[0061] The above and other technical features and advantages of the present invention are described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0062] This embodiment provides a technical solution: an electric elastic wire ligation device, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, it includes a gun body 1 and a negative pressure suction component, an elastic line 7, a push rod component, a ligation pipeline component, a tangent tube component, a linear pushing component, a winding component and a trigger switch 11 integrated in the gun body 1.

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the overall shape of the gun body 1 is similar to that of a pistol, which not only conforms to ergonomic principles and is convenient for the doctor to hold and operate with one hand, but also realizes the compactness and portability of the instrument by integrating the main functional components inside the gun body. The trigger switch 11 is located at the trigger of the gun body structure to facilitate the operator to operate. The trigger switch 11 is used to control the operation of the linear pushing component and the winding component with one button; it should be noted that: the interior of the gun body 1 is also provided with a circuit board and a power socket 12 that cooperate with the trigger switch 11 to realize the control and power supply of the device.

[0064] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the negative pressure suction component is arranged inside the gun body 1, which is used to attract and fix the target tissue. The negative pressure suction component has a launch head 26 located at the head of the gun body 1, that is, the launch head 26 is located at the muzzle of the gun body structure; the negative pressure suction component includes a negative pressure connector 21, a connecting pipe 22 and an inner tube 24 arranged inside the gun body 1 and connected in sequence, the negative pressure connector 21 is connected to the external negative pressure device through an air pipe, the end of the inner tube 24 is connected to the gun barrel 25, the launch head 26 is located at the end of the gun barrel 25, and a negative pressure switch 23 is provided on the inner tube 24. The negative pressure switch 23 is used to control the operation of the negative pressure device to generate negative pressure, aim the launch head 26 at the target tissue and press it, so that the target tissue can be attracted and fixed under the action of the negative pressure.

[0065] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, one end of the elastic wire 7 forms a ring sleeve 71 with an adjustable aperture, and the ring sleeve 71 is sleeved on the launch head 26. The ring sleeve 71 can be pushed and displaced on the launch head 26. The ring sleeve 71 adopts the ring sleeve in the authorization announcement number CN 104127216 B (patent name: Elastic wire setting method in ligation device and automatic elastic wire ligation device), so it is not described in detail here. The other end of the elastic wire 7 is connected to the winding assembly. When the winding assembly is in operation, the aperture of the ring sleeve 71 is tightened to achieve tight fixation of the target tissue.

[0066] like Figures 2 to 5 The cam 71 is fixed to the gun body 1 and the cam 72 is fixed to the gun body 1. As shown in FIG, the push rod assembly is slidably arranged on the gun body 1, and is used to push the ring sleeve 71 out of the launch head 26, thereby realizing that the ring sleeve 71 will enclose the fixed target tissue; the push rod assembly includes two pushing rods 32 slidably arranged on both sides of the gun body 1, specifically: the two pushing rods 32 are slidably arranged on both sides of the gun barrel 25, and one end of the two pushing rods 32 corresponds to the ring sleeve 71, forming a symmetrical layout; further, a pushing portion 35 can be fixed to the ends of the two pushing rods 32, and the pushing portion 35 is a pushing ring or a pushing tube, and the pushing portion 35 is sleeved on the launch head 26, and the pushing portion 35 is made of metal or plastic material. The design of the pushing portion 35 ensures that the ring sleeve 71 is uniformly stressed during the pushing process, thereby avoiding the ring sleeve from tilting or falling off; in order to ensure the sliding stability of the pushing rod 32, a long waist hole is provided on the pushing rod 32, and a positioning pin 31 fixed to the gun barrel 25 is provided in the long waist hole to limit the pushing rod 32.

[0067] A longitudinal slider 33 is slidingly provided inside the gun body 1. The longitudinal slider 33 has the same sliding direction as the wire-pushing rod 32. The longitudinal slider 33 has two cross bars, and the two cross bars of the longitudinal slider 33 are respectively in contact with the two wire-pushing rods 32. When the longitudinal slider 33 moves outward, the wire-pushing rod 32 will also be pushed to move. The longitudinal slider 33 is connected to the moving end of the linear pushing assembly through a gap-type connecting piece to enable the longitudinal slider 33 to automatically disengage from the moving end of the linear pushing assembly and reset.

[0068] The function of the gap-type connector is: in the first process of the operation of the linear pushing component, the longitudinal slider 33 and the wire pushing rod 32 are pushed outward by the gap-type connector, so as to push the ring sleeve 71 away from the launch head 26. Subsequently, under the action of the gap-type connector, the linear pushing component no longer pushes the longitudinal slider 33 to move, and the longitudinal slider 33 can return to its original position by itself, preparing for the next operation. The automatic reset mechanism ensures that the push rod assembly can be restored to the standby state without manual adjustment after each operation, which provides convenience for continuous use.

[0069] like Figures 2 to 6When the cam 33 is in the unlock state, the locking cam 33 is locked and the locking cam 33 is unlocked, so that the cam 33 can be unlocked when the cam 33 is unlocked.

[0070] When the linear push assembly is not in operation, the protrusion 346 is staggered with the avoidance groove 347, and the protrusion 346 abuts against the horizontal slider 341 (refer to Figure 4 When the linear pushing assembly is running, under the action of the protrusion 346 and the transverse slider 341, the longitudinal slider 33 is pushed to move, and the tension spring 344 is stretched. At the same time, the transverse slider 341 will also slide synchronously with the longitudinal slider 33. When the transverse slider 341 contacts the guide inclined surface 345, due to the guidance of the guide inclined surface 345, the transverse slider 341 will be abutted and slide, and the spring 342 is compressed. Since the sliding direction of the transverse slider 341 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the longitudinal slider 33, the protrusion 346 will move to correspond to the avoidance groove 347. At this time, the longitudinal slider 33 will rebound to its original position due to the tension of the tension spring 344, and the transverse slider 341 will rebound to its original position due to the thrust of the spring 342 (in the above-mentioned action process, the wire pushing rod 32 pushes the ring sleeve 71 away from the launch head 26); when the linear pushing assembly returns to its original state, the protrusion 346 will contact the second inclined surface, thereby squeezing the transverse slider 341 to move, so that the protrusion 346 can smoothly pass through the avoidance groove 347.

[0071] like Figure 1 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10As shown, the ligation pipeline assembly is arranged on the gun body 1 and is parallel to the push rod assembly, and is used to resist the slipknot of the ring sleeve 71. The ligation pipeline assembly is arranged on the lower side of the gun barrel 25; the ligation pipeline assembly includes an outer cover 4 installed on the gun body 1, and the outer cover 4 is specifically fixed to the gun barrel 25. A ligation tube 81 is slidably arranged in the outer cover 4, and an elastic bending head 83 is installed at one end of the ligation tube 81 close to the launch head 26. A notch 84 is provided on the elastic bending head 83, and the number of notches 84 can be set to 1-3. The setting of the notch 84 can facilitate the bending of the elastic bending head 83. The other end of the ligation tube 81 is slidably sleeved with an elastic cap 82, and the elastic cap 82 abuts against the moving end of the linear pushing assembly to realize the pushing displacement of the ligation tube 81. When the ligation tube 81 is pushed to move, the ligation tube 81 will push the elastic bending head 83 , and the elastic bending head 83 will abut against the corresponding part of the patient. Driven by the ligation tube 81 , the elastic bending head 83 will bend along the notch 84 .

[0072] like Figure 8 and Figure 11 As shown, an annular groove 823 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the end of the ligation tube 81, and the elastic cap 82 has multiple elastic parts 821. A plurality of annular slits are provided on the elastic cap 82 to form the elastic parts 821. The elastic parts 821 have a certain elasticity. The end of the elastic part 821 has an inner convex part 822 located in the annular groove 823. The cooperation between the inner convex part 822 and the annular groove 823 can provide the elastic cap 82 with a certain damping force when sliding along the inner tube 91.

[0073] like Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, the tangent tube assembly is arranged in the inner cavity of the ligation tube 81 of the ligation line assembly, and is used to cut off the elastic line 7 after the ring sleeve 71 is tightened, leaving only the ring sleeve 71; the tangent tube assembly includes an inner tube 91 inserted into the inner cavity of the ligation tube 81, one end of the inner tube 91 extends out of the ligation tube 81, and the end extends into the gun body 1, and the other end is movably inserted with a tubular cutter 92, and the tubular cutter 92 has a blade 93 at the end away from the inner tube 91, and the blade 93 is a semi-tubular structure, and the blade 93 is used to cut the elastic line 7.

[0074] like Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 and Figure 12As shown, a clamping hole 94 is provided at one end of the inner tube 91 near the tubular cutter 92, and an elastic sheet 95 is provided at the corresponding end of the tubular cutter 92. Two adjacent slits are provided at the end of the tubular cutter 92 to form an elastic sheet 95. The elastic sheet 95 has a certain elasticity, and the end of the elastic sheet 95 has an outer protrusion 96. The clamping hole 94 is located at the overlapping section where the inner tube 91 and the tubular cutter 92 are plugged in. The tubular cutter 92 is provided with a cutter positioning groove 921. The positioning groove 921 has a certain size in the axial direction. A positioning rod 9 is inserted through the inner wall of the ligation tube 81. 22, and the positioning rod 922 passes through the cutter positioning groove 921. The positioning rod 922 can pull out the ligation tube 81 so that the tubular cutter 92 can be installed in the ligation tube 81, which can ensure that the tubular cutter 92 will not rotate at any angle. When the ligation tube 81 is displaced, the tubular cutter 92, the elastic bending head 83 and the ligation tube 81 can be displaced synchronously through the connection of the positioning rod 922 until the clamping hole 94 corresponds to the outer protrusion 96, and the outer protrusion 96 is clamped into the clamping hole 94, thereby making it impossible for the inner tube 91 and the tubular cutter 92 to be displaced.

[0075] like Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, in order to ensure that the clamping hole 94 corresponds to the circumferential direction of the outer protrusion 96, a notch 911 is provided at the end of the inner tube 91 away from the tubular cutter 92. The portion of the inner tube 91 with the notch 911 is slidably inserted into the interior of the gun body 1. A sliding hole is provided inside the gun body 1 that is adapted to the outer shape of the end of the inner tube 91. The end of the inner tube 91 is slidably arranged in the sliding hole, so the circumferential angle of the inner tube 91 will not flip, thereby realizing the circumferential positioning of the inner tube 91 and the tubular cutter 92.

[0076] When the moving end of the linear pushing assembly pushes, the ligation tube 81 can be pushed to move. When the elastic bending head 83 abuts against the corresponding part of the target tissue and the abutment force between the elastic cap 82 and the moving end of the linear pushing assembly exceeds the set threshold, the elastic cap 82 will break away from the constraint of the annular groove 823, driving the elastic cap 82 to slide along the axis of the ligation tube 81.

[0077] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, the linear pushing assembly is arranged inside the gun body 1, and is used to drive the push rod assembly, the ligation pipeline assembly and the tangent tube assembly to operate in sequence; the linear pushing assembly includes a pushing motor 51 installed inside the gun body 1, and the output end of the pushing motor 51 is installed with a threaded rod 52, and the end of the threaded rod 52 away from the pushing motor 51 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the gun body 1, and a pushing slider 53 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 52, and the pushing slider 53 is slidably engaged in the gun body 1 so that it will not rotate with the threaded rod 52. The pushing slider 53 is the moving end of the linear pushing assembly, and the pushing slider 53 has two symmetrically arranged transverse pushing rod portions 54, and the two transverse pushing rod portions 54 are both in contact with the elastic cap 82, and the pushing slider 53 is axially corresponding to the inner tube 91.

[0078] The process of the linear push component operation is:

[0079] In the first process of the linear push assembly operation, the push rod assembly is pushed to push the ring 71 out of the launch head 26;

[0080] In the second process of the linear pushing assembly, the two horizontal push rods 54 abut against the elastic cap 82, pushing the ligation tube 81 to move. At the same time, due to the setting of the positioning rod 922, the tubular cutter 92 and the elastic bending head 83 are also driven to move synchronously. The ligation tube 81 pushes the elastic bending head 83 to bend and presses the slipknot of the ring sleeve 71 until the ligation tube 81 is tightened and cannot move. At this time, the outer protrusion 96 enters the clamping hole 94.

[0081] In the third process of the operation of the linear pushing assembly, since the ligation tube 81 is pressed and cannot be displaced, under the continued push of the horizontal pushing rod 54, the inner protrusion 822 will disengage from the annular groove 823, and the elastic cap 82 will slide along the axis of the ligation tube 81, and the pushing slider 53 will abut against the end of the inner tube 91. The pushing slider 53 will push the inner tube 91 and the tubular cutter 92 to one side of the elastic bending head 83, and the blade 93 will cut off the elastic line 7 located in the elastic bending head 83 that is bent into a nearly right angle.

[0082] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the end of the elastic wire 7 away from the annulus 71 passes through the elastic bending head 83, the tubular cutter 92, the inner tube 91, and is connected to the winding assembly. The winding assembly is arranged on the gun body 1 and is used to wind and tighten the elastic wire 7. The winding assembly cooperates with the ligation pipeline assembly to achieve the goal of gradually tightening the annulus 71 and ligating the target tissue. The winding assembly includes a winding motor 61 installed inside the gun body 1. The output end of the winding motor 61 is fixed with a spline 62. The spline 62 is removable and connected to the winding box 63. The end of the elastic wire 7 away from the annulus 71 is connected to the winding box 63.

[0083] When the winding motor 61 is running, the winding box 63 is driven to rotate, so that the elastic wire 7 is gradually wound onto the winding box 63. Under the dual forces of the elastic wire 7 being pulled and the ligation tube 81 pushing, the ring 71 is tightened.

[0084] like Figure 13 As shown, in other embodiments, the barrel 25, the outer cover 4, the ligating line assembly, the wire cutting tube assembly and the winding box 63 constitute a barrel kit, and the remaining structure is a gun body kit. The barrel kit and the gun body kit are detachably connected by a buckle. When in use, the barrel kit is disposable.

[0085] A method for using an electric elastic thread ligation device comprises the following steps:

[0086] Step 1: Absorb and fix the target tissue: Hold the gun body, aim the transmitter head 26 at the target tissue to be ligated, and activate the negative pressure suction component to suck the target tissue into the transmitter head 26 under the action of negative pressure.

[0087] Step 2: Pushing out the ring: Pressing the trigger switch 11, the linear push assembly operates, pushing the ring out of the transmitter head 26, and making the ring go around the periphery of the target tissue;

[0088] Step 3: Tighten the loop: The linear pushing assembly pushes the ligature assembly to move, so that the elastic bending head 83 is pressed against the slipknot of the loop; at the same time, the winding assembly runs, gradually winding and tightening the tail end of the elastic line 7; the forward resistance force of the elastic bending head 83 and the backward tension of the winding assembly work together to gradually tighten the loop until it firmly ligatures and tightens the target tissue;

[0089] Step 4: Cutting the elastic cord 7: The linear push assembly pushes the cutting tube assembly to move, causing the tubular cutter 92 to press against the wall of the elastic bending head 83 and simultaneously press against the rear of the loop slipknot, thereby cutting the elastic cord;

[0090] Step 5: Reset: The linear push assembly runs in the opposite direction and returns to its original position, and the next operation can be carried out in a cycle.

[0091] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is intended to be illustrative rather than restrictive of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that many changes, modifications, and even equivalents may be made to the present invention within the spirit and scope of the claims, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
