DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The technical solutions of the present application are further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0020] The present embodiment provides a blood vessel forceps, which comprises a first forceps handle 1 and a second forceps handle 2; the first forceps handle 1 and the second forceps handle 2 are hinged through a rotating shaft; a distal end of the first forceps handle 1 forms a first forceps mouth 3, a distal end of the second forceps handle 2 forms a second forceps mouth 4, and opposite surfaces of the first forceps mouth 3 and the second forceps mouth 4 can be mutually adhered; the blood vessel forceps further comprises an electrotome assembly 5, which is arranged on the first forceps handle 1 and can be telescopically extended along an axial direction of the first forceps handle 1 and can be extended through a plane in which a distal end surface of the first forceps mouth 3 is located.

[0021] When a surgery starts, the electrotome assembly 5 arranged on the first forceps handle 1 is connected with an external power supply, and the electrotome assembly 5 is adjusted to be extended through the plane in which the distal end surface of the first forceps mouth 3 is located, and an electrotome 6 in the electrotome assembly 5 cuts tissues, and after the cutting is completed, the electrotome assembly 5 is retracted, and the first forceps mouth 3 and the second forceps mouth 4 of the blood vessel forceps are used to crush the tissues to be crushed. In this way, the operator does not need to use multiple instruments, and can hold one instrument, thereby shortening the surgery time, improving the surgery quality, and reducing the pain of the patient.

[0022] Preferably, the first forceps handle 1 further comprises a first channel 7, a first opening 8 and a first interface 9; the first opening 8 is arranged on an end surface of a distal end of the first forceps mouth 3; the first interface 9 is arranged on an end surface of a proximal end of the first forceps handle 1; and the first channel 7 communicates the first opening 8 and the first interface 9.

[0023] The electrotome assembly 5 comprises the electrotome 6 and a push member 10; the push member 10 is slidably arranged in the first channel 7; and the electrotome 6 is arranged on the push member 10 and can be extended through the plane in which the distal end surface of the first forceps mouth 3 is located along with the sliding of the push member 10.

[0024] The first interface 9 is an interface that can be connected to an external power source. The pushing member 10 is slidably arranged in the first channel 7 to drive the electric knife 6 to move in the first channel 7 until the electric knife 6 extends out of the first opening 8. Since the first opening 8 is arranged on the end surface of the distal end of the first jaw 3, the electric knife 6 forms a better operating position, which is convenient for the operator to perform the electric cutting on the tissue. In this way, the position of the electric knife 6 will not be affected by the first jaw 1 or the second jaw 2.

[0025] Preferably, the pushing member 10 comprises a conductive tube 11, an insulating tube 12 and an operating member 13. The distal end of the conductive tube 11 is in communication with the electric knife 6. The insulating tube 12 is wrapped around the periphery of the conductive tube 11. The operating member 13 is arranged on the insulating tube 12.

[0026] The first jaw 1 is provided with a second opening 14 on the circumferential surface, and the second opening 14 has a length in the axial direction. The second opening 14 is in communication with the first channel 7. One end of the operating member 13 passes through the second opening 14 and is fixed to the insulating tube 12. The other end of the operating member 13 passes out of the second opening 14.

[0027] The conductive tube 11 is in communication with the electric knife 6 and is connected to the power supply. The insulating tube 12 is wrapped around the periphery of the conductive tube 11, so that even when the electric knife 6 is conducting electricity, other parts of the vessel forceps will not be affected, thereby playing a good protection role. The operator pushes the other end of the operating member 13, and the one end of the operating member drives the insulating tube 12 to move, thereby driving the electric knife connected to the conductive tube 11 to move along the first channel 7. In this way, the operation is convenient and the structure is simple. Moreover, the operating space of the operating member 13 is limited by the length of the second opening 14 in the axial direction. In this way, the length of the electric knife 6 that needs to be extended or retracted can be determined according to the length of the second opening 14 in the axial direction, so as to facilitate the operator to better operate and judge the length of the electric knife 6.

[0028] Preferably, the upper surface of the first jaw 1 at the second opening 14 is provided with a scale. When the operator operates, the pushing length can be determined according to the scale.

[0029] Preferably, the operating member 13 is a "T" shape. The lower end of the vertical part of the "T" shape is fixed to the insulating tube 12. The horizontal part of the "T" shape spans over the second opening. In this way, the "T" shape design is more convenient for the operator to push.

[0030] The first handle 1 further comprises an absorbing port 15, a second channel 16 and a second interface 17. The absorbing port 15 is arranged on the end face of the distal end of the first jaw 3, the second interface 17 is arranged on the end face of the proximal end of the first handle 1, and the second channel 16 connects the absorbing port 15 and the second interface 17. After the tissue to be crushed is crushed by the vessel forceps, the crushed tissue can be sucked into the second channel 16 through the absorbing port 15 and then discharged through the second interface 17. The second interface 17 is an interface that can be connected to a suction device. When the crushed tissue needs to be sucked away, the second interface 17 is connected to the suction device and the absorbing port 15 connected to the second channel 16 sucks. In this way, the cutting, crushing and sucking are all completed on one instrument. The operator holds one instrument and does not need the close cooperation of an assistant, which is convenient and simple to operate, shortens the operation time and improves the operation quality.

[0031] The first jaw 3 is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 18 on the closure surface, and the second jaw 4 is provided with a plurality of second protrusions on the closure surface. The first protrusions 18 and the second protrusions are engaged with each other. In this way, when the tissue is crushed, the first protrusions 18 and the second protrusions are engaged with each other, and the blood vessels or bile ducts are squeezed into the gap between the protrusions. Compared with the sharp rack structure arranged on the closure surface in the prior art, the structure of the plurality of protrusions can squeeze the blood vessels or bile ducts into the gap between them, so that the blood vessels or bile ducts are not easily damaged when the liver parenchyma is crushed and disconnected, which greatly reduces the risk of bleeding and bile leakage during the operation.

[0032] The plurality of first protrusions 18 occupy 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 of the closure surface of the first jaw. In this way, the operator can more conveniently and multifunctionally use the vessel forceps.

[0033] The first protrusions 18 and the second protrusions are both hemispherical or semi-ellipsoidal or other curved surface structures. The hemispherical or semi-ellipsoidal or other curved surface structure of the protrusions can greatly disperse the clamping force on the blood vessels and bile ducts, and can also avoid the problem that the sharp conical protrusions excessively pull the tissue, resulting in too little contact between the tissue and the vessel forceps and difficulty in grasping the force, which can easily damage the blood vessels or bile ducts. Therefore, the hemispherical or semi-ellipsoidal or other curved surface structure is a better structure.

[0034] The above embodiments are only for description and do not represent the advantages and disadvantages of the embodiments.

[0035] It should be pointed out finally that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit the same; and although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments can be modified, or some technical features thereof can be replaced equivalently; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
