Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a catheter sheath assembly. Background Art
[0002] During vascular interventional treatment, relevant medical devices are introduced into the human vascular system. Among them, the catheter insertion sheath, referred to as the catheter sheath, also known as the vascular sheath, is a professional interventional medical device that establishes an access channel from the skin to the vascular cavity to facilitate repeated delivery or exchange of instruments into the blood vessels, and protects the punctured blood vessels during the repeated entry and exit of the instruments. The operation of establishing an access channel from the skin to the vascular cavity through the catheter sheath is as follows: first, use a puncture needle to make a small opening in the artery or vein, then introduce the guide wire into the artery or vein through the inner cavity of the puncture needle, and remove the puncture needle. Pass the dilator tube through the catheter sheath seat into the sheath tube, and then lock the dilator with the catheter sheath and guide them into the artery or vein together through the guide wire. After the sheath tube is fixed in position, withdraw the dilator, and finally the catheter sheath forms a channel for entering, exiting or replacing various interventional equipment.
[0003] In the prior art, the dilator and the catheter sheath are locked and unlocked by spirally connecting the dilator seat and the catheter sheath seat. Although this connection method has the advantage of simple connection, it makes it difficult for the dilator seat and the catheter sheath seat to be stably locked unless the spiral reaches the thread. In addition, the operator needs to keep rotating the spiral, which also causes cumbersome operation.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a catheter sheath assembly that can be flexibly locked, stably locked, and easily operated. Utility Model Content

[0034] The present application provides a catheter sheath assembly for establishing a percutaneous channel to a blood vessel lumen, thereby facilitating repeated delivery or exchange of instruments into a blood vessel.
[0035] Specifically, the catheter sheath assembly includes a catheter sheath and a dilator. The dilator can be detachably inserted through the catheter sheath and can enter the artery or vein together with the catheter sheath. After the position of the catheter sheath is fixed, the dilator can be withdrawn in the proximal direction. Finally, the catheter sheath forms a channel for entering, exiting or replacing various interventional devices.
[0036] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The overall structure diagram and the exploded diagram of a catheter sheath assembly in the present application are shown respectively. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the catheter sheath includes a catheter sheath seat 1 and a sheath tube 4 connected to the catheter sheath seat 1, the dilator includes a dilator seat 2 and a dilator tube 5 connected to the dilator seat 2, the dilator tube 5 passes through the catheter sheath seat 1 and enters the sheath tube 4, that is, the catheter sheath can be sleeved on the outside of the dilator, and the dilator tube 5 and the sheath tube 4 can move relative to each other.
[0037] Furthermore, if Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the catheter sheath assembly further includes a displacement locking mechanism 3 , which is located between the catheter sheath seat 1 and the dilator seat 2 . The catheter sheath seat 1 and the dilator seat 2 are locked and unlocked relative to each other through the displacement locking mechanism 3 .
[0038] Specifically, if Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the displacement locking mechanism 3 includes a rotating shaft 31, an elastic body 32 and a main body 33.

The expander tube 5 can be sleeved in the second connecting portion 22 and connected to the second connecting portion 22 to achieve a stable connection between the expander seat 2 and the expander tube 5.
[0048] In some specific embodiments of the present application, the second connection portion 22 can be connected to the dilator tube 5 by bonding, welding, fixed connection, integral molding, etc. It is conceivable that no matter what connection method is used, as long as a stable connection between the dilator tube 5 and the second connection portion 22 can be achieved.
[0049] Furthermore, if Figure 5As shown, the expander seat 2 also includes a third matching portion 23, which is connected to the outer periphery of the second connecting portion 22. The third matching portion 23 is provided with a second through hole 21 and a third through hole 24.

On the one hand, the circumferential rotation of the catheter sheath seat 1 and the dilator seat 2 can be limited; on the other hand, the displacement locking mechanism 3 can be disengaged from the zigzag track of the first matching portion 11 by rotating the dilator seat 2 in a direction away from the recessed portion 26, thereby achieving unlocking of the catheter sheath seat 1 and the dilator seat 2.
[0052] In some preferred embodiments of the present application, the end of the dilator tube 5 away from the dilator seat 2 is a cone-like structure, and the inner diameter and outer diameter of the cone-like structure gradually decrease from the dilator seat 2 to the dilator tube 5 to achieve a good vascular dilation effect.
[0053] In some preferred embodiments of the present application, the inner diameter of the end of the sheath 4 away from the catheter sheath seat 1 matches the outer diameter of the dilator tube 5, so that the sheath 4 and the dilator tube 5 fit tightly, effectively avoiding the occurrence of dissection when puncturing the blood vessel, which causes harm and pain to the patient.
