Some examples are the femoral components of atotal or partial hip replacement or shoulder in which the headand base component are secured together by a self-lockingtaper.1.2 This test method ha
4、s been developed primarily forevaluation of metal and ceramic head designs on metal tapersbut may have application to other materials and designs.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not pur
5、port to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 The axial disassembly test method provides a means tomeasure the axial locking strength of the taper connection formodular prostheses.3.2 Following assem
7、bly, an axial tensile force is applied todisassemble the taper connection and the maximum force isrecorded.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method helps to assess the axial locking forceof a modular taper. Examples of these devices are described inSpecification F1636. Some types of devices that
8、may utilizethis type of connection are the modular shoulder and modularhip prostheses. Additional means of evaluating the lockingmechanisms of tapers may be appropriate, depending upon thedesign of the device.4.2 This test method may not be appropriate for all implantapplications. The user is cautio
9、ned to consider the appropriate-ness of the practice in view of the materials and design beingtested and their potential application.4.3 While this test method may be used to measure the forcerequired to disengage tapers, any comparison of such data forvarious component designs must take into consid

The cone shouldprovide line contact around the diameter of the head.5.2.2 For example, modular heads may be disassembledwith a metal cage that surrounds the head and
12、 provides evencontact around the inferior edge of the head as shown in Fig. 2.5.3 The testing machine shall conform to the requirementsof Practices E4. The loads used to determine the attachmentstrength shall be within the range of the testing machine asdefined in Practices E4.5.4 The test machine s
13、hould be capable of delivering acompressive and tensile force at a constant displacement rate.The test machine should have a load monitoring and recordingsystem.6.

17、 material around the female taper shall besimilar in size and shape to the finished implant.6.3 A minimum of five taper assemblies shall be tested todetermine the axial disassembly force between the taperedcomponents. Pairing of the components shall be random unlessotherwise reported. The appropriat

Generally,sterilization does not have an effect on metallic materials.
19、7. Procedure7.1 Following normal laboratory cleaning procedures toremove any debris or other surface contaminants, the tapercomponents are assembled on a suitable test machine. Asuggested procedure for cleaning and drying of the specimensis given in Appendix X1.7.2 Each specimen should be characteri
20、zed prior to testing.This information may include, but is not limited to, thefollowing: material, hardness, bore and taper diameters, con-centricity, surface roughness, taper angle, and length of en-gagement.7.3 Tapers can be assembled using two methods. Dependingon the intended use, the user may us

22、gested displacement rate is 0.05 mm/s.7.3.2 Drop Weight Assembly MethodThe two componentsmay be assembled with an impact load, that is, a 907-g weightdropped from a 254-mm height.7.4 Disassembly ProcedureThe taper assembly should beplaced in appropriate fixtures in a qualified test machine. Thefixtu
23、re should be capable of maintaining the load axis angle towithin 61. Special care should be taken to ensure that noartificial hoop stresses or bending moments are placed on thetaper assembly while disassembling the tapers. A displacementrate of 0.05 mm/s may be used. The load and displacementshould
24、be recorded continuously until the test is terminated.7.5 Testing of each specimen shall be terminated when thedisassembly load drops by at least 90 % of the peak load.8. Report8.1 The test report shall include the following:8.1.1 The device name, materials, assembly method, loadversus displacement
25、graph, sample size, and manufacturer andlot number, if applicable. Additional information pertaining tothe drop weight method is desirable and may include, but is notlimited to, the following: description of the drop weightapparatus, drop weight mass, drop height.8.1.2 The maximum load required to d

30、2.1 It is not the intent of this method to specificallyaddress the locking mechanisms ability to maintain its integ-rity with sequential assemblies and disassemblies. If deemedappropriate by the user, the method could be considered fordetermining the ability of the locking mechanism to resistdegrada

This concept provides features to suit the patient asplanned preoperatively, or selected intraoperatively by thesurgeon such as component material, neck len

33、 directly related4,5a repeat-able assembly method is recommended in order to comparedissociation forces.X2.3.1 Other assembly methods, however, could be desir-able. Two other methods have been discussed: the dropped-weight impact method and manufacturers recommendation.Some manufacturers may provide
34、 a tool that delivers therecommended force to assemble the modular components.These methods could be justified, but because of the potentialvariation in assembly loads and limited access to instruments,these methods are not recommended for this test method. Forthe instances that necessitate these as
35、sembly methods, properdocumentation detailing the procedure should be required.X2.4 An aspect of modular junction integrity to considermay be the effect of fatigue. Fatigue is known to affect themechanical stability of materials and components that fittogether. It may be necessary to determine the p
