Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of retractors, in particular to a sternal retractor for clinical thymoma thoracotomy. Background Art

[0002] Important organs of the human body, such as the lungs and heart, are located under the sternum, which supports and protects them to prevent external impacts from causing harm to the lungs and heart. When the heart is diseased and surgery is required, it is often necessary to open the sternum and then perform surgery on the exposed heart. A sternum retractor is often used to open the sternum.

[0003] First, when using the existing retractors, retractor plates of different sizes and shapes are selected according to different parts of the chest cavity. Since the retractor plates are often fixed to the retractors by fasteners, different retractors need to be replaced to expand the opening during complex operations, which will prolong the operation time and be time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in low practicality of the existing retractors.

[0004] Second, the existing retractor needs to rely on the movable plate to translate when adjusting the distance between the two movable plates. However, since the existing movable plate and the retractor are connected by gears and tooth grooves, the movable plate can only move at a fixed distance when moving, and the opening size cannot be fine-tuned according to different surgical requirements. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a sternal retractor for clinical thymoma thoracotomy to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

The top of the rod 18 is welded to the bottom of the adapter block 17, and the limit block 11 is embedded in the connecting groove 8, and the limit block 11 is pulled from the connecting groove 8 in the direction away from the retraction plate 5. When the limit block 11 is completely pulled out of the connecting groove 8, the limit block 11 is rotated ninety degrees, and the lifting plate 12 is moved down at the same time. The lifting plate 12 drives the baffle plate 13 to move down to the top of the limit block 11. At this time, the bottom of the baffle plate 13 is tightly attached to the top of the limit block 11, and the limit block 11 is limited to the current position by friction. At this time, the retraction plate 5 can be fixed on the movable plate 2, and then the retraction device 1 is operated to make the two movable plates 2 gradually move away from the patient's chest opening to open the opening. Multiple components cooperate with each other to realize the quick loading and unloading of the retraction plate 5, and then switch the retraction plate 5 of the corresponding form according to different expansion needs, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0023] Specifically, a movable rod 10 is welded to one side of the limiting block 11 close to the retraction plate 5 , and an end of the movable rod 10 away from the limiting block 11 is bolted to the elastic member 9 .

[0024] Through the above technical solution, the limiting block 11 will remain parallel to the connecting block 6 in the original state, and the side of the limiting block 11 close to the distraction plate 5 is in close contact with the surface of the connecting block 6.

[0025] Specifically, a through slot is formed on the connecting block 6 , one end of the elastic member 9 away from the movable rod 10 passes through the through slot and is bolted in the distraction plate 5 , and a communicating limiting slot 7 is formed on the through slot.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, the elastic member 9 will be slightly twisted after the limit block 11 rotates, and when the limit block 11 abuts against the movable plate 2, the elastic member 9 will pull the limit block 11 through its own elasticity, so that the limit block 11 is tightly against the movable plate 2.

[0027] Specifically, the movable rod 10 is located in the connecting groove 8 , a limiting ring 20 is welded to the outside of the movable rod 10 , and the limiting ring 20 is movably embedded in the limiting groove 7 .

[0028] Through the above technical solution, the limiting ring 20 is used to prevent the movable rod 10 from completely sliding out of the connecting block 6.

[0031] Specifically, two adapter blocks 17 are provided, and the two adapter blocks 17 are respectively connected to the screw rod 16 in a forward thread connection and a reverse thread connection.

[0032] Through the above technical solution, when the screw rod 16 rotates, it will drive the two adapter blocks 17 to move away from each other.

[0033] Specifically, two push rods 18 are provided, and the two push rods 18 are symmetrically arranged. The two push rods 18 are bolted to the telescopic rod 19 on the sides away from each other, and the telescopic rod 19 is bolted to the retraction device 1.

[0034] Through the above technical solution, after the push rod 18 moves, it will push the movable plates 2 on both sides away from each other, so that the two movable plates 2 can rotate outside the fixed block 3 through the adjustment ring 4 to adjust the angle of the movable plates 2.

[0035] When in use, the limit block 11 parallel to the connecting block 6 is embedded in the connecting groove 8, and the limit block 11 is pulled from the connecting groove 8 in the direction away from the pulling plate 5. At this time, the limit block 11 will pull the elastic member 9 through the movable rod 10. When the limit block 11 is completely pulled out of the connecting groove 8, the limit block 11 is rotated ninety degrees. At this time, the movable rod 10 will twist the elastic member 9 in the connecting block 6 and move the lifting plate 12 downward at the same time. The lifting plate 12 drives the baffle plate 13 to move down to the top of the limit block 11. At this time, the bottom of the baffle plate 13 is tightly attached to the top of the limit block 11, and the limit block 11 is limited by the friction between the slider 14 and the slide groove 15. The retraction plate 5 can be fixed on the movable plate 2 at the current position, and then the retraction device 1 can be operated to make the two movable plates 2 gradually move away from each other at the patient's chest opening to open the opening, and the screw rod 16 is rotated to make the screw rod 16 drive the two adapter blocks 17 connected to it in positive and negative threads to move. Since the angle position of the adapter block 17 is controlled by the telescopic rod 19, the adapter block 17 will move horizontally when the screw rod 16 rotates, driving the two push rods 18 away from each other. The bottom end of the push rod 18 will push the two movable plates 2 in the direction away from each other, so that the movable plate 2 rotates along the center of the fixed block 3, thereby changing the angle of retraction of the chest opening.
