2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as an example of an orthopedic investment material that is attached and fixed to a bone that needs to be orthopedic in the spine, occipital bone, cervical vertebra, lumbar vertebrae, or the like, a tip made of a stainless steel rod is bent, It is known that a rectangular or oval rod-shaped body having a width of about 2 cm and a length of 3 to 40 cm is bent and shaped. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, these orthopedic investment materials are used to bend or twist each part of the rod-like body by using a plurality of bending instruments or measures so as to fit the orthopedic region of the occipital region and cervical spine. It is mounted and fixed on the bone by using a thin stainless wire, bolts and nuts and the like, and the elastic force of these rod-shaped bodies is used to give a corrective stress.

However, these orthopedic investment materials must be attached and fixed to bones and must remain in the body for a long time, and must be materials that can withstand the sterilization temperature. If relatively expensive metals such as silver, nickel, titanium, etc. are used and are bent or deformed once to fit a specific shaping site, subtle deformation will occur even if they are used again for other sites. It has been considered extremely difficult to restore. In addition, it takes a long time to perform the deformation and bending to adapt to the shape of the orthopedic site during the operation, and the bending by the bending instrument cannot be appropriately performed in a short time, which makes the patient physically, There were also problems such as giving mental distress.

In the present invention, as a prototype of the orthopedic investment material suitable for the region requiring shaping, a Ti-Ni-based or Cu-based shape memory alloy or a polyisoprene-based shape memory synthetic resin is used to provide a flexible scale Since it is equipped with a straight rod, a rectangular or oval rod-shaped molding tool, it can be quickly modeled as a prototype close to the shaping site by adding bending and twisting,
Using the scale as a guide, it became easy to properly select and process the orthopedic investment material. After this mold making tool is sterilized by heating in an autoclave at about 120 degrees, it returns to the original straight rod, rectangular or oval rod-shaped body, so it can be used as a prototype any number of times. Subtle bends that were once plastically deformed no longer remain. In addition, when the orthopedic investment material is molded over a long period of time during surgery, the original mold has flexibility without making a complicated curve directly at the position close to the surgical site. If you do, you can easily obtain the original shaped investment material by using the scale at another place. If the diameter of the rod-shaped body is selected to be suitable for the shape of the shaping part and the required corrective stress and it is molded with a shape memory alloy or synthetic resin, it is possible to plastically deform the shaped investment material having the same diameter as the shape. It's extremely easy.
