Example 1
As shown in fig. 2, the medical catheter of this embodiment includes a tubular body 2, a distal end of the tubular body 2 is connected to the developing section 1 by heat fusion, and a proximal end of the tubular body 2 is bonded to the hub 3. Fig. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view of the catheter body 2 at the location of the distal end marker B of the medical catheter in fig. 2, from which it can be seen that the catheter body 2 comprises an outer tube 4, a reinforcing layer 5 and an inner tube 6, the distal end of the outer tube 4 being connected to the proximal end of the visualization section 1. The inner tube 6 is provided with a plurality of parallel slits 7, the slits 7 extend axially on the inner tube 6, the distance L1 between the distal ends of the slits 7 and the end of the inner tube 6 is 3mm, and the length L2 of the slits 7 is 50 mm. Fig. 4 is an enlarged partial view of fig. 3 at the position marked C, showing the hydrophilic coating 8 on the outside of the outer tube 4. Fig. 5 shows the inner tube 6 alone to further view the plurality of continuous slits 71 in the inner tube 6. Fig. 6 is a schematic view of the reinforcing layer 5 and the inner tube 6 remaining after the outer tube 4 of the tubular body 2 is removed, and the reinforcing layer 5 is a mesh-like coil formed by weaving a metal wire.
Example 2
As shown in fig. 7, the medical catheter of the present embodiment is different from the medical catheter of embodiment 1 in that a plurality of parallel intermittent slits 72 are provided in the inner tube 6, and both ends of the adjacent slits 72 are aligned.
With the aligned interrupted slits of example 2, when the distal end of the catheter encounters a large resistance, the stress transmitted axially at the slits is easily released in stages from the distal end of the catheter to the proximal end.
Example 3
As shown in fig. 8, the medical catheter of the present embodiment is different from the medical catheter of embodiment 1 in that a plurality of parallel intermittent slits 72 are provided in the inner tube 6, and both ends of the adjacent slits 72 are offset forward and backward by a certain distance.
With the staggered interrupted slits of example 3, the stress transmission capability of the catheter is further improved over the medical catheter of example 2.
Example 4
As shown in fig. 9, the medical catheter of the present embodiment is different from the medical catheter of embodiment 1 in that a plurality of sinusoidal slits 73 are provided in the inner tube 6, and the peaks and valleys of each slit correspond one-to-one. With respect to the first 3 embodiments, the sinusoidal slits 73 can ensure the transmission of force in the axial direction and the transmission of force in the circumferential direction (coaxial rotation capability) of the catheter while changing the compliance of the catheter tube.
Example 5

Example 7
As shown in fig. 12, the medical catheter of the present example is different from the medical catheter of example 4 in that sine-wave-shaped slits 73 in the inner layer tube 6 are welded by a heat-melting process to form sine-wave-shaped weld marks 92. Similar to the medical catheter in example 5, the use of the weld mark helps to balance the flexibility and stress conductivity of the catheter, prevent the member placed inside the medical catheter from catching the slit on the inner tube 6 when moving, and prevent the inner tube 6 and the catheter body from peeling off in some cases.
Example 8
As shown in fig. 13, the medical catheter of the present embodiment is different from the medical catheter of embodiment 1 in that the outer tube 4 is similarly provided with a plurality of parallel slits 7, and the slits 7 extend in the axial direction in the outer tube 4. The medical catheter of the embodiment is provided with the parallel slits on the outer tube 4, which contributes to further improving the flexibility of the catheter and preventing the inner tube 6 from being peeled off from the catheter body in some cases.
Example 9
As shown in fig. 14, the medical catheter of the present example is different from the medical catheter of example 8 in that the slits 7 of the outer layer tube 4 and the inner layer tube 6 are fused by a heat fusion process to form weld marks 9. Similar to the medical catheter in example 5, the use of the weld mark helps to balance the flexibility and stress conductivity of the catheter, prevent the member placed inside the medical catheter from catching the slit on the inner tube 6 when moving, and prevent the inner tube 6 and the catheter body from peeling off in some cases.
