Patent number: 6383185Abstract: The medullary nail (10) for bone distraction has an electric motor drive (20) that is located in its interior (11), preferably in its interior (11) in the area of its tip (12), and is connected with a reception antenna (32) for feeding energy via an electrical connection (31). The reception antenna (32) and the electrical connection (31) are located entirely in the interior (11) of the medullary nail (10). The medullary nail (10) is equipped with an orifice (14), which faces the reception antenna (32) and allows the feeding of energy.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2000Date of Patent: May 7, 2002Inventor: Rainer Baumgart

Patent number: 5976138Abstract: The distraction system for long bones includes a guide socket (42) and an intramedullary pin (10). It will make possible, in addition to elongation, also a segmental dislocation, as well as a segmental dislocation in combination with an elongation without repeated surgical intervention, while assuring a sufficient pressure on the bone contact surfaces of the docking site. Intramedullary pin (10) is thus provided on its outside wall with a projection (41) which engages in a longitudinal hole (43) in guide socket (42), whereby intramedullary pin (10) is secured against rotation by means of guide socket (42) attached in the long bone, but can be displaced axially.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 1998Date of Patent: November 2, 1999Inventors: Rainer Baumgart, Augustin Betz

Patent number: 5474553Abstract: The setting device for tubular bone fractures (3,4) consists of a longitudinally extended flattened setting element (20) and of bone screws (10), which in each case are connected to one other by means of a screw (11) and a cone (16) in addition to a taper segment section (15). The setting element (20) has an essentially rectangular cross-section of tissue-compatible high-density material, in particular of implant steel. In each of the two end sections (21) of the setting element (20), at least two bores are provided, which extend through the opposite wide sides thereof. The bone screws (10) are guided through these bores. The setting element (20) consists integrally of the two relatively rigid end pieces (21) and a connection piece (31) lying therebetween. This connection piece (31) is in comparison with the end sections (21) elastic as its cross-section is smaller than that of the end sections (21).Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 1995Date of Patent: December 12, 1995Assignees: Rainer Baumgart, Augustin Betz, Reiner SeiboldInventor: Rainer Baumgart

Patent number: 5263955Abstract: A medullary nail (10) has a cavity (12) in which an inner part (20) can slide longitudinally without being able to rotate. The wall (11) of the medullary nail (10) which forms the cavity (12) is traversed on opposite sides by an elongated hole (16) in the region of the driving-in end (14). At least one fastening hole (22) aligned flush with the elongated hole (16) is provided in the inner part (20). When the connecting screws are driven into the spaced fastening holes (15, 16, 22) and an osteotomy is located between the connecting screws (15, 22), the edges of the osteotomy are moved apart as the inner part slides longitudinally, and the slowly widening gap between the edges of the osteotomy becomes filled with bone tissue.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 1991Date of Patent: November 23, 1993Inventors: Rainer Baumgart, Augustin Betz
