[0002] A blood pump is a commonly used medical device that provides the power to keep blood flowing. For example, the heart is the body's power organ, its primary function being to power blood flow and transport it to all parts of the body. When a patient's heart fails and cannot provide sufficient power, a blood pump is placed in the heart to replace the heart and provide power for blood flow, eliminating the risk to the patient's life.
[0003] A blood pump typically includes a flow channel defined by a housing, a rotor disposed in the flow channel, and a stator that provides power to the rotor. The stator drives the rotor to rotate in the flow channel, thereby driving blood to flow along the flow channel through blades on the rotor, thereby ensuring the normal flow of blood in the patient's blood vessels.
[0004] However, existing blood pumps often experience slow blood flow areas during medical procedures, which can lead to thrombosis. This increases the rotor's rotational resistance and results in poor operational stability. Therefore, providing a stable blood pump has become a pressing technical challenge in the field.

[0078] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described in the embodiments are intended to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0079] References in this specification to "one embodiment," "an example," or "an example" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment itself can be included in at least one embodiment disclosed herein. The appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment.
[0080] A blood pump typically includes a flow channel defined by a housing, a rotor disposed in the flow channel, and a stator that provides power to the rotor. The stator drives the rotor to rotate in the flow channel, thereby driving blood to flow along the flow channel through blades on the rotor, thereby ensuring the normal flow of blood in the patient's blood vessels.
[0081] In order to reduce the frictional resistance encountered by the rotor, the rotor needs to be in a completely suspended state, that is, the front and rear ends of the rotor are not in contact with the relevant structures of the shell. However, in this case, there is a suspension gap between the downstream end of the rotor and the shell. Some blood will flow into this suspension gap and cannot be quickly discharged from the shell, thereby forming a dead zone in the suspension gap where blood flows slowly. Blood is prone to coagulation and formation of thrombus in the dead zone, which increases the rotor rotation resistance and poor stability of the blood pump operation.
[0082] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a blood pump, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 13As shown, the blood pump includes a rotor assembly 100, a stator assembly 200 and a housing 300. Along the direction of fluid flow, the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200 are axially spaced apart in the housing 300. The rotor assembly 100 can rotate around its own axis under the action of the magnetic field generated by the stator assembly 200 to drive the fluid flow through the rotor assembly 100. A flow channel 190 is formed in the rotor assembly 100. The flow channel 190 has a liquid outlet 102 and a liquid inlet 101, and the liquid outlet 102 is located at one end of the rotor assembly 100 facing the stator assembly 200.
[0083] In the blood pump provided by the present invention, the rotor assembly 100 can rotate under the action of the magnetic field generated by the stator assembly 200 and drive blood to flow into and out of the housing 300 to achieve the function of driving blood flow. In addition, a flow channel 190 is formed in the rotor assembly 100, and the liquid outlet 102 of the flow channel 190 is located at the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100 (such as Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 8 As shown, the proximal end refers to the end of the rotor assembly 100 close to the stator assembly 200 in the x1 direction, and the distal end refers to the end of the rotor assembly 100 away from the stator assembly 200 in the x2 direction). Figure 3 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 9 As shown ( Figure 3 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the flow path of blood as it flows through the interior of a blood pump in some embodiments of the present invention, where arrows in the figure indicate the direction of blood flow. Part of the blood entering the housing 300 can flow into the flow channel 190 and flow out from the fluid outlet at the proximal end of the flow channel 190, thereby flushing the area between the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200, thereby accelerating the blood flow rate in this area.
[0084] In the present invention, the flow channel 190 in the rotor assembly 100 is used to guide blood to the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100, thereby ensuring the blood flow speed in the area between the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200. This can effectively avoid coagulation caused by the reduction of blood flow speed in the blood pump, ensure the smooth rotation of the rotor assembly 100, and further ensure the stability of the blood pump operation and the safety of medical operations.
[0085] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, the blood pump also includes at least one magnetic bearing assembly, which includes an inner magnetic bearing and an outer magnetic bearing that interact with each other. The outer magnetic bearing is arranged on the inner wall of the shell, and the first inner magnetic bearing is arranged on the rotor assembly 100, thereby ensuring the stability of the axis of the rotor assembly 100 through the repulsive force between the inner and outer magnetic bearings.
[0086] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 As shown, the blood pump also includes a first magnetic bearing assembly, which includes a first inner magnetic bearing 130 and a first outer magnetic bearing 360 that interact with each other. The first outer magnetic bearing 360 is arranged on the inner wall of the shell 300, and the first inner magnetic bearing 130 is arranged on the rotor assembly 100.
[0087] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 As shown, the blood pump also includes a second magnetic bearing assembly, which includes a second inner magnetic bearing 120 and a second outer magnetic bearing 350 that interact with each other. The second outer magnetic bearing 350 is arranged on the inner wall of the shell 300, and the second inner magnetic bearing 120 is arranged on the rotor assembly 100.
[0088] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 13 As shown, the housing 300 has a fluid inlet 302 at one end, the rotor assembly 100 is located between the fluid inlet 302 and the stator assembly 200 , and the housing 300 has at least one fluid outlet (eg, a first fluid outlet 313 and a second fluid outlet 323 ).
[0089] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the flow channel 190 includes a central flow channel 191 , which is arranged axially along the rotor assembly 100 , and two ends of the central flow channel 191 are respectively connected to the liquid inlet 101 and the liquid outlet 102 .
[0090] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the flow channel 190 also includes at least one branch channel 192, one end of the branch channel 192 is formed on the outer surface of the rotor assembly 100 (and a liquid inlet 101 is formed on the surface of the rotor assembly 100), and the other end of the branch channel 192 is connected to the central flow channel 191.
[0091] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the central flow channel 191 penetrates the rotor assembly 100 along the axial direction.
[0092] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, the flow divider 192 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the axis of the rotor assembly 100 .
[0093] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the flow diverter 192 is located between the blades 112 of the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200 .
[0094] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the branch channel 192 gradually moves away from the stator assembly in a direction away from the central flow channel 191 , that is, there is an angle between the branch channel 192 and the axial direction, so that blood around the rotor assembly 100 flows from the branch channel 192 into the central flow channel 191 .
[0095] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, the angle between the axis of the branch channel 192 and the axis of the central channel 191 is 10° to 80°.
[0096] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 14 As shown, the blood pump further includes a flow guide 210 , which is located between the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200 ; the flow guide 210 has a plurality of flow guide fins 211 , which face one side of the rotor assembly 100 .
[0097] In an embodiment of the present invention, a guide fin 211 is further provided at the proximal end of the blood flow path, with multiple guide fins 211 facing one side of the rotor assembly 100, thereby guiding the blood flowing out of the liquid outlet 102 to flow quickly toward the fluid outlet on the side, further ensuring the blood flow speed in the area between the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200, avoiding the reduction of blood flow speed and the generation of coagulation, and ensuring the smooth rotation of the rotor assembly 100.
[0098] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 14 As shown, the guide fins 211 are circumferentially arranged around the axis of the rotor assembly 100 .
[0099] In an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of guide fins 211 are distributed and extend in a divergent manner in all directions, thereby guiding the blood flowing out of the liquid outlet 102 to flow quickly to the fluid outlets in the surrounding areas, further ensuring the blood flow speed in the area between the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200, avoiding the blood flow rate reduction and coagulation, and ensuring the smooth rotation of the rotor assembly 100.
[0100] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 11 、 Figure 13 As shown, the height of the guide fins 211 along the axis of the rotor assembly 100 gradually decreases along the side wall direction toward the housing 300, that is, the guide fins 211 are high in the central area and low in the edge area, thereby ensuring that the blood is quickly diverted when the blood flows toward the stator assembly 200, avoiding turbulence between the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200, and ensuring the smoothness of blood flow.
[0101] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 As shown, the rotor assembly 100 further has a guide hole 103 at one end facing the stator assembly 200 . The diameter of the guide hole 103 gradually increases in the direction toward the stator assembly 200 . The guide hole 103 is connected to the flow channel 190 . The guide fin 211 is partially located in the guide hole 103 on the side facing the fluid inlet 302 .
[0102] In an embodiment of the present invention, the top of the guide fin 211 is inserted into the guide hole 103 toward the fluid inlet 302, so that when the blood flows into the guide hole 103, the blood is pre-diverted through the protruding top structure of the guide fin 211, so that the blood is quickly diverted to the area between adjacent guide fins 211, further ensuring the smoothness of blood flow.
[0103] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the guide hole 103 is conical in shape.
[0104] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 11 、 Figure 12 As shown, the thickness of the guide fin 211 gradually increases and then gradually decreases along the extension direction of the guide fin 211 .
[0105] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 11 、 Figure 12As shown, the angle between each guide fin 211 and the radial direction of the rotor assembly 100 gradually increases toward the sidewall of the housing 300. That is, the guide fins 211 extend spirally around the axis of the rotor assembly 100, so that the flow path between each pair of adjacent guide fins 211 is spiral in shape. This adapts to the flow direction of blood in the rotating flow channel 190, avoids excessive impact on the blood flow, and thus improves the safety of medical procedures.
[0106] The embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit the spiral direction of the guide fin 211, and it can be consistent with the rotation direction of the rotor assembly 100. For example, as an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 11 、 Figure 12 As shown, the plurality of guide fins 211 extend in a counterclockwise direction toward the side wall of the housing 300 .
[0107] Alternatively, as another optional embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of guide fins 211 may also extend in a clockwise direction toward the side wall of the housing 300 .
[0108] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, the flow guide 210 is integrally formed with the stator assembly 200 or fixedly installed on the stator assembly 200 .
[0109] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 12 As shown, a guide space 214 is provided between the liquid outlet 102 of the flow channel 190 and the surface of the stator assembly 200 facing the rotor assembly 100, and a plurality of guide fins 211 surround the guide space 214. That is, in an embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of guide fins 211 do not touch each other in the center of the guide plate, but leave a guide space 214 in the center for blood to flow in, thereby avoiding the generation of a blood flow dead zone at the intersection of adjacent guide fins 211, further preventing blood coagulation inside the blood pump, and improving the safety of medical operations.
[0110] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 14 As shown, the stator assembly 200 includes a plurality of windings 220, and a power magnetic ring 201 is provided on the rotor assembly 100. The plurality of windings 220 are circumferentially distributed around the axis. The plurality of windings 220 are used to generate a magnetic field when energized to drive the power magnetic ring 201 to drive the rotor assembly 100 to rotate. The flow guide 210 separates the fluid environment in which the rotor is located from the plurality of windings 220.
[0111] In an embodiment of the present invention, the stator assembly 200 and the power magnetic ring 201 provided on the rotor assembly 100 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction, that is, the motor structure formed by the stator assembly 200 and the power magnetic ring 201 in the embodiment of the present invention is an axial magnetic field motor (disc motor). The outer diameter of the magnetic ring in the rotor assembly 100 is not limited by the internal size of the stator, which can effectively ensure the motor transmission efficiency and improve the blood transfusion capacity of the blood pump.

The flow guide member 210 closes the opening of the stator shell 330 on the side facing the fluid inlet 302.
[0113] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 As shown, the guide member 210 includes a positioning plate 212 and a plurality of guide fins 211 located on the positioning plate 212.

[0169] First, if Figures 15 and 16 As shown, the modules corresponding to the chambers in the rotor housing 160 (the second inner magnetic bearing 120, the power magnetic ring 201, and the displacement sensor module 170) are sequentially mounted on the central shaft 150, so that each module contacts the corresponding step (shoulder), and the two housing parts 160a are aligned so that they surround the central shaft 150 and both sides of each module, and the two are bonded together to form the rotor housing 160;
[0170] Then, if Figures 16 and 17 As shown, the head end of the central shaft 150 passes through the second housing 320, so that the rotor housing 160 is accommodated in the second housing 320, and the impeller 110, the first internal magnetic bearing 130 (not shown in the figure and blocked by the impeller hub 180), and the impeller hub 180 are sequentially installed on the central shaft 150 (at this time, because the impeller 110 and the rotor housing 160 are respectively locked on both sides, the rotor assembly 100 cannot be easily removed from the second housing 320);
[0171] Then, if Figures 17 and 18 As shown, the first connecting bars 312 of the first housing 310 are fixedly connected to the second housing 320 to assemble and form the guide housing 301;
[0172] Finally, if Figures 18 and 19 As shown, the multiple second connecting bars 322 of the second housing 320 are fixedly connected to the stator housing 330 to install the stator assembly 200 to the proximal end of the aforementioned structure, and then the shrink housing 340, the conduit 400 and other structures are sequentially installed to the proximal end of the second housing 320 to complete the installation operation.
[0173] In the blood pump provided in an embodiment of the present invention, the rotor assembly 100 is located between the fluid inlet 302 and the stator assembly 200, and is capable of rotating under the influence of the magnetic field generated by the stator assembly 200 and driving blood through the blades 112 to flow from the fluid inlet 302 toward the stator assembly 200 into the housing 300 and out through the fluid outlet, thereby achieving the function of driving blood flow. In addition, a flow channel 190 is formed in the rotor assembly 100, and the liquid outlet 102 of the flow channel 190 is located at the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100. As a result, some blood entering the housing 300 can flow into the flow channel 190 and flow out through the fluid outlet at the proximal end of the flow channel 190, thereby flushing the area between the proximal end of the rotor assembly 100 and the stator assembly 200, thereby accelerating the blood flow rate in this area.
