Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of suture thread guiding devices, and more particularly to a suture thread guiding device. Background Technology

[0002] In minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, due to the narrow surgical space and limited operating angle, how to efficiently and accurately pass the suture through the rotator cuff tissue is one of the keys to the success of the surgery. As an important surgical instrument, the suture guide is used to guide the suture to the target tissue and complete the gripping and transfer.

[0003] When dealing with complex anatomical structures, surgeons often need to prepare instruments with multiple angles or frequently adjust the approach position, which increases the complexity and time of the operation. Existing technologies include flexible or articulated suture guides, which can improve their adaptability to complex approach environments to some extent. However, the design of the articulated joint has the problem of unreliable locking. When encountering tissue resistance during the suture passage operation, the angle may retract or shift, resulting in inaccurate suture passage position and thus operation failure.

[0004] Secondly, the angle adjustment of some instruments is cumbersome and requires the surgeon to operate with both hands, which interrupts the continuity of the surgery and makes it difficult to meet clinical needs.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a suture thread guide device that can realize the adjustment of the head end angle and has good stability. Summary of the Invention

[0046] The following description is intended to provide a detailed account of the invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.

[0047] Please see Figure 1 The present invention provides a technical solution: a sewing thread guide device, comprising a handle 100, an extension rod 200 and a clamp head 300 arranged sequentially along the length direction, wherein the handle 100 is provided with an opening and closing operation component 101 for controlling the opening and closing of the clamp head 300;

[0048] A movable joint 201 is provided between the extension rod 200 and the pliers head 300. The pliers head 300 is configured to move relative to the extension rod 200 in any direction via the movable joint 201. The grip 100 is provided with an angle operating member 102 for driving the movable joint 201 and a locking operating member 103 for keeping the pliers head 300 in an active position.

[0049] In use, the entire thread guide is moved by the handle 100, and the clamp head 300 is placed in the thread-passing position. The opening and closing of the clamp head 300 is controlled by the opening and closing operation component 101 to realize the clamping and opening and closing operation of the clamp head 300. On this basis, the sewing thread-passing device can also drive the movable joint 201 through the angle operation component 102, so that the clamp head 300 can switch to different angles according to different usage scenarios. After the clamp head 300 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the movable joint 201 is constrained by the locking operation component 103 to lock the adjusted angle of the clamp head 300.

[0050] Furthermore, the locking operation member 103, the angle operation member 102, and the opening and closing operation member 101 are each independently provided. During use, the movement of the pliers head 300 can be independently controlled through each operation member to avoid misoperation.

[0051] In this embodiment, for the specific structure of the pliers head 300, please refer to [link to previous document]. Figure 1 The clamp head 300 includes a hollow, thread-threadable sewing hook structure 301 and a pressing structure 302 arranged from bottom to top;

[0052] Hollow needles 3011 are provided on the suture hook structure 301;

[0053] The pressing structure 302 is provided with a clamping direction A. The pressing structure 302 includes a housing 3021 that is spaced apart from each other in the clamping direction A. A thread feeding channel for the hollow needle 3011 to pass through is formed between opposite sides of the housing 3021. The housing 3021 is provided with a clamping member 3022 that can open and close the thread feeding channel of the hollow needle 3011 along the clamping direction A. The clamping member 3022 is configured to open when the hollow needle 3011 passes by and close when the hollow needle 3011 separates, so as to clamp and position the suture fed by the hollow needle 3011.

[0054] For more details, see Figure 2 and 3 The housing 3021 is hollow and has an opening on one side. The clamping member 3022 is movably disposed within the housing 3021 along the clamping direction A. An elastic member is disposed between the clamping member 3022 and the housing 3021. Preferably, the elastic member is a spring, and multiple elastic members are disposed along the length direction of the clamping member 3022.

[0055] Furthermore, one side of the clamping member 3022 opposite to the clamping member 3022 is a clamping surface 30221. The clamping surface 30221 is inclined on the lower side. The hollow needle 3011 can press this inclined surface to open the clamping member 3022. Even further, the clamping surface 30221 is an asymmetrical clamping surface 30221 that can fit tightly together. See details below. Figure 3 The clamping surface 30221 is a concave-convex fit. When the clamping member 3022 closes the thread feeding channel, the clamping surfaces 30221 are in contact with each other, so that when the two clamping surfaces 30221 are closed, there is a large contact area between the clamping surfaces 30221 and the thread, which increases the friction between the clamping surfaces 30221 and the thread, thereby firmly clamping the thread.

[0056] In use, the opening and closing mechanism 101 controls the closure of the pressing structure 302 and the suture hook structure. The needle tip on the suture hook structure squeezes and passes through the opposing clamping surfaces 30221 on the pressing structure 302. The opposing clamping surfaces 30221 of the pressing structure 302 open, and the needle tip punctures the rotator cuff tissue, through which the suture passes. After completion, the opening and closing mechanism 101 controls the opening of the clamp head 300, that is, the pressing structure 302 and the suture hook structure open. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3The needle tip of the suture hook structure exits the rotator cuff tissue and the clamping member 3022. The elastic member acts to reset the clamping member 3022 and clamp the suture. In the same clamping member 3022, the lower end of the clamping member 3022 covers the clamping surface 30221 in the opening and closing direction to ensure that the clamping surface 30221 does not affect the movement of the hollow needle 3011 after the clamping member 3022 is opened.

[0057] For the specific structure of the transmission mechanism between the pliers head 300 and the opening / closing operating element 101, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4-6 The pressing structure 302 is hinged to one end of the extension rod 200 near the pliers 300, and an elastic reset member is provided between the pressing structure 302 and the stitching hook structure 301.

[0058] An extrusion member 303 is sleeved on the side of the extension rod 200 near the clamp head 300. The extrusion member 303 is adapted to move along the length direction of the extension rod 200, and an elastic reset member is also provided between the extrusion member 303 and the extension rod 200. The clamp head 300 has at least two working states: a closed state and a closed state. When the clamp head 300 is in the closed state, the extrusion member 303 abuts against the outside of the suture hook structure 301 and the pressing structure 302, and the suture hook structure 301 and the pressing structure 302 are closed. When the clamp head 300 is in the closed state, the extrusion member 303 disengages from the suture hook structure 301 and the pressing structure 302, and the suture hook structure 301 and the pressing structure 302 are separated by the elastic reset member.

[0059] See Figure 4 The opening and closing operation component 101 is a trigger. The opening and closing operation component 101 is connected to the pressing component 303 through the transmission rope 1011. Preferably, the extension rod 200 is a slender tubular structure, and the transmission rope 1011 is movable and hidden inside the extension rod 200.

[0060] In use, the extruder 303 can be fitted onto and extruded on the outer wall of the clamp head 300. After pressing the opening and closing operation member 101, the internal transmission rope 1011 is pulled backward, and the extruder 303 moves on the extension rod 200. The extruder 303 extrudes the clamp head 300 to close the clamp head 300. See Figures 5 and 6. In this embodiment, the extruder 303 is provided with metal pieces corresponding to the pressing structure 302 and the stitching hook structure 301, respectively.

[0061] Furthermore, a transmission wheel for guiding the transmission rope 1011 is provided at the connection between the grip 100 and the extension member to ensure that the action on the opening and closing operation member 101 can be smoothly transmitted to the pressing member 303 through the transmission rope 1011, thereby completing the opening and closing of the pliers 300.

[0062] Regarding the transmission structure between the movable joint 201 and the angle operating member 102. See [link / reference]. Figure 1 and 7 The grip 100 has a servo motor 1021 on its inner side. The angle control component 102 is a joystick that controls the servo motor 1021. Specifically, the angle control component 102 and the servo motor 1021 are connected by a control line 1023.

[0063] See Figure 11 The movable joint 201 is a universal joint, and the extension rod 200 includes a movable part 202 and a fixed part 203 arranged along the length direction. The movable part 202 and the fixed part 203 are connected by the movable joint 201.

[0064] The servo motor 1021 and the movable part 202 are connected by a cable 1022. The servo motor 1021 is configured to drive the cable 1022 to move along the length direction of the extension rod 200. The number of cables 1022 is at least four, and the cables 1022 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the movable part 202. In use, the servo motor 1021 can act on the movable part 202 along the length direction of the extension rod 200 via the cable 1022. The movable part 202 rotates on the fixed part 203 via the movable joint 201. Since multiple cables 1022 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the movable part 202, the movable part 202 and the clamp head 300 connected to the movable part 202 can be rotated in any direction.

[0065] In this embodiment, there are four cables 1022. The servo motors 1021 are divided into servo motor one 1021a and servo motor two 1021. Each servo motor 1021 has two coaxially arranged winding wheels 10211 connected in opposite directions. The winding wheels 10211 are connected to the cables 1022, and there is a one-to-one correspondence between the winding wheels 10211 and the cables 1022. The cables 1022 on the same servo motor 1021 are of equal length and are respectively connected to the radially opposite sides of the movable part 202. (See [reference]). Figure 7 The winding wheel 10211 on the first servo motor 1021a is arranged laterally, and the winding wheel 10211 on the second servo motor 1021 is arranged longitudinally. The mounting positions of the two servo motors 1021 can be fixed using a plate.

[0066] Further, see Figure 10The winding reel 10211 and the servo motor 1021 are detachably connected. Specifically, the output shaft of the servo motor 1021 is provided with a locking slot, through which the servo motor 1021 transmits power to the winding reel 10211. By rotating the winding reel 10211, the cable 1022 controls the up-down or left-right rotation of the gun head. In use, the doctor uses their index finger to operate the joystick to control the direction of movement of the forceps head 300. One servo motor 1021 can control two winding reels 10211 to rotate in opposite directions simultaneously. The cables 1022 on both sides of the winding reel 10211 extend on one side and tighten on the other. Taking the downward tilt of the movable part 202 as an example, the servo motor 1021 controls the cable 1022 connected to the upper part of the movable part 202 to extend, while simultaneously controlling the cable 1022 connected to the lower part of the movable part 202 to retract. Due to the different cable exit positions, a downward tilt angle can be formed.

[0067] Furthermore, the extension rod 200 is provided with a hollow channel connecting both ends in the length direction. The hollow channel connects both ends in the length direction of the extension rod 200 to allow components such as sewing thread and transmission rope 1011 to enter and exit.

[0068] The inner wall of the extension rod 200 is provided with guide grooves for the pull cable 1022 to pass through. In this embodiment, there are four guide grooves. The guide grooves are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the extension rod 200. That is, the pull cable 1022 extends inside the extension rod 200 to the position of the clamp head 300 and is completely covered by the medical plastic extension rod 200. Each pull cable 1022 controls the up, down, left and right movements of the clamp head 300, which can realize flexible rotation in four directions, so that the clamp head 300 can be aligned with any position.

[0069] Furthermore, see Figure 12 The extension rod 200 is equipped with a distance sensor 401 positioned relative to the cable 1022. A small LCD screen 400 is provided on the outside of the grip 100. The LCD screen 400 is communicatively connected to the distance sensor 401. The LCD screen 400 is configured to display the movement distance of the cable 1022 based on the signal fed back by the distance sensor 401. When the locking operation 103 is pressed, the LCD screen 400 stops receiving signals from the distance sensor 401 and displays the locked state.

[0070] Regarding the transmission structure between the locking actuator 103 and the movable joint 201, see [link / reference]. Figure 7-9 The two sides of the stitching device along its length are the locking side and the unlocking side, respectively.

[0071] The suture thread guiding device further includes:

[0072] A limiting structure 1031 is configured to drive the cable 1022 to move synchronously toward the locking side and tighten, and the locking operation member 103 controls the connection of the limiting structure 1031.

[0073] The cable 1022 that controls the steering of the pliers 300 is pulled toward the locking side by the limiting structure 1031. The head end is supported by the steering joint. The four cables 1022 are connected to the four connection points in the circumferential direction of the movable part 202 and are tightened toward the locking side to lock the posture of the pliers 300 after adjustment.

[0074] For details, see Figure 8 and 9 The cable 1022 is provided with an inclined limiting part 10221, and the distance between the inclined limiting parts 10221 of each cable 1022 gradually increases as it approaches the locking side. The outer side of the inclined limiting part 10221 is provided with a limiting tooth 10311.

[0075] The limiting structure 1031 includes:

[0076] A limiting ring 10312 is movably connected to the inner side of the handle 100 along the length direction of the suture thread guide device. The locking operation member 103 is driven to connect to the limiting ring 10312. A limiting tooth 10313 is provided on the inner side of the limiting ring 10312. The limiting ring 10312 is sleeved on the outer side of the inclined limiting part 10221. In use, the locking operation member 103 drives the limiting ring 10312 to move toward the locking side. The limiting tooth 10313 on the limiting ring 10312 abuts against the limiting tooth 10311 and drives the cable 1022 to move toward the locking side through the limiting tooth 10311. The cable 1022 is tightened toward the locking side. The locking operation member 103 drives the limiting ring 10312 to move toward the unlocking side. The limiting tooth 10313 on the limiting ring 10312 and the limiting tooth 10311 on the inclined limiting part 10221 separate, releasing the limitation on the cable 1022.

[0077] The locking operation component 103 is a trigger. The locking operation component 103 is driven to connect to the limiting ring 10312 via the guide wire 1032. When in use, when the trigger is pressed, the trigger drives the limiting ring 10312 to move. The limiting tooth 10313 on the inner side of the limiting ring 10312 and the limiting tooth 10311 on the outer side of the cable 1022 engage. At the same time, the limiting ring 10312 pushes the cable 1022 toward the locking side to tighten it, thereby limiting the adjustment of the clamp head 300.

[0078] Furthermore, the limiting tooth 10313 and the limiting tooth 10311 adopt a structure similar to a ratchet and pawl, that is, the two limiting teeth have a one-way limiting function. The limiting tooth 10313 can only drive the limiting tooth 10311 to move towards the locking side, and the limiting tooth 10311 does not interfere with the limiting tooth 10313 in the unlocking direction, so that the limiting ring 10312 can be easily reset without affecting the normal movement of the cable 1022. For details, see Figure 13 The locking side of the first limiting tooth 10313 and the unlocking side of the second limiting tooth 10311 are locked together, while the unlocking side of the first limiting tooth 10313 and the locking side of the second limiting tooth 10311 are in a sliding fit. In use, the locking side of the first limiting tooth 10313 and the unlocking side of the second limiting tooth 10311 can engage after contact, and the unlocking side of the first limiting tooth 10313 and the locking side of the second limiting tooth 10311 can slide relative to each other after contact, thereby achieving unidirectional limiting.

[0079] In this embodiment, two servo motors 1021 are provided, and two limiting rings 10312 are also provided in the limiting structure 1031, namely a lateral limiting ring 10312a and a longitudinal limiting ring 10312b. After pressing the locking operation member 103, the limiting teeth 10313 of the lateral and longitudinal limiting rings 10312b act simultaneously to complete the limiting. In the lateral direction, due to space constraints, a hollow rod is required to plan the path of the cable 1022 so that the cable 1022 in the lateral and longitudinal directions works synchronously.

[0080] How to use:

[0081] The handle 100 has a thread hole 104 at its rear end that connects the inside and outside of the extension rod 200. The suture is fed in through the thread hole 104 at the rear end of the handle 100 and passes out through the suture hook structure.

[0082] The doctor holds the handle 100 with his hand, operates the joystick with his index finger, and controls the direction of movement of the forceps head 300 through the angle operating component 102 and the pull cable 1022. After adjusting the forceps head 300 to a suitable angle, the doctor continues to control the limit ring 10312 to work with the limit teeth through the locking operating component 103 to pull the pull cable 1022 toward the locking side and tighten it, thereby locking the posture of the forceps head 300.

[0083] Continue to control the opening and closing of the clamp head 300 through the opening and closing operation component 101 to complete the crossing of the line at the target position.

[0084] In summary, this suture thread guide device uses the handle 100 to move the entire thread guide, placing the clamp head 300 in the thread-passing position. The opening and closing of the clamp head 300 is controlled by the opening and closing operation component 101, realizing the clamping and opening / closing operation of the clamp head 300. In addition, the suture thread guide device can also drive the movable joint 201 through the angle operation component 102, so that the clamp head 300 can switch to different angles according to different usage scenarios. After the clamp head 300 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the movable joint 201 is constrained by the locking operation component 103 to lock the adjusted angle of the clamp head 300, ensuring that the movable clamp head 300 can complete the stable thread passing.

[0085] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical ideas and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. The scope of patent application of the present invention should not be limited by these embodiments. That is, all equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit disclosed in the present invention still fall within the patent scope of the present invention.
