Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical devices, in particular to a device for fixing and assembling a medical catheter and a traction wire. Background Art

[0002] A medical catheter is a medical device widely used in minimally invasive interventional diagnosis and treatment surgeries. Currently, in the actual use scenario of a medical catheter, after the catheter enters the human body, due to the natural path of blood vessels in the body, according to the requirements of the actual use scenario, some sections of the catheter need to be bent to a certain extent to adapt to the blood vessel path in the human body. Generally, the common solution is to add traction wires on both sides of the bending direction of the catheter. The traction wires are connected to the catheter, and a certain pulling force is applied to the traction wires. At this time, the catheter end forms a certain bend due to the pulling force.

[0003] Currently, in the actual production process, since the traction wires need to be fixed on both sides of the catheter, the current method of fixing the traction wires is that workers manually hold the two ends of the traction wires, and then use glue to fix the contact positions of the traction wires and the catheter. During the process of aligning the traction wires and the catheter, since it is a manual operation, the distance and height of the traction wires on both sides of the catheter relative to the catheter are subjectively judged by the workers visually, which is likely to cause large errors. When fixing the traction wires on the catheter, the tension of the traction wires is that the workers manually tighten the traction wires to make them taut, and then perform glue-pointing fixation. More than a dozen glue-pointing operations need to be repeated on one catheter. During this process, due to the manual operation, the distance, height, and tension of the traction wires will result in inconsistent pulling forces, and the positions of the traction wires will shift, ultimately affecting the finished product, making the redundant bending amounts of the catheter inconsistent and resulting in different bending degrees of the finished product. Summary of the Utility Model

Embodiment 1

[0024] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present utility model provides a device for fixing and assembling a medical catheter and a traction wire, including a bottom plate 1, a catheter unit 2, and a traction wire 3. On both sides of the bottom plate 1 near the end positions, there is respectively provided an adjustment assembly 4 for adjusting the height, spacing, and tension of the traction wire 3. On the bottom plate 1, there are also provided several fixing units 5 for fixing the catheter unit 2. After the traction wire 3 and the catheter unit 2 are fixed by the adjustment assembly 4 and the fixing units 5 respectively, the traction wire 3 and the catheter unit 2 are assembled by bonding with glue.

[0025] The adjustment assembly 4 includes an adjustment base 41, a height adjustment unit 42 provided on the adjustment base 41, and a spacing adjustment unit 43 provided on the adjustment base 41. At least two rotatable tensioners 44 are provided on the side of the adjustment base 41 near the end of the bottom plate 1, and the end of the traction wire 3 is fixed on the tensioners 44.

[0026] The height adjustment unit 42 includes at least two height adjustment bolts 421 movably provided on the adjustment base 41 and a height adjustment plate 422 fixed on the height adjustment bolts 421. Specifically, use a wrench to rotate the height adjustment bolts 421 to move up and down, and the height adjustment bolts 421 drive the height adjustment plate 422 to move up and down synchronously. Adjustment holes 4221 for passing the traction wire 3 are provided on both sides of the height adjustment plate 422.

[0027] The spacing adjustment unit 43 includes fixing plates 431 fixed on both sides of the adjustment base 41 and spacing adjustment bolts 432 movably provided on the fixing plates 431. A spacing adjustment member 433 is fixedly provided at the end of the spacing adjustment bolts 432. Specifically, the surface of the spacing adjustment member 433 away from the spacing adjustment bolts 432 is a traction wire contact surface 4331. Use a wrench to rotate the spacing adjustment bolts 432 to move horizontally, and the spacing adjustment bolts 432 drive the spacing adjustment member 433 to move horizontally, and the spacing adjustment member 433 squeezes the traction wire 3 inward to adjust the spacing of the traction wire 3.

[0028] When the distance between the two traction wires 3 after passing through the adjustment holes 4221 is greater than the diameter of the catheter 21, use a wrench to rotate the two distance adjustment bolts 432 respectively to make them all move inward. After the traction wire contact surface 4331 contacts the traction wire 3, continue to rotate the two distance adjustment bolts 432 inward until the distance between the two traction wires 3 is the same as the diameter of the catheter 21, and the traction wire 3 contacts the outer surface of the catheter 21; when the distance between the two traction wires 3 after passing through the adjustment holes 4221 is less than the diameter of the catheter 21, the distance adjustment unit 43 is not required to adjust the distance between the two traction wires 3.

[0029] Both ends of the traction wire 3 are respectively fixed on the tensioners 44 at both ends of the bottom plate 1. The tensioners 44 are provided with through holes 441 for passing the traction wire 3 and screw holes 442 for installing the tightening screws. After the end of the traction wire 3 is fixed, use a wrench to rotate the tensioner 44 outward. During the process of rotating outward, a tensioning force is applied to the traction wire 3 to achieve the effect of tensioning the traction wire 3.

[0030] The fixing unit 5 includes a chuck 51 for clamping the catheter unit 2 and a guide block 52 cooperating with the chuck 51. The guide block 52 is provided with a V-shaped groove 521 for placing the catheter unit 2. The chuck 51 is a common technical tool in this field, and the method of fixing the catheter 21 by the chuck 51 is also a means that those skilled in the art can easily think of and operate, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0031] The catheter unit 2 includes a catheter 21 and a core needle 22 disposed inside the catheter 21.

[0032] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: One end of the traction wire 3 is fixed on the tensioner 44 on one side of the bottom plate 1. The specific fixing method is to pass the end of the traction wire 3 through the perforation 441 on the tensioner 44, and screw a screw into the screw hole 442. The end of the screw presses the traction wire 3 against and fixes it on the inner wall of the tensioner 44. The other end of the traction wire 3 passes through the adjustment hole 4221 on the height adjustment plate 422 and between the two spacing adjustment members 433 in sequence, and then the other end of the traction wire 3 passes through between the two spacing adjustment members 433 on the other side of the bottom plate 1 and the adjustment hole 4221 on the height adjustment plate 422 in sequence, and the other end of the traction wire 3 is fixed on the tensioner 44 on the other side of the bottom plate 1 in the same way. Two traction wires 3 are required to bend the catheter 21, so the other traction wire 3 is fixed on the device in the same way. After the traction wires 3 are fixed, the four tensioners 44 at both ends of the bottom plate 1 are respectively screwed outward with a wrench to apply the same torque, and a tensioning force is applied to the traction wires 3 to achieve the tensioning of the traction wires 3. The control of the torque value can be determined according to the number of turns of the wrench for screwing the tensioner 44. Then the catheter unit 2 is placed in the V-shaped groove 521, and the catheter unit 2 is fixed with the chuck 51. According to the height of the position where the catheter 21 is located, the height adjustment bolts 421 on both sides of the bottom plate 1 are screwed up and down with a wrench. The height adjustment bolts 421 drive the height adjustment plate 422 to move up and down, and adjust until the heights of the two traction wires 3 are both consistent with the height of the central axis of the catheter 21. Then, according to the diameter and width of the catheter 21, the spacing adjustment bolts 432 on both sides of the bottom plate 1 are screwed horizontally with a wrench, so that the spacing adjustment member 433 drives the traction wire 3 in contact with the traction wire contact surface 4331 to move horizontally, and adjusts until the traction wire 3 is parallel to the surface of the catheter 21 and in contact with the surface of the catheter 21. Finally, the traction wire 3 and the catheter 21 are bonded and fixed with glue.

[0033] The advantages of the present utility model are as follows: By adjusting the assembly 4 to adjust the position and state of the fixed traction wire 3, the present utility model firstly solves the problem of inconsistent tension of the traction wire 3. The tensioner 44 is used to apply a tensioning force to the traction wire 3 to ensure that the tension of the traction wire 3 is consistent before fixing. Secondly, for catheters 21 of different sizes, the function of adjusting the spacing of the traction wire 3 is added. Since the traction wire 3 and the catheter 21 are controlled to the corresponding positions before bonding, the subsequent dispensing efficiency is greatly improved. Embodiment 2

[0034] Different from Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the screwing methods of the tensioner 44, the height adjustment bolt 421, and the spacing adjustment bolt 432 all adopt a servo motor to set the torque value, and then the tensioner 44, the height adjustment bolt 421, and the spacing adjustment bolt 432 are automatically screwed through accessories. This is a technical method that is easy to think of and operate by those skilled in the art, so it will not be elaborated here. Other structural components and working principles are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
