Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and specifically, to a wire cutting assembly and a wire cutting device. Background Art

[0002] Endoscopic resection of gastrointestinal lesions is one of the most common surgeries in the digestive department at present, including techniques such as endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). All resection methods may cause relatively large defects, thereby causing perforation or bleeding. Multiple studies have shown that selective prophylactic closure of resection defects can reduce the incidence of postoperative perforation and bleeding, which can be achieved through TTSC (through-the-scope clips), OTSC (over-the-scope clips), or endoscopic suturing.

[0003] TTSC is limited to repairing mucosal tissue, has low closing force, and requires multiple clips. OTSC can repair full-thickness gastrointestinal defects, but it has an unsatisfactory closure for defects larger than 20 mm or with inflamed or necrotic edges. In addition, OTSC requires removing the endoscope to install the OverStitch device and reinserting it into the target position, and it requires the use of a dual-channel endoscope and cannot be used in the right colon. Therefore, in such cases, an endoscopic stapling system is usually required to overcome these limitations.

[0004] The endoscopic stapling system generally includes a release device and a wire cutting device. The release device is used to implant a staple assembly into human tissue, and a suture is connected to the staple assembly. The wire cutting device is used to cut the suture to end the operation. The wire cutting device usually includes an inner cylinder member and an outer cylinder member. Tangent openings are provided on the inner cylinder member and the outer cylinder member, and the suture passes through the two tangent openings. When the suture needs to be cut, the operator needs to drive the inner cylinder member to move relative to the outer cylinder member through a driving wire to cut the suture. However, in the prior art, a limiting hole is usually provided on the inner cylinder member, and there is a joint at the end of the driving wire, which is clamped in the limiting hole through the joint. If the joint is too small, there is a risk that the joint will disengage from the limiting hole during the process of pulling the inner cylinder member, resulting in the failure of the wire cutting operation.

[0052] See Figures 1 to 11 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a wire cutting assembly 400, including: a wire fixing mechanism, a wire cutting mechanism 430, and a driving wire 440. The wire fixing mechanism includes a first wire fixing member 410 and a second wire fixing member 420. The first wire fixing member 410 has a through slot 411. The second wire fixing member 420 can be connected to the first wire fixing member 410 to close the opening of the slot 411. The wire cutting mechanism 430 includes an inner cylinder member 431 and an outer cylinder member 432. The inner cylinder member 431 can be sleeved on the first wire fixing member 410. The inner cylinder member 431 has a first wire cutting opening 43111 and two wire holes 43131. The outer cylinder member 432 is sleeved outside the inner cylinder member 431. The outer cylinder member 432 has a second wire cutting opening 4321. The driving wire 440 has two long wires 441. One ends of the two long wires 441 are used to connect to a pulling end, and the other ends of the two long wires 441 are connected. The two long wires 441 pass through the outer cylinder member 432 and the inner cylinder member 431, and the two long wires 441 are respectively arranged through the two wire holes 43131. The wire cutting assembly 400 has a pre-cut state and a post-cut state. In the pre-cut state, as Figure 2 shown, the two long wires 441 pass through the slot 411 and are limited by the second wire fixing member 420. In the post-cut state, as Figure 5 and Figure 10 shown, the two long wires 441 are separated from the second wire fixing member 420 and are limited on the two wire holes 43131 of the inner cylinder member 431.

[0053] In the pre-cut state, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 as shown, the first wire fixing member 410 and the second wire fixing member 420 are separated. The wire conduit 600 sequentially passes through the mouth of the wire slot 411, the first cutting port 43111 and the second cutting port 4321. The suture 500 is threaded through the wire conduit 600, and finally the wire conduit 600 is taken out. The suture 500 sequentially passes through the mouth of the wire slot 411, the first cutting port 43111 and the second cutting port 4321. When the suture 500 needs to be cut, the operator pulls the driving wire 440. The driving wire 440 first drives the second wire fixing member 420 to move to the first wire fixing member 410, so that the first wire fixing member 410 and the second wire fixing member 420 are connected and fixed, and the suture 500 is clamped and fixed, as Figure 4 shown. Continuing to pull the driving wire 440, the driving wire 440 will disengage from the second wire fixing member and be limited to the two wire holes 43131 of the inner cylinder member 431. Because the two filament ends of the driving wire 440 are connected and fixed, therefore, it will not easily disengage from the inner cylinder member 431, as Figure 5 shown. Under the driving action of the driving wire 440, referring to Figure 6 as shown, the inner cylinder member 431 slides relative to the outer cylinder member 432, and the first cutting port 43111 and the second cutting port 4321 cooperate to cut the suture. At this time, the wire fixing mechanism stays inside the human body with the suture 500. The outer cylinder member 432 is connected and fixed to the elastic tube 2 of the wire cutting device, and the inner cylinder member 431 and the outer cylinder member 432 are in clearance fit. After cutting the suture 500, the operator takes out the elastic tube 2 from the insertion channel of the endoscope to complete the operation.

[0054] Two wire holes 43131 are provided on the inner cylinder member 431 of the wire cutting assembly 400 of the present application. The driving wire 440 is arranged through the two wire holes 43131. During the process of cutting the suture 500, the filaments 441 are limited to the two limiting holes and will not disengage from the inner cylinder member 431, with high reliability and good product quality stability.

[0055] In some possible implementation manners, the inner cylinder member 431 includes a cylinder body. Two wire holes 43131 can be directly provided on the cylinder body, or the inner cylinder member 431 further includes a limiting member 4313, as Figure 3 and Figure 11 shown. The cylinder body has a cylinder cavity. The limiting member 4313 is accommodated in the cylinder cavity. The cylinder body restricts the limiting member 4313 from disengaging from the cylinder cavity. Two of the wire holes 43131 are provided on the limiting member 4313. The two filaments 441 are threaded through the cylinder cavity and respectively pass through the corresponding wire holes 43131.

[0056] Combined with Figure 3 and Figure 8As shown, the cylinder includes a cylinder wall 4311, one end of the cylinder wall 4311 is open, and the other end is provided with an end plate 4312, the open end of the cylinder wall 4311 can be sleeved on the first wire fixing member 410, the end plate 4312 is provided with a through hole 43121, and the two filaments 441 respectively pass through the through holes 43121 on the end plate 4312, after the driving wire 440 is separated from the second wire fixing member 420, it can drive the limiting member 4313 to move, so that the limiting member 4313 can fit the end plate 4312, so as to continue to pull the inner cylinder member 431.

[0057] In some possible implementations, see Figure 11 As shown, the limiting member 4313 is in sheet shape, and the line hole 43131 penetrates the limiting member 4313 along the thickness direction of the limiting member 4313 .

[0058] The stopper 4313 may be a disc, and the outer diameter of the stopper 4313 is smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder wall 4311 and larger than the through hole 43121 on the end plate 4312. The stopper 4313 will not be separated from the cylinder through the through hole 43121.

[0059] The two filaments 441 are an integral piece. The filaments 441 pass through the two thread holes 43131 in sequence to form a double-filament structure.

[0060] The second wire fixing member 420 has a limiting groove 421, the driving wire 440 is bent to form an elbow 442, and the two sides of the elbow 442 are respectively two long wires 441, and the two long wires 441 both penetrate the limiting groove 421, and the elbow 442 is limited to the notch of the limiting groove 421. The elbow 442 is limited to the notch of the limiting groove 421. When the pulling force of the driving wire 440 is large enough, the elbow 442 of the driving wire 440 will be separated from the limiting groove 421.

[0061] In some possible implementations, the second wire fixing member 420 has a receiving groove 422 connected to the limiting groove 421, the limiting groove 421 and the receiving groove 422 cooperate to pass through the second wire fixing member 420, the inner diameter of the receiving groove 422 is larger than the inner diameter of the limiting groove 421, and the elbow 442 is accommodated in the receiving groove 422.

[0062] The wire cutting assembly 400 includes a plug 423 detachably connected to the second wire fixing member 420 to cover or open the notch of the accommodating groove 422 .

[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, the embodiment of the present application also provides a wire cutting device, including: a handle 1, an elastic tube 2, and the above-mentioned wire cutting assembly 400. One end of the elastic tube 2 is connected to the handle 1, the outer cylinder member 432 of the wire cutting assembly 400 is connected to the other end of the elastic tube 2, a cable is slidably disposed within the elastic tube 2, one end of the cable is drivingly connected to the drive wire 440, a sliding ring 5 is slidably disposed on the handle 1, and the sliding ring 5 is drivingly connected to the other end of the cable 4. The operator slides the sliding ring 5, causing the sliding ring 5 to move along the handle 1, thereby driving the drive wire 440 to move and perform a cutting action.
