Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a linear cutting stapler with automatic stroke compensation. Background Art

[0002] The linear cutting stapler is a medical device used for the severance, resection and / or establishment of anastomosis of digestive tract tissue or lung tissue during open surgery or laparoscopy. In actual operation, different lengths of stapler cartridges are selected according to different usage environments, and different lengths of stapler cartridges require different lengths of blade assemblies to be used. Existing linear cutting staplers usually require the blade assembly model to be identified by swiping a card or pressing a button, and different motor strokes to be selected. This increases the complexity of use, is prone to errors, and increases the cost of the electric stapler. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a linear cutting stapler with automatic stroke compensation in order to solve the above problems in the prior art. The above purpose of the present invention is achieved by the following technical means:

[0006] The limit locking block is provided with a protrusion, and the tail end of the slide groove is provided with a blocking portion for blocking. When the push knife positioning sleeve moves backward and is blocked by the blocking portion provided at the tail end of the slide groove, the protrusion squeezes the spring clamp, so that the long push knife rod is disconnected from the push knife positioning sleeve;

[0007] There are two micro switch trigger blocks, which are respectively arranged at the front end and the rear end of the short push knife rod, and the micro switch is arranged between the two micro switch trigger blocks;

[0008] The push blade includes a push blade rod and a blade head arranged at the front end of the push blade rod. The front end surface of the blade head shell is provided with a push blade blade head placement groove. The push blade rod is located in the blade head shell and the front end passes through the push blade blade head placement groove and is connected to the blade head. The push blade blade head placement groove blocks the blade head from entering the blade head shell.

[0009] A limit locking block positioning groove is arranged in the cutter head housing, the limit locking block is clamped in the limit locking block positioning groove, and the distance from the limit locking block positioning groove to the push blade head placement groove is adapted to the length of the push blade;

[0010] The material of the limit locking block is polyurethane;

[0011] The number of the spring clamps is two and they are symmetrically arranged relative to the central axis of the long pusher rod, and the number of the corresponding limit locking blocks is two;

[0012] When the long knife pusher rod is at the starting position and the long knife pusher rod is disconnected from the knife pusher positioning sleeve, an empty travel interval is provided between the front end of the long knife pusher rod and the rear end of the knife pusher positioning sleeve.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The present invention uses the cooperation of a micro switch and a micro development trigger block to automatically control the stroke length of the linear drive motor. An empty stroke interval is set between the long push blade rod and the push blade positioning sleeve, which can adapt to push blades of different lengths, avoiding the risk of misoperation caused by the need to swipe a card or manually select the motor stroke of the linear drive motor corresponding to push blades of different lengths in the prior art, thereby effectively reducing medical accidents that may be caused by misselection of the stroke and improving the safety of the operation. The operation time is shortened, the work efficiency is improved, and human intervention is reduced. The complicated card swiping recognition process and chip program setting are omitted, the operation is simple, and the cost is saved.

[0015] 2. The limit locking block is made of polyurethane (PU) material, and its buffering effect can reduce the vibration of the clamp head and reduce the tearing and bleeding of the clamped tissue.

[0016] 3. A plurality of limit locking block positioning grooves are arranged on the cutter head housing. The limit locking blocks are arranged in different limit locking block positioning grooves to meet different push blade lengths, thereby reducing costs and improving versatility of use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand and implement the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments. The embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] like Figure 1-7 A linear cutting stapler with automatic stroke compensation includes a body 3, a push rod assembly 2, a cutter head assembly 1 and a staple cartridge clamp head assembly 10.

[0031] The fuselage 3 includes a fuselage shell 301 and a drive control component 9 arranged inside the fuselage shell 301. The drive control component 9 includes a linear drive motor and a micro switch 11. The linear drive motor is connected to the rear end of a short push knife rod 8. The short push knife rod 8 is located in the fuselage shell 301. A micro switch trigger block 12 is provided on the short push knife rod 8. When the linear drive motor drives the short push knife rod 8 to move, so that the micro switch trigger block 12 hits the micro switch 11, the linear drive motor stops working, the short push knife rod 8 stops moving, and the micro switch 11 is fixed in the fuselage shell 301.

[0032] In some embodiments, there are two micro switch trigger blocks 12, which are respectively arranged at the front end and the rear end of the short push blade rod 8. The distance between the micro switch trigger blocks 12 is the stroke of the linear drive motor. The micro switch 11 is fixed in the fuselage shell 301 and is located between the two micro switch trigger blocks 12. The stroke length of the linear drive motor is automatically controlled by the cooperation of the micro switch 11 and the micro switch trigger block 12. An empty stroke interval 14 is set between the long push blade rod 7 and the push blade positioning sleeve 5, which can adapt to push blades 4 of different lengths, avoiding the risk of misoperation caused by the motor stroke of the linear drive motor corresponding to push blades of different lengths by swiping a card or manually selecting in the prior art, thereby effectively reducing the medical accidents that may be caused by misselection of the stroke and improving the safety of the operation. The operation time is shortened, the work efficiency is improved, and human intervention is reduced. The complicated card swiping recognition process and chip program setting are omitted, the operation is simple, and the cost is saved.

[0033] The push rod assembly 2 includes a push rod housing 201 and a long push knife rod 7 arranged in the push rod housing 201. The rear end of the long push knife rod 7 is threadedly connected to the front end of the short push knife rod 8. A spring clamp 13 is arranged on the outer wall of the front end of the long push knife rod 7. The spring clamp 13 is connected to a compression spring arranged inside the long push knife rod 7. When the spring clamp 13 is not squeezed by external force, under the action of the elastic force of the compression spring, the clamp head of the spring clamp 13 protrudes from the outer wall of the push knife rod 7. When the spring clamp 13 is squeezed by external force, it moves relative to the central axis direction of the long push knife rod 7 and is completely retracted inside the long push knife rod 7.

[0034] In some embodiments, there are two spring clamps 13 and they are symmetrically arranged relative to the central axis of the long pusher rod 7 .

[0035] The cutter head assembly 1 includes a cutter head shell 101, a limit locking block 6, a push knife positioning sleeve 5 and a push blade 4. The push knife positioning sleeve 5 is located in the cutter head shell 101. A card slot 501 is provided at the rear end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5. The spring card head 13 provided on the front end outer wall of the long push knife rod 7 can be elastically inserted into the card slot 501. A push blade 4 is provided at the front end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5. The push blade 4 includes a push knife rod portion 402 and a cutter head 401 arranged at the front end of the push knife rod portion. A slide bar 502 is provided on the side of the push knife positioning sleeve 5. The limit locking block 6 is fixed to the inner wall of the cutter head shell 101. A slide groove 602 adapted to the slide bar 502 is provided on the limit locking block 6. The slide bar 502 is embedded in the slide groove 602 and can move back and forth along the slide groove 602. A blocking portion is provided at the tail end of the slide groove 602. A protrusion 601 is provided on the limit locking block 6.

[0036] The nail magazine forceps head assembly 10 is assembled to the blade housing 101 of the blade assembly 1 through a connecting head. The blade head 401 of the push blade 4 enters the nail magazine forceps head assembly 10 for cutting under drive. The opening and closing drive structure of the nail magazine forceps head assembly 10 belongs to the prior art and is not described in detail in the present invention.

[0037] During surgery, the staple cartridge clamp assembly 10 is closed first, and then the linear drive motor is started to control the short push knife rod 8 to move forward. When the linear drive motor drives the short push knife rod 8 to move forward, it further pushes the long push knife rod 7 to move forward. When the spring clamp 13 set at the front end of the long push knife rod 7 contacts the inner wall of the rear end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5, under the cooperation of the slide groove 602 and the slide bar 502, the push knife positioning sleeve 5 is pushed forward relative to the limit locking block 6. At this time, the protrusion 601 on the limit locking block 6 is not located outside the slot 501 at the rear end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5. The spring clamp 13 is squeezed by the inner wall of the push knife positioning sleeve 5 and shrinks to the inside of the long push knife rod 7; when the spring clamp 13 moves to the slot 501 position set at the rear end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5, the spring clamp 13 moves away from the central axis of the long push knife rod 7 under the action of the spring. The spring clamp 13 is stuck in the slot 501. Since the protrusion 601 on the limit locking block 6 is not located outside the slot 501 at the rear end of the push knife positioning sleeve 5, the protrusion 601 will not push the spring clamp 13 back into the push knife positioning sleeve 5, so that the long push knife rod 7 is fixedly connected to the push knife positioning sleeve 5. The long push knife rod 7 drives the push knife positioning sleeve 5 and the push blade 4 to move forward. When the knife head 401 of the push blade 4 enters the nail magazine clamp head assembly 10, cutting begins. Subsequently, the nail magazine clamp head assembly 10 is closed for suturing. When the knife head 401 of the push blade 4 runs to the front end of the nail magazine clamp head assembly 10, the micro switch trigger block 12 arranged at the rear end of the short push knife rod 8 contacts the micro switch 11, the linear drive motor stops working, and the knife output process ends.

[0038] When the cutting and suturing process is finished, the switch is turned on, the linear drive motor drives the short push knife rod 8 to move backward, and the long push knife rod 7 drives the push knife positioning sleeve 5 and the push blade 4 to move backward. Under the cooperation of the slide groove 602 and the slide bar 502, the push knife positioning sleeve 5 moves backward relative to the limit locking block 6. Since the rear end of the slide groove 602 is provided with a blocking portion, when the slide bar 502 moves along the slide groove 602 to the blocking portion, the push knife positioning sleeve 5 is prevented from further moving backward relative to the limit locking block 6. At the same time, the limit locking block 6 The protrusion 601 is located on the outside of the slot 501 of the push knife positioning sleeve 5, and the spring clamp 13 is squeezed by the protrusion 601 on the limit locking block 6 and shrinks to the inside of the long push knife rod 7, and the long push knife rod 7 is disconnected from the push knife positioning sleeve 5. As the long push knife rod 7 continues to move backward, the long push knife rod 7 is separated from the push knife positioning sleeve 5. When the micro switch trigger block 12 set at the front end of the short push knife rod 8 contacts the micro switch 11, the linear drive motor stops working, the long push knife rod 7 is in a reset state, and the retracting process ends.

[0039] In some embodiments, the number of the limiting locking blocks 6 is two.

[0040] In some embodiments, the material of the limit locking block 6 is polyurethane (PU). The polyurethane material has a buffering effect that can reduce the vibration of the forceps head and reduce the tearing and bleeding of the clamped tissue.

[0041] For nail magazine clamp head assemblies 10 of different lengths, the required lengths of the push blade 4 are also different. When the length of the nail magazine in the nail magazine clamp head assembly 10 is shorter, the length of the push blade 4 is correspondingly shorter;

[0042] like Fig.10 The length of the cutter head assembly 1 is fixed, and a push blade head placement groove 16 is provided on the front end surface of the cutter head shell of the cutter head assembly 1. The push blade 4 includes a push blade rod portion 402 and a cutter head 401 arranged at the front end of the push blade rod portion. The push blade rod portion 402 is located in the cutter head shell 101 and the front end passes through the push blade head placement groove 16 and is connected to the cutter head 401. The cutter head 401 cannot pass through the push blade head placement groove 16 and enter the cutter head shell 101. The push blade 4 can be driven back by the long push blade rod 7 until the cutter head 401 is stuck in the push blade head placement groove 16. According to the different lengths of the push blade 4, a limit locking block positioning groove 15 is provided at the corresponding position of the cutter head shell 101 of the cutter head assembly 1, and the distance from each limit locking block positioning groove 15 to the push blade head placement groove 16 is adapted to the length of the push blade 4. The limit locking block 6 is clamped in different limit locking block positioning grooves 15 to meet the needs of different push blade 4 lengths, thereby reducing costs and improving versatility.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, a limit locking block 6 is clamped in the limit locking block positioning groove 15 . When the push blade 4 needs to be replaced, the clamping position of the limit locking block 6 is adjusted according to the length of the push blade 4 .

[0044] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 If the length of the nail magazine forceps head assembly 10 is longer, the length of the push blade 4 in the cutter head assembly 1 is also longer; if the length of the nail magazine forceps head assembly 10 is shorter, the length of the push blade 4 in the cutter head assembly 1 is also shorter.

[0045] In order to adapt to the different lengths of the push blade 4, an idle stroke interval 14 is designed between the front end of the long push blade rod 7 and the rear end of the push blade positioning sleeve 5. The idle stroke interval 14 is the distance from the front end of the long push blade rod 7 to the rear end of the push blade positioning sleeve 5 when the long push blade rod 7 is in the starting position (not pushed forward) and the blade head 401 at the front end of the push blade 4 is located in the position of the push blade blade head placement groove 16. By changing the length of the idle stroke interval 14, the automatic stroke compensation function is realized, so that the push blade distance can be automatically adapted according to the different blade head assemblies 1, thereby ensuring that the push blade 4 can be accurately positioned during the push blade process to meet different surgical needs.

[0046] The length of the cutter head housing 101 of the cutter head assembly 1 is fixed. When the length of the push blade 4 is long, the length of the idle stroke interval 14 is short. When the length of the push blade 4 is short, the length of the idle stroke interval 14 is long.

[0047] It should be noted that the embodiments described in the present invention are merely examples of the spirit of the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or additions to the described embodiments or replace them in similar ways, but they will not deviate from the spirit of the present invention or exceed the scope defined by the attached claims.
