Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a retracting mechanism and a cutting and suturing device. Background Art
[0002] The electric stapler is a combination of a DC motor, a circuit board and traditional mechanical components. It fully realizes all the action functions of the laparoscopic stapler under electric control. The operation method is simple, and its core advantage of reducing accidental tissue damage caused by human factors during the operation has been widely recognized in the clinic. In the electric stapler, the motor is the most important driving device, and it is inevitable that there will be failures, as well as failures in some other special circumstances, resulting in the problem that the jaws cannot open and disengage from the clamped tissue. When a doctor encounters a failure during use, the jaws may be clamping the tissue. At this time, it is necessary to drive the transmission member connected to the jaws of the stapler to retract, so that the forceps head drives the blade to retract, and the jaws open to release the tissue. However, most of the current electric staplers use an eccentric push rod to push the transmission member back, which makes the retraction efficiency low, affecting the rapidity and effectiveness of the forced retraction operation during surgery.

Figure 2 A partial exploded view of a retraction mechanism provided in one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 A partial top view of a retraction mechanism provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 1 . Figure 4 A partial top view of a retraction mechanism provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 2 An embodiment of the present invention provides a retraction mechanism, comprising a bracket 400, a transmission member 100, a driving assembly 200 and a retraction assembly 300; the transmission member 100 is slidably connected to the bracket 400, and the transmission member 100 comprises a plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and a plurality of second transmission teeth 120; the driving assembly 200 comprises a driven gear 240 and a motor 220, and the driven gear 240 has an engaged position and a disengaged position. When the driven gear 240 is in the engaged position, the driven gear 240 is connected to the plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and is in transmission connection with the motor 220; when the driven gear 240 is in the disengaged position, the driven gear 240 is connected to the plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and is in transmission connection with the motor 220; 10 is disengaged and is also disengaged from the motor 220; the retraction assembly 300 is transmission-connected to the driven gear 240, the retraction assembly 300 comprises a driving rod 310 and a driving gear 320, the driving rod 310 is rotatably connected to the bracket 400, and the driving gear 320 is transmission-connected to the driving rod 310; the driving gear 320 has a first position and a second position, and the driving gear 320 is operably controlled by the driving rod 310 to switch from the first position to the second position; when the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the driven gear 240 switches from the meshing position to the disengaged position, and the driving gear 320 is connected to a plurality of second transmission teeth 120.
[0049] Specifically, in the present application, the driving rod 310 is rotatably connected to the bracket 400, and the driving gear 320 is transmission-connected to the driving rod 310. The driving rod 310 can operably control the driving gear 320 to switch from the first position to the second position, so that the driven gear 240 switches from the meshing position to the disengaged position, that is, the driven gear 240 is disengaged from the plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and from the motor 220, so that the driven gear 240 is disconnected from the transmission member 100. At the same time, the driving gear 320 is connected to the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, so that the rotation of the driving gear 320 itself can be converted into the movement of the transmission member 100, so that the transmission member 100 retreats, that is, every time the driving gear 320 rotates one circle, the transmission member 100 can retreat the circumference of the driving gear 320, thereby greatly improving the retreat efficiency of the transmission member 100 and achieving efficient retreat.
[0050] When the driving gear 320 is in the first position and the driven gear 240 is in the meshing position (as shown in the attached manual), Figure 3 ), the driven gear 240 is connected to the motor 220 and meshes with the plurality of first transmission teeth 110. At the same time, there is a gap between the driving gear 320 and the transmission member 100. Therefore, when the driven gear 240 drives the transmission member 100 forward under the drive of the motor 220, the interference of the retraction component 300 on the transmission member 100 can be reduced, so that the driven gear 240 can stably drive the transmission member 100 forward, thereby improving the reliability of the retraction mechanism.
[0051] When the driving gear 320 is in the second position and the driven gear 240 is in the disengaged position, the driven gear 240 is disconnected from the plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and the motor 220. At the same time, the driving gear 320 is meshed with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120 on the transmission member 100. Thus, when the driving rod 310 drives the driving gear 320 to move the transmission member 100 back, the interference of the driving assembly 200 on the transmission member 100 can be reduced, so that the driving gear 320 can stably drive the transmission member 100 to move back, thereby improving the reliability of the retraction mechanism.
[0052] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, a first thread 311 is provided on the outer periphery of the driving rod 310, and the driving gear 320 is sleeved on the driving rod 310 and threadedly connected to the first thread 311; the driving rod 310 is configured to rotate around its own axis to drive the driving gear 320 to move, so that the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position.
[0053] Specifically, when the driving gear 320 is in the first position, there is a certain gap between the driving gear 320 and the transmission member 100. The driving gear 320 and the driving rod 310 are threadedly transmitted through the first thread 311, so that the driving gear 320 moves along the extension direction of the driving rod 310 under the drive of the driving rod 310, so that the driving gear 320 approaches the transmission member 100, so that the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, thereby making the driving gear 320 mesh with the multiple second transmission teeth 120 on the transmission member 100.
[0054] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the retraction assembly 300 also includes at least one guide rod 330, each guide rod 330 is parallel to the driving rod 310 and is arranged at intervals on the bracket 400, and each guide rod 330 cooperates with the driving gear 320 to limit the rotation of the driving gear 320 within a preset travel of the driving gear 320.
[0055] Specifically, at least one guide hole 321 is provided on the driving gear 320. When the driving gear 320 is located at the first position, each guide rod 330 can be inserted into the guide hole 321, thereby limiting the rotation of the driving gear 320. In the process of the driving rod 310 rotating relative to the bracket 400, the driving gear 320 does not rotate synchronously with the driving rod 310, so that the driving gear 320 stably approaches the transmission member 100 along the extension direction of the driving rod 310, thereby improving the stability of the retracting mechanism. The preset stroke refers to the distance that the driving gear 320 moves relative to the driving rod 310 when the driving gear 320 is located at the first position.
[0056] Furthermore, the guide rods 330 are arranged at intervals around the circumference of the driving gear 320, so as to provide a stable guiding force to the driving gear 320. Preferably, the number of the guide rods 330 is two.
[0057] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the extension direction of the guide rod 330 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the plurality of second transmission teeth 120. In the extension direction of the guide rod 330, there is a preset gap between the guide rod 330 and the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, and the preset gap is greater than or equal to the thickness of the driving gear 320.
[0058] Specifically, since the preset gap is greater than or equal to the thickness of the driving gear 320, in the extension direction of the guide rod 330, when the driving gear 320 is infinitely close to the second transmission teeth 120, the guide rod 330 can release the restriction on the rotation of the driving gear 320, so that when the driving gear 320 slides into and starts to mesh with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, it can be axially rotatable relative to the driving rod 310, so that the driving gear 320 can passively and adaptively rotate during the meshing process, so that part of the tooth grooves on the driving gear 320 can smoothly slide into the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, so that the driving gear 320 can smoothly mesh with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, that is, it can ensure that when the transmission member 100 is in any position, the driving gear 320 can smoothly mesh with the plurality of second gears, thereby improving the reliability and adaptability of the retraction mechanism. Preferably, the preset gap is equal to the thickness of the driving gear 320.
[0059] Furthermore, a first introduction section with a partially enlarged diameter is provided at the edge of the driving gear 320, and / or a second introduction section with a partially enlarged diameter is provided on one side of the plurality of second transmission teeth 120 close to the driving gear 320, thereby facilitating the meshing of the driving gear 320 with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120 and providing a certain guiding effect to ensure smooth meshing.
[0060] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4In one embodiment, the retracting assembly 300 further includes a second elastic member 350, which is sleeved on the driving rod 310 and located on the side of the transmission gear away from the transmission member 100. One end of the first elastic member 530 is connected to the driving rod 310, and the other end is connected to the side of the driving gear 320 away from the transmission member 100. The first elastic member 530 is used to apply a thrust to the driving gear 320 toward the transmission member 100, so that the driving gear 320 can stably move relative to the driving rod 310 when in the first position.
[0061] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, when the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the driving gear 320 moves to the end of the first thread 311, so that the thread transmission between the driving gear 320 and the driving rod 310 is interrupted, so that when the driving rod 310 is further rotated, the driving gear 320 and the driving rod 310 can rotate synchronously. Since the driving gear 320 is engaged with a plurality of second transmission gear wheels 120, the transmission member 100 can be driven to retreat by the driving gear 320.
[0062] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a retraction assembly in a retraction mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention. In one embodiment, a step wall 312 is provided on the driving rod 310 , and the step wall 312 is used to abut against the driving gear 320 to limit the driving gear 320 from moving relative to the driving rod 310 .
[0063] Specifically, when the driving gear 320 is engaged with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, that is, when the driving gear 320 is located at the second position, one side of the driving gear 320 abuts against the step wall 312, thereby restricting the movement of the driving gear 320 relative to the driving rod 310. Then, driven by the driving rod 310, the driving gear 320 and the driving rod 310 can rotate stably and synchronously, thereby stably driving the transmission member 100 to retreat, thereby improving the reliability of the retreat mechanism.
[0064] Furthermore, the retraction assembly 300 also includes a boss 313 on the driving rod 310 , the boss 313 is arranged around the circumference of the driving rod 310 and the entire circumference, and the boss 313 is close to one side of the driving gear 320 and is configured as a step wall 312 .
[0065] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2In one embodiment, the transmission member 100 includes a main body, the main body has an adjacent first side surface 140 and a second side surface 150, a plurality of first transmission teeth 110 are arranged on the first side surface 140, a plurality of second transmission teeth 120 are arranged on the second side surface 150, and the intersection line between the first side surface 140 and the second side surface 150 forms a limiting wall 130. When the driving gear 320 is located in the second position, the limiting wall 130 can abut against the driving gear 320 to limit the movement of the driving gear 320 relative to the driving rod 310.
[0066] Furthermore, the transmission member 100 includes a plurality of teeth, which are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the transmission member 100. The portion of the tooth located on the first side surface 140 is configured as a first transmission tooth 110, and the portion of the tooth located on the second side surface 150 is configured as a second transmission tooth 120. The first transmission tooth 110 and the second transmission tooth 120 are arranged as one tooth, which reduces the size of the transmission member 100, simplifies the structure of the transmission member 100, and improves adaptability.
[0067] See also Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 A partial schematic diagram of a retraction mechanism provided in an embodiment of the present invention without the bracket. Figure 7 A partial schematic diagram of a driving assembly in a retraction mechanism provided in one embodiment of the present invention. In one embodiment, the driving assembly 200 further includes a support frame 230 and a rotating shaft 250, one end of the support frame 230 is rotatably connected to the support frame 400 through the rotating shaft 250, and the other end is transmission-connected to the retraction assembly 300, the driven gear 240 is rotatably connected to the support frame 230, and the motor 220 is connected to the support frame 400; when the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the support frame 230 rotates relative to the support frame 400 to drive the driven gear 240 to switch from the meshing position to the disengaging position.
[0068] Specifically, the support frame 230 is connected to the retraction assembly 300 in a transmission connection. When the driving rod 310 rotates to switch the driving gear 320 from the first position to the second position, the retraction assembly 300 can drive the support frame 230 to rotate relative to the bracket 400, so that the support frame 230 drives the driven gear 240 to move relative to the transmission member 100, so that the driven gear 240 is separated from the motor 220 and the plurality of first transmission teeth 110, thereby disconnecting the transmission of the driven gear 240 with the motor 220 and the transmission member 100, that is, the driven gear 240 moves from the meshing position to the disengaged position.
[0069] Furthermore, the driving assembly 200 also includes a driving gear 210, and the driving gear 210 and the transmission member 100 are located on the same side of the driven gear 240. The motor 220 is meshed with the driven gear 240 through the driving gear 210. When the driven gear 240 rotates relative to the bracket 400 under the transmission of the retraction assembly 300, the driven gear 240 can move away from the driving gear 210, thereby disengaging the driven gear 240 from the driving gear 210, so that the transmission between the driven gear 240 and the motor 220 is interrupted.
[0070] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the driving assembly 200 also includes a connecting member 260 and a first elastic member 530, one end of the connecting member 260 is connected to the support frame 230, and the other end abuts against the driving gear 320; the first elastic member 530 is used to apply a force to the support frame 230 toward the transmission member 100.
[0071] Specifically, the side of the connecting member 260 away from the support frame 230 abuts against the driving gear 320. When the driving rod 310 rotates relative to the support frame 400 to drive the driving gear 320 to move, so that the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the driving gear 320 can push the support frame 230 through the connecting member 260, so that the support frame 230 rotates relative to the support frame 400, thereby allowing the support frame 230 to drive the driven gear 240 to move relative to the transmission member 100, so that the driven gear 240 is separated from the motor 220 and the plurality of first transmission teeth 110, thereby disconnecting the transmission of the driven gear 240 with the motor 220 and the transmission member 100, that is, the driven gear 240 moves from the meshing position to the disengaged position.
[0072] Among them, since the side of the connecting member 260 away from the support frame 230 abuts against the driving gear 320, when the driving gear 320 is in the second position and the driving gear 320 rotates under the drive of the driving rod 310, it does not cause interference to the connecting member 260, thereby improving the reliability of the retracting mechanism.
[0073] Furthermore, the connecting member 260 includes a connecting rod 261 and a first bending portion 262. One end of the connecting rod 261 is connected to the support frame 230, and the other end is connected to the first bending portion 262. The first bending portion 262 is arc-shaped on the side facing the driving gear 320. The first bending portion 262 is used to abut against the driving gear 320, thereby avoiding stress concentration and improving the reliability of the retraction mechanism in the process of the driving gear 320 pushing the connecting member 260 to move.
[0074] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In one embodiment, one end of the first elastic member 530 is connected to the support frame 230 , and the other end is connected to the bracket 400 .
[0075] Specifically, the first elastic member 530 is a spring, and the first elastic member 530 is in a compressed state, thereby applying a force toward the transmission member 100 to the support frame 230, so that when the driven gear 240 is in the meshing position, it can stably drive the transmission member 100 forward.
[0076] Furthermore, the connecting member 260 also includes a second bending portion 263, which is connected to one end of the connecting rod 261 away from the first bending portion 262 and extends to the side away from the support frame 230. One end of the spring away from the bracket 400 is connected to the second bending portion 263, thereby avoiding interference of the spring with the support frame 230 and improving the adaptability of the retraction mechanism.
[0077] See also Figure 1 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the first elastic member 530 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 250. Specifically, the first spring is a torsion spring, one end of which is connected to the rotating shaft 250, and the other end is connected to the support frame 230, and the torsion spring is in a compressed state, thereby applying a stable force to the support frame 230 toward the transmission member 100.
[0078] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In other embodiments, the driving assembly 200 also includes a transmission block 340, which is transmission-connected to the support frame 230, and the outer periphery of the driving rod 310 is provided with a second thread 314 that cooperates with the transmission block 340; when the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the transmission block 340 switches from being threadedly connected to the driving rod 310 through the second thread 314 to being rotationally connected to the driving rod 310, so that the threaded transmission of the transmission block 340 and the driving rod 310 is disconnected.
[0079] Specifically, the transmission block 340 is sleeved on the driving rod 310. When the driving gear 320 is in the first position, the transmission block 340 is connected to the second thread 314. When the driving rod 310 rotates relative to the bracket 400 to drive the driving gear 320 to switch from the first position to the second position, the transmission block 340 moves along the extension direction of the driving rod 310 under the drive of the driving rod 310, thereby driving the support frame 230 to move so that the support frame 230 rotates relative to the bracket 400.
[0080] Among them, when the driving gear 320 moves to the second position, the driving rod 310 needs to be rotated to drive the driving gear 320 to rotate. Since the transmission block 340 is rotationally connected to the driving rod 310 at this time, the transmission block 340 will not rotate synchronously with the driving rod 310, and will not continue to push the support frame 230 to rotate relative to the bracket 400.
[0081] Furthermore, an avoidance section 315 is provided on the driving rod 310, and the avoidance section 315 is located on the side of the second thread 314 away from the step wall 312, and the diameter of the avoidance end is not larger than the inner diameter of the second thread 314, so that when the driving gear 320 switches from the first position to the second position, the transmission block 340 switches from being threadedly connected with the second thread 314 to being rotationally connected with the avoidance section 315.
[0082] Furthermore, a limiting protrusion 316 is provided at one end of the avoidance section 315 away from the second thread 314. The limiting protrusion 316 is arranged around the entire circumference of the driving rod 310. The limiting protrusion 316 is used to abut the transmission block 340 to limit the movement of the transmission block 340 relative to the driving rod 310 in the avoidance section 315, thereby improving the reliability of the retracting mechanism.
[0083] In addition, the driving assembly 200 also includes a mating piece (unmarked), one end of which is connected to the transmission block 340, and the other end is rotatably connected to the support frame 230, so as to enable stable transmission. At the same time, when the driven gear 240 is in the meshing position, it is connected to the transmission block 340 through the mating piece, so that the driven gear 240 can be stably meshed with the transmission member 100.
[0084] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the support frame 230 may be transmission-connected to the driving gear 320 , may be transmission-connected to the transmission block 340 , or may be transmission-connected to both the driving gear 320 and the transmission block 340 .
[0085] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2In one embodiment, the bracket 400 has a limiting channel 430, a first mounting groove 410 and a second mounting groove 420, and the first mounting groove 410 and the second mounting groove 420 are both connected to the limiting channel 430. The transmission member 100 is installed in the limiting channel 430 and abuts against a part of the side wall of the limiting channel 430, so that the transmission member 100 can stably move forward and backward under the transmission of the driving gear 320 and the driven gear 240. The first mounting groove 410 is opposite to the first side surface 140 of the transmission member 100, and the support frame 230 is installed in the first mounting groove 410, so that the driven gear 240 installed on the support frame 230 is easy to mesh with the plurality of first transmission teeth 110. The second mounting groove 420 is opposite to the second side surface 150 of the transmission member 100, and the driving gear 320 is installed in the second mounting groove 420, so that the driving gear 320 is easy to mesh with the plurality of second transmission teeth 120. The setting of the limiting channel 430, the first installation groove 410 and the second installation groove 420 enables the driving component 200, the retraction component 300, etc. to be stably connected to the bracket 400 while cooperating with the transmission member 100, thereby improving the adaptability of the retraction component 300.

Fig.10 A schematic diagram of a cutting and suturing device provided in one embodiment of the present invention. Fig.11 A schematic diagram of a cutting and suturing device provided in an embodiment of the present invention without a housing. In one embodiment, the retraction mechanism further includes a housing 520 and a cover plate 510, the housing 520 is connected to the bracket 400 and is used to cover the retraction assembly 300 and the driving assembly 200, the housing 520 has an observation port in an area corresponding to the driving gear 320, and the cover plate 510 is connected to the housing 520 and is used to cover the observation port.
[0087] Furthermore, a matching groove is provided on the side of the driving rod 310 away from the support frame 230, and an unlocking piece 511 is provided at one end of the cover plate 510. When it is necessary to control the transmission member 100 to retract, the cover plate 510 can be removed, and the unlocking piece 511 on one side of the cover plate 510 is inserted into the matching groove on the driving rod 310 to control the rotation of the cover plate 510 to realize the rotation of the driving rod 310, so that the retraction efficiency of the transmission member 100 is higher and more convenient. Among them, the size of the cover plate 510 is larger than the size of the unlocking piece 511, which can also achieve the effect of saving effort. Preferably, the matching groove is a straight mouth.
[0088] In other embodiments, the driving rod 310 may also be controlled to rotate by other operating members such as a wrench.
[0089] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In one embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a cutting and suturing device, including an end actuator 600 and the above-mentioned retraction mechanism, the end actuator 600 includes a movable cutting component for cutting an object located in the end actuator 600, and the cutting component is transmission-connected to the transmission member 100.
[0090] Specifically, in the present application, the driving rod 310 is rotatably connected to the bracket 400, and the driving gear 320 is transmission-connected to the driving rod 310. The driving rod 310 can operably control the driving gear 320 to switch from the first position to the second position, so that the driven gear 240 switches from the meshing position to the disengaged position, that is, the driven gear 240 is disengaged from the plurality of first transmission teeth 110 and the motor 220, so that the driven gear 240 is disconnected from the transmission member 100. At the same time, the driving gear 320 is connected to the plurality of second transmission teeth 120, so that the rotation of the driving gear 320 itself can be converted into the movement of the transmission member 100, so that the transmission member 100 retreats, that is, every time the driving gear 320 rotates one circle, the transmission member 100 can retreat the circumference of the driving gear 320, thereby greatly improving the retreat efficiency of the transmission member 100, achieving efficient retreat, and improving the adaptability of the cutting and suturing device.
