Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a handle, a delivery device and a medical system. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of endoluminal techniques, the use of medical implants such as medical stents has gained wide acceptance by radiologists, cardiologists and surgeons. These medical implants are used to support various lumina in the body including arteries, veins, airways, gastrointestinal tract, biliary tract, etc. The preferred method of implanting medical implants is to use a dedicated delivery device to precisely deliver and release the medical implant at a predetermined location via the body's own lumina. With the aid of the small outer diameter of the delivery device, the surgeon can minimize the surgical incision to achieve minimally invasive operation.

[0003] Medical implants are generally plastically deformable (e.g. medical stents expanded by a balloon) or elastically deformable (e.g. self-expandable medical stents). The medical implant is delivered by the delivery device to the predetermined location of the target lumen in a compressed state, and after being released, the medical implant can be expanded to the working state diameter by external force (e.g. the force provided by the balloon) or under its own action.

[0004] For self-expandable stents, especially braided stents, significant axial elongation occurs when they are compressed onto the delivery device, usually more than twice the initial length. During the release of the medical stent, the medical stent shortens axially due to radial expansion, which can cause the medical stent to deviate from the predetermined position, thereby adversely affecting the treatment effect. SUMMARY

When the delivery device delivers the compressed medical implant to a predetermined position in the target lumen, it begins releasing the medical implant. During the release process, the driving unit drives the inner tube seat to move in a proximal-to-distal direction, driving the inner tube and the entire medical implant to move in a proximal-to-distal direction. Simultaneously, the outer tube seat drives the outer tube to move in a distal-to-proximal direction. This overall proximal-to-distal movement of the medical implant compensates for axial shortening caused by radial expansion during the release process, thereby improving positioning accuracy during release and enhancing therapeutic efficacy. Furthermore, the driving unit alternately drives the inner tube seat to move in proximal-to-distal and distal-to-proximal directions, allowing the inner tube to repeatedly move axially. The barbs are then used to gradually remove the medical implant, reducing the problem of high release resistance and improving the patency of the medical implant during release.

[0076] Figure 1 FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a handle 100 provided in one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the handle 100 includes a base 1000, a transmission part 2000 ( Figure 1 Not shown, see Figure 9 and Figure 10 ), an outer tube seat 3000, an inner tube seat 4000, and a drive unit 5000. The base 1000 includes a guide rail 1100 and a transmission seat 1200. The transmission unit 2000 is disposed on the transmission seat 1200. The outer tube seat 3000 is connected to the transmission unit 2000 and is also selectively connected to or disconnected from the guide rail 1100. When the outer tube seat 3000 is connected to the guide rail 1100, it is at least prevented from moving in a distal-to-proximal direction relative to the guide rail 1100. When the outer tube seat 3000 is disconnected from the guide rail 1100, it is allowed to move relative to the guide rail 1100. The inner tube seat 4000 is connected to the transmission unit 2000. The drive unit 5000 is configured to drive the inner tube seat 4000 to move axially relative to the guide rail 1100. The “axial” mentioned herein generally refers to the axial direction of the handle 100 , the “radial” refers to the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the handle 100 , and the “circumferential” refers to the direction surrounding the axis of the handle 100 , unless otherwise expressly stated in the content.

[0077] When the outer tube base 3000 is disconnected from the guide rail 1100 and the driving unit 5000 drives the inner tube base 4000 to move in the direction from the proximal end to the distal end, the transmission base 1200 and the guide rail 1100 remain relatively stationary, and the transmission unit 2000 transmits power between the inner tube base 4000 and the outer tube base 3000 to drive the outer tube base 3000 to move in the direction from the distal end to the proximal end. When the outer tube base 3000 is connected to the guide rail 1100 and the driving unit 5000 drives the inner tube base 4000 to move in the direction from the distal end to the proximal end, the outer tube base 3000 and the guide rail 1100 remain relatively stationary, and the transmission unit 2000 transmits power between the inner tube base 4000 and the transmission base 1200 to drive the transmission base 1200 to move in the direction from the distal end to the proximal end.

[0078] Please refer toFigure 2 The handle 100 is applied to a delivery device 10. The delivery device 10 further comprises a catheter mechanism 200, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The catheter mechanism 200 comprises an outer tube 210, an inner tube 220 and a barb 230. The proximal end of the outer tube 210 is connected with the outer tube seat 3000. The inner tube 220 is partially arranged in the outer tube 210, and the proximal end of the inner tube 220 extends out of the outer tube 210 and is connected with the inner tube seat 4000. One end of the barb 230 is connected to the outer surface of the distal end of the inner tube 220, and the other end is a third free end which is directed towards the distal end of the inner tube 220. The catheter mechanism 200 is used to load a medical implant, and the medical implant is provided with a plurality of apertures which are arranged along the axial direction of the medical implant. When the medical implant is at least partially located between the inner tube 220 and the outer tube 210, the barb 230 is used to selectively insert into some of the apertures. Optionally, the medical implant comprises a self-expandable medical stent 20. It can be understood that the self-expandable medical stent 20 refers to the medical stent which is made of a material with high elasticity, such as nickel-titanium alloy, and can be formed by wire knitting. The medical stent 20 is taken as an example for description herein.

[0079] The delivery device 10 is used to deliver the medical stent 20 to a predetermined position of a target lumen in the body of a patient for release. The process of release can comprise the following steps:

[0080] Step S1: disconnect the outer tube seat 3000 from the guide rail 1100, and drive the inner tube seat 4000 to move in the proximal-to-distal direction by the driving part 5000, so as to drive the inner tube 220 to move in the proximal-to-distal direction, and drive the medical stent 20 to move in the proximal-to-distal direction as a whole under the action of the barb 230. At the same time, the transmission part 2000 also transmits power between the inner tube seat 4000 and the outer tube seat 3000, so as to drive the outer tube seat 3000 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction, and then drive the outer tube 210 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction.

[0081] When the barb 230 extends out of the outer tube 210 and causes the barb 230 to separate from the medical stent 20, step S2 is performed: connect the outer tube seat 3000 with the guide rail 1100, and then drive the inner tube seat 4000 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction by the driving part 5000, so as to drive the inner tube 220 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction, so that the barb 230 returns to the outer tube 210 and passes through another part of the apertures of the medical stent 20.

[0082] Afterwards, step S1 and step S2 are repeatedly performed until the medical stent 20 is completely released.

[0083] Such a releasing process can compensate the axial shortening of the medical stent 20 caused by radial expansion during the retracting process of the outer tube 210 (i.e. the movement of the outer tube 210 in the direction from distal end to proximal end), improve the positioning accuracy when the medical stent 20 is released, and thus improve the treatment effect. The reciprocating axial movement of the inner tube 220 can utilize the barbs 230 to pull the medical stent 20 in the distal end direction section by section, so that the medical stent 20 is in a tensioned state during the releasing process, reduces the releasing resistance, and improves the releasing fluency of the medical stent 20.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the guide rail 1100 is provided with a plurality of first limiting portions 1110 arranged at intervals in the axial direction. The transmission seat 1200 comprises a second limiting portion 1210, the second limiting portion 1210 is selectively connected with one of the first limiting portions 1110, and the second limiting portion 1210 is used for one-way limiting of the transmission seat 1200, so that the transmission seat 1200 can move in the direction from distal end to proximal end on the guide rail 1100, but cannot move in the direction from proximal end to distal end. The outer tube seat 3000 comprises a third limiting portion 3100, when the third limiting portion 3100 is selectively connected with one of the first limiting portions 1110, the outer tube seat 3000 is connected with the guide rail 1100, and at least prevents the outer tube seat 3000 from moving in the direction from distal end to proximal end relative to the guide rail 1100, when the third limiting portion 3100 is disconnected with the first limiting portion 1110, the outer tube seat 3000 is disconnected with the guide rail 1100, so as to allow the outer tube seat 3000 to move relative to the guide rail 1100.

[0085] Next, the components of the handle 100 and the assembly relationship are further described herein. Those skilled in the art can understand that the following is only an introduction to one optional structure of the handle 100, but this is not the only structure, and should not constitute undue limitation on the present application.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 4The guide rails 1100 extend along the axial direction of the handle 100. The number of the guide rails 1100 can be two. Each of the guide rails 1100 can be a circular-arc-shaped sheet structure. The concave surfaces of the two guide rails 1100 are arranged towards the axis of the handle 100 (i.e., the concave surfaces of the two guide rails 1100 are oppositely arranged). Further, the base 1000 further comprises a holding portion 1300 and an end cover 1400. The holding portion 1300 and the end cover 1400 are respectively connected to the axial two ends of the guide rails 1100. For example, in the embodiment, the holding portion 1300 is connected to the distal end of the guide rails 1100, and the end cover 1400 is connected to the proximal end of the guide rails 1100. By arranging the holding portion 1300 and the end cover 1400, the two guide rails 1100 can be kept relatively static, and the holding portion 1300 can also be held by the user when the delivery device 10 is used. In addition, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first limiting portion 1110 can be a limiting groove, for example, in a rectangular shape.

[0087] As shown in Figure 6 to Figure 8 The transmission seat 1200 further comprises a first seat body 1220. The first seat body 1220 can be a hollow cylindrical structure, i.e., the first seat body 1220 has a first inner cavity 1221 extending through the axial direction. The guide rails 1100 pass through the first inner cavity 1221, and the outer surface of each of the guide rails 1100 abuts against the cavity wall of the first inner cavity 1221. The "outer surface of the guide rail 1100" refers to the surface of the guide rail 1100 away from the axis of the handle 100, i.e., the convex surface of each of the guide rails 1100. The second limiting portion 1210 is connected to the first seat body 1220. The number of the second limiting portion 1210 is two. The two second limiting portions 1210 are equidistantly arranged in the circumferential direction of the first seat body 1220, so that each of the second limiting portions 1210 is used to connect to the first limiting portion 1110 on one of the guide rails 1100. The purpose of such an arrangement is to improve the force stability of the transmission seat 1200 when moving along the guide rails 1100, so that it moves more smoothly.

[0088] Optionally, please refer to Figure 8The second limiting part 1210 comprises a first clasp. The first clasp comprises a first clasp head 1211 selectively inserted into one of the limiting grooves (i.e. the first limiting part 1110). In the embodiment, the first clasp head 1211 is a one-way limiting mechanism. In detail, the first clasp further preferably comprises a connecting part, which can be referred to as a first connecting part 1212, connected to the first seat body 1220. The first clasp head 1211 comprises a straight plane 1211a perpendicular to the axis of the handle 100 and a first inclined plane 1211b located at the proximal end side of the straight plane 1212a, and the distance of the first inclined plane 1211b to the straight plane 1211a gradually increases in the direction away from the axis of the handle 100.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 6 The first seat body 1220 is further provided with a first through groove 1222, a second through groove 1223 and a third through groove 1224, which respectively communicate with the first inner cavity 1221. The first through groove 1222 is used to provide space for the connection of the transmission part 2000 and the outer tube seat 3000, the second through groove 1223 is used to provide space for the connection of the transmission part 2000 and the inner tube seat 4000, and the third through groove 1224 is used to provide space for the connection of the third limiting part 3100 and the first limiting part 1110.

[0090] Further, please continue to refer to Figure 6 The transmission seat 1200 further comprises a mounting plate 1230 arranged on the cavity wall of the first inner cavity 1221 and dividing the first inner cavity 1221 into two sub-inner cavities through in the axial direction, and each of the sub-inner cavities is for one of the guide rails 1100 to pass through.

[0091] The transmission part 2000 is partially arranged on the mounting plate 1230. Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10The transmission part 2000 comprises a center shaft 2100, a gear unit 2200, a first rack 2300 and a second rack 2400. The center shaft 2100 is arranged on the mounting plate 1230, the gear unit 2200 is sleeved on the center shaft 2100 and can rotate around the center shaft 2100. The first rack 2300 and the second rack 2400 are arranged on opposite sides of the gear unit 2200 respectively, and the first rack 2300 and the second rack 2400 are engaged with the gear unit 2200. The first rack 2300 is further connected with the outer tube seat 3000, and the second rack 2400 is further connected with the inner tube seat 4000.

[0092] Preferably, the gear unit 2200 comprises a first gear 2210 and a second gear 2220, which are configured to remain circumferentially opposite static to make the first gear 2210 and the second gear 2220 rotate synchronously. The first gear 2210 is engaged with the second rack 2400, and the second gear 2220 is engaged with the first rack 2300. By engaging two gears with two racks respectively, the gear ratio of the transmission part 2000 can be adjusted by replacing the gears according to actual conditions, thereby adjusting the ratio of the distance that the inner tube seat 4000 drives the inner tube 220 to move from the proximal end to the distal end and the distance that the outer tube seat 3000 drives the outer tube 210 to move from the distal end to the proximal end, thereby adapting to different medical stents 20. For example, when the ratio of the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the compressed state to the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the natural state is 2:1, the gear ratio of the transmission part 2000 is preferably 1:1, so that the diameters of the pitch circles of the first gear 2210 and the second gear 2220 are 1:1, and when the ratio of the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the compressed state to the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the natural state is 3:1, the gear ratio of the transmission part 2000 is preferably 2:1, i.e. the ratio of the diameters of the pitch circles of the first gear 2210 and the second gear 2220 is 2:1. In addition, it can be understood that for the case where the ratio of the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the compressed state to the axial length of the medical stent 20 in the natural state is 2:1, the gear unit can also only comprise one gear, and this gear is engaged with the first rack and the second rack at the same time (not shown in the figure).

[0093] In addition, the first gear 2210 and the second gear 2220 can be kept circumferentially relatively static in various manners, for example, the gear unit 2200 further comprises a circumferential limiting member 2230, the circumferential limiting member 2230 is in the shape of a cross, and the center of the circumferential limiting member 2230 has a circular first mounting through hole, the circumferential limiting member 2230 is sleeved on the central shaft 2100 through the first mounting through hole. The center of the first gear 2210 is formed as a second mounting through hole in the shape of a cross, the first gear 2210 is sleeved on the circumferential limiting member 2230 through the second mounting through hole, and the center of the second gear 2220 is formed as a third mounting through hole in the shape of a cross, the first gear 2220 is sleeved on the circumferential limiting member 2230 through the third mounting through hole.

[0094] Please refer to Figure 11 to Figure 14 , the outer tube seat 3000 further comprises a second seat body 3200, the second seat body 3200 can also be a hollow cylindrical structure, which has an axially through second inner cavity 3201, the second seat body 3200 is sleeved on the first seat body 1220 of the transmission seat 1200 through the second inner cavity 3201, and the second seat body 3200 is connected with the first rack 2300 of the transmission part 2000 at the first through slot 1222. Specifically, please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 , and combine Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 17 and Figure 19 , the inner wall of the second seat body 3200 is provided with a mounting block 3210, the mounting block 3210 is provided correspondingly with the first through slot 1222, and the mounting block 3210 is provided with a clamping groove 3211. The first rack 2300 has opposite first and second surfaces, the first surface is provided with teeth engaged with the gear unit 2200, and the second surface is provided with a protruding block (not shown in the figure), the protruding block is inserted into the clamping groove 3211.

[0095] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 13 and Figure 14The third limiting part 3100 is connected to the second seat body 3200. Optionally, the third limiting part 3100 comprises a second buckle 3110, which comprises a second clamping head 3111. When the second clamping head 3111 is selectively inserted into one of the limiting grooves, the outer tube seat 3000 is connected to the guide rail 1100. When the second clamping head 3111 is separated from the limiting groove, the outer tube seat 3000 is disconnected from the guide rail 1100. In this embodiment, the second clamping head 3111 can be a one-way limiting mechanism or a two-way limiting mechanism. When the second clamping head 3111 is a one-way limiting mechanism, if the second clamping head 3111 is selectively inserted into one of the limiting grooves, it only prevents the outer tube seat 3000 from moving from the distal end to the proximal end relative to the guide rail 1100. When the second clamping head 3111 is a two-way limiting mechanism, if the second clamping head 3111 is selectively inserted into one of the limiting grooves, it prevents the outer tube seat 3000 from moving from the distal end to the proximal end and from the proximal end to the distal end relative to the guide rail 1100.

[0096] Please refer to Figs. 13 and Figure 14 The second seat body 3200 is provided with a mounting groove 3202 in communication with the second inner cavity 3201. The mounting groove 3202 is in communication with the third through groove 1224, so that the mounting groove 3202 is in communication with the first inner cavity 1221. The number of mounting grooves 3202 is two, and each mounting groove 3202 is used to mount one third limiting part 3100.

[0097] Please refer to Figure 13 The second buckle 3110 further comprises a connecting part, which can be referred to as a second connecting part 3112. The second connecting part 3112 is rotatably connected to the mounting groove 3202 through a pin shaft 3120, and the second connecting part 3112 has a first free end 3112a and a second free end 3112b opposite in the axial direction. The first free end 3112a is provided with the second clamping head 3111 on the inner surface (i.e., the surface close to the axis of the handle 100). Figure 14 The third limiting part 3100 further comprises a first elastic member 3130. One end of the first elastic member 3130 is connected to the second seat body 3200, and the other end is connected to the second free end 3112b of the second connecting part 3112, so that the second free end 3112b of the second connecting part 3112 protrudes radially from the mounting groove 3202, and the second clamping head 3111 is inserted into one of the limiting grooves.

[0098] Optionally, the first elastic member 3130 is in a straight configuration in a natural state, and when one end of the first elastic member 3130 is connected to the second seat body 3200 and the other end of the first elastic member 3130 has not yet connected to the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112, the other end of the first elastic member 3130 extends along a tangent direction of the second seat body 3200. In this way, when the other end of the first elastic member 3130 is connected to the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112, the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 can be made to be raised and protrude from the mounting groove 3202, and at the same time, the first elastic member 3130 is also bent under the action of the second connecting portion 3112. The first elastic member 3130 can be a spring, or a wire-like structure or a sheet-like structure with elasticity, and the present embodiment is not particularly limited in this regard.

[0099] When the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 is subjected to a radial force directed towards the axis direction of the handle 100 (i.e. from outside to inside), so that the second connecting portion 3112 rotates around the pin shaft 3120, and the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 moves in a direction close to the axis of the handle 100, the degree of protrusion of the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 from the mounting groove 3202 decreases. Under the action of the lever principle, the first free end 3112a of the second connecting portion 3112 moves in a direction away from the axis of the handle 100 with the rotation of the second connecting portion 3112, and further drives the second clamping head 3111 to disengage from the limiting groove, so as to release the connection between the outer tube seat 3000 and the guide rail 1100. At the same time, the first elastic member 3130 stores elastic potential energy. When the radial force is cancelled, the first elastic member 3130 releases the elastic potential energy and drives the second connecting portion 3112 to rotate in the opposite direction around the pin shaft 3120, so that the second free end 3112b moves in a direction away from the axis of the handle 100 to the initial position, and at the same time, the first free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 moves in a direction close to the axis of the handle 100, so as to make the second clamping head 3111 re-engage in one of the limiting grooves.

[0100] In the present embodiment, the radial force can be provided by the inner tube seat 4000, which will be described in detail later.

[0101] Further, the second seat body 3200 is provided with a fourth through slot 3203 in communication with the second inner cavity 3201, the fourth through slot 3203 being in communication with the second through slot 1223 to serve as a connecting channel of the inner tube seat 4000 and the second rack 2400 of the transmission part 2000. In addition, the outer tube seat 3000 is provided with an outer tube connecting piece 3300 connected to the second seat body 3200 and used for connecting with the outer tube 210.

[0102] Please refer to Figure 16 The inner tube seat 4000 comprises a third seat body 4100 having an axially through third inner cavity 4101 and sleeved on at least part of the outer surface of the second seat body 3200 of the outer tube seat 3000, and the third seat body 4100 also covers at least part of the outer surface of the first seat body 1220. The second rack 2400 of the transmission part 2000 can partially pass through the second through slot 1223 and the fourth through slot 3203 and be connected with the third seat body 4100. Optionally, the third seat body 4100 is further provided with an inner tube connecting piece 4200 used for connecting with the inner tube 220.

[0103] The third seat body 4100 is provided with a fifth through slot 4102 in communication with the third inner cavity 4101, the fifth through slot 4102 being in communication with the mounting slot 3202. When the second clamping head 3111 is inserted into one of the limiting slots, the second free end 3112b of the second connecting part 3112 also protrudes radially from the fifth through slot 4102. It can be understood that the number of the fifth through slots 4102 is two, and each of the fifth through slots 4102 is in communication with one of the mounting slots 3202.

[0104] Please refer to Figure 16 The fifth through slot 4102 has a first side 4102a and a second side 4102b opposite in the circumferential direction of the base 1000. Please refer to Figure 18 in combination with Figure 19 and Figure 20The inner tube seat 4000 further comprises the pressing plate 4300, which is configured to provide the radial force to the second free end 3112b of the second buckle 3110. Specifically, the pressing plate 4300 is arranged at the first side 4102a of the fifth through slot 4102. The inner tube seat 4000 further comprises a second elastic member 4400, one end of which is connected with the pressing plate 4300, and the other end of which spans the fifth through slot 4102 and is connected with the third seat body 4100. The pressing plate 4300 is configured to move in the direction from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b, so that the pressing plate 4300 is pressed against at least part of the outer surface of the second connecting portion 3112 and exerts the radial force on the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112, and the second elastic member 4400 stores elastic potential energy. When the second elastic member 4400 releases the elastic potential energy, the pressing plate 4300 can be driven by the elastic potential energy released by the second elastic member 4400 to move in the direction from the second side 4102b to the first side 4102a, and stop exerting the radial force on the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112. The second elastic member 4400 can be a spring or a spring sheet, and the number thereof can be two.

[0105] Please continue to refer to Figure 18 to Figure 20 The outer surface of the pressing plate 4300 (i.e. the surface of the pressing plate 4300 away from the axis of the handle 100) is provided with a linear guide groove 4301, and the extension direction of the guide groove 4301 is perpendicular to the axis of the handle 100. The inner tube seat 4000 further comprises a guide mechanism 4500, one end of which is located at the second side 4102b of the second through slot 4102 and connected with the third seat body 4100. The other end of the guide mechanism 4500 extends in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the handle 100 and spans the fifth through slot 4102. The guide mechanism 4500 is partially accommodated in the guide groove 4301. In this way, the pressing plate 4300 can move linearly in the direction from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b or in the direction from the second side 4102b to the first side 4102a under the cooperation of the guide groove 4301 and the guide mechanism 4500, and the pressing plate 4300 and the third seat body 4100 remain axially stationary relative to each other.

[0106] Preferably, please refer to Figure 15 At least part of the outer surface of the second connecting portion 3112 (i.e. the surface of the second connecting portion 3112 away from the axis of the handle 100) is a second inclined surface 3112c. Please refer to Figure 20, the edge of the second inclined surface 3112c close to the first side 4102a of the fifth through slot 4102 is flush with the outer surface of the third seat body 4100, or is located inside the fifth through slot 4102. The edge of the second inclined surface 3112c close to the second side 4102b of the fifth through slot 4102 protrudes radially from the fifth through slot 4102. In this way, the pressing plate 4300 can be smoothly pressed against the outer surface of the second connecting portion 3112 and the radial force can be applied to the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 when the pressing plate 4300 moves in the direction from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b.

[0107] Further, the driving portion 5000 is arranged on the third seat body 4100, which is configured to not only drive the inner tube seat 4000 to move axially relative to the guide rail 1100, but also drive the pressing plate 4300 to move in the direction from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b.

[0108] In detail, the third seat body 4100 comprises a first segment 4110 and a second segment 4120 connected axially, the first segment 4110 and the second segment 4120 are arranged in the direction from the distal end to the proximal end, and the outer diameter of the first segment 4110 is greater than that of the second segment 4120. A limiting portion 4103 is further arranged on the proximal end outer surface of the second segment 4120. The first segment 4110 is partially sleeved on the second seat body 3200, and the second segment 4120 is partially sleeved on the first seat body 1220.

[0109] Further, a third inclined surface 4302 is formed on the side of the pressing plate 4300 away from the fifth through slot 4102, and the distance from the third inclined surface 4302 to the fifth through slot 4102 gradually increases in the direction from the proximal end to the distal end.

[0110] Please refer to Figure 21 The driving portion 5000 comprises an operating mechanism 5100 and a third elastic member 5200. The operating mechanism 5100 can be a hollow cylindrical structure, and is sleeved on the third seat body 4100 of the inner tube seat 4000. The operating mechanism 5100 is configured to keep circumferential relative static with the third seat body 4100, and can move axially relative to the inner tube seat 4000. In an optional implementation, a limiting groove (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the inner surface of the operating mechanism 5100, and a limiting convex edge 4104 extending in the axial direction is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the third seat body 4100 (as shown in FIG. 6). When the operating mechanism 5100 moves axially relative to the third seat body 4100, the limiting groove on the inner surface of the operating mechanism 5100 is matched with the limiting convex edge 4104 on the outer circumferential surface of the third seat body 4100, so that the operating mechanism 5100 and the third seat body 4100 keep circumferential relative static. Figure 16 and Figure 17), the limiting protrusion 4103 is inserted into the limiting groove, so that the operating mechanism 5100 and the third seat 4100 remain relatively stationary in the circumferential direction. Figure 21 A fourth inclined surface 5101 is formed on the inner surface of the operating mechanism 5100. The fourth inclined surface 5101 is inclined in the same direction as the third inclined surface 4302 and is configured to mate with the third inclined surface 4302. Furthermore, a retaining ring 5110 is formed on the operating mechanism 5100. The third elastic member 5200 is sleeved on the second segment 4120 of the third base 4100, and the proximal end of the third elastic member 5200 and the limiting portion 4103 jointly clamp the retaining ring 5110.

[0111] In addition, preferably, Figure 21 As shown, the operating mechanism 5100 is an assembled structure to facilitate assembly.

[0112] The following combination Figure 1 and Figure 10 The force and movement of the various components of the handle 100 during the execution of the aforementioned steps S1 and S2 are described. It can be understood that in the initial state, the second clamping head 3111 of the second buckle 3110 is inserted into one of the limiting grooves, thereby connecting the outer tube base 3000 to the guide rail 1100.

[0113] During step S1, the user applies a first external force directed from the proximal end to the distal end to the operating mechanism 5100, causing the operating mechanism 5100 to move in a proximal-to-distal direction on the third base 4100. Simultaneously, because the fourth inclined surface 5101 of the operating mechanism 5100 at least partially abuts the third inclined surface 4302 of the pressing plate 4300, the operating mechanism 5100 applies a force directed from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b to the pressing plate 4300, forcing the pressing plate 4300 to move in a direction from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b. Furthermore, the operating mechanism 5100 applies a radial force from the outside to the inside to the second free end 3112b of the second connecting portion 3112 of the second buckle 3110, causing the second clamping head 3111 to disengage from the limiting groove. This releases the outer tube base 3000 from the guide rail 1100, and the second elastic member 4400 stores elastic potential energy. During this process, the retaining ring 5110 moves away from the limiting portion 4103 and presses against the third elastic member 5200 , so that the third elastic member 5200 stores elastic potential energy.

[0114] Afterwards, the user continues to apply the first external force to the operating mechanism 5100. At this time, the operating mechanism 5100 continuously applies the force from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b to the third inclined surface 4302, so that the second elastic member 4400 keeps the elastic potential energy, and the retaining ring 5110 continuously presses against the third elastic member 5200, so that the third elastic member 5200 keeps the elastic potential energy. At the same time, the operating mechanism 5100 drives the entire inner tube seat 4000 to move in the proximal-to-distal direction, and the inner tube seat 4000 drives the second rack 2400 to move in the proximal-to-distal direction. And, since the second limiting portion 1210 unidirectionally limits the transmission seat 1200, the transmission seat 1200 cannot move in the proximal-to-distal direction, so the transmission seat 1200 keeps relatively static with the guide rail 1100, which makes the second rack 2400 apply a force to the first gear 2210 in the proximal-to-distal direction, and drives the first gear 2210 to rotate in the clockwise direction, thereby driving the second gear 2220 to rotate synchronously. Thus, the second gear 2220 applies a force to the first rack 2300 in the distal-to-proximal direction, and drives the first rack 2300 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction, and drives the outer tube seat 3000 to move in the distal-to-proximal direction.

[0115] When performing the step S2, first cancel the first external force, then the third elastic member 5200 releases the elastic potential energy, and drives the operating mechanism 5100 to move uniformly in the distal-to-proximal direction. In this process, the operating mechanism 5100 no longer applies the force from the first side 4102a to the second side 4102b to the third inclined surface 4302, so that the second elastic member 4400 releases the elastic potential energy to drive the pressing plate 4300 to move in the direction from the second side 4102b to the first side 4102a, and the second clamping head 3111 of the second clamping buckle 3110 reinserts into a limiting groove, so that the outer tube seat 3000 is connected with the guide rail 1100.

[0116] Then, a second external force is applied to the operation mechanism 5100 in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, so that the operation mechanism 5100 moves in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, and the blocking ring 5110 applies a force in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end to the limiting portion 4103 by compressing the third elastic member 5200, so as to drive the inner tube seat 4000 to move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, and the inner tube seat 4000 drives the second rack 2400 to move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, while the second rack 2400 is subjected to a friction force in a direction from the proximal end to the distal end. Correspondingly, the first gear 2210 is subjected to a friction force in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, and since the first gear 2210 rotates synchronously with the second gear 2220, the second gear 2220 is also subjected to a friction force in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end. Since the transmission seat 1200 can move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, the gear unit 2200 also drives the transmission seat 1200 to move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end. In this process, due to the meshing of the second gear 2220 and the first rack 2300, the first rack 2300 is subjected to a friction force in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end and tends to move from the distal end to the proximal end, but since the outer tube seat 3000 is connected with the guide rail 1100, the outer tube seat 3000 cannot move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end, so that the first rack 2300 cannot move in a direction from the distal end to the proximal end and remains relatively static with the guide rail 1100.

[0117] Further, as shown in Figure 2 the present application provides the delivery device 10 as described above. In addition, the delivery device 10 further comprises a guide head 300 arranged at the distal end of the inner tube 220.

[0118] Further, the present application also provides a medical system, which comprises the delivery device 10 as described above and a medical implant, wherein the medical implant is provided with a plurality of apertures, at least part of the apertures are arranged along the axial direction of the medical implant; the catheter mechanism 200 is used for loading the medical implant, and the barb 230 is used for selectively inserting into part of the apertures. The medical implant is preferably a self-expandable medical stent 20.

Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and equivalent technologies thereof, the present application is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
