Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a stapler. Background Art

[0002] Generally speaking, staplers can be widely used for tissue suturing in surgical operations. Staplers can generally be composed of an end actuator located at the distal end, a handle located at the proximal end, and a slender shaft assembly connected between the end actuator and the handle. The slender shaft assembly has an outer sleeve, and a transmission rod that can slide back and forth along the axial direction of the outer sleeve is provided in the outer sleeve. The transmission rod can usually be connected to the actuating mechanism of the handle at the proximal end, and the distal end is connected to the end actuator to brake the end actuator to operate the tissue. The end actuator can generally include a tool holder that can move between the proximal end and the distal end, and a staple cartridge assembly and a staple anvil that are connected by a pivot so that they can be opened and closed relative to each other. Currently, most staplers on the market use a tool holder with an I-beam structure to achieve the closure of the end actuator, such as the stapler disclosed in patent CN 114246623A. This method will cause the tissue to be cut when the tool holder moves. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a novel stapler, which eliminates the knife holder of the I-beam structure and will not damage the tissue structure. The anvil and the stapler magazine assembly can be opened or closed by driving the first driving assembly with a trigger to drive the outer sleeve to move. At the same time, the automatic locking of the closed state can be achieved by setting a clamping locking assembly. After the locking is released, the first driving assembly can drive the outer sleeve to automatically reset.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0026] Preferably, the trigger is rotatably connected to the handle and a trigger reset elastic member is provided between the trigger and the handle, and the trigger reset elastic member enables the end of the trigger engaged with the pushing member to always have a tendency to move in a direction away from the pushing member.

[0027] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0028] The stapler of the utility model eliminates the I-beam knife holder and will not damage the tissue structure. The anvil and the stapler magazine assembly can be opened or closed by driving the first driving component by the trigger to drive the outer sleeve to move. At the same time, the automatic locking of the closed state can be achieved by setting a clamping locking component.

[0055] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0056] Example 1

[0057] See also Figures 1 to 3 The stapler comprises a handle 1, a trigger 2 operably connected to the handle 1, an elongated shaft assembly connected to the handle 1, and an end effector 7 connected to the elongated shaft assembly. The end effector 7 is used to suture tissue after entering the laparoscopic surgical channel, and comprises a nail anvil 71, a nail magazine assembly 72, and a nail pushing assembly. Among them, the nail anvil 71 is connected to the elongated shaft assembly; the nail magazine assembly 72 is rotatably and slidably arranged on the nail anvil 71, and can be operably moved toward the direction close to the nail anvil 71 to a closed state or moved toward the direction away from the nail anvil 71 to an open state; the nail pushing assembly can respond to the firing action and push the staples out of the nail magazine assembly 72 to suture the target tissue, and the nail pushing assembly comprises a nail pushing piece 73 and a nail pushing rod 74 movably arranged in the elongated shaft assembly, and the nail pushing piece 73 is connected to the nail pushing rod 74 and is located at the distal end.

[0058] Generally, the thickness of the stapler assembly 72 is generally greater than that of the anvil 71. Existing staplers mostly adopt a method in which the stapler assembly 72 is fixed and the anvil 71 is movably arranged. This method is not conducive to inserting the stapler assembly 72 into narrow tissues, and the stapler assembly 72 is very likely to cause trauma to the tissues after insertion. The inventor fixes the anvil 71 and movably arranges the stapler assembly 72, thereby facilitating the insertion of the smaller anvil 71 into the narrow tissue gap and reducing the trauma caused to the patient.

[0059] Furthermore, the nail anvil 71 includes a nail anvil seat 711 connected to the slender shaft assembly, and an anvil body 712 disposed on the nail anvil seat 711 and having a nail abutting surface. Fig.10 As shown, grooves are provided on both sides of the proximal end of the nail anvil seat 711, and a steering shaft extending upward is also provided on the proximal end of the nail anvil seat 711, and a plurality of teeth 7111 are provided on the proximal end of the nail anvil seat 711. The nail magazine assembly 72 includes a nail magazine seat 721 and a nail magazine 722 having staples. Fig. 9 As shown, the two side surfaces of the proximal end of the nail magazine seat 721 have rotating shafts extending outward and matching the grooves of the nail anvil seat 711, and the rotating shafts are rotatably and slidably arranged in the grooves.

[0060] In order to drive the nail magazine assembly 72 to rotate relative to the nail anvil 71, the inventors set corresponding matching blocks on the slender shaft assembly and the nail magazine seat 721 respectively, and drive the nail magazine assembly 72 to open or close through the movement of the slender shaft assembly, as follows. The slender shaft assembly includes an outer sleeve 6 and a rotating joint 62 arranged in the distal area of ​​the outer sleeve 6. Among them, the outer sleeve 6 includes a first outer sleeve part 61 that is rotatably connected to the rotating joint 62 at the proximal end, and a second outer sleeve part 63 that is rotatably connected to the rotating joint 62 at the distal end. The distal end of the first outer sleeve part 61 is provided with an outer sleeve groove 611, and the distal side wall of the outer sleeve groove 611 has a first matching block 612 that extends downwardly from the distal end to the proximal end. The proximal end of the nail magazine assembly 72 and the nail anvil 71 is located in the first outer sleeve part 61, and the proximal end of the nail magazine seat 721 has a second matching block 7211 extending in a direction close to the first matching block 612 (extending upward in this embodiment) and an inclined surface 7212 matching the first matching block 612. When the outer sleeve 6 moves toward the proximal end along its axial direction, the first matching block 612 abuts against the second matching block 7211 and drives the nail magazine assembly 72 to move in a direction away from the nail anvil 71 to open the nail magazine assembly 72; when the outer sleeve 6 moves toward the distal end along its axial direction, the first matching block 612 releases the abutment force on the second matching block 7211, and the distal end of the outer sleeve 6 contacts the nail magazine assembly 72 and drives the nail magazine assembly 72 to move in a direction close to the nail anvil 71 to close the nail magazine assembly 72. The middle area of ​​the first matching block 612 and the second matching block 7211 has a channel that allows the nail pusher assembly to move, namely the first matching block channel 6121 and the second matching block channel 7213.

[0061] In order to realize the movement of the outer sleeve 6 , the stapler further includes a driving assembly and a clamping and locking assembly 5 .

[0062] The drive assembly includes a first drive assembly 3 for driving the staple cartridge assembly 72 to open or close. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the first drive assembly 3 includes a pusher 31 that can respond to the trigger 2 to move distally to the first position, and a pusher reset elastic member 32 disposed between the handle 1 and the pusher 31. The pusher reset elastic member 32 enables the pusher 31 to always have a tendency to move proximally to the second position. The proximal end of the second outer sleeve portion 63 passes through the pusher reset elastic member 32 and is clamped on the pusher groove 311 of the pusher 31. When the pusher 31 moves, the outer sleeve 6 is driven to move synchronously. In the initial state, the pusher 31 is in the second position ( Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown) and drives the nail magazine assembly 72 to open relative to the nail anvil 71 (as described in 6), when the push member 31 moves toward the first position (in response to the trigger 2 Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1 , the pusher 31 drives the outer sleeve 6 to move toward the distal end, so that the nail magazine assembly 72 is closed relative to the nail anvil 71 ( Figure 8 shown).

[0063] The clamping locking assembly 5 can keep the pushing member 31 in the first position, and includes an operating portion 51 at least partially exposed to the handle 1, a clamping locking member 52 connected to the operating portion 51 and rotatably arranged on the handle 1, and a clamping locking member resetting elastic member 53 connected between the handle 1 and the clamping locking member 52 and making the clamping locking member 52 always have a tendency to move toward the locked position. When the clamping locking member 52 is in the locked position ( Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1 , the clamping locking member 52 abuts against the push member 31 and prevents the push member 31 from moving toward the proximal end, and the push member 31 is in the first position. Specifically, as Fig.11 As shown, the pushing member 31 has an abutment step 312. When the clamping locking member 52 is in the locked position, the clamping locking member 52 abuts against the side of the abutment step 312. When the operating part 51 is operated, the clamping locking member 52 can rotate in the direction away from the abutment step 312 (upward in this embodiment) to release the lock on the pushing member 31.

[0064] The drive assembly also includes a second drive assembly 4 configured to generate a firing action in response to the trigger 2. The second drive assembly 4 includes a firing rod 41 connected to the nail push rod 74, a firing block 44 for driving the firing rod 41 to move, a first connecting member 42 connected to the firing block 44 at one end and connected to the trigger 2 at the other end, a second connecting member 43 operably engaged with the firing block 44, and a firing rod reset elastic member 45, which allows the firing rod 41 to always have a tendency to move toward the initial position. The second connecting member 43 is synchronously connected to the clamping locking member 52 in rotation. When the clamping locking member 52 is in the locking position, the second connecting member 43 limits the firing block 44 to the firing rod abutment portion 411 of the firing rod 41, and the trigger 2 is operated. Driven by the first connecting member 42, the firing block 44 can drive the firing rod 41 to complete the firing action; when the clamping locking member 52 is disengaged from the locking position, the second connecting member 43 disconnects the firing block 44 from the firing rod 41, and the firing action cannot be completed even if the trigger 2 is operated. That is, when the nail magazine assembly 72 is opened, the trigger 2 can drive the first driving assembly 3 to close the nail magazine assembly 72, and the firing action cannot be achieved at this time. When the nail magazine assembly 72 is closed, the trigger 2 can be operated to complete the firing action.

[0065] The trigger 2 is rotatably connected to the handle 1 and a trigger reset elastic member 21 is provided between the trigger 2 and the handle 1. The trigger reset elastic member 21 ensures that the end of the trigger 2 that is engaged with the pushing member 31 always has a tendency to move away from the pushing member 31, that is, when the force applied to the trigger 2 is cancelled, the trigger 2 can be reset under the action of the trigger reset elastic member 21.

[0066] In this embodiment, the stapler further includes a steering mechanism 8 disposed on the handle 1 and configured to control the rotation of the end effector 7. Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, the steering mechanism 8 includes an exposed and operably rotatable steering knob 81, a steering wheel 82 connected to the steering knob 81, a connecting seat 83 connected to the steering wheel 82, an eccentric shaft 84 disposed on the connecting seat 83 and not coaxial with the steering wheel 82, a push rod assembly movably disposed in the outer sleeve 6 and connected to the end effector 7, and a sliding member 87 connected to the push rod assembly, the eccentric shaft 84 rotatably and slidably disposed in a sliding member slot 871 of the sliding member 87, when the steering knob 81 is operated to rotate, the eccentric shaft 84 rotates and drives the sliding member 87 to move along the axial direction of the outer sleeve 6, thereby driving the push rod assembly to rotate with the end effector 7. Further, the push rod assembly includes a steering rod 85 and a sleeve 86 movably disposed in the outer sleeve 6. The steering rod 85 is connected to the sleeve 86 and has a waist-shaped groove at its distal end. The steering shaft of the nail anvil 711 is rotatably and slidably arranged in the waist-shaped groove. The sleeve 86 is connected to the sliding member 87 and moves synchronously with the sliding member 87.

[0067] The steering mechanism 8 further includes a steering wheel reset elastic member 88 disposed between the steering wheel 82 and the steering knob 81 and causing the steering wheel 82 to have a downward movement tendency, and a positioning disc 89 fixedly disposed between the steering wheel 82 and the connecting seat 83. The positioning disc 89 has a plurality of recessed portions 891 extending along its radial direction on one side facing the steering wheel 82, and a convex portion 821 matching the recessed portions 891 on one end of the steering wheel 82 facing the positioning disc 89. When the steering knob 81 is rotated, the convex portion 821 can overcome the elastic force of the steering wheel reset elastic member 88 and enter another recessed portion 891 from one recessed portion 891 of the positioning disc 89. When the convex portion 821 enters another recessed portion 891 from one recessed portion 891 of the positioning disc 89, a click sound is emitted. The design of the recessed portion 891 facilitates the operator to identify the rotation angle.

[0068] In this embodiment, the stapler further includes a steering lock mechanism capable of locking the rotation angle of the end effector, and the steering lock mechanism includes a steering lock member 91 slidably disposed in the outer sleeve 6 and capable of being inserted into the teeth 7111 to lock the end effector, and a steering lock elastic member 92 that allows the steering lock member 91 to always move in a direction close to the teeth 7111. The steering lock member 91 has an unlocking protrusion, and the outer sleeve 6 has an unlocking mating portion that matches the unlocking protrusion. When the outer sleeve 6 moves toward the proximal end, the unlocking mating portion abuts against the unlocking protrusion and drives the steering lock member 91 to move in a direction away from the teeth 7111, thereby releasing the lock on the end effector, and operating the steering mechanism 8 can realize the steering of the end effector; when the outer sleeve 6 moves toward the distal end, under the action of the steering lock elastic member 92, the steering lock member 91 moves in a direction close to the teeth 7111 until it is inserted into the teeth 7111, and the end effector is locked and cannot be turned.

[0069] The operating principle of the above stapler is as follows:

[0070] In the initial state, under the action of the push member reset elastic member 32, the push member 31 is in the second position, at this time, the first matching block 612 of the outer sleeve 6 abuts against the second matching block 7211 of the nail magazine assembly 72, and the nail magazine assembly 72 is in the open state (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the trigger 2 is operated, the trigger 2 rotates and pushes the push member 31 to overcome the force of the push member reset elastic member 32 to move toward the distal end to the first position. Driven by the push member 31, the outer sleeve 6 moves toward the distal end synchronously, and the first matching block 612 releases the abutment force on the second matching block 7211, and the nail magazine assembly 72 moves to the closed state. At this time, under the action of the clamping locking member reset elastic member 53, the clamping locking member 52 moves to the locking position and abuts on the push member 31 to prevent the push member 31 from moving toward the proximal end, so that the nail magazine assembly 72 remains in the closed state (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown), the locking member 52 is clamped and closed so that the second connecting member 43 abuts the firing block 44 to limit the abutment of the firing rod, and the trigger 2 is operated again, the trigger 2 rotates and causes the firing block 44 to drive the firing rod 41 to complete the firing action.

[0071] The operating portion 51 of the clamping locking assembly 5 is rotated upward, and the clamping locking member 52 is rotated upward and disengaged from the locking position. Under the action of the push member reset elastic member 32, the push member 31 drives the outer sleeve 6 to move toward the proximal end to the initial position, and the nail magazine assembly 72 is opened.

[0072] The stapler has at least the following advantages:

[0073] (1) The I-beam tool holder is eliminated without damaging the tissue structure. The trigger 2 drives the first drive assembly 3 to drive the outer sleeve 6 to move, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the anvil 71 and the nail magazine assembly 72. At the same time, the clamping locking assembly 5 can be provided to realize automatic locking of the closed state. After the lock is released, the first drive assembly 3 can drive the outer sleeve 6 to automatically reset.

[0074] (2) The anvil 71 and the nail magazine assembly 72 can be opened or closed at any swing angle.

[0075] (3) By fixing the anvil 71 and movably arranging the nail magazine assembly 72, it is convenient to insert the anvil 71 into a narrow tissue gap, and at the same time, less trauma is caused to the patient.

[0076] (4) Both the firing action and the opening and closing action can be achieved by operating the trigger 2, which has a simple structure and is easy to use.
