Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of surgical instruments, in particular to a scleral flap making knife for glaucoma surgery. BACKGROUND

[0002] Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve caused by damage to the optic nerve from abnormally high pressure in the eye. It is divided into angle-closure glaucoma and open-angle glaucoma. The treatment of glaucoma is mainly to reduce the intraocular pressure, and the methods that can be used include drugs, laser and surgery. Among them, angle-closure glaucoma should be treated mainly by surgery, such as iridectomy or trabeculectomy.

[0003] At present, when treating angle-closure glaucoma by surgery, a flap making knife is needed to cut the scleral flap. In order to improve the effect of reducing intraocular pressure, the thickness of the scleral flap should be uniform and the wound surface should be smooth during the production of the rectangular scleral flap. However, the existing flap making knives are mostly simple in structure and are composed of a single blade and a handle. During use, the surgeon holds the handle and inserts the blade into the sclera, and then moves the blade by moving the arm and wrist to form a cutting action. However, the movement range of the blade driven by the surgeon's hand is large, and the cutting trajectory of the blade is not easy to control, so it is not convenient to cut the scleral flap with a smooth and flat wound surface and uniform thickness. Therefore, a scleral flap making knife for glaucoma surgery is proposed to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present application provides a scleral flap making knife for glaucoma surgery, which facilitates the control of the cutting trajectory of the blade and the cutting of the scleral flap with a smooth and flat wound surface and uniform thickness.

[0005] The scleral flap making knife for glaucoma surgery comprises:

[0009] The sclera flap making knife for glaucoma surgery has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] In the process of making the rectangular sclera flap, the two sets of blades are inserted into the sclera by holding the handle, then the handle is kept stationary, and then the rotating member is rotated, the rotating member rotates through the transmission assembly to slide the cutting mechanism, the sliding of the cutting assembly separates the two sets of blades and reciprocally moves them to form a cutting action, thereby cutting the sclera. In the process of cutting the sclera, the handle remains stationary, and the blades can be moved to cut the sclera by rotating the rotating member. The movement range of the hands of the surgical personnel is small, the cutting trajectory of the blades is easy to control, and the sclera flap with a smooth and flat wound surface and uniform thickness is easy to cut.

The two sets of guide seats are slidably arranged on the mounting seat along the long edge direction of the mounting seat, and the two sets of reciprocating assemblies are rotatably arranged on the two sets of guide seats and connected with the two sets of blades respectively. The reciprocating assembly is used to convert the sliding of the guide seat into the reciprocating movement of the blade along the wide edge direction of the mounting seat.

[0012] In one embodiment, the reciprocating assembly includes a push block, a shaft, a rack, and a first driving member. The push block is slidably arranged on the guide seat along the wide edge direction of the mounting seat and detachably connected with the blade.

The limiting of the movement of the guide bases away from each other can limit the moving distance of the blades driven by the guide bases, and thus the maximum moving distance of the blades can be limited to facilitate the control of the maximum size of the cut scleral flap.

[0017] In one of the embodiments, the limiting assembly comprises two groups of limiting seats and a third driving member; the two groups of limiting seats are movably arranged on the mounting base along the length direction of the mounting base and can abut against the side walls of the two groups of guide bases away from each other; the third driving member is rotatably arranged on the mounting base and connected with the two groups of limiting seats; and the rotation of the third driving member can drive the two groups of limiting seats to move away from or approach each other.

The two groups of limiting seats 162 are slidably arranged in the third through slot 131. By applying a certain force to the mounting cover 13 to make the elastic piece buckles 132 elastically deform, the elastic piece buckles 132 can be clamped in the elastic piece slots 111 or separated from the elastic piece slots 111.

When the limiting seat 162 moves, the indicating mark 1621 can be driven to move along the scale 133, thereby facilitating accurate adjustment of the distance between the two sets of limiting seats 162 and improving the accuracy of the adjustment.

[0057] The specific embodiment of the sclera flap knife for glaucoma surgery is:

[0058] First, according to the size of the rectangular sclera flap to be cut, the two sets of limiting seats 162 are relatively moved by rotating the second bidirectional screw 161 and the two sets of limiting seats 162 are threadedly connected, the two sets of limiting seats 162 are relatively moved to drive the indicating marks 1621 to move along the scales 133, when the indicating marks 1621 move to the specified position on the scale 133, the rotation of the second bidirectional screw 161 is stopped to position the two sets of limiting seats 162, at this time, the two sets of limiting seats 162 can limit the maximum size of the two sets of guide seats 153 driven by the blade 12 to move away, thereby limiting the size of the two sets of blades 12 to cut the sclera, and facilitating the cutting of the rectangular sclera flap with the required size.

[0059] Then the two groups of blades 12 are inserted into the patient's sclera by holding the handle 10, and then the handle 10 is kept stationary, the rotating member 141 is rotated by fingers, the rotating member 141 is rotated to drive the first bidirectional screw 143 by the meshing of the first transmission shaft 142, the universal joint 145, the second transmission shaft 146 and the two groups of bevel gears 144, the first bidirectional screw 143 is rotated to drive the two groups of guide seats 153 to move away from each other by the threaded cooperation of the first bidirectional screw 143 and the two groups of screw hole seats 154, the two groups of guide seats 153 move away from each other to drive the two groups of blades 12 to move away from each other, and at the same time that the two groups of guide seats 153 move away from each other, the guide seat 153 drives the gear 152 to move by the rotating shaft 157, the gear 152 is rotated to drive the rotating disc 158 to rotate by the meshing of the gear 152 and the rack 151, the rotating disc 158 is rotated to drive the eccentric rotating shaft 1581 to eccentric rotate in the push groove 1561, the eccentric rotating shaft 1581 slides in the push groove 1561 to drive the push block 156 to reciprocate, the push block 156 reciprocates to drive the blade 12 to reciprocate, so that the two groups of blades 12 move away from each other and reciprocate at the same time to form a cutting action to cut the sclera, when the two groups of guide seats 153 move away from each other and are in contact with the two groups of limiting seats 162, the two groups of guide seats 153 stop moving, at this time the rotating member 141 cannot be rotated, so that the two groups of blades 12 stop the cutting action, and the cutting of the rectangular scleral flap of the required size is completed, and finally the two groups of blades 12 are taken out of the sclera, in the process of cutting the rectangular scleral flap, the handle 10 is kept stationary, the blade 12 is moved to cut the sclera by rotating the rotating member 141, the movement range of the hands of the surgical personnel is small, the cutting trajectory of the blade 12 is convenient to control, and the scleral flap with a smooth and flat wound surface and uniform thickness is convenient to cut.
