[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment provides an ankle osteotomy positioning assembly, which includes a base 1, an osteotomy plate fixing member 2, and a limiting member 3. The base 1 includes a rectangular first body 10, which has a sliding channel 11 extending along a first direction and penetrating the first body 10 along a second direction. The first direction herein refers to the length direction of the first body 10, and the second direction refers to the width direction of the first body 10.

[0036] The two inner walls of the sliding channel 11 extending along the length of the first body 10 are defined as a first wall 101 and a second wall 102, respectively. The first wall 101 is provided with a first rack 12 extending along the length of the first body 10. The first rack 12 is composed of a plurality of first gear teeth arranged along the length of the first body 10. The second wall 102 is provided with a plurality of first limiting holes 13 arranged in a multi-row array, wherein the tooth groove of each gear tooth of the first rack 12 is arranged corresponding to a row of the plurality of first limiting holes 13. A first fixing hole 14 is also provided at each end of the length of the first body 10, through which the base 1 can be secured to the patient's body during surgery.

[0037] The osteotomy plate fixture 2 includes a generally rectangular second body 20, which is slidably disposed within the sliding channel 11. A second rack 21 is disposed on the back surface of the second body 20, opposite the first wall 101 of the sliding channel 11. The second rack 21 comprises a plurality of second gear teeth arranged along the length of the first body 10. The second gear teeth of the second rack 21 cooperate with the first gear teeth of the first rack 12, allowing the second gear teeth to mesh with the first gear teeth. The engagement between the second rack 21 and the first rack 12 allows the osteotomy plate fixture 2 to move within the sliding channel 11 along the length of the first body 10. Furthermore, the tooth width of the first gear teeth corresponds to the width of the first body 10, while the tooth width of the second gear teeth corresponds to the length of the second body 20. When the second gear teeth mesh with the first gear teeth, the second body 20 can also move along the width of the first body 10.

[0038] A second fixing hole 22 is also provided at both ends of the second main body 20 in the longitudinal direction. The osteotomy plate fixing member 2 is fixedly connected to the osteotomy plate by a fixing bolt passing through the second fixing hole 22, so that the osteotomy plate can move synchronously with the movement of the osteotomy plate fixing member 2 relative to the base 1, thereby adjusting the position of the osteotomy plate.

[0039] A plurality of second limiting holes 23 are provided on the front surface of the second body 20 that faces the second wall 102 of the sliding channel 11. In this embodiment, the plurality of second limiting holes 23 are divided into pairs, with the two second limiting holes 23 in a pair being arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction of the first body 10, and the second limiting holes 23 in different pairs being spaced apart in the width direction of the first body 10.

[0040] The limiting member 3 is used to limit the position of the osteotomy plate fixing member 2 relative to the base 1. The limiting member 3 used in this embodiment is a ball plunger. A ball plunger is fixedly installed in each second limiting hole 23. The cylindrical body of the ball plunger is threadedly connected to the second limiting hole 23. The ball head of the ball plunger cooperates with the first limiting hole 13 to fix the osteotomy plate fixing member 2 relative to the base 1. When a certain force is applied, the osteotomy plate fixing member 2 can be moved relative to the base 1, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the position of the osteotomy plate.

[0041] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 A first scale line 15 and a second scale line 24 are respectively provided on the front of the first body 10 and the front of the second body 20. The first scale line 15 is used to reflect the position of the osteotomy plate fixture 2 in the length direction of the first body 10, and the second scale line 24 is used to reflect the position of the osteotomy plate fixture 2 in the width direction of the first body 10, so as to facilitate more precise adjustment of the position of the osteotomy plate during surgery.

[0042] While the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, it should be understood that, after reading the above teachings of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make various changes or modifications to the present invention.
