Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a titanium plate implantation device. Background Art

[0002] A tear of the distal tibiofibular ligament is a common sports injury that usually occurs during strenuous exercise or accidents. This injury may occur alone or in conjunction with other lower limb injuries. The primary function of the distal tibiofibular ligament is to stabilize the ankle joint and prevent excessive rotation and lateral movement. When the ligament is overstretched or torn, the patient will experience severe pain and the ankle joint may swell and have limited function. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential to restore the integrity of the ligament and the stability of the ankle joint; For rupture of the distal tibiofibular syndesmotic ligament, titanium plates with loops are currently generally used for fixation. However, during the implantation process, the operation time is prolonged due to the inconvenient operation and single function of the implantation instrument, which has an adverse effect on the patient's recovery process. The Chinese patent application with publication number CN119454201A discloses an adjustable bone-to-bone fixation device with a main nail and an implantation mechanism, including a main nail, a fixed coil, a first secondary nail and a second secondary nail. The main nail, the first secondary nail and the second secondary nail are connected by the fixed coil. The fixed coil has a first coil, a second coil, a first traction end and a second traction end. The main nail has a wire hole one, a wire hole two and a wire hole three. The first secondary nail is connected to the first coil, and the second secondary nail is connected to the second coil. The first traction end and the second traction end are cross-threaded into the wire hole one, and then enter the wire hole two from both sides and pass out from the wire hole three to complete the threading. The device has the problem of complicated threading operation when in use. Chinese patent publication number CN221180723U discloses a titanium plate implanter with loops. The device comprises a handle, an external fixation rod, and an internal push rod. The handle is designed for the operator to hold and is equipped with an adjustment knob and a first fixing slot for accommodating a circular titanium plate. The external fixation rod is hollow and fixedly connected to the front end of the handle. The front end of the external fixation rod has a second fixing slot for accommodating an elongated titanium plate. The internal push rod extends through the external fixation rod and is connected to the adjustment knob. The adjustment knob drives the internal push rod to slide, pushing the elongated titanium plate out of the second fixing slot. This device cannot automatically trim the thread. Chinese patent publication number CN114271886A discloses a titanium plate implant device with a loop, comprising a clamping assembly and a push rod assembly. The clamping assembly includes a titanium plate clamping portion, a flipping assist portion, and a sleeve. The titanium plate clamping portion is disposed at the tip of the sleeve and communicates with the sleeve. The titanium plate clamping portion is used to clamp the titanium plate. The flipping assist portion is disposed at the outlet of the titanium plate clamping portion to assist in flipping the titanium plate. The push rod assembly includes a push rod and a push rod drive assembly. The push rod is disposed through the sleeve and, driven by the push rod drive assembly, pushes the titanium plate toward the outlet. At the outlet, the push rod cooperates with the flipping assist portion to flip the titanium plate. This device has a complex structure and cannot achieve automatic thread trimming.
