Manipulating tool for a medical implant, medical implant and kit of parts comprising a manipulating tool and implant

摘要

A manipulating tool for a medical implant includes an actuating rod. The rod has a rear end with a grip part and a fixing element at the front end for the releasable axial fixing of the implant. The implant has a counter element suitable for fixing, which has at least two undercuts spaced apart relative to an axis of its body with one respective holding surface oriented in the direction of the interior of the body. The manipulating tool has at least two clamping jaws being at a radial distance from the central longitudinal axis of the actuating rod, for engaging behind the undercuts on the implant side. The clamping jaws are spaced apart in the peripheral direction. A kit for implant medicine includes a medical implant and a corresponding manipulating tool.

1. A manipulating tool for a medical implant, comprising:
an actuating rod defining a central longitudinal axis and having a front end and a rear end; a grip part fixed on said rear end of said actuating rod; a fixing element at said front end of said actuating rod, for releasably axially fixing the implant, said fixing element having at least two clamping jaws spaced at a radial distance from said central longitudinal axis of said actuating rod and, relative to an imaginary cylinder surface extending coaxially with said central longitudinal axis, mutually spaced apart in a peripheral direction, for respectively engaging behind at least one counter element on the implant; a locking device for rotationally locking the manipulating tool to the implant, said locking device including at least one locking element held in a rotationally fixed connection with said actuating rod and held axially displaceably on said actuating rod between a front position, defining an operating position thereof, and a rear position, defining a position of repose thereof, and said at least one locking element being configured for engaging with a stop surface of the implant in a rotationally fixed manner, said locking device including a hollow tube enclosing said actuating rod and being axially displaceable thereon, said hollow tube having a front end carrying said at least one locking element fixedly connected thereto; and said clamping jaws having outer edges facing away from said central longitudinal axis and disposed at a common radial distance from a circle circumscribing said clamping jaws, said common radial distance being constant irrespective of said locking element being in the operating position or the position of repose.
