DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention discloses an auxiliary device for cardiovascular surgery, comprising a catheter 1, a first support assembly 2 and a second support assembly 3 installed at a distance at the front end of the catheter 1. The catheter 1 adopts an existing structure and can bend to a certain extent according to the force conditions. The first support assembly 2 and the second support assembly 3 are installed at a distance on the catheter 1, and the first support assembly 2 is arranged at a distance in front of the second support assembly 3. When the second support assembly 3 acts, the first support assembly 2 can guide the movement of the catheter 1, but the change of the main angle control is still achieved through the second support assembly 3.

[0019] Furthermore, the inner side of the catheter 1 is provided with an axially extending first airway 4. Of course, the axial extension here does not mean a completely straight extension. As needed, the slotted position can be avoided to facilitate inflation and deflation. Each group of first airways 4 corresponds to a group of first airbags 7, so that each group of first airbags 7 can be controlled separately. The front end of the catheter 1 is provided with a first slide groove 5 corresponding to the first support assembly 2. The first slide groove 5 is an annular groove and is provided on the outer side of the catheter 1. One end of the first airway 4 extends to the rear end of the catheter 1 and is connected to the air pump. The other end of the first airway 4 is connected to the first slide groove 5. The first support assembly 2 includes a first arc-shaped outer support plate 6, a first airbag 7, a first sliding ring 8, a first sliding tube 9, and a first elastic support device 10. The first sliding ring 8 is arranged on the outer side of the first slide groove 5 along the axial sliding of the catheter 1. The inner diameter of the first sliding ring 8 is adapted to the outer diameter of the first slide groove 5 of the catheter 1, which can ensure that the first sliding ring 8 is basically displaced along the axial direction.

[0020] A plurality of groups of first airbags 7 are evenly distributed around the catheter 1, the first sliding ring 8 is connected to the first arc-shaped outer support plate 6 through the first airbag 7, a first channel 11 is opened in the first sliding ring 8, one end of the first sliding tube 9 is slidingly sealed in the first airway 4, a sealing ring is arranged between the first sliding tube 9 and the first airway 4 to ensure sealing, the first sliding tube 9 is fixedly connected to the first sliding ring 8 and is connected to the first airbag 7 through the first channel 11 inside the first sliding ring 8, and a first elastic support device 10 is arranged between the first sliding ring 8 and the catheter 1.

[0021] The specific working process is as follows: at the beginning, the first airbag 7 is deflated, and the first arc-shaped outer support plate 6 is tightly attached to the first sliding ring 8 under the elastic force of the first airbag 7, and will not cause obstruction to the inner wall of the blood vessel. The catheter 1 is pushed to the specified position by manual or existing pushing devices. When the front end of the catheter 1 meets the tortuosity of the blood vessel, the expansion degree of each group of first airbags 7 is repeatedly adjusted to make the catheter 1 deflect at an angle under the pressure difference of each group of first airbags 7. When the deflection is consistent with the angle of the blood vessel tortuosity, the second support component 3 is stabilized and continuously pushed inward for a distance until the front end of the blood vessel passes the tortuosity of the blood vessel, and the first airbag 7 and the second support component 3 are released at will, and the catheter 1 is continuously pushed inward until it reaches the specified position.

[0022] In this embodiment, a ball groove 12 is provided on the inner side of the first sliding ring 8, a ball 13 is rolled and installed in the ball groove 12, the ball 13 is in contact with the catheter 1, and a groove 14 connected with the ball groove 12 is provided on the outer side of the first sliding ring 8, and the first airbag 7 can extend into the ball groove 12 after expansion. By evenly contacting the ball 13, when the first airbag 7 is not inflated, the ball 13 rolls and contacts with the catheter 1, reducing the friction between the catheter 1 and the first sliding ring 8, and the first elastic support device 10 can push the first sliding ring 8 to its original position, and the whole process is smoother.

[0023] In this embodiment, the first elastic support device 10 is a spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the first sliding tube 9, and the two ends of the spring are respectively fixedly connected to the first sliding ring 8 and the conduit 1. The device has a simple structure and can increase the stability of the structure when in use.

[0024] In this embodiment, a bellows expansion tube 15 is installed on the outside of the spring, and the two ends of the bellows expansion tube 15 are fixedly connected to the first slip ring 8 and the conduit 1 respectively. By providing the bellows expansion tube 15, impurities can be prevented from adhering to the spring, thereby ensuring the expansion performance of the spring and increasing the life of the structure.

[0025] Similar to the first support assembly 2, in this embodiment, the inner side of the catheter 1 is provided with an axially extending second airway 16, the front end of the catheter 1 is provided with a second slide groove 17 corresponding to the second support assembly 3, one end of the second airway 16 extends to the rear end of the catheter 1, and the other end of the second airway 16 is connected to the second slide groove 17; the second support assembly 3 includes a second arc-shaped outer support plate 18, a second airbag 19, a second sliding ring 20, a second sliding tube 21, and a second elastic support device 22, and the second sliding ring 20 slides along the axial direction of the catheter 1 It is arranged on the outside of the second slide groove 17, and multiple groups of second airbags 19 are evenly distributed around the catheter 1. The second slip ring 20 is connected to the second arc-shaped outer support plate 18 through the second airbag 19. A second channel 23 is opened in the second slip ring 20. One end of the second sliding tube 21 is slidingly sealed and arranged in the second air channel 16. The second sliding tube 21 is fixedly connected to the second slip ring 20 and is connected to the second airbag 19 through the second channel 23 on the inner side of the second slip ring 20. A second elastic support device 22 is arranged between the second slip ring 20 and the catheter 1.

[0026] The second airbags 19 disclosed in the present invention can be connected to the same air pump, and the expansion degrees of each group of second airbags 19 are exactly the same. The second support assembly 3 is mainly used to support the catheter 1 when it is pushed, so as to ensure the stability of the catheter 1 when it is pushed inward and will not affect the angle of the catheter 1.

[0027] In this embodiment, the front end of the catheter 1 is provided with a rounded corner 24, which can reduce the damage to the blood vessel wall caused by the catheter 1 when pushing. A sleeve handle 25 is installed on the outer side of the rear end of the catheter 1, and the sleeve handle 25 slides with the catheter 1 to facilitate pushing.

[0028] In this embodiment, the catheter 1 includes a catheter body 26, a front end tube 27, and a connecting tube 28 connecting the catheter body 26 and the front end tube 27. The two ends of the connecting tube 28 are detachably connected to the catheter body 26 and the front end tube 27, respectively, and the connecting tube 28 is located between the first support assembly 2 and the second support assembly 3. By replacing the connecting tube 28 of different lengths, the distance between the first support assembly 2 and the second support assembly 3 can be changed to select a suitable pushing interval. For example, when the distance between the first support assembly 2 and the second support assembly 3 is longer, the turning process of the front end of the catheter 1 is weaker, but the movement process of the catheter 1 can be made more stable, reducing the pushing pressure at the rear end of the catheter 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, the two ends of the connecting tube 28 are threadedly connected to the catheter body 26 and the front end tube 27 respectively. A transition tube 29 is fixedly provided on the outside of the connecting tube 28. A through hole 30 is provided on the transition tube 29 and penetrates the two ends of the transition tube 29. The through hole 30 connects the catheter body 26 and the first air channel 4 on the front end tube 27, thereby ensuring that the first air channel 4 can be normally inflated and deflated.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
