[0049] As Figures 1 to 12As shown, the electrode lead wire conveying system provided by the present application for facilitating cutting and removing the sheath tube comprises a conveying carrier, a cutting assembly 20, and a driving handle 30. The conveying carrier has a pistol-shaped shell 11 and a sheath tube seat 12 movably arranged in the shell 11. The sheath tube seat 12 is provided with a through hole 121 for penetrating the sheath tube 1. The through hole 121 extends in the front-rear direction. The moving direction of the sheath tube seat 12 is the axial direction of the through hole 121. The sheath tube seat 12 is provided with a rotatable clamping member 13. The clamping member 13 has a clamping working position and a loosening working position. When the clamping member 13 is in the clamping working position, the clamping member 13 abuts the sheath tube 1 along the radial direction against the inner wall of the through hole 121, so that the sheath tube seat 12 can drive the sheath tube 1 to move synchronously. When the clamping member 13 is in the loosening working position, the clamping member 13 is separated from the sheath tube 1, and the sheath tube seat 12 can move forward relative to the sheath tube 1. The cutting assembly 20 is movably arranged in the shell 11 and located at the rear side of the sheath tube seat 12. The cutting assembly 20 is provided with a plow-shaped blade 21 facing the sheath tube seat 12. The cutting assembly 20 has an upper working position and a lower working position. When the cutting assembly 20 is in the upper working position, the blade 21 is higher than the wall thickness of at least one sheath tube 1 and lower than the electrode lead wire 2 in the sheath tube 1. When the cutting assembly 20 is in the lower working position, the blade 21 is lower than the lower edge of the through hole 121. The driving handle 30 is movably arranged on the shell 11 and lower than the sheath tube seat 12. The driving handle 30 is in transmission connection with the clamping member 13 and the cutting assembly 20. When the driving handle 30 moves backward, the clamping member 13 can be driven to change to the clamping working position and synchronously drive the cutting assembly 20 to change to the upper working position. The sheath tube seat 12 can also be driven by the clamping member 13 in the clamping working position to move toward the blade 21 (move backward), so that the blade 21 cuts into the end of the sheath tube 1 to realize the cutting and removal of the sheath tube 1.

[0050] The advantages of such arrangement are that the doctor can perform the cutting and removal operation of the sheath tube 1 with one hand, only needs to move the driving handle 30, the operation is simple, the stability is good, the difficulty is small, the depth of the blade 21 cutting into the sheath tube 1 in the radial direction is controllable, the electrode lead wire is not easy to be damaged, and the surgical risk can be greatly reduced.

[0051] In the embodiment, the holding member 13 has a pressing strip 131 located in the through hole 121 and a rotating strip 132 vertically connected to the end of the pressing strip 131, the rotating shaft of the holding member 13 is located at the vertical connection of the pressing strip 131 and the rotating strip 132, the rotating direction of the holding member 13 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the sheath seat 12, that is, the rotating shaft of the holding member 13 extends horizontally along the left-right direction, the pressing strip 131 extends along the axial direction of the through hole 121 and is arranged close to the inner wall of the through hole 121, the surface of the pressing strip 131 towards the axial line of the through hole 121 is a circular arc surface matched with the outer wall surface of the sheath 1, a plurality of convex ridge-shaped clamping teeth 133 extending in the circumferential direction are arranged on the circular arc surface, the end of the rotating strip 132 penetrates the sheath seat 12 along the radial direction of the through hole 121 and extends downward to be in transmission connection with the driving handle 30.

[0052] The advantage of the arrangement is that the pressing strip 131 can be circumferentially clamped with the sheath 1 by rotating the holding member 13, the sheath 1 is uniformly stressed and is not easily deformed locally, when the sheath seat 12 drives the sheath 1 to move backward, the electrode lead 2 in the sheath 1 will not follow the movement, the movement of the sheath 1 can be avoided to cause the displacement or falling of the pacing electrode, and the risk of the surgery is reduced.

[0053] In the embodiment, the driving handle 30 is located between the sheath seat 12 and the cutting assembly 20, and moves in the front-back direction which is parallel to the moving direction of the sheath seat 12, the driving handle 30 is in transmission connection with the holding member 13 through the first transmission plate 31, specifically, the first transmission plate 31 is located below the sheath seat 12 and extends in the front-back direction which is parallel to the moving direction of the driving handle 30, that is, the first transmission plate 31 extends in the front-back direction, the front end of the first transmission plate 31 is in transmission connection with the end of the rotating strip 132 extending out of the sheath seat 12, and the rear end of the first transmission plate 31 is in transmission connection with the upper end of the driving handle 30, the transmission shafts of the two ends of the first transmission plate 31 are parallel and arranged at the same height to avoid the dead point during transmission; for the convenience of resetting, the electrode lead delivery system further comprises a reset tension spring 32 for driving the driving handle 30 to reset, the reset tension spring 32 is arranged from the front upper side to the rear lower side, the front end of the reset tension spring 32 is connected to the inner wall of the housing 11, and the rear end of the reset tension spring 32 is connected to the transmission shaft of the rotating strip 132 and the first transmission plate 31.

[0055] The advantage of the arrangement is that, during the reset, the rotation angle of the clamping member 13 can be limited by the abutting of the gap 134 and the end of the avoiding groove 122, thereby improving the reset efficiency. Meanwhile, the abutting of the gap 134 and the end of the avoiding groove 122 is one-way abutting, which only limits the downward rotation of the clamping member 13 and does not hinder the upward rotation of the clamping member 13 and the disengagement of the gap 134.

When the safety pin 34 is separated from the circular hole 331, the driving handle 30 can move relative to the shell 11.

[0057] In order to facilitate the locking and unlocking of the safety assembly, in the embodiment, the end of the safety plate 33 is further provided with a flat hole 332 extending in the front-rear direction. The front end of the flat hole 332 penetrates the outer wall surface of the front end of the safety plate 33, and the rear end is communicated with the circular hole 331.

The midpoint of the width direction of the flat hole 332 constitutes a virtual plane passing through the axis of the circular hole 331. The safety pin 34 is rotatably inserted into the shell 11. The inner end of the safety pin 34 is flat, and its thickness is matched (equal or slightly smaller than the width of the flat hole 332) with the width of the flat hole 332. When the safety pin 34 is rotated to be aligned with the flat hole 332, the driving handle 30 can move backward relative to the shell 11, so that the inner end of the safety pin 34 enters the flat hole 332, thereby separating from the circular hole 331 and the safety plate 33. In order to facilitate operation, further, the outer end of the safety pin 34 is vertically connected with a driving plate 341.
