发明名称 Outer shell for an at least two-shell joint socket of a hip joint prosthesis
摘要 The outer shell (5) comprises a plurality of through-holes (12) which are provided for the receipt of fastening elements (14) for the fastening of the outer shell (5) in a bone seat (4) and which are each provided with an inner counter-sink (25). The through-holes (12) which are free of fastening elements (14) are each provided with a sealing plug (15) which is insertable from the inside outwards and designed with a sealing surface supportable in and extending around the counter-sink (25). The sealing plug (15) comprises a number of spiral springs (18) which are insertable into the relevant through-hole (12) and form a snap connection with the wall of the through-hole (12), as well as a hat-like central projection (17) disposed separated from the spiral springs (18) which is provided with an inwardly open blind bore (17a) for the receipt of a placement tool (20) screwable into it. A reliable sealing off of the through-holes (12) is thus achieved and escape into the bone seat 4 of any rubbed-off particles produced within the outer shell 5 is prevented.
