  • Publication number: 20190110815
    Abstract: An orthopaedic attachment device (1) which can adopt at least two positions, an inoperative position and a locked position. The orthopaedic attachment device comprises two clamps (2a, 2b) mounted opposite each other through a resilient member, and held by a clamping rod along a median axis by through-holes. Each of the clamps (2a, 2b) comprises a body part that comprises a outer jaw (4b) and an inner jaw (4a), connected by a joining wall (5), and which defines an opening that is designed to accommodate a stiffening bar or a pin via an insert. The opening extends inwards from the clamp (2a, 2b) as far as the joining wall (5) towards a passage and a hinge region. In the inoperative position, the outer jaw (4b) is fixed, whereas the inner jaw (4a) is moveable inwards towards the resilient member.
