Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medical instruments, and in particular relates to a medical reamer. Background Art

[0002] Reamers are widely used in medical surgical operations, such as for expanding or reaming holes, medullary cavity reconstruction and expansion in orthopedic surgery. Among them, the sharpness, durability and stability of the reamer directly affect the success rate of the operation. If the reamer is not sharp enough, it will affect the cutting effect of the reamer, resulting in incomplete and uneven cutting surface of the valley bone tissue, affecting the healing of the bone tissue; if the durability of the reamer is not good, the sharpness of the reamer will decrease rapidly as the cutting progresses during the operation, which will also affect the cutting surface effect; if the reamer is not stable enough, it will cause the reamer to cut inaccurately, greatly affecting the doctor's surgical operation.

[0003] Therefore, it is urgent to design a medical reamer that takes into account sharpness, durability and stability. Utility Model Content

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a medical reamer, which has excellent sharpness, durability and stability and can be used for cutting and trimming bone tissue.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions: a medical reamer, including a knife body, a knife rod and a knife handle; a knife body is provided at one end of the knife rod, and a knife handle is provided at the other end of the knife rod; wherein the knife body includes a group of end blades, a group of peripheral blades and a group of chip grooves; the end blades are arranged at the top end of the knife body, distributed around the center of the top end of the knife body, and the end blade back angle is 5°-10°; the peripheral blades are arranged on the peripheral side of the knife body, in a spiral shape, corresponding one to one with the end blades, and the peripheral blade back angle is 10°-20°; chip grooves are formed between adjacent peripheral blades.

[0006] The above-mentioned medical reamer is suitable for scenes such as expanding or reaming holes, medullary cavity reconstruction and expansion in orthopedic surgery. The knife body is used to cut bone tissue. The end blade back angle of 5°-10° not only ensures the strength and durability of the end blade, but also enhances the sharpness of the end blade; the spirally arranged peripheral blade can effectively disperse the cutting force to the entire surface of the knife body, thereby reducing the cutting load and reducing the wear of the knife body. The peripheral blade back angle of 10°-20° makes it easier for the cutting edge to enter the bone tissue and cut, thereby improving the cutting efficiency of the reamer. In addition, the combination of the end blade and the peripheral blade enables the reamer to be subjected to axial force and radial force at the same time when in use, achieving the effect of stress dispersion.

[0007] Furthermore, the above-mentioned medical reamer has a blade body provided with 6 end blades and 6 peripheral blades; the peripheral blades extend from the end blades to the entire blade body. The blade body adopts a combination of 6 end blades and 6 peripheral blades, which increases the number of cutting blades, increases the cutting area, and improves the cutting efficiency.

[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned medical reamer, the flute back ratio of the chip flute is between 4.5:1 and 5.5:1. The design of flute width and small back makes the back of the chip flute narrower, which helps the chips to be discharged smoothly during the cutting process, reduces the accumulation of chips in the flute and prevents chip blockage.

[0009] Furthermore, the medical reamer has a cooling water hole in the blade body; the cooling water hole runs through the entire reamer along the central axis of the blade body. The cooling water hole in the center of the reamer can spray water to cool down during the cutting process, effectively reducing the temperature of the blade body and the cutting area to a safe level, thereby protecting bone cells from overheating.

[0010] Furthermore, the handle of the medical reamer includes a limiting portion, a connecting portion and a locking portion; the limiting portion and the locking portion are arranged at both ends of the connecting portion, and the limiting portion is close to the shank. The handle of the medical reamer can be connected to a quick-connect handle. The quick-connect handle is one of the common medical instruments and tools, which is used to clamp the reamer during orthopedic surgery to assist the doctor in completing the surgery. Through the handle, the reamer can cooperate accurately with the quick-connect handle, so that the doctor can better control the reamer, thereby achieving a more precise cutting operation.

[0011] Furthermore, the medical reamer has a set of radially extending limit blocks on the side wall of the limit portion to form a limit step. The limit blocks can abut against the quick-connect handle, thereby limiting the axial position of the quick-connect handle so that it does not exceed the handle portion of the reamer.

[0012] Furthermore, the connection part of the medical reamer includes a first positioning groove and a second positioning groove; the first positioning groove is formed on the side wall of the connection part along a direction perpendicular to the axis of the reamer; the second positioning groove is formed on the side wall of the connection part along the direction of the axis of the reamer. The first positioning groove and the second positioning groove can help the doctor to accurately position the quick-connect handle to ensure that the quick-connect handle is in the correct position when the reamer is used.

[0013] Furthermore, in the medical reamer, a locking thread is arranged on the peripheral side of the locking part, and the thread structure is spirally arranged around the locking part. The thread structure is tightened by rotation, so that the handle is connected to the quick-connect handle.

[0014] Furthermore, the medical reamer has a titanium nitride coating on the surface of the blade, which can increase the hardness of the blade surface and improve its wear resistance.

[0015] Furthermore, the medical reamer has an anti-skid layer on the surface of the shank and the handle, which can increase the friction coefficient between the shank and the handle surface, thereby making the reamer more secure when matched with the quick-connect handle.

[0016] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the medical reamer provided by the utility model is provided with an end blade back angle of 5°-10° and a peripheral blade back angle of 10°-20°, which not only enhances the sharpness of the reamer but also maintains the durability of the reamer; the cooperation between the end blade and the peripheral blade allows the reamer to be subjected to axial force and radial force at the same time when in use, achieving the effect of stress dispersion and improving the stability of the reamer. In addition, the reamer is connected to the quick-connect handle through the handle, making the medical reamer more stable and precise when in use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a medical reamer comprises: a knife body 1, a knife rod 2 and a knife handle 3; Figure 2 As shown, the cutter body 1 includes a group of end cutting edges 11, a group of peripheral cutting edges 12 and a group of chip grooves 13; the end cutting edges 11 are arranged at the top end of the cutter body 1, distributed around the center of the top end of the cutter body 1, and the end cutting edge back angle is 5°; the peripheral cutting edges 12 are arranged on the peripheral side of the cutter body 1, in a spiral shape, corresponding to the end cutting edges 11 one by one, and the peripheral cutting edge back angle is 10°; chip grooves 13 are formed between adjacent peripheral cutting edges 12.

[0025] During the operation, the doctor connects the reamer to the quick-connect handle through the handle 3, then aligns the blade body 1 with the position of the bone tissue to be cut, and then rotates the reamer to cut. The end blade 11 with a back angle of 5° can easily cut the bone tissue, and the peripheral blade 12 with a back angle of 10° can assist the end blade 11 in digging or expanding the hole; at the same time, the blade body 1 is provided with a chip groove 13, and the tissue debris generated during the cutting process enters the chip groove 13 along the spiral peripheral blade 12, and when the reamer is pulled out, the accumulated chips can be taken out of the bone tissue for cleaning.
