The elastic tube 24 is arranged between the tube body 9 and the extrusion end 13 to play a buffering role, avoiding direct contact between the extrusion end 13 and the tube body 9 and causing wear, thereby increasing the service life of the tube body 9.

[0044] In one embodiment, the sheath cap 4 is spirally assembled on the sheath body 1 , which has a simple structure, is easy to design and manufacture, and is convenient to assemble and disassemble.

[0045] The working principle of the medical guide sheath of the embodiment of the utility model is as follows:

[0046] Before guiding the soft mirror into the human body, the sheath cap 4 is first screwed onto the sheath body 1, and then the soft mirror is inserted into the driving cap 5 from the fifth channel 15 of the driving cap 5. The soft mirror passes through the fifth channel 15, the fourth channel 14, the third channel 10 and the second channel 6 in sequence into the first channel 2 of the sheath body 1, and then enters the designated position of the human body along the first channel 2. Then, the driving cap 5 is tightened so that the extrusion end 13 squeezes the hose 3 downward. When the hose 3 is deformed, the inner diameter of the third channel 10 becomes smaller, so that the channel wall of the third channel 10 is tightly fitted with the outer periphery of the soft mirror, thereby achieving sealing between the sheath cap 4 and the soft mirror.

[0047] According to the medical guide sheath of the embodiment of the utility model, the driving member can drive the extrusion member 12 to move back and forth in the second channel 6, and can adjust the compression amount of the hose 3 by the extrusion end 13 of the extrusion member 12 according to the specific specifications of the soft mirror, thereby changing the deformation amount of the hose 3. During the deformation of the hose 3, the diameter of the third channel 10 in the hose 3 also changes accordingly, so that the third channel 10 can be in close contact with the outer periphery of the soft mirror, thereby realizing the sealing between the hose 3 and the soft mirror, so that the sheath cap 4 can better adapt to the soft mirror, thereby improving the sealing effect between the sheath cap 4 and the soft mirror.

[0048] In other embodiments, the extrusion member 12 may be a plurality of extrusion rods connected to the driving cap 5 .

[0049] In other embodiments, the tube body 9 and the elastic tube 24 are designed as one piece.

[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
