[0049] It should be noted that, in the present invention, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only the elements explicitly listed, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a tissue scraper 10 , which includes a flexible curette blade 110 , a fixing rod 120 , a driving rod 130 and a handle 140 .

[0051] The tissue scraper 10 plays an important role in the surgical process and is used to perform delicate and precise scraping operations on various human tissues. The tissue scraper 10 can be used to scrape human tissues including hard bone tissue, meniscus, and cartilage on the surface of joints. In addition, it can also be used to scrape ligaments connecting bones; at the same time, it also includes the hose ring (labrum) at the edge of the hip joint and the labrum (labrum) of the shoulder joint. In addition, in the field of oral medicine, the tissue scraper can also be used to scrape dental calculus.

[0052] The flexible scraper blade 110 is in sheet shape, and its two ends are a first end 111 and a second end 112, which are respectively connected to the fixing rod 120 and the driving rod 130. The shape and size of the scraper blade 110 can be changed by changing the relative position between the first end 111 and the second end 112.

[0053] The two ends of the fixed rod 120 are respectively a third end 121 and a fourth end 122. The third end 121 is fixedly connected to the first end 111 of the scraper blade 110, and an open groove is provided on the third end 121 of the fixed rod 120 for mounting the first end 111 of the scraper blade 110. The open groove design on the fixed rod 120 enables a detachable connection between the fixed rod 120 and the scraper blade 110. When the scraper blade 110 needs to be replaced due to aging, the scraper blade 110 can be removed from the fixed rod 120 to replace the scraper blade 110, thereby avoiding the need to replace the tissue scraper 10 as a whole simply because the scraper blade 110 has reached the end of its service life.

[0054] The tissue scraper 10 further includes a driving rod 130 and a handle 140. The handle 140 is connected to the driving rod 130 and the fixed rod 120, respectively, and the driving rod 130 and the fixed rod 120 are relatively slidably connected. The two ends of the driving rod 130 are respectively a fifth end 131 and a sixth end 132, and the fifth end 131 is fixedly connected to the second end 112 of the scraper blade 110. The two ends of the scraper blade 110 are respectively connected to the driving rod 130 and the fixed rod 120, and the driving rod 130 slides relative to the fixed rod 120 to change the shape of the scraper blade 110.

[0055] Specifically, the handle 140 is fixedly connected to the sixth end 132 of the driving rod 130, and the handle 140 is movably connected to the fourth end 122 of the fixed rod 120. During operation, the handle 140 drives the driving rod 130 to slide relative to the fixed rod 120 to change the relative positions of the scraper blade 110, the fixed rod 120, and the driving rod 130, and finally changes the size and shape of the scraper blade 110 exposed outside the fixed rod 120.

[0056] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fixed rod 120 has a hollow portion inside. In this embodiment, the hollow portion is a circular through hole provided in the fixed rod 120 for the driving rod 130 to pass through. The driving rod 130 is provided in the hollow portion of the fixed rod 120. With such a configuration, during the operation, when the curette blade 110 is moved closer to the operating part through the fixed rod 120, since the driving rod 130 is completely provided inside the fixed rod 120, it is only necessary to consider whether the shape of the fixed rod 120 will interfere with other parts of the patient's body, and it is not necessary to consider the interference of other parts of the patient on the moving path of the driving rod 130.

[0057] Continue as Figure 2As shown, the tissue scraper 10 further includes a rotation adjustment portion 150. The rotation adjustment portion 150 is sleeved on the fixed rod 120 and cooperates with the handle 140. By relatively rotating the handle 140 and the rotation adjustment portion 150, the relative positions of the handle 140 and the rotation adjustment portion 150 are changed, and then the relative position between the fixed rod 120 and the driving rod 130 is changed to change the shape of the scraper blade 110. In this embodiment, the rotation adjustment portion 150 is provided with a threaded hole, the inner wall of the threaded hole is provided with a thread and is a through hole; the handle 140 is provided with a threaded portion 141 with an external thread, and the threaded hole on the rotation adjustment portion 150 matches the threaded portion 141 on the handle 140. During use of the tissue scraper 10, the rotation adjustment portion 150 is connected to the handle 140 via a thread. By rotating the handle 140 or the rotation adjustment portion 150, the handle 140 can move relative to the rotation adjustment portion 150 along the thread axis. The handle 140 and the drive rod 130 are fixedly connected, so that the drive rod 130 can move relative to the fixed rod 120 along the thread axis, thereby changing the shape of the scraper blade 110.

[0058] The rotation adjustment part 150 and the handle 140 are connected via a threaded pair, and the relative position between the fixing rod 120 and the driving rod 130 can be precisely adjusted as needed during rotation, thereby achieving accurate adjustment of the shape of the scraper blade 110 .

[0059] In other embodiments, a sliding groove and a sliding block may be respectively provided on the handle 140 and the fixing rod 120 , so that the handle 140 drives the driving rod 130 to move relative to the fixing rod 120 .

[0060] The sixth end 132 of the driving rod 130 is provided with a hook 133 which forms an angle with the axis of the driving rod 130 , and the hook 133 is used to be hung on the handle 140 so as to achieve a detachable connection with the handle 140 . Figure 4 As shown, a connection hole 142 is provided on the handle 140, and the hook 133 is inserted into the connection hole 142. When the handle 140 and the driving rod 130 need to be connected, the hook 133 is hung in the connection hole 142 to achieve the matching connection between the handle 140 and the driving rod 130, so as to achieve the relative positioning between the handle 140 and the driving rod 130 along the axis direction of the driving rod 130.

[0061] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the handle 140 is provided with a first avoidance groove 143, and the direction of the first avoidance groove 143 is parallel to the moving direction of the driving rod 130. The width of the first avoidance groove 143 is greater than the width of the hook 133, and the hook 133 is arranged in the first avoidance groove 143. The first avoidance groove 143 limits the hook 133, so that the driving rod 130 cannot rotate relative to the handle 140, and the driving rod 130 is limited to linear motion relative to the handle 140.

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown, a second avoidance groove 123 is provided at the fourth end 122 of the fixed rod 120, the second avoidance groove 123 is parallel to the first avoidance groove 143, and the width of the second avoidance groove 123 is greater than the width of the hook 133. The hook 133 is provided in the first avoidance groove 143, so that the driving rod 130 cannot rotate relative to the fixed rod 120, and the driving rod 130 is limited to linear motion relative to the fixed rod 120.

[0063] The tissue scraper 10 further includes a rotating sleeve 160, which is fixedly sleeved on the fixed rod 120. The rotation adjustment portion 150 is sleeved on the rotating sleeve 160, and the rotation adjustment portion 150 rotates on the rotating sleeve 160. The rotating sleeve 160 is provided with a raised ring, which contacts the rotating adjustment portion 150, thereby reducing the contact area between the rotating sleeve 160 and the rotating adjustment portion 150 and reducing the resistance to the rotation of the rotating adjustment portion 150.

[0064] The tissue scraper 10 further includes a retaining ring 170. A slot is provided on the fixed rod 120, the slot being close to the side of the rotating sleeve 160 away from the handle 140, the retaining ring 170 is embedded in the slot, and the rotating sleeve 160 abuts against the retaining ring 170. The retaining ring 170 is used to achieve axial positioning of the rotating adjustment part 150 and the fixed rod 120, and to prevent the rotating adjustment part 150 from axially moving relative to the fixed rod 120.

[0065] like Figure 6 As shown, the flexible scraper blade 110 has a variable shape. The scraper blade 110 is used to clean the bone surface during surgery to remove unwanted soft tissue, bone scraps or other impurities. The shape of the scraper blade 110 can be changed by changing the relative position between the first end 111 and the second end 112 at both ends of the scraper blade 110. The shape between the first end 111 and the second end 112 of the scraper blade 110 can be circular, triangular, square, diamond and other ring-shaped shapes.

[0066] The material of the scraper blade 110 can be selected from one or more of flexible stainless steel, medical memory alloy or polymer material. Flexible stainless steel can be bent, twisted or folded to a certain extent, and can adapt to application scenarios with different shapes and space requirements; medical memory alloys include nickel-titanium alloys or copper-based memory alloys; medical memory alloys can return to a preset shape under specific conditions (such as temperature changes), and medical memory alloys have good biocompatibility and have no obvious irritation and toxicity to human tissues.

[0067] Although the content of the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, it should be appreciated that the above description should not be considered as a limitation of the present invention. After reading the above content, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and substitutions of the present invention will occur. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be limited by the appended claims.
