[0041] The present invention is further described in detail below so that those skilled in the art can implement it according to the description.

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a basket forceps provided by the present invention comprises:

[0043] Tip shaft assembly 110, connecting rod 120, movable jaw assembly 130 and handle assembly;

[0044] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the tip shaft assembly 110 includes a tip end portion 111 and a fixed rod 112, one end of the fixed rod 112 is integrally arranged with the tip end portion 111, the tip end portion 111 is an elliptical structure, and a recessed portion is arranged at the inner center thereof for accommodating the movable jaw assembly 130; the fixed rod 112 is provided with a rectangular accommodating cavity along its axis for accommodating the connecting rod 120; a first arc-shaped groove 113 is symmetrically arranged on the inner walls on both sides of the accommodating cavity at one end close to the tip end portion 111.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the connecting rod 120 is slidably arranged in the accommodating cavity, and the connecting rod 120 includes an integrally formed first part 121 and a second part 122, the width of the first part 121 is smaller than the width of the second part 122, and first arc-shaped flanges 123 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first part 121, and the sum of the width of the first part 121 and the width of the two first arc-shaped flanges 123 is the same as the width of the second part 122.

[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, the movable jaw assembly 130 includes an integrally formed jaw portion 131 and a rotating portion 132. The jaw portion 131 cooperates with the pointed end 111 assembly to form a jaw head. The jaw portion 131 can be accommodated in the recessed portion. The rotating portion 132 is two symmetrically arranged plate-like structures. The outer side of the rotating portion 132 is symmetrically provided with a second arc-shaped flange 133, and the inner side of the rotating portion 132 is symmetrically provided with a second arc-shaped groove 134.

[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the second arc-shaped flange 133 slides with the first arc-shaped groove 113, and the second arc-shaped groove 134 slides with the first arc-shaped flange 123, together forming a rotating structure, so that the connecting rod 120 can drive the movable jaw assembly 130 to slide in the tip shaft assembly 110, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the movable jaw assembly 130 toward the direction of the tip shaft assembly 110.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first arc-shaped flange 123 , the first arc-shaped groove 113 , the second arc-shaped flange 133 and the second arc-shaped groove 134 are all arc-shaped structures.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the handle assembly includes a thumb end 141 and a finger end 142, and both the thumb end 141 and the finger end 142 are annular structures for accommodating the passage of fingers, and the thumb end 141 is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed rod 112; the finger end 142 and the thumb end 141 are rotatably connected to each other, and the finger end 142 is connected to an end of the second part 122 away from the first part 121, for selectively pulling or pushing the connecting rod 120 to move back and forth in the accommodating cavity.

[0050] In this embodiment, the finger end 142 and the thumb end 141 are rotatably connected to each other via a pin.

[0051] In this embodiment, the finger tip 142 and the connecting rod 120 can be fixed to each other or engaged with each other, so that the rotation of the finger tip can drive the connecting rod 120 to move forward and backward, forming a driving structure, and then driving the shearing movement of the pliers head.

[0052] In this embodiment, if Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the inner circumference of the jaw portion 131 away from the rotating portion 132 is provided with a serrated shearing blade, and the inner circumference of the recessed portion away from the fixed rod 112 is provided with an arc-shaped shearing blade. The serrated shearing blade can cooperate with the arc-shaped shearing blade to form a clamp head shearing structure.

[0053] The working principle of the basket clamp described in the present invention is:

[0054] Along the established channel, the basket forceps are inserted deep into the joint cavity, the thumb and fingers are held, the finger ends are driven to rotate, and the connecting rod is driven to drive the movable jaw assembly to rotate the movable jaw assembly to form a shearing structure to shear the soft tissue.

[0055] Because it is difficult to observe the position relationship between the jaws and soft tissue under the endoscope environment, when the soft tissue penetrates too deep into the jaws, adhesion problems may occur at the end, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the basket forceps of the present invention extend the serrated shearing blade portion to the rotation center of the rotating structure so that the movable jaw assembly is within the range of the shearing blade at any opening angle, thereby completely solving the problem of adhesion at the end when soft tissue penetrates too deep into the jaws, eliminating the need for repeated shearing, reducing surgical operation time, increasing use efficiency, and reducing patient pain.

[0056] In addition, the pin structure is not used at the pliers head, but a sliding structure is used instead, which reduces the risk of the pliers falling off and remaining in the cavity due to pin breakage, effectively improves the mechanical strength and increases the service life.

[0057] The basket forceps designed and developed by the present invention has a symmetrical rotating structure, which can better control the lateral displacement of the jaws, avoid continuous unilateral shearing due to the lateral displacement of the jaws, eliminate the need for repeated shearing, reduce surgical operation time, increase use efficiency, and reduce patient pain.

[0058] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed as above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and the implementation modes. They can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those familiar with the art, additional modifications can be easily implemented. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and the scope of equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and the embodiments shown and described herein.
