An external skeletal fixation device includes first and second pin clamp units fixedly holding rodlike members inserted, respectively, into a first part and a second part of a bone on the opposite sides, respectively, of a virtual hinge point corresponding to a center of rotational angulation, a center on opposite sides of a fracture site of the bone or a part of the osteotomy site for deformity correction are turned, or a center about which a joint turns. A connecting mechanism connecting the first and second pin clamp units has first and second arms pivotally connected to the first and second pin clamp units, respectively. The respective axes of rotary joints respectively connecting the first pin clamp unit and the first arm, the second pin clamp unit and the second arm, and the first arm and the second arms extend toward the virtual hinge point.

An external skeletal fixation device reduces load on the patient, is capable of freely moving and deformity correction of a bone and bone fragments, is simple in construction and can be attached to the patient by an operator who has not a very high skill and long experience. An external skeletal fixation device 1 includes a pair of pin clamp units 2 and 3 fixedly holding rodlike members 61 and 62 inserted, respectively, into a first part 9B2 and a second part 9B3 of a bone 9B on the opposite sides, respectively, of a virtual hinge point 9B1 in the bone 9B. The virtual hinge point corresponds to a center of rotational angulation of the bone, a center on which the first and the second part of the bone respectively on the opposite sides of a fracture site of the bone or a part of the osteotomy site for deformity correction are turned, or a center about which a joint turns. A connecting mechanism 4 connecting the pair of pin clamp units 2 and 3 has a pair of arms 41 and 42 pivotally connected to the pair of pin clamp units 2 and 3, respectively. The pair of arms 41 and 42 are pivotally joined together. The respective axes A1, B1 and C1 of rotary joints A, B and C respectively connecting the pin clamp units 2 and the arm 41, the pin clamp unit 3 and the arm 42, and the arms 41 and 42 extend toward the virtual hinge point 9B1.

An echo tracking processor unit detects a bone surface section based on an echo signal and tracks a position of the bone surface section. An interpolation line generator unit generates an interpolation line connecting tracking points which represent the tracked bone surface section. A translational displacement corrector unit removes a translational displacement component between an interpolation line corresponding to a time phase of a no-load state stored in a memory and an interpolation line corresponding to a time phase in a loaded state output from the interpolation line generator unit. A strain calculator unit calculates an amount of strain of bone for each time phase and outputs to a characteristic curve generator unit. The characteristic curve generator unit generates a characteristic curve related to the strain of bone based on a load value output from a load measurement device and the amount of strain of bone output from the strain calculator unit.

An absorptive wound covering protecting material and a method for preparing an absorptive wound covering protecting material are characterized by solidifying a sponge raw solution containing no reinforcement that is obtained by mixing viscose and crystalline mirabilite as main raw materials, or a sponge raw solution obtained by mixing viscose containing a reinforcement comprising natural fibers having a length of at least 5 mm to 40 mm, and crystalline mirabilite as main raw materials, by performing a heat treatment on the sponge raw solution, and then forming the solidified cellulose sponge in a thickness somewhat greater than a desired thickness, and then forming the cellulose sponge in a sheet form having a desired thickness by compressing the cellulose sponge, and, if required, carboxymethylating hydroxyl groups in a glucose unit constituting a cellulose sponge so that a degree of substitution of the hydroxyl groups is from 0.5 to less than 1.0, and then, forming an incision the cellulose sponge.
摘要:
An apparatus for and a method of manufacturing a fiber reinforced thermoplastic sheet-shaped molding including a pre-impregnating process and a final impregnating process. A sheet of thermoplastic resin and a web of reinforcement fibers are supplied through the pre-impregnating process during which the thermoplastic resin is sucked under the influence of a suction force so as to partially penetrate into interstices in the reinforcement fiber web while both are transported around and by a perforated rotary drum, thereby to form a first preformed sheet. The first preformed sheet is subsequently supplied to the final impregnating process during which an impregnating machine is employed. As the first preformed sheet is passed through the impregnating machine while compressed inwardly and heated, the thermoplastic resin is allowed to completely penetrate into the interstices in the reinforcement fiber web to complete the fiber reinforced thermoplastic sheet-shaped molding upon cooling thereof. The fiber reinforced thermoplastic sheet-shaped molding is made of thermoplastic resin impregnated with reinforcement fibers.
