DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0024] The present disclosure will be illustrated in detail below with preferred embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, the shape and scale of the diagrams disclosed in each embodiment below are intended to account for the technical features of the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the aspects of the present disclosure on the practical implementation.

[0025] The technical contents, objective and effects of the present disclosure will be disclosed completely and clearly hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference is made to FIGS. 1 to 4, FIG. 1 is a side cross-sectional view of a bone screw fixing rod and manipulation structure thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged perspective view of a first front end of a fixing member and a second front end of a moving member of the bone screw fixing rod and manipulation structure thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 3 is a three-dimensional view of a bone screw fixing rod of the bone screw fixing rod and manipulation structure thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the bone screw fixing rod of the bone screw fixing rod and manipulation structure thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0027] It can be seen from FIGS. 1 to 4 that a bone screw fixing rod and its manipulation structure 1 includes a bone screw fixing rod 2, a fixing member 3, a moving member 4 and a gripping part 5.

[0028] The cross-section shape of the bone screw fixing rod 2 is not limited to a specific shape and may be circular, oval, square or polygonal.

[0029] The fixing member 3 has a first front end 6 and a first distal end 7 opposite to each other, the first front end 6 is provided with a groove 8 for accommodating and fixing the bone screw fixing rod 2.

[0030] The moving member 4 has a second front end 9 and a second distal end 10 opposite to each other, the second front end 9 is provided with a notch 11 for limiting and moving the bone screw fixing rod 2, and the second distal end 10 is provided with a first thread 12.

[0031] The gripping part 5 has an accommodating space 13 and a rotating part 14, the accommodating space 13 is disposed at top end of the gripping part 5 and the rotating part 14 is disposed at bottom end of the gripping part 5. The accommodating space 13 is used for accommodating the first distal end 7 of the fixing member 3 and the second distal end 10 of the moving member 4, and a side wall of the accommodating space 13 is provided with a second thread 15 engaged with the first thread 12. The rotating part 14 is connected with the second distal end 10.

[0032] Preferably, a length of the first thread 12 is greater than a length of the second thread 15.

[0033] The bone screw fixing rod 2 has two sides that are parallel to each other and provided with linear grooves 16, respectively. Two ends inside the groove 8 of the fixing member 3 are provided with first convex points 17, respectively, and the first convex points 17 at the two ends inside the groove 8 are parallel to each other and can be respectively engaged into the linear grooves 16 of bone screw fixing rod 2 to fix the bone screw fixing rod 2.

[0034] A second convex point 18 is provided on a side wall of the notch 11 of the moving member 4, and can be engaged into the linear groove 16 to move the bone screw fixing rod 2.

[0035] Reference is further made to FIGS. 5 and 6, FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing a movement of the moving member made along the fixing member of the bone screw fixing rod and manipulation structure thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram showing bone screws being connected in series and fixed by the bone screw fixing rod in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0036] It can be seen from FIGS. 5 and 6 that the fixing member 3 and the moving member 4 of the bone screw fixing rod and its manipulation structure 1 are attached to each other, when the rotating part 14 is rotated to rotate the first thread 12 along the second thread 15, the moving member 4 can be controlled to move along the fixing member 3, so as to adjust an angle between the bone screw fixing rod 2 and the fixing member 3, which is beneficial to place the bone screw fixing rod 2 at a smaller angle into the incision made during the minimally invasive surgery to connect multiple bone screws 19 in series and fix the bone screws 19.

[0037] In summary, by rotating the rotating part, the moving member can be moved along the fixing member, the angle between the bone screw fixing rod and the fixing member can be adjusted. Based on the angle of the location of the to-be-fixed bone screw, the bone screw fixing rod and the fixing member can be placed into the incision made during the minimally invasive surgery at the most appropriate angle. Compared with the existing bone screw rod manipulation structure, the size of the incision made during the minimally invasive surgery can be greatly reduced and minimized, so as to meet the requirement of minimizing the soft tissue damage at the surgical site.

[0038] The present disclosure has been described above with preferred embodiments, but the description of preferred embodiments is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.
