Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of surgical instruments, and in particular to a loading structure and a surgical instrument for loading a heart valve stent. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, minimally invasive solutions have been developed to facilitate catheter-based implantation of prostheses, such as transcatheter active valve prosthesis implantation. Typically, during transcatheter prosthesis implantation, the prosthesis is radially retracted onto a delivery catheter so that the prosthesis can be introduced into a body cavity, such as into the femoral artery, brachial artery, or aorta, or into a body cavity, such as a cardiac chamber (e.g., ventricle). The retracted configuration of the prosthesis on the delivery catheter can be maintained by a retaining sleeve positioned on the prosthesis. Using the delivery catheter, the prosthesis can be guided through the body cavity or body cavity to the desired implantation site. Once the prosthesis has traveled to the desired target site, the prosthesis can be deployed by removing the retaining sleeve and allowing the prosthesis to expand, for example, by balloon expansion or self-expansion.

[0003] Specifically, the above-mentioned prosthesis is, for example, a heart valve stent. Before the heart valve stent is delivered to the target position of the human body, it is often kept in a contracted state and arranged in a surgical instrument.

[0004] However, there is at least one of the following problems in the related technology: in the process of installing the heart valve stent on the fixing seat, the operator often directly touches the heart valve stent to install it on the fixing seat. However, since the heart valve stent is easily deformed due to the influence of temperature, it receives the temperature transmitted by the human body's hands and deforms from a contracted state to an open state, resulting in it being unable to be successfully accommodated in the sheath of the surgical instrument. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem solved by the utility model is that during the process of installing the heart valve stent on the fixing seat, the heart valve stent is often installed on the fixing seat by direct contact of the operator. However, since the heart valve stent is easily deformed due to the influence of temperature, it receives the temperature transmitted by the human body's hands and deforms from a contracted state to an open state, resulting in the inability to be successfully accommodated in the sheath of the surgical instrument.

[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a loading structure for loading a heart valve stent, and the loading structure is used to transfer the heart valve stent to a fixed seat of a surgical instrument; the loading structure includes: a mating sleeve, the mating sleeve is provided with a mating hole for movably mating with a transmission shaft of the surgical instrument; a accommodating body, the accommodating body is provided on the outer surface of the mating sleeve, and the accommodating space formed between the accommodating body and the mating sleeve is used to accommodate the heart valve stent; wherein, when the loading structure loaded with the heart valve stent moves to form a first mating position with the fixed seat, the heart valve stent is installed to the fixed seat.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: based on the actual loading situation of the loading structure, the heart valve stent is first placed in the accommodating space, and then the relative position of the loading structure relative to the fixed seat is adjusted so that the loading opening of the loading structure corresponding to the accommodating space is set toward the direction of the fixed seat, the matching sleeve is sleeved onto the transmission shaft, and moved along the axis of the transmission shaft in the direction close to the fixed seat, and finally fine-tuned to the first matching position, thereby achieving the effect of smoothly installing the heart valve stent to the fixed seat. During the movement of the heart valve stent, the operator directly applies thrust to the loading structure, which effectively avoids direct contact with the heart valve stent. On the one hand, it effectively avoids the risk of human body temperature directly affecting the heart valve stent and causing deformation due to temperature changes, thereby ensuring that a steady temperature environment is provided for the heart valve stent during the movement of the heart valve stent. On the other hand, since the heart valve stent is a precision structure, if the heart valve stent is directly touched by hand, the force applied by the hand to the heart valve stent is difficult to maintain consistent for a long time, which can easily cause damage to the structure of the heart valve stent. Therefore, by installing the heart valve stent into the accommodating space of the loading structure and through the cooperation of the matching sleeve and the transmission shaft, stable transportation of the heart valve stent is achieved.

[0008] In one example of the utility model, the containing body is provided with a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other; the first end is provided with a connecting hole for accommodating a matching sleeve; a containing space is formed between the second end and the matching sleeve, and the second end has a loading opening for the heart valve stent to enter and exit.

[0009] In an example of the present invention, the second end is provided with a housing cavity corresponding to the housing space; the opening diameter of the housing cavity gradually increases in a direction from the first end to the second end.

[0010] In one example of the utility model, it includes: a second sleeve, which is coaxially arranged with the mating sleeve and is provided with an adjustment space for mating with the transmission shaft, and the second sleeve is arranged on a side of the first end away from the second end; a locking assembly, which is arranged on the surface of the second sleeve and is used to adjust the size of the adjustment space.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is: by setting a locking assembly on the second sleeve, the effect of adjusting the size of the adjustment space is achieved. Combined with the actual assembly of the loading structure on the transmission shaft, when the locking assembly adjusts the second sleeve to a locked state, it is fastened to the surface of the transmission shaft. At this time, the loading structure is fixed to the corresponding position of the transmission shaft, and when the second sleeve is adjusted to a loose state by the locking structure, the second sleeve can reciprocate on the surface of the transmission shaft. Therefore, combined with the cooperation of the above-mentioned locking assembly and the second sleeve, the effect of adapting the loading structure to transmission shafts of different diameters can be achieved.

[0012] In one example of the utility model, one side of the second sleeve is provided with an adjustment notch connected to the adjustment space; the locking assembly is arranged at a position of the second sleeve corresponding to the adjustment notch, and is used to tighten or loosen the adjustment diameter of the adjustment space corresponding to the second sleeve.

[0013] In an example of the present invention, the second sleeve and the locking assembly form a clamp structure.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the mating sleeve is slidably connected to the first end portion.

[0015] In an example of the utility model, a matching protrusion extending along the axial direction of the matching sleeve is provided on the surface of the matching sleeve; and a sliding groove matching with the matching protrusion is provided at the first end portion.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is as follows: through the mutual cooperation between the sliding groove and the mating protrusion, the relative rotation between the mating sleeve and the first end is effectively avoided, thereby affecting the smooth installation of the heart valve stent to the fixed seat.

[0017] On the other hand, the utility model further provides a surgical instrument, comprising: a loading structure as in any of the above examples.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is: it can achieve the technical effect corresponding to any of the above-mentioned technical solutions, which will not be repeated here.

[0019] In one example of the utility model, the fixing seat is provided with opposite clamping ends and elastic buckling ends; one end of the heart valve stent is provided with a clamping groove portion matching with the clamping end, and the other end is provided with a matching end adapted to the buckling spacing of the elastic buckling end.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the technical effect achieved by adopting this technical solution is that the effect of smoothly fixing the heart valve stent to the fixing seat is improved.

[0021] After adopting the technical solution of the utility model, the following technical effects can be achieved:

[0022] On the one hand, it effectively avoids the risk of human body temperature directly affecting the heart valve stent and causing deformation due to temperature changes, which ensures that a steady temperature environment is provided for the heart valve stent during the movement of the heart valve stent; on the other hand, since the heart valve stent is a precision structure, if the heart valve stent is directly touched by hand, the force applied by the hand to the heart valve stent is difficult to maintain consistent for a long time, which can easily cause damage to the structure of the heart valve stent. Therefore, by installing the heart valve stent into the accommodating space of the loading structure, and through the cooperation of the matching sleeve and the transmission shaft, stable transportation of the heart valve stent is achieved.
