发明名称 Bone cement mixing and delivery system with reduced fume exposure
摘要 A system for bone cement includes a vial holder configured for receiving a vial and including a holding structure for maintaining the vial in the vial holder. The vial includes a monomer component for bone cement. A holder chamber is configured to receive and secure the vial holder. The vial holder is advanced toward a vial-breaking device for breaking the vial and releasing its contents into the holder chamber past the elastomeric seal. Once the vial holder is advanced further the elastomeric seal is deformed to form a seal and prevent fumes produced from escaping from the device.

主权项 1. A device for mixing and containing fumes for a bone cement component comprising: a vial holder comprising a body having an inner surface that defines a cavity, the vial holder comprising a distal portion having a threaded outer surface, the vial holder comprising an opening that extends through the distal portion and is in communication with the cavity; a vial positioned within the cavity; a container comprising a proximal chamber and a distal chamber, the body being positioned within the proximal chamber, a first portion of the distal chamber being defined by a threaded inner surface that is configured to engage the threaded outer surface to move the vial holder axially relative to the container, the container comprising an outer surface that defines a ledge, the container comprising a vial-breaking device disposed therein and an elastomeric seal having a first surface and an opposite second surface, the seal being positioned such that the vial-breaking device extends through the first and second surfaces, the seal being configured to form a seal against an unthreaded inner surface that defines a second portion of the distal chamber so as to prevent fumes from escaping from the container; and a mixing vessel comprising a port and a syringe that is in communication with the port, the syringe comprising a plunger that is movable within the syringe, the mixing vessel comprising a second threaded inner surface that engages a second threaded outer surface of the container to move the container axially relative to the mixing vessel between a first orientation in which the ledge is spaced apart from the plunger and a second orientation in which the ledge engages the plunger to move the plunger relative to the syringe and drive contents of the syringe out of the port.
