Research Abstract |
For the emerging materials for actuators and advances in processing methods, needs that could not be fulfilled with existing materials are increasingly being met. In this study, an implantable bone elongation device using actuators was developed. We constructed a deceleration mechanism with external and internal gears and fabricated an annular-gear with a ferromagnetic material, which allows translational/oscillating motions. We have managed to drive a bone elongation device in a contact-free manner by controlling the position of the external magnet using it as a driving source.
