Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of guiding catheters, in particular to an adjustable-bending guiding catheter. Background Art
[0002] A guiding catheter is a medical device used to assist other instruments to reach a specific part, mainly made of flexible plastic or metal. It can be inserted into the patient's body through a surgical incision or hole to guide other treatment instruments to the part that needs treatment.
[0003] The existing Chinese patent "an adjustable-bending microcatheter" with the publication number CN219501786U proposes to use the gears in the gear wire winding box to pull the wire, and then realize the bending operation of the catheter. However, in the actual use process, a soft head is required to complete the catheter bending. But since the head needs to enter the body for movement, it requires a certain hardness. The existing guiding catheters cannot balance the softness and hardness of the catheter head according to needs, and there are certain deficiencies in use. Therefore, we propose an adjustable-bending guiding catheter. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the deficiencies existing in the prior art, and propose an adjustable-bending guiding catheter.

[0006] An adjustable-bending guiding catheter includes a grip mechanism. The top of the grip mechanism is provided with an outer tube body. An inner tube body is fixed inside the outer tube body. One end of the inner tube body penetrates through the side surface of the outer tube body. A cavity is formed between the outer tube body and the inner tube body. A wire mesh sleeve and an annular sleeve are fixedly sleeved on the inner tube body. A sliding sleeve is arranged between the wire mesh sleeve and the inner wall of the outer tube body. A pull rope is slidably connected through the inside of the sliding sleeve. One end of the pull rope is provided with a steel ball, and the steel ball is fixed on the side surface of the annular sleeve. The pull rope is inserted into the grip mechanism.
[0007] Preferably, hydrophilic coatings are provided on the outer wall of the outer tube body and the inner wall of the inner tube body. The inner tube body is used to guide the surgical guide wire.
[0008] Preferably, the grip mechanism includes a mounting plate. A grip body is fixed on the side surface of the mounting plate. Motors are installed at both ends of the side surface of the grip body. The output shaft of the motor is inserted into the grip body and is provided with a winding roller. An anti-slip pad is fixedly sleeved on the grip body.
[0009] Preferably, the outer tube body is fixed on the side surface of the mounting plate. The pull rope penetrates through the mounting plate and the side surface of the grip body and is slidably connected therewith.
[0010] Preferably, the drawstring is connected to the winding roller, and the drawstring is wound on the winding roller.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0012] By providing a grip mechanism, the present utility model uses the motor and the winding roller in the grip mechanism to wind and unwind the drawstrings at both ends, enabling the device to be bent as needed. In the device, the wire mesh sleeve provides support for the main body part of the device, keeping the overall device properly supported. The annular sleeve is located at the head of the device, providing the necessary bending curvature while providing support. The device has a simple structure and is very convenient to use.

[0017] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0018] Refer to Figures 1-3, An adjustable bending guiding catheter, comprising a grip mechanism 1. At the top of the grip mechanism 1, an outer tube body 2 is installed. Inside the outer tube body 2, an inner tube body 3 is fixed. One end of the inner tube body 3 penetrates through the side surface of the outer tube body 2, and a cavity is formed between the outer tube body 2 and the inner tube body 3. A wire mesh sleeve 5 and an annular sleeve 6 are fixedly sleeved on the inner tube body 3. A sliding sleeve 4 is arranged between the wire mesh sleeve 5 and the inner wall of the outer tube body 2. A pull rope 8 is slidably connected through the inside of the sliding sleeve 4. One end of the pull rope 8 is installed with a steel ball 7, and the steel ball 7 is fixed on the side surface of the annular sleeve 6. The pull rope 8 is inserted into the inside of the grip mechanism 1. Hydrophilic coatings are provided on the outer wall of the outer tube body 2 and the inner wall of the inner tube body 3. The inner tube body 3 is used to guide the guide wire for surgery. The grip mechanism 1 includes a mounting plate 11. On the side surface of the mounting plate 11, a grip body 12 is fixed. At both ends of the side surface of the grip body 12, motors 14 are installed.
