[0035] In order to make the content of the present utility model easier to be clearly understood, the present utility model will be further described in detail below according to specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0036] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, an adjustable-angle tubular stapler includes a housing 1, a sleeve 2, a locking component 3, and a limit locking mechanism 4;

[0037] The sleeve 2 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, and end face teeth 5 arranged in sequence along the circumferential direction are provided on one end of the sleeve 2 connected to the housing 1, and tooth grooves 6 are provided between adjacent end face teeth 5;

[0038] The locking component 3 is slidably connected in the housing 1, and a clamping portion 7 is provided on the locking component 3, and the clamping portion 7 is used to be clamped into the tooth groove 6 when the locking component 3 slides towards the sleeve 2 and reaches the position;

[0039] The shape of the clamping portion 7 and the shape of the tooth groove 6 satisfy that when the sleeve 2 rotates, the groove wall of the tooth groove 6 abuts against the clamping portion 7 to push the locking component 3 to move away from the sleeve 2 and make the clamping portion 7 withdraw from the tooth groove 6;

[0040] The limiting and locking mechanism 4 is connected to the housing 1 and is used to lock the position of the locking component 3 when the engaging portion 7 is engaged in the tooth groove 6 to limit the engaging portion 7 from exiting the tooth groove 6. The limiting and locking mechanism 4 is also used to release the position lock of the locking component 3. Specifically, when the angle of the sleeve 2 needs to be adjusted, first, the limiting and locking mechanism 4 releases the position lock of the locking component 3 so that the locking component 3 can slide freely. Then, the sleeve 2 is rotated to the required angle. When the sleeve 2 rotates, the groove wall of the tooth groove 6 abuts against the engaging portion 7 and can push the locking component 3 to move away from the sleeve 2, thereby enabling the engaging portion 7 to exit the tooth groove 6. When the sleeve 2 rotates to the required angle, the locking component 3 slides towards the sleeve 2 until it is in place, so that the engaging portion 7 is engaged in the tooth groove 6. Then, the position of the locking component 3 is locked by the limiting and locking mechanism 4, thereby restricting the engaging portion 7 from exiting the tooth groove 6. At this time, the engaging portion 7 remains in the tooth groove 6, making the sleeve 2 unable to rotate, thereby limiting the angular position of the sleeve 2. The embodiment of the present application can adjust the angle of the sleeve 2 relative to the housing 1 according to the surgical needs, greatly improving the convenience of use.

[0041] As Figures 2 to 6 shown, the adjustable-angle tubular stapler may further include an elastic member 8. Among them, the housing 1 may have an abutting portion 9. The elastic member 8 is installed in the housing 1. One end of the elastic member 8 abuts against the abutting portion 9, and the other end of the elastic member 8 abuts against the locking component 3. The elastic member 8 is used to drive the locking component 3 to slide towards the sleeve 2, thereby enabling the engaging portion 7 to be engaged in the tooth groove 6. Specifically, the elastic member 8 always exerts a thrust towards the sleeve 2 on the locking component 3. Therefore, the engaging portion 7 on the locking component 3 always abuts against the end face teeth 5 on the sleeve 2. When the sleeve 2 rotates, the groove wall of the tooth groove 6 abuts against the engaging portion 7 and can push the locking component 3 to move away from the sleeve 2. At this time, the elastic member 8 is compressed and the engaging portion 7 exits the tooth groove 6. When the engaging portion 7 slides over the tooth crest of the end face teeth 5, the engaging portion 7 will be pushed by the elastic member 8 and engaged in the next tooth groove 6. In this embodiment, a receiving hole 10 is provided in the locking component 3, and a part of the elastic member 8 is inserted into the receiving hole 10. The elastic member 8 can be a spring.

[0042] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, the locking component 3 is located behind the sleeve 2 and is slidably connected in the housing 1 in the front-rear direction;

[0043] The engaging portion 7 is provided at the front end of the locking component 3;

[0044] The position limiting locking mechanism 4 is, for example but not limited to, the following structure, which includes a handle 11 and a position limiting block 12;

[0045] The handle 11 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 and has a locked position and an unlocked position during the rotation process;

[0046] The limit stopper 12 is connected to the handle 11. The limit stopper 12 is used to press against the rear end of the locking member 3 when the engaging portion 7 is engaged in the tooth groove 6 and the handle 11 is rotated to the locking position, thereby locking the position of the locking member 3 to limit the engaging portion 7 from exiting the tooth groove 6. The limit stopper 12 is also used to stagger with the rear end of the locking member 3 when the handle 11 is rotated to the unlocking position to release the position locking of the locking member 3. Specifically, the locking member 3 moves forward to the position under the drive of the elastic member 8 and the engaging portion 7 is engaged in the tooth groove 6. When the position of the locking member 3 needs to be locked, the handle 11 is rotated to the locking position. At this time, the limit stopper 12 on the handle 11 presses against the rear end of the locking member 3, so that the locking member 3 cannot retreat, and the engaging portion 7 cannot exit the tooth groove 6. Therefore, the sleeve 2 cannot rotate, thereby limiting the angle position of the sleeve 2. When the position lock needs to be released, the handle 11 is rotated to the unlocking position. At this time, the limit stopper 12 is offset from the rear end of the locking component 3, and the limit stopper 12 can retreat to allow the engaging portion 7 to exit the tooth groove 6. At this time, when the sleeve 2 is rotated, the groove wall of the tooth groove 6 abuts against the engaging portion 7 and can push the locking component 3 to move away from the sleeve 2, thereby allowing the engaging portion 7 to exit from the tooth groove 6, so that the sleeve 2 can rotate freely.

[0047] Specifically, the limit stop block 12 may also be provided with an inclined portion. In some embodiments, the elastic member 8 may not be installed. During the rotation of the handle 11 from the unlocking position to the locking position, the inclined portion may abut against the rear end of the locking component 3 to drive the locking component 3 to move forward toward the sleeve 2.

[0048] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the angle-adjustable tubular stapler may further include a reset torsion spring 13, which is installed between the housing 1 and the handle 11 and is used to drive the handle 11 to rotate to the unlocked position; specifically, when the handle 11 is released, the reset torsion spring 13 can drive the handle 11 to automatically reset to the unlocked position; further specifically, a sliding channel 14 extending in the front-to-back direction is provided in the housing 1, and the locking component 3 is slidably arranged in the sliding channel 14.

[0049] As Figure 6 , 7 shown, the tooth groove 6 is a conical groove that gradually becomes smaller from the groove opening to the groove bottom, the engaging portion 7 is a conical structure adapted to the shape of the tooth groove 6, and the groove bottom of the tooth groove 6, the tooth top of the end face teeth 5, and the top of the engaging portion 7 are all arc structures. The engaging portion 7 and the tooth groove 6 of this shape enable the engaging portion 7 to smoothly withdraw from one tooth groove 6 and engage with the next tooth groove 6 when the sleeve 2 rotates.

[0050] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, the sleeve 2 may include a tube body 15 and a tube head 16; wherein, the tube head 16 is connected to one end of the tube body 15, the tube head 16 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, and the end face teeth 5 are provided on the end of the tube head 16.

[0051] As Figures 2 to 7 shown, a ring groove 17 is provided on the outer peripheral portion of the tube head 16 and is recessed radially inward;

[0052] A clamping block portion 18 is provided on the housing 1 and protrudes radially inward and is fitted and clamped in the ring groove 17, so that the tube head 16 can be rotatably connected to the housing 1.

[0053] As Figure 6 , 7 shown, the tube head 16 may include two semi-cylinders 19;

[0054] A first groove portion 20 recessed radially inward and a first boss portion 21 protruding radially outward are provided on the outer wall of the tube body 15;

[0055] A second boss portion 22 adapted to the first groove portion 20 and a second groove portion 23 adapted to the first boss portion 21 are provided on the inner wall of the semi-cylinder 19;

[0056] The two semi-cylinders 19 are wrapped and connected to one end of the tube body 15, and the first boss portion 21 is clamped in the second groove portion 23 and the second boss portion 22 is clamped in the first groove portion 20;

[0057] A positioning boss 24 is provided on the inner wall of the semi-cylinder 19, and a positioning hole 25 corresponding to the positioning boss 24 one by one is provided on the tube body 15. The positioning boss 24 is clamped in the positioning hole 25 to limit the circumferential position between the tube body 15 and the tube head 16; specifically, a part of the ring groove 17 is provided on each of the two semi-cylinders 19, and part of the end face teeth 5 are provided on each of the two semi-cylinders 19.

[0058] As Figure 1 , 3As shown, the housing 1 includes a left housing 26 and a right housing 27. The left housing 26 and the right housing 27 are detachably connected, and a part of the latch portion 18 is provided on each of the left housing 26 and the right housing 27.

[0059] In summary, when the angle of the sleeve 2 needs to be adjusted, first release the position locking of the locking member 3 by the limit locking mechanism 4 so that the locking member 3 can slide freely. Then rotate the sleeve 2 to the required angle. When the sleeve 2 rotates, the groove wall of the tooth groove 6 abuts against the engaging portion 7 and can push the locking member 3 to move away from the sleeve 2, thereby enabling the engaging portion 7 to withdraw from the tooth groove 6. After the sleeve 2 rotates to the required angle, slide the locking member 3 towards the sleeve 2 until it is in place, so that the engaging portion 7 snaps into the tooth groove 6. Then lock the position of the locking member 3 through the limit locking mechanism 4, thereby restricting the engaging portion 7 from withdrawing from the tooth groove 6. At this time, the engaging portion 7 remains in the tooth groove 6, making the sleeve 2 unable to rotate, and thus limiting the angular position of the sleeve 2. The embodiment of the present application can adjust the angle of the sleeve 2 relative to the housing 1 according to the surgical needs, greatly improving the convenience of use.
