Problems solved by technology

[0003] Among them, the finite element method is more used in the biomechanical evaluation of prostheses, and it has only been gradually applied to the field of wear performance research in recent years, and its reliability needs to be further verified; conventional tribological testing machine methods generally use pin/ball-disk pairings, Focus on the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, surface activity and coating binding ability of articular surface materials. The test environment is relatively simple, and it is not easy to reproduce the actual physiological and mechanical environment of the prosthesis for a long time (body fluid environment, flexion, side bending, rotation compound physiological movement) ); the animal experiment method is also limited to the comprehensive detection of the prosthesis before it enters the clinic due to the time-consuming, complicated operation, and the fact that the motion pattern of the human spine is not exactly the same; The special equipment developed for the tribological performance has become the main method for the design and manufacture of artificial intervertebral discs and the medium and long-term biological tribological performance, especially the wear performance evaluation, but it also has disadvantages such as high cost, complicated prosthesis installation operation, and long cycle.

Example Embodiment

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] The structure diagram of the simulated artificial intervertebral disc ball and socket sample of the present invention is as figure 1 Said, it is composed of a ball head 10 and a ball socket 20. One end 11 of the ball head 10 is a cylinder, a cube, a cuboid or other geometric structures, and the protrusion 12 at the other end of the ball head 10 is a spherical shape. Or ellipsoidal, the ball socket 20 is a cylinder, a cube, a cuboid or other geometric structures. A groove 21 is provided on one end surface of the ball socket 20. The groove 21 and the protrusion 12 match in shape, and the ball head 10 It is in surface-to-surface contact with the ball socket 20 through the protrusion 12 and the groove 21, and the contact surface is a spherical or ellipsoidal spherical crown surface.

[0026] In this embodiment, the contact surface of the ball and socket structure design adopts a spherical spherical crown surface contact, and a very small wrapping depth (1.5mm)
