In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific value is to be interpreted as merely an example, and not a limitation. Other examples of the example embodiments can therefore have different values. It is to be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to like items in the drawings, and once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be discussed further in subsequent drawings.

[0059] Referring to Figures 1-4 As shown, in one aspect, the present application provides a locking ring locking unit 100 for pressing a locking ring 200 so that a suture 300 passing through the locking ring 200 is clamped and fixed. The locking ring 200 has a first state and a second state. When the locking ring 200 is in the first state, the suture 300 can be movably arranged in the locking ring 200, and when the locking ring 200 is in the second state, the suture 300 is clamped in the locking ring 200.

[0060] Further, the locking ring locking unit 100 includes a main body 10, a pressing member 20, and an eccentric member 30. The pressing member 20 and the eccentric member 30 are respectively arranged in the main body 10, and the eccentric member 30 rotates along a rotation axis 17 in the main body 10 to drive the pressing member 20 to move, and cooperates with the main body 10 to press the locking ring 200, so that the suture 300 passing through the locking ring 200 is clamped and fixed by the locking ring 200.

[0061] Further, the main body 10 is configured to have a receiving cavity 11 and a first hole 12, the first hole 12 communicates with the receiving cavity 11 and is used for the locking ring 200 and the suture 300 arranged in the locking ring 200 to enter and exit the receiving cavity 11.

[0062] Further, after the suturing of the tissue is completed, the suture 300 needs to be fixed, and the excess part of the suture 300 after the fixation is cut off, so as to complete the whole in-vivo suturing process. Since the in-vivo suturing is not convenient for direct knotting, the suture 300 is fixed by being clamped by the suture loop 200 after the suture 300 is passed through the suture loop 200 and the suture loop 200 is extruded, which is a convenient and efficient suture 300 fixing mode.

[0063] Specifically, after the suturing of the tissue is completed, the suture loop 200 and the suture 300 passing through the suture loop 200 are put into the accommodating cavity 11 through the first hole 12, and after the suture loop 200 is extruded in place and the passing suture 300 is clamped and fixed, the excess suture 300 is cut off, and the extruded suture loop 200 and the clamped and fixed suture 300 are taken out of the accommodating cavity 11 from the first hole 12.

[0064] Further, please refer to Figure 2 、 5 -6, the extrusion piece 20 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 11, and the extrusion piece 20 and the main body 10 are configured to form an extrusion cavity 40, the extrusion cavity 40 is communicated with the first hole 12, and is used for accommodating the suture loop 200.

[0065] The eccentric piece 30 is also arranged in the accommodating cavity 11 and abuts against a side of the extrusion piece 20 away from the extrusion cavity 40. Wherein, under the driving of the eccentric piece 30, the extrusion piece 20 has a first position and a second position. When the extrusion piece 20 is in the first position, the extrusion piece 20 is close to the rotation center of the eccentric piece 30, at this time, the cavity volume of the extrusion cavity 40 is maximum, and the suture loop 200 not being extruded can directly enter and exit the extrusion cavity 40 from the first hole 12. When the extrusion piece 20 is in the second position, the extrusion piece 20 is away from the rotation center, at this time, the cavity volume of the extrusion cavity 40 is compressed, so that the suture loop 200 accommodated in the extrusion cavity 40 is extruded in place and the passing suture 300 is clamped and fixed.

[0066] In the driving of the eccentric member 30, the suture loop 200 accommodated in the extrusion cavity 40 does not move relative to the suture loop locking unit 100 in the process of the extrusion member 20 moving from the first position to the second position, so that the increase of the distance between the suture loop 200 and the sutured tissue position can be avoided, which leads to the increase of the implant, causing the increase of the healing time of the sutured tissue; and the problem of the suture loop 200 moving away from the sutured tissue in the process of gradually clamping the suture 300, which has the risk of pulling the sutured tissue, is avoided, and the problems of the implanted suture 300 being too long and the implanted suture 300 retracting into the sutured tissue after cutting the suture 300, which causes the sutured tissue to not closely adhere, further increasing the healing time of the sutured tissue, are effectively solved.

[0067] Further, please refer to Figure 4 、 7 -8, the main body 10 includes a tube body 13 and a support member 14. The tube body 13 is configured to form the first hole 12. The support member 14 is arranged in the tube body 13 and defines the accommodation cavity 11 with the tube body 13.

[0068] Further, the support member 14 includes a support plate portion 141 and two limiting plate portions 142, and the two limiting plate portions 142 are oppositely arranged on the support plate portion 141 along the axial direction of the tube body 13 and configured to form a first limiting groove 143 with the support plate portion 141.

[0069] The extrusion member 20 is arranged in the first limiting groove 143 and defines the extrusion cavity 40 with the support plate portion 141, the two limiting plate portions 142, and the corresponding inner wall of the tube body 13. By movably arranging the extrusion member 20 in the first limiting groove 143, the extrusion member 20 can be limited and guided by the first limiting groove 143 when moving between the first position and the second position, so as to improve the movement accuracy of the extrusion member 20 and the extrusion efficiency of the suture loop 200.

[0070] Further, the eccentric member 30 is rotatably arranged on the side of the extrusion member 20 away from the support plate portion 141. When the extrusion member 20 is in the first position, the extrusion member 20 is away from the support plate portion 141, at this time, the cavity volume of the extrusion cavity 40 is the largest, and the unextruded suture loop 200 can smoothly enter and exit the extrusion cavity 40 from the first hole 12. When the extrusion member 20 is in the second position, the extrusion member 20 is close to the support plate portion 141, at this time, the cavity volume of the extrusion cavity 40 is compressed, so that the suture loop 200 accommodated in the extrusion cavity 40 is extruded in place, and the passing suture 300 is clamped and fixed.

[0071] Further, referring to Figure 2 , 5 Fig. 6, the locking ring locking unit 100 further comprises an elastic member 50, which is configured to drive the pressing member 20 to move from the second position to a third position, so that the locking ring 200 after being pressed in place can be withdrawn from the pressing cavity 40 together with the locked suture 300.

[0072] Further, the elastic member 50 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 11 and configured to drive the pressing member 20 to move away from the support plate portion 141, so that the pressing member 20 moves from the second position to the third position, so that the locking ring 200 after being pressed in place can be withdrawn from the first hole 12 faster after the suture is cut, or facilitate the pressing of the next locking ring 200.

[0073] In the embodiments of the present application, the elastic member 50 can have sufficient elastic driving force to drive the pressing member 20 to move from the second position to the third position. Wherein, the third position is the same as the first position, so that the locking ring locking unit 100 can be reused.

[0074] In the embodiments of the present application, the elastic member 50 can also have a certain elastic driving force to drive the pressing member 20 to move from the second position to the third position. Wherein, the third position is between the first position and the second position, and in the case that the pressing member 20 is in the third position, the locking ring 200 in the first state cannot enter the pressing cavity 40, and the locking ring 200 in the second state can exit the pressing cavity 40.

[0075] Further, referring to Figures 4-6 Fig. 7, the tube body 13 comprises an outer tube 131, an end plate 132 and a fixing member 133. The end plate 132 and the fixing member 133 are arranged at opposite ends of the outer tube 131 along the axial direction of the outer tube 131 to cooperate with the outer tube 131 to define the accommodating cavity 11. Wherein, the end plate 132 is configured to form the first hole 12.

[0076] Further, the fixing member 133 is connected with the support member 14 and is configured to form the first limiting portion 15. Specifically, the fixing member 133 is connected with the support plate portion 141 to form the first limiting portion 15. The pressing member 20 is configured to form a second limiting portion 21.

[0077] In the axial direction of the outer tube 131, the first limiting part 15 is away from the extrusion cavity 40, and the second limiting part 21 is close to the extrusion cavity 40. The opposite ends of the elastic member 50 are respectively limited and abut between the first limiting part 15 and the second limiting part 21, so that the one end of the extrusion member 20 away from the fixed member 133 is abutted to the inner face of the end plate 132 under the driving of the elastic member 50, so that the extrusion member 20 is also limited between the elastic member 50 and the end plate 132 in the axial direction of the outer tube 131, and therefore, under the limiting action of the first limiting groove 143, the extrusion member 20 can only be driven by the eccentric member 30 to move from the first position to the second position, and under the driving of the elastic member 50, from the second position to the first position, or from the second position to the third position close to the first position.

[0078] Further, please refer to Figures 5-6 , 9, the extrusion member 20 includes a first section 22 and a second section 23. The first section 22 and the corresponding support member 14 and the end plate 132 define the extrusion cavity 40. Specifically, the first section 22 and the corresponding support plate part 141, two limiting plate parts 142 and the end plate 132 define the extrusion cavity 40. The first hole 12 communicates with the extrusion cavity 40, and when the extrusion member 20 is in the second position, the extrusion member 20 blocks at least part of the first hole 12.

[0079] The second section 23 is close to the fixed member 133, and the second section 23 is configured to form the second limiting part 21. Specifically, the second section 23 includes a first plate part 231 and two second plate parts 232, the first plate part 231 is arranged opposite to the support plate part 141, and is close to the support plate part 141 under the driving of the eccentric member 30, two second plate parts 232 are respectively connected on the opposite sides of the first plate part 231, and together with the end face of the first section 22, the second limiting part 21 is configured to form the second limiting part 21, which is a limiting groove structure. Wherein, one end of the elastic member 50 corresponding to the second limiting part 21 is limited and abutted in the limiting groove.

[0080] Further, each of the second plate parts 232 corresponds to a limiting plate part 142, and the side of each of the second plate parts 232 away from the other second plate part 232 is attached to the corresponding limiting plate part 142, thereby increasing the area of mutual limiting of the extrusion member 20 and the first limiting groove 143, so that the extrusion member 20 is more stably moved in the first limiting groove 143 towards the direction close to or away from the support plate part 141.

[0081] Further, the eccentric member 30 is rotatably supported on the side of the first section 22 away from the pressing cavity 40, so that the eccentric member 30 can drive the pressing member 20 to move towards the support plate portion 141 to press the locking ring 200, so as to effectively press the locking ring 200 into place.

[0082] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , 4 , 8, the main body 10 is further configured with a second hole 16. The second hole 16 is used for the suture 300 extending out of the locking ring 200 to pass through, so that after the fixation of the suture 300 by the locking ring 200 is completed, the excess suture 300 after cutting can be taken out from the second hole 16.

[0083] Further, the support plate portion 141 is configured with a second limiting groove 144. The second limiting groove 144 is located on the side of the pressing cavity 40 away from the end plate 132, and the second hole 16 communicates with the groove bottom of the second limiting groove 144. The suture 300 extending out of the locking ring 200 will pass through the second limiting groove 144 and the second hole 16 in turn and extend out of the outer tube 131.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 5-6 , the locking ring locking unit 100 further comprises a first cutter 60. The first cutter 60 is arranged in the second limiting groove 144. When the pressing member 20 is in the second position, the first cutter 60 moves in the second limiting groove 144 towards the pressing cavity 40 and passes through the second hole 16 to cut the suture 300 extending out of the second hole 16.

[0085] Specifically, before cutting is completed, the suture 300 extending out of the second hole 16 is still in a straightened state, and when the first cutter 60 passes through the second hole 16, the cutting edge of the first cutter 60 will directly cut the suture 300, thereby completing the cutting of the excess suture 300.

[0086] Further, the elastic member 50 can be a spring, a metal spring piece, etc. made of medical grade material, and can be an elastic structure that drives the pressing member 20 to reset from the second position to the first position, or an elastic structure that moves from the second position to the third position close to the first position.

[0087] Preferably, in the embodiments of the present application, the elastic member 50 is a metal spring, so that the elastic member 50 can not only realize the reset movement of the extruding member 20 from the second position to the first position, or from the second position to the third position close to the first position, but also can resist the extruding member 20 towards the end plate 132 under the limiting action of the first limiting portion 15 and the second limiting portion 21, so that the pressing member cannot move along the axial direction of the outer tube 131.

[0088] Further, the end of the metal spring close to the first limiting portion 15 is pressed in the notch of the second limiting groove 144 at the same time, so as to limit the first cutter 60 from being separated from the second limiting groove 144, so that the metal spring can also limit the first cutter 60 at the same time, avoid the first cutter 60 from being separated from the second limiting groove 144, and avoid the first cutter 60 from sliding in the second limiting groove 144 at will, so that the suture 300 is cut off by the first cutter 60 before being clamped and fixed by the locking ring 200, causing the clamping and fixing of the suture 300 to be invalid.

[0089] Further, in the embodiments of the present application, after the extruding member 20 completes the extrusion of the locking ring 200, the first cutter 60 moves towards the extruding cavity 40 under the driving of external force, so as to cut the excess suture 300.

[0090] In the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figures 5-6 The locking ring locking unit 100 also includes a second cutter 70. The second cutter 70 is arranged on the side of the extruding member 20 towards the support plate portion 141, and the second cutter 70 moves synchronously with the extruding member 20, and after the extruding member 20 extrudes the locking ring 200 in place, the cutting edge of the second cutter 70 is close to the excess suture 300 extending out of the locking ring 200 and passing through the second hole 16. Under the further driving of the eccentric member 30, the extruding member 20 drives the second cutter 70 to continue to move, until the second cutter 70 cuts the excess suture 300.

[0091] Further, the second cutter 70 extends out of the extruding member 20 to block the locking thread ring 200 located in the extruding cavity 40 from extending out of the extruding cavity 40. Specifically, the second cutter 70 is closer to the support plate portion 141 relative to the extruding member 20. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the second cutter 70 can limit the side of the extruding cavity 40 away from the side of the end plate 132, so as to form a limiting cavity with the extruding cavity 40, thereby limiting the locking thread ring 200 located in the extruding cavity 40 from falling out of the extruding cavity 40, so that the locking thread ring 200 can be completely extruded in place when the extruding member 20 moves to the second position, so that the part of the suture 300 passing through the locking thread ring 200 is clamped and fixed, thereby increasing the clamping length of the suture 300 by the locking thread ring 200, and improving the stability of the suture 300.

[0092] Further, when the extruding member 20 is in the first position, the second cutter 70 is away from the second limiting groove 144; when the extruding member 20 is in the second position, the second cutter 70 enters the second limiting groove 144 and cuts the suture 300 passing through the second hole 16.

[0093] Specifically, when the extruding member 20 moves to the second position, the second cutter 70 will pass over the surface of the support plate portion 141 close to the extruding member 20 and enter the second limiting groove 144, thereby reducing the residual excess suture 300 passing through the locking thread ring 200, thereby reducing the amount of implant and improving the efficiency of complete healing of the sutured wound.

[0094] Further, referring to Figure 2 As shown, the extruding cavity 40 can also be provided with a limiting member 80. The limiting member 80 is provided on the extruding member 20 and / or the support plate portion 141, and the limiting member 80 is used to guide the locking thread ring 200 entering the extruding cavity 40 to be placed in the axial direction of the outer tube 131. Thus, the residual excess suture 300 passing through the locking thread ring 200 is further reduced.

[0095] Further, the limiting member 80 is provided in the extruding cavity 40 in the axial direction of the outer tube 131 to limit the first central axis of the locking thread ring 200 entering the extruding cavity 40 to be parallel to the second central axis of the outer tube 131, thereby effectively improving the parallel placement of the locking thread ring 200 in the extruding cavity 40 in the direction of the second central axis.

[0096] In the embodiments of the present application, the limiting member 80 is a flexible member, which is elastically deformed during the movement of the pressing member 20 from the first position to the second position.

[0097] Further, the flexible member has a certain buffering effect.

[0098] In the embodiments of the present application, the limiting member 80 is an elastic member, which is elastically deformed during the movement of the pressing member 20 from the first position to the second position.

[0099] Further, the elastic member has a buffering effect, and cooperates with the elastic member 50 to drive the pressing member 20 to reset from the second position to the first position, or to move from the second position to the third position close to the first position.

[0100] In the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 2 The limiting member 80 is a limiting column, and the pressing member 20 or the support plate portion 141 is provided with a avoiding hole 18 corresponding to the limiting member 80. During the movement of the pressing member 20 from the first position to the second position, the limiting member 80 enters the corresponding avoiding hole 18.

[0101] Further, the limiting column and the avoiding hole 18 have a guiding effect, so that the pressing member 20 can move more accurately between the first position and the second position, or between the second position and the third position close to the first position.

[0102] Further, referring to Figures 2-5 The first hole 12 includes a first sub-hole 121 and a second sub-hole 122. The first sub-hole 121 can be used for the lock wire ring 200 in the first state or the second state to pass through, and the second sub-hole 122 can be used for the lock wire ring 200 in the second state to pass through.

[0103] The lock wire ring 200 in the first state has a hollow through hole 210, and the suture 300 passes through the lock wire ring 200 through the through hole 210. The through hole 210 of the lock wire ring 200 in the second state is closed because the lock wire ring 200 is pressed into place, so the lock wire ring 200 in the second state is in a flat structure.

[0104] Specifically, the first sub-hole 121 and the second sub-hole 122 are in communication with each other and communicate the extrusion cavity 40 with the outside respectively. The first sub-hole 121 has a first cross-sectional area greater than that of the second sub-hole 122, and the locking wire ring 200 in the first state cannot pass through the second sub-hole 122 to enter or exit the extrusion cavity 40, while the locking wire ring 200 in the second state can exit the extrusion cavity 40 from the first sub-hole 121 or the second sub-hole 122.

[0105] Further, the second sub-hole 122 is a rectangular hole or a trapezoidal hole, the locking wire ring 200 in the first state cannot enter or exit the extrusion cavity 40 from the second sub-hole 122, and the locking wire ring 200 in the second state can directly exit the extrusion cavity 40 from the second sub-hole. The first sub-hole 121 is one of a semicircular hole, a semi-elliptical hole, a rectangular hole, and a trapezoidal hole, and the first sub-hole 121 and the second sub-hole 122 are in communication so that the locking wire ring 200 in the first state can enter the extrusion cavity 40 from the first sub-hole 121 or from the communication between the first sub-hole 121 and the second sub-hole 122.

[0106] Therefore, by providing the first hole 12 with a special-shaped structure, the risk of the locking wire ring 200 exiting the extrusion cavity 40 can be reduced while ensuring that the locking wire ring 200 smoothly enters the extrusion cavity 40 from the first sub-hole 121, thereby reducing the operation difficulty. After extrusion is completed, the locking wire ring 200 in the second state can be conveniently exited from the extrusion cavity 40 through the first sub-hole 121 or the second sub-hole 122, thereby improving the efficiency of the locking wire ring 200 in the second state exiting the extrusion cavity 40.

[0107] Further, the first sub-hole 121 is located on one side of the second sub-hole 122, so that after the locking wire ring 200 in the first state enters the extrusion cavity 40 from the first sub-hole 121, the locking wire ring locking unit 100 can be deflected to move the locking wire ring 200 to the area of the extrusion cavity 40 corresponding to the second sub-hole 122, thereby reducing the risk of the locking wire ring 200 exiting the extrusion cavity 40.

[0108] On the other hand, referring to Figure 10 The locking wire ring locking unit 100 is provided in the locking wire ring locking device 1000. Therefore, the locking wire ring locking device 1000 has the beneficial effects of any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0109] Further, the locking and cutting device 1000 further comprises an operating handle 400 and a connecting pipe 500. The connecting pipe 500 is connected between the operating handle 400 and the main body 10 of the locking ring locking unit 100, and is located at the end of the main body 10 away from the first hole 12, for connecting the operating handle 400 and the locking ring locking unit 100 together, so that when suturing the cutting thread in the body, the locking ring locking unit 100 and part of the connecting pipe 500 can be stretched out of the patient's body, and the operating handle 400 can be held to operate.

[0110] Further, please refer to Figures 5-6 , 10, the locking ring locking unit 100 further comprises a pulling member 90. The pulling member 90 passes through the connecting pipe 500 and is connected between the operating handle 400 and the eccentric member 30. The pulling member 90 drives the eccentric member 30 to rotate under the drive of the operating handle 400 to drive the extrusion member 20 to move from the first position to the second position.

[0111] Specifically, the operating handle 400 can be a trigger type operating handle 400, wherein the trigger type operating handle 400 comprises a fixed arm 410 and a movable arm 420, the movable arm 420 is rotatably hinged to the fixed arm 410, and the pulling member 90 passing through the connecting pipe 500 is connected to the movable arm 420. By cocking the movable arm 420 close to the fixed arm 410, the eccentric member 30 is driven to move, thereby driving the extrusion member 20 to move from the first position to the second position, and by releasing the movable arm 420, the extrusion member 20 is driven to reset from the second position to the first position, or from the second position to the third position close to the first position, under the drive of the elastic member 50.

[0112] Alternatively, the operating handle 400 can also be a rotary operating handle 400, wherein the rotary operating handle 400 can comprise an outer housing, a hand screw, a lead screw and a sliding block. The outer housing is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 500 away from the locking ring locking unit 100, the sliding block and the lead screw are respectively arranged in the outer housing, and the sliding block is threadedly connected to the lead screw, and the hand screw is rotatably arranged on the outer housing and extends into the outer housing to be connected to the lead screw.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present application, the screw rod rotates in the shell and moves along the axial line of the rotation axis 17, and the slider moves along the axial line of the rotation axis 17. The pulling member 90 passing through the connecting pipe 500 is connected to the slider. The screw rod is driven to rotate by rotating the hand knob, so that the slider moves along the axial line of the screw rod, thereby driving the pulling member 90 to drive the eccentric member 30 to move, and further driving the pressing member 20 to move between the first position and the second position.

[0114] In the embodiment of the present application, the slider is fixed in the shell and remains stationary relative to the shell. The screw rod rotates under the rotation of the hand knob and moves along the axial line of the rotation axis 17. The pulling member 90 passing through the connecting pipe 500 is connected to the end of the screw rod away from the hand knob. The screw rod is driven to rotate by rotating the hand knob, so that the screw rod moves along the axial line of the rotation axis 17, thereby driving the pulling member 90 to drive the eccentric member 30 to move, and further driving the pressing member 20 to move between the first position and the second position.

[0115] Further, the fixing member 133 is provided with a fixing hole 134, and the end of the connecting pipe 500 away from the operating handle 400 is inserted and fixed in the fixing hole 134.

[0116] Further, the eccentric member 30 is rotatably abutted on the side of the pressing member 20 away from the pressing cavity 40 through the rotation shaft 17, and the rotation shaft 17 is fixed in the inner tube 131.

[0117] Further, referring to Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the eccentric member 30 is provided with a limiting hole 31 and an avoiding groove 32. The limiting hole 31 is away from the rotation shaft 17 and communicates with the avoiding groove 32. The limiting hole 31 is used for limiting the limiting connection end of the pulling member 90 passing through the limiting hole 31 and being accommodated in the avoiding groove 32, and the opening of the avoiding groove 32 faces the pressing member 20.

[0118] Specifically, by setting the limiting hole 31 away from one end of the rotating shaft 17, more effort can be saved when pulling the eccentric piece 30 to move. And by setting the avoiding slot 32 on the eccentric piece 30 to accommodate the pulling piece 90, the pulling piece 90 can be avoided from being clamped between the eccentric piece 30 and the extruding piece 20, so that the pulling piece 90 can be stably pulled to make the eccentric piece 30 stably drive the extruding piece 20 to move from the first position to the second position, and extrude the lock wire ring 200 from the first state to the second state.
