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 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.

A femur supporting device includes a femoral stem having a plurality of inclined passages. The femoral stem includes an inner side and an outer side. Each inclined passage includes an outlet in the inner side and an inlet in the outer side. Each inclined passage inclines upward from the inlet to the outlet. A plurality of supporting rods extends through the inclined passages. A first engaging end of each supporting rod extends out of the outlet of one of the inclined passages. A second engaging end of each supporting rod extends out of the inlet of one of the inclined passages. The first engaging end of each supporting rod is engaged with one of a plurality of first engaging portions in a trochanter head. The second engaging end of each supporting rod is engaged with one of a plurality of second engaging portions of a fixing unit.

Femur supporting device

A bone implant drill includes a bearing received in a sleeve. A transmission shaft includes a rod extending through the bearing and a transmission member formed on an end of the rod and received in the sleeve. The other end of the rod extends beyond the sleeve. A cutting rod includes a cutter, a coupling member received in the sleeve, and a positioning member between the cutter and the coupling member. The cutter and the coupling member are provided on two ends of the cutting rod respectively. The coupling member includes second teeth releasably engageable with first teeth on a free end of the transmission member. An elastic element is mounted in the sleeve. The elastic element includes a first end mounted around the coupling member and abutting the positioning member. The elastic element further includes a second end mounted around the transmission member and abutting the bearing.

Bone implant drill

An implant carrier assembly, including a first housing, a second housing, a mixing pot for receiving powder, and a sealed container for receiving liquid, is provided. The first housing and the second housing are detachably assembled to each other to form a receiving space. An implant is received therein or removed therefrom. The second housing has a hole communicating with the receiving space. The sealed container is inserted into the mixing pot, and the mixing pot is assembled to the second housing, such that the sealed container is packed and squeezed inside the mixing pot and broken and the liquid flows out of the sealed container. The powder and the liquid are mixed and flow into the receiving space through the hole.

Implant carrier, mixing pot, and implant carrier assembly

A dental prosthesis includes an implanting end, a coupling end, and a screw portion between the implanting end and the coupling end. The dental prosthesis further includes a positioning marker portion located adjacent to the coupling end of the dental prosthesis. The dental prosthesis can be precisely located in an alveolar bone of a patient. A dental implant includes the dental prosthesis and an abutment. The abutment includes a prosthesis coupling end. The prosthesis coupling end of the abutment is coupled to the coupling end of the dental prosthesis.

Dental implant with positioning marker and index portions

A bone implant includes an implant having an implantation end and a connection end. A blind hole is formed in the connection end and extends in an axial direction, defining an abutment receiving section and a locking section. The abutment receiving section includes an anti-rotation portion having a minimal inner width perpendicular to the axial direction. An abutment includes an elastic, deformable portion, a connection portion, and a prosthesis engagement portion. The abutment further includes a bore extending in the axial direction. The elastic, deformable portion includes resilient plates, with a slit formed between two adjacent resilient plates. The elastic, deformable portion has a maximal outer width larger than the minimal inner width. The elastic, deformable portion is aligned and engages with the anti-rotation portion. An abutment screw includes a head end positioned in the bore of the abutment and a locking end engaged with the locking section.
