Abstract

The invention relates to a designing method of an artificial joint bearing surface micro-hole texture capable of improving lubricating performance and abrasion-resistant performance. The artificial joint bearing surface micro-hole texture comprises a joint head of an artificial joint and a joint cup of the artificial joint, wherein the joint head and the joint cup are made of hard metal or alloy or coating or ceramic. At least one friction surface exists in mutual-friction surfaces of the joint head and the joint cup, namely the friction surfaces on the joint head or on the joint cup or between the joint head and the joint cup, and micro-hole arrays are distributed on the friction surfaces. The artificial joint bearing surface micro-hole texture has the advantages that the micro-hole texture can enable fluid hydrodynamic lubrication to be produced on the friction surfaces which are contacted mutually, squeezing liquid films with certain thicknesses are formed in friction pair contacting surfaces so that direct coarse contact of the contacting surfaces is reduced, and fiction coefficients are reduced, and therefore friction force is lowered and bearing capacity is improved. As an oil storage groove, the micro-hole texture lubricates boundaries or the friction surfaces when the joint is just started, abrasion scraps are captured, abrasion is reduced, and service life is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of artificial joint implantation equipment and biotribology, in particular to a design method of microporous texture on the bearing surface of artificial joints to improve lubrication and wear resistance. Background technique [0002] Hard / hard artificial joints (Co-Cr-Mo / Co-Cr-Mo, Al 2 o 3 / Al 2 o 3 ) has excellent wear resistance and is the development direction of long-life artificial joints. However, due to poor lubrication in the body and poor wettability between metal and body fluid, it is difficult for metal to metal to form hydrodynamic lubrication at low sliding speeds, and the body is often in a mixed lubrication state with a high friction coefficient. Therefore, a large amount of metal wear debris will still be produced during its use, and the metal wear debris will penetrate into the blood, causing soft tissue infection and even systemic poisoning of the patient, seriously affecting its reliability a...
