[0002] Laparoscopic trocars are mainly used for creating pneumoperitoneum and establishing a surgical channel in the patient's abdominal cavity during minimally invasive surgery. During the puncture operation, the puncture cone cooperates with the puncture cannula for puncture; after the puncture is completed, the puncture cone needs to be withdrawn from the puncture cannula. After traditional laparoscopic surgery, it is difficult to suture the surgical incision, and problems such as abdominal wall incision bleeding, hematoma, infection, and trocar hernia are likely to occur when using ordinary suture methods. A large number of instruments are used during the suture process, which not only makes the operation cumbersome, reduces the surgical efficiency, but also increases the surgical risk.

The upper fork opening communicates with the second wire passing channel. A third hinge shaft is supported in the upper fork opening. Branches of the first traction wire passing through the second wire passing channel bypass the third hinge shaft and then extend to the needle feeding assembly. Two outer extending ends of the third hinge shaft are respectively hinged to the first ends of the two inclined arm assemblies; Two lower fork arms are arranged on the lower arm. A lower fork opening is arranged between the two lower fork arms. The lower fork opening communicates with the first wire passing channel. A fourth hinge shaft is supported in the lower fork opening.

The puncture needles that can be classified and connected on the needle delivery assembly can be fixed in the early stage, so that it can move to the designated position. In the early stage of puncture, it can push the puncture needle to extend outward for puncture. After puncturing the fascia layer, the puncture needle continues to extend outward until it punctures the insertion mating part on the needle collecting part. The puncture needle stays on the insertion mating part and separates from it when the needle delivery assembly retracts. After the needle delivery assembly is reset, the deployment structure retracts into the axial hole, which is convenient to be taken out through the puncture hole along with the sleeve, while the puncture needle is taken out along with the needle collecting part, and at the same time, the suture can be pulled out. The first traction wire provides a pulling force through tension, which can provide an outward puncture thrust during puncture. The second traction wire provides a pulling force through tension, which can provide a pulling force for the needle delivery assembly to retract and reset, and the pulling force direction for the needle delivery assembly is stable through tension, and the pulling force directly acts on the moving direction, so the needle delivery assembly has good stability and smooth movement. The traction wire can be deployed and folded along with the deployment mechanism, and is easy to be stored in the sleeve or the mandrel and can pass through the puncture hole. With the present invention, it can facilitate rapid puncture, the puncture path is short, which is convenient for precise operation. By reducing tissue damage and shortening the operation time, the occurrence of puncture hole complications can be reduced, and there is no incisional hernia after the operation, reducing the pain of the patient during the operation. At the same time, it also helps the patient's rapid recovery after the operation, shortens the hospital stay, helps shorten the patient's postoperative recovery period, and reduces the infection rate and pain.

[0025] See Figures 1 to 14 , an embodiment of an abdominal puncture suturing device. An abdominal puncture suturing device includes a cannula 100, a mandrel 200, a deployment mechanism 300, a needle delivery assembly 400, a traction assembly 600, and a needle collection member 700. The cannula 100 is provided with an axially oriented hole 110 having an upper end opening and a side hole 120 disposed distally, wherein the axially oriented hole 110 is for installing the mandrel 200, and the side hole 120 allows the deployment mechanism 300 to extend and retract.

[0026] The mandrel 200 is slidably disposed within the axially oriented hole 110. The mandrel 200 can slide axially relative to the axially oriented hole 110, and an axial thrust can be applied to the deployment mechanism 300 axially. The deployment mechanism 300 is disposed within the axial hole 110 and has its upper end connected to the core rod 200. It includes a pair of inclined support arm assemblies 310 that can expand and contract through the side holes 120. Among them, the two inclined support arm assemblies 310 are configured to converge within the axial hole 110 in the retracted state and extend upward convergently in the deployed state. They can be accommodated within the axial hole 110 in the retracted state and can travel through the puncture hole with the sleeve 100. When reaching the desired position, they can be deployed. Among them, the inclined support arm 311 in the deployed state can constrain the delivery direction of the needle delivery assembly 400. The needle delivery assembly 400 is telescopically disposed on the inclined support arm assembly 310. Through the telescopic mating structure, the needle delivery assembly 400 can extend outward in the desired direction. Moreover, in the early stage of retraction, it is convenient to travel within the sleeve 100. After the puncture is completed in the later stage, it can be retracted for convenient storage. Its head is connected to the puncture needle 500 through a separable connection structure, which is used to drive the puncture needle 500 to puncture and separate after the puncture. When delivering the puncture needle 500, it can apply a thrust to the puncture so that it can puncture human tissue. When the puncture is completed, it can be separated from the needle delivery assembly 400, leaving the puncture needle 500 at the designated position, and then leaving the traction line segment or thread on the puncture needle 500.

[0027] The traction assembly 600 includes a first traction wire 610 and a second traction wire 620. The distal ends of the first traction wire 610 and the second traction wire 620 are both connected to the needle delivery assembly 400. The first traction wire 610 is used to drive the needle delivery assembly 400 to extend outward, and the second traction wire 620 is used to drive its retraction. The proximal ends of the two traction wires both pass through the axial hole 110 of the sleeve 100. The travel and retraction of the needle delivery assembly 400 can be manipulated through the traction wires. The traction wires can wind around the deployment mechanism 300, which is convenient for layout. At the same time, the structure of the traction wires is relatively simple, and they can withstand a large traction force during travel and puncture, ensuring the reliability of puncturing and retracting the puncture needle 500.

[0028] The needle collecting member 700 is fixed to the core rod 200 and is provided with an insertion mating portion 710 for the puncture needle 500 to stay. Through this needle collecting member 700, the puncture needle 500 can be punctured after penetrating the tissue. After the puncture needle 500 penetrates and stays on the insertion mating portion 710, it is stuck in the insertion mating portion 710. Through the cooperative removal, it is then pulled out through the puncture hole, and the suture 800 mounted on the puncture needle 500 is led out for knotting operation.

[0029] Among them, the unfolding mechanism 300 can have an unfolded state and a folded state. In the unfolded state, the puncture needle 500 in the folded state can be unfolded in the abdominal cavity. After entering the abdominal cavity, in the unfolded state, the puncture needle 500 deviates from the axis by a large distance at the puncture hole, and at the same time, the position of the pre-puncture in the abdominal cavity is fixed. On the circumference, the puncture needle 500, that is, on both sides of the unfolding mechanism 300, its circumferential relative position is stable.

[0030] During the puncture process, the puncture needle 500 is guided so that the puncture needle 500 penetrates into the tissue at a desired angle. Specifically, in some embodiments, the unfolding mechanism 300 includes: A pair of upper arms 320, the first ends of which are both hinged to the core rod 200, and the second ends are hinged to the first ends of the inclined arm assembly 310. After entering the puncture hole, the unfolding mechanism 300 unfolds, and the two upper arms 320 unfold. During the suturing process, the two unfolded upper arms 320 can be used for positioning, so that the entire upper arm 320 is closely attached to the wall surface of the abdominal cavity, that is, the end face of the inner opening of the puncture hole, thereby axially positioning the entire suturing device, improving the axial accuracy during puncture. At the same time, the two upper arms 320 have a large contact area with the abdominal wall, and the abdominal wall can provide a large supporting force for the unfolding mechanism 300, reducing the damage to non-suturing positions.

[0031] A pair of lower arms 330, the first ends of which are hinged to the sleeve 100 through, specifically, the first ends are connected to each other through a hinge structure, and the hinge structure is connected to the sleeve 100 to form the hinge of the lower arm 330 and the sleeve 100. The connection method of the hinge structure and the sleeve 100 can be fixed connection, abutment, etc. to constrain the position of the hinge structure. After the hinge position is constrained, it can force the unfolding mechanism 300 to unfold or fold; the second ends of the two lower arms 330 are hinged to the second ends of the inclined arm assembly 310. The arm length of the upper arm 320 is less than the arm length of the lower arm 330; the entire unfolding mechanism 300 forms a trapezoidal structure after unfolding. Of course, according to clinical needs, different differences in the arm lengths of the upper arm 320 and the lower arm 330 can be selected as needed, so that the waistline of the trapezoid, that is, the angle of the inclined arm 311, can meet the expected depth and the appropriate distance between the needle insertion hole and the puncture hole. If this distance is too small, the suturing effect is poor; if it is too large, it will increase the pain of the patient during suturing. The inclined arm 311 can adjust the width and thickness of the suture according to the selected requirements, and has a smaller puncture path and a better suturing effect under the condition of meeting the puncture depth.

[0032] Among them, when the mechanism composed of two upper arms 320, two oblique arm assemblies 310 and two lower arms 330 is under stress at both ends, the two oblique arm assemblies 310 can extend outward, and at the same time, the angle of the oblique arm 311 can be swung, and after swinging to the desired position, they can be arranged at an angle and converge and extend upward to form an inclined guide track, which can obliquely puncture the tissue. During oblique puncture, the axial force is concentrated during linear advancement, the penetration efficiency is high, the damage is more limited, and the movement path is short. At the same time, due to the inclined linear puncture, the tissues on both sides of the needle rod are more uniform, avoiding asymmetric squeezing of the tissue. The puncture needle 500 and the puncture rod 410 travel along a straight path, which is more direct and smooth. Due to the linear puncture characteristics of the puncture needle 500 and the puncture rod 410, the reaction of the surrounding tissue to them is also more linear and uniform.

[0033] In some embodiments, the hinge structure includes a first hinge shaft 331, and both ends of the first hinge shaft 331 are supported on the sleeve 100 to achieve the stability of the hinge position. The first ends of the two lower arms 330 are hinged through the first hinge shaft 331, and the first hinge shaft 331 is sleeved with a first bushing 332 to separate the two lower arms 330, and both ends of the first hinge shaft 331 are supported on the side wall of the sleeve 100; The distal end of the second traction wire 620 is divided into two branches, which respectively bypass the first bushing 332 and extend to both sides, and extend to the needle delivery assembly 400 through the first wire passage 323 of the corresponding lower support arm 330.

[0034] It can be understood that, whether in the folded state or the unfolded state, the position of the first hinge shaft 331 is constrained. When unfolding, it is compressed, and then the lower arm 330 is swung to both sides, and then the second end of the oblique arm 311 is pulled to unfold. When folding, it can limit the movement of the second end of the lower arm 330. After the lower arm 330 swings centripetally, the second end of the oblique arm 311 is pulled to fold toward the center. The first bushing 332 can be arranged to keep the two lower arms 330 spaced apart to avoid friction between the two lower arms 330, that is, to form a scissor effect, to avoid damage to the suture 800. At the same time, the first bushing 332 can also be used for the second traction wire 620 for traction to be wound out, so as to change the routing and force transmission direction of the second traction wire 620. The second traction wire 620 has two branches, and the whole can be subjected to force and pull the needle delivery assembly 400 at the same time, and its movement synchronization is good.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first end of the upper arm 320 is hinged to the installation groove 210 at the distal end of the core rod 200 through a second hinge shaft 321, and a second bushing 322 is provided between the first ends of the two upper arms 320; the distal end of the first traction wire 610 is divided into two branches, which respectively bypass the second bushing 322 and then extend to the needle feeding assembly 400 through the second wire passing channels 334 of the corresponding upper arms 320; a through hole 211 for the traction wire to pass through is provided at the bottom of the installation groove 210. The arrangement of the second bushing 322 enables the two upper arms 320 to be kept at intervals, avoiding the friction between the arm surfaces of the two upper arms 320, that is, forming a scissor effect and avoiding damage to the suture 800 or the traction wire. At the same time, the second bushing 322 can also be used for the first traction wire 610 for traction to wind out, realizing the change of the wire routing and force transmission direction of the first traction wire 610. A through hole 211 for the traction wire to pass through is provided at the bottom of the installation groove 210, and the proximal part of the traction wire is led out through the inner hole of the core rod 200. The first traction wire 610 has two branches, and the whole can be stressed to traction the needle feeding assembly 400 at the same time, and its motion synchronism is good.

[0036] In some embodiments, a support frame 230 is provided at the distal end of the core rod 200. The bottom wall of the support frame 230 supports the side walls at both sides, and an installation groove 210 is formed between the two side walls. It can be understood that the support frame 230 can support the hinge shaft, and at the same time, the two sides of the installation groove 210, that is, the support side walls, can limit the upper arm 320 in the axial direction of the hinge shaft, and the bottom of the installation groove 210 can limit the upper arm 320, so that after unfolding, its unfolded angle position is stable.

[0037] In some embodiments, the two ends of the second hinge shaft 321 are slidably matched with the limit sliding grooves 140 on the inner wall of the sleeve 100 and can penetrate out of the side wall of the installation groove 210; through the limit sliding grooves 140, the first hinge shaft 331 can be restricted, so that the hinged position of the two upper arms 320 remains centered all the time, and the two upper arms 320 can move relative to the first hinge shaft 331.

[0038] In some embodiments, the inclined arm assembly 310 includes a pair of inclined arms 311, and a wire passing gap 312 is formed between the two inclined arms 311; the axial tracks 313 provided on each inclined arm 311 are used for slidably matching with the puncture rod 410 of the needle feeding assembly 400. Among them, Figure 10Among them, the axial track 313 shown may be a linear guide hole provided on the inclined support arm 311 and extending along its long axis. A needle feeding assembly 400 is slidably fitted in the linear guide hole. The axial track 313 can accommodate the needle feeding assembly 400, can accommodate the puncture needle 500, and guide the puncture needle 500 during its advancement. Additionally, the axial track 313 may also be in a groove shape, which is used to constrain the puncture rod 410 and guide the puncture rod 410. The two ends of two sutures 800 can be hung on a pair of inclined support arms 311. The entire stapler can hang at least two sutures 800 and can achieve at least double-line suturing.

[0039] Furthermore, axial limit holes 314 communicating with the axial track 313 are provided on two adjacent sides of the inclined support arm 311. A limit protrusion 401 extending outward through the axial limit hole 314 is provided on the rod body of the puncture rod 410. The outer extending end of the axial limit protrusion 401 forms a traction wire connection part. By providing the axial limit holes 314 and making the axial limit protrusion 401 extend outward, the traction wire can traction the puncture needle 500 on the side of the puncture rod 410. At the same time, the axial limit holes 314 can constrain the extreme position of the movement of the limit protrusion 401. Further, two adjacent axial limit protrusions 401 are integrally formed and are both connected to the traction wire through one connection position. With this structure, the structure can be simplified, and at the same time, the synchronous movement of the two puncture rods 410 can be ensured, and eccentric loading can be prevented.

[0040] In some embodiments, two upper fork arms are provided at the second end of the upper support arm 320. An upper fork opening 324 is provided between the two upper fork arms. The upper fork opening 324 communicates with the second wire passing channel 334. A third hinge shaft 325 is supported in the upper fork opening 324. A branch of the first traction wire 610 passing through the second wire passing channel 334 bypasses the third hinge shaft 325 and then extends to the needle feeding assembly 400. The two outer extending ends of the third hinge shaft 325 are respectively hinged to the first ends of the two inclined support arms 311 of the inclined support arm assembly 310. With this structure, it can provide a passing channel for the first traction wire 610. At the same time, the first traction wire 610 can be constrained by the upper fork opening 324. The hinge shaft part in the upper fork opening 324 can also provide the winding requirement of the first traction wire 610. At the same time, a gap can be formed between the two inclined support arms 311.

[0041] The lower arm 330 is provided with two lower fork arms, and a lower fork opening 33 is arranged between the two lower fork arms. The lower fork opening 33 is in communication with the first wire passing channel 323. A fourth hinge shaft 335 is supported within the lower fork opening 33. A branch of the second traction wire 620 passing through the first wire passing channel 323 bypasses the fourth hinge shaft 335 and then extends to the needle feeding assembly 400. The two outer extending ends of the fourth hinge shaft 335 are respectively hinged to the second ends of the two inclined arms 311 of the inclined arm assembly 310. With this structure, it can provide a passing channel for the second traction wire 620. At the same time, the second traction wire 620 can be constrained by the lower fork opening 33. The hinge shaft part in the lower fork opening 33 can also provide the winding requirement of the second traction wire 620. Meanwhile, a gap for the traction wire to pass through can be formed between the two inclined arms 311. The wire passing channel can be formed by structures such as a cut groove, a cut plane, a notch or a hole, or can be composed of multiple sections or formed by a combination of a cut groove, a cut plane, a notch or a hole to form a passage for the traction wire to pass through.

[0042] Before puncture, the separable connection structure can preliminarily fix the puncture needle 500. During puncture, a thrust is applied to the puncture needle 500, and the axes of the puncture needle 500 and the puncture rod 410 are aligned and the axial thrust can be transmitted. When the puncture rod 410 retreats, it can be separated from the puncture needle 500, causing it to remain on the needle collecting member 700. In some embodiments, it can be connected by magnetic adsorption to form a separable connection structure, and can also be connected in the form of an adhesive elastic buckle or an elastic chuck, etc. Of course, a break connection structure can also be provided between the puncture needle 500 and the puncture rod 410 for connection, which will break overload when being pulled.

[0043] Specifically, in some embodiments, the puncture needle 500 includes a tapered needle tip 510, a needle body 520, and a first insertion portion 550 provided at the tail end of the needle body 520. The needle body 520 is provided with barbs 530 and threading holes 540 around its circumference, and the side wall is provided with threading holes 540 for fixing the end of the suture 800. The end of the suture 800 can pass through this hole and be relatively fixed to the threading hole 540 through a knot. The insertion portion provided at the tail end of the needle body 520 is used for axially detachable connection with the second insertion portion at the head of the puncture rod 410 of the needle feeding assembly 400. Through the barbs 530, the puncture needle 500 is not easily detached after being inserted into the insertion and cooperation portion 710, improving the pull-off force and separating the puncture needle 500 from the puncture rod 410. The tail end of the needle body 520 is provided with a tenon, a slot or an insertion hole, etc. adapted to the head of the puncture rod 410; as Figure 4 shown, the second insertion portion at the front section of the puncture rod 410 is a tenon in the shape of a rod, and the adapted first insertion portion 550 is a socket or a slot. Figure 4In this case, the first insertion part 550 is a slot, which axially extends and intersects with the wire threading hole 540. By adopting this method, it is convenient to process the wire threading hole 540 with a smaller aperture. The depth of the wire threading part of the wire threading hole 540 is relatively shallow. At the same time, the lateral opening of the slot can not only observe the insertion state of the second insertion part, but also facilitate the quick wire threading and fixing of the end of the suture 800. The axially detachable connection can not only initially hold and fix the puncture needle 500 in the early stage, but also provide sufficient axial thrust during puncture. When separating, the first insertion part 550 in the insertion state is separated from the second insertion part to achieve separation.

[0044] In some embodiments, a wire passing window 130 is provided in the upper section of the sleeve 100, and a wire hanging post 220 is provided on the side wall of the core rod 200. The wire hanging post 220 is used to hang the suture 800. Both ends of the suture 800 are led out through the wire passing window 130. The two ends of the suture 800 extend downward and are connected to the corresponding puncture needles 500. For example, among the four puncture needles 500 distributed in a matrix, the two puncture needles 500 located on the long side of the rectangle are respectively connected to both ends of the same suture 800. In the initial stage of puncture, the suture 800 can be hung on the wire hanging post 220 through the wire passing window 130. As the relative position between the sleeve 100 and the core rod 200 is adjusted, the wire hanging post 220 moves along with the sleeve 100, and the suture 800 slips off the wire hanging post 220. Due to the adjustment of the relative position between the sleeve 100 and the core rod 200, it can thus adapt to the unfolding and puncture of the unfolding structure, with coordinated movement rhythm. In the early stage of puncture, the suture 800 can be well accommodated, the suture 800 is arranged more smoothly, not easily knotted and avoiding jamming of the suture 800, and in the later stage, the suture 800 can be released to enable it to complete puncture.

[0045] In some embodiments, the suture 800 can also be pre-installed. During production and pre-installation, the puncture device further includes the suture 800. Both ends of the suture 800 are led out through the wire passing window 130. The two ends of the suture 800 extend downward and are connected to the corresponding puncture needles 500. The wire hanging post 220 can be arranged in a hole in the inner wall of the core rod 200 and extend upward in the hole. The hole can be a square hole or a round hole, etc.

[0046] In some embodiments, the piercing mating part 710 is made of rubber, elastic plastic or fabric. After the puncture needle 500 pierces, it can have a large frictional force with the puncture needle 500, enabling the puncture needle 500 to stay. Of course, barbs 530 provided on the puncture needle 500 can better hook and have a high anti-retreat property.

[0047] In some embodiments, it further includes a puncture tube 900, which is sleeved outside the sleeve 100; both between the puncture tube 900 and the sleeve 100 and between the sleeve 100 and the core rod 200 are circumferentially fixedly connected. Specifically, protrusions and corresponding limiting grooves can be adopted, and the protrusions can be pin nails or convex ribs 101, etc.Figure 1 As shown, the protrusion provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 100 is a convex rib 101, which can be integrally formed on the pipe wall; the puncture tube 900 is provided with a puncture window 910 for the puncture needle 500 to pass through. The puncture tube 900 is used for abdominal wall puncture. At the same time, during suturing, its inner hole is used to form a channel for the stapler to enter and exit.

[0048] In some embodiments, a limiting portion 121 is formed on the lower side wall of the side hole 120 to limit the rotation of the lower support arm. Through this structure, the rotation of the lower support arm 330 can be limited, so that its position is stable after expansion.

[0049] With the above solution, the deployment mechanism 300 can be retracted into the axial hole 110. The sleeve 100 can be inserted into and taken out through the puncture hole. The side hole 120 is used for the deployment mechanism 300 to extend out. When the deployment mechanism 300 is deployed, the two inclined support arm assemblies 310 can converge and extend upward, so that the needle feeding assembly 400 moves to a designated position. The puncture needles 500 that can be classified and connected on the needle feeding assembly 400 can be fixed in the early stage, so that they move to the designated position. In the early stage of puncture, the puncture needles 500 can be pushed outwards to perform puncture. After puncturing the fascia layer, the puncture needles 500 continue to extend outwards until they puncture the insertion matching portion 710 on the needle collecting member 700. The puncture needles 500 stay on the insertion matching portion 710 and are separated from the needle feeding assembly 400 when the needle feeding assembly 400 retracts. After the needle feeding assembly 400 is reset, the deployment structure retracts into the axial hole 110, which is convenient for taking out through the puncture hole along with the sleeve 100, and the puncture needles 500 are taken out along with the needle collecting member 700, and at the same time, the suture 800 can be pulled out. The first traction wire 610 can provide an outward puncture thrust during puncture, and the second traction wire 620 can provide a pulling force when the needle feeding assembly 400 retracts and resets. The traction wires can be deployed and folded along with the deployment mechanism 300, and are easy to be stored in the sleeve 100 or the core rod 200 and can pass through the puncture hole. By adopting the present invention, it can facilitate rapid puncture, the puncture path is short, which is convenient for precise operation. By reducing tissue damage and shortening the operation time, the occurrence of puncture hole complications can be reduced, and there is no incisional hernia after the operation, which reduces the pain of the patient during the operation. At the same time, it also helps the patient to recover quickly after the operation, shortens the hospitalization time, helps to shorten the postoperative recovery period of the patient, and reduces the infection rate and pain.

[0050] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalent technologies, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
