Abstract
The invention relates to a coupling of two sides of a synergetically cooperating fixation system in medical equipment and apparatus, illustrated by way of example of an external fixator with rod-like guide elements, wherein a point-precise and internally tension-free clamping connection is formed by in each case two planar parallel disposed faces. The complementary, uncoated coupling surface is shape-matchingly impressed "de novo" and "uniquely" during each coupling closure by a static press-on force based on a diamond, plastic grain layer of a chaotic profile solidly attached to one of the faces, such that a clamping connection with the multilatent force-form match closure is furnished.
Claims28
A clamping connection for medical supports comprising:
- a first coupling disk having a first engaging metallic face and a three-dimensional grain layer of diamond or crystalline boron nitride limited with a first surface of the first coupling disk;
- a second coupling disk having a second engaging metallic face and a second uncoated metallic surface wherein the first coupling disk with the first surface facing the second uncoated metallic surface of the second coupling disk are undividedly force-matching coupled and wherein the second uncoated metallic surface assumes temporarily a respective plastic inversion profile of the first surface of the three-dimensional grain layer, and wherein the first coupling disk and the second coupling disk form an undividedly shape-matchingly coupling based on external static clamping forces pressing the first coupling disk against the second coupling disk and form a multilatent static impression coupling with an undivided force-form match.
A clamping connection for medical equipment and apparatus comprising
- a first coupling disk (3 and/or 4) having a first metallic surface;
- a three-dimensional grain layer (5 and/or 5') of diamond or crystalline boron nitride having a first grain surface and a second grain surface and solidly attached at the first grain surface of the three-dimensional grain layer (5 and/or 5') to the first coupling disk at a side oppositely disposed to the first metallic surface of the first coupling disk (3 and/or 4);
- a second coupling disk (3' and/or 4') having a second metallic surface and an uncoated surface disposed facing the second grain surface of the three-dimensional grain layer (5 and/or 5') wherein the uncoated surface of the second coupling disk assumes temporarily a plastic inversion profile (6 and/or 6') of the second grain surface of the three-dimensional grain layer (5 and/or 5') when the first coupling disk and the second coupling disk are undividedly shape-matchingly coupled based on external static clamping forces (F and/or F') acting on the first coupling disk and the second coupling disk (3, 3' and/or 4, 4').
A clamping connection for medical supports comprising:
- a first coupling disk having a three-dimensional grain layer of diamond or crystalline boron nitride solidly attached to an engaging metallic face of the first coupling disk and forming a first surface of the first coupling disk;
- a second coupling disk lacking a three-dimensional grain layer of diamond or crystalline boron nitride solidly attached to a second engaging metallic face of the second coupling disk, said first coupling disk with the first surface facing the second engaging metallic face of the second coupling disk such that the coupling disks are completely force-transferring based on the first surface facing the second engaging metallic face and in that the second engaging metallic face assumes temporarily a respective plastic inversion profile of the three-dimensional grain layer of the first surface, and wherein the first coupling disk disposed immediately oppositely and the second coupling disk are simultaneously completely shape-matchingly coupled based on external static clamping forces pressing the first coupling disk against the second coupling disk and form a multilatent static impression coupling with an undivided force-form match.
