mud layer between the inner side of the back-of-hand mold shell 1 and the artificial hand leather cover 7 to form a back-of-hand mold groove 13; clean the interval mud layer between the inner side of the palm mold shell 2 and the artificial hand leather cover 7 to form a palm mold groove 23, after the back-of-hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 are buckled together, the internal back-of-hand mold groove 13 and the palm mold groove 23 form a cavity, put the artificial hand leather cover 7 sample into the cavity, and buckle the back-of-hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 to form a complete sleeve shell; a gap with the same thickness and shape as the interval mud layer is formed between the cavity inside the back-of-hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 and the artificial hand leather cover 7, and silicone is injected into the gap, and the silicone solidifies to form a hand mold sleeve 3, and the silicone at the rear port solidifies in the groove of the retaining groove 5 to form a mold sleeve retaining ring 31.

[0089] Similarly, the device is also suitable for the production of artificial foot leather covers and molds thereof, which only need to be made into two separate mold halves and the sleeve is made to achieve no parting line.

[0090] It should be noted that:

[0091] 1. When making the prosthetic leather cover, it is necessary to reserve space for the prosthetic skeleton. Therefore, when the leather cover is clamped for injection molding, the prosthetic hand inner mold 6 needs to be placed inside the hand mold sleeve 3 to fill the space of the prosthetic skeleton. The shape of the prosthetic hand inner mold 6 is basically the shape of the prosthetic skeleton. Because the final injection-molded prosthetic leather cover has a certain elasticity, the shape of the prosthetic hand inner mold 6 and the hand mold sleeve 3 can have a slight deviation. This error generally needs to be controlled within 2mm to ensure that the elasticity of the silicone can accommodate the error of the mold;

[0092] 2. The palm size is large and the arm cross-section is cotter pin, so the production of prosthetic holsters currently can only use a semi-open mold structure. The same is true for the production of prosthetic foot holsters. The size of the foot is larger than the cross-sectional diameter of the calf. Therefore, the production of prosthetic foot holsters can only use a semi-open mold structure. The semi-open mold will inevitably produce a mold line after mold closing and injection molding, and the later polishing of the mold line is very troublesome. After polishing, color correction is required, which not only has color difference but also is easy to fade. The present device adds a hand mold sleeve 3, which changes the original method of directly placing the inner mold after splicing the outer mold and then injection molding. After the hand mold sleeve 3 is added in the middle, the prosthetic holster is finally injection molded in the hand mold sleeve 3, and the hand mold sleeve 3 is a complete sleeve, and the prosthetic hand inner mold 6 is also It is a complete whole, and the fake hand inner mold 6 and the hand mold sleeve 3 can be polished normally during production. The hand mold sleeve 3 is made of high-density silicone material and does not require the internal injection of elastic bubbles or other structures. The device makes a more convenient hand mold sleeve 3 and a fake hand inner mold 6 as a molding mold for the fake hand leather cover 7, so that the entire fake hand leather cover 7 forms a complete sleeve, and it is an integrated structure, without a mold line, and does not require subsequent polishing. Not only is the process simpler, but the appearance of the final fake hand leather cover 7 is more realistic. The gap at the mold joint is at the joint of the back of the hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2, and there is no gap at the injection molding gap between the hand mold sleeve 3 and the fake hand inner mold 6, so there will be no mold line, the appearance is smooth, no polishing is required, and no subsequent filling and coloring are required. The integrated leather cover has uniform and stable coloring.

[0093] When the present invention is used, the hand model sleeve 3 and the artificial hand inner mold 6 are first taken, and a demoulding oil such as a degumming agent is evenly applied to the outside of the artificial hand inner mold 6; then the rear end opening of the hand model sleeve 3 is pulled and expanded, and the artificial hand inner mold 6 is inserted into the hand model sleeve 3, and then the outside of the hand model sleeve 3 equipped with the artificial hand inner mold 6 is clamped between the back of the hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2.

[0094] When clamping the back of hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2, the matching block 11 is matched with the positioning slot 21 one by one, and the positioning nut 22 is matched with the locking hole 12 one by one, and finally the back of hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 are locked by nuts.

[0095] When the back of hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 are assembled, the mold sleeve retaining ring 31 is clamped in the retaining groove 5, and the upper and lower sides of the mold sleeve positioning block 32 are clamped and matched with the positioning grooves 52 of the back of hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2.

[0096] Make sure that the hand model sleeve 3 is neatly inserted into the back of the hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2, then install the port baffle 4, align the positioning hole 43 of the outer ring with the embedded nuts of the back of the hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2, and lock them with screws, align the positioning hole 43 of the inner ring with the artificial hand nut 61, and lock them together with bolts.

[0097] After aligning and assembling the back of hand mold shell 1, palm mold shell 2, hand mold sleeve 3, artificial hand inner mold 6 and port baffle 6 into a whole, place the whole structure vertically so that the port baffle 4 is set horizontally upward; finally, inject liquid silicone raw material into the injection hole 42 until the silicone overflows from the exhaust hole 41, and the injection molding operation is completed. After the silicone in the mold is cooled and solidified, the port baffle 4 is opened, and then the back of hand mold shell 1 and the palm mold shell 2 are separated. Finally, the hand mold sleeve 3 is opened, and the artificial hand inner mold 6 is pulled out from its inside. The obtained leather cover is a artificial hand leather cover 7, and it is a complete artificial hand leather cover 7 without a mold line, which also enables the device to mass-produce artificial hand molds. Similarly, the device is also suitable for artificial foot molds, but the shape is slightly different.

[0098] This device can design a variety of different size molds, and users can choose according to size, just like choosing shoe size. Customized production is also possible, that is, when making the mold, the patient's other arm needs to be scanned and the shape of the residual limb is obtained after mirroring. The final artificial hand holster 77 also has no parting line, but this device is used for standardized mass production, which has higher production efficiency and its advantages can be more effectively utilized.
