Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical equipment, and more particularly to a screw insertion measurement device. Background Art
[0002] In orthopedic surgery, the stability of screws needs to be measured when they are inserted into bones. The angular momentum of the screw during insertion can reflect the stability of the screw. The angular momentum during screw insertion is usually referred to as torque, which describes the rotational torque applied when the screw is screwed into the bone. Angular momentum is of great significance in determining whether the screw is stable.
[0003] The result of torque multiplied by time is the change in angular momentum. In physics, torque (or moment of force) is the effect of a force that causes an object to rotate, while angular momentum is a quantity that describes the rotational state of an object. When torque acts on an object, multiplying it by the action time gives the change in angular momentum ΔL. The formula is: ΔL=τ×t, where τ is torque (the effect of a force on the axis of rotation, defined as force multiplied by the lever arm (the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the axis of rotation), measured in Newton meters), and t is the duration of the action, measured in seconds (s).
[0004] In order to measure the torque of screws inserted into bones and determine the stability of screw insertion, the existing technology (Chinese invention patent application publication number CN117643496A) discloses a personalized screw placement device for thoracic and lumbar screws. By connecting a torque measuring component to one end of the gripping assembly, the real-time torque can be measured during the screwing process. By measuring the real-time torque, the user can obtain information such as the hardness and density of the patient's bone.
[0005] Although the screw insertion devices in the prior art can achieve real-time torque measurement, since the existing measurement devices all rely on manual rotation of the measurement device to insert the screw into the bone, the torque is not constant during the manual force insertion process, but varies with the operator's force. Therefore, the torque value at each moment in time will be different. Since the calculation of angular momentum is based on the product of torque and time, when the torque fluctuates, assuming that the torque is constant will introduce a large error, which will cause the calculated angular momentum value to differ from the actual value. The error caused by this torque fluctuation will accumulate throughout the entire rotation process, resulting in inaccurate angular momentum measurement. Summary of the Invention

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0020] In the above scheme, a measuring component is set up, and the torque measuring component is driven by the driving component to rotate and insert the screw into the bone. During this process, the torque measuring component detects the torque value and adjusts the torque output to the torque measuring component to maintain a constant torque. The angular momentum can be more accurately calculated by the product of torque and time, improving the accuracy and stability of angular momentum measurement. Even if changes such as friction and resistance are encountered during operation, the torque output can be dynamically adjusted to achieve relatively stable torque application, which is more accurate than manual control. The torque output can be strictly maintained according to the set target value, avoiding fluctuations and instability caused by human operation, ensuring precise torque control, and eliminating the need for the operator to repeatedly adjust the force during operation. This reduces the workload and complexity of manual operation, while reducing the operator's fatigue, ensuring stable operation results, and reducing the burden on doctors.
[0021] By providing a stabilizing and wave-reducing positioning part, when the hexagonal drive part is inserted into the hexagonal hole of the screw, the pressure plate can push the movable block inside the hexagonal drive part outward, so that the drive seat is tightly attached to the inner wall of the hexagonal hole. Through the close-fitting design of the hexagonal drive part, the mechanical coupling between the hexagonal drive part and the screw becomes more stable and consistent. This stable contact reduces the angular velocity fluctuation during the rotation of the screw and makes the torque transmission more stable. Therefore, it can not only improve the accuracy of the operation, but also make the measurement results of the angular momentum more accurate, reduce the torque and angular velocity fluctuations caused by poor contact, and at the same time increase the friction between the torque driver and the screw, ensure a firmer contact, reduce the force loss or screw damage caused by slipping during operation, reduce the energy loss caused by uneven contact, ensure that the applied torque can be effectively transmitted to the screw, thereby improving the torque transmission efficiency, and can also reduce the wear caused by relative motion and extend the service life of the tool and screw.
[0022] By providing a stabilizing connection portion, when the driving seat moves, the connecting seat can be driven to move accordingly. Multiple driving seats are connected through the connecting seat, which improves the stability of the driving seat. At the same time, the connecting seat can also contact the inner wall of the hexagonal hole, increasing the overall contact area. The increase in contact area helps to evenly disperse the torque, reduce local stress concentration, ensure that the torque transmission is more stable and reliable, improve the stability during operation, and also improve the stability of the hexagonal driving portion. The connecting seat can also evenly disperse the pressure during torque transmission, so that the driving force is more evenly distributed on the inner wall of the hexagonal hole. When the torque screwdriver applies a large torque, it is not easy for the tool to slip due to insufficient local contact force, thereby ensuring reliable transmission of torque.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a screw insertion measurement device, including a measuring component 2, wherein the measuring component 2 includes a measuring part 21, and the measuring part 21 includes a shell 211, a top plate 212 clamped on the upper end of the shell 211, an electric push rod 213 fixed to the upper end of the shell 211, a pressure sensor 215 fixed to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 213, an adjustment seat 214 fixed to the outside of the pressure sensor 215, a torque measuring member 218 connected to the lower end of the adjustment seat 214 for measuring the torque during screw insertion, and a driving component 26 connected to the inside of the adjustment seat 214 and used to drive the torque measuring member 218 to rotate.
[0046] The pressure sensor 215 is used to detect the pressure value applied to the screw by the electric push rod 213. The torque measuring component 218 measures and times the torque when the screw is inserted and determines the torque value according to a preset value. The torque measuring component 218 is connected to the drive component 26 to adjust the power output of the drive component 26 according to the torque value.
[0047] The driving assembly 26 includes a motor 261 fixedly connected to the interior of the adjustment base 214, a second gear 262 rotatably connected to the interior of the adjustment base 214 and fixed to the output shaft of the motor 261, a third gear 263 rotatably connected to the interior of the adjustment base 214 and meshing with the second gear 262, and a turntable 264 rotatably connected to the lower end of the adjustment base 214, with the upper end of the turntable 264 fixedly connected to the third gear 263, and the torque measuring member 218 fixedly connected to the lower end of the turntable 264.
[0048] A slide rail 217 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 211 , and a slide bar 216 slidably connected to the slide rail 217 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the adjustment seat 214 .
[0049] By adopting the above technical solution, the bolt is placed at the lower end of the torque measuring member 218, and the electric push rod 213 is controlled to work and extend. The extension of the electric push rod 213 can drive the adjustment seat 214 to move downward inside the housing 211, and the adjustment seat 214 moves along the slide rail 217. When the adjustment seat 214 moves, it drives the torque measuring member 218 to move toward the bolt, thereby applying a certain pressure to the bolt. The force applied by the electric push rod 213 to the adjustment seat 214 and the bolt can be detected by the pressure sensor 215. When the pressure exceeds or is less than the preset pressure value, the electric push rod 213 can be adjusted to maintain the stability of the force applied when the screw is inserted. At the same time, the motor 261 can drive the second gear 262 to rotate, and the rotation of the second gear 262 drives the third gear 263 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 263 drives the turntable 264 and the torque measuring member 218 fixed to the turntable 264 to rotate.
[0050] The torque measuring part 218 is a torque screwdriver with a torque measurement function, which is composed of a torque sensor (the core component of the torque screwdriver, used to sense the applied torque value, and the sensor converts the torque signal into an electrical signal), a power supply (usually a built-in rechargeable battery or a replaceable battery, which provides power for the electronic part of the torque screwdriver), a microprocessor (responsible for processing the signal from the torque sensor and transmitting the processed data to the display screen, and can also perform other functions such as storage, alarm, peak hold, etc.), etc., which will not be described in detail here. By rotating the torque measuring part 218 and inserting the bolt into the bone, the torque measuring part 218 can detect the torque of the screw. When the torque is greater than or less than the preset torque value, the motor 261 can adjust the output torque (in many power tools, the torque is proportional to the motor current). ratio, so by controlling the motor's current, the torque can be indirectly controlled. When the torque exceeds the set value, the motor control system will reduce the current (and thus the torque), so that the torque of the screw remains constant, and the angular momentum can be more accurately calculated by multiplying the torque by time, improving the accuracy and stability of angular momentum measurement. Even if changes such as friction and resistance are encountered during operation, the torque output can be dynamically adjusted to achieve a more stable torque application, which is more precise than manual control. The torque output can be strictly maintained according to the set target value, avoiding fluctuations and instability caused by human operation, ensuring precise torque control, and eliminating the need for the operator to repeatedly adjust the force during operation. This reduces the workload and complexity of manual operation, while alleviating operator fatigue, ensuring stable operation results, and reducing the burden on doctors.
[0051] The torque and time during the entire screw insertion process are calculated using the formula ΔL = τ × t to determine the angular momentum of the screw. If the torque remains constant but the angular momentum is high, this may indicate that the screw rotation has continued for a prolonged period. This may be due to the screw entering deeper into the bone or being inserted a longer distance. A larger angular momentum may indicate closer contact with the bone, resulting in better tightening. A smaller angular momentum may also mean that the screw has been inserted for a shorter period of time and has not yet fully entered the bone. This may indicate that the screw has not reached the desired depth or that the screw length is mismatched with the target bone segment. A smaller angular momentum may indicate that the screw is not tightened enough, resulting in poor fixation.
[0052] like Figures 5 to 9As shown, the torque measuring member 218 is fixedly connected to a driving head 219 at the lower end, and a stabilizing and reducing wave positioning portion 22 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the driving head 219. The stabilizing and reducing wave positioning portion 22 includes a hexagonal driving portion 221 and a column 224 fixed to the lower end of the driving head 219, a connecting block 223 movably plugged into the inside of the hexagonal driving portion 221 and movably sleeved on the outside of the column 224, a pressing plate 222 fixed to the lower end of the connecting block 223, a second spring 225 sleeved on the outside of the column 224, and a spring 226 fixed to the lower end of the connecting block 223. The limiting ring 226 and multiple inclined blocks 227 on the outside of the connecting block 223, the multiple second movable grooves 23 opened in the hexagonal driving part 221, the multiple movable blocks 229 slidingly connected in the multiple second movable grooves 23, the inclined surfaces 228 opened on one side of the multiple movable blocks 229 and respectively matched with the multiple inclined blocks 227, and the multiple driving seats 24 respectively fixed on the other side of the multiple movable blocks 229, and the two ends of the second spring 225 are respectively connected to the lower end of the driving head 219 and the upper end of the connecting block 223.
[0053] Both sides of the movable block 229 are fixedly connected with side plates 231, and a first guide column 232 is movably inserted inside the side plate 231. Both ends of the first guide column 232 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second movable groove 23, and a third spring 233 is also sleeved on the outside of the first guide column 232. The two ends of the third spring 233 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the second movable groove 23 and one side of the side plate 231.
[0054] The lower end of the driving head 219 is also integrally formed with a resistance-increasing flange 220. When the lower end of the driving head 219 approaches the upper surface of the screw, the resistance-increasing flange 220 can contact the upper surface of the bolt, thereby increasing the friction between the driving head 219 and the bolt.
[0055] By adopting the above technical solution, when the bolt is placed under the torque measuring member 218, the hexagonal driving portion 221 can be inserted into the inner six holes of the bolt. After the hexagonal driving portion 221 is inserted into the inner six holes of the bolt, the pressure plate 222 can contact the inner bottom wall of the inner six holes. Under the force applied by the electric push rod 213, the pressure plate 222 contacts the bottom wall of the inner six holes. The pressure plate 222 can push the lower end of the connecting block 223 into the hexagonal driving portion 221. At this time, the connecting block 223 can move along the column 224 inside the hexagonal driving portion 221 and toward the direction of the second spring 225. The connecting block 223 applies a force to the second spring 225 to contract the second spring 225. At the same time, when the connecting block 223 moves upward, the inclined block 227 also moves upward with the connecting block 223. When the inclined block 227 moves upward, it can cooperate with the inclined surface 228. The inclined block 227 applies a thrust to the movable block 229 through the inclined surface 228, pushing the movable block 229 to move in the second movable groove 23. When the movable block 229 moves, the driving seat 24 is also driven to move. In this way, when the connecting block 223 moves upward inside the hexagonal driving portion 221, it can drive multiple movable blocks 229 and multiple driving seats 24 moves, and when the movable block 229 moves, it drives the side plate 231 to move, and the side plate 231 moves in the second movable groove 23 along the first guide column 232, and the side plate 231 can exert a force on the third spring 233 to shrink the third spring 233, and the multiple driving seats 24 can move toward the inner wall direction of the six holes in the bolt, and one side of the multiple driving seats 24 can be tightly attached to the inner wall of the six holes in the bolt. Through the design of the multiple driving seats 24 tightly attached to the inner wall of the six holes, the mechanical coupling between the stable wave reduction positioning part 22 and the screw becomes more stable and consistent, and this stable contact makes the angle of the screw rotated more stable. Speed fluctuations are reduced and torque transmission is more stable. Therefore, it can not only improve the accuracy of operation, but also make the measurement results of angular momentum more accurate, reduce torque and angular velocity fluctuations caused by poor contact, and at the same time increase the friction between the torque driver and the screw to ensure a firmer contact, reduce force loss or screw damage caused by slipping during operation, reduce energy loss due to uneven contact, ensure that the applied torque can be effectively transmitted to the screw, thereby improving torque transmission efficiency, and reducing wear caused by relative motion, extending the service life of the tool and screw.
[0056] like Figure 7 and Figure 10As shown, two third movable grooves 241 are symmetrically opened inside the driving seat 24, and the multiple driving seats 24 are connected by multiple stabilizing connecting parts 25, and the stabilizing connecting parts 25 include a connecting seat 251 located between two adjacent driving seats 24, two plug blocks 252 symmetrically fixed on both sides of the connecting seat 251, a second guide column 253 movably inserted into the plug blocks 252, and a fourth spring 254 sleeved on the outside of the second guide column 253. The two plug blocks 252 are respectively inserted into the third movable grooves 241 in the two adjacent driving seats 24, and both ends of the second guide column 253 are fixed on the inner wall of the third movable groove 241. The two ends of the fourth spring 254 are respectively connected to the third movable groove 241 and the plug block 252.
[0057] By adopting the above technical solution, when the multiple drive seats 24 move toward the inner wall of the hexagonal socket of the bolt, the spacing between the multiple drive seats 24 becomes larger, and the plug blocks 252 on both sides of the connecting seat 251 can extend from the adjacent drive seats 24. At the same time, the fourth spring 254 is squeezed and contracted, which can drive the connecting seat 251 to move toward the inner wall of the hexagonal socket, and one side of the connecting seat 251 can also contact the inner wall of the hexagonal socket. The multiple drive seats 24 are connected through the connecting seat 251, which improves the stability of the drive seat 24. At the same time, the connecting seat 25 1 can also contact the inner wall of the hexagonal hole, increasing the overall contact area. The increase in contact area helps to evenly disperse the torque, reduce local stress concentration, ensure that the torque transmission is more stable and reliable, improve the stability during operation, and also improve the stability of the hexagonal driving part 221. The connecting seat 251 can also evenly disperse the pressure during torque transmission, so that the driving force is more evenly distributed on the inner wall of the hexagonal hole. When the torque screwdriver applies a large torque, it is not easy to cause the tool to slip due to insufficient local contact force, thereby ensuring reliable torque transmission.
[0058] like Figure 1 、 Figures 11 to 13 As shown, it also includes a support and adjustment part 1 for supporting the measuring component 2, and the support and adjustment part 1 includes two symmetrically arranged rails 11, a slide 12 slidingly connected to the two rails 11, a first positioning bolt 13 screwed in the slide 12 and positioning the slide 12, a clamping and fixing part 14 fixed to the lower end of the rail 11 for positioning and fixing the rail 11, a first movable groove 15 opened inside the slide 12, a first guide groove 17 and a second guide groove 18 opened inside the slide 12 and connected to the first movable groove 15, an angle adjustment part 16 slidingly connected to the first movable groove 15, and a positioning screw hole 19 opened on one side of the slide 12 for positioning the angle adjustment part 16, and the shell 211 is connected to the angle adjustment part 16.
[0059] The angle adjustment portion 16 includes a hollow slider 161 slidingly connected in the first movable groove 15, and a guide extension portion 162 integrally formed on both sides of the hollow slider 161 and movably connected to the first guide groove 17 and the second guide groove 18 respectively. The shell 211 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the hollow slider 161, and the hollow slider 161 is rotatably connected to a first gear 165 fixed to one side of the shell 211. A fourth movable groove is opened inside the hollow slider 161, and a pressure seat 164 is movably connected in the fourth movable groove. Two guide rods 166 are movably inserted in the pressure seat 164, and both ends of the guide rods 166 are fixed to the inner wall of the fourth movable groove. A first spring 167 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 166, and the two ends of the first spring 167 are respectively connected to the fourth movable groove and the pressure seat 164. The lower end of the pressure seat 164 is integrally formed with a tooth key 168 for limiting the first gear 165.
[0060] One of the guide extensions 162 passes through the second guide slot 18 and extends outward. A second positioning bolt 163 is screwed into the outward-extending guide extension 162 , and the second positioning bolt 163 passes through the guide extension 162 and is screwed into the positioning screw hole 19 .
[0061] By adopting the above technical solution, after the second positioning bolt 163 is screwed out from the positioning screw hole 19, the hollow slider 161 can be slid in the first movable groove 15 in the slide 12, so as to adjust the angle and position of the measuring component 2. After the first positioning bolt 13 is screwed out from the slide 12, the slide 12 can slide on the two rails 11, so as to adjust the axial position of the measuring component 2, and the pressure seat 164 is lifted upward to squeeze the first spring 167. At this time, the tooth key 168 at the lower end of the pressure seat 164 is separated from the first gear 165, and the limit of the first gear 165 is cancelled. 165 and the housing 211 connected to the first gear 165 can rotate to achieve fine adjustment of the angle of the measuring component 2. By coarsely and finely adjusting the angle of the measuring component 2, the bolt can be better matched and the screw-in angle of the bolt can be adjusted. The support adjustment portion 1 not only helps the measuring component 2 maintain the stability of the measuring component 2 when screwing the screw into the bone, but also makes the transmission process of torque and angular velocity more consistent and controllable, reduces external interference to the tool during operation, and ensures that the torque and angular velocity remain stable throughout the screw-in process, which has a positive impact on the measurement accuracy of angular momentum. Precise control of the angle can also avoid measurement errors caused by changes in angular velocity.
[0062] The workflow of the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:
[0063] Place the bolt at the lower end of the torque measuring member 218, insert the hexagonal driving portion 221 into the inner six holes of the bolt, and after the pressure plate 222 contacts the bottom wall of the inner six holes, the pressure plate 222 pushes the lower end of the connecting block 223 into the hexagonal driving portion 221. The connecting block 223 moves along the column 224 inside the hexagonal driving portion 221 and in the direction of the second spring 225. At the same time, the inclined block 227 also moves upward with the connecting block 223. When the inclined block 227 moves upward, it cooperates with the inclined surface 228. The inclined block 227 passes The inclined surface 228 applies a thrust to the movable block 229, pushing the movable block 229 to move in the second movable groove 23, thereby driving the driving seat 24 to move. Multiple driving seats 24 move toward the inner wall of the six holes in the bolt, and one side of multiple driving seats 24 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the six holes in the bolt. When multiple driving seats 24 move toward the inner wall of the hexagonal socket of the bolt, they drive the connecting seat 251 to move toward the inner wall of the hexagonal socket, and one side of the connecting seat 251 also contacts the inner wall of the hexagonal socket, controlling the electric push rod 213 to work and extend.
[0064] The electric push rod 213 extends and drives the adjustment seat 214 to move downward inside the housing 211, applying the force required to insert the bolt to the bolt. The force applied by the electric push rod 213 to the adjustment seat 214 and the bolt is detected by the pressure sensor 215. When the pressure exceeds or is less than the preset pressure value, the electric push rod 213 is adjusted to maintain the stability of the force applied when the screw is inserted. The motor 261 drives the second gear 262 to rotate, and the rotation of the second gear 262 drives the third gear 263 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 263 drives the turntable 264 and the torque measuring part 218 fixed to the turntable 264 to rotate. By rotating the torque measuring part 218 and inserting the bolt into the bone When the screw is inserted into the bone, the torque measuring element 218 detects the torque of the screw. When the torque is greater than or less than the preset torque value, the motor 261 can adjust the output torque and calculate the torque and time of the entire screw insertion process according to the formula ΔL=τ×t, thereby obtaining the angular momentum value of the screw insertion. If the torque remains constant but the angular momentum is large, it may also indicate that the screw rotation has continued for a long time. This may be because the screw has penetrated deeper into the bone or has been screwed in a long distance. The larger angular momentum may mean that the screw has been in closer contact with the bone, resulting in a better tightening effect. The smaller angular momentum may also mean that the screw has been screwed in for a short time and has not yet fully entered the bone. This may indicate that the screw has not reached the expected depth or that the length of the screw does not match the target bone segment. The smaller angular momentum may indicate that the screw is not tightened enough, resulting in a poor fixation effect.
