Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to an orthopedic multi-structure external fixation bracket. Background Technology
[0002] When a person suffers a high-energy fracture of the upper or lower limb, such as in a war or car accident, especially a severe comminuted fracture, doctors need to quickly and accurately fix the fracture temporarily to prevent open injury. Orthopedic external fixation devices are one of the medical devices commonly used in orthopedic clinical practice.
[0003] Currently, most commonly used orthopedic external fixators on the market are linear configurations composed of multiple pin clips and rods, which generally have the following drawbacks: 1. The distribution of bone pins is generally straight, resulting in an unstable configuration; 2. Bone pins need to penetrate the bone to maintain mechanical stability, which may contaminate the medullary cavity. To address these issues, we provide an orthopedic multi-structure external fixator.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for an orthopedic multi-structure external fixation bracket, including a clamping tube mechanism 1 and a ball clamping wing mechanism 2. The ball clamping wing mechanism 2 is fixed to the clamping tube mechanism 1 by wing bolts 110. The direction of the ball clamping wing 21 fixed to the clamping tube mechanism 1 is adjustable. The ball clamping wing mechanisms 2 on both sides can be installed on the steering block 111 by the wing bolts 110, which can fix the patient's hand.
[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the ball clamping wing mechanism 2 includes a ball clamping wing 21. A ball clamping cover 23 is snapped onto the lower surface of the ball clamping wing 21. A cover bolt 24 is threaded onto the lower surface of the ball clamping wing 21. The cover bolt 24 passes through the ball clamping cover 23 and is rotatably connected to the ball clamping cover 23. The cover 23 is mounted on the cover 21. The cover 23 can be fixed by the cover 24 to prevent the cover 23 from falling off during use. A ball clamp 22 is provided on one side of the ball clamping wing 21. After the ball clamp 22 clamps the bone needle, it has an angle adjustment range of ±15°.
[0029] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the ball clamping wing mechanism 2 is fixed to the tube clamping mechanism 1 by the wing bolt 110. The tube clamping mechanism 1 includes a knurled nut 12. The lower surface of the knurled nut 12 is fitted with a tube clamping support 18. The tube clamping support 18 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 19. The outer surface of the steering block 111 is threadedly connected to the wing bolt 110. The lower tube clamping plate 16 and the tube clamping support 18 have a meshing structure to prevent slippage and loosening after final fixing.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, an eccentric rotor 13 is provided on one side of the knurled nut 12. An arc-shaped pad 14 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the knurled nut 12. The eccentric rotor 13 is installed inside the knurled nut 12 to provide a fixing function. The arc-shaped pad 14 is installed on the knurled nut 12 to provide a buffer function and prevent wear under repeated pressure. A round hole stud 11 is provided inside the knurled nut 12, and the round hole stud 11 penetrates the knurled nut 12. The knurled nut 12 has an anti-rotation groove on its outer surface for manual pre-locking of the multi-structure external fixing bracket. To finally fix the multi-structure external fixing bracket, use a 5mm Allen wrench and turn clockwise according to the locking mark of the eccentric rotor 13 to complete the final fixation. The locking is firm, convenient and quick.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, an upper clamping tube 15 is sleeved on the outer surface of the screw on the lower surface of the knurled nut 12. A spring 17 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the upper clamping tube 15. The end of the spring 17 away from the upper clamping tube 15 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lower clamping tube 16. The inside of the spring 17 is sleeved with the screw on the lower surface of the knurled nut 12. The spring 17 is installed between the upper clamping tube 15 and the lower clamping tube 16 to support them and prevent the upper clamping tube 15 and the lower clamping tube 16 from loosening during use.
[0032] The lower surface of the knurled nut 12 is fitted with a lower clamping tube 16. The lower surface of the knurled nut 12 is threaded through the upper clamping tube 15 and the lower clamping tube 16. The lower surface of the knurled nut 12 is threadedly connected to a rotating shaft 19. A steering block 111 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft 19. The rotating shaft 19 has an internal thread that is threadedly engaged with the round hole stud 11. The included angle of the ball clamping wing mechanisms 2 on both sides is 80-120°. Thus, it can quickly and accurately fix fractures temporarily, prevent open injuries, and has a simple structure, quick installation, versatile configuration, stable structure, and convenient adjustment.
[0033] Working principle: When it is necessary to fix the patient's hand, the staff can first assemble the device. First, install the upper clamping tube 15 and 16 and the lower clamping tube 16 on the screw set on the eccentric rotor 13. Then, put the lower clamping tube 16 on the screw set on the eccentric rotor 13 and then put on the spring 17. Then connect the screw to the rotating shaft 19. By turning the eccentric rotor 13, the lower clamping tube 16 can be brought into contact with the clamping tube support 18. The anti-slip grooves set on the lower clamping tube 16 and the clamping tube support 18 can prevent loosening during use and play a locking role. The ball clamping wing mechanism 2 can be fixed on the steering block 111 by the wing bolt 110. It can be adjusted according to the injured part of the patient. The clamping position of the upper clamping tube 15 and the lower clamping tube 16 can be adjusted according to the patient's arm. It can quickly and accurately fix fractures temporarily, prevent open injuries, and has a simple structure, quick installation, versatile configuration, stable structure, and convenient adjustment.
