The disclosure relates to a technical field of medical instruments, and in particular to a structural design of a combined type self-stabilizing orthopedic implanted screw. The orthopedic implanted screw has bone integration and self-locking functions, thereby effectively preventing the orthopedic implanted screw from dropping out of a bone.
As a common orthopedic implant applied to fixation, a bone screw is generally applied to fixation of internal fracture or dislocation. During use, the bone screw is directly screwed into two different bone blocks or is directly screwed into fixing bone plates and other implants, to achieve fixation of a bone and facilitate healing of an affected area.
However, a screw implanted into the bone easily gets loose and even slightly screws out from the bone step by step after working. In presence of a complicated stress for a long time in clinic practice, accordingly it is not only unfavorable to rapid growth of bones, and stable growth of bones and healing of the bone but also may probably cause secondary damage of the affected area, and consequently living quality of a patient is influenced seriously.
Embodiments of the disclosure are to provide an orthopedic implanted screw, to solve the problem that a bone screw implanted into a bone in the conventional art may easily get loose and even slightly screw out from the bone step by step after working in presence of a complicated stress for a long time, accordingly it is not only unfavorable to quick and stable growth and healing of the bone but may probably cause secondary damage of an affected area, and consequently living quality of a patient may be influenced seriously.
In order to achieve the abovementioned objective, the disclosure provides an orthopedic implanted screw, for implantation into a bone. The orthopedic implanted screw may include a fixed seat and a screw body. The fixed seat may include a seat body, a deformation limiting portion and a taper portion. Herein, the seat body is provided with a limiting cavity, a top avoidance opening and a bottom avoidance opening communicating with the limiting cavity, the deformation limiting portion is configured on an inner wall surface of the seat body, protrudes toward an inner part of the limiting cavity and is positioned at the top avoidance opening, the taper portion is configured on an outer wall surface of the seat body in a protruding mode. The screw body is detachably mounted on the fixed seat, and the screw body drills into a bone in a rotating mode. In addition, one part of the screw body is limited in the limiting cavity by the inner wall surface of the seat body and the deformation limiting portion, another part of the screw body drills into the bone after passing through the bottom avoidance opening, and the screw body positioned in the limiting cavity abuts against the inner wall surface of the seat body so that the taper portion drills into the bone, to accordingly prevent the screw body from dropping out of the bone.
In some embodiments, the screw body may include a screw tip, a screw trunk and a screw cap that are connected in sequence. Herein, the screw tip and/or the screw trunk are/is provide with a threaded structure, the screw tip and the screw trunk drill into the bone through the threaded structure, the screw cap is limited in the limiting cavity by the inner wall surface of the seat body and the deformation limiting portion, and the screw cap is configured to abut against the inner wall surface of the seat body.
In some embodiments, part of a surface of the inner wall surface of the seat body and part of a surface of an outer surface of the screw cap are curved surfaces fitting with each other compatibly.
In some embodiments, a surface part of the inner wall surface of the seat body fitting the outer surface of the screw cap is part of a surface of a spherical surface.
In some embodiments, the taper portion extends along an axial direction of the seat body, or the taper portion inclines toward a side opposite to a direction in which the threaded structure 24 is rotated into an inside of the bone.
In some embodiments, there are multiple taper portions, and a plurality of taper portions are provided around a circumferential direction of the seat body at intervals.
In some embodiments, the deformation limiting portion is an elastic buckle having deformation function. There are multiple elastic buckles, and multiple elastic buckles are configured around a circumferential direction of the top avoidance opening at intervals.
In some embodiments, the orthopedic implanted screw may. In some embodiments include a pad. The pad is configured on an outer wall surface of the fixed seat. In addition, the taper portion passes through the pad, and the interior of the pad is provided with multiple micropore structures.
In some embodiments, the pad and the fixed seat are formed integrally through 3D printing.
In some embodiments, the orthopedic implanted screw comprises a screwing counter bore and a clamping slot provided on an upper surface of the screw cap, and the clamping slot is connected with the deformation limiting portion compatibly in a clamping mode.
With the adoption of the technical solution of the disclosure, the screw body is detachably mounted on the fixed seat, in this way the screw body may pass through the top avoidance opening, the limiting cavity and the bottom avoidance opening of the seat body in sequence when using the orthopedic implanted screw, and drill into the bone in a screwing mode. When the screw body drills into the bone for a certain depth, the taper portion of the fixed seat may contact with a surface of the bone. At the moment, the screw body is continued to be screwed. When the screw body continues to drill into the bone, one end of the screw body far away from the bone may abut against the deformation limiting portion of the fixed seat, the deformation limiting portion may be deformed until the one end of the screw body far away from the bone completely gets over the deformation limiting portion, the deformation limiting portion may restore an original shape, to stop an end surface of the one end of the screw body far away from the bone. Then the screw body is continued to be screwed, and the screw body positioned in the limiting cavity abuts against the inner wall surface of the seat body so that the taper portion drills into the bone. In this way, a limitation relation may be formed between the fixed seat and the bone. Meanwhile, the fixed seat further plays a role of limitation to the screw body, thereby preventing the screw body from dropping out of the bone accordingly. Stability of the screw body implanted into the bone is ensured, it is not only favorable to quick growth and stable growth and healing of the bone but prevents the affected area from secondary damage, and consequently living quality of the patient may be reliably improved.
