VARIABLE ANGLE BONE PLATE

A bone plate having at least one variable angle locking hole is described. The variable angle locking hole allows a bone anchor having a threaded head to be driven into underlying bone while orientedat an angle with respect to a central hole axis of the hole that is within a range of angles at which the head is configured to threadedly mate with the at least one thread of the bone plate. Accordingly, the bone anchor can be driven into the underlying bone until the threaded head threadedly purchases with the bone plate inside the variable angle locking hole. 本发明描述了一种骨板，该骨板具有至少一个可变角度锁定孔。该可变角度锁定孔允许具有螺纹头部的骨锚被驱动到下面的骨中，同时相对于该孔的中心孔轴线成一角度取向，该角度在一定角度范围内，在该角度范围内，头部被构造成与该骨板的至少一个螺纹螺纹配合。因此，该骨锚可被驱动到下面的骨中，直到螺纹头部在该可变角度锁定孔内与该骨板螺纹地抓紧。
