Abstract: The invention relates to a base platform (11) for an artificial joint, in particular for an artificial shoulder joint, wherein the platform can be anchored on the bone and serves as a support for an artificial joint component (15, 17) that can be provided both in the form of a shell component (15) for an anatomical configuration and also in the form of a ball component (17) for an inverse configuration, and wherein different joint components can be mounted on the platform.

Abstract: An insert (11) of a joint ball receptacle of a prosthetic shoulder joint according to the invention has a first side (I) with a depression (15) for receiving a joint ball, and a second side (II) which is provided and formed for being received in a shell (13) of the joint ball receptacle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a glenoid anchor for a joint part having a plate which can be mounted on the resected glenoid bone and which has bores for fastening elements for the anchorage in the glenoid bone and a stump for the fastening of the joint part, with the stump being firmly connected to the plate and having a mount with a conical surface at its inner side for a press fit with a conical spigot of the joint part. The invention furthermore relates to a joint connection having a glenoid anchor and a joint part which can be fastened to the glenoid anchor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ball draw-off apparatus for shaft prostheses with balls (3) which can be placed onto the prosthesis neck (2). The apparatus has two rotary bodies (5a, 5b) which are rotatably supported in a housing (4), which can in each case be rotated with a lever arm (6a, 6b) and which with their axes of rotation (7a, 7b) lie in a common plane and form an open gap S in the projection onto the plane F for the introduction of the prosthesis neck (2). The rotary bodies have a profile which with increasing rotation decreases the gap S for clamping the prosthesis neck (2) and causes an increase of the distance of its upper edge (9a, 9b) from the plane F in order to produce a draw-off force P at the placed on ball directly or indirectly via an intermediate body.
