[0002] With the continuous development of medical technology, heart valve replacement has become an effective treatment for certain congenital heart diseases, valvular stenosis, and valvular insufficiency. However, heart valve replacement surgery is a complex procedure, and accurately delivering the heart valve prosthesis to the designated position is crucial, while also carrying high surgical risks. In traditional open-heart surgery, delivering the valve prosthesis to the designated position is not easy. Therefore, to ensure the successful completion of heart valve replacement surgery, precise delivery of the heart valve prosthesis to the replacement site is necessary.

[0003] In related technologies, although there are delivery devices that can transport valve prostheses to a designated location on the heart, the delivery structure is relatively complex and the delivery efficiency is low, which increases the difficulty of the surgery and raises the cost of the surgery. Summary of the Invention
