Detailed implementation manners

[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further introduced in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] As Figures 1-5 shown, an ablation electrode with a bendable ablation head provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a hand-held cylinder 1. A nut 4 is rotatably connected to the top end of the hand-held cylinder 1. A stud 5 is threadedly connected inside the nut 4. An electrode needle 3 is fixed inside the stud 5. A slide block 12 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the stud 5. A slide groove 13 is formed in the inner wall of one side of the hand-held cylinder 1. The slide block 12 slides inside the slide groove 13. A guide sleeve 2 is fixed to the bottom end of the hand-held cylinder 1. The electrode needle 3 is inserted into the guide sleeve 2. The bottom end of the electrode needle 3 extends out of the guide sleeve 2. The bottom end of the electrode needle 3 is provided with a first elastic bend 6 and a second elastic bend 7. Both the first elastic bend 6 and the second elastic bend 7 are adapted to the guide sleeve 2.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, it includes a hand-held cylinder 1. The cross-section of the hand-held cylinder 1 is circular. A nut 4 is rotatably connected to the top end of the hand-held cylinder 1. A stud 5 is threadedly connected inside the nut 4. The bottom end of the stud 5 extends into the hand-held cylinder 1. An electrode needle 3 is fixed inside the stud 5. The electrode needle 3 is an electrode component of an existing ablation electrode. A slide block 12 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the stud 5. A slide groove 13 is formed in the inner wall of one side of the hand-held cylinder 1. The slide block 12 slides inside the slide groove 13, so that when the nut 4 is rotated, the stud 5 can drive the electrode needle 3 to move up and down. A guide sleeve 2 is fixed to the bottom end of the hand-held cylinder 1. The electrode needle 3 is inserted into the guide sleeve 2. The bottom end of the electrode needle 3 extends out of the guide sleeve 2. The part of the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 extending out of the guide sleeve 2 is the ablation head. The bottom end of the electrode needle 3 is provided with a first elastic bend 6 and a second elastic bend 7. The first elastic bend 6 and the second elastic bend 7 make the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 in a bent state in the natural state. Both the first elastic bend 6 and the second elastic bend 7 are adapted to the guide sleeve 2, and the parts of the first elastic bend 6 and the second elastic bend 7 can be retracted into the guide sleeve 2 through the movement of the electrode needle 3. When the electrode needle 3 extends out of the guide sleeve 2, the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 returns to the bent state of the first elastic bend 6 and the second elastic bend 7 through elastic recovery.

[0024] The ablation electrode with a bendable ablation head provided by the utility model drives the movement of the stud 5 by rotating the nut 4, so that the electrode needle 3 can extend out of the guide sleeve 2 and achieve the effect of keeping the bend of the electrode needle 3 unchanged, without the doctor's hand needing to maintain a pressing state, thus making it more convenient for the doctor to use the ablation electrode.

[0025] In another embodiment provided by the utility model, a connecting ring 14 is integrally formed at the top end of the hand-held cylinder 1. An annular cavity 15 is formed on the outer wall of the bottom of the nut 4. The connecting ring 14 is located inside the annular cavity 15, so that the nut 4 can rotate outside the connecting ring 14. An annular groove 16 is formed on the outer wall of the connecting ring 14. The annular groove 16 is opened along the outer circle of the connecting ring 14. An installation hole 19 is formed on the outer wall of the stud 5. A limiting column 17 is inserted inside the installation hole 19. One end of the limiting column 17 extends into the annular groove 16, so that the limiting column 17 plays a role in limiting the nut 4, and thus the nut 4 can only rotate outside the connecting ring 14. One end of the limiting column 17 is integrally formed with a semi-circular end 18. The semi-circular end 18 is adapted to the annular groove 16. By using the cooperation of the semi-circular end 18 and the annular groove 16, the rotation of the nut 4 is more stable. A limiting platform 20 is naturally formed between the connecting ring 14 and the hand-held cylinder 1. The limiting platform 20 is adapted to the nut 4. When the outer wall of the bottom of the nut 4 contacts the limiting platform 20, at this time the installation hole 19 just corresponds to the annular groove 16. The limiting column 17 is inserted inside the installation hole 19 to realize the cooperation between the limiting column 17 and the annular groove 16, prevent the nut 4 from separating from the hand-held cylinder 1, and at the same time achieve the effect of convenient assembly of the nut 4 and the hand-held cylinder 1.

[0026] In another embodiment provided by the utility model, a hand-held surface 8 is arranged on the outer wall of the hand-held cylinder 1. An anti-slip pad 9 is bonded at the hand-held surface 8. The anti-slip pad 9 is made of rubber material. Through the hand-held surface 8, it is more comfortable for the doctor to hold the ablation electrode, and the anti-slip pad 9 makes the doctor hold the ablation electrode more firmly, preventing the phenomenon of slipping when operating the ablation electrode, and thus making the use of the ablation electrode more convenient; an electrode wire 10 is fixed at the top end of the stud 5. The electrode wire 10 is electrically connected to the electrode needle 3. The connection principle between the electrode wire 10 and the electrode needle 3 is the prior art. A protective sleeve 11 is fixed at the top end of the stud 5. The protective sleeve 11 is made of soft rubber material, and the protective sleeve 11 is sleeved outside the electrode wire 10. The bottom end of the protective sleeve 11 is fixed to the stud 5, so that when the connection between the electrode wire 10 and the stud 5 is bent, the electrode wire 10 can be supported by the protective sleeve 11, preventing the connection between the electrode wire 10 and the stud 5 from breaking and extending the service life of the ablation electrode.

[0027] Working principle: When it is necessary to adjust the protruding length of the electrode needle 3, keep the hand-held cylinder 1 fixed and rotate the nut 4, so that the nut 4 drives the stud 5 to move downward inside the hand-held cylinder 1, and then the stud 5 drives the electrode needle 3 to protrude from the inside of the guide sleeve 2. When the second elastic bend 7 first exposes the guide sleeve 2, the bend at the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 is smaller at this time, and the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 can maintain a fixed bend in the natural state; when both the second elastic bend 7 and the first elastic bend 6 are exposed, the bend at the bottom end of the electrode needle 3 is larger at this time.

[0028] Only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration above. Undoubtedly, for those of ordinary skill in the art, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
