Abstract:
A polyaxial bone anchoring device includes a receiving part configured to be pivotably connected to a head of an anchoring element, the receiving part having a channel for receiving a rod and an accommodation space having an opening for accommodating the head, and a sleeve-like insert piece having a sleeve axis and a spherical segment-shaped outer surface portion. The insert piece is configured to be positioned around a portion of the head in the receiving part and to pivot in the receiving part, and includes a first part and a separable second part configured to be connected with the first part by a connection structure configured to permit translational movement between the first part and the second part in a direction transverse to the sleeve axis, while preventing movement between the first part and the second part in a direction parallel to the sleeve axis.

Claim (Index 28):
A polyaxial bone anchoring device comprising:\n an anchoring element having a shank for anchoring in a bone and a head; a receiving part configured to be pivotably connected to the head, the receiving part having a first end and a second end, a central axis extending through the first end and the second end, a channel transverse to the central axis for receiving a rod, and an accommodation space for accommodating the head, the accommodation space having an opening at the second end; a sleeve-like insert piece configured to be positioned around a portion of the head in the receiving part and to pivot in the receiving part, the insert piece comprising an inner wall that remains spaced apart from the head when the head is held in the insert piece to form an inner recess, wherein the inner wall extends from a free end of the insert piece with a first portion closer to the free end and a second portion farther away from the free end, and wherein the second portion is spaced apart at least as much from a central axis of the insert piece as the first portion is from the central axis of the insert piece; and a pressure member positionable at least partially in the accommodation space and configured to contact and exert pressure onto the head while being spaced apart from the insert piece to lock the head relative to the receiving part; wherein when the insert piece and the pressure member are in the receiving part, the pressure member is configured to extend into the inner recess of the insert piece.
