Abstract
A method for the production of a medical implant, comprising a head section, which has at least one blind hole-type recess of an electrical plug-in contact socket, along which is arranged at least one electrically conductive contact element, together with a supply section, which is fixedly connected to the head section, and which comprises at least one electrical component, which is one of at least one microcontroller, and an electrical energy source, which are electrically connected to the at least one electrically conductive contact by way of at least one electrical conductor.
Claims9
A method for the production of a medical implant, having a head section, including at least one blind hole recess electrical plug-in contact socket, containing at least one electrical contact, and a supply section, connected to the head section which includes at least one electrical component, that is electrically connected to the at least one electrical contact by at least one electrical conductor, comprising:
- producing a fixing plate comprising a curable casting compound having an upper plate face and a lower plate face in which at least one electrical conductor is fixed and which projects through the upper and lower plate faces;
- positioning the fixing plate in a casting mold in which the lower plate face forms part of a surface of the casting mold;
- establishing electrical contact between at least one electrical conductor and the at least one electrical component, before or after the positioning of the fixing plate, which is part of a surface partially bounding the casting mold;
- and
- producing the supply section by encapsulating the at least one electrical component and the at least one electrical conductor, which projects beyond the lower plate face, in a curable casting compound, to form a material bond with the lower plate face of the fixing plate.
