[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a bone cement diffusion performance testing system for bone cement screws includes: a bone-like standard block 1, a bone cement screw 2, a bone cement injector 3, and a bone cement pusher 4.

[0025] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the simulated bone standard block 1 is composed of several body-centered cubic structures 5 arranged in a three-dimensional matrix. The three-dimensional matrix arrangement is formed by the body-centered cubic structures 5 being uniformly arranged along three mutually perpendicular directions to form the cubic structure of the simulated bone standard block 1.

[0026] The body-centered cubic structure 5 is formed by the cross combination of several round rods 6. In this embodiment, the body-centered cubic structure 5 is formed by the combination of four round rods 6 to form a three-dimensional cross-shaped structure. Furthermore, the porosity of the bone-like standard block 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the length and diameter of the round rods 6 to simulate bones with different degrees of osteoporosis.

[0027] The bone-like standard block 1 is made by 3D printing.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the bone cement screw 2 includes a screw implantation part 21 and a screw tip 22. The outer peripheral surface of the screw implantation part 21 is threaded, allowing it to be implanted into the bone-like standard block 1. The screw implantation part 21 is hollow inside, with several bone cement outlets 23 at its bottom end. The screw tip 22 is located at the top of the screw implantation part 21 and includes a groove for easy engagement with the bone cement injector 3. The groove communicates with the interior of the screw implantation part 21 to achieve bone cement injection. Preferably, the several bone cement outlets 23 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the screw implantation part 21, and each bone cement outlet 23 is located at a different height to ensure that the bone cement diffuses in all directions during injection.

[0029] Meanwhile, the top of the screw end 22 is provided with a mating part 24, the interior of which is located around the groove, and its inner surface is provided with internal threads.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the bone cement injector 3 includes an injector body 31 and an injector tip 32. The injector body 31 is hollow inside, and its bottom end mates with the screw tip 22. The injector tip 32 is located on the top of the injector body 31 and has a through hole to communicate with the interior of the injector body 31. The bone cement injector 3 also includes an injection head 33, the top of which is sleeved outside the bottom end of the injector body 31, and the bottom end mates with a groove to achieve communication between the bone cement injector 3 and the bone cement screw 2. The outer wall of the middle part is provided with external threads to connect with the mating part 24.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the bone cement pusher 4 includes a pusher body 41 and a pusher end 42. The pusher body 41 can be inserted into the syringe body 31 through a through hole on the syringe end 32. The pusher end 42 is located on the top of the pusher body 41 so as to push the pusher body 41.

[0032] Testing process: The simulated bone standard block 1 was 3D printed. Holes were drilled in the simulated bone standard block 1 according to the bone cement screw 2, and then the bone cement screw 2 was implanted into the simulated bone standard block 1. The bone cement injector 3 was connected to the top of the bone cement screw 2 and then fixed to an external fixation device to maintain stability. The bone cement push rod 4 was fitted onto the bone cement injector 3 and its top was connected to the press. The test system was then completed.

[0033] The press drives the bone cement pusher 4 downward to inject bone cement into the simulated bone standard block 1. At the same time, the press records the pressure and displacement values ​​in real time to obtain the test force-displacement curve. This can quantify the force of bone cement diffusion in the bone cement screw 2. In addition, the simulated bone standard block 1 can be cut open to see the diffusion. The diffusion can be quantified by counting the grids of bone cement diffusion, or by taking an X-ray to visually see and quantify the diffusion.

[0034] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of this utility model through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
