Abstract:
1. An artificial cervical vertebrae composite joint, comprising: upper and lower fixing members disposed symmetrically to each other, a cervical vertebrae body member having upper and lower sides, and upper and lower connection members, the cervical vertebrae body member being connected between the fixing members through the connection members, wherein the fixing members each have an L shape and comprise a front wing part and a base part, an angle between the front wing part and the base part of the upper fixing member and an angle between the front wing part and the base part of the lower fixing member are different from each other, a locking screw hole is formed in the front wing part of each of the fixing members, and teeth are disposed on a middle portion of the base part of each of the fixing members; wherein a bone grafting hole is transversely disposed relative to an axial direction of the cervical vertebrae body member through a middle portion of the cervical vertebrae body member, the cervical vertebrae body member has an upper cavity disposed on the upper side of the cervical vertebrae body member at an axial center of the cervical vertebrae body member to mount the upper connection member, and a lower cavity disposed on the lower side of the cervical vertebrae body member at the axial center of the cervical vertebrae body member to mount the lower connection member, and the upper cavity comprises a first cylindrical recessed chamber and a first spherical protrusion, wherein the first spherical protrusion is located at a center of a bottom surface of the first recessed chamber, and the lower cavity comprises a second cylindrical recessed chamber and a second spherical protrusion, wherein the second spherical protrusion is located at a center of a bottom surface of the second recessed chamber; wherein the upper connection member comprises a first cylindrical body and a first spherical structure, the first spherical structure comprises a first concave spherical surface coinciding, with the first spherical protrusion located within the upper cavity of the cervical vertebrae body member; wherein the lower connection member comprises a second cylindrical body and a second spherical structure, the second spherical structure comprises a second concave spherical surface coinciding with the second spherical protrusion located within the lower cavity of the cervical vertebrae body member; wherein the artificial cervical vertebrae composite joint further comprising: wherein the upper connection member has an end mounted in the upper cavity by means of the first fixing ring, and another end connected with the upper fixing member to form a stable sliding-trough type ball-and-socket joint; wherein the lower connection member has an end mounted in the lower cavity by means of the second fixing ring, and another end connected with the lower fixing member to form a stable sliding-trough type ball-and-socket joint; wherein the first fixing ring is disposed on a side of the first spherical structure of the upper connection member opposite to the first spherical protrusion, the first cylindrical body of the upper connection member is disposed in a hole of the first fixing ring, and the first spherical structure of the upper connection member has a diameter larger than that of the hole of the first fixing ring; and wherein the second fixing ring is disposed on a side of the second spherical structure of the lower connection member opposite to the second spherical protrusion, the second cylindrical body of the lower connection member is disposed in a hole of the second fixing ring, and the second spherical structure of the lower connection member has a diameter larger than that of the hole of the second fixing ring.
