[0191] II. Light weight and operational convenience
[0192] Reducing physician fatigue: Titanium alloy has a density of 60% of stainless steel, reducing the weight of the liposuction needle by 30%-40%, improving the stability of single-handed operation for physicians, and being particularly suitable for long-term surgery.
[0193] High strength and toughness: The bending strength reaches 900-1200 MPa, reducing the deformation or fracture of the needle during puncture and reducing the rate of instrument loss.
[0194] III. Optimization of clinical effects
[0195] Low-temperature conduction characteristics: Low thermal conductivity (1 / 5 of stainless steel), reducing thermal damage to tissues during surgery, and shortening the swelling resolution time after surgery by 2-3 days.
[0196] Compatibility expansion: Supports surface modification (such as DLC coating, antibacterial plating), further improving the efficiency and safety of liposuction.
[0197] In one specific embodiment, the cannula assembly includes a cannula 3, wherein,
[0198] The cannula is used to form a liposuction space at a liposuction site.
[0199] The cannula is provided in a set with the liposuction needle.
[0200] Specifically, the beneficial effects include:
[0201] I. Improved precision and stability of surgical operation
[0202] Standardized spatial positioning
[0203] The cannula 3 pre-establishes a fixed channel at the liposuction site, forms a stable liposuction space, avoids tissue displacement or depth deviation caused by direct puncture of the liposuction needle, reduces the positioning error from ±2 mm to within ±0.5 mm, and is especially suitable for fine parts (such as the face and neck).
[0204] Reducing tissue damage
[0205] The set design makes the liposuction needle slide along the inner wall of the cannula, avoiding direct contact of the needle with non-target tissues (such as blood vessels and nerves), reducing intraoperative bleeding by 30%-40%, and reducing the incidence of postoperative ecchymosis to less than 5%.
[0206] II. Optimization of surgical efficiency and safety
[0207] Simplified operation process
[0208] After the cannula 3 is punctured to form a channel, the liposuction needle can be quickly inserted and replaced, and the single-site operation time is shortened by 40%-50%, reducing the risk of anesthesia exposure.
[0209] Enhanced risk controllability
[0210] The thickness and material (such as high-strength polycarbonate) of the cannula wall can buffer the puncture force, reducing the risk of penetrating the abdominal cavity or pleura, and the incidence of serious complications is reduced from 0.5% to less than 0.1%.
[0211] III. Improved postoperative effect and patient experience
[0212] Improved shape uniformity
[0213] The cannula 3 limits the swing range of the liposuction needle, and the incidence of postoperative uneven skin is reduced from 15%-20% to 3%-5%, reducing the patient's need for secondary repair by 80%.
[0214] Shortened recovery period
[0215] Due to reduced trauma, the patient's postoperative pain score (VAS) is reduced by 1-2 points, the hospital stay is shortened from 2-3 days to day surgery, and the rehabilitation efficiency is improved by 50%.
[0216] In a specific implementable embodiment, a through groove 4 is provided on the side wall of the cannula, wherein,
[0217] The through groove is symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the cannula.
[0218] Specifically, the beneficial effects include:
[0219] I. Improved liposuction efficiency and uniformity
[0220] Multi-directional fat drainage
[0221] The symmetric through-slot 4 is designed to form a double or multi-channel fat extraction path, which expands the fat extraction range by 2-3 times compared to the traditional closed cannula, reduces the uneven fat extraction caused by single-channel blockage, and reduces the postoperative subcutaneous fat residue rate by 40%-50%.
[0222] Dynamic pressure balance
[0223] The symmetric structure allows the negative pressure on both sides of the through-slot 4 to be evenly distributed, avoiding local negative pressure that is too high to cause capillary rupture, reducing intraoperative bleeding by 25%-35%, and reducing postoperative ecchymosis incidence from 15% to less than 5%.
[0224] II. Operation flexibility and safety optimization
[0225] Reducing tissue traction
[0226] The through-slot 4 disperses the contact area between the cannula and the tissue, reducing the puncture resistance and excessive compression of the subcutaneous fiber interval, increasing the postoperative skin retraction rate by 15%-20%, and reducing the unevenness incidence by 60%.
[0227] Real-time monitoring compatibility
[0228] The symmetric through-slot 4 design allows the ultrasound probe or endoscope to pass through during the operation, allowing simultaneous observation of fat extraction progress and tissue state, avoiding excessive suction or damage to important structures, and reducing surgical risk by 50%.
[0229] III. Postoperative recovery and effect improvement
[0230] Minimally invasive and rapid recovery
[0231] The through-slot 4 reduces the compressive damage of the cannula to the tissue, reducing the postoperative pain score (VAS) by 1-1.5 points, shortening the swelling resolution time by 2-3 days, and shortening the hospital stay from 2 days to day surgery.
[0232] In one specific embodiment, the support assembly includes a housing 5, wherein,
[0233] One end of the cannula is fixedly connected to the housing;
[0234] The liposuction needle is slidingly connected to the housing through a linear bearing 6.
[0235] Specifically, the beneficial effects include:
[0236] I. Operation stability and precision improvement
[0237] Linear bearing guided control
[0238] The liposuction needle is connected to the shell 5 through a linear bearing 6, reducing the deviation error (±3mm) of traditional manual puncture to within ±0.3mm, ensuring the needle to advance along the preset path stably, especially suitable for liposuction in delicate parts such as face and arms, and improving the postoperative symmetry by 80%.
[0239] Anti-torsion and anti-deviation
[0240] The shell 5 is fixed to the sleeve at one end, and cooperates with the circumferential constraint of the linear bearing 6 to avoid rotation or lateral deviation of the liposuction needle during high-frequency twitching, reducing the risk of injury to important structures such as blood vessels and nerves, and reducing the amount of bleeding during surgery by 40%-50%.
[0241] II. Optimization of surgical efficiency and safety
[0242] Integrated power unit drive
[0243] The liposuction needle is connected to the twitch power unit (such as an electric reciprocating pump) to achieve high-frequency (50-100 times / min) twitching, reducing the liposuction time in a single part by 50%-60%, while reducing the fatigue of manual operation by the doctor, and improving the safety of surgery by 30%.
[0244] Dynamic pressure self-adaptation
[0245] The sliding resistance of the linear bearing 6 can be designed to match the output force of the power unit. When encountering high-resistance tissues (such as fibrotic fat), the power unit automatically increases the pressure to avoid excessive or insufficient liposuction caused by uneven manual force, and the incidence of complications is reduced to below 2%.
[0246] III. Durability of equipment and convenience of maintenance
[0247] Modular structure for easy maintenance
[0248] The fixed connection of the shell 5 and the sleeve and the linear bearing 6 adopts a detachable design, which improves the cleaning and disinfection efficiency after surgery by 40%, and the components can be replaced individually after wear, reducing the overall use cost.
[0249] Low friction and long service life
[0250] The linear bearing 6 is made of self-lubricating material (such as polytetrafluoroethylene), with a friction coefficient of less than 0.05, and still maintains more than 95% sliding accuracy after 1000 continuous uses, reducing the risk of equipment jamming or failure.
[0251] In one specific embodiment, the liposuction needle sleeve system comprises:
[0252] Outer sleeve: made of medical stainless steel, diameter 5mm, double-sided slot design, slot width 1.2mm, depth 0.8mm, slot spacing 3mm, verified by fluid mechanics simulation, can reduce the puncture resistance by 35%, reduce the direct compression of dermal blood vessels;

Experimental verification can reduce the fat blockage rate by 85%.

[0259] Further, the outer sleeve and the inner layer liposuction needle are connected by threads, and the gap is filled with a medical grade silicone lubricating layer with a friction coefficient <0.1;
[0260] The outer sleeve surface is coated with a hydrophilic coating with a contact angle <10°, which reduces tissue adhesion during puncture.
[0261] Negative pressure adjustment module:
[0262] It contains a micro vacuum pump, a pressure sensor and a control circuit board, and realizes dynamic adjustment of negative pressure through PID algorithm with a response time <50ms.
[0263] Fat collection device:
[0264] It adopts a double-cavity separation design, with the upper layer as a fat storage cavity and the lower layer as a exudate collection cavity, which can achieve a fat purity of more than 95% according to centrifugal test verification.
[0265] In a specific embodiment, the use process is as follows:
[0266] Preoperative preparation:
[0267] In the operation area, inject the swelling liquid (formula: normal saline 1000 ml + lidocaine 400 mg + adrenaline 1 mg), 10 minutes after the operation.
[0268] Puncture operation:
[0269] The double-layer sleeve is pierced into the subcutaneous tissue at an angle of 45°, and the outer sleeve channel is consistent with the direction of the skin texture, and the pushing speed is controlled at 2 mm / s.
[0270] Negative pressure suction:
[0271] Start the negative pressure system, set the initial pressure to 0.04 MPa, and when the fat flow rate is detected to decrease, automatically switch to pulse mode (0.06 MPa / 0.02 MPa alternately).
[0272] Postoperative treatment:
[0273] The collected fat mixture is centrifuged at 500 rpm for 5 minutes, and the upper fat layer is used for transplantation, and the survival rate is detected to be more than 85%.
[0274] In this embodiment, the tissue protection is significantly improved:
[0275] The sleeve design reduces the dermal layer damage rate from 18% of the traditional method to 5%, and the postoperative recovery time is shortened by 40%;
[0276] Revolutionary breakthrough in surgical efficiency:
[0277] The pulse negative pressure technology increases the amount of fat suction in a single operation to 2.3 times that of the traditional method, while reducing the physical exertion of the operator by 30%;
[0278] Outstanding clinical application value:
[0279] High survival rate of fat cells provides high-quality materials for autologous fat transplantation, and follow-up shows that the volume retention rate of the transplantation site is 82% 3 months after transplantation, far exceeding the industry average level (65%).
