DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0052] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] See also Figure 1-7One embodiment of the present invention is: a thrombus removal device for cerebral blood vessels, comprising a sheath tube 1, and further comprising:

[0054] The blocking mechanism 2 is arranged on the outer wall of the sheath tube 1 and on both sides of the sheath tube 1 to block the blood vessel 5;

[0055] The crushing mechanism 3 is arranged between the two blocking mechanisms 2 and is used to crush the thrombus at the lesion;

[0056] A guiding mechanism 4 is provided at the end of the sheath tube 1 and is used to guide the sheath tube 1 into the blood vessel 5;

[0057] Wherein, the blocking mechanism 2 comprises:

[0058] A mounting cavity 26 is provided on the outer wall of the sheath tube 1;

[0059] The two slide rails 24 are symmetrically installed in the installation cavity 26, and the air bag 22 is installed in the installation cavity 26 for expanding to block the blood flow.

[0060] The blocking mechanism 2 also includes:

[0061] A slide groove 25 is provided on the slide rail 24;

[0062] The sheath sleeve 21 is sleeved on the outer wall of the sheath 1 and moves in the slide groove 25 through a slider 23 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sheath sleeve 21 to limit the expansion of the airbag 22 .

[0063] Working principle: When performing a vascular thrombectomy operation, the right end of the sheath 1 is guided by the guiding mechanism 4 and enters the interior of the blood vessel 5. At the same time, the two blocking mechanisms 2 are used. After moving to the lesion of the blood vessel 5, the catheter 36 is pulled to move, and then the slider 23 is driven to move at the same time, thereby driving the sheath sleeve 21 to move, and the airbag 22 set in the installation cavity 26 is inflated and expanded to achieve blocking of the blood vessels at both ends of the lesion, so as to facilitate the removal of the thrombus at the lesion using the crushing mechanism 3.

[0064] See also Figure 1-7 Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, the crushing mechanism 3 includes:

[0065] The second installation cavity 31 is provided on the outer wall of the sheath tube 1;

[0066] Sliding block 1 32, slidably connected to the outer wall of mounting cavity 2 31;

[0067] The second slider 33 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second mounting cavity 31;

[0068] A plurality of crushing wires 34 are respectively connected between the slider 1 32 and the slider 2 33 . When the distance between the slider 1 32 and the slider 2 33 decreases, the crushing wires 34 open to crush the thrombus.

[0069] The crushing mechanism 3 also includes:

[0070] The spiral groove 35 is formed on the outer wall of the second mounting cavity 31, and the first slider 32 is spirally connected to the spiral groove 35;

[0071] When the slider 1 22 spirally approaches the slider 2 33 , the plurality of crushing wires 34 are twisted to crush the thrombus.

[0072] The bottom of the slide groove 25 extends to the inner wall of the sheath tube 1, and the inner wall of the sheath tube 1 is movably connected with a catheter 36, and the outer wall of the catheter 36 is provided with an annular groove and connected to the slider 23, which is used to pull the slider 23 to move;

[0073] When the slider moves, it resists the movement of the slider 1 32 to push the slider 1 32 to rotate in the spiral groove 35, so as to drive the slider 1 32 to rotate, so as to expand the crushing wire 34 to rotate and crush the thrombus.

[0074] Working principle: When the thrombus needs to be cleared, the catheter 36 is pulled to move, which drives the slider 23 to move, and then pushes the slider 1 32 to move, thereby pushing the slider 1 32 closer to the slider 2 33, and at this time, the crushing wire 34 is squeezed, so that it expands to break the thrombus;

[0075] When the slider 32 moves, it is connected to the spiral groove 35, so that the slider 32 will produce a spiral rotation, thereby synchronously driving the crushing wire 34 to spirally expand, thereby expanding and spirally cutting the thrombus to achieve the effect of crushing the thrombus.

[0076] See also Figure 1-7 Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present invention, the guiding mechanism 4 includes:

[0077] A guide head 41 is arranged at the right end of the sheath tube 1;

[0078] A rubber sleeve 42 connected between the guide head 41 and the sheath tube 1;

[0079] A mounting sleeve 43 is fixedly connected to the right end of the sheath tube 1;

[0080] The ball 44 is movably connected to the right side of the mounting sleeve 43 and connected to the guide head 41 through a connecting rod 45;

[0081] The guide head 41 is deflected on the mounting sleeve 43 by the ball 44 so as to pass through the curved blood vessel 5 .

[0082] The guiding mechanism 4 also includes:

[0083] The rotating shaft 48 is mounted on the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 43 through a micro bearing 49;

[0084] A plurality of guide rods 410 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 43 and connected to the outer wall of the miniature bearing 49;

[0085] A return spring 411 is connected between the sheath tube 1 and the rotating shaft 48 and is used to pull the rotating shaft 48 away from the ball 44;

[0086] The baffle 46 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sphere 44;

[0087] A push rod 47 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 48 and deviates from the side of the center of the circle, and contacts the baffle 46 through the push rod 47;

[0088] The transmission rod 412 is fixedly connected to the left side of the rotating shaft 48 and slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide tube 36 .

[0089] A hexagonal groove is provided on the right side of the guide tube 36, and the transmission rod 412 is slidably connected in the hexagonal groove. The rubber sleeve 42 is in the shape of a bellows and is used for deflection during guidance.

[0090] Working principle: After the guiding sheath 1 enters the blood vessel 5, the sheath 1 is first pushed to move into the blood vessel 5. When the guiding head 41 needs to be adjusted to adjust the direction, the catheter 36 is pushed, which contacts the transmission rod 412 and pushes the rotating shaft 48 to move. When the push rod 47 on one side of the rotating shaft 48 contacts and abuts against the baffle 46, it is only necessary to rotate the catheter 36 and rotate it on the inner wall of the sheath 1 through the annular groove, and synchronously drive the rotating shaft 48 to rotate in the micro bearing 49, so that the baffle 46 can be deflected to change the deflection angle of the guiding head 41 through the ball 44, so as to achieve steering when crossing the blood vessel 5 and improve the guiding effect;

[0091] At the same time, after the catheter 36 is released, under the action of the return spring 411, the rotating shaft 48 and the micro bearing 49 are pulled to move on the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 43, so that the push rod 47 is out of contact with the baffle 46 to maintain a straight line when crossing.

[0092] The present invention provides a device for removing thrombi from cerebral blood vessels. There are many methods and approaches to implement the technical solution. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered as the protection scope of the present invention. All components not specified in this embodiment can be implemented by existing technologies.
