[0002] An orthopedic external fixator is a medical device used for fracture reduction, deformity correction, and bone fixation, achieving mechanical stability through an external device connecting bone pins in the body. In most orthopedic external fixator usage scenarios, it is mainly used for fixing at the joints of patients, assisting in joint surgeries, and postoperative rehabilitation training.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 - 6 , an orthopedic external fixator mechanical analysis experimental device includes a holding handle 10, a cross bracket 20, a rubber detection head 30, and an outward expansion pressure detection mechanism 40. A cross bracket 20 is installed at the top of the holding handle 10. An outward expansion pressure detection mechanism 40 extending to the outside is arranged inside the holding handle 10. The outward expansion pressure detection mechanism 40 is movably connected to the cross bracket 20. A rubber detection head 30 is installed on the outside of the outward expansion pressure detection mechanism 40. Among them, the outward expansion pressure detection mechanism 40 includes a threaded drive assembly 50 installed inside the holding handle 10. The threaded drive assembly 50 extends to the outside of the holding handle 10 and the cross bracket 20. A plurality of horizontal expansion assemblies 60 are installed on the outside of the threaded drive assembly 50.

[0045] In the present utility model, control buttons 101 are installed on the side of the holding handle 10. There are two control buttons 101, and the two control buttons 101 are respectively used to start and stop the operation of the threaded drive assembly 50. Among them, a display panel 102 installed on the side of the holding handle 10 is also arranged below the control buttons 101. The display panel 102 is electrically connected to the threaded drive assembly 50 through an internal data analysis module.
[0046] During actual use of the above solution, the staff holds the holding handle 10, extends the experimental device into the orthopedic external fixator to be detected, and at the same time adjusts the position of the rubber detection head 30 in the horizontal plane through the arm assembly 70 according to the positions of each surface of the orthopedic external fixator, ensuring that multiple rubber detection heads 30 are more evenly in contact with the inner wall of the orthopedic external fixator simultaneously.

[0050] In the above embodiment, when the lifting sliding cylinder 505 operates, under the action of the slidably connected vertical grooves 5051 and outer protrusions 5052, the moving direction of the lifting sliding cylinder 505 can be guided to ensure that the lifting sliding cylinder 505 only moves up and down in the vertical direction.
[0051] For the orthopedic external fixator mechanical analysis experimental device of the present utility model, when performing experiments and detections on the orthopedic external fixator, start the linear motor 501 to operate, driving the main shaft 502 connected to the output end of the linear motor 501 to rotate.

There are multiple connecting protrusions 604, and a force arm assembly 70 is installed on the side of the connecting protrusion 604.
[0053] For the orthopedic external fixator mechanical analysis experimental device of the present utility model, when the lifting sliding cylinder 505 operates, the outward convex block 601 installed on its outer side will move up and down synchronously, and cause the pressing arm 602 rotatably connected to the outer side of the outward convex block 601 to operate.
