Description

Knotter

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a knotter.

Background

In recent years, with the development of surgical instruments and cardiac surgical techniques, minimally invasive surgery has become a hot point for the development of various surgical departments. The minimally invasive surgery has the characteristics of small incision and quick recovery, and simultaneously requires operators to realize simple and quick postoperative suturing and knotting operations in the minimally invasive surgery environment. The knotting methods used clinically include two methods, i.e., manual knotting and instrumental knotting.

The conventional knotters for surgical use generally clamp a suture by plastically deforming a clamping head or a clamping member and then cut the suture by a cutting blade or a shearing blade. The defects of the cutting mode are as follows: when the cutting knife is used for cutting, firstly, the cutting knife is required to have higher sharpness, the cutting edge of the cutting knife made of common materials is easy to damage, and secondly, the suture line is required to be in a tightening state, the loose suture line is difficult to cut when the blade is conveyed; when the cutting knife is used, although the situation that the blade is not easy to cut loose sutures is improved, and the requirement on the sharpness of the blade edge is lowered, the handle of the cutting knife is propped open by the elastic piece, the part of the blade edge is kept open, and then the handle closes the cutting knife under the extrusion of the transmission rod so as to cut the sutures. The cutting mode of the shearing knife has high requirements on the compression strength and the processing precision of the elastic part of the handle, and the elastic part has the problems of loose connection and the like.

This allows the driving end to be moved by manually pressing or squeezing the operating end of the trigger 62, and then the driving end drives the driving member 40 to reciprocate in the tubular member 10, which in turn drives the punch mechanism 20 to move, thereby opening or closing the operating cavity 23. For example, the trigger 62 is hinged to the handle 61 to effect rotation, or the trigger 62 is slidably provided on the handle 61 to effect translation.

Further, the operation end has a pressing position where the operation chamber 23 is closed and a free position where the operation chamber 23 is open, and the driving mechanism 60 further includes: and an elastic member 63, one end of the elastic member 63 being connected to the trigger 62, the other end of the elastic member 63 being connected to the handle 61, the elastic member 63 being for restoring the operating end to a free position. By arranging the elastic member 63, the operating end of the punching and shearing mechanism 20 can automatically return to the free position after the clamping member 30 is pressed, and then the operating cavity 23 of the punching and shearing mechanism 20 returns to the open state under the action of the elasticity of the punching and shearing mechanism 20. This facilitates preparation for squeezing the other clamping member 30 for easy handling.
