The outer surface 28 is also dimensioned to allow the bushing 16 to rotate at an angle within the plate hole 14 along a plurality of axes as indicated by lines 40, 42, 44, for example. Please refer to FIG. As shown, the bushing 16 rotates within the plate hole 14 along a plurality of axes as long as the passage 36 extends unimpeded between the proximal end 22 and the distal end 24 of the fixation plate 12. The osteosynthesis screw 18 can pass therethrough. Accordingly, the bushing 16 moves and enters the plate hole 14 to form the subassembly 17. As shown in FIG. 2, the fixing plate 12 has six plate holes 14, and the six bushings 16 disposed in the six plate holes 14 rotate independently of each other. Preferably, the osteosynthesis screw 18 is attached to the subassembly 17 without a removable attachment part, so that the surgeon can easily handle the fixation plate device 10.
The osteosynthesis screw 18 is formed to engage the bushing 16 and to fix the relative position of the bushing 16 in the plate hole 14. Hereinafter, one osteosynthesis screw 18 will be described, but it will be understood that the description applies to all osteosynthesis screws 18. As shown in FIG. 5, the osteosynthesis screw 18 has a leading portion 48 sized to penetrate the passage 36 and enter the bone 11, a tracking portion 50 on the opposite side, and a center between the leading portion 48 and the tracking portion 50.

Simply stated, the osteosynthesis screw 18 has an additional lead 62 extending from about the center 52 toward the tracking portion 50 with a single lead 60 extending from the tip to the top. The osteosynthesis screw 18 is composed of a titanium alloy, but the osteosynthesis screw 18 is titanium, stainless steel, or any number of various types of materials having mechanical properties suitable for bonding bones together. It may be comprised from.
As shown in FIG. 5, the single lead 60 adjacent the leading portion 48 engages the thread 38 of the bushing 16 prior to engaging the bone 11. The thread 56 of the single lead 60 has a diameter that is larger than the diameter 72 of the thread 38, as indicated by arrow 128. Accordingly, the thread 38 of the bushing 16 will engage and guide the single lead 60 when inserting the osteosynthesis screw 18 into the bone 11. As shown in FIG.TrackingThe part 50 has a tapered part 70. This portion 70 is formed so as to spread away from the head portion 48 as indicated by a line 71. As shown in the figure, the tapered portion extends from the leading portion 48 at an angle of about 6 degrees. The taper 70 further extends the diameter 68 of the passage 36 so as to engage the inner surface 30 of the bushing 16 and increase the diameter 58 of the slot 46, and the outer surface 28 presses the inner surface 26 to press the bushing 16. The size is such that the fixed plate 12 is frictionally fixed. As shown in the figure, the multiple leads 62 are arranged so as to be placed on the tapered portion 70. The thread pitch of the multiple leads 62 has leads starting at about 120 °. With the head 48TrackingIt is understood that the lead between the parts 50 can be changed in pitch and number based on the present invention. Although the osteosynthesis screw 18 is described with reference to the drawings, the fixing plate 12 may be connected to the bone 11 by various attachment parts. The head 48 is attached to the bone 11,TrackingAs long as the part 50 spreads the bushing 16 and frictionally fixes the bushing 16 in place in the plate hole 14, for example, the leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 18 may be replaced with a plug or a multi-hole covered spike.
In another example embodiment of the present invention, the fixation plate device 110 includes a fixation plate 12, a bushing 16 and a drop-type osteosynthesis screw 118. See FIG. To the extent that the fixed plate device 110 is similar to the fixed plate device 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the same reference numerals are used to denote the same components. Referring to FIG. 6, the osteosynthesis screw 118 has a single lead 122 adjacent the leading portion 48. The osteosynthesis screw 118 also has a tapered multiple lead 124 adjacent to the tracking portion 50. The multiple leads 124 have a diameter formed so that the bushing 16 is spread and fixed to the fixing plate 12 by friction.
As shown in FIG. 6, the single lead 122 of the osteosynthesis screw 118 has a smaller diameter than the diameter 72 of the thread 38 of the bushing 16, as indicated by arrow 166. Therefore, the leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 118 is formed with a predetermined dimension so as to slide through the passage 36 apart from the thread 38 of the bushing 16. However, the multiple leads 124 are located on the tapered portion 70 of the osteosynthesis screw 118 and engage the thread 38 of the bushing 16. As shown in FIG. 6, the thread 38 of the bushing 16 receives the thread 123 of the multiple lead 124, and the tapered portion 70 is inserted into the passage 36.
Implant screw 218 is illustrated in FIG. 7 and is suitable for use with subassembly 17 in accordance with the present invention. The implant screw 218 is formed to a predetermined size so as to protrude through the implant hole 25 and to stabilize the implant prior to fusion. Implant screw 218 faces away from head 220TrackingPart 222. The transplant screw 218 further includes a leading portion 220 andTrackingIt has an outer wall 224 that extends between the portion 222. The outer wall 224 starts from the top 220.TrackingIt spreads at an angle of about 6 degrees toward the portion 222. Further, a thread 226 extends around the outer wall 224. As the implant screw 218 extends into the bone 11, the outer wall 224 becomes more closely engaged with the wall 23 until the implant screw 218 remains in place. Although the implant screw 218 is described with reference to the figures, implant screws and various attachment mechanisms having various shapes and dimensions may be used in accordance with the present invention to stabilize the implant.
To connect the fixation plate 12 to the bone 11, the surgeon first places the assembly 17 on the bone 11 and selects the desired angle for inserting the osteosynthesis screw 18 into the bone 11. Next, the drill guide 130 is inserted into the passage 36 of the bushing 16 located in the plate hole 14 of the fixed plate 12. As shown in FIG. 8, the drill guide 130 has a handle portion 132 and a long elongated guide portion 134 that defines a plate hole 136 having a shaft 137. The guide part 134 has an upper end part 140 having a dimension capable of inserting a drill bit (not shown) and a lower end part 142 provided with a stop part 144. The stop portion 144 is formed to have a predetermined dimension that restricts the guide portion 134 from protruding through the plate hole 14 of the fixed plate 12. The lower end portion 142 has a thread 146 formed to have a predetermined size that meshes with the thread 38 on the bushing 16. Therefore, in order to place the drill guide 130 in the passage 36, the lower end 142 is rotated with respect to the bushing 16 to engage the thread 146 with the thread 38 on the bushing 16. Although the drill guide 130 has been described with reference to the drawings, it will be understood that various drill bit positioning mechanisms may be used when placing the bushing 16 on the stationary plate 12.
Once the drill guide 130 engages the bushing 16, the surgeon moves the handle 132 relative to the fixation plate 12 to move the bushing within the plate hole 14 relative to the vertebra 11 along the plurality of axes 40, 42, 44. 16 can be freely rotated. The desired position of the bushing 16 relative to the fixation plate 12 is selected by tilting the bushing 16 so that the shaft 137 of the guide 132 and thus the passage 36 of the bushing 16 passes through the desired segment of the bone 11. Once the desired position is selected, the surgeon uses a drill (not shown) to form a steering hole (not shown) large enough to receive the leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 18 in the vertebra 11. . Next, the drill guide 130 is removed from the passage 36 of the bushing 16.
The leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 18 is then inserted into the passage 36 of the expandable bushing 16. When the osteosynthesis screw 18 enters the passage 36, the thread 38 on the bushing 16 meshes with the thread 56 of the leading portion 48 to guide the leading portion 48 into the passage 36. Next, the surgeon rotates the tracking portion 50 as indicated by the arrow 51 until the leading portion 48 exits the first end 32 of the bushing 16 and protrudes into the rudder hole (not shown). Once the leading portion 48 exits the bushing 16, the tapered portion 70 adjacent to the tracking portion 50 engages the thread 38 on the bushing 16. Due to the continuous rotation 51 in the bushing 16, the thread 38 on the bushing 16 receives the thread 62 on the tapered portion 70, and the tapered portion 70 is guided to the passage 36. Therefore, the taper portion 70 expands the diameter 68 of the passage 36 and presses the outer surface 28 of the bushing 16 to engage with the inner wall 26 of the fixing plate 12 by fixing by friction. Although the drill guide 130 is shown and described, the leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 18 may be formed to extend into the bone 11 without a rudder hole.
In another example embodiment of the present invention, the leading portion 48 of the osteosynthesis screw 118 is inserted into the passage 36 of the bushing 16. During insertion, the leading portion 48 slides through the passage 36 such that the thread 38 of the bushing 16 is separated from the thread 56 of the leading portion 48. Once the tip 48 “falls into” the rudder hole,TrackingThe tapered portion 70 adjacent to the portion 50 is rotated. The thread 38 on the bushing 16 meshes with the thread 123 of the tapered portion 70 and guides the tapered portion 70 into the passage 36. The surgeon continues to rotate the osteosynthesis screw 118 within the bushing 16 until the taper 70 expands the diameter 68 of the passage 36, thereby pushing the spherical outer surface 28 of the bushing 16 and the spherical inner wall of the fixation plate 12. 26 is engaged by fixing by friction.
