Specific embodiments

[0029] Next, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0030] As Figures 1-6 shown, an arthroscopic composite plasma knife includes a handle 6 and a hook-shaped electrode knife head 1 and a horseshoe-shaped electrode knife head 18 mounted above the handle 6. The handle 6 is a quasi-elliptical cavity structure and can also be designed into a cavity structure of other shapes according to needs. Upper and lower mounting holes are respectively provided in the upper and lower parts of the handle 6. The upper mounting hole is matched with the cylindrical knife body shell 3, and the lower part of the knife body shell 3 is fixedly bonded to the top of the upper mounting hole of the handle 6 through a fixing glue 15; the lower mounting hole is matched with the inner suction tube 8 and the power supply cable 7. The top ends of the inner suction tube 8 and the power supply cable 7 pass through the lower mounting hole and are connected into the internal cavity structure of the handle 6.

[0031] The handle 6 has a detachable structure and is symmetrically formed by snapping together a pair of handle housings 10 with a snap-fit structure. Inside the handle housings 10, two parallel support bars 17 are fixedly arranged up and down. The two support bars 17 are symmetrically adjacent to each other in a pair of handle housings 10. After the pair of handle housings 10 are snapped together, the adjacent side surfaces of the adjacent pair of support bars 17 are closely attached to each other. The lower end of the microminiature lead screw motor is fixedly installed by screws on the upper surface of the left end of one of the lower support bars 17. On the adjacent side surfaces of the upper pair of support bars 17, semi-circular grooves I are symmetrically opened. After the handle housings 10 are snapped together, the pair of semi-circular grooves I form a circular groove I, and the upper end of the lead screw motor is fixedly installed in the circular groove I. The lower pair of support bars 17 play a role in supporting and fixing the bottom end of the lead screw motor, and the circular groove I plays a role in limiting the upper end of the lead screw motor, ensuring the reliable and stable installation of the lead screw motor. On the adjacent side surfaces of the middle parts of the two support bars 17 up and down, semi-circular grooves II are symmetrically opened. After the handle housings 10 are snapped together, the pair of semi-circular grooves II form a circular groove II, and the inner suction tube 8 is fixedly installed in the circular groove II. The circular groove II plays a role in fixing and limiting the inner suction tube 8. On the adjacent side surfaces of the right ends of the two support bars 17 up and down, semi-circular grooves III are symmetrically opened. After the handle housings 10 are snapped together, the pair of semi-circular grooves III form a circular groove III 16, and the power supply cable 7 is fixedly installed in the circular groove III 16. The circular groove III 16 plays a role in fixing and limiting the power supply cable 7. The snap-fit structure can be correspondingly arranged on one or two pairs of support bars 17.

[0032] The motor output shaft of the lead screw motor is fixedly connected with a rotating lead screw 11, and a lifting seat 12 is rotationally and movably installed by being threadedly connected to the outer circumference of the rotating lead screw 11. The lifting seat 12 is made of insulating material. An internal threaded hole matching the rotating lead screw 11 is formed on one side (the left side in the figure) of the lifting seat 12, and a through hole is formed on the other side (the right side in the figure) of the lifting seat 12. After the lower end portion with an external thread of the connecting pipe 13 penetrates through the through hole, the connecting pipe 13 is fixedly installed on the lifting seat 12 by a pair of nuts located on the upper and lower sides of the lifting seat 12. The upper end portion of the connecting pipe 13 extends into the insulating pipe 9 to limit the circumferential rotation of the lifting seat 12, so that the lifting seat 12 can only move up and down relative to the rotating lead screw 11, thereby driving the connecting pipe 13 to move up and down. A limiting plate is provided at the top end of the rotating lead screw 11 to prevent the lifting seat 12 from disengaging from the upper end of the rotating lead screw 11. The lead screw motor is a forward and reverse rotation motor, and the lead screw motor is provided with a lead screw forward rotation button 5 and a lead screw reverse rotation button 27. One ends of the lead screw forward rotation button 5 (the "+" key in the figure) and the lead screw reverse rotation button 27 (the "-" key in the figure) respectively penetrate through the handle housing 10 and are exposed for easy pressing. The other ends of the lead screw forward rotation button 5 and the lead screw reverse rotation button 27 are respectively electrically connected to the lead screw motor. The lead screw forward rotation button 5 exposed on the handle housing 10 is located above the lead screw reverse rotation button 27. The button design can quickly and conveniently control the forward and reverse rotation of the lead screw motor. The lead screw motor adopts servo control technology to ensure the accurate control of the telescopic stroke of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1. The lead screw motor with forward and reverse rotation functions is an existing product. In the embodiment of the present invention, only the up and down movement of the lifting seat 12 and the connecting pipe 13 is realized through the lead screw motor, and the structure of the lead screw motor is not an innovation point, so it will not be described in detail here. The connecting pipe 13 is made of hard insulating material, and the hard insulating material can ensure the smooth up and down movement of the connecting pipe 13 in the insulating pipe 9 and the insulating performance. The lead screw motor can use an external power supply or an internal battery.

[0033] The tool body tube shell 3 is made of metal material, and the upper end portion of the tool body tube shell 3 is designed as a bent structure with a certain degree of curvature, which can facilitate surgical operations. The tool body tube shell 3 is essentially a loop electrode. The lower end of the tool body tube shell 3 is connected to a power supply through a power line cable 7. The tool body tube shell 3 respectively forms a plasma excitation loop with the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 (working electrode one) and the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 (working electrode two). The tool body tube shell 3 is equivalent to an external electrode, and the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 and the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 are equivalent to internal electrodes. The internal electrodes are used to excite plasma. This is the prior art, and the principle will not be described in detail here. To ensure safety after power-on, the outer circumference of the lower end portion of the tool body tube shell 3 (a section between the bent structure and the upper end of the handle housing 10) is wrapped with an insulating layer 4, and the bent structure at the upper end portion of the tool body tube shell 3 is not wrapped with insulating material.

[0034] An insulating tube 9 is sleeved on the inner peripheral surface of the blade tube shell 3. The upper end portion of the insulating tube 9 is a bent structure that matches the upper end portion of the blade tube shell 3. The outer peripheral surface of the insulating tube 9 is in interference fit with the inner peripheral surface of the blade tube shell 3 and is integrally connected by fitting. In order to make the connection between the blade tube shell 3 and the insulating tube 9 more firm, glue can also be used to bond and fix the insulating tube 9 and the blade tube shell 3 into one body.

[0035] The insulating tube 9 is made of an insulating material with a certain toughness. The inner circumference of the insulating tube 9 is a multi-chamber tube with a special-shaped structure. The inside of the insulating tube 9 is a second installation cavity 25. The inner suction tube 8 and the power cable 7 both pass through the second installation cavity 25. On one side of the second installation cavity 25 (the left side in the figure), an auxiliary insulating tube is integrally formed. The inside of the auxiliary insulating tube is a first installation cavity 23. The diameter of the first installation cavity 23 is smaller than the radius of the second installation cavity 25. The inner diameter of the auxiliary insulating tube is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the connecting tube 13. There is a slight gap between the inner circumference of the auxiliary insulating tube and the outer circumference of the connecting tube 13. The size of the gap should enable the connecting tube 13 to move smoothly up and down in the auxiliary insulating tube. The inside of the connecting tube 13 is a wiring hole 14. The lower end portion of the hook-shaped electrode blade head 1 is inserted into the top end of the wiring hole 14. The upper end portion of the power cable 7 passes through the wiring hole 14 and is electrically connected to the lower end portion of the hook-shaped electrode blade head 1. The lower end portion of the power cable 7 is connected to a power source to energize the hook-shaped electrode blade head 1.

[0036] A fixing seat 19 with a cylindrical structure is sleeved on the inner circumference of the bent structure at the upper end portion of the blade tube shell 3. The fixing seat 19 is made of an insulating material, such as ceramic, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc. The outer diameter of the fixing seat 19 matches the inner diameter of the bent structure at the head of the blade tube shell 3, and the two are connected by interference fit or bonded and fixed with glue. A sealing gasket 22 is provided at the bottom end of the fixing seat 19. The sealing gasket 22 is made of a heat-resistant rubber material.

[0037] The inner circumference of the tube wall of the fixing seat 19 is a suction hole 21. The suction hole 21 is a stepped hole that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The inner diameter of the bottom stepped hole of the suction hole 21 matches the outer diameter of the top end of the inner suction tube 8. The inner circumference of the bottom stepped hole of the suction hole 21 is in contact with the outer circumference of the top end of the inner suction tube 8 and is connected by interference fit or bonded and fixed with glue. The bottom end of the inner suction tube 8 passes through the lower installation hole and extends out from inside the handle 6, and is connected to a container for containing surgical waste liquid.

[0038] The lower surface of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 is provided with a plurality of electrode pins 24. A plurality of second mounting holes 26 in the vertical direction and mating with the electrode pins 24 are provided on the tube wall of the fixing seat 19. The lower ends of the electrode pins 24 pass through the second mounting holes 26 and are electrically connected to the upper end of the power supply cable 7. The lower end of the power supply cable 7 passes through the handle 6 and is connected to a power source. The horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 is powered through the power supply cable 7 and the electrode pins 24. The electrode pins 24 located inside the second mounting holes 26 can also play a role in fixing and limiting the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18.

[0039] A first mounting hole 20 corresponding to the position of the insulating tube 9 is provided on the tube wall of the fixing seat 19. The lower end of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 passes through the first mounting hole 20 and is inserted into the insulating tube 9. The first mounting hole 20 plays a role in guiding and limiting the hook-shaped electrode tip 1. The upper port of the first mounting hole 20 is connected to the upper end of the suction hole 21 in a vertical through structure. The through structure can ensure that the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 moves downward in place, so that the top of the retracted hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is lower than the top of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18. The bottom surface of the through structure is a slope structure, which slopes from the first mounting hole 20 to the suction hole 21 from top to bottom. The slope structure facilitates the inhalation of surgical waste liquid into the suction hole 21.

[0040] The fixing seat 19 is provided with the first mounting hole 20 and the second mounting hole 26, which can reliably insulate the electrode pins 24 of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 and the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 located therein from the inner wall of the blade body tube shell 3.

[0041] The sealing gasket 22 is provided with sealing gasket through holes corresponding to the first mounting hole 20, the second mounting hole 26 and the suction hole 21. The hook-shaped electrode tip 1, the electrode pins 24 and the inner suction tube 8 all pass through the corresponding sealing gasket through holes. The sealing gasket 22 can prevent surgical waste liquid from flowing into the insulating tube 9. At the same time, the sealing gasket 22 can play a role in limiting the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 and the electrode pins 24.

[0042] The horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 is arranged on the upper end surface of the fixing seat 19, and the electrode pins 24 pass through the second mounting holes 26 of the fixing seat 19 to fix the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18. The horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 is provided with a discontinuous groove corresponding to the position of the first mounting hole 20. The discontinuous groove can make the top of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 drop to be lower than the top of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18, so as to maximize the ablation area of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18.

[0043] Furthermore, a concave connecting frame 28 can be arranged at the middle position of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18. After the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 drops to the lowest position, the end of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is lapped on the connecting frame 28, and the connecting frame 28 plays a role in supporting and limiting the hook-shaped electrode tip 1.

[0044] Furthermore, a convex structure can be welded at the position on the lower surface of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 corresponding to the electrode pin 24. The convex structure corresponds to the second mounting hole 26, which can make the installation of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 more stable.

[0045] The head of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is a scythe-shaped electrode wire, which can be made of a rigid metal conductive material. In order to ensure the smoothness when the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 passes through the bending structure of the blade body shell 3 and the insulating tube 9, the lower part of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 corresponding to the bending structure is made of a conductive material with good flexibility (such as nitinol), and the two materials are welded together.

[0046] The arthroscopic composite plasma knife of the embodiment of the present invention mainly has the following technical characteristics:

[0047] 1. The present invention can drive the rotating lead screw 11 to rotate forward or backward through the lead screw motor with forward and reverse functions. When the rotating lead screw 11 rotates forward, the lifting seat 12 and the connecting pipe 13 can move upward, and when the rotating lead screw 11 rotates backward, the lifting seat 12 and the connecting pipe 13 can move downward, so that the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 installed in the connecting pipe 13 can be automatically telescopically transformed to complete different surgical operations.

[0048] 2. The blade body shell 3 is a metal tube, which is wrapped with an insulating layer 4 on the outside and is provided with an insulating tube 9 matching its inner diameter inside to ensure safe use. The insulating tube 9 is a multi-chamber tube, which respectively includes a first mounting chamber 23 and a second mounting chamber 25. The hook-shaped electrode tip 1 and the connecting pipe 13 are fixedly connected in the first mounting chamber 23. The inner diameter of the first mounting chamber 23 matches the connecting pipe 13 to play a guiding role and ensure the stable telescopic movement of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1.

[0049] 3. The hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is located at the disconnected groove of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18. A concave connecting frame 28 is arranged at the center of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 to provide a lifting space for the hook-shaped electrode tip 1; the electrode pin 24 is led out from below the convex structure of the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18. Through the structural design of the mutual cooperation between the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 and the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18, the working area of the suction hole 21 is ensured, and the ablation area after the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 is electrified and the smooth lifting of the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 are ensured.

[0050] The operation steps of the arthroscopic composite plasma knife of the embodiment of the present invention are as follows:

[0051] When precise cutting of the lateral patellar retinaculum is required during minimally invasive surgery: Press the forward rotation button 5 of the lead screw on the handle 6. The lead screw motor drives the lead screw to rotate forward, causing the lifting seat 12 and the connecting pipe 13 to rise, synchronously driving the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 on the connecting pipe 13 to rise and extend outward. After the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 reaches the working position, the lead screw motor automatically stops running, and the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 maintains the extended length. Energize the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 to precisely cut the lateral patellar retinaculum.

[0052] When soft tissue cutting or tissue ablation is required during minimally invasive surgery: If the arthroscopic composite plasma knife is in the initial state, that is, the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is in the hidden position, it can be directly used; if the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 is in the extended position after just cutting the lateral patellar retinaculum, at this time, press the reverse rotation button 27 of the lead screw on the handle 6. The lead screw motor drives the lead screw to rotate in reverse, causing the lifting seat 12 and the connecting pipe 13 to descend, synchronously driving the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 on the connecting pipe 13 to descend and retract. After the hook-shaped electrode tip 1 contracts to the initial position, the lead screw motor stops running. Energize the horseshoe-shaped electrode tip 18 to perform soft tissue cutting or tissue ablation, and the surgical waste liquid generated enters the container for containing the surgical waste liquid through the absorption holes 21.
