A surgical instrument includes a rod and a push portion. The push portion includes a first end connected to an end of the rod and a second end having a blade portion. The push portion includes a plurality of grooves. The plurality of grooves is recessed in a surface of the push portion and is spaced from each other. Each two adjacent grooves has a rib formed therebetween. A top face of a cross section of each rib is the surface of the push portion. Each rib has a guiding face on the cross section of the push portion. The guiding face is connected to the surface of the push portion. The guiding face faces a rotating direction of the rod. An angle between the guiding face and the surface of the push portion in the cross section is greater than 90°.

Surgical instrument

A signal sensing device includes a body and two signal sensing elements disposed in the body. An insulating layer is sandwiched between the two signal sensing elements. Each of the two signal sensing elements incudes a signal transmission section and a signal sensing section in electrical connection with the signal transmission section. The signal transmission sections are planar antennae parallel to each other and each having an antenna shape of meander-line type. The antenna shape of each transmission section has a vertical projection on a plane parallel to each signal transmission section. The vertical projections of the antenna shapes do not overlap completely. When a portion of the body forms a surrounding portion which surrounds a to-be-sensed target, a portion or an entirety of each signal sensing section is located on the surrounding portion.

Signal sensing device

A tool for a bone implant includes a rod and an adaptor. The rod includes a coupling portion having a through-hole. The rod further includes a measuring arm connected to the coupling portion and a force applying arm connected to the coupling portion. The measuring arm includes a first extension section having a first indicator portion, and the force applying arm includes a second extension section having a second indicator portion. The force applying arm is elastically deformable away from the measuring arm to displace the second extension section relative to the first extension section. The adaptor is coupled in the through-hole and includes an outer ring and an inner ring. The outer ring is rotatable relative to the inner ring in a single direction.

Tool for bone implant

A tool for a bone implant includes a sleeve and a transmission rod including a transmission member disposed on an end of a shaft. Another end of the shaft is located outside of the sleeve. The transmission member is received in the sleeve and includes a first compartment and a plurality of first teeth surrounding the first compartment. A drilling rod includes a second compartment and a plurality of second teeth surrounding the second compartment. A coupling portion is disposed between the second compartment and a bit. The coupling portion is coupled with the sleeve. The bit is located outside of the sleeve. Two magnets are disposed in the first and second compartments, respectively. Two same poles respectively of the two magnets face each other.
