Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a stapler, in particular to a continuous force-applying stapler with adjustable clamping thickness and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Traditional suturing surgery requires manual suturing, which is a complicated process and may cause some complications after surgery. With the development of modern science and technology and the improvement of technology, the staplers used in clinical practice are easy to use, fast to suturing and rarely cause surgical complications. These advantages also make it possible to remove tumors that were previously inoperable. With the deepening of globalization, staplers are being used by more and more medical staff as an efficient and accurate tissue processing tool.

[0003] At present, many efforts have been made to improve the stapler, with remarkable results. Various structural schemes have been designed and national patents have been approved, such as "Disposable stapler with automatic safety device" (CN100518669C), "Disposable arc-shaped cutting stapler" (CN201179083Y), "A disposable stapler" (CN219516414U), etc., which have different innovations on the handle; the limited position structure in "Disposable stapler with anti-secondary firing mechanism" (CN102772234B) can prevent the stapler from being re-fired. Although the existing technology is helpful to medical workers in different working environments to a certain extent, as a common surgical instrument for vascular surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, etc., and one of the necessary surgical instruments for specific surgeries, it still has shortcomings and needs to be further improved.

[0004] For example, during a stapler operation, medical staff first need to clamp the human tissue to be sutured before pulling the movable handle, but they often encounter the problem of mismatch between tissue thickness and clamping spacing, which may cause adverse effects on the anastomosis effect due to clamping too tightly or too loosely. The clamping spacing of the currently popular linear stapler cannot be adjusted, so it cannot accurately adapt to the clamping tightness required for different clamping thicknesses of different human tissues.

[0005] In addition, "A linear stapler with a safety mechanism (CN113367752A)" mentions that the stapler needs to wait for a period of time after firing. During this period, the medical staff needs to keep pressing the movable handle with appropriate force, which makes it inconvenient to use other surgical instruments such as needle holders, forceps, needles and threads, resulting in a time-consuming and laborious surgical process, a long surgical operation time, and a difficult to ensure surgical effect, which will also increase the technical level and experience required for doctors to operate instruments.

[0006] How to design a new type of stapler to accurately clamp tissues of different thicknesses, reduce the difficulty of operation, and eliminate the time-consuming and laborious problem of doctors relying on experience and feel to continuously press the handle to maintain the clamping state for tissues of different thicknesses, thereby shortening the operation time, improving operation efficiency, reducing operation risks and reducing the occurrence of postoperative complications, and ultimately improving the operation effect and patient treatment effect has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0048] The second aspect of the present invention discloses a method for using a continuous force-applying stapler with adjustable clamping thickness as described above, comprising the following steps:

[0049] When the stapler is not activated, there is an angle between the driven hinge connecting rod and the active hinge crank, the nail pushing piece connecting rod is located below the nail pushing piece, and the nail pushing piece connecting rod cannot push the nail pushing piece;

[0050] The clamping distance between the staple cartridge and the staple frame is pre-adjusted by turning the dial, and the movable handle is repeatedly pulled to push the active hinge crank through the ratchet, so that the driven hinge connecting rod and the active hinge crank are located on the same straight line, and the ratchet is locked with the help of the claw.

[0054] The working principle of the present invention is:

[0055] By turning the dial, the gear set can drive the threaded screw to rotate, and then the shrinking shaft end in front of the partition will move relative to the expanding hole end behind the partition, so as to achieve fine adjustment of the clamping distance between the nail magazine (connected to the shrinking shaft end in front of the partition) and the nail support frame (the nail support frame does not move);

[0056] In the process of repeatedly pulling the movable handle, each time the movable handle is pulled, the claw will rotate to a certain extent under the drive of the movable handle (claw reset torsion spring) to release the lock between it and the ratchet. At this time, the connecting rod (driven by the movable handle (connecting rod reset torsion spring)) will push the ratchet to rotate, and the claw will be stuck in the ratchet teeth of the ratchet, making the ratchet unable to reverse while not affecting the forward rotation of the ratchet (achieved by the one-way setting of the ratchet teeth); and when the movable handle is released and pulled to its initial position, the claw will quickly reset and disengage from the ratchet under the drive of the claw reset torsion spring, so that the ratchet is quickly reset.

[0057] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0058] The present invention adopts a thickness adjustment component to change the clamping position between the stapler magazine and the stapler frame, thereby realizing the adjustment of the clamping thickness of the tissue to be sutured; at the same time, the ratchet and the claw in the continuous force-applying component can also achieve the purpose of saving effort, avoid continuous pressing, so as to reduce the hand force strength of medical staff when using the stapler, realize slow staple pushing and clamping, and avoid the damage to the required sutured skin tissue caused by rapid force. The present invention can not only meet the requirements of patients for different tissues on suture thickness, but also reduce the hand force strength of medical staff and prevent hand fatigue.

The front end surface of the stapler magazine 2 is arranged opposite to the front end of the staple anvil frame 1, and the gap between the two is the position for clamping the tissue to be sutured.

[0126] See also Figure 1-5 Before suturing begins, the left positioning knob 103 or the right positioning knob 104 can be pushed forward to drive the push rod 101 to move forward, so that the front end of the push rod 101 can be inserted into the nail magazine 2 to drive the positioning needle 201 to extend out of the nail magazine 2, and finally achieve the positioning of the tissue to be sutured. Then operate the thickness adjustment component 5 to pre-adjust the clamping thickness, and then operate the continuous force component 9 to suture the tissue to be sutured. After suturing is completed, the left positioning knob 103 or the right positioning knob 104 is pushed backward. At this time, the positioning needle 201 is driven to move backward under the restoring force of the positioning needle reset spring 202, and finally withdraws from the sutured tissue and retreats into the nail magazine 2.

[0127] See also Figure 1 , Figure 7 , 9, 10, the thickness adjustment assembly 5 is composed of a dial 508, a large gear 507, a connecting shaft 506, a small gear 505, a threaded screw 502, an expanded hole end 503 at the rear of the partition, a reduced shaft end 501 at the front of the partition and a retaining spring 504, an active hinge crank 509, and a driven hinge connecting rod 510. Among them, the large gear 507 and the dial 508 are concentrically connected to the connecting shaft 506, and both are key-connected to the connecting shaft 506. The rear part (smooth section) of the threaded screw 502 is concentrically connected to the small gear 505. Further, the small gear 505 and the large gear 507 are also meshed with each other to realize transmission, and then the threaded screw 502 can be driven to rotate by turning the dial 508; the threaded screw 502 is rotatably connected to the expanded hole end 503 behind the partition in the middle part (smooth section), and the front part (threaded section, with threads) of the threaded screw 502 is threadedly connected to the reduced shaft end 501 in front of the partition; on the threaded screw 502, against the outer wall surface of the expanded hole end 503 behind the partition, a retaining spring 504 is also provided to limit the axial movement of the threaded screw 502 relative to the expanded hole end 503 behind the partition; the end of the reduced shaft end 501 in front of the partition A semicircular groove is provided, which can be assembled and connected with a nail magazine 2; the front retracted shaft end 501 of the partition and the rear reamed end 503 of the partition are on the same straight line, and the rear reamed end 503 of the partition is open to one side of the front retracted shaft end 501 of the partition, forming a cavity that can accommodate the front retracted shaft end 501 of the partition, and the relative distance between the front retracted shaft end 501 of the partition and the rear reamed end 503 of the partition can be adjusted by turning the dial 508 to drive the rotation of the threaded screw 502, thereby realizing fine adjustment of the distance between the nail magazine 2 and the nail support frame 1; the rear end of the rear reamed end 503 of the partition is also rotatably connected to the driven hinge connecting rod 510, and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 is further rotatably connected to the active hinge crank 509, and the active hinge crank 509 is further rotatably connected to the nail support frame 1 through the rear shaft 5091 of the active hinge crank. At the position of the nail pushing piece 4, multiple layers are symmetrically stacked in sequence from the inside to the outside, specifically: the nail pushing piece 4 is in the center, and outward are the push rod 101, the expanded hole end 503 at the rear of the partition / the retracted shaft end 501 at the front of the partition, and the nail support skeleton 1, wherein the nail pushing piece 4 and the push rod 101 extend into the interior of the nail magazine 2, respectively abutting the suture nail 3 and the positioning needle 201 (respectively used to push out the suture nail 3 and the positioning needle 201), the retracted shaft end 501 in front of the partition is integrally assembled and connected to the nail magazine 2 (used to push and pull the nail magazine 2 to fine-tune the distance between the nail magazine 2 and the nail support skeleton 1), and the nail support skeleton 1 extends to the front of the output face of the nail magazine 2 (used to cooperate with the nail magazine 2 to form a gap for clamping the tissue to be sutured).

[0128] Reference Figure 7 , Fig. 9, rotating the dial 508 can drive the large gear 507 to rotate, the large gear 507 rotates to drive the small gear 505 meshing with it to rotate, the small gear 505 drives the threaded screw 502 to rotate, and the front and rear movement of the contraction shaft end 501 of the partition can be realized, thereby slightly changing the front and rear position of the nail magazine 2, and finally changing the clamping thickness. The advantage of using the thickness adjustment component 5 is that the front and rear position of the contraction shaft end 501 of the partition can be adjusted by turning the dial 508, thereby changing the clamping thickness of the tissue.

[0129] In addition to adjusting the clamping distance by the thickness adjustment component 5 (usually as a pre-adjustment of the spacing), the clamping distance can also be adjusted (clamping adjustment during operation) by the transmission of the thickness adjustment component 5 (driven hinge connecting rod 510 and active hinge crank 509) by the continuous force component 9. The adjustment is specifically as follows: by moving the continuous force component 9 (the rear end of the ratchet 914 is upward (such as Fig.18 The active hinge crank 509 is rotated counterclockwise (the direction shown is counterclockwise), which resists and drives the active hinge crank 509 to rotate around the rear axis 5091 of the active hinge crank, thereby driving the driven hinge connecting rod 510 to move to the same straight line as the active hinge crank 509 (at this time, the distance is the longest after being fully straightened), thereby pushing the thickness adjustment component 5 to move forward as a whole, and finally driving the staple cartridge 2 to clamp the tissue to be sutured.

[0130] See also Figure 1 , Figure 11-14The continuous force component 9 includes a claw 909, a claw fixing rod 905, a claw reset torsion spring 907, a connecting rod 906, a connecting rod reset torsion spring 904, a movable handle 901, a ratchet 914, a connecting rod 910, a ratchet fixing piece 911, a connecting rod fixing piece 908, a ratchet connecting screw 912, a left ratchet compression spring 913, a right ratchet compression spring 903, and a ratchet connecting nut 902. The claw 909 is rotatably connected to the movable handle 901 through the claw fixing rod 905; the claw reset torsion spring 907 is sleeved on the claw fixing rod 905, and one end of it is installed on the movable handle 901, and the other end (movable end) is pressed against the claw 909; the connecting rod 906 is also rotatably connected to the movable handle 901 through the claw fixing rod 905, and the connecting rod reset torsion spring 904 is also sleeved on the claw fixing rod 905, and one end of it is installed on the movable handle 901, and the other end (movable end) is pressed against the connecting rod 906; one end of the connecting rod 910 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 906 through the connecting rod fixing piece 908, and the other end of the connecting rod 910 is rotatably connected to the ratchet 914 through the ratchet fixing piece 911; the ratchet 914 is provided with ratchet teeth, which mesh with the claw 909 when they abut against each other; the ratchet 914 can be rotated by the ratchet connecting screw 912 The rotating connection is installed on the nail support frame 1, and the end (free end) of the ratchet connecting screw 912 is threadedly connected to the ratchet connecting nut 902, and a left ratchet compression spring 913 is sleeved between the head end of the ratchet connecting screw 912 and the ratchet 914, and a right ratchet compression spring 903 is sleeved between the ratchet connecting nut 902 and the ratchet 914, so that the left ratchet compression spring 913 and the right ratchet compression spring 903 jointly compress the ratchet 914 inward (toward the center), thereby achieving lateral positioning of the ratchet 914; at the same time, the left ratchet compression spring 913 and the right ratchet compression spring 903 will synchronously undergo a slight deformation under the action of friction when the ratchet 914 rotates. Therefore, after releasing the ratchet 914, the left ratchet compression spring 913 and the right ratchet compression spring 903 can also assist the ratchet 914 to reset and rotate.

[0131] See also Fig.15 , Fig.16, pull the movable handle 901 backward to make it rotate counterclockwise around the claw fixing rod 905, thereby pushing the connecting rod 910 to move through the connecting rod 906, and then driving the ratchet 914 to rotate counterclockwise around the ratchet connecting screw 912 for a certain angle. At this time, the claw 909, under the action of the claw reset torsion spring 907, tightly presses against the ratchet teeth of the ratchet 914 to prevent the ratchet 914 from rotating in the opposite direction; pulling the movable handle 901 again can drive the ratchet 914 to continue to rotate counterclockwise by the same angle, and so on and so forth. Through multiple small pulling processes, the purpose of continuously driving the ratchet 914 to rotate counterclockwise continuously by repeatedly pulling the movable handle 901 is finally achieved, wherein the automatic anti-reversal structure design formed between the claw 909 and the ratchet 914 does not require the doctor to press continuously, and the pulling of the movable handle 901 can be temporarily stopped during this period and then continued. If the movable handle 901 is pulled forward to rotate clockwise, the claw reset torsion spring 907 is released and the claw 909 rotates until it no longer abuts against the ratchet teeth of the ratchet wheel 914, and the ratchet wheel 914 rotates back to the initial position.

[0132] The advantage of using the continuous force-applying component 9 is that repeatedly pulling the movable handle 901 intermittently drives the ratchet 914 to rotate, thereby providing continuous force for clamping the tissue to be sutured, and ultimately achieving a large clamping force using a small hand grip force (single) without the doctor having to continuously press the stapler.

[0133] See also Fig.16 One end of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 is movably connected to the ratchet 914, and the connection position between the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 and the ratchet 914 and the connection position between the connecting rod 910 and the ratchet 914 are on both sides of the connection position between the ratchet connecting screw 912 and the ratchet 914, and then when the ratchet 914 is pushed by the connecting rod 910 to rotate counterclockwise, the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 can push the nail pushing piece 4 forward; the other end (free end) of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 is set toward the nail pushing piece 4, and its position is different according to different states, specifically: in the unactivated state, the free end of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 is located below the nail pushing piece 4, and cannot push the nail pushing piece 4 forward; in the activated state, the free end of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 is against the notch at the rear end of the nail pushing piece 4, and then the nail pushing piece 4 can be pushed forward under the movement of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7. The nail pushing torsion spring 8 is sleeved on the connecting shaft for connecting the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 and the ratchet 914, and the nail pushing torsion spring 8 is located outside the ratchet 914, one end of which is connected to the ratchet 914, and the other end is pressed against the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7.

[0134] See also Fig.17The working principle of the nail pusher link 7 is as follows: when the state is not activated, the nail pusher 4 is at the initial position at the rear (at this time, there is an angle between the driven hinge link 510 and the active hinge crank 509, and it is not fully straightened). The nail pusher link 7 cannot resist the rear of the nail pusher 4, but can only be located below the nail pusher 4. At this time, even if the movable handle 901 is pulled, the nail pusher 4 cannot be pushed forward, and the nail pusher link 7 can only slide relative to the nail pusher 4 by friction. Fig.18 When the thickness adjustment component 5 (driven hinge connecting rod 510 and active hinge crank 509) enters the excited state, the nail pushing piece 4 is pushed to the front position by the fully extended driven hinge connecting rod 510 and the active hinge crank 509, and the movable handle 901 is pulled forward. The elastic force accumulated in the process of the nail pushing torsion spring 8 from the unexcited state to the excited state in the early stage will be released under the drive of the rotation of the ratchet 914, and then the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 will be pushed up under the action of the elastic force, and the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 will be pressed against the rear end recess of the nail pushing piece 4. The movable handle 901 is reciprocated again, and the counterclockwise rotation of the ratchet 914 will drive the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 to move and then drive the nail pushing piece 4 to move forward and press against the suture nail 3 in the nail magazine 2. Finally, the suture nail 3 pierces the clamped tissue to be sutured and sutures the tissue.

[0135] See also Figure 18-21 The reset assembly 11 includes a reset button 111, a reset rod 112, a reset spring 113, a left reset sheet 115, and a right reset sheet 114. The reset button 111 is movably connected to the rear of the nail support frame 1 through the rear shaft 5091 of the active hinge crank; the reset rod 112 is located below the reset button 111 and its rear end is against the lower wall of the reset button 111. The reset rod 112 is also movably connected to the inside of the shell 6. The reset rod 112 is a T-shaped structure, and its lower end is arranged toward (can be against) the active hinge crank 509 (close to the position where the active hinge crank 509 is connected to the driven hinge connecting rod 510), so that pressing down the reset button 111 can synchronously press down the reset rod 112 to make the active hinge crank 509 and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 connected. The hinge connecting rod 510 can be restored from a straight line state to a broken line state, that is, exit the excited state; the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114 are located on both sides of the reset pressure rod 112 (and the active hinge crank 509), and are respectively movably connected to the anvil frame 1 (a hemispherical groove is provided on the anvil frame 1, and the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114 are assembled in the hemispherical groove and can rotate), and a reset spring 113 is hung on the front of the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114, and the front end of the reset spring 113 is hooked on the rear position of the anvil frame 1.

[0136] The reset button 111 is pressed to push the reset rod 112 in contact with it downward, and then the reset rod 112 presses down the active hinge crank 509 and drives the driven hinge connecting rod 510, thereby pulling the other components of the thickness adjustment assembly 5 and driving the nail magazine 2 to move backward, and finally realizing the reset of the thickness adjustment assembly 5; at this time, the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114 are pressed down by the reset button 111 at the same time, and the reset spring 113 is stretched at the same time. Fig. 20 One end of the reset spring 113 is hooked on the nail support frame 1, and the other end is hooked on the left reset plate 115 / right reset plate 114. Therefore, after the reset assembly 11 completes the reset of the stapler and removes the downward pressure applied to the reset twist 111, under the action of the reset spring 113, the reset twist 111 rebounds and resets under the rebound drive of the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114.

[0137] See also Fig.23 , Fig.24 The front end of the housing 6 is provided with an elliptical opening 6003, which reserves space for the dial 508 to extend out of the housing 6; the rear of the housing 6 is a fixed handle 6001, which cooperates with the movable handle 901 to facilitate the doctor to hold the stapler and turn the movable handle 901; the rear end surface of the fixed handle 6001 (the contact surface with the hand when holding) is provided with anti-slip stripes 6002 to increase friction and improve the stability of hand operation. Fig.25 The dial 508 also has a digital scale mark 5081, which is convenient for pre-adjusting the thickness adjustment component 5 when clamping the tissue to be sutured. Fig.26 The front end surface of the movable handle 901 (the contact surface with the hand when holding) has an anti-slip leather texture 9011, which can increase friction and improve the stability of hand operation.

[0138] The specific method of using the stapler is as follows:

[0139] 1. Remove the nail magazine 2, turn the head of the nail magazine 2 upward (at this time, the surface with the suture nails 3 faces forward and is opposite to the front end of the nail support frame 1) and adjust the positions of the left and right positioning buttons. Then, clamp the two protruding cylindrical structures on the left and right outer walls of the nail magazine 2 in the semicircular grooves opened at the retracted shaft end 501 in front of the partition, and make the push rod 101 in the positioning assembly 10 and the front end of the nail push piece 4 inside it embed into the nail magazine 2 to complete the assembly of the nail magazine 2.

[0140] 2. Adjust the dial 508 above the housing 6 to pre-adjust the clamping thickness (the distance between the front end surface (output surface) of the nail magazine 2 and the nail support frame 1).

[0141] 3. Clamp the tissue to be sutured between the staple cartridge 2 and the staple support frame 1, repeatedly pull the movable handle 901 to fully extend the thickness adjustment component 4 to clamp the tissue to be sutured, push the positioning component 10 forward to extend the positioning needle 201 to position the tissue to be sutured, and the positioning component 10 simultaneously drives the staple pusher 4 forward, then pull the movable handle 901 back forward to make the staple pusher connecting rod 7 bounce up, until a "click" sound is heard, indicating that the stapler has entered the activated state.

[0142] 4. Press the movable handle 901 again and again, and under the common transmission of all components, the staple pusher 4 pushes the suture staple 3 out of the staple cartridge 2 and into the tissue to be sutured, and the suture staple 3 in the staple cartridge 2 pierces the human tissue and sutures the tissue.

[0143] 5. Press the reset button 111. Under the transmission of various components, the stapler automatically resets and retracts the positioning needle 201 and the stapler cartridge 2, releasing the tissue to be sutured.

[0144] 6. Remove the stapler and complete the operation.

[0145] During operation, the specific movements of each component are as follows:

[0146] First, when the stapler is not activated (the active hinge crank 509 and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 are broken lines), adjust the thickness adjustment component 5: according to the thickness of the tissue to be sutured and the digital scale mark 5081, turn the dial 508 to adjust the relative distance between the front end of the partition 501 and the rear end of the partition 503, so as to change the clamping distance between the front end surface of the staple cartridge 2 and the front end of the staple support frame 1;

[0147] Then, the stapler is adjusted from the unactivated state to the activated state (the active hinge crank 509 and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 are in a straight line): by repeatedly pulling the movable handle 901, the movable handle 901 rotates counterclockwise around the claw fixing rod 905 to push the connecting rod 906 upward and then push the connecting rod 910 upward, and the ratchet 914, under the push of the connecting rod 910, intermittently moves counterclockwise around the ratchet connecting screw 912, so that the rear end of the ratchet 914 pushes the active hinge crank 509 to rotate clockwise around the rear axis 5091 of the active hinge crank until the active hinge crank 509 and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 are in a straight line; at this time, the stapler enters the activated state, the staple cartridge 2 is pushed to the farthest end and clamps the tissue to be sutured together with the front end of the stapler frame 1;

[0148] Then, the positioning needle 201 is pushed out to position the tissue to be sutured: by pushing the left positioning push knob 103 and / or the right positioning push knob 104 forward, the push rod 101 is driven forward to push the positioning needle 201 out of the staple cartridge 2 and inserted into the tissue to be sutured for positioning, and at the same time, the staple pusher 4 moves forward following the push rod 101;

[0149] The suture nail 3 is then pushed out to sew the tissue to be sutured: by pulling the movable handle 901 forward (clockwise around the clamping claw fixing rod 905), the elastic force of the clamping claw reset torsion spring 907 and the linkage rod reset torsion spring 904 is released, and the pressure applied to the clamping claw 909 and the linkage rod 906 is removed to release the lock on the ratchet 914 so that the ratchet 914 can be quickly reset, and then, the nail pushing torsion spring 8 releases the elastic force to push the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 to bounce up, so that the free end of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 abuts against the rear end notch of the nail pushing piece 4; the movable handle 901 is repeatedly pulled forward (clockwise around the clamping claw fixing rod 905), the elastic force of the clamping claw reset torsion spring 907 and the linkage rod reset torsion spring 904 are released, and the pressure applied to the clamping claw 909 and the linkage rod 906 is removed to release the lock on the ratchet 914 so that the ratchet 914 can be quickly reset, and then, the nail pushing torsion spring 8 releases the elastic force to push the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 to bounce up, so that the free end of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 abuts against the rear end notch of the nail pushing piece 4 The movable handle 901 rotates counterclockwise around the claw fixing rod 905, and drives the ratchet 914 to rotate counterclockwise intermittently by pushing the connecting rod 906 and the upper top of the connecting rod 910. The front end of the ratchet 914 moves forward during the rotation, and at the same time drives the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 connected to the front end of the ratchet 914 to push forward, and then the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 pushes the nail pushing piece 4 forward from the rear end of the nail pushing piece 4, so that the nail pushing piece 4 pushes the suture nail 3 in the nail magazine 2 out from the front end surface, so as to achieve suturing on the tissue to be sutured;

[0150] Finally, the stapler is reset: the movable handle 901 is pulled forward (clockwise around the claw fixing rod 905) to reset the ratchet 914 and the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7. After the pressure of the nail pushing piece connecting rod 7 is lost, the nail pushing piece 4 is reset under the elastic force of the spring connected to the rear end of the nail pushing piece 4; then the left positioning push knob 103 and / or the right positioning push knob 104 are pulled back backward to release the pressure applied to the positioning needle 201. Under the elastic force of the positioning needle reset spring 202, the positioning needle 201 is retracted into the staple cartridge 2 and the positioning of the tissue to be sutured is released; then the reset knob 111 is pressed to press the reset pressure rod 112 and the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114, and the reset pressure rod 112 further presses down the active hinge crank 509 causes the active hinge crank 509 to rotate counterclockwise around the rear axis 5091 of the active hinge crank, and then the active hinge crank 509 pulls back the driven hinge connecting rod 510 to restore the active hinge crank 509 and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 to the folded line state, and the driven hinge connecting rod 510 further pulls back the thickness adjustment component 5 and the stapler 2, so that all components except the reset component 11 in the stapler are reset, and at the same time, the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114 are pressed down and the reset spring 113 is stretched; finally, the pressure applied to the reset twist 111 is released, and the reset spring 113 pulls back to push up the left reset plate 115 and the right reset plate 114 and prompt the reset pressure rod 112 and the reset twist 111 to reset, and now the stapler is completely reset.

[0151] In summary, the present invention adopts a thickness adjustment component 5 to change the tissue clamping thickness to meet the surgical requirements when suturing tissues of different thicknesses; and adopts a continuous force component 9 to reduce the hand force intensity of medical staff and the fatigue of long-term holding.
